Inverse Sword Mad God

"Spiritual Rhinoceros Sword Technique!"

Having witnessed Lin Xuan's might, Dugu Aotian didn't hesitate, unleashing a powerful swordsmanship.

This too was an Earth-grade Sword Technique, exchanged from the True Spirit Hall, named the Spiritual Rhinoceros Sword Technique.

The power of this technique is boundless; although he had just acquired it and hadn't practiced to Small Success, the might of an Earth-grade Sword Technique is not to be underestimated.

Sure enough, once the Spiritual Rhinoceros Sword Technique was displayed, the sky was filled with sword light, quickly blocking Qiong Qi.

Seeing this scene, Dugu Aotian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan gave a slight "hmm" as he hadn't expected Dugu Aotian to also possess an Earth-grade Sword Technique.

However, he wasn't bothered. In the next moment, his hand seals slowly changed, then he whispered a low roar.

"Qiongqi Transformation, Sky Shattering Roar!"

With his use of the seal technique, in the void above, the gigantic phantom of Qiong Qi also quickly moved.

Although it was an illusion, the Sky Nine Transformations were incredibly mysterious, and the Qiong Qi displayed at this moment seemed like a true Supreme Beast.

It roared towards the heavens as if executing an Absolute Skill.

Sure enough, in the next moment, the spiritual power of the entire sky vibrated, and a substantial shockwave surged forward.

This shockwave was blue, resembling seawater, intensely terrifying, filled with a dreadful power.

If struck by this shockwave, even an Eighth Layered Venerable might find it difficult to resist.

The shockwave was too terrifying, so even with the Spiritual Rhinoceros Sword Technique, Dugu Aotian couldn't withstand it.

The sky filled with sword light disappeared, and Dugu Aotian continuously retreated. Fortunately, this was just a normal sparring match, and Lin Xuan didn't use lethal force, so Dugu Aotian wasn't injured.

However, his qi-blood inside was rolling uncontrollably, unable to mobilize spiritual power for a short period.

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked, their mouths agape, in disbelief.

Two moves, just two moves, and Dugu Aotian was defeated.

That was Dugu Aotian! The top genius among the disciples of the Immortal Martial Academy, and yet he was defeated just like that.

For a moment, all eyes turned to Lin Xuan, full of astonishment.

"Impossible, how can this be, has this kid's strength improved to such a realm?!"

Beside, Li Yunfei's expression was panicked.

Before coming, he was still guessing whether Lin Xuan would win or Dugu Aotian.

In his view, the battle between them was definitely a clash of dragon and tiger, difficult to resolve.

But surprisingly, the situation was one-sided. Two moves, and Dugu Aotian was done.

This was hard to believe for him.

The disciples of the Dragon Sword Pavilion around them were even more excited, clenching their fists with their faces full of ecstatic expressions.

"Brother Xuan defeated Dugu Aotian in two moves?"

"No way, that's too shocking, is Brother Xuan already this powerful?"

"Brother Xuan is mighty and domineering!"

The group was ecstatic.

In the distance, Meng Tian and Zhuo Donglai were also shocked. They didn't expect such an occurrence.

His progress is indeed rapid. Meng Tian's voice was grave.

Zhuo Donglai was equally surprised, "No wonder you valued this kid so much. Indeed mysterious and his combat power is so formidable."

"He probably has almost reached the combat power of a Venerable Eighth Layer Heaven."

The two conversed quickly, upgrading their understanding of Lin Xuan once more.

In the field, however, Dugu Haotian struggled to stabilize his qi-blood inside; his mind was still blank until now.

Because he couldn't accept this situation at all.

Two moves, just two moves!

Thinking back to his full confidence before, believing that this time, he could certainly defeat Lin Xuan, but unexpectedly, the opponent defeated him in just two moves.

Thinking about this, his body started trembling quickly, and finally, he sighed deeply, his expression infinitely desolate, "I lost."

"Thank you for letting me win."

Lin Xuan said lightly, but his heart was immensely joyous.

Indeed, the Sky Nine Transformations was vastly powerful, only using the first transformation, Qiongqi Transformation, and he defeated Dugu Aotian in two moves, completely beyond his expectations.

Meanwhile, within the Immortal Martial Academy, on that ten thousand-zhang-high black stele, the rankings changed once more.

Originally ranked third, Lin Xuan's light suddenly flickered like the sun, rapidly ascending and finally leaping to first place.

And the name changed to a purple-gold color.

Originally ranked first, Dugu Aotian, however, dropped to second.

Following him, Li Yunfei and others each descended a rank.

"Huge news, earth-shattering news!"

"Look, the Xuan Venerate List has changed."

Countless disciples went frantic.

"It's normal for changes, after all, this time the Sky Secret Realm allowed many experts to enhance greatly."

"No, it's Lin Xuan and Dugu Aotian! Lin Xuan's name has already jumped to first place!"

"What? You mean Dugu Aotian was defeated!"

Everyone was shocked. Although they hadn't witnessed Lin Xuan and Dugu Aotian's match with their own eyes, the change in names already indicated the result.

That was Dugu Aotian! All along, the top genius in the academy, someone they had all looked up to.

But now, he was defeated, and not by his formidable rival Li Yunfei, but by a freshman who had only enrolled for a year.

Just one year in school, and he successfully topped the Xuan Venerate List—a feat never before accomplished.

It can be said that Lin Xuan created a miracle.

"No way, didn't Dugu Aotian recently enter the Sky Secret Realm and greatly enhance his strength?"

"Indeed, I remember he had already reached the Seventh-layered Heaven Venerable, could this strength still not defeat Lin Xuan?"

"Heavens, this Lin Xuan is too terrifying!"

"How old is he? Only about twenty, right, yet he's already a Seventh-layered Heaven Venerable, and his combat power is so formidable, his future achievements are probably limitless!"

On this day, the entire Immortal Martial Academy went mad.

Yet, they didn't know that in Lin Xuan's courtyard, even more, sensational events were about to happen.

Dugu Aotian had already recovered from the initial shock, retreating to the side with a despondent expression.

Because next, there was still one more match.

"Senior Brother Meng, please!"

Meng Tian nodded, then his figure flickered, coming into the field.

In the next moment, his aura exploded.

"Brother Lin, let me see to what extent you've grown!"

Meng Tian's voice was steady, then the aura of an Eighth Layer Heaven Venerable burst forth.

Feeling this aura, everyone was frozen in place. This aura was too terrifying; even Dugu Aotian and Li Yunfei couldn't endure it.

The only two unaffected in the field were Zhuo Donglai and Lin Xuan.

Zhuo Donglai himself was already an Eighth Layered Venerable, his strength surpassing Meng Tian, so he wouldn't be affected at all.

However, the other person shocked everyone immensely.

That was Lin Xuan, because he only had the cultivation of a Seventh-layered Heaven Venerable, yet he was utterly unfazed by the pressure of the Eighth Layered Venerable.

"This kid is indeed mysterious, to be able to ignore the pressure of the Eighth Layer Heaven!" Zhuo Donglai squinted his eyes.

Meng Tian also roared lowly, swiftly making his move.

"Eight Extremes Divine Fist!"

Meng Tian's hair flew wildly, like a God Demon, brimming with war intent.

With just a move, he exhibited a formidable fist technique.
