Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 751: Chapter 752: Behind the Scenes! (1 more update)

”Don’t even think about coming closer!”

Yang Zhan roared lowly and, with a sword move, firmly blocked Gong Cheng, ”Hmph, with just your abilities, you’re still no match for me!”

Although Gong Cheng was the deputy captain of the East Courtyard Sword Team, he had never been very prominent, and his strength was quite ordinary. If Yang Zhan could seriously injure Gong Cheng with one move, the balance of victory would quickly tilt towards North Court Team 2.

After all, in such an official competition, it was not allowed to change players during the battle once a fighter entered the arena.

”Wild Blade—Mountain-breaking Slash!”

Yang Zhan, like a raging bull, lifted his Great Sword high and charged ferociously.

Based on his assessment of Gong Cheng’s strength, Gong Cheng would certainly be unable to continue fighting after receiving this move.

Indeed, compared to a formidable opponent like Goo Tengfeng, Gong Cheng was more of a cerebral player, great at analyzing the battlefield but, in terms of combat effectiveness, merely third-rate!

However, the moment the sword move was unleashed, Yang Zhan’s eyelids twitched violently; the opponent before him was suddenly pulled away by an extremely fast figure, causing his sword strike to miss completely.

And the one who took Gong Cheng away was naturally Ye Nanfeng.

Originally, while Nie Yuanzhou and Zhu Xun chased after two of Ye Nanfeng’s split bodies, his true body had executed the ”Phoenix Double Flying” for a second time!

Moreover, it seemed that he had long planned for this split body to target taking Gong Cheng into the enemy’s Flag Guarding Zone!

”Go!”

Ye Nanfeng let out a low shout, and with a push of his hand, Gong Cheng, taking advantage of this Palm Force, ”swooshed” through midair, abruptly accelerating to break through the Flag Guarding Zone.

”Not good!”

Both Nie Yuanzhou and Yang Zhan were startled, and by the time they moved to defend, it was already too late.

”Lin Long, block him!”

Yang Zhan and Nie Yuanzhou simultaneously shouted out loud; at this moment, only the Flag Guard Lin Long still had a chance to delay Gong Cheng, waiting for their teammates to defend.

Lin Long clenched the Long Sword in his hand, standing in front of the North Court Black Hawk Battle Flag, and coldly said, ”Don’t even think about getting past me!”

”Thousand Square Residual Light Sword!”

While Gong Cheng’s body was still in midair, the Sword Technique was already activated, and countless dazzling sword lights swept out like a torrential downpour. Lin Long’s expression changed dramatically, as he swung his sword to defend, but before he could block three strikes, his Low Grade Treasure Sword was actually cut in two by Gong Cheng’s Sword Qi.

”Pfft!”

An overwhelming surge of Strength rushed forward, and Lin Long felt his Qi-Blood boiling as he was blasted away.

And in that lightning-fast moment, the North Court Team 2’s Black Hawk Battle Flag fell to the ground!

The battle had barely lasted through the time it took to brew tea, yet the East Courtyard Sword Team had, with the force of a thunderbolt, taken the first match.

Moreover, it was solely through the cooperation of Ye Nanfeng and Gong Cheng, without the others even engaging in combat!

”The first match, East Courtyard Sword Team wins, earning one point!”

The judge announced the result of the match, and after approximately half an hour of rest, the second match would continue.

As the judge’s words ended, the crowd erupted into a buzz of surprise.

The East Courtyard Sword Team, fielding such a lineup, had overwhelmed the opposition!

Inconceivable, truly inconceivable!

”That fellow named Gong Cheng possesses an extremely calm mind and strong analytical abilities.”

Li Yunting narrowed his eyes, his voice solemn, ”It looks like the match against the East Courtyard Sword Team will be quite interesting!”

”Let’s go see Liiu Feng.” Li Yunting slowly stood up; the remaining matches weren’t worth watching. Ling Feng and the others, after all, would not enter the arena.

”Liiu Feng, he really became terrifyingly strong after returning from that place. And it seems he still can’t control that power, right?” Thinking of Muu Liufeng, Luu Qingshan’s face showed a hint of fear.

”Now, he has become stronger than me!” A flash of sharpness in Li Yunting’s eyes, he looked again in Ling Feng’s direction.

Similarly exceptional monsters, which of the two would prevail in strength?

He secretly felt some anticipation for the arrival of the final battle.

...

”My thanks.”

On the Great Sword Fighting Platform, Gong Cheng landed on the ground, his face alight with the joy of victory. Even without the team captain, he had defeated a powerful opponent like Yang Zhan!

Indeed, if they had to face the battle head-on, even with a significant increase in everyone’s abilities, without powerhouses like Ling Feng and Goo Tengfeng, they would inevitably have fallen into a hard fight.

But, with Gong Cheng’s perfect tactical strategies, they easily clutched the first match.

At this moment, Gong Cheng found his raison d’être.

His presence was to provide his teammates with even more perfect tactical plans.

”What a brilliant plan! Brother Gong, that last battle was truly splendid. However, the next one won’t be so easy.”

Nie Yuanzhou didn’t dwell on the defeat of the first match but instead stepped forward to salute Gong Cheng.

Perhaps the future Gong Cheng wouldn’t become a brave soldier charging on the battlefield, but he would certainly be a mastermind strategist.

”Thank you!”

Gong Cheng clenched his fist, feeling a bit overwhelmed. Never before had he received such praise from an opponent like he did today.

Both sides left the platform, and the staff reset the flags for the next match.

Of course, in addition to resting, the half hour break was also a time for tactical discussion.

”Well done, Gong Cheng, you did it!”

Goo Tengfeng gave him a hearty slap on the shoulder. This guy had always had an impressive mind; he just lacked confidence.

What he needed was a victory like today’s.

And as Gong Cheng’s old friend, Goo Tengfeng had given him enough trust.

”It was all thanks to everyone’s hard work!”

Gong Cheng was slapped several times by Goo Tengfeng until his arm was numb, but the joy in his heart overflowed from his eyes.

”Haha, the coolest was the ’Phoenix Double Flying’ that Brother Feng taught me. It was so thrilling to completely toy with the opponent!”

Ye Nanfeng laughed heartily. The Heavenly Body Technique ”Phoenix Double Flying” was only at entry-level for him. If he could master it to Great Success, creating over a hundred illusions at once, then he would be truly awesome.

”And the ’Thousand Square Residual Light Sword’, it refined my True Qi to such a degree so quickly!”

Gong Cheng also looked at Ling Feng with gratitude. These secret manuals were all chosen by Ling Feng for them, and he even personally explained and demonstrated them; otherwise, they would never have been able to get started so quickly.

After all, not everyone had Ling Feng’s ”Martial Technique Copying” talent, which seemed to defy the heavens.

”We’re comrades, no need for thanks.” Ling Feng smiled casually; from the moment they were willing to join him to face the almost invincible Royal Sword Team, these people had become Ling Feng’s closest companions in his heart.

...

Following the half-hour halftime break, the members of both Sword Teams returned to the platform to compete again.

This time, they clearly had a plan against Ye Nanfeng’s ”Phoenix Double Flying” technique, with the strongest Nie Yuanzhou launching a powerful offensive that kept Ye Nanfeng busy.

However, Gong Cheng certainly wouldn’t use the same strategy twice. His secret weapon for this second match was Lin Mochen.

After about half an hour of a stalemate battle, Lin Mochen performed a strange Hand Formation, and suddenly, thick vines sprouted throughout the Sword Fighting Arena. The multitude of vines forcefully snapped the opposing Black Hawk Battle Flag, securing a second victory.

Two consecutive wins meant that the East Courtyard Sword Team had secured the rights to advance to the second round.

And all this time, the main forces of the East Courtyard Sword Team hadn’t even made a move...
