I Break through Crazily

Tang Yi used his Celestial Eye Technique and saw that his third opponent was actually a Battle King!

Name: Zhou Wenbo

Level: 40 (Battle King)

Cultivation Technique: Red Cloud Sky Demon Decision (Earth Tier Lower Grade)

Martial Techniques: Evil Shadow Sword Technique (Profound Tier Upper Grade), Furious Wave Swordsmanship (Profound Tier Upper Grade), Drunken Dream of Thousand Clouds (Profound Tier Upper Grade)...

Judgment: Utterly feeble (Your power far surpasses your opponent’s. To you, they are completely feeble and pose no threat whatsoever).

...

Tang Yi hadn’t expected to encounter a Battle King Level disciple in the West Mansion Outer Mansion!

Although he was just a Battle King with no Star Level, and his power was a world away from Tang Yi’s, this was still enough to surprise him.

’The ranking boards of the West Mansion’s Outer Mansion Eight Palaces are truly full of hidden masters.’

However, the previous matchmaking had taken a very long time. To avoid keeping Wang Bi’Er, Mu Xianling, and the others waiting, Tang Yi had no intention of wasting time on this disciple, even if he was a Battle King.

With a flash of movement, Tang Yi took the initiative this time, charging toward the disciple named Zhou Wenbo.

SWOOSH!

Tang Yi hadn’t activated his Formless Divine Shadow Step, yet his movements were incomparably swift. Like a bolt of lightning, he appeared before Zhou Wenbo in the blink of an eye.

’So fast!’

Zhou Wenbo saw that Tang Yi was wearing a mask and an examinee’s uniform. ’Is this person really an examinee? How did I get matched with him?’ he wondered. Just then, he saw the masked examinee charging straight for him.

And he was incredibly fast!

Zhou Wenbo could only see a blur before his opponent was right in front of him.

Startled, Zhou Wenbo hastily raised his sword to block.

”Furious Wave Swordsmanship!”

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!

Zhou Wenbo flourished the longsword in his hand.

His sword was not an ordinary standard-issue longsword.

Instead, it was a three-foot-long Soft Sword. The blade could bend freely, and its edge was exceptionally sharp.

As Zhou Wenbo brandished it, the Soft Sword bent and weaved like wave after wave crashing violently against the shore, letting out a low ’HUMMM’.

The endless waves of sword light formed a circular barrier in front of Zhou Wenbo.

Although Tang Yi was so fast that Zhou Wenbo’s eyes couldn’t follow him, Zhou Wenbo’s defense left no openings whatsoever.

His flurry of sword strikes enveloped him in a 360-degree defense.

However... once Tang Yi was in front of Zhou Wenbo, he simply extended a finger and flicked it forward.

Instantly, it didn’t matter how fast Zhou Wenbo’s strikes were, how many flourishes he could execute in a second, or that his 360-degree defense had no openings.

CLANG!

Somehow, Tang Yi’s finger found the Soft Sword’s position and struck it with perfect accuracy. Zhou Wenbo froze, and his flurry of Sword Techniques vanished into thin air.

Seeing this, Zhou Wenbo’s face fell. He stumbled back two steps in a panic. His left hand gripped his right wrist to dissipate the power from Tang Yi’s finger flick. Then, he immediately changed his technique.

”Evil Shadow Sword Technique!”

WHOOSH!

Zhou Wenbo shook his Soft Sword, which dissolved into countless Sword Shadows. Then, the shadows merged back together, reforming the blade.

However, an ethereal, phantom-like shadow now floated just above the Soft Sword’s blade. It was like a specter, and utterly terrifying.

The spectral shadow was bound to the space just above the Soft Sword. Wherever Zhou Wenbo pointed his blade, the specter followed. It was an incredibly bizarre sight.

After summoning the specter, Zhou Wenbo pointed his Soft Sword at Tang Yi. Instantly, the shadow lunged forward with the blade, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it attacked.

”Hmph!”

”Petty tricks!”

Tang Yi snorted. As the bizarre attack approached, he showed no fear, nor did he make any move to dodge. He simply slapped forward, his palm striking Zhou Wenbo’s Soft Sword. With a single blow, the blade was shattered by Tang Yi’s immense power. The spectral shadow attached to it dissolved into a wisp of green smoke and vanished.

”Ah!”

”Impossible!”

Zhou Wenbo stared at the fragments of his Soft Sword on the ground, his mouth agape in utter disbelief. He wanted to say something, but Tang Yi gave him no such chance.

Tang Yi struck out with another palm. A light tap against Zhou Wenbo’s chest was all it took to send him flying.

After Zhou Wenbo flew a dozen or so meters, the strange, soft chime sounded again, and both of them were teleported out of the arena.

The victor was decided in an instant!

Tang Yi was victorious!

A Battle King had been defeated at Tang Yi’s hands without lasting more than a few moments.

The whole process didn’t even last a few breaths; it was over in a flash.

Of course, that was only because Tang Yi had held back. Otherwise, if he had used even a single Martial Technique, Zhou Wenbo would have died on the spot, and the match would have ended even sooner.

Although Zhou Wenbo was also a Battle King, the gap between them was simply too vast. They weren’t opponents on the same level.

...

With Zhou Wenbo’s defeat, Tang Yi’s score soared once again, and his ranking reached a new high.

When the outside world saw Tang Yi’s rank rise yet again, they were even more shocked. An uproar spread as more and more people learned what was happening. A growing crowd rushed to the Ranking Hall, eager to witness the prowess of the examinee with temporary ID 59416.

Normally, the Ranking Halls for each of the Eight Palaces would have a hundred or two hundred people at most. But at this moment, the crowds in each hall had swelled to over a thousand.

The halls for each palace of the Outer Mansion were now teeming with people, packed to the very brim.

And countless disciples were still on their way...

None of this concerned Tang Yi, however. After defeating Zhou Wenbo, he had returned to the vast white space to begin matchmaking once more.

’I need to make this quick. Wang Bi’Er and the others are still waiting.’

This time, however, he was matched with an opponent incredibly quickly. After just a few seconds, he was teleported to the arena.

”I finally get to face you!”

As soon as he entered the arena, his new opponent’s face lit up with delight. A powerful Battle Intent radiated from him; it seemed this opponent had been looking forward to a duel with Tang Yi for a very long time.

”’Finally get to face me? What do you mean?’” Tang Yi asked in confusion.

As he spoke, he casually cast a Celestial Eye Technique on his opponent.

Name: Pei Ziming

Level: 41 (One-star Battle King)

Cultivation Technique: Sky Wave Flying Snow Decision (Earth Tier Lower Grade)

Martial Techniques: Wood Spirit Demon Seal (Profound Tier Upper Grade), Sunflower Wood Demon-Sealing Fist (Profound Tier Upper Grade), Earth Soul Clear Seal (Earth Tier Lower Grade)...

Judgment: Utterly feeble (Your power far surpasses your opponent’s. To you, they are completely feeble and pose no threat whatsoever).

...

’It’s another Battle King!’

’This Battle King is even stronger than the last one, and he even has an Earth Tier Martial Technique!’

Tang Yi was slightly surprised by the information from his Celestial Eye Technique.
