Chapter 109: Fight (1)
What just happened?
Confusion engulfed the minds of all those who were witnessing the intense clash between Zou Yang and the opposing team.
Unaware of what had just happened, or more accurately, unable to perceive anything, they found themselves in a bewildering state.
Before they could comprehend the situation, the battle had abruptly concluded.
Only Long Wei, Yin Yun, and Chen Tian were privy to the sight, were the sole individuals capable of perceiving what happened.
"Sword Aura!" Chen Tian thought.
Chen Tian felt a slight surprise upon recognizing the 'Sword Aura,' but it was short-lived as he swiftly regained his composure.
Now, he understood the reason for Zou Yang's confidence.
"Although mastering the first level of Sword Aura is worthy in the lower realm, it holds little significance in the higher realm.
Only those who possess Sword Aura can truly be regarded as sword cultivators there." Chen Tian thought inwardly.
As the guy attempted to strike Zou Yang, Zou Yang effortlessly countered the attack with his own Sword Aura, skillfully defending himself.
He then enveloped his body in a radiant sword aura. Seizing the moment when nobody's attention was directed towards him, Zou Yang adeptly used the first level of Sword Aura, materializing a physical sword.
Unbeknownst to anyone except Long Wei, Yin Yun, and Chen Tian, the sword swiftly shot towards the individual standing behind, who, with a smile on his face, hastened towards the glowing object.
Well, that smile didn't last long...
As the smile faded from the man's face, a sudden, unexpected turn of events unfolded.
A swift and deadly sword shot through the air, aimed directly at him.
Before he could react, the razor-sharp blade impaled in his stomach, piercing through his flesh and causing a surge of unimaginable pain.
The world seemed to slow down for a moment as the gravity of the situation sank in.
The man's eyes widened in shock, and his body convulsed with agony. Blood gushed from the wound, staining his clothes and the ground beneath him.
Just as he was about to scream, the man began to fade away. However, before he disappeared, a look of disbelief was etched on his face.
"Hm?" Chen Tian's gaze remained fixed on the arena, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.
Simultaneously, Zou Yang looked up, and their eyes met, causing a faint smile to appear on Zou Yang's face.
Zou Yang began murmuring words that were barely audible amidst the blaring of the crowd and the distance between them.
However, Chen Tian, keenly observant, managed to read his lips and comprehend his message.
"Hahaha~~" Chen Tian burst into laughter at whatever Zou Yang had said. The genuine amusement in his voice was unmistakable as he continued to chuckle heartily.
Zou Yang's words seemed to have struck a chord with Chen Tian, causing him to burst into uncontrollable laughter.
The amusement was so overwhelming that he couldn't hold it back.
Yin Yun was startled by Chen Tian's sudden outburst of laughter. She looked at him with a confused expression, wondering what could have been so funny.
"What's the matter? Why are you laughing?" She asked in a puzzled tone, trying to understand the reason behind Chen Tian's laughter.
"Hahaha, really, this place is the best!" Chen Tian vaguely answered.
"Huh?" Yin Yun was still unable to understand anything. She furrowed her brows, waiting for an explanation from him.
"Hey! Are you making fun of me?" She thought Chen Tian still remembered what happened minutes ago and was making fun of her for it.
She felt a mixture of confusion and frustration, wanting to know the truth behind his laughter.
"Haha, don't worry It's nothing, I just remembered someone's lovely face."
"Y-You! Ba-Bad! I don't want to talk to you anymore." Yin Yun tilted her head and crossed her arms, sulking.
She turned away from Chen Tian, determined not to let his teasing affect her anymore.
Chen Tian just smiled, then looked to his left, where Zou Yang and Wang Hao reappeared.
Nobody could see it, but there was a deep glint of coldness in his eyes, but it dissipated as quickly as it had appeared.
"Know your place, trash! The gap between a frog and a genius is as vast as the heavens. Understand your insignificance in the face of true talent!"
That was what Zou Yang whispered, barely audible to anyone.
"How amusing. It has been quite some time since someone dared to underestimate me," Chen Tian pondered silently in his thoughts.
The last time someone did that, a sword was shoved directly in that person ass, Chen Tian would make sure that person can't walk for eras.
Upon the return of Zou Yang and Wang Hao, the screens illuminated with fresh numbers, signaling the selection of two new teams for the upcoming battle.
Although the fight lacked intensity and dragged on due to the even match between the teams, in the end, a tragic turn of events occurred when one of the teammates committed a grave error and tumbled off the arena because of the sudden change of a block.
After the passage of several hours, the time had come for the 19th match, signifying that the later match would be the final one.
Tingg~
"The 19th match will be Team 10 versus Team 25," Long Wei declared, providing the matchup for the upcoming match.
It was now Chen Tian's team's turn to fight.
"Are you ready?" Chen Tian asked Yin Yun if she was ready.
Yin Yun looked at Chen Tian, determination gleaming in her eyes. She nodded firmly and replied, "I'm ready, Chen Tian. Let's give it our all."
Chen Tian couldn't help but smile faintly at her lightheartedness. "I believe she forgot about not wanting to talk to me," he mused to himself. However, he chose not to tease her any further, knowing that the match was about to begin.
In an instant, both of them vanished and reappeared within the confines of the arena.
"Hm." Chen Tian looked in the opposite direction to see the other team.
Initially taken aback, a smile gradually spread across his face. "So, enemies do cross paths in the end," he remarked with a hint of amusement.
The other team was none other than Qiu Xufeng and the other discipline of the Immortal Sword Sect.
Qiu Xufeng's reaction was also the same as Chen Tian's, as a smile formed on his face.
'Hahaha! My luck! This damn bastard dared to humiliate me.
I was going to wait till this trial was over, but once you're here on a silver plate, I will take this opportunity to teach you a lesson you will never forget." Qiu Xufeng thought with hatred in his eyes.
There was a tangible sense of tension in the air as the two teams stood in front of each other, preparing themselves for a fierce confrontation.
