Chapter 34: The Great Thunder Sword
Hong Xiaobao and Ye Jinning stepped forward, standing in the middle of the hall while everybody else took two steps back. The atmosphere became immensely intense.
Hong Xiaobao had a height of 175cm, dressed in a prince robe, with a lean physique. Ye Jinning however, had broad shoulders and long limbs, not to mention his muscular body type due to his frequent training sessions, giving him a stronger look relatively.
Judging from the looks solely, they did not have that much of a difference. Nevertheless, Ye Jinning was the only son of Ye Feihong and had lots of guidance from his 8-star martial artist dad. The understanding of martial arts by Hong Xiaobao was simply incomparable to his.
Afterall, Ye Jinning was the most talented martial artist in a hundred years back at Thunder Sound Pavilion. He had multitudes of training and sparring experiences, otherwise the Head Teacher would not have abused the power of the Head Teacher Supreme Token to force Yun Caixiao to break of her engagement with Hong Xiaobao. Given the massive difference between them, everyone present knew that it would not be easy to take down Hong Xiaobao, considering his intelligence and stratagems he always had.
So, between the two young men, who was stronger? The entire Xuan Yang Pavilion was silent, even the sound of breathing could be heard.
“Please be careful!” Before even finishing the sentence, Ye Jinning began to make his move. His eyes suddenly brightened, greatly increasing his imposing manner. Within just under a second, Ye Jinning closed his distance between him and Hong Xiaobao and withdrew his long sword.
Thunder Sound Pavilion was known to be strong with swords. Being one of the Six Great Orthodoxies, eighty percent of the power was entirely sealed in the sword held by Ye Jinning. Even a simple front strike would produce lightning. Coupled with his True Qi, he was very powerful.
Ye Jinning had great attack and defense due to his two-star rank. He had a True Qi wall surrounding his entire body. Even if Hong Xiaobao managed to land his attacks on him, they would not be effective in the slightest.
Suddenly, Hong Xiaobao saw the long sword in front of his head, heading towards his brain. Afterall, he had just gotten the power and did not have any knowledge regarding the special moves of Blood Qi. At this moment, the situation was exceedingly tense, even a slightest bit of mistake would get him killed.
This duel could be considered to be held between a martial expert and a martial layman. All Hong Xiaobao could do was to dodge. Ye Jinning continued to strike, leaving no chance for Hong Xiaobao to attack. However, every hit he tried to land had missed. Ye Jinning got impatient and executed 3 continuous strikes which were fast as lightning and were faster after each hit. In a blink of an eye, his sword reached only an inch away from Hong Xiaobao’s chest.
Wow, he is indeed strong. Hong Xiaobao was shocked. He did not have any experience in sparring and could not predict the opponent’s next step. However, everyone else was even more astonished.
This Hong Xiaobao even managed to dodge the Triple Consecutive Strikes? Ye Feihong looked calm on the outside but was terrified on the inside. Back at the Thunder Sound Pavilion, most people could not dodge this move of Jinning but Hong Xiaobao ended up dodging all three strikes, not even his robe was cut! Just what kind of martial art does he practice? How did he gain such speed and agility?
Zuo Shixian also frowned and thought deeply, I have surveyed almost everybody in town who all told him that the Ninth Prince did not practice martial arts but today he is surprisingly fast. The move that Ye Jinning previously used was so sharp and swift, how did Xiaobao possibly dodge it?
Ye Feihong and Zuo Shixian were both well known in the Jiang Hu and had exceptional analysing skills.
At this moment on the field, although Hong Xiaobao was only dodging, Ye Jinning got even more shocked as he attacked. What? Did Hong Xiaobao just dodge my Triple Consecutive Strikes? Even most of the 3-star martial artists from Thunder Sound Pavilion are not able to dodge it without luck. How did he gain so much speed?
Ye Jinning felt that Hong Xiaobao was like a highly agile mouse. Although Hong Xiaobao had not started to attack yet, he was not damaged at all. Hong Xiaobao was just a newbie in martial arts but Ye Jinning himself was a genius found only once in a hundred years. Based on common sense, if Ye Jinning was not able to take down Hong Xiaobao with three moves, it was already very embarrassing.
No, if this battle continues like this, I would be greatly humiliated! Seems like I am forced to use my ultimate move — The Great Thunder Sword! I have been secretly training this particular move for a long time and wanted to use it during the Clash of Sects. I’ll just use it today regardless! Ye Jinning clenched his teeth tightly and changed his posture. The sword in his hand rushed towards Hong Xiaobao successively.
“Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!” Roars of thunder resounded throughout the skies.
Ye Jinning chased Hong Xiaobao who was constantly changing his position, just like a swift fish in the river, highly flexible and agile. The uncountable strikes exerted by the long sword brought about exploding sound of thunder. Looking at the condition, Ye Jinning truly grasped the essence of Thunder Sound Pavilion.
Such a strange move. Hong Xiaobao only felt the power suppressing him getting stronger and stronger over time. He dodged every single hit successfully, pushing himself to his limits and emitting steam around his body. This was the sign of the active flow of Blood Qi.
… …
“Brilliant!” Zuo Shixian was watching the two of them fight without even blinking his eyes for once.”The Great Thunder Sword is indeed powerful as rumored, with the power getting stronger slash after slash! I just don’t know how long Ye Jinning can sustain before knocking Hong Xiaobao down. However this Ninth Prince’s case is even more rare. There is still not a single sign of injury.”
Afterall, Hong Xiaobao was only a beginner in the world of martial arts. Being able to do this was certainly not easy.
“Splendid! You are indeed my worthy son!” Hong Wenqing cheered for his son. “Even if you end up losing, you have already made me proud! Being undefeated under The Great Thunder Sword is already impressive!” He was truly happy. Afterall, he understood Hong Xiaobao’s condition more than everyone else.
“Hmph!” Ye Feihong snorted and said in an imposing manner, “The Great Thunder Sword only gets stronger over time. I don’t believe this Hong Xiaobao can continue to dodge for long.”
The Great Thunder Sword, the strongest move amongst every other move available to 2-star martial artists, was not only named nicely, but also powerful.
On the battlefield, Ye Jinning chased around Hong Xiaobao. Strike after strike without an end!
The last strike almost pierced through Hong Xiaobao who shouted loudly, “Stop! Stop! I quit! Let’s rest for a while!”
