Chapter 678: Chapter 678 Holy Dynasty’s Saint Child_1

Dai Yuling defeated She Jiao, a moment that could be considered a minor peak in the tri-sect martial meet.

After all, the Moon Hua Sect has always been the underdog of the tri-sect martial meet, and such a case where the fifth won against another fifth had never occurred before.

It was even impossible to imagine their first defeating a third or fourth from another sect.

This was the reason why the Moon Hua Sect had been bullied and looked down upon by the other two sects for so long.

"This woman must have obtained an ancient inheritance. With equal cultivation, She Jiao could not possibly be her match!"

The higher-ups of the Sword King Sect and the Beast King Palace quickly came to this conclusion.

After all, among the Twelve Sects, each had their own secret grounds, much like Moon Hua Sect’s Moon Blossom Pagoda.

However, the number of those who could obtain an ancient inheritance from them was few and far between, sometimes none for a thousand years.

This time, for several such inheritances to appear just among the three sects of the east was nothing short of a miracle.

The conclusion the higher-ups of the three sects reached was that the Mountain and River Martial Soul had appeared in the world, and the fortunes of the King of People had returned to the Heavenly Dragon Continent, making the fortunes of the land even stronger.

Within the Martial Soul Inheritance, there were ordinary inheritances, ancient inheritances, and even stronger inheritances from ancient Demon Kings and Human Immortals.

These inheritances varied in strength.

Ling Xiao’s Ancient Hell Dragon Martial Spirit was considered the strongest inheritance from within the Moon Blossom Pagoda, though for the time being, he was the only one aware of it.

As for Dai Yuling’s Ancient Gourd Vine Martial Spirit inheritance, it was ranked second, slightly more powerful than Tantai Lingzi’s Spider Goddess Queen Martial Soul inheritance.

"The Moon Hua Sect has really produced a talent this time, it’s just a pity that her cultivation level is too weak, otherwise she might truly wash away your sect’s past disgrace!"

Chen Nanxing smiled slightly and said, "Cao Yun, are you ready?"

"Reporting to the Sect Master, this disciple is ready."

"Very good, then go up and try out this lady’s skills, remember to be merciful, don’t be too harsh, lest such a beautiful girl loses face!"

Chen Nanxing’s words seemed to care about Dai Yuling, but were in fact filled with scorn and disdain.

Such a mocking tone would be clear to anyone who wasn’t a fool.

Dai Yuling was very displeased in her heart!

In her previous exchange with She Jiao, she had not used her full strength, but this time against Cao Yun, she had no intention of holding back.

Cao Yun was stronger than She Jiao, and not by a small margin, but she still intended to defeat him resoundingly!

After taking the stage, Cao Yun casually saluted with his hands, clearly treating it as a trivial matter, then flicked his longsword, a flash of cold light shimmering like frost converging into a strike towards Dai Yuling.

That strike was indeed powerful, in fact, Wang Lang and Li Hu had both been defeated by it.

This time, Cao Yun started with this move, obviously not wishing to give Moon Hua Sect any dignity, intending to completely defeat Dai Yuling in a single strike.

As expected from a sect named Sword King, their sword techniques were the fiercest.

Moreover, they specialized in unconventional attacks, often with strong offense but weak defense, and Cao Yun was no exception.

Faced with this aggressive attack, Dai Yuling put on a cautious expression and then drew a circle in the air with both hands.

Green Vine Guard!

Vines condensed into a massive shield in front of her, and then True Essence surged wildly, attempting to block Cao Yun’s sudden strike.

Her cultivation level was after all far inferior to Cao Yun, so she could only rely on the advantage of her Martial Soul to achieve victory, making no mistake in the battle, otherwise, she would indeed be the one to lose.

Crack!

The sword light flickered, and the Green Vine Guard actually shattered, revealing huge cracks.

Dai Yuling retreated several steps, barely staying within the boundary of the combat ring.

This sparring also had its rules, with a large circle at the center of the Sword Pavilion; if one stepped out, it was considered a loss.

"What a domineering attack! Is this the true power of swordsmanship?"

The disciples of the Beast King Palace couldn’t help but exclaim.

However, there was no such admiration from the Moon Hua Sect.

They had seen even stronger sword techniques; when it came to swordsmanship, Cao Yun wasn’t fit to even carry Ling Xiao’s shoes.

Barely blocking Cao Yun’s attack, Dai Yuling became even more cautious and careful.

The two exchanged blows, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten moves had been made.

During this process, Dai Yuling was always at a disadvantage, but she didn’t lose.

She wasn’t skilled in offense or defense, but she excelled in recovery.

Therefore, a prolonged battle was extremely advantageous for her, a fact sadly unknown to the people of the Sword King Sect who were cheering for Cao Yun, as if the fight would be over soon.

Jian Wuji squinted his eyes as he watched the battle; Dai Yuling’s fighting style strongly reminded him of someone he had once encountered.

That person came from the Sacred Dynasty’s number one sect, the leader of the Twelve Sects, Heavenly King Sect.

In the Heavenly King Sect, there was a supreme genius who, at the age of seventeen, had reached a cultivation level of a Half-step Celestial with ninety percent strength.

Not only that, but this individual’s specialty was precisely this type of sustained assault—if they couldn’t be defeated quickly, one was bound to lose to him.

This individual ranked first among the Six Young Masters of the Holy Dynasty.

He might not seem special, but he was stronger than anyone else.

His name was seldom mentioned because he was the Saint Child of the Sacred Dynasty, the lawful heir to the Holy King.

And no one else!

Thus, he was known to all simply as "Saint Child."

In the Sacred Dynasty, only one with the right to succeed the Sacred Emperor’s throne is called Saint Child; all others are merely Crown Princes.

Power, talent, strength, status, appearance, and so forth.

This Saint Child could almost be said to be a formidable being favored by all.

Even Jian Wuji could not last more than two moves under his hand and was soundly defeated.

The formidable endurance that Dai Yuling displayed in combat reminded Jian Wuji of the Saint Child. He frowned, feeling apprehensive about the outcome of Cao Yun’s battle.

With his keen insight, the longer this battle lasted, the more thoroughly Cao Yun would be defeated.

"Senior Brother Ling, why do I feel like Sister Yu Ling has been at a disadvantage the whole time? Should I go up and teach that Cao Yun a lesson?"

Leng Hao sidled up beside Ling Xiao, saying with a teasing smile.

"I know what you’re up to, kid. Just wait; after Yu Ling finishes this match, it’ll be your turn. As for winning or losing, of course Yu Ling will undoubtedly win. Cao Yun’s attacks are strong enough, but he lacks staying power. Look at his moves now; they’re already weakening, while on the other hand, Yu Ling keeps getting stronger the more she fights!"

Ling Xiao said with a smile.

Wu Xiang, Chang Yueying, Chang Yueli, Golden Light Heavenly Lord, and others could all see this. In fact, even Leng Hao had noticed it, but just as Ling Xiao said, the kid wanted his turn in the fight, so he pretended otherwise.

Just then, there was a sudden change in the arena.

Purple Vine Triple Waves!

Suddenly, Dai Yuling launched her killer move. Cao Yun, lacking in follow-through, was preparing to regroup his sword techniques when three vine whips struck him, causing him to drop his longsword to the ground, and then he was flung out of the combat ring.

"I yield!"

Dai Yuling said with a slight smile.

Although she was a bit breathless, the fight had always been within her control. She had weathered the most dangerous initial phase. By the time it got to the later stages, it became increasingly easy for her.

Defeating Cao Yun was just a logical outcome.
