Chapter 413 Bright Spirit Body

Chapter 413: Chapter 413 Bright Spirit Body

Three days later.

Central Plaza.

Almost all the students from the Academic Palace had gathered here, along with most of the Academy Elders and mentors.

After fermenting for three days, the news of Qin Ruxu challenging Ling Chen had already spread throughout the entire Star Academy.

They all wanted to see just how frighteningly strong Ling Chen really was? After all, only a few had witnessed the scene where Ling Chen had slain Ye Fan.

"Whoosh!"

Just then, a streak of light burst forth from the north of the Academy.

The light dissipated, revealing the figure within; it was Xia Yuan, the Palace Master of Star Academy!

"Palace Master!"

Everyone bowed in greeting.

Their eyes were filled with shock.

Unexpectedly, even the Palace Master had been drawn to the duel between Ling Chen and Qin Ruxu.

At noon, amidst everyone’s high expectations, they finally arrived.

Now was the precise time for their duel.

In the center of the plaza, a young man dressed in a splendid brocade robe stood up, looking towards the southwest.

There, was the residence for the new students.

"Here he comes!"

Suddenly, his lips curled up into a smile.

"Whoosh!"

As soon as the words fell, a streak of black light cut across the sky, coming to a halt above the plaza.

It was Ling Chen.

"Junior Brother Ling!"

The splendidly robed young man tapped his foot, a burst of yellow-white Spiritual Power erupting from him, then followed by him soaring into the air.

"Senior Brother Qin?"

Ling Chen stared somewhat uncertainly at the stunningly handsome brocade-robed young man in front of him.

"It’s me!"

The handsome young man smiled: "My name is Qin Ruxu."

"I have long heard of Senior Brother’s great name. Seeing you today, indeed you are as outstanding as described!"

Ling Chen replied with a smile to Qin Ruxu.

Qin Ruxu smiled: "Junior Brother Ling, you are too polite. My bit of reputation, how can it compare to Junior Brother’s glorious name for slaying the Elder of Wangxing Academy?"

"Senior Brother Qin, you are too kind."

Ling Chen smiled slightly.

Qin Ruxu nodded gently: "I’ve long heard of Junior Brother Ling’s name. I have been in closed-door cultivation until recently, and today I’m finally fortunate to meet you; indeed, hearing about someone is less impressive than meeting them in person!"

"Senior Brother Qin’s great name is also well known!"

Ling Chen smiled.

"Enough with the chit-chat, Junior Brother Ling, I want to have a good look at your true strength!"

Qin Ruxu said with a smile.

A fighting spirit arose within him.

"Senior Brother, you will see it."

Ling Chen nodded.

"Good, Junior Brother Ling, make your move!"

"Boom!"

Qin Ruxu’s body shook, and his Spiritual Power roared out.

This Spiritual Power was extremely peculiar, resembling the fierce sun, making it hard for one to look directly at it.

"This Spiritual Power is so dazzling!"

"Yes! It’s literally blinding!"

"This must be what they call Bright Spiritual Power, right?"

"Finally witnessed it!"

...

Many students squinted their eyes, excitedly said.

Following this, Qin Ruxu stretched out his right hand, and a white longsword appeared.

His longsword was also quite unusual, almost invisible under his Spiritual Power.

"A superior Spiritual Weapon?"

Ling Chen’s expression intensified.

As expected of a Princely Heir, possessing a superior Spiritual Weapon at the eighth level of the Primordial Pill Realm.

Moreover, this Spiritual Weapon was clearly custom-made, specifically designed to work with his yellow-white Spiritual Power.

"Young Master Ling, you must also have a superior Spiritual Weapon, right?"

Qin Ruxu smiled.

He had heard that the Palace Master had bestowed a superior Spiritual Weapon to Ling Chen.

"Indeed!"

Ling Chen nodded, and black Spiritual Power whirled out, his right hand similarly revealing a longsword of superior Spiritual Weapon level.

"Superior Spiritual Weapon?"

The crowd on the square gasped in astonishment.

Even the Elders, the majority of them do not possess superior spiritual weapons!

Yet, these two individuals both own superior spiritual weapons!

Being fellow students, why is there such a big gap?

"Ling Chen, is your cultivation really at the fourth level of Primordial Pill Realm?"

Feeling Ling Chen’s cultivation, Qin Ruxu’s eyes flashed with surprise.

He thought that Ling Chen must have concealed his cultivation. It was simply not possible for a late fourth-stage Primordial Pill Realm cultivator to be an opponent for an eighth-stage powerhouse.

Yet, it turned out to really be the late fourth stage.

"Yes!"

Ling Chen nodded and smiled, "However, I have a secret technique that can further enhance my spiritual power."

As soon as his words fell, the spiritual power around Ling Chen suddenly surged, directly reaching the early seventh stage of the Primordial Pill Realm.

"What a magical secret technique!"

Qin Ruxu’s expression became solemn.

He was at the mid-eighth stage of the Primordial Pill Realm, and his spiritual power was comparable to the early first stage of the Palace Mansion Realm.

The gap in spiritual power between the two was exactly three stages.

However, he was not Ye Fan.

He wielded a sword, not a knife.

Therefore, that kind of tactic used by Ling Chen was useless against him.

"Not too bad!"

Ling Chen smiled at Qin Ruxu and asked, "Senior, what kind of Spiritual Body do you possess?"

"Bright Spirit Body!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruxu spoke.

"Hmm."

Ling Chen nodded lightly and said, "Indeed quite rare."

Qin Ruxu nodded and said, "It’s one of the top super spiritual bodies. The spiritual power is quite special, somewhat like the blinding sunlight, not easy to look at directly. So, Junior Ling, be careful."

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior."

Ling Chen smiled.

Perhaps, this could have some effect on others.

But for him, it hardly mattered.

Because he was also a Divine Thought Master.

With Divine Soul Telekinesis, he could ’see’ clearly.

Looking at the two people in the sky, the students below were chattering.

"This time, Princely Heir Qin should be able to win, right?"

"Yeah, very likely! After all, Junior Ling’s technique only works against swords, and Princely Heir’s weapon is a knife."

"That makes sense. In that case, Junior Ling probably has to face Princely Heir Qin head-on!"

"Yes, in that case, Junior Ling’s chances of winning are too small."

"But even if Junior Ling loses to Princely Heir Qin, there’s no shame in that! Princely Heir Qin is a top ten figure in the Star Rankings."

...

Clearly, the majority of people were not optimistic about Ling Chen.

If Princely Heir Qin used a sword, with that magical technique, Ling Chen might have a great chance of winning. But unfortunately, Qin Ruxu used a knife.

These discussions reached the sky as well.

To this, Ling Chen turned a deaf ear.

"Ling Junior, be careful!"

Qin Ruxu spoke.

As the initiator of this duel, naturally, he made the first move.

Qin Ruxu’s mind moved, and dazzling Bright Spiritual Power flowed into the white longsword in his hand. If not for watching his movements, it would have been difficult to detect.

"Fierce Sun Strike!"

Qin Ruxu shouted, and as he lifted his sword, a blinding yellow-white Sword Energy burst forth, slashing towards Ling Chen.

Taking action, he directly used an intermediate Heavenly Spirit Technique.

At their level, they scarcely bother to use lower Heavenly Spirit Techniques.

"Spiritual Technique True Intent?"

Ling Chen smiled slightly.

Truly worthy of the title of Princely Heir, he had realized the true intent of an intermediate Heavenly Spirit Technique. This was the first cultivator he had seen using the Spiritual Technique True Intent.

"Extinguish the Stars!"

Ling Chen shouted lowly, as black spiritual power poured into his silver longsword, and a dazzling light erupted.

"Slash!"

Ling Chen lifted his right hand, and a black Sword Qi was unleashed, slashing towards the yellow-white Sword Energy.

"Superior Heavenly Spirit Technique also enhanced by Spiritual Technique True Intent?"

Qin Ruxu’s eyes narrowed.

This Ling Chen had even realized the Spiritual Technique True Intent of a superior Heavenly Spirit Technique, truly a peerless genius in Spirit Arts!
