On the training ground.
Although Jiang Yi possessed wood-attribute spiritual energy, in her current state, her attacks were incredibly fierce.
From Xin, for a time, could only barely parry her blows.
From Xin gritted his teeth, his expression slightly grim, but he wasn't overly anxious yet.
He could tell that Jiang Yi's current state was very strange.
This state couldn't be maintained indefinitely.
As long as he held out and waited for her to exit this peculiar state, it would be time to counterattack!
He could still wait!
From Xin held his breath, just waiting for the moment to strike back.
Soon.
Jiang Yi's attack speed slowly began to slacken. From Xin's heart, a flicker of joy arose; he knew his chance was coming.
Finally.
The deep blue color in Jiang Yi's eyes slowly faded, and the force of her attacks rapidly weakened.
Now.
It was his turn to counterattack!
From Xin drew his saber, his expression ferocious. It was time to let these Sword Sect disciples see his Heaven-Slaying Saber!
He couldn't wait to launch his attack.
Jiang Yi glanced at him, quickly retreated a few steps, and then said, "I concede."
After saying that, she jumped directly off the arena.
From Xin: "???"
Concede?
He instantly felt an urge to spit blood.
Who allowed Jiang Yi to concede like that?!
If he had been continuously suppressing Jiang Yi, her concession would have been natural, and he could have used the opportunity to mock the Sword Sect.
But what about now?
Everyone saw Jiang Yi continuously suppressing him, and after she finished, before he even had a chance to counterattack, Jiang Yi directly conceded!
This made it look as if Jiang Yi was deliberately going easy on him!
From Xin was going crazy. He couldn't help but shout at Jiang Yi, "Why are you running? Get back up here! This match isn't over yet!"
He didn't want this kind of victory!
Liu Juncheng shielded Jiang Yi behind him and calmly said, "This is the Sword Sect. My third junior sister has already fulfilled her duties as a host. This first match, consider it your win."
From Xin gritted his teeth!
He didn't dare to look back!
But he could feel that Yan Zhonghe's expression behind him would definitely not be pleasant.
They came to the Sword Sect this time to give the Sword Sect disciples a small shock. What they wanted was for the Sword Sect disciples to fear them from now on!
But in the current situation, Jiang Yi conceded, but the process was...
This completely stripped his victory of any deterrent effect!
This Jiang Yi was definitely doing it on purpose!
The Sword Sect was truly too cunning!
But with Jiang Yi's forced concession, he couldn't force her to continue fighting.
From Xin glanced at the other Sword Sect members and said coldly, "Who's next?! Does the Sword Sect have no other Golden Core stage cultivators willing to fight? Is the Sword Sect's strength limited to this? Besides playing little tricks, do you have no other means? Is the Sword Sect full of trash?"
Liu Juncheng's expression turned cold. He stepped forward, intending to go onto the stage again.
"Second Senior Brother!" A clear voice rang out.
Liu Juncheng: "..."
Was he not allowed to fight anymore?
Wait.
This voice...
Liu Juncheng turned around and saw Li Shuang, who had just arrived.
The disciples of Ruthless Peak were all slightly stunned.
What a coincidence.
Little Shuang had actually come out of seclusion at this time!
Li Shuang calmly said, "Second Senior Brother, let me do it."
Liu Juncheng was taken aback.
Luo Mingyue couldn't help but say, "Little Shuang, From Xin is already at the peak of the Golden Core stage."
And Little Shuang had only just broken through to the Golden Core stage three months ago. Her cultivation speed was fast, but she was only in the middle Golden Core stage now.
With this level of cultivation, she probably wouldn't stand a chance against From Xin.
"Let me do it," Li Shuang said again.
Her voice was calm, carrying a hint of undeniable confidence.
The disciples of Ruthless Peak were all stunned.
Sui Jin's peach blossom eyes curved slightly upwards, a smile in their depths: "Junior Sister never boasts. Let her try."
"I won't lose," Li Shuang said.
The others looked at each other and then agreed.
Li Shuang stepped forward, walking steadily towards the Golden Core stage arena.
She had just stepped onto the arena.
Suddenly.
"Senior Brother Wen!" The sorrowful and indignant voice of a Sword Sect disciple rang out.
Li Shuang looked towards the Nascent Soul stage arena, her expression slightly stern.
Wu Lingchuan's strength was extraordinary. Although he was parasitized by Ye Zhaozhao, it had only been three months, and his strength hadn't declined too much.
Coupled with the bonus from his excellent spiritual root and the Heaven-Slaying Saber technique, Wen Lin could barely hold on at first, but later, he could only passively take hits.
Yet, Wen Lin was a stubborn one. He absolutely refused to utter the word "concede."
Wu Lingchuan continued to attack recklessly. By now, Wen Lin was covered in blood, and countless meridians in his body were damaged, but he stubbornly endured, refusing to admit defeat.
"Enough! Stop now!" Wen Lin's master, True Master Hongtian, the peak lord of Shocking Heaven Peak, couldn't help but stand up!
He had finally gained such a talented disciple. If he were to be crippled on such an arena, it would truly be meaningless!
True Master Hongtian gritted his teeth, wanting to forcibly stop the fight.
Yan Zhonghe smiled, "True Master Hongtian, your disciple can certainly concede. He hasn't conceded yet, who knows if he has some counterattack up his sleeve? What if you stopping the fight now affects his performance?"
True Master Hongtian was about to say something more.
Yan Zhonghe said, "By the way, I recorded today's exchange competition with a memory stone. A loss is a loss, a win is a win. Do Sword Sect disciples not even dare to say they lost?"
Everyone immediately looked at Yan Zhonghe with anger.
Yan Zhonghe was not afraid in the slightest, his expression full of mockery.
In the world of cultivation, the strong are revered.
Currently, the overall strength of the Overlord Saber Sect was significantly stronger than that of the Sword Sect!
Besides the Sword Sect, among the other five sects, three had explicitly supported the Overlord Saber Sect in replacing the Sword Sect's position.
Although the top-ranked Cangyuan Sect and Guiyi Sect had not expressed their stance, these two sects also did not favor the Sword Sect!
This time.
No matter what the Sword Sect chose, losing face was inevitable!
"Sect Master!" True Master Hongtian anxiously looked at Meng Yifei.
Meng Yifei's expression was cold.
Just now, on the three arenas.
Leaving Jiang Yi aside.
Wen Lin and Jiang Rongyi were both having a tough time.
Jiang Rongyi could barely hold his own.
Wen Lin, however, was suppressed from the very beginning.
Wen Lin, like Jiang Yi, was not fond of talking.
But their personalities were completely different.
Jiang Yi didn't care much about winning or losing; neither would affect her Dao heart.
But Wen Lin... was very stubborn.
This was precisely why Yan Zhonghe demanded that only one side conceding could end the battle.
If it were a friendly exchange, saying "I lost" wouldn't be difficult.
But the Overlord Saber Sect clearly came with malicious intent. A stubborn person like Wen Lin would rather die on the arena than utter a word of concession.
If he were to forcibly concede for Wen Lin.
He feared it would give rise to inner demons.
Meng Yifei stared fixedly at the arena, finding it difficult to make a decision for a moment.
Li Shuang also stared fixedly at the arena over there.
A sinister smile appeared on From Xin's face.
He arrogantly said, "Sword Sect disciples are indeed more incompetent than the last. A mere middle-stage Golden Core dares to step onto this arena. Seeing Wen Lin getting beaten, are you not desperate and in pain? Don't worry, next, you will only be more desperate and more in pain!"
He had a belly full of anger, just waiting to vent.
Wasn't this Li Shuang the one who bullied Qing Yu?
Perfect, on this arena, he would teach this person a good lesson for Qing Yu.
His master would also think more highly of him for avenging Qing Yu!
Thinking this, From Xin's smile became even more ferocious.
This time.
He was going to have some fun with this Li Shuang.
