Chapter 732: Chapter 732: Continuing the Winning Streak
This stout man is quite strong, at the mid-stage of Great Achievement!
He’s a lot more formidable than those guys Jiang Xiaobai previously fought.
His reaction speed is incredibly sharp, he manages to dodge in an instant!
The distance between them widens, without either having the intention to capitalize on their advantage.
Both their faces are filled with gravity.
They both felt the other’s discomfort.
“Humph, didn’t expect you to have some skills.”
The stout man sneers, “The rumors before said you were only at the end of the Tribulation Crossing stage, now you’ve advanced to the mid-stage of Great Achievement, seems like you’ve had a lucky break, huh?”
“Maybe, you are a genius of the upper three thousand worlds, but I’m a genius of the middle three thousand, and I do not fear you!”
With an enraged roar, the stout man steps on the stage, causing the earth to tremble and shake.
His three-meter tall body fiercely charges toward Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai plans to dodge, but finds this brute surprisingly quick.
He abandons the idea of trying to dodge, and instead, he thrusts his longsword fiercely toward his opponent.
Bang!
A shocking event occurs; the longsword in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand shatters into pieces in the air!
However, the stout man’s arm is as if nothing has happened!
Jiang Xiaobai is stunned!
Has this man cultivated his body into a treasure?
It’s so resilient!
“Useless thing, with your skills, you dare to…”
The stout man cockily starts to taunt, but his expression suddenly changes.
Because Jiang Xiaobai has vanished from sight, moving so swiftly that he can’t keep up!
Whoosh!
The next second, his sword pierces through the man’s arm from behind!
“Haha, I knew it! You couldn’t possibly have put every part of your body through the refining process.”
“Or should I say, your cultivation technique isn’t capable of achieving that!”
Laughing crazily, Jiang Xiaobai strikes with three consecutive thrusts!
One stabs his lower abdomen, another stabs his collarbone, and the final one aims for his heart.
Indeed, the stout man’s weak spot is his back.
Therefore, he cultivated a horrific body technique to increase his speed.
But he never expected Jiang Xiaobai to be faster!
Needless to say, his speed can already crush most of the late-stage geniuses of the Great Achievement realm in the world!
But, in the end, he lost!
As the stout man’s silhouette flickers, he reappears in the short distance.
The expression on his face is thoroughly confused.
“Impossible, how could your speed be so fast?”
The stout man can’t believe it.
“In martial arts, speed is the key!”
“Don’t you know, the most important thing for a sword practitioner is speed?”
Jiang Xiaobai grins, standing with his hands clasped behind him.
He inclines his chin to the stout man.
The meaning is clear: it’s time to honor the wager.
The stout man’s face becomes flushed, he can’t reconcile this loss in his heart.
After all, he believes he still has a chance to slay Jiang Xiaobai.
Why did he lose?
“Honor your wager!”
The will of the War God’s Realm speaks.
The man can’t take it any longer.
He has a fair chance of entering the rankings of the Three Thousand Realm’s Genius List.
If he doesn’t honor his wager now, he won’t be able to enter the War God’s Realm, that’s absolutely impossible!
The once-in-a-hundred-years competition cannot be missed!
Thud!
The stout man instantly kneels and starts apologizing to Jiang Xiaobai.
People watching this, their eyes are about to pop out!
“What kind of genius is this Jiang Xiaobai?”
“That’s right, the stout man is extremely formidable, I have heard about his feats in the War God’s Realm, he has a high probability to enter the Three Thousand Realm’s Genius List, but now, he lost to Jiang Xiaobai that easily?”
“Are his sword techniques really this mystifyingly unpredictable?”
The crowd is in shock, people are finding it hard to believe the truth.
“Little brother, I didn’t expect your techniques to be this unique.”
“But don’t worry, from now on, you are Mr. Jiang’s little brother, you will have your big bro to back you up. If you need anything just tell your big bro, and I’ll sort it out for you!”
Jiang Xiaobai laughs.
The stout man knows how to conduct himself and admits his loss quite readily!
Jiang Xiaobai is quite pleased with him.
The stout man’s face turns red, he keeps his head low and doesn’t want to speak.
He is continuously replaying the previous fight in his mind, wanting to know desperately how he was defeated?
Finally, he realizes, Jiang Xiaobai’s speed was too fast.
Fast to the point where he could not catch up.
One could say that someone who’s fast naturally counters the stout man.
Ignoring him, Jiang Xiaobai starts selecting from the crowded stage.
He then sets his sight on a man standing with a sword.
This man exudes a sharp aura, indicating he is a sword practitioner.
He’s also incredibly strong, reaching the peak realm of the mid-stage of Great Achievement.
From his aura, he could very likely be a genius from the upper three thousand worlds.
The swordsman, upon getting noticed by Jiang Xiaobai, is taken aback.
He didn’t expect Jiang Xiaobai’s next target to be him.
Soon after, Jiang Xiaobai lands on his stage and curiously asks.
“Do you also fancy my wife, think I’m not worthy of her, and want to steal her from me?”
“No,”
The swordsman answers plainly, “I only heard that there is a sword bearer who is incredibly arrogant, who nobody can withstand even one of his swords.”
“Recently my sword technique seems to have hit a bottleneck, so I came to test myself against you.”
The swordsman’s deep-set eyes gleam with light.
“The bet can stay the same, if you can beat me, it proves that you are stronger and worthy to be my boss.”
Jiang Xiaobai bursts into laughter: “I like your disposition. Alright, I’ll take you as my little brother!”
“Don’t be too quick to rejoice, you haven’t seen my sword yet.”
The swordsman speaks indifferently, swirling his long sword in the air, creating a beautiful flower of swaying blades.
The crowds below gasp in surprise.
“He is that sword genius, Shen Lian!”
“What, is it that Shen Lian who is ranked in the eight-thousands on the genius list?”
“Yes, it’s him. This time, this Jiang Xiaobai is courting death. He’s actually challenging Shen Lian!”
For a while, the crowd breaks into mocking laughter.
Even though Jiang Xiaobai was able to defeat the previous stout man, he is absolutely no match for Shen Lian!
Everyone knows that each person on the Three Thousand Realm’s Genius List, in the War God’s Realm, is formidable.
Every step up in the rankings means an exponential increase in power!
Not to mention Shen Lian who is ranked in the eight-thousands!
Jiang Xiaobai is doomed this time!
“Didn’t expect you to be so popular, looking at that, you must be very powerful.” Jiang Xiaobai laughs.
Shen Lian shakes his head indifferently, “I can also see that you are not very well-liked.”
“I can’t help it. After all, I’m handsome and a prodigy among prodigies. Wherever I go, I’m envied, hated and admired. I’ve gotten used to it over the years.”
The color drains from Shen Lian’s face instantly.
“The rumors about you being a shameless rascal among swordsmen seem to be true.”
Zing!
Swinging his sword, Shen Lian points it at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Fight!”
The next second, Jiang Xiaobai pulls out his long sword and charges at Shen Lian.
This is the first time, since this event started, that Jiang Xiaobai went on the offensive immediately.
Shen Lian is also not to be outdone, he lifts up his sword and charges as well.
Clang Clang Clang!
Their swords constantly clash in the air, creating a cascade of sparks.
The spectators below are trembling in their boots!
Their swords are so fast!
