A sudden breakthrough can happen to anyone, and it is an opportunity for everyone.
And Wang Xiong's breakthrough this time not only fulfilled him, but also fulfilled Hanshan Residence behind him.
Now, in the eyes of everyone, Wang Xiong is not only expected to be in the top three, but is even expected to be first!
"With Wang Xiong's level of strength, even Duan Lingtian may not be his opponent, right?"
Many people think so.
Some people even directly said what they were thinking.
After all, although Duan Lingtian has shown his strength briefly so far, according to some mid-level God Emperor experts, they are not optimistic about Duan Lingtian.
"The strength Duan Lingtian showed previously is no match for Wang Xiong now!"
"My ancestor also said that Duan Lingtian is most likely not Wang Xiong's opponent!"
…
As some of the mid-level God-Emperors spoke, a group of people suddenly felt that Duan Lingtian would definitely lose against Wang Xiong!
Duan Lingtian's strength is at the same level as Lin Yuan at most.
If ordinary people said this, others might question it.
But the Median God-Emperor said this, and not only one Median God-Emperor said this, but also Median God-Emperors from different houses and different forces... In this case, no one questioned it.
At this time, even the faces of the geniuses of Chunyang Sect became unsightly.
Of course, the ones with the most ugly faces were the senior officials of the Chunyang Sect.
Except for Ye Chenfeng, whose expression is still calm, Liu Fenggu, Zhen Pingfan and others' expressions are not very good now, and they all seem to think that Duan Lingtian is hardly Wang Xiong's opponent.
Some Chunyang Sect disciples couldn't help but want to ask Duan Lingtian, but after seeing Duan Lingtian's solemn expression, they all shut up.
At the same time, Yue Gao confirmed that Duan Lingtian could not be Wang Xiong's opponent.
"Even a group of powerful mid-level God Emperors said this... This matter is obviously true."
"What a pity... I thought Duan Lingtian would eventually win the first place in the Seven Palaces Feast."
"Yeah, what a pity."
…
Although many people in Chunyang Sect are communicating with each other, they are all communicating through sound transmission. They are afraid of irritating Duan Lingtian and their elders. After all, this is not a good thing for Chunyang Sect.
Of course, some people are happy now.
For example, Wan Qihong, the genius of the Wanqi family.
Wan Qihong glanced at Duan Lingtian, and a bright smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Duan Lingtian, so what if your strength has improved again? What if I am still not as good as you?"
"This time, I, Wan Qihong, won't be able to win the first place in the feast of the Seven Houses, and neither will you!"
Now Wan Qihong directly sent a message to mock Duan Lingtian, as if he had completely forgotten that even if Duan Lingtian failed to win the first place, he was definitely in the top three.
"Um?"
Hearing Wan Qihong's message, Duan Lingtian was startled for a moment, then turned his head and took a deep look at him, "Even if I can't win the first place, I think I'll be in the top three."
"Unlike someone... the top three, none of them have any hope."
"No... maybe there is no hope for the top five?"
After talking about it, a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth at the right time, causing Wan Qihong's smile to freeze, his face instantly darkened, and his eyes filled with murderous intent.
When Duan Lingtian saw that Wan Qihong had stopped talking, he also withdrew his gaze and ignored him.
To him, this Wan Qihong is just a clown!
However, Lin Yuan's challenge to Wang Xiong failed... This was something that no one expected beforehand!
Even Duan Lingtian didn't think of it beforehand.
Especially after Lin Yuan and Wang Xiong played against each other, he felt that it was more likely that the two would end in a draw.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiong broke through at the critical moment, mastered the rudimentary form of kendo, improved his strength to a higher level, and defeated Wang Xiong in one fell swoop.
"Let's go."
As Lin Yuan failed to challenge Wang Xiong, and Wang Xiong also chose to rest and had no intention of continuing the challenge, this day's ranking competition for the Seven Palaces Feast was completely over.
Tomorrow, the next round will take place.
Wang Xiong is number three, and number two is Han Di. They are not qualified to challenge Duan Lingtian.
However, after witnessing the strength of Wang Xiong and Lin Yuan with his own eyes today, Han Di was mentally prepared to drop out of the top three... Even if Wang Xiong showed even more amazing strength later, his heart was even more numb.
This time at the Feast of the Seven Houses, the biggest ‘dark horse’ is Wang Xiong.
Refreshing others' understanding of him again and again.
…
When Duan Lingtian returned with the Chunyang Sect's large army, it was very quiet along the way. Everyone spoke in tacit agreement and did not mention what happened before.
Even Zhen Pingfan did not send a message to Duan Lingtian this time, for fear of putting too much pressure on Duan Lingtian.
As for advising Duan Lingtian to admit defeat if he thinks he is no match... he didn't say anything.
At this point in the Seven Palaces Feast Ranking Tournament, it doesn’t matter whether you are injured or not.
As for dead people, that is impossible.
So, he didn't say much.
Everything just follows Duan Lingtian's own wishes.
In fact, when everyone went back, the situation of today's feast in the Seven Houses was also reported back to Chunyang Sect...
The decision-makers of Chunyang Sect, as well as the mid-level God Emperors, all fell silent this time.
Although, they are all a little disappointed.
After all, it was previously thought that Duan Lingtian was expected to win the first place in the Seven Palaces Feast.
However, they felt a little relieved when they realized that Duan Lingtian could still win the top three even if he could not win the first place in the Seven Palaces Feast.
This is much better than what they initially expected.
In addition, there is Yang Qianye who is in the top ten.
Even if Duan Lingtian only takes the top three places in the Seven Houses Feast, their Chunyang Sect can also get five places this time!
Five places are enough.
…
"Elder Ye, what's wrong with you?"
After seeing everyone from the Chunyang Sect, including Zhen Pingfan, leave, Ye Chenfeng not only did not return to his residence, but followed him outside his residence. Duan Lingtian, who had just discovered him, couldn't help but be startled.
"Go in first."
Ye Chenfeng smiled.
Duan Lingtian nodded when he heard this. At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder, what is this Elder Ye doing here?
To comfort yourself?
Isn't it necessary?
Moreover, this is not the first day that Elder Ye has met him, so he shouldn't feel that he is so fragile, right?
"Duan Lingtian."
After entering the courtyard of Duan Lingtian's residence, Ye Chenfeng took out a formation disk with a casual move and arranged an isolation formation to isolate him and Duan Lingtian inside.
Seeing this, Duan Lingtian's face became slightly serious.
This Elder Ye, I'm afraid he has something secret to tell me...
Is it about the most powerful divine palace?
Thinking of this, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but feel a flash of light in the depths of his eyes.
"You enter the little world inside my body and observe the true meaning of swordsmanship that I gained from the inspiration I received from my exchange with your master..."
"Although it's not perfect yet, it may be of some help to you."
"After all, the swordsmanship you master has the same origin as your master, and it also has the same origin as him."
While Duan Lingtian was expecting Ye Chenfeng to talk about the Supreme Divine Palace, he did not wait for the news about the Supreme Divine Palace, but instead waited for such words.
Although Duan Lingtian was a little disappointed in this regard, he still couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Elder Ye, that is the sword technique you have mastered... is it inappropriate to pass it on to me?"
The true meaning of kendo is something that affects the improvement of kendo...
If the level of swordsmanship is compared to the character levels of those role-playing online games in the previous life on earth, then the true meaning of swordsmanship is the 'experience' used for upgrading.
"Nothing inappropriate."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said: "I benefited a lot from my exchange with your master. The true meaning of swordsmanship was also inspired by him."
"It can be said that most of it comes from him."
"Now, it is only natural for me to return the favor I received from him to you."
Ye Chenfeng said naturally.
"Furthermore, you have also seen your current situation... If I am not wrong, you are not sure you can beat Wang Xiong now, are you?"
"I don't know if you had any hidden strength before... If you didn't, you probably wouldn't have any hope of tying with him. Even if you had the hope of tying with him, it would be difficult to defeat him."
"In that case, it is better to observe the true meaning of the sword that I have newly learned. If you can gain some insights from it, it may be of great help to improve your strength."
It has to be said that Duan Lingtian's heart was moved after Ye Chenfeng's words.
For a moment, Duan Lingtian took a deep breath, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed, "Elder Ye, I won't say anything sensational, and I won't say... I, Duan Lingtian, will keep this feeling in my heart."
"You don't have to do this."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said, "I just told you that this favor is something I can repay to your master."
"Your master, when I mentioned you to him many times, I can see how much he values you... In his eyes, you are probably no different from his biological son."
"Okay, time is limited, you can enter the little world inside my body now."
"I will evolve the true meaning of swordsmanship that I have newly learned in it, the true meaning of swordsmanship that has the same origin as the swordsmanship mastered by you and your master..."
And then, with Ye Chenfeng's cooperation, Duan Lingtian also entered the small world inside his body.
The small world inside Ye Chenfeng's body was an empty and desolate land, with only sword-shaped stones floating in the sky visible everywhere.
These sword-shaped stones are large and small.
Some are suspended in the void, some are rooted on the barren earth, and some are like Optimus Prime, as if penetrating the sky and earth of the small world inside Ye Chenfeng's body.
While Duan Lingtian was observing the small world inside Ye Chenfeng's body, Ye Chenfeng's voice echoed in his ears at the right time, "I named this small world inside my body the 'World of Swords'."
"Each of these sword-shaped rocks in front of you has the kendo marks left by me... Of course, the kendo marks on some of the rocks have faded a lot because of time."
"However, basically they all bear the mark of kendo."
"Rocks without the mark of the sword will automatically turn into powder and cease to exist."
