64: Easily won the team leader competition.
Gu Linyuan waved his hand, and with a flash of spiritual light, a massive Arena appeared on the Sect Square.
Su Yun and Lu Siqi each jumped onto the Arena from opposite sides.
At this time, many Disciples within the Sect arrived near the square.
“Eh? What's going on? Is someone challenging someone?”
“I heard it's the team the Sect is sending to Taixuan Holy Land to participate in the assessment.”
“Isn't that Junior Brother Su Yun? And Senior Brother Lu!”
“Why are they fighting?”
“I just passed the square and heard it's because Senior Brother Lu is dissatisfied with Junior Brother Su Yun being the leader!”
An Inner Sect Disciple said in a low voice.
“No way?”
“Junior Brother Su Yun is very powerful. He was already so strong at Foundation Establishment Tenth Layer, and now looking at his Aura, he's probably at Golden Core First Layer!”
“Previously, Senior Brother Lu lost to that Fairy from the Lingfa Sect, and later it was Junior Brother Su Yun who defeated her.”
“Although Junior Brother Su Yun is very powerful, Senior Brother Lu isn't bad either. He seems to have advanced to the nascent soul second layer Realm!
The gap between each layer in the Nascent Soul Realm is particularly large. I heard Senior Brother Lu also obtained a powerful Legacy in a Secret Realm.
The current Senior Brother Lu is probably ten times stronger than before. Maybe Junior Brother Su Yun just happened to win against that Lingfa Sect Fairy by chance!”
“Stop discussing it in the Void Realm here. Let's go up and watch the duel to see who's stronger!”
Dozens of Disciples quickly approached the Arena to watch the battle.
They also wanted to know who the strongest among the Sect's Disciples was.
In less than ten breaths, the area below the Arena was crowded with Sect Disciples watching the duel.
“Su Yun, keep it up! You can definitely win!”
An Yuyao stood below the Arena, waving her jade-like hands, her face full of confidence.
She believed Su Yun could certainly defeat Senior Brother Lu.
“Junior Brother Su Yun, it seems Junior Sister An is going to be disappointed!”
Lu Siqi's face darkened. Although he wasn't interested in An Yuyao,
having such a beautiful and cute Junior Sister cheer for Su Yun still made him somewhat jealous.
Before he lost to that Lingfa Sect Fairy, he was also quite sought after by the Junior Sisters.
But ever since Su Yun stole the spotlight by defeating all the Lingfa Sect Disciples, those Junior Sisters no longer paid attention to him.
The several times he met the Junior Sisters, they were all discussing matters regarding Su Yun.
“Senior Brother Lu, the outcome is undecided, so don't speak too confidently!”
Su Yun said with a calm expression.
“Wow, Junior Brother Su Yun is so handsome!”
“Right, if only he could be my Dao Companion.”
Below the Arena, several tall and exquisitely dressed Senior Sisters shouted excitedly.
“Good, good, good. It seems you are very confident. Then I won't hold back.”
Lu Siqi took out a high-grade spirit blade from his Storage Ring.
While Su Yun stood in place without moving his body, the White Flame Sword flew out from within him as a streak of light and landed in his hand.
Since he obtained the Sword Dao Physique, the White Flame Sword had been absorbing his Power of the Sun within his body.
Now, a faint solar phantom appeared on the White Flame Sword, making it much more powerful than before.
He had a feeling that if he continued to nourish the White Flame Sword within his body, it would one day evolve into a super-grade spirit artifact.
“Junior Brother Su Yun, even if you hold a supreme grade spirit tool, you are no match for me!”
“Senior Brother Lu, you've misunderstood. I didn't take out the supreme grade spirit tool to fight you; it's for flying on a sword.”
“Arrogant!”
“Hurricane Mad Blade Art!”
The powerful spiritual energy within Lu Siqi began to circulate, and the spirit blade in his hand burst with light.
Then he flashed into the air, his white spiritual energy manifesting outside, and a powerful Aura was released.
“This time, I won't make the same mistake again!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the spirit blade fiercely, and a ten-zhang-long white blade light appeared in mid-air.
Then the white blade light, accompanied by a hurricane, attacked towards Su Yun.
Everyone below the Arena felt a powerful wind blowing against them, and their whole bodies felt a faint stinging pain.
One could imagine how much pressure Su Yun, facing this blade light head-on, must be under.
“Good timing!”
Su Yun jumped lightly, and the White Flame Sword in his hand flew under his feet to support him.
In this duel, he didn't plan to use the Space Movement Technique; he intended to go head-to-head.
“Fivefold Fire Control Art!”
Su Yun spread his hands, and countless reddish-purple sword phantoms appeared behind him.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the countless sword phantoms attacked towards the blade light.
The sword phantoms flew in the air and merged into a twenty-zhang-long reddish-purple giant sword, crashing towards the blade light.
The giant sword directly split the blade light entwined with the hurricane in two and continued to attack Lu Siqi.
“Impossible!”
Lu Siqi's eyes almost popped out. He didn't expect the Legacy Cultivation Technique he had just obtained from the Secret Realm to be so vulnerable.
“I don't believe you're this powerful. You must have exhausted all your spiritual energy!”
“Mad Blade Spirit-Breaking Slash!”
The spiritual energy in Lu Siqi's body flooded into the spirit blade. He decided to go all out.
He couldn't be defeated by someone in the Golden Core Realm like last time.
He suddenly swung the spirit blade rapidly, and dense blade lights appeared around him.
These blade lights were entwined with powerful hurricanes; even he would be harmed by this wind if he were unprepared.
Immediately, the blade lights attacked Su Yun like pouring seawater.
At this time, Su Yun had also reached the air on his sword, facing such a powerful strike.
He wasn't panicked at all. With a thought, a golden sword appeared in his hand.
It was precisely the projection of the Sun Sword Qi within his body.
“Sword of the Sun!”
The Glazed Sacred Fire in Su Yun's body was injected into the sword, and the sword body was entwined with reddish-purple-golden light.
“End the battle in one strike!”
As soon as he spoke, the White Flame Sword under Su Yun's feet gave a soft hum, carrying him as a reddish-purple streak of light towards the sea of blade lights.
The crowd below the Arena only saw Su Yun plunge into the sea of blade lights like a sharp sword.
The sea of blade lights was directly split in two, causing a violent explosion in the air.
“What?”
Lu Siqi had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly discovered a sword emitting three-colored light appearing before his eyes.
“Not good!”
“Hurricane Body Protection!”
He immediately cast a defensive Spell, and layers of Spiritual Energy Barriers appeared in front of him.
Unfortunately, it was of no use.
“Crack!”
The sword broke through all the Spiritual Energy Barriers like splitting bamboo and finally stopped at his neck.
“I admit defeat!”
Feeling the intense burning sensation on his neck, Lu Siqi said with a face full of disappointment.
He was now breaking out in a cold sweat all over his body.
Just like during the previous battle against that Fairy from the Lingfa Sect, a trace of fear flashed through his heart.
Is this really Golden Core First Layer? He felt that even the Nascent Soul Fifth Layer wasn't this powerful.
Are those in the Golden Core Stage all this powerful nowadays?
“Junior Brother Su Yun, your strength is much greater than mine. The role of leader should be held by you.”
“Senior Brother Lu flatters me. Senior Brother's strength is also quite good!”
Both Su Yun and Lu Siqi withdrew their spiritual energy and returned to the Sect Head through the air.
Gu Linyuan looked at the five of them with a smile and asked again:
“Who among you still has an objection to Su Yun serving as the leader?”
“If you do, you can directly challenge Su Yun.”
“None!”
The remaining two Inner Sect Disciples looked at each other and replied in unison.
An Yuyao didn't speak, but just looked at Su Yun with a face full of admiration.
