835: Chapter 835 Three Consecutive Victories, Chen Shenxiao Qualifies

Standing before Chen Wenqing, Chen Shenxiao held the seven star imperial song sword lightly against his neck.

Seeing this, Chen Wenqing suppressed the fear in his heart and said helplessly, "I concede."

Withdrawing the seven star imperial song sword, Chen Shenxiao smiled slightly, "Cousin Wenqing, you are too kind!"

Fang Tianyu quickly stood by Chen Wenqing's side to treat him.

The surrounding crowd watched this scene, feeling that the sight of Saint Xiao holding his sword against Chen Wenqing was very familiar.

Upon further thought, wasn't that exactly how Saint Yuan held his spear against Saint Xiao yesterday at the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly, although he had pressed it against Saint Xiao's heart?

As the three words "I concede" fell, Chen Wenqing's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

The Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash was too overpowered; his strongest attack had absolutely no power to resist before this Move, not even possessing the ability to clash head-on with it.

It was impossible not to feel discouraged. As the strongest member of the Tongshen Realm, and having reached the high-stage immortal realm after improving his Realm, Chen Wenqing had still been defeated by Chen Shenxiao in just a few Moves.

A simple calculation showed that Chen Shenxiao had defeated Chen Wenqing using only three sword Martial Skills.

If Chen Shenxiao had been serious from the start, a single Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash would have instantly defeated Chen Wenqing, making the first two Moves completely unnecessary.

Su Yuan could withstand the Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash, but Chen Wenqing did not have that ability.

Before the super-grade imperial Martial Skill, the Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash, almost no one among their peers could block it.

Only Su Yuan could block it slightly by relying on his terrifying Physical Body.

The scene remained silent. They had originally thought Chen Wenqing had a chance to block Chen Shenxiao, but in the end, he was still crushed by Saint Xiao.

If Saint Xiao, as the second Saint of the younger generation, could so easily defeat Chen Wenqing, then Saint Yuan, as the first Saint of the younger generation, would only defeat Chen Wenqing even faster.

Thus, it seemed this challenge match could be declared over early.

No member of the Tongshen Realm could block Saint Yuan and Saint Xiao.

"The dust has settled. After this battle, all members of the Tongshen Realm are convinced."

Leng Chenxuan gazed at the arena, the corners of his mouth curving into a smile.

"Saint Xiao easily defeating Chen Wenqing has indeed dealt a great blow to the Tongshen Realm members."

"Saint Yuan has yet to make a Move; everyone will have to experience this blow all over again."

"The most important thing is not the Tongshen Realm members watching the battle, but the three of them: Zheng Hongzhi, Chen Wenqing, and Ding Shanqing. They have received the heaviest blow."

"However, this kind of blow has certain benefits for them. By battling the two contemporary Saints, Saint Yuan and Saint Xiao, they can better recognize the gap between themselves and them, thereby compensating for their own shortcomings."

After Ye Yuandao finished speaking, the surrounding members of the Hall of Saints all felt it made a lot of sense.

Why were Zheng Hongzhi and the other two selected to challenge Su Yuan and Chen Shenxiao?

Not only was their strength the strongest in their respective Realms, but their mentalities were also extremely stable.

Don't look at Chen Wenqing as being severely struck right now; his recovery speed is extremely fast, and in a little while, he will be able to adjust and restore his mentality on his own.

As a descendant of an Immortal Saint, having a stable mentality is a very normal thing.

Even if Zheng Hongzhi and Ding Shanqing's mentalities aren't as good as Chen Wenqing's, they aren't far off.

Both are Geniuses of their age group, possessing very strong independent awareness, and can steady their mental changes.

After Chen Wenqing's treatment was complete, Fang Tianyu announced to the crowd.

"Chen Wenqing is defeated."

"Saint Xiao has achieved two consecutive wins."

After the results were announced, just like Zheng Hongzhi, Chen Wenqing cupped his hands slightly towards Fang Tianyu and left under the gazes of the crowd to return to his original position.

The battle with Chen Shenxiao was over; later, there would be a duel with Su Yuan.

Facing Su Yuan, Chen Wenqing did not have the nervousness he had while battling Chen Shenxiao; there was only endless Battle Intent.

So what if Su Yuan is the first Saint of the younger generation? He really wanted to test just how strong this Saint Yuan was.

And exactly where he was stronger than Saint Xiao.

"The third battle: Saint Xiao versus Ding Shanqing."

Fang Tianyu announced the participants for the third battle and retreated to the edge of Xuantian Square.

Ding Shanqing rose from her seat, her face full of gravity.

Cousin Wenqing had lost to Saint Xiao so decisively; her own outcome certainly wouldn't be any better than his.

She did not know any Star Consciousness-type Martial Skills and could only rely on her Peak Tongshen Realm to battle Saint Xiao.

Without Star Consciousness-type Martial Skills, the disadvantage was still too great.

However, having finally managed to get a chance to battle Saint Xiao, she had to witness his strength no matter what.

Instantly standing at a distance from Chen Shenxiao to confront him, Ding Shanqing cupped her hands and said in a focused voice, "Saint Xiao, please advise me."

Chen Shenxiao also cupped his hands in reply, "Ding Shanqing, please advise me."

In an instant, Ding Shanqing drew her weapon; her weapon was also a long sword, as she was a female Sword Cultivator.

Clang!

A shrill metallic vibration rang out. Ding Shanqing launched her attack first, and three cyan sword beams quickly rushed toward Chen Shenxiao.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Shenxiao did not improve his Realm through Star Consciousness-type Martial Skills, but maintained his initial stage tongshen realm and drew the seven star imperial song sword.

Under Ding Shanqing's stunned gaze, Chen Shenxiao unleashed the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash.

Bang!

Their Moves collided. The terrifying sword beam of the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash directly covered the three cyan sword beams, instantly destroying them completely.

It was extremely fast, rushing in front of Ding Shanqing in the blink of an eye.

Ding Shanqing reacted quickly too, holding her long sword horizontally in front of her, gritting her teeth to resist the slash.

Three seconds, ten seconds, twenty seconds.

After struggling for over fifty seconds, nearly a minute, Ding Shanqing finally dissipated the force of the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash.

Although the slash had not touched Ding Shanqing's body, she felt as if her whole body was falling apart, trembling and looking like she was at the end of her rope.

Ding Shanqing was terrified; Chen Shenxiao was three minor Realms below her and could still unleash such a powerful attack. It was simply outrageous.

At the same time, her heart was incredibly bitter. This was only the second strongest sword Martial Skill Chen Shenxiao had displayed; the strongest, the Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash, had not yet been unleashed.

The Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash was far more powerful than the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash. If resisting the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash was already this strenuous, Ding Shanqing truly couldn't imagine how to defend against the Nine Gods Absolute Immortal Slash.

Next, Chen Shenxiao continuously unleashed the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash to engage Ding Shanqing in battle.

No matter how powerful the sword Martial Skill Ding Shanqing used, Chen Shenxiao always responded with the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash.

After dozens of Moves, Ding Shanqing spat out blood, her back against the cold metal wall of Xuantian Square, and whispered with a face full of disappointment, "Saint Xiao, I concede."

There was no fighting; it was simply impossible to fight.

Dozens of Martial Skills had all been blocked one by one by the Nine-Colored Strange Light Slash; she couldn't even break through a single image contained within the slash.

The gap in strength between her and Chen Shenxiao was like the difference between clouds and mud.

Chen Shenxiao had unleashed dozens of Nine-Colored Strange Light Slashes, yet his breathing was terrifyingly steady, and his expression remained as calm as ever.

Having endured so many Nine-Colored Strange Light Slashes, Ding Shanqing was already exhausted.

As someone at the Peak Tongshen Realm battling Chen Shenxiao at the initial stage tongshen realm, she had absolutely no power to resist.

This battle made Ding Shanqing feel what true despair and true crushing defeat were.

As Ding Shanqing conceded, an atmosphere of despair gradually spread toward the seating area of the Tongshen Realm members.

The Tongshen Realm members had worried expressions on their faces, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

Chen Shenxiao had fought and won against Zheng Hongzhi and the other two in succession, dealing them a crushing blow.

Ding Shanqing's defeat meant that Saint Xiao had passed the challenge match, thereby entering the Inner Hall.

Afterward, Fang Tianyu came to Ding Shanqing's side to treat her.
