On the arena stage, after exchanging greetings, the two did not attack.
Jiang Feng waited for the other to make the first move.
Gu Yuetian frowned, watching Jiang Feng.
"Junior brother, you still won't draw your sword?"
Gu Yuetian asked coldly.
Jiang Feng faced Gu Yuetian with empty hands.
He did carry a sword on his back, but no one had ever seen him use it.
"To win is enough; no need to draw the sword?"
Jiang Feng said calmly.
Gu Yuetian's expression grew colder.
"Hmph! You're worse than Qin Feifan!"
Gu Yuetian snorted and swiftly drew his sword.
The temperature on the stage immediately rose sharply.
A wave of fire surged like a tide, engulfing Gu Yuetian.
"Slash!"
Gu Yuetian slashed his sword.
From the fiery sword energy, a blazing fire snake separated and fiercely lunged at Jiang Feng.
The blazing fire snake's heat was so intense that the void itself seemed to warp.
Seeing this, Jiang Feng activated Floating Light and Passing Shadow movement technique.
He left behind a residual image.
However, the previously effective technique failed this time.
The fire snake seemed to have eyes;
as Jiang Feng moved, it turned its head and lunged at him.
"Huh...? It can track me?"
Jiang Feng flashed again.
The stage was filled with residual images of Jiang Feng, as if multiple Jiang Fengs appeared at once.
After the third image appeared, the fire snake lost track of him.
"Not finished yet!"
Gu Yuetian snorted again, slashing several times.
Several fire snakes appeared on stage again.
Jiang Feng remained calm.
Residual images multiplied: six... seven... eight... nine!
Reality and illusion intermingled.
Spectators below could not tell which was the real Jiang Feng.
None had cultivated Floating Light and Passing Shadow.
To exchange for such a high-level movement technique in Scripture Pavilion, one must have enormous sect contribution points.
Most would choose to exchange for top Sword or Cultivation Techniques instead of movement.
But now, seeing Jiang Feng perform so masterfully, the audience's opinion shifted.
"Hiss...!"
"This movement technique is insanely strong!"
"When we have enough contribution, we must exchange for Floating Light and Passing Shadow!"
"..."
The arena buzzed with chatter.
Laymen watched for excitement; experts glimpsed the secrets.
Deacon Xiao on the stands was dumbfounded, mouth agape.
"Nine residual images?! Oh my...!"
This was extremely close to Floating Light and Passing Shadow Perfection level!
Most crucially, Deacon Xiao cultivated this technique himself.
He had practiced for over ten years.
But only reached eight residual images.
Moreover, his images were less solid than Jiang Feng's.
This Jiang Feng...
Could he be a freak?
How could he cultivate so fast?
Deacon Xiao's face darkened; he felt his ten years of effort was wasted.
He was not alone in his disbelief.
Elder Yun beside him had a shocked gleam in his eyes.
In under five months, Jiang Feng had cultivated Earth Rank movement to near Perfection.
His martial talent was terrifying.
On stage, Gu Yuetian frowned.
He had unleashed his best sword skills, but couldn't even touch Jiang Feng's sleeve.
The movement was too fast to track.
Jiang Feng's level far exceeded a Royal Profound Realm disciple's standard.
Gu Yuetian only felt troubled.
He believed he had methods to counter Jiang Feng.
The rule was that whoever left the arena lost.
So...
"Scorching Flames!"
Gu Yuetian shouted, swinging his sword.
Flames of sword energy swept the entire stage.
Can Jiang Feng dodge?
Isn't he fast?
Gu Yuetian covered the whole stage, leaving no escape.
Indeed, Jiang Feng stopped moving.
Boom boom...!
Flames surrounded Jiang Feng.
But next, Gu Yuetian's expression changed.
He sensed something was wrong.
Poof!
The flaming sword energies wrapped around Jiang Feng were instantly crushed by a force!
Jiang Feng was surrounded by a mountain-shaped seal technique.
The seal suppressed the fire sword energies.
"Mountain-Bearing Art?!"
Gu Yuetian gasped.
A Mysterious Rank Cultivation Technique.
Now he understood Jiang FenTop Body Forgingg's terrifying power.
A casual punch on the Sword-Querying Jade Tablet earned 2,500 points!
Jiang Feng cultivated this Body Forging Technique, and likely at a high rank.
But wasn't he a sword cultivator?
Shouldn't he focus on sword cultivation?
Why devote effort to Body Forging too?
"Hahaha... interesting... this kid is truly interesting!"
Elder Yun laughed loudly.
As Scripture Pavilion gatekeeper, he knew Jiang Feng had chosen these two techniques.
At first, he didn't care.
Body Forging was harder than same-rank movement or other combat techniques.
But now, seeing Jiang Feng had reached the Fourth Layer of Mountain-Bearing Art, he was shocked.
Each level of Mountain-Bearing Art allowed resisting attacks from opponents one small realm higher.
Jiang Feng's true cultivation was Royal Profound Realm Fourth Heaven.
With Mountain-Bearing Art's protection, no one below Royal Profound Realm Perfection could break through his defense.
Genius!
A true martial genius!
In just four or five months, cultivation reached Fourth Heaven!
Movement perfected, Body Forging at Minor Success, Sword Intent at 20%.
At this age, any one of these achievements alone would mark a martial genius.
To possess all four?
A peerless genius!
Elder Yun laughed joyfully.
If Jiang Feng grew more, he would become Demon Sky Sword Sect's hope.
Though the sect ranked top ten in Dashang Divine Dynasty, its situation was not easy...
Gu Yuetian struck fire snake sword energies again.
This time Jiang Feng did not dodge.
He let the fire snakes strike his protective seal.
Bang bang bang!
Under everyone's eyes, the fire snakes shattered immediately upon contact with Mountain-Bearing Art.
Jiang Feng's seal remained unshaken.
"I... am defeated!"
Gu Yuetian said bitterly, unwilling to accept.
His worst frustration was never forcing Jiang Feng to draw his sword.
"Thanks for the match."
Jiang Feng withdrew Mountain-Bearing Art, expression calm.
Many disciples watched Gu Yuetian concede and looked at Jiang Feng in awe.
The dark horse Jiang Feng was far stronger than imagined.
The competition continued...
After a few more matches, Gu Yuetian faced Qin Feifan.
Not surprisingly, after twenty moves, Gu Yuetian lost.
Maybe his mindset was shaken by the previous loss.
Otherwise, Gu Yuetian's strength wouldn't fail so fast.
Several more matches later, the final match was set.
Outer Mountain number one Qin Feifan versus the competition's biggest dark horse, Jiang Feng.
The strongest fight in Outer Mountain Competition, naturally attracting a lot of attention...
