Chapter 122: Levels of Sword Intent
Li Qingyi’s strength astonished the entire arena.
That meant Li Qingyi had successfully advanced to the semifinals.
"The level of Sword Intent is truly powerful!" Many disciples from the Li Huo Sect couldn’t help but sigh with sincerity.
The sword strike Li Qingyi had just performed was indeed terrifyingly powerful.
It even seemed capable of threatening a Fourth Rank practitioner.
"Amazing, amazing, our Beichen Sword Sect has advanced to the top four!" Zhao Tianlong said excitedly.
At this moment, his excitement was unprecedented.
So was Xie Tianqiong’s.
How many years had it been?
For so many years, not to mention the top five, even the top ten had always been out of their reach.
Now, at last, they could hold their heads high with pride.
This time they not only took first place in the team match, but they also secured a spot in the top five.
If the people from the sect were to find out, they would be overjoyed.
Long Yan and Zhao Kai were also beyond thrilled at this moment.
A smile also appeared on Xu Ping’an’s face.
Li Qingyi had already approached, her face alight with a gentle smile, exuding an air of spring warmth.
"Not bad, girl, you’ve really kept your strength well hidden," Xu Ping’an teased with a smile.
Girl?
Li Qingyi was taken aback for a moment.
But she quickly flashed a radiant smile.
If girl it is, then girl it shall be!
"I said I would definitely advance, and now I’ve done it. Now it’s up to you, Junior Brother Ping’an," Li Qingyi said with a smile.
"Don’t worry, you’ve advanced; how could I not?" Xu Ping’an said, playfully ruffling her hair.
Li Qingyi was startled once again, but then she laughed even more brightly.
This scene, witnessed by countless disciples, made them so frustrated they could almost spit blood.
The Li Qingyi who was spirited and peerless on stage just moments ago was now having her head petted,
And by a peer?
Those who had harbored any thoughts about Li Qingyi were now thoroughly disheartened.
A moment ago, Li Qingyi captured the hearts of countless Li Huo Sect disciples with her celestial grace, but now Xu Ping’an had shattered them all in an instant.
Countless Li Huo Sect disciples were roaring inside their hearts.
What virtues and abilities does this Xu Ping’an have?
Yet Xu Ping’an paid no attention to these murderous glares and continued to dote on Li Qingyi, playfully tapping her pert nose.
She did not resist, instead, she just wore a smiling expression.
The disciples below watching this scene felt as if their hearts were being twisted by knives.
"I never expected Junior Brother Ping’an to have such a tender side," Li Qingyi teased with a laugh.
Hearing this, Xu Ping’an gave a helpless smile, "What can I do when your performance was too brilliant? If I didn’t do this, there would be too many people thinking about you, right?"
Li Qingyi’s face immediately blossomed like ice mountain snow lotuses.
Xu Ping’an couldn’t help but be slightly mesmerized.
One had to admit, the girl was really beautiful.
At this moment, Li Qingyi’s heart was also filled with joy, feeling like she had carved out a place in Xu Ping’an’s heart.
Although they had not yet defined their relationship, this was definitely a good start.
The next match was Lei Hu versus Chen Tai.
There was no suspense in this battle either.
Chen Tai was sent flying with a punch from Lei Hu.
This time, Lei Hu displayed his level of cultivation.
It turned out that he had already broken through to the First Layer Realm of the Fourth Rank, though he had just entered it.
"He’s already reached the Fourth Rank. It looks like Lei Hu is aiming to challenge Situ Feng for first place," someone in the audience commented.
The crowd nodded in agreement.
Situ Feng’s face remained calm, but his eyes sharpened when he looked at Lei Hu.
"Sure enough, someone has broken through to the Fourth Rank. After the stimulation from your little display, these guys probably can’t sit still anymore," Xu Ping’an laughed.
Situ Feng and Lei Hu had already reached the very limit of the Third Rank Ninth Layer.
Breaking through was just a matter of a moment.
They hadn’t broken through before because they felt it was unnecessary.
Now that Li Qingyi had displayed her Sword Intent and defeated Tang Yu,
they felt the pressure, which was why Lei Hu took the lead to break through first.
"Could it be that Xue Wen will also break through?" Li Qingyi asked, frowning.
"Don’t know, but even if he does, the fight will go on as usual, just a bit tougher," Xu Ping’an said with a calm smile.
Upon hearing this, Li Qingyi also let out a sigh of relief.
She believed Xu Ping’an was not one to boast.
If he could say such a thing, then he must be confident.
"Alright, it’s my turn to enter the ring," Xu Ping’an said.
"Be careful," Li Qingyi nodded.
"Don’t worry; it’s time for Tang Qingheng to pay his debts," Xu Ping’an smiled.
After finishing his words, Xu Ping’an walked towards the ring.
At the same time, Xue Wen also flew toward the ring, looking at Xu Ping’an with extreme disdain in his eyes.
"Finally, it’s your turn. I’ve been wanting to fight you for a long time, to avenge Guan Qing, but you’ve been lucky. Now the chance has come," Xue Wen snorted coldly.
"You can seek revenge on me, but why involve others? You severely injured Tang Qingheng, how should we settle that account?" Xu Ping’an asked coldly.
He had no good feelings for Xue Wen before him.
It was natural for Xue Wen to seek revenge on him.
After all, he had killed Guan Qing.
But he should never have involved Tang Qingheng, let alone with such severity.
Tang Qingheng still hadn’t regained consciousness to this moment.
"Hmph, what do you mean how should we settle it? He was too weak and deserved to be beaten. As for you, you will soon end up the same as him, or perhaps even worse," Xue Wen sneered disdainfully.
Xu Ping’an’s eyes immediately narrowed.
In the stands, both Long Yan and Zhao Kai clenched their fists, their gazes filled with anger.
"Elder Yu, isn’t your sect member Xue Wen going too far?" Zhao Tianlong asked angrily.
"What’s too far about it? It’s just a spar. If Tang Qingheng isn’t strong enough, whom can you blame?" Yu Lin said disdainfully.
"Humph!" Zhao Tianlong snorted coldly but said no more.
What Yu Lin said was right; it was a spar after all.
Xue Wen didn’t make a killing move, so what could they possibly do?
However, it was clear Xue Wen had done it intentionally.
"Elder Zhao, you should worry more about this Xu Ping’an," Yu Lin said.
Zhao Tianlong didn’t speak, but his gaze towards Xu Ping’an also had a hint of worry.
Although Xu Ping’an was much stronger than Tang Qingheng, Xue Wen’s strength was too formidable.
"I hope the boy doesn’t get into trouble," Zhao Tianlong muttered to himself.
In that moment, Xu Ping’an, upon hearing Xue Wen’s words, scoffed in his heart.
The law of the jungle, he had almost forgotten; the rules of this world were indeed so.
"Aren’t you going to break through to the Fourth Rank?" Xu Ping’an asked, smiling.
"I don’t need to break through to deal with you," Xue Wen said disdainfully.
The next moment, a warblade appeared in his hand.
Swinging the blade, he directly cut out a thirty-meter-long blade light.
This slash was enormously powerful, chopping savagely towards Xu Ping’an.
In Xu Ping’an’s hand appeared a shield, and as he watched the approaching blade light, he chuckled softly.
"An attack of this level won’t hurt me; today, I’ll let you see the full extent of my Shield Technique," Xu Ping’an said, smiling.
Then the shield in his hand swatted outwards.
The thirty-meter-long blade light was shattered by Xu Ping’an’s swipe.
"So strong!"
The crowd exclaimed in amazement.
To directly smash the blade light?
What do you think?
