Chapter 70

And the speed of his sword strikes was even faster.

This scoundrel, did he actually break through during the battle?

My [Nine Heavens Meteor] technique not only failed to defeat this scoundrel but instead helped him break through?

Shen Fei felt as if he had eaten shit.

Such a guy who breaks through at any moment in battle really deserves to be cut into a thousand pieces.

Clang, clang, clang!

The Meteor Sword Technique was unleashed, with a sky full of cold light flashing and dancing.

Shen Fei unleashed all his strength without any reservation.

He now only wanted to defeat Lin Beichen, and he no longer cared whether he would violate the rules of the preliminary competition by seriously injuring Lin Beichen.

But this time, Lin Beichen was completely able to keep up with his opponent's rhythm.

Especially the trajectory of the Taiyi Sword, which he could now clearly capture with his vision, as if it were a dynamic vision, making high-speed moving objects appear in slow motion.

Even better, his body's reaction could finally keep up with his thoughts and vision.

Before the breakthrough, it was like using the Geely Emgrand's traction engine.

Now, it was like the Ferrari's super engine.

Mind and body as one.

Clang, clang, clang!

The long swords continuously collided.

Shen Fei's expression became increasingly serious.

The counterforce kept coming.

And as time passed, this counterforce became stronger and stronger.

What did this mean?

It meant that Lin Beichen's strength was rapidly increasing.

If the battle continued...

"Nine Heavens Meteor!"

Shen Fei shouted, unleashing his killing move.

Intense heat once again swept in all directions, the Taiyi Sword seeming to be red-hot, the blade glowing a translucent orange-yellow. The air around the blade swirled as if it were burning, emitting wisps of blue smoke and distorting the vision.

This time, it was his all-out attack.

No longer holding back even a bit.

"Good move."

Lin Beichen shouted, his eyes wide open.

His mental focus was highly concentrated.

At the critical moment, his thoughts were exceptionally clear, and his vision was unprecedentedly clear. Not only did he capture the trajectory of the Taiyi Sword, but he even saw the subtle, hidden hot mystic energy's trajectory.

Basic sword technique, close-range three strikes!

Instantly executed.

Clang, clang, clang!

A thrust.

A break.

The first two strikes directly blocked the [Nine Heavens Meteor] sword technique.

For the third strike, he did not use it but directly transformed it into the hidden killing move [Beidou Lin].

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh

(To be continued, please turn the page)

!

Seven shadows from one sword!

The sound of dense sword strikes echoed.

It was like a sudden thunderstorm and a fierce wind.

"Let go!"

Lin Beichen roared like a mad lion.

The sound was like rolling thunder.

Clang, clang, clang, clang!

Dense sword strikes.

Whoosh!

The Taiyi Sword flew into the air, spinning and landing, and with a clang, it was embedded in the sand in front of Li Tao and Tao Wancheng.

A muffled groan.

Shen Fei staggered backward.

His face was shocked, his left hand gripping his right wrist, and blood trickled from the tiger's mouth of his right hand.

Silence all around.

All the other students, except for Lin Chen, looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Especially Li Tao and Tao Wancheng, looking at Shen Fei's bleeding tiger's mouth and the Taiyi Sword embedded in the sand in front of them, found it hard to believe what they saw.

Yue Hongxiang covered her mouth, afraid of screaming.

It was too incredible.

An incredible comeback.

Lin Beichen's arms were bulging with veins, like gnarled old tree roots, crisscrossing and intertwining. The tendons in his hands were also prominently raised, but his hands firmly held the Virtue Sword, even as the sword continued to vibrate at high speed, like a mad black snake trying to break free.

"Huff, huff... I..."

He panted heavily, his lungs like bellows, looking at the sword in his hand and then at the Taiyi Sword embedded in the ground ten meters away. After a brief moment of shock, he threw his head back and laughed loudly: "Haha, I... I won?"

Shen Fei's sword had almost nailed him into the sand, and in that instant, Lin Beichen had burst out with all his strength, using [Beidou Lin] to directly confront [Nine Heavens Meteor].

The immense pressure in that instant was like a mountain rock falling from the sky, smashing onto the Virtue Sword. If he hadn't gritted his teeth and held on, the sword might have flown out of his hand.

It felt as if his arm bones had been shattered.

His spine and legs were also in intense pain.

But it didn't matter.

Because he felt that something inside him, some chains, some restraints, had been completely shattered.

So, he was still standing.

His hands still firmly held the sword.

And Shen Fei was pushed back and had lost his sword.

The battle was over.

Lin Beichen wanted to laugh, to laugh loudly, to laugh wildly.

For him, this was undoubtedly a profound and cleansing experience for a swordsman's heart.

When he had initially tried to stop Shen Fei, he was undoubtedly trying to buy some time for Lin Chen to quickly stop the bleeding and recover his fighting strength. From the beginning, he never thought he would defeat a genius like Shen Fei.

But the more he fought, the more he got into the heat of the battle.

He held on and, in the end, won.

The feeling of battle in that instant was like a slight intoxication, making him a bit dazed.

It was a bit like...

Like when, in his previous life, he had played a game for hours and finally defeated a boss at the end of a level, giving him a sense of satisfaction.

"How about it, am I good enough?"

Lin Beichen regulated his breathing and smiled at Lin Chen.

The intense battle had left him with a shattered body and disheveled hair, but this smile, far from making him look disheveled, gave him a particularly handsome and heroic appearance, making his already strikingly handsome face even more captivating.

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Very good."

This was not flattery.

It was really very good.

Lin Beichen's persistence and resilience in this battle were enough to move anyone.

Although it was unclear how he managed to stay standing in such a fierce storm, this young man had used his flesh and blood to block the enemy, using his broad back to shield his opponent, which was enough to move anyone.

An ordinary person...

No, an ordinary genius, could absolutely not do this.

This was sincere praise from Lin Chen, the great demon of Yunmeng City.

"Hehe."

Lin Beichen laughed.

Then, at this moment, a loud, clear sound suddenly rang in his mind without any warning—

Ding!

It was the notification sound of his phone system.

Lin Beichen was startled, then secretly overjoyed.

It must be that some function of his phone had activated again.

But his hands were too shaky, and it wasn't convenient to check his phone right there.

Lin Beichen pretended nothing had happened, looked at Shen Fei, and said, "You lost, do you admit it?"

I've updated three chapters in one go because it's a battle scene.

Thank you to the readers 56584897, Ding Mingya, Qianlong Hou, Xiao Yuchen, Ren Paizheng Zhu Paizhuang, Yongheng Bu bian V, 57427488, Guanjue Qunxiong, Xiao Si, Yuluo Xingping, Sami Baba, and Jimo Donglai for your generous support and donations.

Additionally, in response to your feedback, everyone thinks the chapters are too short... This is because the book's pacing is trying to change. Each chapter is over 2000 words, and I'm trying to see if this can speed up the plot. It's an experiment, with about 6600 words per day, slightly more than before... I'll feel out the pacing, and in the first month after the book goes live, I can have a burst of updates. I'll prepare in advance.

Recently, I've been participating in a very embarrassing and strange activity in Beijing, getting up at five in the morning and returning to the hotel around midnight, so I've been writing at night.
