38: Chapter 38 [Heart Sword]! Xu Xiu!!

Xu Xiu's words were like a sharp sword, cutting away Sun Po's misgivings and shattering the shackles on [ Changyou ].

" Changyou! You don't need to hold back anymore!! "

Just thinking about [ Changyou ]'s densely packed MOD panel made Sun Po's scalp tingle.

Yet now, this person was actually confident enough to make such a request?

But in the eyes of the opposite Xu Xiu,

Sun Po was the fool clutching worthless rags like precious treasures.

Her Xu Family used to have eight secret realms in the past, corresponding to the crafting sequence of these eight swords.

One of the eight secret realms was [ Changyou Mountain ]. In other words,

the materials of monsters like [ Changyou ] had always been monopolized by her Xu Family.

It was just that eight hundred years ago, the lifespan of her Xu Family's [ Changyou Mountain ] secret realm came to an end.

The ancestors of the Xu Family at that time heavily slaughtered [ Changyou ] before the secret realm was destroyed to stockpile materials.

And after the [ Changyou Mountain ] secret realm was destroyed, [ Changyou ] also became extinct in this world.

But even so, ever since the outbreak of the secret realms,

her Xu Family had fought monsters like [ Changyou ] for over a thousand years, and had studied the materials they dropped for over a millennium.

She was confident that when it came to understanding [ Changyou ], no family in the world knew more or more extensively than the Xu Family.

Moreover, the blood of [ Changyou ] was one of the materials used to craft the [ Water-Severing ] card,

which was also why the ancestors of the Xu Family heavily slaughtered [ Changyou ] before the secret realm's destruction.

For over eight hundred years, the Xu Family relied on this accumulated [ Changyou ] blood to craft one [ Water-Severing ] card after another,

while also experimenting with how to use other parts of [ Changyou ]'s materials to craft [ Water-Severing ].

Unfortunately, generation after generation, life after life was staked, but they could never succeed.

Water without a source was ultimately difficult to sustain.

[ Changyou ]'s blood and materials were constantly consumed, and by Xu Xiu's generation, only the very last portion remained.

Coincidentally, this last portion of blood and skeleton actually came from the same [ Changyou ].

Perhaps the two of them didn't know it themselves, but

Xu Xiu's [ Water-Severing ] card and Sun Po's [ Changyou ] were products of the same origin.

But at this moment, [ Changyou ] could feel that bone-deep hatred and lamentation.

Upon hearing Sun Po's words " You don't need to hold back ", [ Changyou ] was completely free of shackles.

It waved its hand to cast a [ Water Bubble Technique ] on Sun Po, then opened its mouth to spew a huge torrent of water.

The recoil of the water current directly thrust [ Changyou ] twenty meters into high altitude.

At the same time, dark clouds began to gather in the originally clear sky, and soon a drizzling light rain started to fall.

Moreover, those raindrops accelerated as they fell, shooting towards Xu Xiu like bullets.

Within a mere three seconds, [ Changyou ] successively unleashed four skills:

the combination skill of [ Water Bubble Technique ] + [ Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave ] along with [ Minor Cloud and Rain Formula ] + [ Sunflower Manual ].

This was the first time Sun Po saw [ Changyou ] use [ Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave ],

and he almost instinctively wanted to shout " Damu-shui-xiu-ha ".

But whether it was because [ Changyou ]'s [ Water Control ] capability far surpassed Hoshigaki Kisame from Naruto,

Sun Po still felt that the effect of this [ Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave ] was a bit too exaggerated, far surpassing the original version.

This venue was a full 120,000 square kilometers, and within a mere half minute, the entire competition venue was completely submerged.

Fortunately, there was [ Changyou ]'s [ Water Bubble Technique ],

otherwise Sun Po would probably become the first [ Card Maker ] to be drowned by his own card.

The audience in the venue went crazy looking at the towering waves higher than the venue itself;

who would have known that coming to watch a match would run into a massive flood.

But the next second, the [ Heavenly General ] on the side of the field roared " Gang!! "

A light blue protective shield rose, except this time the protective shield was circular, protecting the spectator stands.

The entire venue seemed to have turned into an underwater world spectator arena.

At this moment, Xu Xiu's eyes also revealed shock:

" Impossible! [ Changyou ] only has the ability of [ Water Control ]!! Where did it get the power to generate water?! "

Sun Po laughed.

The power to generate water? My little one knows plenty more!!

But as expected of a family that had dealt with [ Changyou ] for hundreds of years,

even though Xu Xiu felt that this [ Changyou ] was absurdly strong,

she still had a countermeasure. She closed her eyes slightly, formed a hand seal, and softly spat out a single word:

" Heart!! "

Then she let go of the broadsword in her hand, and the sword actually flew directly to her feet.

Xu Xiu leaped into the air, and the [ Water-Severing ] broadsword carried Xu Xiu straight up into high altitude, reaching a position level with [ Changyou ].

At the same time, a water-blue light sword, identical in shape to the [ Water-Severing ] beneath her feet, slowly materialized in her hand.

In the high-altitude box, the bandage-wrapped Lu Shan couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

" I didn't expect Sun Po to hide so much strength. I didn't even force out its card's [ Water Control ] ability.

But with Xu Xiu's [ Heart Sword ] talent matching her natal sword, Sun Po is still bound to lose. "

Yet the Xu Family head did not come today.

Attending every day, but failing to come on the day of his own daughter's match was somewhat abnormal.

Beside them, Hu Xue, standing behind the Hu Family head, couldn't help a flash of gloom cross her brows. As the only daughter of a major family head in [ Gaoping City ],

naturally there was no lack of busybodies comparing the two. But no matter when, she had always been steadily suppressed by Xu Xiu a head above.

Although there wouldn't be any foolish behavior of tit-for-tat or open and covert struggles,

deep down she really hated hearing people praise Xu Xiu.

Yet no matter how displeased she was, she had to admit that what Lu Shan said was the truth.

Xu Xiu's talent was named [ Heart Sword ],

and its effect was that based on the quality and quantity of the sword-type cards she controlled, it could greatly enhance the [ Card Maker ]'s attributes.

At the same time, it would refine a [ Heart Sword ] in her heart for her natal sword.

During combat, the ability of the natal sword card would be blessed onto the [ Heart Sword ], gaining a massive amplification,

while the natal sword gained the ability to fly through the air.

It could be said that this exclusive talent was tailor-made for the Xu Family's sword cultivation techniques.

Moreover, the sword named [ Water-Severing ] possessed extreme restraint against water.

Therefore, Xu Xiu, who refined [ Water-Severing ] as her natal sword, facing [ Changyou ],

could be said to be in an invincible position from the start.

...

In the arena,

Xu Xiu's slender hand suddenly slashed out with a sword, and a towering and expansive sword-qi curtain instantly appeared in front of her.

Those extremely fast raindrops crashed into the sword-qi curtain as if sinking into the sea without a trace,

directly disappearing upon impact without raising a single ripple.

At the same time, the light of the [ Heart Sword ] in Xu Xiu's hand grew increasingly intense.

Looking at the [ Changyou ] before her, she inexplicably felt a palpitation of the mind and spirit,

but this did not affect her striking out with her sword.

" Courtesy demands reciprocity; try taking a move from me as well. "

The light sword in Xu Xiu's hand dimmed slightly,

and countless [ Water-Severing ] light swords slowly emerged behind her,

truly looking like a sword immortal descending to the mortal world.

She let out a light shout:

" Splitting Light and Containing Shadow! Return of Ten Thousand Swords!! "

Then she pointed the light sword in her hand towards [ Changyou ]'s direction,

and densely packed water-blue light swords submerged the tiny [ Changyou ] like locusts.

The audience off the stage were dumbfounded,

shocked not only by Xu Xiu's long-hidden [ Heart Sword ] talent,

but also captivated by the combat power displayed by [ Changyou ].

" How exhilarating! By past standards, these two even have the strength of the national top five!!

To actually be able to see such a peak showdown at the municipal-level tournament!! "

" Indeed! Not to mention the Iceberg Sword Immortal, this exclusive talent is truly both handsome and strong,

but did you notice that monkey? The Water God reincarnated!! "

" It's a pity, using water in front of [ Water-Severing ], it's really impossible to win!! "

Suddenly, gasps erupted from the spectator stands:

" Look quickly! That monkey is still not dead!! "
