“Especially when you face the people from the Divine Sword Manor,” Mo Chen emphasized, “Their ‘Sky Splitting Sword Technique’ is extremely domineering, with every move potentially fatal. If you feel unable to fight them, immediately admit defeat. Don’t be careless! Saving lives is the most important thing.”
David nodded in agreement: “Disciple understands.”
Seeing David’s calm attitude, Mo Chen felt somewhat relieved, but still harbored a trace of worry.
He knew that this swordsmanship tournament would be much more complicated than it seemed.
The people from the Divine Sword Palace were probably already waiting to deal a fatal blow to the Sword Sect at the conference.
A few days later, the sword tournament began.
The martial arena in Holy Sword City was already filled with people.
In the center of the square paved with bluestone slabs, a white jade arena hundreds of feet in diameter floated in the air, with its edges carved with dense sword patterns.
Under the sunlight, a faint golden light radiated. This was the “Spirit Locking Array” that the successive city lords of the Sword Saint City had painstakingly constructed. This array could not only prevent the aftereffects of the fight from harming the audience, but also imprison all magical and spiritual powers, ensuring that the participants could only determine the winner based on their swordsmanship.
Around the square, dozens of observation platforms were built on the mountainsides, and the flags of the major sects fluttered in the wind.
On the top VIP platform, the person in charge of Swordsman City sat in the center wearing a purple robe, with several white-haired old men sitting on his left, all of whom were highly respected swordsmen in the city.
On the right are the leaders or elders of various sects. Among them, the most eye-catching was Qin Lie, the lord of Shenjian Villa. He wore a dark red python robe, with a pitch black longsword hanging from his waist. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s. He chatted and laughed with several elders beside him, his brows full of arrogance.
“Have you heard? This time, the Divine Sword Manor sent three core disciples. The leader, Zhao Jingfeng, is said to have mastered the ‘Sky Splitting Sword Technique’ to the seventh level, possessing the cultivation of a sixth level Earth Immortal. Among the younger generation, he is almost unrivaled!”
“That’s not all! There’s also Li Hanjiang from the Seven Star Sword Sect, whose ‘Seven Star Connate Sword’ technique is extremely powerful. It’s said that he once cut down a thousand-year-old pine tree with a single slash of the sword!”
“I’m sure Zhao Jingfeng will be the champion this time! Look at his aura, just standing there, no one dares to look him in the eye!”
The discussion beneath the stage churned like a tidal wave, and the eyes of thousands of cultivators were focused on the entrance on the east side of the arena, where the participants from the various sects were preparing to enter.
