Chapter 50: Sword Intent Across the Sky, the Rise of Killing Intent!
Sword Chao Mian.
Started sword practice at three years old.
Released sword radiance at six.
Possessed sword qi at twelve!
Now, he has touched the threshold of the sword path.
A senior elder from the Hidden Dao Academy in the Northern Domain, also a swordsman.
He is currently the strongest swordsman in the Northern Domain.
He once said that with the right opportunity, Sword Chao Mian could be called a Sword Saint!
And what about Ye Qiu Bai?
Unknown to fame.
Only in the late stage of the Purple Palace Realm.
Although he can battle beyond his realm, Sword Chao Mian is a Qi Sea Realm powerhouse.
Moreover, Sword Chao Mian can also fight beyond his realm.
And crushingly so.
Under these layers of halo suppression, how much possibility does Ye Qiu Bai have for victory?
Ignoring someone with layers of halo.
And believing someone unknown to fame, with such a large gap in realm, could win?
No one would think like that.
At the same time, the deans on the high platform also had this thought.
Except Qin Tian Nan!
Huang Tian Ming watched this scene, exclaimed, and said, "What does Sword Chao Mian mean?"
Wu Deshi shook his head, saying, "Chao Mian, this child is single-minded for the sword. Sometimes his thoughts are beyond me."
"Could it be that Sword Chao Mian thinks Ye Qiu Bai is his match?"
At this moment, Qin Tian Nan lightly smiled and said, "Why couldn't it be?"
"Oh?" Wu Deshi chuckled lightly and said, "It seems that Director Qin is very fond of this disciple of yours, seemingly more so than your own disciple?"
At these words, Qin Tian Nan just smiled and said nothing more.
At this moment, Sword Chao Mian looked up at the high platform and loudly said, "Gentlemen deans, do you permit my request? If not, I can first defeat the leaders of the other two regions."
His tone was matter-of-fact!
As if it were a very casual matter!
Huang Yuan and Tian Cheng listened, their faces ugly, but they couldn't refute.
Because Sword Chao Mian indeed had this strength!
After a while, Wu Deshi stood up and said, "Permission granted."
At this moment, everyone looked at Ye Qiu Bai on the martial stage.
The wasteland looked at Ye Qiu Bai, with a complicated expression, full of incomprehension.
Qin Tian Nan looked at Ye Qiu Bai, with an expectant expression.
Huang Tian Ming also stared at Ye Qiu Bai, wondering what he was thinking.
Beside Huang Tian Ming, Jiang Chan clenched his fists.
Sword Chao Mian also looked at Ye Qiu Bai and said, "Come up."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu Bai raised his eyebrows, held his sword in both hands, and said, "Why should I fight you?"
Sword Chao Mian replied, "I can feel that there is a kind of aura on you that is similar to mine..."
"Is that so?"
"Isn't that enough?"
The feelings of a swordsman are very accurate, whether for danger, opportunity, or aura.
Ye Qiu Bai nodded and said, "Then as you wish."
The martial stage wasn't high.
There were nine steps.
Ye Qiu Bai took a step, stepping onto the first step.
Suddenly, sword qi erupted wildly!
The entire space was filled with sharp sword qi!
This sword qi made everyone's faces change!
As if it could cut through everything!
The wasteland, Tian Cheng, and Zhang He all had their expressions changed.
Because from this sword qi, they felt a sense of threat!
Could this be Ye Qiu Bai's true strength?
At this moment, Ye Qiu Bai took the second step.
Stepping onto the second step!
At this moment, a monstrous demonic aura emerged into the world!
The sword qi rampant between heaven and earth intertwined!
Everyone present felt a certain impact on their minds. Those of lower cultivation felt compelled to kneel and submit, while those of higher cultivation were shaken to their core.
The wasteland and others were no exception!
On the platform, Sword Chao Mian saw this scene with an expression of keen interest.
A surge of sword qi swept out, seemingly resisting Ye Qiu Bai's corrosive black sword qi!
On the high platform, Huang Tian Ming leaned forward slightly, watching the scene and murmured, "Indeed, is this a stroke of fate?"
Xin Hongyi gazed at Ye Qiu Bai's figure, somewhat entranced. This aura had already surpassed hers. Was catching up even possible?
With each step Ye Qiu Bai took, the sword qi around him grew stronger, and his aura continued to rise.
People were horrified to discover that Ye Qiu Bai's aura was already beyond the reach of an ordinary late-stage Purple Palace Realm cultivator!
It was approaching the Qi Sea Realm!
At this moment, on the high platform, Wu Deshi also smiled in surprise, "Oh? Director Qin, your disciple has been hiding quite deeply."
The Eastern Domain Academy's dean smiled faintly, "No wonder he was able to defeat Zhou Xing with just one sword."
Zhou Xing was the pinnacle figure of the Purple Palace Realm whom Ye Qiu Bai had effortlessly surpassed.
Qin Tian Nan chuckled, "I don't know much about my students' affairs."
Old fox!
The other three deans couldn't help but curse inwardly.
At the forefront, Jiang Chan clasped his hands together, placed them on his knees, and watched with a look of pleasant surprise.
He had indeed regained his talent.
And he was stronger than before!
Huang Tian Ming frowned.
He had heard about Ye Qiu Bai's lost talent.
Now not only had it returned, but his cultivation was advancing rapidly.
It seemed that Shadowkill needed to move faster.
However, the next moment, when Ye Qiu Bai stepped onto the ninth step of the platform and onto the martial stage...
A sword cry soared into the sky!
In this space, besides the overwhelming sword intent and rampant demonic aura, something else stretched across the martial stage!
Everyone watching was stunned!
The wasteland, Tian Cheng, and Zhang He all had shocked expressions.
On the high platform, the deans from all four domains had solemn expressions.
Qin Tian Nan's face was filled with pleasant surprise.
On the martial stage, Sword Chao Mian was first stunned, then a joyful expression spread across his face. He laughed heartily three times, drew his long sword, and a surge of sword intent enveloped him.
"Indeed, my feeling was not wrong!"
If the scene just now had only stirred up murderous intent in Huang Tian Ming...
Now, Ye Qiu Bai's displayed strength made Huang Tian Ming suddenly stand up!
His eyes overflowed with killing intent!
How was this possible?
How could it be sword intent?
Yes, Ye Qiu Bai unleashed sword intent without reservation!
Different from Sword Chao Mian who had just touched the threshold of sword intent, Ye Qiu Bai's sword intent had already reached the level of a grand swordsman!
How many years had Ye Qiu Bai been practicing the sword to comprehend sword intent to this extent?
What kind of talent was this?
Huang Tian Ming couldn't rest easy without immediately cutting him down!
Immediately, Huang Tian Ming turned to the general behind him and said, "End the match and immediately deploy the Shura Iron Cavalry to slay Ye Qiu Bai!"
"And immediately send a message to the Palace Protector and Grand Minister Ming, summoning them to come personally!"
The general's face turned solemn upon hearing this, nodding as he immediately flew towards the flagship to contact those in the palace!
He knew that Huang Tian Ming had already made up his mind!
Meanwhile, Jiang Chan remained anxious rather than surprised, seeing this scene unfold.
At this moment, Ye Qiu Bai stood on the martial stage, holding a wooden sword with one hand, looking calmly at Sword Chao Mian.
"Come at me."
