158: Chapter 158 My Third Move, You Absolutely Can't Withstand It!

"Look! It's Liu Ruyan! The captain of Longhua Martial University is personally taking the stage!"

"Go Goddess Liu! Defeat that Qin Yan!"

"Qin Yan has already fought two consecutive matches. Liu Ruyan has waited at her ease for his fatigued self; the advantage is ours!"

Even more heated discussions and cheers erupted from the spectator stands.

Everyone held their breath, looking forward to this collision between top geniuses.

On Arena No. 4, when that tall, vigorous figure with a cold temperament finally stepped onto the stage.

Qin Yan's originally calm eyes instantly lit up.

The Longhua captain had come up; he could now have a satisfying fight.

Liu Ruyan stood still five zhang away from Qin Yan, her cold gaze like two pools of icy springs landing on him.

Her vermilion lips parted slightly, and her voice, carrying a unique coldness and confidence, spread clearly across the arena:

"Qin Yan, you are very strong. Having defeated two of Longhua's top generals in a row, your strength is worthy of acknowledgement."

"However, your winning streak ends here today!"

She raised her jade-like hand, her sword tip pointing at Qin Yan from afar, carrying an unquestionable momentum: "Remember, the person who defeats you here today is named—Liu Ruyan!"

This was her strategy—despise the enemy strategically, but value them tactically!

First, use words to suppress the opponent's momentum and strike at their confidence.

This method had never failed her; many times it truly produced miraculous effects in disturbing the opponent's state of mind and creating opportunities.

Hearing this, Qin Yan's brow twitched imperceptibly.

This captain... she certainly talks big, but she's a bit rude!

Who declares victory the moment they step up?

His expression remained unchanged as he calmly responded with six words: "Talk after you've defeated me."

Liu Ruyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said no more.

Some things only need to be said once; the real contest would still be decided by their skills!

"Both sides ready—Match, begin!"

Sensing the tense, explosive atmosphere between the two, the referee announced loudly!

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Almost the instant the referee's voice fell, two powerful surges of blood qi erupted simultaneously from Qin Yan and Liu Ruyan!

A pale golden halo permeated around Qin Yan, his sharpness fully revealed.

Liu Ruyan was surrounded by an icy blue light, cold and sharp.

"Qin Yan, take my sword!"

Liu Ruyan gave a delicate shout and no longer hesitated.

With a flick of her wrist, four incredibly condensed blue sword forces, like deep-sea ice, instantly emerged on the blade!

Moving her body, the sword light sliced through the air with a piercing whistle, aiming straight for Qin Yan's middle path!

"Ice Soul Cold Light Sword, First Form!"

Qin Yan watched this fatal sword strike that tore through the air, carrying a biting chill.

His expression also tightened slightly.

The moment Liu Ruyan slashed out with this sword, he sensed that her basic blood qi intensity was actually slightly higher than his!

This discovery secretly startled Qin Yan.

One must know, after yesterday's hard cultivation, he had successfully tempered 8 skulls.

His total blood qi intensity had already broken through the 50-cal mark, reaching 502 cal!

Yet Liu Ruyan's blood qi was actually stronger than his!

Although it might only be a slight advantage of a few or a dozen calories.

But this undoubtedly showed that her foundation polishing in the Second Grade Realm had also reached an extremely terrifying level!

"As expected of the number one person at Longhua Martial University, her reputation is well-deserved, and her foundation is profound!"

Qin Yan praised her in his heart, but what followed was an even higher fighting spirit.

The stronger the opponent, the more his potential could be stimulated!

Facing this incomparable, swift strike with its pressing sword force.

He gave a low shout, the 52 cal of blood qi within him surged, and the long spear in his hand was like a furious dragon emerging from the sea, striking first by starting later!

At the tip of the spear, five pale golden spear forces and five even more solid Spear Auras appeared once again.

Interweaving into a destructive golden light net, they resolutely met that blue sword light!

Before the spear and sword even met, the two completely different force auras had already collided violently in the air.

"Clang—!!"

The spear tip and sword edge collided fiercely in the center of the arena at a speed difficult for the naked eye to capture!

The pale golden spear force and the icy blue sword force crazily eroded and annihilated each other.

Qin Yan, relying on his superior five spear forces and exquisite Spear Technique,

forcibly made up for the slight blood qi gap between him and Liu Ruyan.

In this first round of direct confrontation, the two were actually evenly matched; neither could gain an advantage.

Liu Ruyan used the force to drift back several steps and stabilized her figure, her cold face showing no sign of surprise.

She had long seen through the previous two matches that Qin Yan's Martial Arts Skill was extraordinary.

It would be strange if this one sword strike could easily suppress him.

If she could truly one-shot him with a basic attack, she would find it unbelievable instead.

"You have some skill! Take my second sword!"

Liu Ruyan gave a delicate shout, her gaze becoming increasingly sharp.

The blood qi within her body surged again, and the long sword in her hand emitted an even clearer hum.

The chill around the sword blade suddenly intensified!

"Ice Soul Cold Light Sword—Second Form!"

Her wrist flicked rapidly, and the sword light surged!

This Ice Soul Cold Light Sword was a killing move from the core Body Tempering Martial Art she practiced, which could only be used in the Bone Forging Realm.

There were eight forms in total, each more powerful than the last, but also each more difficult to cultivate than the last.

With her current realm and accumulation, she had only preliminarily mastered the first four forms.

When this second form was unleashed, its instantaneous explosive power

was already equivalent to adding a terrifying intensity of nearly 3 cal of blood qi out of thin air!

Feeling the biting sword force rushing toward him, Qin Yan did not dare to be the least bit careless!

He took a deep breath, and the Ink-Marked Spear in his hand emitted a low hum!

On the tip of the spear, beside the original five pale golden spear forces, a sixth incredibly solid spiral spear force condensed once again!

At the same time, the pale golden Spear Aura wrapping around the spear forces also simultaneously increased to six layers!

Six spear forces! Six layers of Spear Aura!

The muscles on Qin Yan's arms bulged as he swung the long spear like a wheel, resolutely meeting that second sword strike!

"Rumble—!!"

This collision was far more violent than the first!

The icy blue sword light and the pale golden Spear Light were like two opposing tides, crashing fiercely into each other!

Erupting with a deafening roar!

Amidst the violent blood qi impact, Qin Yan felt a massive force, a mix of extreme cold and sharpness, travel down the shaft of the spear.

His hands holding the spear went slightly numb.

His feet involuntarily retreated a step with a "thud-thud-thud" before he barely managed to discharge the force.

Liu Ruyan saw the sixth spear force that had suddenly appeared on the tip of Qin Yan's spear.

A flash of undeniable solemnity crossed her cold eyes.

"Six spear forces!

He's actually almost touched the threshold of the fourth-tier skill?!"

She was secretly startled, not expecting the other party's talent and progress in Martial Arts Skill to be so terrifying!

Suppressing the shock in her heart, she pointed her sword tip at Qin Yan from afar, her voice carrying a hint of solemnity: "Qin Yan, reveal your true trump card!

If this is all you have, you absolutely won't be able to withstand my third move!"
