Chapter 269: Gao Tiange, Defeated!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jiang Chen wasn’t very sure about it.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t confident about defeating Gao Tiange, but he wasn’t sure he could control himself and not kill Gao Tiange while defeating him.
He hadn’t yet completely mastered the first movent of the Sword thod of Ksana. Under such tricky conditions, it would be extrely difficult for him to defeat his rival without killing him.
No one had ever been killed in the competition of the Sacred Institute. Such fights usually ended when one of the two was defeated.
Even Gao Tiange only had the will to fight, not the will to kill.
It would be against his beliefs to exert a killing movent in order to win a fight. It wouldn’t do him any good, either.
Most importantly, even if he won that way, it wouldn’t be a victory he was proud of.
Unless they both agreed to a life-or-death fight, if he made an all-out attack while Gao Tiange was holding back, people would regard him as a dirty fighter.
He wouldn’t get an apology from Fang Yi, either, and she would go mad because of her son’s death.
But if he didn’t attack, he would lose!
He had mingled the creation of wind, the creation of tal, and the elevation of the sword. The creation of tal could do nothing to fire. He was relying on the creation of wind.
Fine. I’ll just try my best!
Jiang Chen decided to stop overthinking. He cald down and exerted the creation of nature and martial arts techniques. He was completely focused on the fight.
The sudden change had brought him good results. Gao Tiange’s fire weakened after he had managed to stand steadily.
“The Rainbow Sword thod: Three Movents in One!”
Jiang Chen seized the montary chance to attack with his sword.
The three dazzling sword attacks pierced into the sea of fire from three separate angles, posing a threat to Gao Tiange.
Among the Gaos, Fang Yi stood up, anxious.
Gao Tiange was hanging by a thread, but suddenly, the flas closed to envelop him.
Jiang Chen’s hand holding the sword felt hot, but he chose to ignore it and went on with the attack.
After three cracking sounds, Gao Tiange, who had turned into a man made of flas, retreated to the opposite corner of the platform. When the flas had disappeared, people saw two startling sword wounds, one on his arm and another on his cheek.
“Tiange!” Fang Yi was heartbroken. If there hadn’t been so many people present, she would have started to curse Jiang Chen.
However, Jiang Chen’s left hand was burned black, too.
The Redcloud Sword was so hot that he had to throw it onto the ground for a mont.
“All right. You two are tied.” The Dean of Students went onto the platform to announce the result.
If Gao Tiange and Jiang Chen insisted on continuing the fight, no matter who won, both of them would have to pay a heavy price. That wasn’t sothing the Sacred Institute wanted to see.
“Both of you have received outstanding grades,” Shi Wengong said.
“Dean of Students, please don’t interrupt the fight. I haven’t been taking it seriously, but now I’ll try my best. He’ll soon lose.” Gao Tiange wiped the blood off his face. Fortunately, the wound wasn’t so deep that it deford him.
“I’ve been enjoying the fight, too,” Jiang Chen said.
Shi Wengong frowned. He wasn’t very happy. He thought the two were being senseless, but he couldn’t stop them under the gaze of so many people, so he said, “I’ll give you fifteen minutes. If the fight doesn’t end in fifteen minutes, it will be declared a tie. In these fifteen minutes, no killing movents will be allowed.”
“Okay,” Gao Tiange agreed quickly.
So Shi Wengong let the fight continue.
“I was being too careless. You almost got . Now that you’re being stubborn, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
The angry fire of Gao Tiange’s spiritual sword was rising higher and higher, while his eyes were becoming colder and colder.
“Fire Phoenix Stands in Air!”
He finally stopped chasing Jiang Chen like a ball of fire and exerted his sword movent.
It was like a fla that had been given a soul. It actively blocked all of Jiang Chen’s retreating routes.
“Great!”
Jiang Chen suddenly cheered up. A gale was gathering around him, but the wind direction was changed by the influence of the fire.
In the end, the gale assembled on his finger tip.
“Wind!”
He used his finger as a sword. With a pointing gesture, a gust of wind split the fla like it was cutting a river in two.
With so hooting in the background, the fla disappeared completely.
“He’s broken through!”
His creation of wind had leveled up. He had achieved the half great doctrine of wind!
“How?!” Crimson Moon and the other four from the Fire Field couldn’t help but shout. Jiang Chen had broken through to the minor doctrine of wind right under their noses, and he had attained another achievent so quickly.
“This is even better than learning a movent in a fight. He’s managed to break through the martial arts technique of creation during a fight. Aweso!”
“If Jiang Chen wasn’t a short-term disciple, he would definitely be second to none in the Sacred Institute.”
There was a huge difference between the great doctrine of wind and the minor doctrine of wind.
“Huh!” Gao Tiange didn’t say anything, instead launching another sword attack.
Jiang Chen picked up the Redcloud Sword again. It was still hot, but he could deal with the heat.
He threw the sword out. The wind and the fire t.
Gao Tiange had managed to achieve the radiance of the sword with fire. The constant strong winds kept blowing the fire in other directions.
“Hum, you won’t get anywhere in fifteen minutes thanks to this movent.”
Gao Tiange had never thought he could lose the fight; he was only worried about a tie, but the enhancent of the creation of wind had also affected Jiang Chen’s swordsmanship. Gao Tiange’s swordsmanship was worse than his. In Jiang Chen’s eyes, his sword movent had as little to do with technique as the mont before when he had been breathing fire with his sword.
“The Sword thod of Ksana: The First Movent!”
Most importantly, he had mastered the first movent more. At that mont, he was confident that he wouldn’t endanger Gao Tiange’s life with his attack.
Gao Tiange, who was trying his best, had been about to beat Jiang Chen up, when he suddenly found Jiang Chen had disappeared. In an instant, the energy of his sword beca boundless. It reached every corner of the space.
If people could watch it in slow motion, they would find most of the spectators hadn’t realized what had happened, and only the powerful ones had sensed anything unusual.
“Stop...”
Fang Yi was shocked, extrely nervous.
At the sa ti, a few shadows appeared.
When all of this was happening, Jiang Chen had already launched his sword attacks.
Twenty sword attacks had been completed in a single instant. The flas were extinguished. The hot Redcloud Sword had been put at Gao Tiange’s throat.
Gao Tiange had the blood of the phoenix, so the heat wasn’t a problem for him, but he didn’t dare move under the Redcloud Sword, which had been burnt by the fire but hadn’t lost any of its sharpness.
“Don’t worry. This isn’t a killing movent.”
Jiang Chen glanced at the people around.
Along with Gao Tiange and him, so elders of the Sacred Institute were also on the platform. They had thought Jiang Chen had exerted a killing movent, so they had co to Gao Tiange’s rescue.
Although Gao Tiange was fine, they couldn’t calm down, because they had been too slow. If Jiang Chen hadn’t pulled his sword back himself, he could have killed Gao Tiange in their presence.
“What a sword attack!” people exclaid.
“Gao Tiange, defeated,” Shi Wengong said.
This announcent woke many people up.
It was interesting that it was supposed to be a tie, but Gao Tiange had refused to accept the outco. Unexpectedly, he had lost it so soon.
“I don’t buy it!” Gao Tiange shouted.
It was easy to tell that this was Jiang Chen’s only chance to defeat him. If he had done sothing to stop Jiang Chen from launching this attack, Jiang Chen would have lost.
But, it would be ridiculous to count on so many variables in a fight.
“If you don’t buy it, bla yourself. You didn’t try your best at the beginning, which gave Jiang Chen the opportunity to break through. You never used your unique movent, and you failed to launch an attack before his. You relied too much on your flas!” Shi Wengong scolded him seriously.
