Book 11: Chapter 14 (2)
Puff!
Waves after waves of tides rush towards Yu Ying's face, completely unable to see any sign of slowing down.
Hidden among the myriad of water droplets is a sharp divine sense like a needle.
Break it.
Obstacles.
Go ahead.
Zhou Rui!
At the moment when the battle suddenly reached its climax, a plain white light swept through the entire arena barrier.
Zhou Rui was stunned.
Her sword was only an inch away from Yu Ying's chest, but no matter how hard she tried, it wouldn't move forward even a half-step.
"Why?"
There is no invisible wall ahead.
Otherwise, how could the sword qi, like a wave, fly away sticking to Yu Ying's water-blue hair strands?
She tried to counterpunch Yu Ying's chest with her left fist freed up.
In the blink of an eye, as the wind stirred Yu Ying's clothes, the sword in her hands suddenly reversed backward.
Bang!
The hilt of the sword thrust between her breasts.
"Hmm~"
Zhou Rui, whose rib was suddenly struck hard, emitted a dull groan of pain.
Before she had a chance to react, Yu Ying stepped closer.
Pa.
Zhou Rui couldn't see anything at all, only feeling a harsh blow to her chest, then she flew out of the stage bounds like a broken kite.
Yu Ying nodded lightly.
"I win, Elder Martial Sister Zhou."
She bowed, then jumped off the stage voluntarily.
At last, the host announced hurriedly, "The winner, Yu Ying!"
take place in the blink of an eye.
When Zhou Rui fell, most people still hadn't reacted.
"What happened?"
"In that moment, Elder Martial Sister Zhou seemed to have lost control of her sword."
"…"
Yes.
Zhou Rui also found it.
At that time, her sword stopped because she had lost connection with it!
"My sword has betrayed me!"
How?
Zhou Rui was kneeling on the ground, her eyes wide open in shock as she stared at her own hands.
The girl's hands were originally supposed to be delicate, but they were covered with various scratches.
That is the proof of her efforts in sword-cultivating.
From the moment she entered the Duxian sect, she chose the Unending Sword Array as her main spell.
In order to get started quickly, Zhou Rui came up with an extremely brilliant method.
[Man and sword in one]
No.
To be accurate, it should be cultivating feelings with a sword.
She believes that swords also have feelings, and one day she will take the initiative to foster sword spirits, so she takes her own sword wherever she goes.
Hold it when eating.
Hold it when sleeping.
Hold it when bathing.
Hold it when walking.
Even when going to the toilet, never let go of your sword!
The sword spirit didn't appear, but Zhou Rui did find herself surprisingly compatible with that sword.
The same magic makes this sword more powerful than other swords.
As the saying goes, one road leads to another and all roads lead to Rome.
One day.
Zhou Rui broke down the barriers, suddenly understanding the Unending Sword Array. It was this magic that allowed her, who was originally unremarkable among the new disciples, to rise through the ranks.
She has achieved excellent performance repeatedly, and her cultivation base is improving faster and faster.
It can be said that without that sword, there would be no her today.
Therefore, her feelings for her sword are completely beyond doubt.
But…
Zhou Rui slowly clenched her fist.
Amazingly, her sword betrayed her today, not only throwing itself into Yu Ying's embrace, but also delivering a fierce blow that almost took her breath away!
Ha-ha.
Without the sword, what is left of the Unending Sword Array?
The world is so magical.
After a sad laugh, an infinite sadness welled up in Zhou Rui's heart.
Sobbing.
She struggled to her feet without even glancing at the sword on the ground.
Although there was no wind blowing on Yunluo Peak, Zhou Rui found herself blown off balance.
"It betrayed me."
Sobbing.
Although their past memories were very beautiful.
But it…
"Still betrayed me!"
A far off voice was heard in the stillness with a sobbing tone.
Zhou Rui's stumbling figure soon disappeared in the square.
Nobody laughed at her.
After all…
This is really ridiculous!
Zhou Rui is a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core Stage, but ended up being defeated by Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian's fourth Martial Sister with a plain elbow strike.
Anyone encountering this kind of thing would be deeply affected.
Yu Ying stopped her steps towards the platform where Xiao Jinse was.
She pursed her mouth.
She remembered her terrible experience of being oppressed by Marquis Wu'an to the point of not being able to breathe.
Judge others by oneself.
She shouldn't have gone so far just now.
She should first awkwardly dodge Zhou Rui's sword, grapple with Zhou Rui for a few rounds, and then take advantage of Zhou Rui's fault to strike directly.
So even if Zhou Rui lost, she wouldn't be as sad as she is now.
(Translated by Gravity Tales ??)
"I'm careless!"
Unfortunately.
There is no turning back.
Yu Ying shook her head slightly, contemplating whether she should go console her injured Elder Martial Sister Zhou.
Just then, she suddenly realized that she was being stared at by a scorching gaze.
"Hmm?"
Yu Ying slowly turned around.
She made eye contact with a seasoned man wearing a deep blue cloth, a yellow straw hat, and a knife scar on his right cheek, among the surging crowd.
"!"
Yes.
The first image that came to Yu Ying's mind was Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, with only half of her body wrapped in a bath towel, white in color…
Cough.
Then she remembered the intelligence about noteworthy opponents that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian had earnestly explained to them.
There was one person with short hair and a visible scar on his right cheek.
Tang Chengyue.
Boom.
Yu Ying squinted her eyes.
She glimpsed in the air sparks that glittered brightly.
She had already held back a lot just now, but this Martial Brother Tang could still see that her strength was extraordinary.
Just as Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian said, he is an opponent who should be taken seriously.
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is too careful!"
Even if injured, Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian toils diligently to open up a path for them to go forward.
When thinking about this, a warm feeling flowed naturally from Yu Ying's heart.
Ah, ah.
She really wants to be "seamlessly connected" with Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!
Yu Ying felt regretful now.
If she had entered the Qiongming Peak a few years earlier, then there would have been no other Elder Martial Sisters.
She sighed softly, breaking eye contact with Tang Chenyue, and walking towards the distant stage.
