One man fights against five top talents!

Whoosh!

The longsword beside Li Qingshen suddenly unsheathed and, without a word, circled the foreigner several times.

The next moment, the foreigner froze, his arms, legs, hands, and feet all snapped off simultaneously, falling to the ground with a clatter.

The longsword, however, did not stop, instantly impaling the hands, feet, arms, and legs on the ground. It then pierced through the foreigner's body and carried him flying into the distance.

Jiang Xuan saw clearly that the foreigner was strung along by the longsword and thrown directly into the teaching building. Afterward, the longsword flew back alone, not a single drop of blood on its blade, and slowly returned to its sheath.

From beginning to end, Li Qingshen was sound asleep, as if completely unaware of what had happened.

Jiang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, noticing something amiss.

While some artisan items can automatically provide protection or even attack for their owner, Jiang Xuan, as a Junior Craftsman, had judged with a single glance that the Grandmaster-level longsword was not of that type.

This meant that the Grandmaster-level longsword required someone to activate it to be effective.

Yet, Li Qingshen was truly asleep and had not secretly activated the longsword.

So, what exactly happened?

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xuan decided to go forward and investigate personally.

Of course, he now understood why Pang Jinghai didn't dare to launch a sneak attack. With this Grandmaster-level longsword, if Pang Jinghai's attack failed, Li Qingshen would likely wake up, and then things would become difficult.

But Jiang Xuan was not afraid; it would be good if Li Qingshen woke up. He could even have a good fight with Li Qingshen, hoping that this number one Prodigy under twenty years old in the City of Flame would not disappoint him.

In just a few steps, Jiang Xuan walked to the ping-pong table where Li Qingshen was sleeping. It was at this moment that a speck of light just entered Li Qingshen's body, seemingly from the foreigner from Griffin Planet.

And the instant that speck of light entered Li Qingshen's body, the Grandmaster-level longsword moved!

With a whoosh, the longsword unsheathed and, without a word, directly slashed towards Jiang Xuan's left arm.

This time, Jiang Xuan did not choose to confront it head-on but leaped back a large step.

Because of his extreme speed, the longsword couldn't keep up at all. After hovering in the air for a moment, as if possessing intelligence, it retracted back into its sheath.

It seemed the longsword, seeing Jiang Xuan retreat, felt the threat had been removed.

Jiang Xuan looked at the re-sheathed longsword and the still soundly sleeping Li Qingshen, a hint of surprise and joy in his heart.

Because just now, the moment the longsword automatically attacked without anyone activating it, he clearly felt a familiar aura.

The aura of a seed of sequence!

“No wonder Li Qingshen can overpower so many Prodigies from martial dao noble families in the City of Flame to become the number one person under twenty in the City of Flame...”

Jiang Xuan grew a little excited. This was the first time he had encountered another opponent with a seed of sequence!

Seeds of sequence were undoubtedly extremely rare, which could be inferred just from the fact that there were only 102 old days seeds, including him.

On the other hand, Pang Jinghai, despite coming from a Planet-level Family, even though he was driven out at a very young age, his knowledge must not be low, yet he had never mentioned anything about seeds of sequence, and seemed unaware that Li Qingshen possessed one.

This was enough to show that seeds of sequence were so rare that even a descendant of a Planet-level Family had never heard of them!

“Just now, it must have been the power of the seed of sequence already activated within him, activating this grandmaster-level artisan artifact. What is his seed of sequence?”

Due to a lack of necessary information, Jiang Xuan couldn't determine it, unless Li Qingshen possessed one of the top six seeds of sequence. But this ability to automatically control a Flying Sword didn't seem to be related to the top six seeds of sequence.

“Haaah—”

Suddenly, a long yawn sounded.

On the ping-pong table, Li Qingshen actually woke up while stretching!

After he woke up, his first glance was at Pang Jinghai, completely ignoring Jiang Xuan, and he asked curiously:

“Little Pang, what are you doing guarding here?”

Pang Jinghai's mouth slightly opened, and he immediately came up with an excuse:

“I, I just happened to be passing by.”

A strange look appeared in Li Qingshen's eyes, but he didn't think much of it. Instead, he glanced at the watch on his wrist.

“Hmm... I've slept for fifteen minutes, that's enough.”

He casually picked up the longsword beside him, and with a light leap, jumped down from the ping-pong table, his movements extremely agile.

After briefly discerning the direction, he prepared to fly towards a square, single-story building.

Jiang Xuan gave Pang Jinghai a meaningful look, and Pang Jinghai immediately understood, calling out to stop Li Qingshen.

“Li Qingshen, wait!”

Li Qingshen's figure, which was slowly rising into the air, stopped. He turned his head and looked at Pang Jinghai strangely, asking:

“Little Pang, is there anything else?”

Pang Jinghai said:

“Where are you going?”

Li Qingshen yawned:

“Oh, you're asking about that. It's nothing, just that Murong Hai, Mu Su, and the Twin Stars of Divine Fire and I agreed to have a decisive battle in the martial arts hall of this middle school.”

Pang Jinghai said in surprise:

“Are Mu Su and the others crazy? They actually agreed to your condition?”

Li Qingshen smiled:

“It's not a one-on-one fight; it's the four of them teaming up against me. If I lose, I'll withdraw from the competition for the martial dao sacred remains.”

Jiang Xuan had been listening nearby, and at this point, a strong interest emerged in his eyes.

From the looks of it, this Li Qingshen was truly strong and truly bold due to his skill.

“Is this what it means to possess a seed of sequence... Even facing Prodigies, they can directly crush them.”

“I wonder if Xuanyuan Feng has a seed of sequence. If he does, it might be a bit tricky...”

As Jiang Xuan was thinking, he suddenly seemed to sense something and looked towards the direction of the martial arts hall.

He saw the figures of the Twin Stars of Divine Fire, whom he had seen before, as well as two other teenagers, one fat and one thin, flying rapidly towards them.

Li Qingshen also noticed the four figures, a confused look on his face:

“Are they that impatient, the four of them...”

Almost the next moment, the Twin Stars of Divine Fire and the other four flew to a nearby spot and stopped.

Then, without a word, the four of them immediately surrounded Jiang Xuan!

One of the fatter individuals spoke with an arrogant tone:

“Lu Renjia, right? Let me tell you plainly, these martial dao sacred remains absolutely cannot fall into the hands of anyone outside our Yan School Alliance and the Three Great Martial Arts Halls. My Revered Master gave a death order long ago.”

Xu Tianyan, one of the Twin Stars of Divine Fire, also spoke with a serious expression:

“Lu Renjia, if you honestly withdraw from the competition now, we won't touch you. It just so happens that you don't seem to have collected many light specks either. But if you continue to join the competition, don't blame us for breaking the rules and ganging up on you with superior numbers.”
