Chapter 11: Martial Artist Above All, As Bright As the Sun
In the camp, over three thousand pairs of eyes were fixed on the two people on the high platform.
Even a fool could see that the atmosphere was not right.
Li Fei looked at Chen Fei:
"I heard that more than three hundred military officers have been incorporated into this team?"
Chen Fei nodded: "That's correct."
Li Fei: "Since that's the case, there's no need to withdraw these people; let's proceed with the next action together."
Chen Fei sneered: "So Marquis Jing'an means that these people will be under your command from now on?"
Li Fei: "Yes."
Chen Fei's gaze turned icy, and the bloody aura of battlefield slaughter rose from him, enveloping the entire camp:
"Marquis Jing'an's fame is indeed admirable, but you have never commanded troops in battle. On the battlefield, you're just a novice. You want everyone to follow your command with just a word? I want to ask—on what grounds?"
Li Fei met his gaze and said word for word:
"There's no new or old on the battlefield, only strength and weakness! Only the strong can keep more people alive and lead everyone to kill the enemy and achieve glory! Has General Chen battled for years yet doesn't understand this principle?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fei revealed a ferocious smile:
"So you think you are definitely stronger than me?"
Li Fei clasped one hand behind him and said nothing.
But that posture made it clear to everyone—yes, of course!
"Fine, let everyone bear witness."
Chen Fei beckoned with one hand, and a long spear pierced the air, tearing the sky, flying into his hand.
With the spear in hand, his entire aura intensified:
"Chen Fei of the Green Frost Army, at your service!"
Li Fei did not rush to spar with him but instead turned to look below the platform:
"Someone come here."
After waiting for a few seconds, a man ran out from the crowd:
"Ding Chengyun, disciple of the Dragon Elephant Sect, greets the Marquis."
The Nightmare Sect has two affiliate sects, both focusing on martial arts.
One is the Moon Concealment Saber Sect, the other is the Dragon Elephant Sect.
This Ding Chengyun stepped forward as recommended by the Nightmare Sect.
Li Fei spread his arms, and the dark gold robe on his body automatically fell off, flying into Ding Chengyun's hands.
He then glanced at Chen Fei and also tossed the Ghost Slash Blade in his hand to Ding Chengyun:
"Hold these well for me."
Ding Chengyun held the clothes and blade with both hands, excitement evident in his expression: "Yes, rest assured Marquis!"
Observing Li Fei taking off his Golden Silk Jade Qilin Armor, Chen Fei knew it was to ensure fairness in their duel.
After all, a Level 7 Divine Clothes alone could influence the outcome between martial arts masters.
But Li Fei not using a weapon signified utter contempt to Chen Fei!
Anger flared in his eyes, but he said nothing more.
Words at this moment paled in comparison to the satisfaction of bringing Li Fei down!
"Come on."
Li Fei said casually to Chen Fei.
As his voice fell, Chen Fei didn't immediately attack; instead, he leapt forcefully upward, flying into the sky.
Howling winds swirled around him, making him light as a feather, rising with the wind!
This was Chen Fei's divine skill—[Qi Manipulation].
[Water Control] divine skill commands absolute control over water; [Qi Manipulation] extends absolute control over gases.
Riding the winds between heaven and earth, commanding Qi over eighty thousand miles!
With [Qi Manipulation], Chen Fei gained the ability to fly.
Within moments, he was over a hundred meters in the air, beckoning Li Fei below.
He knew Li Fei had Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts, not only a Martial Arts Master but also a True Master of the Magic Dao.
A True Master's magic can affect not just the mind but reality itself; with True Power, even a simple Wind Control Technique could stir winds to fly.
However, Wind Control Technique fares actions against [Qi Manipulation] divine skill are completely incomparable, being thoroughly suppressed!
Martial Artists with [Qi Manipulation] are recognized as the "King of Air Combat"!
Even if Li Fei can fly, he stands no chance against Chen Fei in the air.
That's why Chen Fei immediately chose to ascend.
The tactics of warfare: the strong attack the weak, and the long strike the short!
Though angry, Chen Fei was not swayed by emotion; once in a fight, he regarded Li Fei as the enemy.
On the battlefield, any act of underestimating the enemy is foolish!
Li Fei looked up at the airborne Chen Fei and, with a thought, a gust of wind lifted him off the ground, flying upward.
Seeing Li Fei dare use a Wind Control Technique to rise into the air for battle, Chen Fei was secretly delighted, waiting for Li Fei to reach a hundred meters before using [Qi Manipulation] to ruffle the winds around Li Fei.
Instantly, Li Fei's Wind Control Technique failed, and he began to plummet!
He calmly stepped forward and vanished from sight.
In the following instant, it was as if the Heavenly Gate opened above Chen Fei's head!
Like a tidal wave, the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth surged from beyond the gate into Li Fei, who suddenly appeared behind Chen Fei.
Li Fei slammed his fist at Chen Fei's back!
Green Protective Force transformed into a circular mirror, reflecting the whole azure sky.
Tao Power—[Myriad Sky Reflection].
This was a top-notch defensive technique, able to defend, unload force, and even rebound the opponent's attacks.
But under Li Fei's punch, it was like a real mirror, shattering instantly!
Chen Fei didn't turn around; the wind howled, seeming to explode a shockwave between them, forcibly separating them.
Facing Li Fei once again, blood trickled from the corner of Chen Fei's mouth, yet his expression remained calm.
Although struck by a punch, he discerned two of his opponent's divine skills, so it wasn't a loss.
Plus, the opponent's punch wasn't overly forceful.
He's worthy to battle!
Even when Li Fei deflected a True Monarch's blow in front of everyone, those unaware of the circumstances believed it was because the 'Military God' Wenren Zheng was present to protect Li Fei just in time.
