“Go ahead and make your move first.
If you don’t, I’m afraid you won’t get the chance.”
The moment these words were spoken, a deathly silence fell over the crowd, and then a multitude of clamorous voices erupted.
Everyone was almost in disbelief, looking at Chu Fengmian as if he was a fool.
“Has this kid gone mad?”
“Challenging one of the Four Great Talents, Lin Mozhu, and letting him make the first move?”
“Mad, truly a madman!
Even those who are also among the Four Great Talents wouldn’t dare to underestimate him like that.”
“This kid probably doesn’t even know how to write the word ‘death.’ I thought he was another genius, but he turns out to be a fool.”
Despite hearing the crowd’s discussions, Chu Fengmian merely smirked coldly.
He wasn’t wrong; he was confident that he could defeat Lin Mozhu in one move.
Lin Mozhu’s relied-on swordsmanship seemed childish in front of Chu Fengmian.
If it were the other three, perhaps Chu Fengmian wouldn’t be so relaxed, but Lin Mozhu was a Sword Cultivator.
Chu Fengmian was considered a Grandmaster of the Sword Dao after all, and in terms of Sword Intent, he was revered like the forefather of all Sword Cultivators.
To Chu Fengmian, Lin Mozhu’s swordsmanship seemed like mere child’s play.
Precisely for this reason, even though Lin Mozhu had reached the Divine Sea realm, he still appeared weak to Chu Fengmian.
“Good!
So arrogant!
I thought Ao Wuming was arrogant enough, treating his own life as nothing, but here’s someone even more audacious!” Lin Mozhu said with a mixture of anger and laughter.
Since when had he, one of the top four talents of Jijing City, been so scorned?
Especially by Chu Fengmian, who seemed to be just a small fry at the fifth level of body refinement.
“Let’s see if your strength can match your arrogance!” Lin Mozhu looked at Chu Fengmian and said coldly.
“Let me tell you, I won’t show any mercy just because you are a friend of Lord Qu.
You need to understand that.”
“Mr.
Chu merely had a fleeting encounter with Miss Qu and cannot really be considered friends,” Chu Fengmian calmly replied.
He was not interested in getting involved with Qu Wuyin; he intended to enter the Wusheng College on his own merits, unrelated to Qu Wuyin.
“Very well, you do have character!” Lin Mozhu chuckled as he looked at Chu Fengmian.
“If you can withstand this sword, then I shall accept you as a friend!”
“Come on!” Chu Fengmian spoke indifferently; he stood with his hands clasped behind his back, appearing completely relaxed.
“Four Seasons Sword Technique!” Lin Mozhu moved.
His light sword whirled, moving so rapidly it dazzled the eyes, making it nearly impossible to see where the sword actually was.
At the same time, an intense wave of heat rushed towards Chu Fengmian.
Summer.
The sword move Lin Mozhu used from the Four Seasons Sword Technique was of the summer, a blazing inferno that nearly made it impossible to keep one’s eyes open.
“Lin Mozhu is merciless.
He actually used his best technique, the Four Seasons Sword Technique,”
“If it were any other swordsmanship, perhaps this kid would have had a chance, but with the Four Seasons Sword Technique, no young martial artist, other than the other three among the Four Great Talents, could possibly withstand it.”
Seeing this, everyone shook their heads.
Lin Mozhu was right; when he said he wouldn’t hold back, he really did bring out his strongest swordsmanship.
Upon the release of the Four Seasons Sword Technique, there was no possibility that Chu Fengmian could withstand it.
The crowd already envisioned the next moment Chu Fengmian would fall in defeat.
Chu Fengmian was strong, but he was still not strong enough to challenge the top four talents.
The top four talents, rightfully positioned at the pinnacle of Jijing City’s younger generation, represented their formidable strength, not just impressive titles.
“Hiss!”
A voice so faint it was almost inaudible.
A sword, almost silent and without a trace, had quietly approached Chu Fengmian’s back.
In front of Chu Fengmian, there was almost a relentless heat wave, leading all martial artists to believe that Lin Mozhu’s sword would come from the front.
But this sword’s position was actually at Chu Fengmian’s back.
“Feinting east and striking west, a decent move, but the trembling of the sword edge seems not to have been concealed.”
A cold laugh echoed in Chu Fengmian’s mind.
This sneak attack was good, but still, it couldn’t fool Chu Fengmian’s eyes.
At the moment of drawing the sword, the sword edge would tremble slightly, a sound that other martial artists might not notice, but for a Sword Dao expert like Chu Fengmian, it was as clear as a ringing bell.
“Bang!”
The Xuanqing Sword in Chu Fengmian’s hand suddenly drew out.
He quickly turned around, pointing to a spot behind him.
The edge of the Xuanqing Sword accurately landed on the blade of Lin Mozhu’s light sword.
His sword was seen through by Chu Fengmian.
“How could this be?”
Lin Mozhu watched his sword being blocked, disbelief etched on his face.
To accurately land on the blade of his light sword, one had to completely see through his swordsmanship to react appropriately.
His Four Seasons Sword Technique, even the other three among the top four talents, although they could counter it, seeing through his maneuvers was unlikely.
They could only withstand it by sheer force.
His sword, reviewed by a Sword Dao expert, was described as elusive, and that expert was already the pinnacle of Sword Dao in the nation of Wu Sheng.
Being called elusive was the highest of accolades, and surely no other martial artist of the same realm could see through his sword.
Lin Mozhu looked at Chu Fengmian without any more disdain.
To see through that one sword move, even if it might be luck, reflected Chu Fengmian’s extraordinary skill.
“Oh?
Quite interesting, blocking Lin Mozhu’s sword.
This lad has some strength indeed.”
Ao Wuming observed Chu Fengmian and also dropped his disdainful gaze.
Achieving this was enough to earn his respect.
“Boy, take another sword from me!”
Lin Mozhu looked at Chu Fengmian and shouted angrily once more.
He didn’t believe it.
He didn’t believe that his sword could be seen through by another martial artist of the same realm.
As a Sword Cultivator, particularly one specializing in light swords relying on his elusive swordsmanship, if his technique was seen through, his strength would be far inferior to other martial artists at the seventh level of body forging.
“Hiss!”
The sword in Lin Mozhu’s hand vibrated wildly.
On the blade, unlimited Sword Intent gathered.
“Condensing Qi into Sword!”
Countless Sword Qi, ferociously slashed towards Chu Fengmian.
This fierce Sword Qi, hissing through the air.
“The sword isn’t used like that.”
Chu Fengmian looked at Lin Mozhu, his gaze shifting.
Suddenly, he moved.
