"Jian Qingchen’s move is extremely powerful, but unfortunately, he has only one such attack!" Ling Feng muttered to himself: "This probably has something to do with the sword in his hand. But I must say, Jian Qingchen’s understanding of the Sword Dao is quite decent. If he could break free from the sword’s constraints, his achievements would be even greater!"

Now, Ling Feng’s insight is far beyond that of ordinary experts, so he clearly understands the shortcomings Jian Qingchen is facing. If he cannot resolve them, he will never be able to make any more progress in his life!

While a weapon’s power can indeed quickly enhance a person’s combat capability, if the owner does not grow together with the weapon and instead becomes a puppet of the weapon, then that’s truly tragic.

Ling Feng looked at the back view of Jian Qingchen and hesitated. Jian Qingchen is also a decent fellow. It has been a while since Ling Feng encountered someone with such a good grasp of the Sword Dao, and he wanted to give Jian Qingchen some guidance to prevent such a good seedling from being wasted.

But Ling Feng might have forgotten that Jian Qingchen’s age could make him Ling Feng’s great-grandfather!

"Let’s talk about it when there’s a chance!" Ling Feng exhaled: "Next is the last match of today, it should be between Nan Yidao of the Storm Sect and Qi Shanhe, the loose cultivator. However, who exactly is Qi Shanhe, and why does he seem to appear mysteriously, just like Yun Bufan?"

On the field, Nan Yidao and Qi Shanhe were already standing on the practice field.

Nan Yidao is one of the top experts of the Storm Sect and the Deputy Hall Master of the Battle Hall. Due to his obsession with the Martial Way, he rarely appears in the public eye. If it weren’t for this Martial Arts Conference, many people would have even assumed that Nan Yidao might be dead. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Standing on the practice field, Nan Yidao has a stiff expression on his face. In his right hand is a blood-red chain. One end of the chain goes through his wrist, while the other end is tied to a giant blade.

The hilt of the giant blade is held in Nan Yidao’s hand, with the massive blade dragging on the ground. The entire giant blade is blood-red, giving off a very eerie feeling.

Nan Yidao is called Nan Yidao because he became famous for killing anyone with just one strike! No matter how strong the opponent is, they die with one cut!

In some ways, Nan Yidao’s draw strike is somewhat similar to Jian Qingchen’s.

Qi Shanhe is a tall middle-aged man whose appearance is somewhat ordinary. Furthermore, he does not exude the aura of a super-strong expert. At a glance, he looks just like an ordinary cultivator.

But it is precisely this ordinary appearance and ordinary name that in the battles of the Martial Arts Conference, no one has been able to survive his hand!

He is called a loose cultivator because no one knows where he came from or who his master is. He calls himself a loose cultivator, so people also call him a loose cultivator!

However, in private, people prefer to call him the Butcher because under the Butcher’s hand, all become pigs, and none who cannot be slain.

"I didn’t expect us to meet here!" Qi Shanhe looked at Nan Yidao and said with a smile: "I have long heard of the famous Nan Yidao from the Storm Sect. I didn’t expect to duel you here. It feels good!"

Nan Yidao glanced lightly at Qi Shanhe and said indifferently: "Qi Shanhe, aren’t you tired of always disguising yourself?"

"Disguise?" Qi Shanhe was momentarily stunned, then smiled: "How am I disguising myself?"

"Hmph!" Seeing Qi Shanhe’s innocent look, Nan Yidao snorted coldly and said nothing, simply closing his eyes and waiting for the match to begin.

Qi Shanhe seemed to understand something and smiled: "I think I understand what you mean, but what I want to say is that since they must die, being polite to them before their death counts as my mercy to them, isn’t it good?"

Nan Yidao suddenly opened his eyes, staring intently at Qi Shanhe: "Who exactly are you?"

Qi Shanhe replied with a smirk: "Oh, don’t be so aggressive. Why don’t we sit down and have a good chat? I think you’re very powerful, and I might not be able to kill you! If I can’t kill you... then what the hell is the point of coming here?"

Seeing the sudden change in Qi Shanhe’s demeanor, Nan Yidao frowned slightly: "Do you have a grudge against me?"

Qi Shanhe sneered: "A grudge? No, no, how could I possibly have a grudge against your Storm Sect? This world is nothing but the survival of the fittest. As the weak, one must have the awareness of being devoured, and a grudge is nothing but the helpless venting of the weak against the strong, so... of course, we have no grudge. What we have... is merely the law of the jungle!"

"And I will, as the strong, completely eradicate your Storm Sect, do you believe that?" Qi Shanhe said with a smile.

Nan Yidao frowned, remaining silent.

From the conversation just now, Nan Yidao knows that Qi Shanhe definitely has a grudge against the Storm Sect, likely a grudge that spans life and death, irreconcilable until one side is destroyed!

However, Nan Yidao also knows that over the years of the Storm Sect’s dominance, countless families and forces have been destroyed in its path, with thousands, if not tens of thousands, exterminated, so Nan Yidao didn’t even bother to ask which annihilated family Qi Shanhe came from.

"A remnant fish, kill it and be done!" Nan Yidao thought to himself, but the current strength of Qi Shanhe cannot be underestimated, and he must not let him escape, otherwise, a super expert would cause significant trouble for the Storm Sect.

Boom, a sound echoed, signaling the start of the fourth battle.

As the sound faded, strangely, Qi Shanhe and Nan Yidao stood facing each other, neither making the first move, but there was an intimidating atmosphere between them, which even spread to the entire viewing platform, causing the audience to feel a wave of anxiety and pressure.

"What are they doing? Are they trying to stare each other to death?" A mid Azure Sky Realm spectator couldn’t help but ask.

"Heh, you weakling, don’t speak. What do you know? This is a battle of wills between two top experts. They are using their minds to probe each other, trying to find the other’s flaw. Once they do, they are bound to strike with thunderous force!"

"Really, is it that mystical?" The mid Azure Sky Realm guy mumbled: "It’s not interesting at all, far less engaging than the previous three matches!"

In terms of the intensity of the battle, indeed, the current scene is quite dull! But in Ling Feng’s eyes, a super expert, the field is full of instantaneous changes, brimming with endless variables and killing intent.

At least, in Ling Feng’s eyes, Qi Shanhe and Nan Yidao have secretly clashed no less than a hundred times, but their level of battle is so high that ordinary people simply cannot fathom it.

Their battle of wills is becoming increasingly intense, and the atmosphere of the entire practice field is nearly stagnant. What they need now is a breaking point. Without it, whoever breaks it first will suffer severe backlash.
