Chapter 1290 - 1287: Two and a Half Moves, a Certain Defeat!

"Chaos Sky Four Thunder Style!"

"Sky King Sword!"

Within the eyes of the crowd, the four short spears behind Cao Li vanished into thin air, and when they reappeared, they were above Jian Wuji’s head, transforming into a thunderbolt the size of a house, crashing down fiercely on Jian Wuji, where it passed, the air fiercely twisting, forming a vacuum area.

On the other side, the Sword Intent around Jian Wuji reached its peak, as he slashed down with a sword, the True Yuan within his body exploded forth, the giant illusory sword in the void became substantial, heading towards the thunderbolt.

Boom!

The dazzling thunderbolt and the golden giant sword clashed, as if a lightning bolt exploded, the whole valley slight trembled, the resulting shock wave rampaged wildly, the water flow burst into great waves, and the remaining Qi Force continued shooting towards the surrounding audience.

The audience with slightly stronger abilities all stepped forward, launching Qi Force fragments to smash the incoming shockwaves.

Luo Feng flicked his finger, shattering a fierce Qi Force rushing here, his gaze looking towards the platform.

Boom!

Above the platform in the void, two fierce forces tangled in combat, every collision spread out circles of transparent ripples.

In the next moment, the giant golden sword, over ten meters tall and three to four meters wide, cracked inch by inch, finally exploded with a boom.

Boom!

The thunder light fell beside Jian Wuji, blasting a large pit with a diameter of over ten meters on the platform, Jian Wuji’s figure shook, he spat out blood, forced to step back a few steps, face pale.

In the middle of the pit, were four short spears embedded, still leaping with arcs of purple electricity, the nearby ground charred black.

"Jian Wuji’s Sky King Sword was so easily defeated!"

"In just one year, Jian Wuji couldn’t even withstand three moves in front of Cao Li. No wonder he’s the number one in the Six Northern Domains."

"During the New Dragon Ranking Tournament, Luo Feng spent a great amount of effort to break Jian Wuji’s Sky King Sword. But now it’s so easily crushed by Cao Li."

"Hmm. It seems the overall outcome of this New Dragon Ranking Tournament has been decided."

Watching the scene on the platform, the spectators were all stunned.

Among the entire young generation, only Luo Feng showed no surprise.

From the moment the duel began, he had anticipated this conclusion. If he were the one fighting Jian Wuji, this battle would end in an even shorter time.

In a corner of the VIP section, an elderly man with a thin figure placed down his teacup, looked towards Luo Feng, and smiled.

The thin elder was none other than the Tiger Soldiers Marquis, one of the six King Marquises. He didn’t have much interest in the Southern and Northern Martial Arts Tournament; he journeyed thousands of miles to Purple Cloud Island just to witness the discomfiture of Luo Feng being defeated by Cao Li. Now seeing Cao Li’s unexpectedly strong power, he was undoubtedly the happiest.

Touching the mottled dark jade ring on his hand, the Tiger Soldiers Marquis squinted his eyes with a smile and said, "Hidden Dragon Marquis, you declared in the Imperial City that you would surely win this Southern and Northern Martial Arts Tournament. I wonder how you will fare in the end."

Whoosh!

On the platform, Cao Li summoned, and the four short spears embedded in the ground flew back into the gun case behind him.

Glancing at Jian Wuji, Cao Li said indifferently, "Two and a half moves. Thank you for letting me win."

The Shooting Stars Thousand Miles Bullet, divided into front and rear moves, couldn’t be counted as one move or two moves, coupled with Chaos Sky Four Thunder Style, hence the claim of two and a half moves.

Hearing this, Jian Wuji almost spat blood again. He took a deep breath, suppressed the boiling blood in his chest, glanced at Luo Feng, and quietly stepped down from the platform.

Originally, he hadn’t expected to win against Cao Li, only wanting to compete for supremacy with Luo Feng.

Even though he only managed to withstand two and a half moves from Cao Li, losing somewhat embarrassingly, Jian Wuji believed that Luo Feng couldn’t withstand three moves from Cao Li either. With that thought, his mood of defeat became somewhat relieved.

As Jian Wuji and Cao Li left the platform, no one immediately stepped forward to challenge.

Whether it was Han Chong and Yu Bufan’s duel or Jian Wuji and Cao Li’s duel, both were incredibly exciting. Stepping forward now to challenge would inevitably be compared to the four, making those ranked lower among the younger generation lose interest in stepping forward.

With such magnificent performances already displayed, challenging now would only seem ridiculous, better to observe quietly.

Li Yifeng glanced at Luo Feng, spoke to Cao Li, "Senior brother, let me test this Luo Feng’s true capabilities."

Cao Li frowned and shook his head, "Junior brother Li, to speak frankly, before coming to Linglong Hall, I fought against Luo Feng; he’s not a simple master. Moreover, he’s now at the late stage of True Yuan Realm third level, and his cultivation far surpasses mine. You’re not his match."

"True Yuan Realm third level late stage!"

Upon hearing this, not only Li Yifeng, but also the disciples from Six Northern Domains nearby who heard Cao Li’s words inhaled deeply, looking at Luo Feng with immense shock.

In their eyes, under eighteen years of age, breaking through to True Yuan Realm third level makes Cao Li already exceptionally gifted, leading the young generation of Canglang Dynasty. They never imagined that within the Canglang Dynasty, there was another young individual whose cultivation could surpass Cao Li’s.

Moreover, Luo Feng’s age, even younger than Cao Li, yet his cultivation had reached the late stage of True Yuan Realm third level.

Li Yifeng’s expression stiffened. Cao Li’s words shattered his fighting spirit entirely; he was merely at True Yuan Realm second level early stage now. Challenging Luo Feng would only follow Jian Wuji’s footsteps.

At this moment, Hall Master Shi Lietian of Thundercloud Hall suddenly spoke, "Li Yifeng, go challenge Luo Feng."

"But, Luo Feng..." Li Yifeng was somewhat surprised. Someone who always valued victory, the Hall Master was asking him to challenge Luo Feng even knowing he would definitely be defeated.

Shi Lietian’s eyes fixed on Luo Feng, his bushy brows trembling, said solemnly, "Although you’re not Luo Feng’s match, if you go all out, you should be able to force out some of his strength. This way, later on when Cao Li battles him, the chances of winning would be greater. For our Thundercloud Hall to win this martial arts tournament, please bear this slight inconvenience."

Li Yifeng understood, nodded slightly and said, "Hall Master, your words are too kind. I’m also a disciple of Thundercloud Hall."

Seeing Li Yifeng about to step onto the platform to challenge, Cao Li frowned and said to Shi Lietian, "Hall Master, that’s unnecessary. I will defeat Luo Feng."

Li Yifeng raised his hand, interrupting Cao Li’s words, "Senior brother, as the saying goes, to know your enemy is to be invincible. The Hall Master is right. The more you understand Luo Feng, the higher your chances of winning."

"Junior brother Li..."

Cao Li was just about to speak when Li Yifeng had already appeared on the platform.

"Such fast speed! Truly ’Wind Chasing Palm’ Li Yifeng is faster than the wind!"

Many hadn’t noticed how Li Yifeng had ascended the platform, such stealthy Qinggong caused a stir of amazement among the audience, simultaneously raising expectations; after Jian Wuji’s crushing defeat by Cao Li, as the second strongest in the Six Northern Domains, Li Yifeng would issue a challenge to.

Li Yifeng didn’t let the crowd wait long, his gaze landed on Luo Feng, "I challenge Linglong Hall disciple Luo Feng."
