#944 - Chapter 944
Mu Qianqian, who was watching the battle with Ye Wuxin, saw the true situation on the stage.
After listening to Ye Wuxin's analysis of the situation, Mu Qianqian shook her head, disagreeing.
"That's not right, Wuxin, look. Although Fourth Brother's speed is faster than that disciple of Martial Peak, look at the weapon used by the Martial Peak disciple. It's a saber. Fourth Brother's sword is at a disadvantage in comparison. Moreover, the Martial Peak disciple is more physically imposing than Fourth Brother. If Fourth Brother clashes head-on with the Martial Peak disciple, the situation will be unfavorable to Fourth Brother."
Mu Qianqian frowned slightly, stating the current battle situation.
"Ah!" After listening to Mu Qianqian's analysis, Ye Wuxin looked more carefully at the battle between Ye Xiaoyao and Xiao Zhang, and also noticed that Ye Xiaoyao's Overturning Rain Sword trembled slightly every time it collided with Xiao Zhang's Golden Back Broadsword.
"Ye Xiaoyao, hang in there!" Ye Wuxin could only cheer for Ye Xiaoyao remotely from the stands.
As time passed, Ye Xiaoyao's trembling became more obvious after the Overturning Rain Sword collided with Xiao Zhang's Golden Back Broadsword.
"Yah~ ha!" Before Ye Xiaoyao could rest for a moment, Xiao Zhang saw Ye Xiaoyao's sword trembling, seized the opportunity, and soared into the air.
Xiao Zhang didn't give Ye Xiaoyao time to react, infusing spiritual power into the Golden Back Broadsword, wanting to end the battle with one strike.
"Thunderclap Severing Strike!" Xiao Zhang shouted, using his signature move.
This strike condensed Xiao Zhang's entire body of spiritual power, and the momentum of descending from the sky seemed to crush the earth.
Ye Xiaoyao had heard that Martial Peak excelled at using sabers, and the "Thunderclap Severing Strike" was a major move used by Martial Peak to defend the Xuanwu Assembly arena.
It seemed he had underestimated this Xiao Zhang, who would actually use this major move at this time.
Facing Xiao Zhang's "Thunderclap Severing Strike," it was too late for Ye Xiaoyao to retreat.
Ye Xiaoyao formed a hand seal with both hands, controlling the Overturning Rain.
Concentrating spiritual energy, he controlled the sword with qi!
The blade of the Overturning Rain Sword faced Xiao Zhang's direction, and the sword emitted a blue light, protecting Ye Xiaoyao and resisting Xiao Zhang's attack.
Ye Xiaoyao increased his spiritual power, resisting desperately.
The gold inlaid on the back of the Golden Back Broadsword shone brightly under the effect of the spiritual power infusion, the saber technique heavy and fierce!
"You can't withstand it!" Xiao Zhang increased his spiritual power again, exerting the power of the Golden Back Broadsword to the extreme.
Ye Xiaoyao quickly gripped the sword hilt with both hands, holding the sword horizontally to resist Xiao Zhang's劈strike. This pressure directly caused Ye Xiaoyao to kneel on one knee.
The fusion of strength and saber technique made Ye Xiaoyao's face contorted.
"Master, look quickly, Fourth Brother can't hold on anymore!" Ye Wuxin's shout caused Ye Kong, who was watching Xiaoshan's battle, to shift his gaze.
Ye Kong saw the current situation without showing any change, on the other side, the Martial Peak stands.
Xiao Wu had been closely monitoring the battle between Xiao Zhang and Ye Xiaoyao. Seeing Ye Xiaoyao being suppressed by Xiao Zhang, a smug smile appeared on Xiao Wu's stern face.
Xiao Wu looked towards the Xiaoyao Peak stands and found that Ye Kong's expression didn't change at all after seeing Ye Xiaoyao's situation.
"Heh~ Knowing he would lose, that guy Ye Kong is too lazy to even watch." Xiao Wu took a sip of tea triumphantly, as if victory was in his grasp.
Just as Ye Xiaoyao was about to lose, the sky suddenly changed from sunny to overcast, and huge dark clouds covered the sun, and a slight drizzle began to fall.
The sudden change in the sky did not affect the progress of the match.
Raindrops fell on the blade of the Overturning Rain Sword, and the Overturning Rain Sword seemed to gain the power of nature, emitting a violent tremor.
Ye Xiaoyao sensed the power of the Overturning Rain Sword increasing, increased his spiritual power, and cooperated with the Overturning Rain Sword to strike back against Xiao Zhang's strike.
The Golden Back Broadsword, along with Xiao Zhang, was knocked away by the powerful force, and Xiao Zhang staggered backward.
Xiao Zhang didn't expect Ye Xiaoyao to be able to counter his Thunderclap Severing Strike, and looked at Ye Xiaoyao in stunned silence.
Ye Xiaoyao slowly stood up, his sharp eyes fixed on Xiao Zhang.
Ye Xiaoyao leaped up, the Overturning Rain Sword flew around Ye Xiaoyao, collecting rainwater, and stopped in front of Ye Xiaoyao.
Ye Xiaoyao cast a spell, and the raindrops on the Overturning Rain Sword solidified, gathering and attaching to the blade of the Overturning Rain Sword.
Concentrating spiritual energy, the sword moved with the qi!
Ye Kong on the stand saw Ye Xiaoyao resonate with the Overturning Rain Sword, and knew the outcome of this match. Ye Kong's eyes were filled with a kind smile, but his expression remained calm.
"Wind and rain descend, Sword Rain, rise!" As soon as Ye Xiaoyao's sword incantation came out, the Overturning Rain Sword stabbed straight at Xiao Zhang.
A visible rain condensation appeared in front of the Overturning Rain Sword, and also stabbed straight at Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang prepared to raise the Golden Back Broadsword to block, but the rain sword, condensed into substance, hit Xiao Zhang's hands, and Xiao Zhang felt a piercing pain. The rain sword struck again, knocking the Golden Back Broadsword out of Xiao Zhang's hand, and it fell straight onto the Martial Peak stands.
Xiao Wu stood up to see the battle situation when he saw Xiao Zhang's weapon being knocked away. The smug look on his face just now disappeared, replaced by panic in his eyes.
Without the Golden Back Broadsword, Xiao Zhang looked at the Overturning Rain Sword about to stab him, and closed his eyes in fear.
Not feeling any pain, Xiao Zhang tentatively opened his eyes, and the blade of the Overturning Rain Sword was only millimeters away from his throat!
The audience on the stands were all stunned, not expecting that a small Xiaoyao Peak disciple could reverse the situation and turn defeat into victory.
Ye Xiaoyao retracted the Overturning Rain Sword, Xiao Zhang's thighs weakened, and he knelt down on both knees, supporting himself with his hands. Crystalline water droplets dripped down his face, it was unknown whether it was sweat or rain.
The dark clouds dissipated, and the sun reappeared, shining its light.
"I, I actually lost to someone from Xiaoyao Peak." Xiao Zhang stretched out his trembling hand, looking incredulous. Then he covered his face, feeling ashamed to face Xiao Wu.
"Yay! Fourth Brother won." Ye Wuxin shouted happily, and the other Xiaoyao Peak disciples were also happy for Ye Xiaoyao, who was able to avenge the previous verbal belittling of Xiaoyao Peak by Martial Peak.
Ye Xiaoyao landed, standing steadily on the stage, looking at Xiao Wu kneeling on the ground covering his face, Ye Xiaoyao knew that he had won.
With a "clang" sound, the Overturning Rain Sword fell onto the stage, and Ye Xiaoyao's hands trembled uncontrollably.
"Master, Fourth Brother he!"
Before Ye Wuxin could finish speaking, Ye Kong spoke.
"It's because he fought against Xiao Zhang's Golden Back Broadsword too many times earlier, and now his hands are weak and he can't lift the sword anymore."
"Master, then why are Fourth Brother's hands still trembling?" Ye Wuxin asked worriedly.
"That's because your Fourth Brother exerted too much force, and now his muscles are tense. Hurry up, help him off the stage and let him rest well," Ye Kong explained.
Ye Wuxin and Mu Qianqian leaped onto the battle stage, Ye Wuxin supported Ye Xiaoyao, Mu Qianqian picked up the Overturning Rain Sword, and the two took Ye Xiaoyao off the stage.
And Xiao Wu, seeing the result of the match, looked furious. Xiao Zhang, this useless fellow, had completely lost face for his Martial Peak!
"Yo! Peak Master Xiao, weren't you quite proud just now, how did you lose?" Yao Zidan, the Sect Master of the Zhudan Sect, who was sitting in the stands next to Martial Peak, mocked.
Xiao Wu's old face turned red, and he left angrily.
