Chapter 64

Xiao Tang is about to go and collect his boxed meal again.

Number 4 faces off against Number 7.

Number 4 comes from the Li family, wielding a sword, while Number 7 comes from the Zhao family, wielding a saber.

The saber and the sword clash once more.

The sword technique is exquisite, and the saber technique is fierce. Both combatants use middle-grade human-level martial arts and have cultivated them to the minor accomplishment stage, making their techniques very powerful.

After a brief but intense battle, both have exhausted their moves. In the end, Li Tukai from the Li family seizes a momentary opportunity and defeats Zhao Mian from the Zhao family.

Next, Number 5 faces off against Number 6.

Number 5 is Wang Shenglei from the Wang family, one of the five major families, and the second brother of Wang Shenghong, one of the Five Young Heroes of Fengwu. He is at the peak of the sixth level of the Blood Qi Realm and excels in fist techniques. Number 6 is Li Zhen Shi.

Tang Junluo and Chen Zong have won, while Zhao Wangcheng has been defeated. Among the Four Young Heroes of Fengwu, only Li Zhen Shi has yet to take the stage. His expression is calm, but he feels some pressure inside.

Li Zhen Shi's sword technique is elegant, worthy of the name "famous sword." It is like a gentle breeze, making people feel comfortable. The sword light is hidden within, and without realizing it, it defeats the opponent and takes their life.

Wang Shenglei's fist technique is powerful, each punch like a boulder rolling down a mountain. Combined with the strength released from his peak sixth-level Blood Qi Realm cultivation, it is extremely terrifying.

The wind seems to be everywhere, and wherever the wind goes, the sword light follows.

However, Wang Shenglei's fists are very stable, like boulders rolling down, one punch after another, solid and steady. No matter how the wind blows, he remains unmoved.

Li Zhen Shi's cultivation is ultimately at a clear disadvantage compared to Wang Shenglei, making it difficult to find any weaknesses. The match turns into a war of attrition.

"Break!"

After a hard-fought battle, Wang Shenglei, with his higher cultivation and greater endurance, seizes a momentary opportunity and unleashes a burst of Blood Qi with a powerful punch.

Lower-grade human-level martial art: Boulder Break!

The punch is like a massive boulder falling from the sky, carrying an incredibly terrifying momentum, directly targeting the gentle breeze.

Li Zhen Shi has no choice but to hold his treasured iron sword in front of him to defend against the punch.

The punch strikes the sword, causing it to bend instantly and hit Li Zhen Shi's chest. With a loud thud, Li Zhen Shi is forced to retreat, his Blood Qi shaking. Wang Shenglei seizes the opportunity and delivers another punch.

It is clear that Wang Shenglei has rich combat experience and is a steady and methodical fighter. Such an opponent is difficult to defeat unless you can overwhelm him with absolute power or find a clear weakness. The longer the fight drags on, the more disadvantageous it becomes.

Especially when there is a clear gap in cultivation.

Li Zhen Shi is ultimately defeated.

Five people remain on the large arena.

Tang Juhe, Tang Junluo, Chen Zong, Li Tukai, and Wang Shenglei.

"Five of you are left. Is anyone willing to withdraw?" Qin Xinshi scans them and asks.

None of the five move. With the top three within reach, none are willing to withdraw.

"Good. Since no one wants to withdraw, we will determine the rankings," Qin Xinshi nods. "You five will take turns fighting to determine the final top three."

The first match is between Tang Juhe and Tang Junluo.

For some reason, they did not fight, as Tang Juhe directly conceded.

The second match is between Tang Junluo and Chen Zong.

"Chen Zong, this is our third battle. This time, I will defeat you," Tang Junluo's eyes flash with determination as he looks at Chen Zong, his fighting spirit soaring.

"Perhaps not," Chen Zong smiles, his demeanor calm.

"Maybe not!" Tang Junluo laughs loudly, his heroic spirit evident. He grips his spear with both hands and shakes it, the cold light like flying stars, the spear moving like a dragon, emerging from the depths, unleashing its greatest power, and charging at Chen Zong.

The terrifying sound of the wind being split is like a storm, making people's scalps tingle, and the pressure is overwhelming, making it hard to breathe.

The sword light shines, swift as wind and thunder, a single strike shattering the pressure and piercing toward Tang Junluo.

This is their third confrontation.

The first was a draw, the second was won by Chen Zong, and the third?

The Subtle Dragon Spear Technique, at the Subtle level, is even more refined in Tang Junluo's hands, each strike more powerful, like a golden dragon dancing and circling, all aimed at Chen Zong.

The five foundation-level sword techniques, including Residual Image, Willow Sweep, Eagle Strike, Flash Lightning, and True Sword Eight Stances, are all performed by Chen Zong. Different sword techniques and moves are alternated, thrusting, pointing, slashing, and collapsing, continuously breaking through the spear light, suppressing Tang Junluo, making his movements increasingly restricted.

The spear is a long weapon, suitable for charging and breaking through formations, and for fighting multiple opponents. For single combat, it requires a high level of skill; otherwise, its essence cannot be fully utilized.

The sword, on the other hand, is more suitable for single combat, especially close-quarters combat.

Chen Zong's sword technique is highly skilled, and once he gets close, Tang Junluo is immediately at a disadvantage.

Using the Dragon Step, Tang Junluo quickly retreats, his body like a dragon, while his spear strikes out, the spear light like countless stars, all aimed at Chen Zong, but each is shattered by Chen Zong's sword, turning into nothingness.

"Chen Zong, take this spear..." Tang Junluo shouts, his Blood Qi bursting forth. The golden dragon-patterned spear trembles, the patterns seeming to be stained with blood, releasing a terrifying aura, and he delivers a powerful strike: "Dragon in the Sky!"

The blood-colored patterns on the spear seem to come to life, a dragon's roar echoing as the entire spear transforms into a golden dragon, rising into the sky, like a dragon in the heavens.

The Li family's middle-grade human-level martial art: Dragon Spear Technique, first level!

This strike, Tang Junluo has cultivated to the peak of minor accomplishment, just a step away from major accomplishment.

The strike is extremely fierce, combining Tang Junluo's own strength and Blood Qi, making it even more terrifying. The golden dragon is brilliant, dazzling to the eye.

"Light Splitting, Shadowless!"

Chen Zong's Blood Qi also bursts forth, eight sword lights shining, blinding to look at, and instantly converging into one, so brilliant that even a Strength Realm martial artist like Qin Xinshi has to squint to avoid discomfort.

A single sword strike, the terrifying sword light collides with the golden dragon. The sword light seems to be able to split anything, and the golden dragon is shattered without resistance.

The peak of minor accomplishment for "Dragon in the Sky" is indeed very powerful, clearly surpassing the major accomplishment of the first level of lower-grade human-level martial arts. Compared to the perfect stage, it is not far behind, and its cultivation difficulty is naturally higher.

The Dragon Spear Technique is a martial art that emphasizes attack, but the first level of the Light Splitting Sword Technique does not, focusing more on dazzling light.

However, the second level of the Light Splitting Sword Technique combines the sword light, greatly increasing its power.

Shattering the golden dragon, it is unstoppable.

Tang Junluo's face changes drastically, and he quickly holds his spear in front of him to defend against the sword.

The sound of metal clashing reverberates, piercing and unbearable. The terrifying sword strike forces Tang Junluo to retreat step by step.

The arena is large, making it hard to fall off, but Chen Zong steps closer, his body like a breeze, the sword light flickering, making it impossible for Tang Junluo to judge. He can only勉强挥动长枪环绕周身防御，却感到身上各处连续遭受攻击，倒退的脚步根本无法停止。

连续几剑轻轻拍击在唐君罗身上，用力巧妙，并未受伤，陈宗蓦然收剑站立。

唐君罗停下脚步，长枪依旧在手，但他知道，自己输了。

又一次输了。

论修为，自己不逊色陈宗，论武学品级，更胜过陈宗，论力量，也胜过陈宗，为何会败？

一时间，唐君罗有些看不清。

“事不过三，第四次，我一定要击败你。”唐君罗深吸一口气对陈宗说道。

失败不可怕，可怕的是失败后，毫无斗志，唐君罗不会，他依然斗志满满。

第三场，李图开与王胜磊对决。

王胜磊依然是稳扎稳打的风格，李图开实力不错，但不占优势，最后还是以微弱之差，败于王胜磊拳下。

第四场，唐具合对决陈宗。

唐具合所修炼的功法枪法都与唐君罗一样，但唐君罗施展出的枪法，有一种如君王亲临的感觉，尽管还很淡，却初具雏形。

唐具合所施展出来的枪法，则有一种马上将军冲锋陷阵的感觉。

与唐君罗相比，唐具合的枪法，要显得老辣一些，并且看过陈宗与唐君罗之间的一战之后，明白不能给陈宗抓住机会，一枪紧接着一枪不断刺出，连贯不绝，丝毫不给陈宗机会。

陈宗挥剑，脚步站在原地不曾动过，唯独身形晃动如拂柳摇曳，击碎一道道的枪影，循着一丝缝隙破绽，直接杀出。

若是不动，或许破绽难寻，但一动，破绽必定会出现，陈宗岂有放过之理。

剑剑反击，几门入微之境的剑法交替施展，变幻莫测，上一剑还光影交替，下一剑就变得凌厉，再一剑变得柔韧，不同的风格，让唐具合亲身体会时，有一种跟不上的感觉。

唐具合不得不爆发气血之力，施展出飞龙枪法飞龙在天，一往无前的沙场气息弥漫开去，陈宗也施展出分光无影，一剑击溃。

第五场，唐君罗对决李图开。

最后，唐君罗以微弱之势落败，李图开虽然胜了，却一点都不轻松。

第六场，王胜磊对决唐具合。

王胜磊又一次发挥自己的长处，将唐具合击败。

第七场的对决，正是陈宗与李图开。

剑与剑的对决。

每一场战斗都是一次消耗，尤其是施展品级武学，气血之力的消耗最为明显。

如陈宗至今已经施展过两次分光无影，一身气血之力，只能再施展一次。

李图开也同样如此，也只有再施展一次品级武学的气血之力。

纵然对方的修为不如自己，李图开也不敢有丝毫的轻视之心，相反，他对陈宗无比重视，一上大擂台便摆出清风剑法起手式，双眸紧紧盯着陈宗，却不主动出击。

陈宗一步一步走向李图开，曾经以天光云影剑一剑斩杀气血境七层武者的他，与李图开相比，信心更强，哪怕气血之力所剩不多，但气势却不会有丝毫的下降。
