Ye Chen also took out his sword under the crowd’s tense gazes. He positioned his sword at an impossible angle.
Moreover, Ye Chen’s sword light was extremely thin, it was the simple type that represented the peak of sharpness.
Crush!
Li Kuang’s first sword was parried off and flew back without achieving anything. But, he didn’t really mind it, he wanted to use his second sword to completely suppress his opponent.
But to his surprise, Ye Chen started his counter-attack
“[Reach the pinnacle]!”
[The Lone Peak of Thirteen Swords] was just a top rank mortal level skill in the hands of other swordsmen, but the power of the strike when used by Ye Chen was a few times greater. The sword point was headed straight towards Li Kuang’s chest.
This forced Li Kuang to step back and use the back of his sword to defend himself.
Ye Chen quickly took this opportunity and continued attacking Li Kuang with his sword skill.
Ye Chen’s eyes were sharp as he moved his wrist, a sword light that was overlapped layer upon layer in a small range quickly headed towards Li Kuang.
“ What?” The sword light that descended towards Li Kuang was like a mountain. As the mountain range transformed into a mountain peak, it made a huge impact in his mind.
Li Kuang couldn’t defend the hard strikes and jumped high to avoid the hits. He tried to take back the initiative by cleaving downwards at Ye Chen.
Chang! Chang! Chang!.....
When both the swords came in contact with each other, there were sparks flying everywhere. The shockwaves disturbed and damaged everything in their surroundings.
Their moves were just too swift, most of the audience couldn’t even see them clearly.
“What a great battle between these two swordsmen! Every single strike can take their life if they can’t react fast enough!”
“Ye Chen performed well by defending against Li Kuang’s first strike easily, he is even able to hold the initiative in the battle!”
In the audience, Pei Shaoqing and Qiu Ruotong were standing together.
Qiu Ruotong said, “Seems like your friend is in danger.”
Suddenly, Pei Shaoqing laughed confidently, “Hah! Don’t judge a book by its cover! Li Kuang’s ability and skill improved a lot within this year, I expect that he will defeat Ye Chen with his 7th sword. He only the used 3rd sword of the Ghost Sword Skill until now.”
“But I think Ye Chen also hasn’t gone all out yet.”
Li Kuang took a few steps back after landing. He then said, “I admit, you are indeed eligible to make me go all out, but it’s impossible for you to defeat me! It’s time to show you my actual strength!”
Li Kuang stepped forward as he was slowly surrounded with a huge dark wave. His black sword shone with a horrific light.
“Soul Drain!”
This time, Li Kuang did not hold back. He knew that the skills below the seventh sword would not be able to hurt Ye Chen at all. Only the seventh sword would be able to defeat him to the extent that he would have no ability to fight back.
The huge dark wave approached Ye Chen along with the black sword. Ye Chen wasn’t afraid of it. He closed his eyes, and when he reopened, his gaze resembled sword light. It was like a few streaks of lightning tearing through the void.
“Break through!” When Ye Chen swung his sword, all the nearby inner disciples were frightened. Their swords sheathed at their waist started to vibrate, it felt as if they wanted to unsheath themselves to integrate with Ye Chen’s sword strike.
An elder exclaimed loudly, “Sword intent! This is unexpectedly sword intent, how can this be?”
