Chapter 247: This Sword Strike Will Be Very Handsome
"It's useless to say anything today! You dare to humiliate my Supreme Academy like this; I will not spare you today!"
Yun Xintong's eyes were filled with coldness. In the blink of an eye, he had appeared before Shen Jingbin and slashed out with his sword once more.
This sword strike was as fast as lightning and extremely fierce, as if it were about to tear the heavens and earth asunder.
"No! You could have just deducted 20 of my reputation points and been done with it; why do you have to resort to violence!"
Shen Jingbin's figure retreated explosively, dodging repeatedly. He no longer wanted to fight with Yun Xintong.
After all, the filth had been splashed, the people were dead, and the grudge should have ended there.
Based on Shen Jingbin's understanding of his good disciple Ye Lin, there was likely a hidden story behind this, and perhaps the deaths of those people were indeed Ye Lin's doing.
Shen Jingbin was just crazy; he wasn't stupid.
"Enough nonsense! You aren't leaving today!"
The three-foot green blade in Yun Xintong's hand pressed straight toward Shen Jingbin's throat, his strikes extremely ruthless.
The two collided incessantly, sword Qi and fist wind reflecting each other's brilliance. The surrounding crowd watched with heart-palpitating fear, not daring to even breathe. For others, even being grazed by the aftermath of a battle of this level would be fatal.
Many students of the Supreme Academy were even recording this scene earnestly; after all, opportunities to see a powerhouse like Yun Xintong in action were rare.
The last time Yun Xintong had taken action was three years ago, when a wave of demonic creatures had blindly approached Yinmeng Mountain.
Yun Xintong stood at the summit and slashed out with one sword, annihilating a third of the demonic wave instantly, scaring the remaining creatures into scattering and fleeing.
In the eyes of the Supreme Academy students, Yun Xintong was synonymous with power!
"Damn you! Do you really think I don't dare to blast you?"
Shen Jingbin was also provoked into a rage. When Yun Xintong attacked with his sword again, Shen Jingbin was quick-witted and seized the moment, pressing his palms together to perform a "bare-handed blade catch" for Yun Xintong.
Clang!
Accompanied by a crisp sound of metal clashing, two shallow palm prints appeared on the body of Yun Xintong's sword, making his heart ache uncontrollably.
This Shengxie Sword had been with him for a long time, and Yun Xintong had long since treated it like family. Seeing the sword damaged now, rage rose from his heart and malice grew from his gall.
"Today I want your life!" Yun Xintong roared, waving the long sword in his hand. Countless sword beams slashed toward Shen Jingbin in succession, every strike ruthless.
But seeing this, Shen Jingbin was not afraid but delighted.
"You want to kill me? Great! Then I am acting in legitimate self-defense! Everyone, please be my witnesses!"
Shen Jingbin, who had been avoiding the fight until now, stopped dodging. His originally thin frame instantly swelled up, and the bulging muscles even tore his clothes apart.
At this moment, even the wrinkles on Shen Jingbin's face faded. His white hair danced without wind, his posture was heroic and imposing, and he radiated an aura that dominated the world!
Many students of the Supreme Academy even felt an involuntary urge to kneel and submit.
Transformed into a muscular hunk, Shen Jingbin faced the sky full of sword shadows without the slightest fear. He raised his right arm, his five fingers slowly closing, and his fist glowed with a crystalline light like jade.
In an instant, the entire Yinmeng Mountain trembled.
Boom!
As Shen Jingbin unleashed his full power, a fist strike that dominated the heavens and earth blasted away the sky full of sword shadows. The golden fist force surged forward like a bottomless ocean, as if to destroy everything in the world!
Bang!
Yun Xintong's figure was sent flying like a cannonball by this punch, crashing directly into one of the Supreme Academy's teaching buildings, his life or death unknown.
"Everyone, watch closely! I only threw one punch! It completely meets the standards of legitimate self-defense; there was no excessive force! You are all my eyewitnesses!" Shen Jingbin said hurriedly.
The crowd at the Supreme Academy dared not make a sound.
Their Dean Yun had been knocked motionless by a single punch; how could they dare to speak?
Bang!
Debris and dust splashed out as Yun Xintong rushed out from the ruins, his expression extremely ugly.
Although Shen Jingbin's punch had only caused him minor external injuries, being treated like a punching bag in front of everyone was a massive blow to his spirit.
One had to know, he was the untainted Sword Cultivator Dean Yun of the Supreme Academy!
Now, if he wanted to save face, the only way was to kill Shen Jingbin with one sword strike!
"Shen Jingbin, you are not allowed to dodge the next sword strike. If you can take it, then the grudge between my Supreme Academy and you will be wiped clean. How about it?" Yun Xintong said coldly.
"As long as I don't dodge?" Shen Jingbin asked.
"Yes!"
"Fine!"
Seeing Shen Jingbin agree, Yun Xintong cursed him as an idiot in his heart.
Aside from needing time to build up power, this sword strike of his had no other weaknesses.
If Shen Jingbin dared to take it head-on, he dared to make him bleed on the spot!
"All members of the Supreme Academy, watch closely!"
Yun Xintong's two fingers wiped across the sword body, and the Shengxie Sword lit up with a sharp edge, trembling violently.
"Because this sword strike will be very handsome!"
"Spirit Nether Heaven-Slaying Art!"
Yun Xintong held the Shengxie Sword high. Fierce sword Qi gathered continuously, steaming and condensing into an illusory giant sword above his head, its momentum enough to split the heavens and earth!
As the sword Qi condensed, the giant sword became increasingly real!
Just by staring at that giant sword, the students of the Supreme Academy felt their skin stinging with pain.
"Dean Yun is getting serious!"
"Truly terrifying. Looking across the entire Great Xia, the number of people who can block this sword strike from the Dean won't exceed the number of fingers on two hands, right?"
"Dean Yun has long since condensed his own Sword Intent; this is the highest realm a Sword Cultivator class-changer can reach!"
The students of the Supreme Academy discussed it heatedly. Many students who were also Sword Cultivators immediately took out their phones to record, starting to document every move of Yun Xintong.
They wanted to record this sword strike of Yun Xintong's so they could repeatedly observe and study it afterward.
Sword Cultivator class-changers even felt that being able to see Yun Xintong unleash such a sword strike at full power today made it worth it, even if they had been doused in manure!
Just as they were excitedly recording and waiting for Yun Xintong to slash out with this sword, a figure as fast as lightning suddenly appeared in the frame, arriving before Yun Xintong in the blink of an eye.
Seeing Shen Jingbin suddenly appear before him, Yun Xintong was also shocked.
"You..."
Before Yun Xintong could even finish the word "you," Shen Jingbin's iron fist had already landed on his lower abdomen. Yun Xintong's body instantly curled up; he felt as if his internal organs had been displaced by that punch.
But it wasn't over yet. What followed was a combination of punches from Shen Jingbin, each one landing solidly, repeatedly pounding until Yun Xintong's flesh became bouncy and firm.
As Yun Xintong was punched flying by Shen Jingbin and fell onto the Supreme Academy's plaza, the giant sword in the sky that had not yet finished condensing dissipated at this moment.
"You have no martial virtue..."
Lying on the ground, Yun Xintong stared at Shen Jingbin with grief and indignation. Facing his questioning, Shen Jingbin sneered.
"Idiot, I said I wouldn't dodge, but I didn't say I would wait for you to finish charging up. Do you think I'm a monster from a show? Do I have to wait for the opponent to finish their armor transformation before I know to attack?"
