"What!" Wu Fen was furious upon hearing these words and hacked with even more force.
The sword blade repeatedly whooshed past Chu Nan's body, looking extremely dangerous.
Yet, Chu Nan's expression remained unchanged, only breathing steadily.
About twenty breaths later, a flash of brilliance appeared in Chu Nan's eyes, and he clenched his fist tightly, saying, "Thunderous Dominating Fist, resound ninety times!"
Having broken through to the eighth level of the Martial Dao, Chu Nan was able to achieve ninety reverberations.
However, the more the times increased, the longer the time required for reverberation became. To reach the optimal state, Chu Nan had no choice but to keep evading attacks while secretly building up momentum.
Once the ninety reverberations were completely finished, Chu Nan evaded a sword and then unhesitatingly punched out.
This punch seemed like a thunderbolt manifesting in the world, everyone felt as if a lightning flash passed before their eyes, the terrifying power left them breathless.
All his power was concentrated into one point, stirring up layers of powerful wind that fiercely hit Wu Fen's chest.
Crack! The high-grade Mortal Martial armor shattered, as Wu Fen was knocked backward, the fragments of the armor scattered like snowflakes on the arena.
Bang!
The entire armor was shattered by Chu Nan's punch, Wu Fen fell to the ground, spitting blood, even the longsword in his hand flew out and landed at Chu Nan's feet.
The martial artists below the stage were utterly stunned, Chu Nan was able to shatter high-grade Mortal Martial armor with just a single punch!
"What was that martial skill just now!"
"Seems like Thunderous Dominating Fist, but to my knowledge, its power isn't that strong?"
"That Thunderous Dominating Fist just now must have reverberated at least seventy times, terrifyingly so; how did Chu Nan achieve that!"
"Perhaps Chu Nan's punch isn't that strong, the armor must have had issues which caused it to break."
"I agree, Chu Nan is only at the eighth level of the Martial Dao, how could he possibly shatter high-grade Mortal Martial armor with one punch."
"His luck is truly good..."
Gu Nianxue ignored the discussions of the crowd, her eyes sparkling, curious how many more shocks Chu Nan would bring.
On the arena, Chu Nan paid no attention to the gasps from below.
The power of Thunderous Dominating Fist with ninety reverberations was indeed formidable, but breaking high-grade Mortal Martial armor wasn't solely reliant on Thunderous Dominating Fist.
His powerful physique developed through cultivation was equally crucial.
After all, the same martial skill performed by different people yields vastly different effects.
Chu Nan bent down to pick up Wu Fen's launched longsword, finding it was merely a mid-grade Mortal Martial.
Wu Fen struggled to his feet, clutching his chest, venomously saying, "Chu Nan, don't celebrate too early, this duel isn't over yet!"
With that, Wu Fen tapped his storage ring, and another Mortal Martial longsword landed in his hand.
"This is high-grade Mortal Martial specially for offense, certain to kill you on the spot!"
Wu Fen's intent to kill was exceptionally resolved.
Facing Wu Fen holding high-grade Mortal Martial, Chu Nan merely scoffed, "Wu Fen, weaklings remain weaklings, it doesn't matter if you wield high-grade Mortal Martial or Spirit Martial, you cannot be my match."
"Today, I will show you how I wield my sword."
Chu Nan's mockery was piercing, Wu Fen furiously retorted, "Arrogant words, take this!"
"Black Brilliance Sword Technique!"
Wu Fen attacked Chu Nan again, with the added strength of high-grade Mortal Martial, the sword's power surpassed the previous by threefold.
The erupting sharp Qi made everyone's faces turn solemn.
"The power of this sword is unmatched among the outer sect!"
"I never thought Wu Fen was this strong, Chu Nan probably stands no chance."
On the arena, Chu Nan calmly watched Wu Fen's sword; with guidance from Kui Guang, Wu Fen's martial skill seemed crude and unrefined.
Watching as the Black Brilliance Sword Technique was about to fall, Chu Nan struck too.
"Cyan Mountain Sword Technique!"
A sword was unleashed, meeting Wu Fen.
"Cyan Mountain Sword Technique? Ridiculous, how can an intermediate martial skill compete with an advanced martial skill!"
"Chu Nan wouldn't think he can replicate the miracle of just now where he shattered high-grade Mortal Martial with one punch, right?"
"This sword is enough to slice off Chu Nan's head."
Outer sect disciples of the ninth level Martial Dao laughed incessantly, as if they could already see the moment Chu Nan failed.
But the next moment, their laughter vanished.
The clear sword's hum echoed on the arena, and a dazzling sword light flashed past.
Crack!
The sword Qi formed by Black Brilliance Sword Technique was instantly shattered into pieces, the scattered sword light shining on Wu Fen's face, plunging him into utter despair.
Next, the sword Qi of Cyan Mountain Sword Technique descended before his eyes, tearing his flesh painfully that he nearly fainted.
Wu Fen painfully knelt to the ground, his eyes blood-red.
"This is Cyan Mountain Sword Technique!"
"Is the power of Cyan Mountain Sword Technique so terrifying!"
For many disciples, Cyan Mountain Sword Technique was merely an introductory basic sword technique, its power was moderate, no way could they bring out such power.
At this moment, the discerning Gu Nianxue said, "Merely entering isn't achievable, but Chu Nan has cultivated Cyan Mountain Sword Technique to perfection!"
Gu Nianxue, deeply immersed in the Martial Dao, had knowledge of many martial skills and cultivation techniques.
Although she witnessed many contexts, it delayed her cultivation, otherwise she would have long reached the ninth level of the Martial Dao.
Upon hearing Gu Nianxue's words, everyone was shocked.
"Cultivating intermediate martial skills to minor achievements is rare, yet Chu Nan achieved perfection!"
"This is Emperor Level Martial Vein, compared to him, I am a mere waste."
Exclamations echoed below the stage, no one in the outer sect dared to look down on Chu Nan anymore.
On stage, Chu Nan looked at the heavily injured Wu Fen and said, "I told you your sword skill is garbage, didn't believe it, go back and train your sword technique properly before fighting me!"
A kick was delivered directly to Wu Fen, kicking him off the stage.
As for Wu Fen's high-grade Mortal Martial weapon, naturally it was taken by Chu Nan.
With a new sword in hand, Chu Nan walked off the stage and said, "Anyone else who wants to challenge me, come forward."
Chu Nan coldly looked at the crowd below, whoever his gaze fell upon, no one dared to meet his eyes.
What a joke, with combat power this extraordinary at the eighth level of the Martial Dao, who in the outer sect dared to challenge?
That would be akin to lighting a lantern in the latrine, illuminating waste!
Pop! Pop! Pop!
Just as Chu Nan was at his peak with no one daring to confront him, a round of applause suddenly broke out.
Everyone followed the sound, their faces changed!
The top of the rankings, Chu Hai.
A year ago, he suddenly rose, peak of Spirit Pill sixfold, the top of the inner sect, about to become a True Disciple, a terrifying existence!
The crowd automatically dispersed, a noble young master dressed in ornate clothes walked through, approaching Chu Nan, and lowered his hands from clapping, saying, "Chu Nan, who would have thought a useless cast-out from the family could grow to this extent."
Chu Nan stared straight at Chu Hai, showing no fear or apprehension because of the other's cultivation.
Past events flashed again and again through his mind.
Stealing Treasure Blood, destroying cultivation, breaking limbs, expelling from the family.
So much had been taken from him by Chu Han and Chu Hai, those were excruciating memories, the flames of hatred erupted in his heart.
If he didn't kill Chu Hai and annihilate Chu Han, Chu Nan would find no peace!
Yet Chu Hai's expression remained calm, his eyes were still filled with deep contempt for Chu Nan.
He raised his chin, with a hint of condescension, saying, "Chu Nan, I forgive you for killing Chu Miao."
"Moreover, I will give you an opportunity, return with me to the family and kneel before the Patriarch to admit your wrongs, sparing you from death."
