~9 min read 1,679 words

This sudden show-off by Li Chen really shocked everyone present.

Thousands of onlookers under the stage looked at Li Chen, dumbfounded, thinking that it was enough that this guy was so handsome, but he was also so smooth at showing off; it seemed he was truly a master.

Chu Ruoyan and Wu Nanzhi looked at the surprised look of the forging master Qiu Youneng and laughed until they were shaking.

Who told you to pick Li Chen to go up; he and his opponent were not at the same level.

Let alone giving him a treasure, even if you gave him a leaf, the opponent might not be able to beat him.

This statement sounded very exaggerated, but both of them felt that Li Chen could do it.

Li Chen was telling the truth; if he hadn't been holding this prop, if someone else had come, the opponent would have won long ago.

Since this was a competition of weapons, not technology, he said whatever he had to say.

And Li Chen also saw that the kid opposite was definitely cheating; it was definitely a script!

Could a cultivator who had just received the Separation Sword comprehend the matching sword moves so quickly?

Could such a genius exist?

Except for when Li Chen himself looked in the mirror, he couldn't find a second person.

If the opponent were really that badass, how could he be beaten down by him so easily?

Since the opponent was cheating, Li Chen was too lazy to let him win.

Besides, he actually hadn't intended to let him win either.

But then again, everyone could see that Zhao Chong was indeed powerful, just that the opponent he encountered wasn't at the same level.

Forging master Qiu Youneng heard Li Chen say this, and his face couldn't hold it, saying: "How is that possible? His sword is fancy, and even if it hits someone, it has no power. Are you a shill he hired?"

"Then why don't the two of us try?" Speaking of this, Li Chen returned the sword to him with a speechless face, and then with a hook of his finger, the Separation Sword hilt that had been knocked to the ground flew into Li Chen's hand.

Then he slightly urged his energy, and the five sword blades came whistling over with a "swoosh," "swoosh."

An exquisite long sword appeared in Li Chen's hand, the sword body flashing with cold light.

Just standing there, he had an invisible pressure that made people feel a bit breathless.

Seeing this, the onlookers rubbed their eyes, looking incredulous.

"This guy's sword intent is so exaggerated; it feels like a sword immortal possessed him!"

"Could he be the legendary fastest sword in the imperial capital, Feng Wuhen?"

"I've seen Feng Wuhen; he's a bit handsome, but definitely not as exaggeratedly handsome as him, but I think only Feng Wuhen can compare with his sword intent."

"No wonder that guy couldn't beat him even by cheating; it turns out he encountered a true sword master."

There were many knowledgeable sword cultivators under the stage who could see that Zhao Chong's proficiency with the Separation Sword was very high; if this wasn't a shill, what was?

Li Chen was just taking a sword stance, and it had already caused a sensation under the stage.

He really didn't tolerate anyone; I said there was a problem and you didn't believe it, so you try it yourself.

Qiu Youneng was definitely not convinced; this Spiral Sword was his proud work, and he had used it himself; it had the power to break ten thousand catties!

Hearing Li Chen say he wanted to try with him, he said: "I was born with great strength, and it's hard to hold back my strength when striking; you watch out and dodge."

Li Chen urged: "Don't worry, exert your strength however you want; can your level kill me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was another sigh from the onlookers under the stage.

That Qiu Youneng was a long-famous master; brother, you're showing off like this, are you really not afraid of being beaten to death?

Qiu Youneng was also a bit angry.

Fine, fine, fine, you said it yourself.

Young and arrogant, are you! I'll let you know what a true expert is!

I am a master who once reached the top 72 in the Imperial Capital Sword Dao Assembly, and now I'm being looked down upon by a junior.

If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know the gold content of the top 72 in the Imperial Capital Sword Dao Assembly!

I admit you have some ability, but I am stronger!

As soon as Qiu Youneng made a move, sword energy crisscrossed, centered on him, and surged outward; wherever it passed, grass and trees withered, and dust flew.

Coupled with the terrifying power generated by the rotation of the Spiral Sword, countless spectators began to retreat.

This was the strength of a famous expert in the imperial capital; even if he was just a blacksmith, it was enough to prove that the imperial capital was full of hidden talents.

But what he was facing was Li Chen.

As Li Chen swung the Separation Sword, the sword body kept making crackling sounds.

The broken sword, which originally only had five sword blades, was constantly splitting, instantly turning into thousands of sword blades. Golden energy was attached to every piece of sword blade, and that sword light was enough to illuminate the firmament!

Immediately after, a sword intent permeated with mighty divine power tore through the void!

Its power could also destroy the entire competition venue!

In an instant, sword energy permeated, and divine energy rippled!

The moment Li Chen swung the Separation Sword, the energy of heaven and earth seemed to be drained!

The intense golden light made everything dim!

Shocking!

An incomparable shock appeared before everyone's eyes!

That sword intent was enough to make everyone feel fear!

The faces of thousands of onlookers under the stage were filled with horror, and people not far away also looked over in panic, wanting to see what had happened here.

Forging master Qiu Youneng was like a candle in the wind in front of this terrifying sword intent; he was just simply grazed by the edge of the sword energy, instantly flying backward more than ten meters, rolling more than ten times until he hit the tree trunk behind him and stopped.

This guy's eyes were already terrified to the point of being hollow; he had just faced this sword energy directly, and no one knew Li Chen's terror better than him.

No wonder he told me not to hold back; with my level, I'm not even fit to carry his shoes!

After all this ended, the scene returned to calm.

Everyone was like they had been frozen, quiet and not daring to make a sound.

In the distance, above the firmament, a sword mark that cut through the clouds made people swallow their saliva involuntarily.

!

It seemed to remind them at all times that the terrifying sword intent that made people suffocate just now was real.

Even though this move had passed for a while, everyone's hearts were still beating wildly.

That feeling, it was fortunate that Li Chen slashed towards the sky; if he had slashed horizontally, everyone at the scene would have died on the spot.

Seeing Qiu Youneng's ghost-seeing appearance, Li Chen didn't take it to heart.

I said I was very strong, you didn't believe it? Didn't I just show it to you?

If I had dawdled and competed with you a few times, you might have thought I was just lucky.

This sword tells you the gap.

As for the appearance of this Separation Sword now, which was as bright as a galaxy, it was the unique refining ability after the imperial Li family's technique was cultivated to the extreme.

No matter what prop he grabbed, he could refine it in an instant!

Turning it into something he wanted.

The founding emperor was able to win the world; this was one of his abilities!

In the entire imperial family, I'm afraid only Li Chen could use this move.

After all, where could a normal sword withstand a strike from Li Chen?

This scene was too shocking, causing many people to still not have reacted until now.

Zhao Chong, who had been very disappointed after being defeated just now, felt that his loss was a matter of course!

With such an expert opposite, how could he win?

Li Chen turned back, threw the refined Separation Sword to Zhao Chong, and said: "Cultivate well, don't go astray; your talent is still quite good."

After saying this, Li Chen left here and disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

The showing off was done, so he definitely had to leave.

Not long after Li Chen left, the people under the stage went completely crazy.

At the beginning, someone shouted a price of 100,000 taels of silver, demanding to buy the sword Li Chen had just used.

This was already a very high price, but as a result, before the words were finished, others started to add prices crazily, and it had already been added to a terrifying number.

Zhao Chong wasn't a fool; could this be sold? This was already at the level of a divine weapon!

Let alone 100,000 taels of silver, I wouldn't sell it for 100,000 taels of gold!

When the people under the stage heard he wouldn't sell, the bold ones went up directly to snatch it!

"Master, fellow disciples, cover me quickly!"

Saying this, Zhao Chong hugged the divine weapon and turned to run!

This bunch of people looked at the divine weapon like mad dogs; could Zhao Chong not be afraid?

For a time, the area around the entire competition venue began to become chaotic.

The culprit of all this had already walked far away.

And that sword of his had already become a legend in this place!
