Chapter 64: Chapter 64, Chu Ming Takes Action (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Collections)
The purple sword light and the white sword light continually intertwined, exploding dazzling radiances in the space, like glittering fireworks, coloring the surroundings.
Step step step
The purple Sword Aura and thousands of white Sword Aura both extinguished, the strong explosion sound causing Wang Yun and Yan Qingfeng to simultaneously retreat three steps, faces deathly pale.
"I think we should call this match a draw, what do you think?"
Wang Yun sheathed his Purple Sword, asking calmly. As his strongest killing move, the Eastern Purple Qi had failed to defeat Yan Qingfeng, leaving him out of options.
"Agreed. We will battle another day!"
Yan Qingfeng wound the soft sword around his waist, retreated to the Cyan Yang Sect disciples to recover his spiritual power, Wang Yun also stepped down.
"This match is mine. Who among you will step forward?"
Soon, a young man stepped out from the Celestial Star Sect’s ranks, asking indifferently.
...
The competition continued, with almost all participants being prodigies from Celestial Star Sect and Cyan Yang Sect, each with their reputations in the martial world, knowing each other’s techniques.
Chu Ming watched silently below, deepening his understanding of martial arts. Although the participants weren’t Earth List prodigies, no one could predict their future potential to enter the Earth List.
After all, the Earth List recorded the young talents under twenty from the Great Yan Kingdom, usually core disciples from the five sects. Some core disciples who were over twenty weren’t eligible, despite their power.
The Earth List signified strength and talent; lacking either meant exclusion. Those who entered the Earth List would inevitably reach the True Dao Realm if they survived, although reaching Guiyuan Realm required talent and opportunity.
Boom
A colossal boom sounded, the two figures on stage separated, one visibly seriously injured. Ling Kong coughed up fresh blood, his face pale, breath weak, sect robes nearly destroyed, evident of Cyan Yang Sect’s Huang Tao.
Fang Lie of Celestial Star Sect wasn’t faring well either, struggling to stabilize himself, also spitting blood, messy hair, almost collapsing.
"We lost this round!"
Guan Chengzhi’s face sank slightly, speaking slowly. Despite many matches, Cyan Yang Sect’s disciples gained no advantage, with Celestial Star Sect slightly leading in victories.
"Sect Leader Guan, thank you for your concession!"
Liu Tianxing spoke with a smile, collecting the lower grade spirit stones from the ground, in high spirits.
"For this round, I will compete. Who will face me?"
A steady voice emerged, a young man stepped out from Celestial Star Sect, resolute face, bright eyes like stars, clad in a cyan robe, exuding an aura of transcendence, standing out amongst his peers.
It’s Tianxing Zi!
"Didn’t expect Tianxing Zi to compete, wondering which brother will challenge him."
"Alas, Tianxing Zi is a young prodigy of Celestial Star Sect, only seventeen. Even if defeated, it wouldn’t be glorious."
"Your point is valid, but don’t forget, Cyan Yang Sect also has young prodigies."
"You mean Brother Chu Ming? But his rise was recent, whether he can defeat Tianxing Zi remains uncertain, might even disgrace Cyan Yang Sect."
The Cyan Yang Sect disciples discussed earnestly upon seeing Tianxing Zi enter the stage.
Indeed, Tianxing Zi’s reputation was widespread, drawing inevitable attention from Cyan Yang Sect’s members.
Rumors said Tianxing Zi could defeat Fourth Layer Transcendence Realm martial artists at Seventh Layer initially, once chased a transnational robber for three days across most of the Great Yan Kingdom, slaying him. His talent even impressed Celestial Star Sect’s founder, who personally made him a direct disciple. Liu Tianxing claimed Tianxing Zi’s talent surpassed the five great geniuses.
Such rumors left Cyan Yang Sect members uncertain whether to believe, but Tianxing Zi’s strength was undeniable.
"Sect Leader Guan, how about Tianxing Zi?"
Seeing Tianxing Zi compete, Liu Tianxing nodded in satisfaction, then turned to ask Guan Chengzhi.
"Being a direct disciple of Tianxing Daoist, Tianxing Zi certainly has his unique qualities."
Guan Chengzhi responded lightly, not directly answering. Tianxing Daoist, an old ancestor of Celestial Star Sect in Guiyuan Realm, was a notable figure in Great Yan Kingdom.
"I’ve heard a young prodigy emerged in Cyan Yang Sect too, why not let them duel?"
After speaking, Liu Tianxing’s gaze scanned the Cyan Yang Sect ranks, finally settling on Chu Ming, whose unique aura immediately attracted him. Like Tianxing Zi, Chu Ming stood out among Cyan Yang Sect’s disciples.
The Cyan Yang Sect disciples fell silent; even defeating Tianxing Zi wouldn’t be honorable, failing would make Tianxing Zi famous.
"I’ll compete!"
Chu Ming spoke calmly, stepping out from Cyan Yang Sect’s lines, his white robe fluttering, long hair flying, handsome face, pure aura, surrounded by countless mini sword qi revolving around him, ripping the air.
"Brother Chu Ming steps up, hope he wins; otherwise, he’ll become Tianxing Zi’s stepping stone!"
"With Brother Chu Ming’s strength, defeating Tianxing Zi is uncertain, their match unpredictable!"
"If Brother Chu Ming defeats Tianxing Zi, his talent could far surpass the five great geniuses!"
Cyan Yang Sect disciples discussed as Chu Ming emerged.
"Brother Ma, do you think Chu Ming can defeat Tianxing Zi?" Huang Tao, mostly recovered, stood and asked a long-faced youth beside him.
The long-faced youth, extraordinary, donned in white, wielded a distinct weapon - a white axe at his waist, gleaming coldly.
He was Ma Fei, ranked fifth on Cyan Yang List within the Inner Sect, highly revered.
"Him? He should look in a mirror. Impossible to rival Tianxing Zi! Within ten moves, Chu Ming will surely lose!"
Ma Fei sneered coldly, confidently speaking, glancing at the two not far away.
