Inverse Sword Mad God
Chapter 56 - 56 55 Shangguan Liuyun

56: Chapter 55 Shangguan Liuyun 56: Chapter 55 Shangguan Liuyun Hua Yangping fell to the ground like a kite with its string cut, his body continuously spouting blood.

The arena became eerily silent for a moment, as Lin Xuan had indeed won the match with just three moves, making it seem like a dream to the audience.

After all, this was the top fighter below the Four Masters, defeated by only three moves.

“Could Lin Xuan already possess the strength of the Four Masters?” everyone wondered.

“Hua Yangping was too careless; otherwise, the fight wouldn’t have ended so quickly,” Duan Fei murmured.

Jiang Yulong’s face turned terrifyingly dark.

He had just finished mocking Lin Xuan, but the outcome of the match had slapped him hard in the face.

Recalling Shangguan Liuyun’s recent insult of “idiot,” Jiang Yulong felt a murderous impulse.

He certainly knew that Hua Yangping had been careless and underestimated his opponent, but what could he do now?

“I can’t believe such trash could make it to the top four.

But this is as far as you go; you’ll be crushed no matter who you face next!” Jiang Yulong said hatefully, “I really hope you end up facing me…”

Lin Xuan, once again exceeding everyone’s expectations, successfully made it to the top four, heading into the semifinals.

In the top four, aside from the dark horse Lin Xuan, the other three were long-established young talents.

Each one of them was dazzling: Duan Fei, unbeatable in lightweight body technique, Jiang Yulong with his consolidated Attribute Spiritual Power, and the enigmatic Shangguan Liuyun.

Who would secure the first place?

After resting for two hours, the square-faced referee announced the start of the semifinals.

The first match, Shangguan Liuyun vs.

Duan Fei!

The crowd instantly boiled with excitement as the first match was between the two strongest competitors.

Shangguan Liuyun ranked first among the Outer Door, while Duan Fei was second, even above Jiang Yulong.

The semifinal pitted the two strongest against each other, making the final battle one of them versus Jiang Yulong for first place.

Everyone automatically discounted Lin Xuan; although they acknowledged his strength, next to the three talents, no one favored him.

Watching the two on the arena, Jiang Yulong’s lips curled into a sinister smile, thinking, Good, I’ll personally take care of that trash!

On the arena, standing ten paces apart, Shangguan Liuyun, dressed in black, stood upright, his aura completely withdrawn inside him.

He flicked the ring on his left index finger, and a purple long spear appeared in his hand.

With a spear in hand, Shangguan Liuyun’s aura exploded, his Spiritual Power surging, as if he alone, with his spear, could tear the sky apart.

Duan Fei concentrated, facing the top Outer Door fighter, he had to bring out all his strength.

His longsword trembled, and Duan Fei became a streak of light, rushing forward.

His speed was extremely fast, even faster than when he had fought Shen Qian’er, leaving a series of afterimages in the air, the silver sword light almost disappearing.

Lin Xuan furrowed his brows, having to fully focus to discern Duan Fei’s movements.

Jiang Yulong, from afar, also showed a slight change in expression, evidently surprised by Duan Fei’s speed.

However, Shangguan Liuyun remained immovable like a mountain, holding the purple long spear with great steadiness.

Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows, retreated rapidly by thirty feet, and in an instant disappeared from his original spot.

Where he had stood, several sword lights appeared out of thin air, churning the ground into debris.

Hiss!

Duan Fei appeared in front of Shangguan Liuyun, his sword qi shooting forth like a whistling meteor.

His sword, unpredictable like the horns of an antelope left barely any trace or sound, taking anyone off guard.

Facing such a fearsome swordsman, Shangguan Liuyun finally made his move.

A simple thrust, with no flourish, yet it felt like an unrivaled overlord striking mightily, where in that instant, everything in the world seemed to disappear but that one spear thrust.

Spear like a dragon!

The purple long spear transformed into a ferocious purple giant dragon, roared forward, scattering the tricky and sharp sword lights and continuing its fierce momentum toward Duan Fei.

Crack, crack, crack!

A series of explosive sounds filled the air, and the vast Spiritual Power ruthlessly surged to Duan Fei, penetrating him instantly.

“Ah!” All the disciples in the stands cried out.

Could it be over just like that?

As if in response, the Duan Fei who was impaled gradually faded, scattered, and then disappeared without a trace.

“Afterimage!” Lin Xuan muttered, “Using his speed in conjunction with his Spiritual Power, he leaves an afterimage in his original place while his true body hides itself.

Indeed, a clever tactic!”

His gaze sharp as lightning, he quickly scanned the arena, finally spotting Duan Fei.

“This guy, he’s so fast!” Lin Xuan exclaimed in admiration.

Shangguan Liuyun également spotted Duan Fei.

He shook his spear, thrusting again.

Thud, thud, thud!

With each thrust Shangguan Liuyun made, he pierced a Duan Fei, but all were just afterimages, each of the Duan Fei afterimages was penetrated and then vanished.

In the end, the entire arena was filled with images of Duan Fei and Shangguan Liuyun’s long spear.

The disciples in the stands watched tensely, fearing they might miss any detail.

This terrifying speed was beyond their imagination.

On the golden stands, several elders laughed heartily: “These kids are really something, with endless potential!”

On the arena, Shangguan Liuyun stood holding his spear, imposing like a god or demon, his eyes swiftly scanning around.

Suddenly, he twisted his body, his purple long spear turned into a cold light, stabbing towards his right back.

Clang, clang!

A figure was shaken out, Duan Fei stumbled backward, a trace of surprise on his face.

“The game is over!” Shangguan Liuyun said gravely.

Suddenly, an even more intense aura burst forth from both of them, their robust Spiritual Power like two flickering flames, shimmering nonstop.

Ding, ding, ding!

Duan Fei’s longsword swung like a rainbow, countless sword lights poured out, appearing like millions of white feathers, filling the entire space.

However, Shangguan Liuyun’s robust purple Spiritual Power gathered on his long spear, forming an invisible vortex, drawing in all the white feathers.

“Spiral Spear Technique!”

Shangguan Liuyun cried out, the purple spearhead surged with wildly spinning Spiritual Power, coupled with the sharp spearhead, constantly compressing the surrounding air.
