54: I abuse Qin Nansun with one hand. I don't know what you are pretending to be.

The moment Wu Ping saw those golden pupils, his heart felt like it was grabbed by an invisible hand, and a sense of inexplicable fear swept through his entire body, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

"Impossible!" The old man in his mind also let out an incredible, shocked cry,

"How could such a young boy possess Martial Dao Pressure?!"

Even if it was just an embryonic form, it was enough to shock the heart.

Luo Xi looked at Jiang Yuan with some surprise, thinking to herself:

"It is him..."

Beneath her single-sided glasses, her charming purple eyes carried a trace of brilliance and curiosity as she looked at Jiang Yuan with keen interest.

Compared to when she last saw him at the Thunder Martial Hall, the sharpness on his body had become increasingly fierce and dazzling.

Was he not planning to hide his strength anymore?

"So many people here? They are all here for the hidden map..."

Jiang Yuan spoke.

His gaze swept over Luo Xi, and then over everyone present.

LV6, LV8, LV6...

Finally, his sight fixed on Lin Qingyan.

As expected of her, she was already LV9.

Qin Nansun stared at Jiang Yuan and smiled with interest,

"You are that Jiang Yuan? I have heard about you."

"It seems you are somewhat better at fighting than the rumors say."

Jiang Yuan glanced at him. "Indeed stronger than you."

"Haha, arrogant enough, I like it!!"

Qin Nansun laughed loudly, then narrowed his eyes and curved the corners of his mouth. "Then I will see how many sword strikes of mine you can take!"

Swish! Swish! Swish!

He raised his hand and pointed at Jiang Yuan. Three iron swords flew out from the scabbard floating behind him, shooting towards Jiang Yuan with black sword light.

Jiang Yuan did not move at all. With a shake of his blood Qi, crimson ripples spread from his body and bounced the three iron swords away.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A sharp glint flashed in Niu Zhan's eyes.

Such astonishing blood Qi!

"Oh?"

Seeing this, a trace of burning passion flashed across Qin Nansun's handsome, roguish short-haired face,

"You've got some skills."

With a swish.

Three more black swords flew out from the scabbard behind him.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Six iron swords danced rapidly in the air, surrounding Jiang Yuan and emitting a sharp whistling sound that tore through the air!

"Rip! Rip! Rip!"

Strands of crisscrossing black Sword Qi combined to form a sword formation with astonishing power, closing in on Jiang Yuan. Just the overflowing sharpness plowed straight marks into the hard ground.

"Enemy-trapping sword formation, First Form."

Qin Nansun stood calmly in the distance. "Trapped by my sword formation, not even a mosquito can fly out. What will you do?"

Lin Qingyan's expression was strange.

This kind of attack was worth showing off?

Was his brain fried or something?

Did he even know what kind of freak he was facing...

"Clang clang clang clang clang clang!!"

Accompanied by the metallic clashing sound of Sharp Weapons piercing against steel, Jiang Yuan, whose whole body was covered in crimson blood Qi and looked as if he were draped in armor, calmly walked straight out of the sword formation, while all the black swords slashing at him were bounced away.

Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd and Qin Nansun's incredulous look,

Jiang Yuan held an iron sword barehanded and smiled at him:

"The sword formation you spoke of is just this piece of junk?"

Then, with a slight exertion of force in his hand and a vibration of his blood Qi, he shattered the black sword barehanded!

Qin Nansun fell silent for several seconds. Looking at Jiang Yuan again, his expression changed slightly,

"Are you a warrior-class epic profession, or do you have a Physical Body talent? S-rank? Or SS-rank?"

"I am an assassin."

"..."

Everyone wore an expression of 'are you kidding me'.

Qin Nansun felt as though he was being played and mocked, losing face, and his expression turned somewhat gloomy.

"Don't think you've won just because you shattered one of my swords."

He raised his hand in a point, and all the shattered sword fragments flew back in front of him, recombining and splicing into an intact black sword once more.

Iron Controller Talent - Iron Becomes Sword.

"Plus..."

Holding the shattered and reassembled black sword, Qin Nansun slashed through the air toward Jiang Yuan and spoke coldly:

"Third Form, Startling Thunder Sword Formation!"

The five black swords flying in the air instantly changed their trajectory, crisscrossing rapidly in the air to carve out a massive Sword Qi array!

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

Streaks of lightning arcs accompanied the sword light, intertwining with countless Sword Qi to crush down toward Jiang Yuan below!

"Hiss... Such strong power." Wu Ping exclaimed, "I wonder if my Dragon body can block it..."

Niu Zhan also stared closely at this scene. From this move, he also felt a quite dense Aura of danger.

Looking at Jiang Yuan, whose expression remained calm in the face of the constantly approaching thunder-light sword formation, Luo Xi thought to herself: "How will you deal with this move?"

"Quickly use your mental-type skill..."

There was anticipation in her eyes.

Qin Nansun proudly shouted to Jiang Yuan, who was enveloped and covered by the sword formation: "I advise you to use your full strength, otherwise... you'll either be dead or injured!"

"Is that so?"

Jiang Yuan smiled.

Afterwards.

He threw a punch.

"Boom——!"

An incomparably muffled air explosion sounded like a thunderclap, making Wu Ping's heart skip a beat in fright.

Terrifying wind pressure swept in all directions, blowing up the ground. With a near-crushing Aura, it horizontally pushed and annihilated all the incoming lightning arcs and Sword Qi, mercilessly tearing apart the entire sword formation!

"Wh..."

Qin Nansun hadn't reacted to what was happening yet.

A figure appeared in front of him, and within his field of vision, a hand kept expanding.

Then...

A slap landed on Qin Nansun's face!

"Slap——!"

Accompanied by an incomparably crisp slapping sound.

Qin Nansun's roguish, handsome little face, which received much attention at school, instantly deformed and twisted, and then—

"Bang!"

Terrifying strength exploded, and air waves shattered.

Under the power of that slap, Qin Nansun's body uncontrollably spun rapidly in place like a spinning top, spinning faster and faster until it became a blur, completely unable to stop.

"..."

"?!"

Luo Xi and the others were dumbfounded.

A Prodigy who awakened an S-rank talent and a hidden profession was just like that... knocked flat by a single slap?!

Jiang Yuan said calmly, "With just this bit of strength, I don't know what you are showing off about."

"Hiss..."

Wu Ping gasped, his temples twitching continuously. A sense of shock washed over him, making his scalp go numb.

If he were fully dragonized, he should be able to take this slap... probably...

Only Lin Qingyan looked relatively calm.

But in reality, her heart was also somewhat shaken.

She hadn't expected...

That he would become a Tier 2 transferred Martial Artist so quickly...

When they were both Tier 1, she couldn't beat him; now it was probably even more...

Lin Qingyan bit her pearly-white teeth.

Hateful!

This bastard, why is his speed of getting stronger even faster than herself, who experienced Rebirth?!!

Goddess Lin wore a cold little face, endlessly complaining in her heart.

"Thud!"

After spinning hundreds of circles, Qin Nansun slammed into the ground with a thud, face down.

Transferred into an astonishingly damaging, offense-and-defense-integrated sword formation master, the Qin family Prodigy who boasted the posture of the King Realm was just like that, because of a single slap, lying on the ground with a swollen pig face, completely knocked unconscious, losing all face!

Jiang Yuan looked at Luo Xi. Luo Xi couldn't help retreating half a step, with some fear deep in her eyes.

If she were also slapped into a pig-head spinning top like Qin Nansun, she might as well be dead.

"You guys shouldn't be fighting me for this hidden map anymore, right?"

A genial smile appeared on Jiang Yuan's face,

None of them spoke. Wu Ping didn't even dare to breathe heavily.

Not knowing if it was his imagination, he felt that ever since this black-haired, golden-pupiled teenage boy appeared, the old man within his mental Domain had kept remaining silent.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

As Jiang Yuan spoke, he swaggered past Lin Qingyan and walked toward the entrance of the hidden map.

Hateful guy...

Lin Qingyan harbored resentment in her heart.

But now was not the time to fight him. In case she got eliminated by him, she probably wouldn't even make it into the top ten, which would be a huge loss.

Even if she couldn't get first place, at least she had to get second place...
