When Lu Hai saw Sima Yi, he was very displeased and said in a deep voice: "Sima Yi, you are now among the top twenty on the spiritual list. Your ranking value is higher than Zhan Hu. You have no right to challenge!"
"Yes, disciple understands." Sima Yi bowed his hands in salute, then stared at Lin Chen with a pair of cold eyes, and asked calmly: "Junior brother Zhan Hu must be here for the trial in the Northern Wilderness seven days later, right?"
"Exactly." Lin Chen did not object.
"I see."
"No wonder Lin Chen dares to be so arrogant and challenge Senior Brother Lu Yan with a huge leap!"
"I heard that the qualification quota has been reduced. You must reach the top twenty on the spiritual list. This has directly threatened the interests of Senior Brother Sima Yi."
······
Everyone suddenly woke up.
Sima Yi glared and said thoughtfully: "I like your honesty very much. You are here for the trial in the Northern Wilderness, so there is no need to do anything extra! It's rare that you have won the battle today, so why not take the opportunity to reveal my list!"
"Will it be revealed?"
"I feel so, after all, Lin Chen has always been rampant!"
"Although the list of the top twenty on the Spiritual Ranking has not been changed for a long time, it does not mean that the cultivation of those senior brothers has stagnated. Lin Chen's strength has grown somewhat unbelievably, but after all, he has not been in the Spiritual Martial Realm for the first time.
There is still a certain gap between the top twenty strong men on the spiritual list."
"The experience just now was really unsatisfactory. It would be exciting if there was another swordsmanship competition."
······
Everyone was talking a lot and looking forward to it.
Dugu Jian was also looking forward to it, and said with a smile: "Haha, Lin Chen's martial arts and physical skills have reached an excellent level, but what he is best at is swordsmanship, which is really exciting."
"In terms of overall strength, Sima Yike is better than Ying He, but at that time Lin Chen just relied on his own advantages to barely win." Dugu Yun said with a smile: "Not to mention you, I am also looking forward to it.
"
Sima Haolong looked gloomy and snorted secretly: "Lin Chen! I know you are arrogant and arrogant, so I have kept a secret for a long time! If you dare to expose the list again, I will destroy you!"
Dugu Tianlang seemed to see through Sima Haolong's thoughts and smiled faintly: "Haolong, don't expect Sima Yi to win with a little trick. This Lin Chen is very cunning. As far as I know, he has never suffered a loss.
Pass!"
"Hmph! When! You and Lin Chen have become like a snake and a rat!" Sima Haolong mocked.
"I'm just reminding you, this kid is not as simple as you think!" Dugu Sirius said in a serious tone.
"Which one of our Sima family is not the best among dragons? A mere rookie disciple really thinks he is a dragon!" Sima Haolong snorted coldly.
"Let's wait and see." Dugu Sirius asked for trouble and thought to himself: "This time, we have to take a closer look at this kid's tricks and find out the flaws in them, so that we can prescribe the right medicine."
Sima Tianqi knew the strength of every disciple on the spirit list, and was worried, so he secretly sent a message: "Lin Chen! Although you defeated Lu Yan just now, you must have suffered a lot! And you still have a whole day.
There’s no need to rush into trouble in seven days!”
"Well, I have my own sense of discretion." Lin Chen responded lightly.
Seeing that Lin Chen was silent for a long time, Sima Yike seemed a little impatient and said: "Junior Brother Zhan Hu, I heard that you have a very high understanding of the way of swordsmanship, and senior brother is not talented and also has unique insights in the way of swordsmanship. Could it be that you just
Don’t you want to compare notes?”
"Senior brother actually thinks so highly of me, how can I refuse?" Lin Chen smiled slightly, then cupped his hands to Lu Hai and said, "Elder Lu, if it is a disciple who takes the initiative to challenge me, there should be no violation of the rules, right?"
"There is no clear limit to the spirit list challenge, but for the leapfrog challenge, the loser will have multiple points deducted! If you are preparing for the Northern Wilderness trial in seven days, there is no need to rush." Lu Hai said intentionally.
remind.
"Thank you very much, Elder Lu. However, I don't dare to live up to this senior brother's sincerity. Let's just treat it as a martial arts competition, learn from each other's strengths and strive for excellence." Lin Chen cupped his hands and smiled.
"Then are you sure you want to expose me?" Sima Yi smiled successfully.
"I'm not very talented, so I'd like to ask my senior brother for advice." Lin Chen said, cupping his fists.
"Refreshing!" Sima Yi shouted, and said with a smile: "The sword has no eyes, it is actually a swordsmanship competition. It is inevitable that there will be negligence. If you accidentally hurt your junior brother, don't be surprised."
"In the spirit list challenge, there is indeed no mandatory requirement not to use sharp weapons. As long as there is no difference between the two parties, it will be effective. But I can't help but say a few more words. You are always brothers in the same sect. Peace is the most important thing in everything. Don't be cruel.
Strike hard and hit it till the end." Lu Hai muttered.
"Yes~"
Lin Chen and Sima Yi bowed respectfully, and the challenge took effect.
"The showdown between swordsmen is exciting just thinking about it!"
"Yes, Lin Chen has shown good martial arts, but what he is better at is swordsmanship! I heard that the Great Elder Ying He of the Shadow Sect was defeated by Lin Chen's sword!"
"Ying He is not good at swordsmanship. Even if he was holding the treasure of the gate, the Tianlong Sword, he could not exert the true power of the Tianlong Sword! But Senior Brother Sima Yi is different. He is a true swordsman, and his strength is even better than Ying He's.
One chip."
"Well, it is said that Lin Chen only had a narrow victory at that time. In terms of strength, he and Ying He should be equally matched! If Lin Chen is only as good as he was when he fought against Ying He, he will definitely not be a match for Senior Brother Sima Yi."
"This Lin Chen is too arrogant. He doesn't know the details of his opponent at all, so he dares to expose the list directly. He is destined to suffer a big loss!"
······
Everyone was talking a lot. Although they were looking forward to this battle, they felt that Lin Chen's chances of winning were not high.
"This guy still can't stand the excitement and acts so impulsively! At least you have to wait for a day so that I can reveal some information to you." Sima Tianqi looked angry.
"Don't worry, little Qiqi. Although I have no good impressions of Lin Chen, this guy still has real abilities. Even if he is unfortunately defeated, there is no problem in self-preservation. It is also beneficial to dampen his spirit." Dugu Sirius.
He said with a smile.
"He can do whatever he likes, it has nothing to do with me!" Sima Tianqi snorted.
"If you really don't care about this kid, I can rest easy." Dugu Tianlang shook his head and sighed bitterly.
"Even without him, I wouldn't have fallen in love with you. I would have given up as soon as possible!" Sima Tianqi looked disgusted.
now!
Lin Chen and Sima Yi stood facing each other.
As a sword cultivator, what we talk about is character and momentum.
What's even more different from Lu Yan is that Sima Yi is very calm, and his aura is deep and restrained, like a sword hidden in a box, its edge is not revealed, giving people an unfathomable sense of mystery.
"This opponent is really not easy. In terms of strength, he is slightly better than Ying He." Lin Chen's expression showed a bit of solemnity. There were many factors that allowed him to defeat Ying He by chance at that time.
Sima Yi is different from Ying He. He has no grudges against Lin Chen. He has a calm mind and a clear mind. He regards Lin Chen as his opponent purely with the simplest thoughts, which is difficult for others to see through.
However, since the battle with Ying He, Lin Chen's cultivation has also improved to the third level of spiritual martial arts. His strength is not what it used to be. Especially with the Tianlong sword in his hand, he is still confident to deal with the masters of the fifth level of spiritual martial arts.
sufficient.
While Lin Chen was observing his opponent, Sima Yi was also looking at Lin Chen carefully and secretly said in shock: "I heard that this boy is a master of swordsmanship and has a sharp sword that makes him unpredictable! Even Senior Brother Haolong is there too.
He suffered a loss, it seems that he really can’t underestimate the enemy, so let’s test his depth first!”
The two have been silent for a long time.
Sima Yi couldn't help but say: "I heard that Junior Brother Zhan Hu has a fast sword. Senior Brother really wants to see how fast your sword is."
"My sword follows my heart!" Lin Chen said calmly, his breath deep and ordinary.
My sword follows my heart?
Sima Yi was startled and smiled faintly: "Haha, it seems that Junior Brother Zhan Hu has a deep understanding of the way of swordsmanship, so Senior Brother will humbly ask you for advice."
"Senior brother, please." Lin Chen said politely.
"Yes!" Sima Yigang nodded.
Whoa!~
A ghostly phantom, as ethereal as an illusion, galloping with sharp edges.
"Fantasy sword!" everyone exclaimed.
Lin Chen's expression was startled. Just as he was startled, a strange ghost-like phantom, accompanied by bursts of cold wind, struck instantly.
Phew!~
The invisible phantom condensed an extremely cold sword energy, which merged with the surrounding air and turned into an invisible sharp sword, pressing towards Lin Chen's heart with extremely vicious force.
"Be careful!" Sima Tianqi couldn't help laughing.
Although this sword was strange and unexpected, Lin Chen had strong sense and reacted instantly.
Thunder flash!
Lin Chen's body flashed like lightning, and his body quickly moved back.
But the strange and illusory sword energy was pervasive and omnipresent, clinging to Lin Chen's body and moving strangely, like a cunning spiritual snake, winding around fiercely.
"Uh!" Lin Chen was shocked. He didn't expect Sima Yi's swordsmanship to be so weird. Even with his strong sense, it was somewhat difficult to distinguish the trajectory of the sword's movement.
What's even more unbelievable is that Sima Yi still stood still, with stern eyes and a mysterious smile.
"Phantom Killing Sword!"
"This sword technique is as illusory as it is illusory. It moves with the wind and is everywhere. It is impossible for the opponent to escape."
"Senior Brother Sima Yi was too ruthless, he used his killing move from the very beginning!"
······
Everyone exclaimed in shock, secretly sweating for Lin Chen.
"Very good, keep it up, don't let this guy have any chance to fight back!" Sima Haolong said with a gloomy face.
Dugu Tianlang looked quite surprised and said to himself: "When did Sima Yi's phantom swordsmanship improve so much?"
"Well, that's right. It seems that Xiao Yi has understood the essence of Fantasy Sword." Dugu Jian praised.
"Over the years, our Royal Beast Pavilion has indeed produced a lot of talents in various fields. It seems that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and the future will be the world of their young people." Dugu Yun sighed happily.
"Haha, I wonder what Mr. Yun thinks of Lin Chen now?" Dugu Jian asked with a smile.
"Although this kid is passive for the moment, he is not threatened yet. It's really hard to judge." Dugu Yun shook his head.
Phew! Phew!~
The phantom flashes and the sword energy flies, which is even better than Ying He's illusion back then.
certainly!
Lin Chen's movement skills were not bad either, he moved with lightning speed and fluidity. Even if it was difficult to get rid of the entanglement of the phantom sword for a while, it was still difficult to hurt Lin Chen.
One person's sword skills are ghostly, and the other's personal skills are amazing. It's thrilling to watch.
