C16 Spirit sword
The next day, in the Martial Arts Practice Grounds.
There was a sea of people and the crowd was extremely noisy. Everyone was discussing today's battle.
"This is First Young Master Yan Qiuyu's battle of innocence. After this battle, it's clear whether he is Yan Qiuyu from the past or just a trick!"
Amidst the noise, Yan Fengtian, Yan Lingyun, Yan Pingsheng, and the elders of the Yan family all came to the grandstand and sat down.
Yan Lingyun shouted, "Everyone, quiet down!"
For a moment, there was complete silence.
Yan Lingyun said, "Yesterday, there was a dispute during the competition. Everyone is suspicious of Yan Qiuyu's strength. Today, let's let Yan Qiuyu test the strength of the second and first generation members of our Yan family." I hope that everyone will carefully watch the match and witness the victor and loser together. Anyone who intentionally causes trouble and makes a ruckus will be severely punished! In addition, in order to ensure the fairness of the competition, I have already ordered the guards to be responsible for the protection of the martial arts training field! Anyone who discovers that there is some scheme and plans to use external forces to interfere in the competition, thus affecting the results of the competition, shall be arrested immediately! "
Then, he said to Old Man Yan Yun who was standing beside him, "Uncle Yun, you can begin!"
Old Man Yan Yun performed the Tempest of Clouds. He knocked on the stone door on the Cloud Platform and announced the start of the competition.
Yan Qiuyu flew onto the stage, bowing to the elders and spectators below the stage.
With a shout, a figure flew into the arena. It was Yan Lanyue!
Yan Qiuyu clasped her hands at Yan Lengyue, "This competition concerns Qiuyu's innocence, Qiuyu will definitely go all out!"
With a light snort, Yan Lengyue unsheathed her blade. It was obvious that she did not want to waste words with him.
Yan Qiuyu drew her sword and prepared for battle.
Yan Lanyue's blade danced in the air, sending out waves of sharp Qi flow towards Yan Qiuyu.
"I won't use my spiritual son. It seems that Miss Leng Yue doesn't believe me either!"
Yan Qiuyu thought to herself in this way. He turned around and stepped aside. The blade aura and the long sword in his hand were filled with the power of the spirit seed, and it struck towards Yan Lanyue's blade.
With a "lush" sound, Yan Lanyue's blade broke.
"You!" Yan Lanyue shouted out angrily.
"Little sister Leng Yue, there's no need to cherish me. Just do your best!"
"Hmph, asking for trouble!" With a shout, Yan Lengyue gathered her power and the spirit particles around her started to churn. A powerful pressure was pressing down on Yan Qiuyu.
"Oh, 'Bai Liu Nu Shi' looks like sister Leng Yue is truly angry!"
"Look, Swimming Dragon Steps!" Yan Qiuyu turned and walked away. Her figure was like the wind, passing through the gap of the Spiritual Energy and leaving quickly.
When Yan Lengyue saw this, her heart was immediately enraged. She recalled her battle with Wang Mu earlier. Wang Mu had also relied on her quick and quick movement technique to defeat her.
Feeling indignant, he immediately channeled all the spirit seeds in his body and turned them into sharp saber Qi, spreading it out to cover the entire area!
Yan Qiuyu was shocked to realize that the pressure from her spiritual body had changed into a sharp and overbearing blade force. While maintaining her footwork, she waved the treasured sword in her hand to block the blade force.
The blade's power was fierce and overbearing. As it collided with the treasured sword in his hand, golden stars flew everywhere, and cracks appeared on the treasured sword!
With a bang, the treasured sword broke into pieces. Yan Qiuyu immediately took three steps back, taking advantage of the fact that she had performed the Wandering Dragon Steps to stabilize her body.
Yan Lengyue was furious. She had long treated the person before her as the Wang Mu of the past, who had defeated her. She controlled the spiritual energy in her body, and the saber energy around her surged like a hurricane, attacking Yan Qiuyu from all directions!
Plus, he had just reached the spirit realm and didn't have any actual combat experience, so he didn't know how to control the spirit seed. He had wanted to use this martial arts training to gain some experience, but he didn't expect that none of the opponents he would meet in this martial arts training had a real fight with him. When the real opponent appeared, he would be an expert like Yan Lanyue!
Just as Yan Qiuyu was lost in her thoughts, the small black book in her mind suddenly glowed with a bright light. In her mind, there seemed to be only this small black book, and as the pages flipped open, the picture of the human body meridian showed a faint word 'sword'!
Then, the word 'sword' suddenly glowed. It broke down and flowed into the Qi Paths, moving non-stop. Yan Qiuyu also felt that there was something moving along the Qi Paths in her body like an ant moving along the path shown in the diagram.
As the blade power attacked, Yan Qiuyu raised her right hand, and there was a loud bang! His spirit seed exploded, blasting away the saber force that filled the arena!
Looking at Yan Qiuyu's hand, a sword slowly grew out. The sword was silvery and slender, bright and resplendent, the same color as a spirit child!
"Ah, this, this is …"
"Spirit sub sword, the legendary spirit sub sword!"
"Gathering spirit seeds and transforming them into a sword. This is at least fifth level spirit realm!"
"It's not difficult to convert a spirit child into a sword master, but to materialize a real sword master is extremely difficult."
"Not only must he have a high cultivation base, but he must also mature in the use of the spirit child. Only then will he be able to handle it!"
"Looks like this Yan Qiuyu is truly different from the past!"
"That's right. With this level of cultivation, there's no need to fake it when fighting Yan Peng!"
"Yeah, yeah!"
On the stage, Yan Lengyue also let out a surprised cry. The saber in her hand combined with the boundless circulation of the spiritual child in her body and unleashed an extreme saber strike!
Yan Qiuyu's [Spirit sub-Sword] ingeniously reversed and combined with the Dragon Travelling Steps' supreme movement technique to avoid the blade force. Her sword struck out and the two of them crossed each other before suddenly coming to a stop.
The nearby Yan Fengwu was frightened out of his wits.
After a while, Yan Lanyue's left shoulder brushed against her hair and fell to the ground.
"It seems that Yan Lengyue is slightly weaker!"
"Mm, if she knows what's good for her, then she'll take this opportunity to admit defeat!"
"But she's Yan Lanyue!" Leng Xiao was extremely arrogant, so how could she admit defeat? "
"You don't understand now. The reason why Yan Lengyue is so cold and proud, and also why others don't hate her, is because even though she is arrogant, she is not an unreasonable person. She will not become someone outstanding just because of a mere rank, and instead, she will admit her failure and painstakingly train herself."
"Mm, what you said fits Yan Lanyue's personality!"
On the stage, Yan Lengyue slowly turned around. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Yan Qiuyu say, "This move is complete."
"Beat him up?"
Yan Qiuyu slowly turned her head, only to see that the clothes on his left shoulder were slightly damaged, as if it was caused by the saber force.
"Oh, they are indeed evenly matched!"
"Looks like Yan Qiuyu is not experienced enough against enemies. Otherwise, with such a great agility skill like the 'Wandering Dragon Steps', it wouldn't be difficult to take this attack!"
"Mm, I think so. Maybe Yan Lengyue knows that Yan Qiuyu's cultivation is higher than hers, and she is trying to find a way to defeat her opponent by using this dangerous method."
"No matter what, for the sake of ranking, Yan Qiuyu's rumors can be broken by herself!"
"Yeah, my family's eldest son is no longer the same as before, it's a cause for celebration!"
"Congratulations!"
Yan Lingyun smiled and asked, "Nephew, do you want to continue this duel?"
Yan Qiuyu laughed, "In my heart, Qiu Yu will only treat this battle as a battle of innocence. She did not intend to fight with Sister Leng Yue. Whether I fight or not will depend on Sister Leng Yue."
Yan Lanyue let out a long sigh and said, "I was just playing tricks on you. Your cultivation level has already far surpassed mine. There's no need to compete anymore!"
Yan Lingyun and Yan Fengtian looked at each other. "Hmm, to be able to make lady Yan Lengyue admit that she is inferior, Qiu Yu, you have really made everyone in the clan look at you in a new light!"
After that, Yan Lingyun announced to the audience, "Although Niece Leng Yue thinks she is inferior to my Yan family's young master Yan Qiuyu, since this is a battle, then we should focus on the actual situation. Although Yan Qiuyu's cultivation is high, but her experience is insufficient.
"We have no objections!"
"Patriarch, do you have any objections?"
"No objections."
"Father, do you have any objections with the elders of the clan?"
"No objections."
"Hahahaha, then I, Yan Lingyun, the Head Supervisor of this year's Clan Martial Meet, will once again announce the results of this battle. Yan Lengyue and Yan Qiuyu, fight side by side!"
"Alright!" Everyone cheered.
Yan Lingyun waved his hand to indicate for everyone to be quiet, "Yan Qiuyu and Yan Lengyue have a good fight, and Lady Leng Yue thinks that she won't be able to beat Yan Qiuyu with her power alone, so the rumor of Yan Qiuyu being involved in a fraud will never be broken. However, since Yan Huaiyuan was injured a day ago, there are still many doubts about it, and since it has already been proven that Yan Qiuyu is innocent, I suggest that after the Clan Martial Meet is over, we let young master Yan Qiuyu, together with my son Yan Fengwu, handle this matter." Everyone has their objections! "
"How can that be? After what happened yesterday, the young master already has a personal grudge with Yan Huaiyuan. How can he participate in this trial?"
"Why not? If Yan Huaiyuan is framing the young master, then the young master should be the one to seek justice!"
"That's right. We have already proven the innocence of our young master. How can we not judge a sinner?"
"Could it be that you still suspect the eldest young master? Then, why don't you go up on stage and experience the eldest young master's Spirit Sword and see just how strong he is?"
For a time, even though the crowd had some objections, the voices of agreement were louder than the voices of opposition.
Yan Fengwu firmly remembered those who had opposed him, because they were most likely the people who had planned or carried out this conspiracy.
"Since a large portion of the clansmen trust Yan Qiuyu, we shall hand this over to her!" Furthermore, the competition between Yan Qiuyu and Yan Lengyue has already concluded, and Yan Qiuyu's innocence has been proven, so the Clan Martial Meet should start again. I think from the strength that Yan Qiuyu displayed today, amongst the younger generation in the clan, no one else can fight against her, right? "
Yan Yun replied, "Hmm, originally, I also wanted to let Yan Qiuyu and Yan Lengyue fight with each other before battling with Yanling."
"That's perfect. Tomorrow, let the young master have a duel with the Mausoleum of Yan to see how the outcome will be." To tell you the truth, I'm really looking forward to this match! "Hahahaha …"
Yan Pingsheng stood up and mumbled, "Since that's the case, let's disperse!"
The smile on Yan Lingyun's face froze. He exchanged a glance with Yan Fengtian and announced their departure.
Night. Yan Lingyun and Yan Fengtian sat facing each other.
"Feng Tian, can you tell my father's attitude today?"
"I've seen through it. Brother, if it's really our father who planned to destroy Qiu Yu and cripple my master's identity, what choice would you make?
Yan Lingyun looked at Yan Fengtian, "Are you asking me whether I'm on father's side or yours?"
"I don't have a choice. I don't need the identity of the clan head, but I can't not give my son a chance to live!"
"Father is good in every way, except that he loves Third Bro too much!" "Since the matter of Feng Tian is now on your mind, you can only see your son in danger. When your father launched an attack, he lost the ability to see the big picture!"
"The big picture?"
If you let me choose between father and you, I won't choose, but if you let me choose between father and the Yan family, then I will choose the Yan family! "Jiang Chen said in a low voice," If you let me choose between father and the Yan family, then I will choose the Yan family!
Yan Feng Tian's eyes lit up: "I, I really did miss out on this!"
"Right now, the enemy's scheme to use the autumn rain to attack you has failed. They will definitely launch their final attack tomorrow."
"I've already informed Qiu Yu to bring some of the clan's best fighters over and wait outside the door!"
"Oh, then let them in and set them up properly!"
