On the Life - and - Death Platform, at a certain moment, the two opened their eyes simultaneously. Their gazes met. In Duan Jun's eyes, undisguised cold killing intent flashed, while Yang Ye's eyes were calm, without the slightest ripple.
The two stood up. Duan Jun brandished the Qingfeng Sword in his hand, a playful smile on his face. He said, "Don't say I don't give you a chance. I'll let you make three moves!" Although Yang Ye had already become a Profound Practitioner, he wasn't afraid. He was at least two ranks higher than the opponent, and he had a weapon and sword skills that the other didn't have. So, he was going to play a game of cat - and - mouse.
"Idiot!" Yang Ye cursed inwardly. He held the long sword and walked towards Duan Jun. When he was two meters in front of Duan Jun, suddenly, a fierce look flashed in Yang Ye's calm eyes. The next moment, Yang Ye stomped his right foot hard on the ground. Using the force from the ground, his body shot forward like a cannonball, and he stabbed at Duan Jun with the long sword in his hand.
Where Yang Ye stomped, the originally hard floor had now completely caved in. This was Yang Ye's full - force strike!
The moment Yang Ye's body rushed out, the outer - sect elder who was almost asleep suddenly opened his eyes, a look of surprise in his eyes.
The moment Yang Ye's body suddenly rushed towards him, Duan Jun's face changed drastically, and his eyes were filled with extreme horror. At such a close distance, coupled with Yang Ye's sudden outburst, he simply had no time to dodge or block. He could only watch as Yang Ye's long sword stabbed at his chest.
"Ding!"
Yang Ye's long sword stabbed at Duan Jun's chest, and a clear sound rang out in the arena. Duan Jun's body retreated more than ten steps backward.
Seeing that the long sword didn't pierce in, Yang Ye frowned and didn't chase after him. He looked at the chest of the young man in green clothes and saw that under the clothes, a layer of silver light was constantly flickering!
"He's wearing Profound Armor!" Thinking of this, Yang Ye's eyes narrowed, and the Profound Qi in his body surged.
Duan Jun took a deep breath, feeling a sense of fear in hindsight. He looked at his chest and saw that his high - grade Yellow - rank Profound Armor had now caved in!
"What great strength! At least a thousand - jin force!" Duan Jun's expression became serious. He knew that he had underestimated Yang Ye.
"Wow!"
In a split second, Yang Ye repelled Duan Jun with one sword, causing an uproar among the servant disciples below. Some of them even had excited glints in their eyes. Anyway, Yang Ye was a servant disciple. A servant disciple repelling an outer - sect disciple, of course they were excited!
"This Duan Jun is really stupid. He's so underestimating the opponent, like a pig with a human head. Fortunately, he was wearing Profound Armor!" Seeing that Duan Jun was almost instantly killed, Jiang Qiushui said with a gloomy face.
Several outer - sect disciples beside him nodded in agreement. At the same time, they also felt a sigh of relief in their hearts. They had all bet several months' worth of energy stones, and some greedy ones had even bet one or two years' worth. If Duan Jun lost, the consequences would be unbearable for them!
And beside them, little Bao'er clenched her small fists, her eyes shining with excitement.
"I admit, I was a bit underestimating the opponent. But now I'm telling you, you still have no chance because I'm going to get serious!" Duan Jun looked at Yang Ye, and the Profound Qi in his body slowly circulated. As the Profound Qi continuously poured into the long sword, the long sword actually trembled slightly at this moment.
"Sword skill?" Looking at the slight ripples emanating from the long sword in Duan Jun's hand, Yang Ye murmured. Then, the light - golden Profound Qi in his body poured into the long sword in his hand. As the light - golden Qi entered the sword, a bit of light - golden glow appeared on Yang Ye's long sword. However, these glows were very weak. If one didn't look carefully, they couldn't be noticed at all.
"It seems Duan Jun is going to get serious!" Below the stage, Jiang Qiushui's gloomy face softened slightly. "This time, it'll be decided in one move!"
"Duan Jun is going to use the Spirit - Separating Sword Formula!" An outer - sect disciple had a smile on his face. "The Spirit - Separating Sword Formula is a high - grade Yellow - rank sword skill. Duan Jun daring to use it means he can send out a sword qi. This time, that servant disciple is doomed!"
"The Spirit - Separating Sword Skill? I didn't expect Duan Jun to have learned it. Hehe, this time that servant disciple is dead for sure!"
"Ha ha, three hundred energy stones will be enough for me to cultivate to the Xiantian realm. Ha ha..."
"Alas, if I had known Duan Jun had learned a sword skill, I should have bet more. Only a hundred energy stones. I've lost big this time!"
"Yeah, I've lost big. Really, that Duan Jun hid it too well!"
"......"
At this moment, about fifty outer - sect disciples seemed to have already seen piles of energy stones in front of them.
Seeing a group of excited outer - sect disciples, Bao'er snorted in dissatisfaction. Then she looked at Yang Ye on the stage, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.
On the stage, at a certain moment, a fierce look became prominent in Duan Jun's eyes. He held the long sword in his hand and suddenly slashed at Yang Ye.
"Spirit - Separating Sword Skill!"
As the words fell, a snow - white sword qi about one meter long shot out from the tip of the Qingfeng Long Sword towards Yang Ye. The sword qi was very fast, making a whooshing sound. It almost reached Yang Ye in just two breaths.
When the sword qi was about one meter in front of Yang Ye, Yang Ye moved. He stomped his right foot hard on the ground, using the powerful force from the ground. His body shot out like lightning. At the same time, the long sword in his hand stabbed at the snow - white sword qi.
"Chi......"
Perhaps because of the great force, as Yang Ye's long sword passed, obvious air fluctuations visible to the naked eye appeared, and a sharp sound of breaking wind was heard.
"Striking after the opponent to gain the initiative!" Seeing Yang Ye taking it head - on, the outer - sect elder below the stage said softly. "Interesting. This is the first time I've seen someone cultivate the basic swordsmanship to the state of great perfection. Not bad!"
"Bang!"
The long sword collided with the snow - white sword qi, and an energy explosion sounded. Then, the snow - white sword qi was instantly sliced open by Yang Ye's long sword, just like snow meeting boiling oil. Yang Ye's speed didn't decrease. In two breaths, he and the sword appeared in front of Duan Jun. Then, under Duan Jun's astonished gaze, the long sword quickly slashed at Duan Jun's left and right feet.
Duan Jun's face was filled with disbelief. He couldn't believe that the sword qi he sent out was so easily split by Yang Ye. That was a sword skill! However, before he could come to his senses, Yang Ye appeared in front of him again. His heart was filled with extreme horror. He subconsciously blocked with his long sword and then retreated continuously.
"Ding, ding......"
In the arena, the long swords of the two kept colliding, making a series of sounds of metal clashing, like a beautiful piece of music.
Seeing that Duan Jun was being suppressed and continuously retreating on the stage, the servant disciples below were completely stunned. Not only the servant disciples, but also the dozens of outer - sect disciples beside them were stunned.
A servant disciple suppressing an outer - sect disciple? Was this the number - one useless person in history?
The dozens of outer - sect disciples beside them were also full of shock. They didn't expect that the sword qi was actually pierced by Yang Ye with one sword. How much strength and how fast a speed was needed for that? Originally, if Duan Jun lost, it wouldn't have mattered much to them. But now, if Duan Jun lost, they couldn't afford to pay the little girl's energy stones even if they were sold!
Seeing that Yang Ye pierced the sword qi with one sword, Bao'er's face broke into a big smile, and her agile eyes sparkled with excitement.
On the stage, Yang Ye could actually have dealt with the young man in green clothes long ago. The reason he didn't was that he was practicing swordsmanship. He was so familiar with the basic swordsmanship that he could perform it even with his eyes closed. But he just lacked actual combat experience. Now that he had this opportunity, of course he wouldn't let it go.
The more Yang Ye fought, the more smoothly and easily he felt. On the contrary, the more Duan Jun fought, the more tired and difficult he found it. Yang Ye kept using those few moves. Although they were just a few moves, when used flexibly, they really gave him a headache. Moreover, Yang Ye's speed and strength shocked him. He had never thought that the basic swordsmanship could have such power!
"It's time to end this!"
Feeling that he was becoming more and more proficient in the basic swordsmanship, the corner of Yang Ye's mouth curled up. Then, the speed of the long sword in his hand increased, and he launched a fierce attack on the young man in green clothes.
Seeing Yang Ye suddenly exerting force, Duan Jun panicked. His sword moves became chaotic. Yang Ye's eyes lit up, and the long sword stabbed at Duan Jun's chest. Duan Jun was shocked and immediately blocked. At this moment, Yang Ye suddenly changed the stabbing motion to a slashing one and stabbed at Duan Jun's right hand at an extremely tricky angle.
"Ah!"
His palm was stabbed, and a stream of blood sprayed out. The intense pain made Duan Jun let out a scream. Then, the Qingfeng Long Sword in his hand slipped out and flew towards the stage below. At the same time, a long sword, glinting with cold light, was pressed against his neck.
Duan Jun was defeated!
Seeing Yang Ye's long sword pressed against Duan Jun's throat, the previous commotion disappeared in an instant. There was not a sound from below the stage. It was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. Everyone was completely stunned.
Seeing this scene, Du Xiu's face turned deathly pale, and his body couldn't stop trembling. The two people who were with him had already run away. At this moment, his heart was as good as dead!
"Ha ha......" This time, Bao'er burst into laughter, jumping up and down. She glanced at the outer - sect disciples beside her with her beautiful eyes, as if to say, "See, I have a good eye, right?"
The dozens of outer - sect disciples who were looked at by Bao'er were still looking dull. They couldn't believe that Duan Jun was defeated even after using a sword skill. They still couldn't accept this result.
On the stage, Yang Ye looked at the young man in green clothes with 惊恐 (terrified) eyes and said, "I can spare your life!"
Hearing this, Duan Jun's face showed a hint of joy. Then he said, "Really?" As if thinking of something, he added, "You, you say, what are your conditions!"
"Your cultivation resources and gold coins!" Yang Ye said.
"Okay, okay!" Duan Jun nodded quickly. Then he took out a bag and a silver - colored card from his bosom and handed them to Yang Ye. He said, "There are twenty energy stones in here. I just received them today. And this card. There are about ten thousand gold coins in it. You can withdraw it anywhere in the Great Qin Empire!"
Hearing that there were ten thousand gold coins, Yang Ye's eyelids twitched. He immediately took the bag and the card.
Seeing Yang Ye take the bag and the card, a trace of venom flashed in the depths of Duan Jun's eyes. He thought to himself, "Just you wait. I'll repay this debt a hundred - fold in the future."
After confirming that there were indeed twenty energy stones in the bag, Yang Ye smiled and nodded at Duan Jun. Seeing Yang Ye smile, Duan Jun felt relieved. However, at this moment, Yang Ye's eyes narrowed, and the long sword in his hand swung towards Duan Jun's hands and feet.
"Ah!"
A shrill scream immediately sounded on the stage. Duan Jun's hands and feet were cut off at the roots by Yang Ye. Blood spurted out from Duan Jun's hands and feet like a fountain. The intense pain distorted Duan Jun's entire face.
"Why, why, why!" Duan Jun lay on the ground, shouting hysterically at Yang Ye.
Yang Ye sneered and said, "I said I wouldn't kill you, but I didn't say I wouldn't cripple you. I can't sleep soundly with a threat by my side!" After saying that, Yang Ye sat cross - legged on the ground, took out an energy stone, and began to restore the Profound Qi in his body.
Hearing Yang Ye's words, Duan Jun was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. Then he cursed hysterically on the ground.
Below the stage, the outer - sect elder glanced indifferently at Duan Jun lying on the ground, shook his head, and then ordered someone to take him away.
"Hey, bring the energy stones!" Below the stage, Bao'er ran up to Jiang Qiushui and the others, stretching out her small hand. She said, "I've calculated. You all have to give me nineteen thousand energy stones. Hurry up and bring them!"
Hearing this, the faces of the fifty outer - sect disciples instantly turned deathly pale.
