Chapter 1011: Chapter 1010: Jian Qingshan Wins Chapter 1011: Chapter 1010: Jian Qingshan Wins “This child is indeed a natural born genius of the Sword Tao,” Ye ngxian couldn’t help but exclaim, her eyes brimming with admiration.
It wasn’t only her, Tuoba Lie was also nodding incessantly, praising, “What a Jian Qingshan!”
Even ng Haiwen, who supported Ying Xinghe, couldn’t deny it in his heart; Jian Qingshan was indeed too formidable. His reputation as the number one Sword Tao prodigy of the younger generation in the Tang Country was certainly not an exaggeration.
The Pingbei King’s face was full of smiles, seemingly very content with Jian Qingshan’s performance.
Inside Sea Moon City, many sword-wielding martial artists were praising Jian Qingshan’s previous strike without end.
“This strike seems ordinary, yet it contains a profound understanding of the sword.”
“Simplifying complexity, the simplest strike is also the strongest!”
“Alas, after decades of sword training, today I feel utterly subdued by Jian Qingshan.”
“If this child continues to grow, I’m afraid he’ll beco a powerful figure in the Sword Tao.”
“Given this, it seems challenging for Ying Xinghe.”
…
Fang Lin too was shaken by Jian Qingshan’s ordinary yet stunning strike. Though he wasn’t skilled with the sword, he had a keen eye.
That strike was not sothing just anyone could deliver. Even those old-tirs who had wielded swords for decades probably couldn’t reach Jian Qingshan’s level.
Frankly speaking, Jian Qingshan’s Sword Tao was no longer confined to re moves; he had stepped into the realm of intent.
That ordinary yet powerful strike was infused with Jian Qingshan’s Sword Intent—it was his perception and understanding of the Sword Tao.
At this mont, many Qing Nation martial artists were worried for Ying Xinghe. The strength Jian Qingshan had displayed was sowhat too overwhelming.
“Excellent, such an opponent makes even more interested,” Ying Xinghe said with a grin, though his smile was sowhat grim.
Jian Qingshan, holding his longsword, stood calmly, his aura hidden yet unreleased, as if he might deliver another astonishing strike at any mont.
Ying Xinghe moved; still when quiet, but as unstoppable as a thousand juns when in action, his long halberd coming through the wind like thunder.
Jian Qingshan didn’t hesitate at all, swinging his sword to block, and Sword Qi burst forth but was easily shattered by the halberd.
Seeing this, Jian Qingshan’s eyes slightly narrowed, and he thrust his longsword straight forward.
Clang!!!!!
The tip of the sword and the halberd collided, sparks flying, and Inner Strength surged.
A trendous force ca from the halberd, and Jian Qingshan felt overwheld, forced back step by step.
But after retreating only three steps, Jian Qingshan steadied himself and was not pushed back further, countering the halberd’s powerful force with his Sword Intent.
Ying Xinghe rushed closer, kicking the halberd, and the force it carried suddenly intensified, making Jian Qingshan stagger back two more steps.
At the sa ti, Ying Xinghe launched a palm strike, and mighty Inner Strength converged, forming a golden Palm Impression out of thin air.
This Palm Impression was imnsely powerful, radiating golden light, embodying an ancient and grand aura, with a hint of Imperial Qi within it.
Royal Martial Arts of the Qing Nation!
The golden Palm Impression crashed down towards Jian Qingshan with tyrannical force, causing the entire array platform to shake violently; it seed as though the array platform might break apart from Ying Xinghe’s single strike.
Jian Qingshan looked up, his expression serious. He wanted to draw his sword to defend, but his blade was already occupied fending off the onslaught of the halberd, and he could do no more.
“Jian Qingshan might be in danger,” many people said, becoming worried about Jian Qingshan.
However, Jian Qingshan himself was not at all flustered.
He slapped the Nine Palace Bag, and another longsword flew out, bursting with dazzling sword light, shooting straight up into the sky to collide violently with the golden palm impression.
This ti, the array platform finally struggled to hold up, teetering on the brink of collapse, until the Lord of Sea Moon City intervened once more to stabilize the array platform.
When a muffled grunt rang out, everyone imdiately focused their attention onto the platform above.
They saw Jian Qingshan’s complexion slightly pale, a trace of fresh blood at the corner of his mouth, apparently injured.
On the opposite side, Ying Xinghe was constantly sneering, as if he had gained the upper hand in the recent exchange.
“Royal Martial Arts indeed has its unique aspects,” Jian Qingshan remarked, his tone laced with amazent.
At this mont, however, he held a sword in each hand, and although the two swords were different, their sword intents were aligned.
Previously, Jian Qingshan had executed an ordinary sword strike, putting Ying Xinghe in a quite embarrassing situation, his body covered in wounds, whereas in the last exchange, Ying Xinghe had the advantage, causing Jian Qingshan to suffer so internal injuries.
It was not until this mont that the real contest truly began.
Jian Qingshan, wielding dual swords, seed even more formidable than when he held a single sword; his offense and defense fluidly alternating, constantly interchanging, made Ying Xinghe rather taxed in his response.
Luckily for Ying Xinghe, he wore a suit of armor mixed with Phoenix Blood Stone, greatly enhancing his defense, and thus in the exchange with Jian Qingshan, it could go tit for tat without being at a disadvantage.
It was a fierce fight akin to a dragon battling a tiger, with both sides sparing no effort nor holding back their abilities, the array platform had to be stabilized several tis over just to avoid collapsing.
But who won and who lost was still difficult to determine at this mont.
Judging from the situation, neither appeared to have any advantage; it was a perfectly matched fight.
But to the discerning eye, Jian Qingshan still seed to have a bit more of an advantage.
“Alas, Prince Yin Xinghe has lost,” said so of the more powerful martial artists from Qing Nation, shaking their heads.
“Why? Prince Yin Xinghe doesn’t seem to be at a disadvantage, so why do you say he’s lost?” soone asked, not understanding.
“Just watch, the result will show itself soon enough,” the person didn’t elaborate further, and simply shook his head.
On the VIP platform above, several dignitaries could naturally see the outco, and ng Haiwen’s expression didn’t look very good.
“It seems Jian Qingshan is going to win,” Tuoba Lie spoke out, and it was unclear whether his words were intentional, making ng Haiwen’s expression turn even uglier.
However, the situation on the field suddenly changed. Jian Qingshan’s dual-sword assault was like a violent storm with every strike flawless.
Ying Xinghe, exhausted from defending, ultimately lost his chance, and even with his formidable strength, he was still no match for Jian Qingshan.
A sword strike ca suddenly, catching Ying Xinghe off guard and halting just at his throat, re inches from cutting through his flesh.
Ying Xinghe’s face turned ashen. He hadn’t expected Jian Qingshan to be so formidable and to be defeated by him.
“Brother Ying, thank you for yielding,” Jian Qingshan retracted his longsword, not advancing further, displaying humility and courtesy.
Ying Xinghe, however, was staring fixedly at Jian Qingshan, his eyes filled with unwillingness to accept defeat.
Ying Xinghe was indeed not reconciled. In terms of both realm and strength, he did not consider himself inferior to Jian Qingshan, and yet he still lost, which was hard for him to accept.
Especially since the duel was witnessed by all, his defeat to Jian Qingshan was a huge blow to his pride.
In the future, when people ntioned him, they would surely add that he had been defeated by Jian Qingshan, and how could Ying Xinghe bear that?
