Next to Zi Hansha, a genius student with a thin-looking face said in a sharp voice, “We have also long wanted to see, Senior Brother Zhang’s sword technique. Senior Brother Zhang, why don’t you just instruct us?”
With Zi Hansha as their leader, those genius trainees appeared to have come to ask Zhang Ruochen for advice, but they gave off an aggressive feeling, and any fool could see their true purpose.
Snow Shadow Rou frowned slightly and said, “Eldest Senior Brother, after all, Zhang Ruochen has saved us, it’s not too good for you guys to be like this, right?”
“Senior sister, we really only want to ask for sword techniques, we have no other intentions. Don’t misunderstand!”
Zi Han Sha had a smile on his face, but in his heart, he was very jealous, Xue Ying Rou used to treat him as an object of admiration, but now she was defending that brat Zhang Ruochen.
Only by defeating Zhang Ruochen would she understand who was truly strong?
Zhang Ruochen could of course see that why Zi Hansha wanted to ask him for sword instruction must have something to do with Snow Shadow Rou.
The so-called red face is a scourge, the ancients are sincere, but I am not deceived.
Another genius student stood out and said with great displeasure, “Senior Brother Zhang, Eldest Brother is sincerely trying to ask you for sword techniques, you won’t not give this face, right?”
“Right! You’re not afraid that you’ll lose to Eldest Brother, are you?”A conspiratorial voice rang out.
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t a person to be taken advantage of, and since trouble was actively coming to the .Door, naturally, he couldn’t let anyone think that he was afraid of them.
After contemplating for a moment, Zhang Ruochen said, “Alright! Since that’s the case, let’s go through a few moves, hopefully to the point.”
“That’s natural.”Zi Han Sha laughed.
Those genius trainees from the Southern Cloud County, all of them revealed odd smiles as they stepped back and discussed in low voices.
“Make a guess, how many moves will Eldest Senior Brother use to defeat that brat?”
“A few moves? In our Southern Cloud County, amongst people of the same generation, who can block a single move from Eldest Senior Brother? Wu Laosan, you’re also at the late stage of the Heavenly Extreme Realm, can you do it?”
“I’m not even on the same level as Eldest Brother, even if I’m in the same realm, it’s not an easy task to catch a move from Eldest Brother.”
“That kid isn’t a soft touch either, his sword skills are indeed brilliant, I reckon he can really fight with Eldest Senior Brother.”
“Anyway, I think that within ten moves, Eldest Senior Brother will definitely take him down. Eldest senior brother, is a five and a half great genius, that kid can never reach the six great geniuses.”
“To be able to reach the level of a Sixth Jedi Genius, which one of them isn’t a heavenly pride that shakes the Eastern Region and has a chance to be featured in the Eastern Region Wind and Cloud Newspaper. Zhang Ruochen? Lol, I’ve never heard of him anyway.”
……
Of course Zhang Ruochen had appeared on the East Region Wind and Cloud Newspaper, only that it was only once, and it was the end page, so no one would even remember his name.
As for the battle in which he defeated Emperor Yi, there was a chance that he would make it onto the front page of the Eastern Region Wind and Cloud Newspaper, only that there was still some time before the next issue of the Eastern Region Wind and Cloud Newspaper would be released, and right now, the news had yet to spread.
Snow Shadow Rou also retreated to the side, her heart secretly rising in anticipation.
In terms of age, Zhang Ruochen was definitely younger than Eldest Brother.
Although Zi Han Sha looked like he was only in his early twenties, in reality, his true age was already thirty-two years old, and Zhang Ruochen’s age shouldn’t be more than twenty-five years old.
If one were to discuss the fighting strength of the two, it was really not easy to judge.
After all, Xue Ying Rou knew Zi Han Sha very well, that was a true powerhouse, amongst his generation, he was nearly invincible, even the older generation of martial artists there were few who were his opponents.
“Senior Brother Zhang should be a little weaker than Senior Brother, but he is still very young, and in terms of natural talent, he far surpasses Senior Brother.”
“Will he already be a Sixth Extreme Genius?”
Snow Shadow Rou’s heart beat rapidly, and a bold guess surfaced in her mind.
Depending on the outcome of this battle, if he was truly able to compete with Eldest Senior Brother, it was estimated that he would truly be a Sixth Extreme Genius.
“Swish!”
With an elegant movement, Zi Han Sha pulled his sword out and stood horizontally.
Wisps of purple true qi flowed out from his body, wrapping his body and forming a thick layer of protective heavenly astral.
Zi Han Sha was born in a half-saint family, the Zi Family, and cultivated the Ghost Grade Middle Grade technique, the Purple Blood Seal Technique. After reaching the Heavenly Deity Realm, he naturally also cultivated a special true qi, the Purple Cloud True Qi.
Being born well was a huge advantage, being able to cultivate top-notch martial arts texts from a young age, laying an excellent foundation. Coupled with one’s own talent and acquired diligence, one could not be any worse.
Those other disciples from the cold family could only cultivate human level techniques and spirit level techniques at the very beginning, and even if they showed excellent talent later on, it would be difficult for them to catch up with those geniuses who cultivated high level techniques.
Even if they forcibly changed to another technique midway, but their meridians had already been shaped long ago, the effect might not be as strong, and instead, they would also delay a lot of time, which could be considered as a loss for gain.
Zhang Ruochen did not take the enemy lightly and released his Green Void True Qi, forming a protective heavenly astral body.
Seeing the green-coloured true qi on Zhang Ruochen’s body, Zi Han Sha’s pupils shrunk as he laughed, “To actually cultivate a special true qi as well, it seems that the technique you are cultivating is also very powerful. Draw your sword!”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “It may not always be necessary to draw one’s sword when performing a sword technique.”
Zi Han Sha’s heart chilled with a feeling of being belittled.
“More arrogant than me, then let’s see if you have the ability to be arrogant.”
Zi Han Sha didn’t hold back and directly unleashed the strongest sword technique he had ever cultivated, the Red Training Sword Technique.
A Spirit Grade Upper Grade Sword Technique, there were only seven moves in total, and Zi Han Sha had long since cultivated it to the realm of pure fire.
“Swish!”
Zi Han Sha took the lead, executing a move from the Red Training Sword Technique, “Waves of the Red Sea.”
The sword light, like a waterfall, surged wildly, giving a sense of continuity, the sword aura stronger than the waves.
The two were already very close to each other, and in just an instant, Purple Cold Sand’s sword had already reached Zhang Ruochen’s face.
Looking at the sword light that covered the sky, Zhang Ruochen just stood in place and gently nodded his head, Zi Han Sha’s sword skill attainment was indeed very high and had already reached the peak of the Sword Follows the Heart.
Cultivating the sword technique to such a degree, there was almost no breakage anymore.
Only, Zhang Ruochen’s sword attainments were more than a level higher than his, and his sword heart had long been clear, so no matter how many false moves, strong sword qi, and variations he had, it was just like a child dancing with a sword.
“Boom!”
Zhang Ruochen merely grabbed the hilt of his sword and blocked it sideways, blocking Zi Han Sha’s sword and completely blocking his subsequent moves.
“Blocked my Red Training Sword Technique so easily?”
Not believing that Zhang Ruochen was really that strong, Zi Han Sha immediately changed his sword stance and executed the second move, “Red Moon in the Sky.”
Immediately followed by the third move, “Red Hair Flying.”
The fourth move, “Blood of the Red Cloud”
……
The seventh move, “Heart of the Red Son”.
The seven sword moves were fully executed, chopping down in a continuous stream, but Zhang Ruochen’s footsteps didn’t move a bit at all, and he even used only one hand to easily block his sword moves.
Those genius trainees standing on the sidelines had all been stunned.
To them, Zhang Ruochen was like an immovable rock, just casually standing there and easily dissolving Zi Han Sha’s attack into nothing.
Needless to say, right now, anyone could see that Zhang Ruochen was far too superior to Zi Han Sha, and the two were simply not on the same level.
Xue Ying Rou’s jade fingers tightly tugged at her sleeves, her beautiful eyes rippling in awe, feeling that every movement Zhang Ruochen made was so dashing, smooth, and ethereal.
“His strength is also too powerful, Eldest Senior Brother, in front of him, is like a childish boy who is still learning how to use a sword. Why did I used to think that Eldest Senior Brother was so powerful?”
Snow Shadow Rou gently shook her head, after seeing this battle between Zhang Ruochen and Zi Hansha, the unattainable image of Zi Hansha in her mind had completely fallen.
“Boom!”
Zhang Ruochen’s arm turned around and blocked Zi Han Sha’s sword once again.
At the same time, the true qi in Zhang Ruochen’s sea of qi surged rapidly into his arm and shook it forward, turning it into a wave of true qi.
A huge force, from the scabbard of the sword, surged out, shocking Zi Han Sha back nine steps.
“Your sword moves have been exhausted, so let’s call it a day!”
Zhang Ruochen was not interested in continuing to fight with Zi Han Sha and planned to leave.
“Who told you that my sword moves have been exhausted? You’re not allowed to leave, let’s continue the battle.”
Violet Cold Sha was infuriated, and it was no longer difficult to suppress his emotions as he leapt up, holding the sword with both hands, completely injecting his true qi into the sword body, completely activating the inscriptions in the sword body, and slashing down with a full-force sword strike.
He admitted that he was indeed no match for Zhang Ruochen in terms of swordsmanship.
Since this was the case, then he would no longer compete in sword strokes.
It would be a contest of true strength.
The sword of Zi Han Sha was a tenth rank True Martial Treasure Weapon with infinite power, and after the inscriptions in the sword body were activated, it immediately erupted with a reddish-coloured light, spitting out flames like a flaming waterfall that flew down towards the top of Zhang Ruochen’s head.
Zhang Ruochen sighed and gently shook his head.
Right at this moment, Zi Han Sha suddenly realised that Zhang Ruochen had disappeared from his sight.
When he alerted over, he was already a step too late.
Zhang Ruochen appeared on Zi Han Sha’s right side, swung the hilt of his sword, and slapped his sword horizontally, striking Zi Han Sha’s abdomen.
“Boom!”
Zi Han Sha only felt a sharp pain coming from his abdomen, and a huge, huge force was applied to his body. His body flew backwards like a kite with broken strings.
With a loud bang, Zi Han Sha fell butt-first and crashed violently on top of the hard silver deck, falling to the ground.
Zhang Ruochen drifted down from above as if he were a leaf, gently landing on the ground as he said, “Can it end now?”
