When that incomparably sharp beam of sword light whizzed out, all members of the Wind Pavilion in the square were stunned by how decisive Zhou Yuan was.
He acted without saying a word!
But compared to the decisiveness of Zhou Yuan, what they were even more concerned about was that they felt a piercing chill from the sword qi that burst out.
This immediately made their originally mocking gazes become more serious.
Zhou Yuan was only at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, but his combat strength seemed particularly tyrannical.
But while others were dumbstruck by his strength, Jin Teng burst into thunderous laughter. âYou think you can do whatever you want in the Wind Pavilion after you defeated Mo Yuan?! What a huge joke!
âSince you look down on my Wind Pavilion, Iâm going to teach you a lesson today!â
Although Jin Teng spoke righteously, a look of wild joy flashed across the depths of his eyes. Since Zhou Yuan had actively caused trouble today, he knew that Zhou Yuan wouldnât have the face to continue to be the deputy pavilion master if defeated!
The sharp sword light rapidly enlarged before Jin Teng.
Jin Teng drew a deep breath, causing the mighty Genesis Qi within his body to erupt and directly form three Divine Dwelling halos behind him, each flas.h.i.+ng with eight different colors.
However, although Jin Teng had repeatedly looked down on Zhou Yuan, he didnât hold back in his attack at all.
Majestic Genesis Qi surged directly above him, transforming into a giant golden hand covered with ancient patterns, like the palm of a divine being. It emitted a tyrannical oppressive aura.
âThatâs a high-grade Heaven-tier Genesis technique, the Sky Dipper Spirit Hand...â
âItâs Jin Tengâs strongest attack. I didnât expect him to use it straight away. It seems like heâs not going to give that guy even half a chance.â
âHeh, that kid has been talking big all this time, letâs see how he deals with this!â
Many Wind Pavilion disciples gasped in astonishment.
âSky Dipper Spirit Hand!â
As Jin Teng let out a thunderous roar, a giant dark golden hand shot downward, causing the void to tremble. A shadow reached to grab the beam of piercing sword light.
The two ferociously collided. The giant hand clenched tight and caught the sword light. Genesis Qi continuously rumbled.
âWatch me crush your sword pill!â Jin Teng sneered, his hands suddenly folding together in a hand seal.
The giant spirit hand squeezed tight, causing even s.p.a.ce to distort. Even a mountain wouldnât be able to withstand that power.
But a loud and clear sword cry resounded across the sky, and Jin Tengâs expression changed drastically because at that moment he felt a monstrous sword qi erupt from the giant spirit hand.
The giant spirit hand trembled violently, and Jin Tengâs pupils shrank.
He saw cracks rapidly spread across the giant spirit hand.
He felt a chill in his heart, and he rapidly activated Genesis Qi to stabilize the giant spirit hand. With a loud explosive noise, countless beams of piercing sharp sword light shot from the giant spirit hand and forcibly tore it apart.
As the sword light surged, a sword shadow pierced through like a bolt of lightning, aiming directly at Jin Teng.
Jin Tengâs expression changed dramatically. He didnât expect Zhou Yuanâs sword light Genesis technique to be so strong that not even his giant spirit hand could stop it.
Jin Teng rapidly drew back, operating the three Divine Dwelling halos behind him to appear in front to form the final defense.
However, the sword shadow pierced straight through. The azure scales covering the sword body emitted icy cold light that gave the Devil Sweeping Sword Orb an even more powerful outward appearance!
The three Divine Dwelling halos exploded.
But the sword shadow didnât stop once. As the void quaked endlessly and Jin Teng froze with shocked horror, the sword shadow pierced through his shoulder.
Jin Teng was blasted away, and he crashed onto the ground, leaving long marks across the square. Blood sputtered from his shoulder, dying his robe bright red.
It was only after piercing Jin Tengâs shoulder that the sword shadow vanished. But that powerful bone-chilling sword qi continued to remain in the world.
The whole bluestone square fell quiet.
All the members of the Wind Pavilion looked moved. Zhou Yuanâs move had happened in the blink of an eye, and in just a short period of around ten breaths, the outcome of the battle between Zhou Yuan and Jin Teng had been decided.
And that result was unbelievable to them.
Jin Teng had actually lost to Zhou Yuan of the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage?!
It should be said that Jin Teng wasnât a n.o.body. He was a famous person also listed on the Divine Dwelling List. Moreover, based on strength, he was superior to Mo Yuan!
But he was defeated by Zhou Yuan in one move?!
In that silence, Chen Beifeng and Ye Bingling also looked at the scene with strange expressions, and they were evidently also a little surprised by Zhou Yuanâs performance.
Chen Beifeng narrowed his eyes and then slowly retracted his gaze. Zhou Yuanâs sword light was indeed very powerful, but he could feel that it should be at Zhou Yuanâs limits.
He may be a threat to Jin Teng, but not him.
Ye Binglingâs expression eased a little as she studied Zhou Yuan. She no longer regarded him as a young master who got in through his connections.
Yi Qiushui also breathed a sigh of relief. But she was also a little bit surprised by Zhou Yuanâs sword pill technique, which seemed to have become stronger since the last time she saw it when he fought Mo Yuan.
Yi Yan calmly watched the scene, but in his heart he was full of admiration for Zhou Yuan. At a time like this, those unruly and arrogant heaven prides of the Wind Pavilion could only be tamed with strength.
The tyrannical Genesis Qi surging around Zhou Yuan gradually subsided. He scanned the silent square and said in a nonchalant tone, âAnyone else has any objections?â
Although they were proud and arrogant, they werenât stupid. They opposed him previously because Zhou Yuan was only at the intermediate Divine Dwelling Stage and they didnât believe he was capable enough to become a deputy pavilion master. But Zhou Yuan had now proven his strength...
If there was another objection, perhaps even elder Yi Yan wouldnât sit back and let them criticize Lady Chi Jingâs order.
Jin Tengâs face was ashen as he stared at his shoulder that was dripping with blood. He knew that Zhou Yuan had held back; otherwise, the beam of sword light would have pierced his headâŚ
Yi Yan strode forward with a smile. âSince there arenât any objections, from today onward, Zhou Yuan will be the Wind Pavilionâs third deputy pavilion master.
âThere is also more news. Lady Chi Jing has personally ordered that in two months time, the Wind Pavilion will hold the pavilion master selection to decide the Wind Pavilionâs new pavilion master.â
The originally silent square once again broke into uproar.
