Chapter 1278 - 1378: Helpless at Heart

Although Master Brother Yun Tian knew Ye Tianfan was very talented, he never expected Ye Tianfan to be able to reach such a level of genius. He has only been training for about five years, yet not only has he caught up to those like me who have trained for decades, but he has also surpassed those who have trained for over a hundred years. Now I can't even create a little trouble for Ye Tianfan.

Master Brother Yun Tian found it a bit hard to accept.

It's like working as a skilled craftsman for decades, then suddenly a young guy who has barely any skills comes along, and after learning for half a year, his skills surpass everyone in the workshop.

Seeing his Beidou Seven-Star Sword Seed Sword has become useless and lost connection, Master Brother Yun Tian considered using the Qilin Seal. However, he realized that Ye Tianfan hasn't even used the Xuanhuang Tower yet. If he uses the Qilin Seal, it would be of no use, since the Xuanhuang Tower and Qilin Seal are of the same level. If he uses the Qilin Seal, then Ye Tianfan could simply use the Qilin Seal too, or Ye Tianfan might not even need to use the Xuanhuang Tower.

While the situation was at a stalemate, Ye Tianfan didn't make any other moves and continued letting the Fire Lotus Sword drag on. Master Brother Yun Tian knew he couldn't hold out much longer, and if he continued to delay, he would definitely lose cleanly!

Seeing Ye Tianfan not making any other moves, Master Brother Yun Tian realized Ye Tianfan was giving him space. Clenching his teeth hard, Master Brother Yun Tian directly manipulated the main sword of the Beidou Seven-Star Sword, transforming it into a turquoise liquid form, which began to entwine the scarlet torrent of the Fire Lotus Sword!

Huh? Hard doesn't work, switching to soft? Trying to overcome strength with softness?

Ye Tianfan watched this scene, momentarily confused, wondering what Master Brother Yun Tian was trying to do. Overcoming strength with softness wouldn't work; his Fire Lotus Sword wasn't hard at all, the flames were fierce but weren't hard flames, they were soft!

Ye Tianfan never expected Master Brother Yun Tian to respond with overcoming strength with softness, though even if this were the case, Ye Tianfan wasn't afraid. In Ye Tianfan's opinion, even though Master Brother Yun Tian had mistakenly used a move, thinking about overcoming strength with softness was still commendable. After all, many people at this point have already given up!

Though right now, overcoming strength with softness doesn't serve any purpose for me. Why does Master Brother Yun Tian insist on using it against me?

Just as Ye Tianfan was a bit puzzled, Master Brother Yun Tian's eyebrows furrowed tightly, with a serious expression. His right hand supported virtually, and his left hand stretched out. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion, the originally flat platform in front of Master Brother Yun Tian cracked instantly, with a large amount of turquoise light bursting out and rushing towards the sky.

Hm? Wait, this kind of move, Ye Tianfan recalled seeing a record in a book before. This was a special move unique to the Beidou Seven-Star Sword, capable of summoning the real Beidou Seven Stars and having them descend from the sky, smashing towards the enemy!

"So ruthless? Throwing meteors at the slightest clash?" Ye Tianfan looked at Master Brother Yun Tian's serious face, suddenly feeling a bit helpless. He never expected Master Brother Yun Tian would throw meteors, since these meteors directly enveloped the entire arena. There was nowhere to hide from them, he could only block them. It seemed he had to display some strength, or else he would really be defeated by this move. Even a small meteor's power was quite tremendous!

On the arena, only a loud "crash" could be heard. The seven sword seeds previously enveloped by Ye Tianfan with the Fire Lotus now broke free from their confinement, rushing towards those seven little meteors in the sky. Then, the eight meteors covered the sky and surrounded Ye Tianfan, with a strong sulfur smell permeating the entire arena.

At this point, Master Brother Yun Tian's face was slightly pale, as this move consumed a lot of his Spiritual Power. Yet he didn't stop, shouting loudly, then fiercely swishing his hands at Ye Tianfan, causing the meteors to shine brightly and rush towards Ye Tianfan with even greater speed, unstoppable.

As long as I can force you to use the Xuanhuang Tower, then I have won. Although the final result will still be my loss, as long as you pull out the Xuanhuang Tower, it means I can cause significant harm to you; you were forced to summon your strongest defense!

Ye Tianfan felt a bit of a headache seeing this. He thought, at this point, which move should be used for defense? Which move could withstand the meteor's attack? After all, the meteor's power is really great. If not handled properly, and he gets hit by the meteor, it would be embarrassing. Though he wouldn't die, or even be severely injured, he would get hurt slightly, which would be really shameful in this entertaining martial art competition!

Ye Tianfan didn't intend to use the Xuanhuang Tower, because he already assumed that if he used the Xuanhuang Tower, even if he won, it would mean losing. So Ye Tianfan never considered using the Xuanhuang Tower from the start!

This move will do, Ye Tianfan resolved.

Just when Ye Tianfan decided which move to use, those meteors had already engulfed him.

"So fierce? What's with Yun Tian? Could he possibly have a Heart Demon?" The Perfect Master Taichu saw his apprentice Yun Tian fighting so desperately and felt deep doubt!

The arena was filled with lava, as the meteors, mixed with high heat, had melted the ground. At the moment, Ye Tianfan's situation was unseen, yet Master Brother Yun Tian wasn't relaxed at all, keeping his eyes wide open, observing the place where Ye Tianfan's silhouette disappeared. He couldn't believe Ye Tianfan could be easily defeated and was waiting to see Ye Tianfan use the Xuanhuang Tower!

However, seeing Ye Tianfan remain motionless for a long time, Master Brother Yun Tian had some doubts in his mind.

Suddenly, just as Master Brother Yun Tian hesitated, wondering if he had really defeated Ye Tianfan, multiple meteors abruptly lit up with crimson light. These crimson lights became brighter, and then those meteors were directly broken by the crimson light. Master Brother Yun Tian then saw, within the shattered meteors, a scarlet lotus bud slowly rise out. Once the lotus bud completely rose above the lava, it floated rapidly upwards.

Master Brother Yun Tian saw the bud and his face changed dramatically because he knew he had still lost. Even against such a powerful move, Ye Tianfan didn't use the Xuanhuang Tower. It seemed he had overestimated himself!

He then deeply sighed and signaled the Elder judge to surrender.

Because unsurprisingly, Ye Tianfan was inside the bud, and even if he didn't surrender, there was no meaning in continuing to battle. Master Brother Yun Tian wasn't someone who pesters endlessly, so he surrendered cleanly!
