Martial World's
Chapter 19 - Muyi's Doubts
The Sky Fortune Kingdom upheld martial arts, especially in the military. A tournament would be held every three years, for the selection of talents to higher positions, and for raising the fighting spirit of martial warriors.
The requirement for this tournament was that one should be less than thirty years old and have achieved at least a third level body transformation. Thousands of competitors would enter, and after a few tests and three rounds, only fifty remained.
Now the third and final round of the competition begins. The competitors had passed their rounds, and soon only fifty remained.
This is the final battle. The contestants will exert all their hidden abilities and fight with all their might! The stage would be filled with a raging aura of fire as everyone made their final stand!
But the start of the competition did not cause the higher-ups to pay much attention. The competitors on the ground so far have either low strength, or too much difference between them. It had reached the twentieth round so far and there were no lively fights. What Qin Xiao cared about so far was the result.
Competition now has two sides. One of them was the son of a general, a handsome 29-year-old man at the peak of bone forging. In recent years this man has carried out many missions and earned many medals and awards for his service. His strength had been strengthened by these events, and in his possession there were even two treasures; a sword and a suit of armor. The sword also had the carvings of an inscription master; its strength was no small matter!
But on the other hand was a born warrior with humble origins. His name is Tie Feng. His talent was not outstanding, but he practiced diligently to the point of making someone gasp for breath. He was fearless in battle; not even the threat of death could make him waver. He had killed many enemies and gained many rewards, even more than the general's son! Now, Tie Feng was also at the peak of bone forging.
It was rare for two soldiers to have the same cultivation and height at their age. After slaughtering their enemies on the battlefield, in the future it was possible that they would enter a period of pulse condensation and become a pillar of the country!
When the referee announced the two competitors, a silver-clad general smiled happily and contentedly. The one who went on stage was his son!
"Haha, old man Li, your son has really made you proud this time." Qin Xiao smiled as he said this. This silver-furnished general was once under his command and they were old friends.
“The commander is too polite. My poor son has grown up with many rare medicines and still hasn't shown much hope; he really isn't trying to succeed.” Although the silver plastered general said this with contempt, he could not hide his smile. He was very happy and proud of his son.
“Mm, this Tie Feng has very good results, but he will find it difficult to win today.”
Qin Xiao said so because of the difference in martial skills and the difference in rare equipment.
The son of the silver-adorned general had two rare treasures, and they also had inscription master carvings to increase their strength. This Tie Feng came from a simple background; of course he would not have such things.
This battle seemed unfair, but the Sky Fortune Kingdom tournament had always been so. Treasures and equipment were considered part of a soldier's innate strength! In the middle of the battlefield, due to the difference in equipment, if you are cut down by the enemy, can you complain that it is unfair?
It was impossible for an army to supply every soldier with rare equipment, as well as if a soldier wanted to prepare, then their family background was also a part of their strength, and even became an important part.
When Tie Feng took the stage, he unsheathed his four-foot sword. Qin Xiao turned to Muyi who was sitting beside him, "Master Muyi, is that Tie Feng sword also a treasure?"
Muyi stroked his beard and nodded, "The treasure is indeed, but it's broken."
"Oh, broken?" After Muyi said that, Qin Xiao also saw that the tip of his sword had missed. It was a broken sword.
Muyi said, “Destroyed equipment is certainly worse than whole. Not only that, it was Tie Feng's only treasure, whereas Li Qi had two. Their two cultivation levels might be similar, but Tie Feng's martial skill manual was inferior to Li Qi. This battle, Tie Feng will lose
Qin Xiao said, “Although he will lose, this Tie Feng made it this far with a broken sword is also incredible. If in the next battle he could take twenty moves, I would probably be promoted to the army martial hall. Xingxuan, pay close attention to this battle; you will also enter the fifth layer of body transformation. Even though you practice martial skills specifically for women, all beings are the same, so if you pay close attention it will help you.”
As soon as the referee started the fight, the man named Li Qi rushed forward with some fierce attacks. He hoped to end the battle as soon as possible. He has the edge in every aspect! The sooner he gets this done, the better!
He began to utilize a secret skill passed down through the Li family, the 'Sacred Five Mountain Sword Arts'! This kind of swordsmanship is incredible as if a mountain is falling on you. Each slash and stab was accompanied by an overwhelming sense of power. It was able to instantly overwhelm anyone of a lower cultivation level. Even with the same cultivation, it is difficult to defend against an attack that destroys you like countless mountains. Most would simply succumb to a devastatingly heavy attack.
As soon as Li Qi held his sword, the air was filled with whistling winds, as if the entire orchestra was playing a battle song. The sword in his hand was 500 jin; it was the perfect combination to display the incredible power of the 'Holy Mountain Five Sword Arts!' If the quality of the enemy weapon is lacking, then the weapon will just break apart!
Tie Feng saw Li Qi come cutting down and his eyes hardened, his skin changed. He knew about Li Qi's secret move. He sank his waist and steadied his legs. With both hands gripping the broken sword, his body erupted with a turbulent stream of true essence flowing into his blade!
Facing Li Qi's incredible attack, he could only meet directly with all of his strength!
But as Tie Feng poured his true essence into the sword, his heart slightly jumped. The true essence flowed as if.as if it were much more refined than before!
Tie Feng had already owned this sword for several months. Before, when he poured his true essence into his blade, it was like pouring water into a drainage ditch. The sword could not absorb much true essence, and was actually much wasted. But this time his blade sucked up his true essence like a whirlpool. The smoothness of absorption was incomparable, and there was not a single feeling of futility!
How can it be like this?
Tie Feng did not have time to think with Li Qi's sword falling on him, so he simply shouted and slashed his sword upwards!
With the common low-level army martial skill 'Total Annihilation Strike', he met the secret high-level martial skill Li Qi that was passed down through his family, the 'Sacred Mountain Five Sword Arts!' Their blades collided with each loud explosion filling the air. A collision of true essence erupted into the air, and the floor of the area was shattered. Li Qi was forced back three or four feet, but Tie Feng was also forced back a few steps!
Equally matched!
Tie Feng flinched and looked at the sword in his hand, his face filled with a color of disbelief. He had never fought with Li Qi before, and had only heard of him. After the attack just now, he finally realized how terrifying this man was! Previously, he would have suffered some minor injuries, not how he managed to hold back his sword!
He knew for sure that it was not his own strength that increased, but this sword had changed?
Tie Feng did not understand exactly how the inscriptions worked, but knew that they could strengthen weapons. Tie Feng thought they could increase the sharpness of his blades, but after testing it yesterday on some trees, he did not feel anything different, so he was disappointed. He had never realized that inscription techniques used true essence to increase the power of weapons!
Is this really the inscription symbol of a disciple? How could it be so vicious? Although he did not understand the price of most inscriptions, in his heart he actually knew that with such powerful strength and effects, it was impossible for this inscription to be purchased with just 100 taels of gold!
With just a collision, Li Qi had been struck back into reality. This man had taken his sword attack with that broken sword and even came out.Maybe even higher! This guy ... scary!
"Good!" Qin Xiao praised, “The martial skills of ordinary soldiers are able to withstand Li Qi's 'Five Sacred Mountain Sabre Skill' with a broken blade. This Tie Feng is good! How kind! Master Muyi, what do you think? ”
Muyi furrowed his brows and was at a loss for words. Although he and Qin Xiao had almost the same cultivation level, he was also an inscription master, so his understanding of treasures naturally exceeded Qin Xiao. In the short attack just a moment ago, he clearly saw that Tie Feng's broken sword was no less amazing than Li Qi's sword! And that was because the true essence flowing from that sword had even surprised him!
How can it be like this? Looking at the broken blade, he could see that it was not a high-class treasure.
Could it be because of the inscription symbol?
