One?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arena above, Zuo Yang, holding a long sword, knelt on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hair was disheveled, and he was in an extremely sorry state, with the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth being particularly striking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yang has actually lost?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible!” The crowd found it hard to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yang was the second-ranked core disciple, a talent whose cultivation had reached the peak of the Spirit Merging Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from Ouyang Kun, no one had been able to defeat him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, he had lost to Lin Xuan this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Lin Xuan once more became the focus of everyone’s discussions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, many compared him with Ouyang Kun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan’s current record made it almost certain for him to obtain a spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he still remained undefeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first place in this challenge competition would emerge between him and Ouyang Kun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Kun turned his head to look at Lin Xuan, his eyes holding a trace of disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too weak, so weak that he couldn’t even muster any interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a martial artist who had once participated in the Azure Dragon Society, Ouyang Kun, whether in terms of cultivation or vision, far surpassed Zuo Yang and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In everyone’s eyes, Lin Xuan was a devilish prodigy, but from his perspective, Lin Xuan was ordinary because he had seen too many prodigies at the Azure Dragon Society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The competition continued, and the final five spots were determined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The core disciples originally ranked in the top three each secured a spot, with the remaining two going to Hua Fei and Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tie Shou looked at Lin Xuan, lost in thought for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, he had only hoped Lin Xuan would face a setback to gain some experience in preparation for participating in the next Azure Dragon Society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he hadn’t expected Lin Xuan’s strength to be so formidable—not only did he secure a spot, but he also defeated the second-ranked Zuo Yang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such talent was a rarity in his lifetime!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wondered how Lin Xuan would fare against Ouyang Kun in battle, could he win?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somehow, Tie Shou felt a flicker of anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thought startled even himself, and subsequently, he let out a wry smile and shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was obviously impossible—Ouyang Kun’s strength was formidable, far beyond comparison with Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the arena, Lin Xuan and Ouyang Kun stood on opposite sides, about to engage in the final contest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd held their breath, watching quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they knew Lin Xuan had no chance of victory, deep down, they still harbored a sliver of hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, you’re not bad—I seem to see my former self in you,” Ouyang Kun spoke for the first time, his voice as solid as rock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With your aptitude and some tempering, you should have great hope in the next Azure Dragon Society,” he said in a tone of a senior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Senior Brother Ouyang,” Lin Xuan smiled, “But as cultivators, we should always strive for the utmost!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I may not take part in the next one, but in this one, I must shine with my own light!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Arrogant, ignorant!” Ouyang Kun let out a cold snort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At the Azure Dragon Society, there are countless prodigies much more devilish than you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems I need to let you witness some real power before you’ll come to your senses!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he stretched out his five fingers, and a trail of purple energy began to swirl around his fingertips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qiankun Demon Suppressing Hand!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A purple palm descended, the spiritual energy in the sky vibrated, creating a huge vortex, as the purple palm fell from the heavens, suppressing Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple palm was as real as a mountain, falling swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arena trembled, being forcefully pushed down three fathoms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan, however, performed the Void Spirit Illusion Demon Step, quickly dodging this strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could react, Ouyang Kun had already reached his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His right leg swept over like a Flood Dragon emerging from the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dull sound echoed across the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his desperation, Lin Xuan quickly activated his Silver Thunder Body to withstand the kick head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terrifying force sent him flying back, Lin Xuan sliding across the arena, leaving a deep trench behind him, all the way to the edge of the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the strike, Ouyang Kun stood with his hands behind his back, his voice steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s the gap between us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was astonished, not expecting that Ouyang Kun would send Lin Xuan reeling in just two moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Ouyang Kun was indeed formidable, surpassing many geniuses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan shook his numbed palm and his eyes blazed with an astonishing light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That kick indeed had given him a hard time, but his heart was thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been a long time since he’d encountered such an opponent who could make his blood boil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan’s lips curved into a smile, “Worthy of someone who has participated in the Azure Dragon Society, your strength is truly formidable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re an opponent worth my full effort!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan’s words caused a stir around him, with many wondering if the lad had any special moves up his sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But more people believed that Lin Xuan was merely boasting, trying to salvage some face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tie Shou also furrowed his brows, unable to guess what absolute skill Lin Xuan might have.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Kun sneered, “No matter what ultimate move you have, you can’t win against me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so?” Lin Xuan smiled as his hands rapidly formed seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Seal, release!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint sound echoed within him, and suddenly an immense and vast aura surged forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late-stage Fusion Spirit Realm!” The crowd’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He actually hid his cultivation, that’s too terrifying!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many went crazy; to hide a whole realm of cultivation and still maintain an unbeaten record was unthinkable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for Ouyang Kun, perhaps no one would have known that Lin Xuan’s true cultivation was actually the Late-stage Spirit Fusion Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yang and others felt a burning sensation on their faces as they looked at the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had always considered themselves geniuses, looking down on everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, they had been defeated by Lin Xuan, who had even suppressed his cultivation while fighting them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He actually hid his cultivation.” Tie Shou was also surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his own realm and insight, he had not noticed that Lin Xuan had concealed his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This little guy is interesting; he might just create some surprises.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the arena, Ouyang Kun looked at Lin Xuan, a touch of solemnity in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s futile, even if you are at the late stage, you couldn’t possibly win against me even if you were at the peak of the Fusion Realm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, it all ends here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was still echoing, but his figure had already reached Lin Xuan, with a purple light bursting from his body, fluttering like Divine Flame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His five fingers formed a claw, aiming for Lin Xuan’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan rapidly retreated while the Star Extreme Sword was unsheathed, with the hilt striking quickly against the purple palm, creating a clanking sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Lin Xuan grasped the longsword and swung it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword light fluttered silently, piercing towards Ouyang Kun’s shoulder in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sword integrated the Great Dragon Sword Intent and Wind Realm, not only was it incredibly sharp, but also reached the very limits of speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Ouyang Kun’s spiritual energy defense was sliced through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Ouyang Kun was extraordinary in strength, shaking his shoulder and turning his fingers into a knife-like shape, slicing quickly against the sword body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The longsword vibrated, creating a strange sword light in the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a tearing sound, and a piece of Ouyang Kun’s Iron Blood Battle Robe was chopped off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What, he almost injured Senior Brother Ouyang!” The crowd below exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many only saw the falling corner of the robe, unable to catch the trajectory of the sword or Ouyang Kun’s movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a few like Zuo Yang could barely make out the details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above, on the high platform, elders from the Big Banner Sect narrowed their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This lad is really full of surprises, Vice Sect Leader, where in the world did you find such an extraordinary talent?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1403,"2026-06-06T00:46:41.018Z",1,"novelbin.me","d87c216cc7c9615c0e98f7cdcd9d55f40016547b733288c65516f298efa8e5e8","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-107","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-106",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
