"Profound Level Upper Grade Swordsmanship, so this is the true capability of the Seventh Princess."
"So powerful, the might of this sword, I'm afraid even someone at the Third Layer of the Element Transformation Realm might not withstand it."
"Wang Ruoxie should be defeated."
Feeling the terrifying power contained in Tang Miaoyin's sword, the crowd exclaimed in surprise.
In their view, Tang Miaoyin's strength was already greater than Wang Ruoxie's, and now that she used a Profound Level Upper Grade Martial Technique, Wang Ruoxie was sure to lose.
Even Ouyang Ling thought Wang Ruoxie could not withstand Tang Miaoyin's sword, as he had also cultivated a Profound Level Upper Grade Martial Technique and naturally understood its might.
"Cloud Emergence Technique."
At this moment, Wang Ruoxie also wielded his longsword, and immediately, streaks of sword beams erupted forth.
"Boom..."
The next instant, accompanied by bursts of explosive sound, the blue lotuses were instantly shattered by the sword beams.
However, in the end, one blue lotus still landed on Wang Ruoxie's body.
"Bang!"
He felt a terrifying force violently hit him, pushing Wang Ruoxie back over ten steps before he could barely stabilize himself.
A streak of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating he was injured from the blow.
"Indeed, facing Tang Miaoyin's full power, Wang Ruoxie was still defeated."
Seeing this, the crowd thought to themselves.
However, for Wang Ruoxie to battle Tang Miaoyin at such a level, with only an Eighth Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm cultivation, was already something to be proud of.
Not to mention, Qin Wushuang, who was also at the Second Layer of the Element Transformation Realm, was easily defeated by Tang Miaoyin with just one move.
"You lost."
Tang Miaoyin did not continue her attack; instead, she smiled slightly and said to Wang Ruoxie.
"Lost? It's too early to say that."
Wang Ruoxie wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a smile and shook his head as he spoke.
However, he also felt somewhat helpless; if they were at the same cultivation level, he could easily defeat her. However, he was only at the Eighth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm while she was at the Second Layer of the Element Transformation Realm.
On top of that, Tang Miaoyin's strength already rivaled the Third Layer of the Element Transformation Realm, and she had used a Profound Level Upper Grade Martial Technique. It's likely even a typical Third Layer of Element Transformation wouldn't withstand that sword.
Fortunately, his body had been tempered with Blood God Essence Blood and refined by absorbing a lot of Demon Beast Essence Blood, making his physique far superior to others at the same level, which allowed him to endure that blow. Otherwise, the blue lotus earlier would have seriously injured him and taken away his ability to fight.
"Let's go again."
Wang Ruoxie shouted softly, then his figure flashed out, using the Cloud Soaring Step, and in almost an instant, he was in front of Tang Miaoyin.
The sword light was dazzling, his longsword slashing directly at her.
Tang Miaoyin did not retreat either, swinging her sword.
"Clang, clang, clang..."
In the blink of an eye, their swords clashed dozens of times.
At this moment, both of them unleashed their full strength.
Especially Wang Ruoxie, who, to make up for his lack of cultivation, even used a Blood Burning Secret Technique, burning 20% of his Qi and Blood to temporarily increase his strength by 20%.
"My God, both of them are so powerful."
"If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to take even one hit from them."
"Wang Ruoxie is the strongest Energy-Introducing Realm practitioner I've seen. With his current power, he could probably reach the top 200 of the Hidden Dragon List. Should he break through to the Element Transformation Realm, he might even make it to the top ten."
Everyone was in awe, continuously exclaiming in shock.
Even Tang Miaoyin felt shaken in her heart. She thought she could easily defeat Wang Ruoxie, but she didn't expect that Wang Ruoxie, with only the Eighth Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm, could be on par with her strength.
To know, she had already unleashed her full power, yet still couldn't gain an advantage.
Most shockingly, her opponent was merely at the Eighth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm and already possessed such strength. Once he broke through to the Ninth Layer, or even stepped into the Element Transformation Realm, how strong would he become?
At this moment, Tang Miaoyin felt a little unsettled.
The proud her had to admit, Wang Ruoxie indeed excelled beyond her.
Faced with such a monster, even she couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.
"Hmm? That's not right; he seems to be using some special means to forcibly enhance his strength."
At this moment, Tang Miaoyin's eyes flashed with a strange color. She discovered Wang Ruoxie's face was unusually red, and the aura he emitted wasn't very stable.
Most importantly, she could feel Wang Ruoxie's strength seemed to be gradually weakening. Although it wasn't obvious, it was indeed weakening.
She was sure that he must have used some secret technique to forcibly increase his strength. However, according to her knowledge, such techniques often required a hefty price with a short duration.
This meant she just needed to ensure she remains undefeated, wait for Wang Ruoxie's secret technique to fade, and then she could easily defeat him.
Thinking of this, Tang Miaoyin no longer actively attacked, only using her sword to defend against Wang Ruoxie's onslaught,
"You noticed?"
Wang Ruoxie slightly furrowed his brow, thinking to himself.
However, soon he relaxed his brows and even showed a hint of joy in his eyes.
Because he felt that he was on the verge of a breakthrough.
The next moment, his Sea of Qi at his Dantian violently trembled.
Simultaneously, a strong wave of aura surged from his body.
"What's happening?"
"Is he about to break through amidst the battle?"
Feeling the anomaly around Wang Ruoxie, everyone focused their eyes.
"He's actually about to break through."
Tang Miaoyin looked at Wang Ruoxie with a peculiar expression; she didn't expect Wang Ruoxie would break through at this moment.
She naturally knew that if Wang Ruoxie successfully broke through to the Ninth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm, she would be doomed to lose.
However, she didn't disturb Wang Ruoxie's breakthrough; instead, she withdrew her longsword, temporarily ceasing the battle.
Wang Ruoxie closed his eyes and started fully activating the Nine Transformation Primordial Scripture, charging towards the Ninth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm.
Moments later, with a muffled sound, the Sea of Qi within him expanded several times over.
"He broke through, the Ninth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm."
Feeling Wang Ruoxie's aura surging several times stronger, everyone focused their eyes.
"This battle, I won."
Wang Ruoxie opened his eyes, then smiled at Tang Miaoyin and said.
He finished speaking, his figure flashed out, coming directly to Tang Miaoyin, with his longsword slashing fiercely at her.
Tang Miaoyin also swung her sword to block, forming a multitude of blue lotuses to strike back at Wang Ruoxie.
However, after breaking through to the Ninth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm, Wang Ruoxie's strength was several times greater than before, and he easily destroyed all the blue lotuses.
"Cloud Emergence Technique."
Wang Ruoxie's sword moved faster and faster, each strike quicker than the last, until it seemed to transform into a shadow of swords.
"Clang!"
Suddenly, with a loud crash, Wang Ruoxie's sword struck directly on Tang Miaoyin's sword body.
