Chapter 1003: One Sword

Just as everyone was still in a daze.

An utterly plain voice suddenly came from all directions: "This place is already covered by my power. Feel free to spar without worry..."

That voice is... the Clan Chief?!

All the Jiang clan members present widened their eyes and instantly recognized who was speaking.

And those prodigies of the three great Dynasties, after being stunned for several breaths, finally reacted as well.

They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with horror!

No one had expected that this Jiang Clan Chief, whose strength was unfathomable, would still be secretly watching the situation after leaving!

As for those strong practitioners at the Primordial Spirit realm and even the Heaven and Man realm, this came as no surprise at all.

After all, Jiang Clan Chief was a supreme expert at the Sovereign level.

Let alone investigating the situation at Cangwu Mountain, even investigating the situation at Tiandou Prefecture was merely a matter of a single thought.

In the arena.

As the prodigies of the three great Dynasties and the Cangwu Jiang clan members stepped back, leaving all the space within the circular barrier to the two.

Ji Feibai raised his head and said with a smile: "Your clan chief's move is quite wonderful, perfectly to my liking!"

"After all, I don't want to cause extra destruction on the very first day the Cangwu Academy is established, ruining..."

Before Ji Feibai could finish speaking.

Jiang Zhiwei's cold voice suddenly came: "If a single brick or tile of the academy is destroyed, I will take your life with my own hands."

Hearing this, Ji Feibai's expression stiffened, and the words on the tip of his tongue could never be spoken.

But soon, he lowered his head slightly, gripped his spear tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Hmph! I can't be bothered to argue with a mere woman!"

The moment the words fell.

Whoosh—

A gust of cold wind hit his face.

Every hair on Ji Feibai's body stood on end!

He suddenly looked up and saw sword light flash, an ethereal figure hidden within it, holding a cyan longsword in one hand, attacking!

Not daring to be careless, he gripped the spear shaft tightly with both hands, hurriedly swung his spear, sending out afterimages, and thrust with the sharp spearhead!

Clang—

The spear tip collided with the sword body, splashing out a large amount of sparks, and even erupted with a shocking force, carrying an aura of destruction, spreading in all directions!

But under the influence of the power left behind by Jiang Daoxuan, in merely an instant, these auras were suppressed, shrank back, no longer overflowing, merging with the two figures' forms, showing nothing extraordinary!

Seen from afar, the exchange between the two appeared utterly ordinary, with no primordial power surging out, nor any damage done to the surroundings.

Everything looked completely unlike a clash between Sun Wheel realm cultivators, but rather like a clash between Innate martial artists!

Immediately after, an immensely powerful impact force blasted the two apart.

Jiang Zhiwei retreated one step, landing lightly, elegant and composed!

In contrast, Ji Feibai was blasted back six steps; although he managed to halt his form, the spear tip was still trembling ceaselessly!

It was merely a simple probe, yet he had clearly fallen at a disadvantage!

Under Ji Feibai's solemn gaze, Jiang Zhiwei said softly: "A mere woman? We cultivators should revere strength above all else; this is an eternal, unchanging truth. How can you, like a common mortal, be trapped by superficial distinctions between men and women, judging by gender?"

"You are at least a Sun Wheel realm cultivator, how can you fail to grasp such a simple principle?"

Ji Feibai's brows shot up, veins faintly bulging at both temples.

Being lectured by Jiang Zhiwei in front of everyone, becoming a laughingstock among the prodigies of the three great Dynasties—how could he endure it?!

He snorted coldly, gripped his spear tightly, and was about to strike again.

But at this moment, Jiang Zhiwei shook her head: "Your thinking is pedantic, every word drips with contempt for women, it's nauseating. I had originally thought that today is the auspicious day for our clan's academy to be established, and that guests should be treated with respect, so I planned to let you last a few more moves under my hand and save you some face. But now, it seems there's no need!"

The moment the words fell, Ji Feibai's heart skipped a beat, suddenly sensing something was wrong!

Immediately after, under his gaze.

Jiang Zhiwei, clad in cyan, raised her right hand holding the sword, bringing her arm level with the hilt.

Sword intent began to gather, converging at the sword tip.

Even with the influence of the power Jiang Daoxuan had casually left behind, the mighty force of the Samsara Sword intent still broke through a sliver of its shackles, spilling out, transforming into resplendent divine light, covering the sword body!

"I will strike only this one sword. If you can block it, it counts as my defeat!"

The moment these words were spoken, the entire audience was shocked!!

Countless gazes converged on Jiang Zhiwei, all utterly astonished by her!

Defeat Ji Feibai, ranked eleventh on the Prodigy Ranking, with a single sword?

What kind of dream talk are you spouting?!

Being so overconfident will surely bring disaster!

While the crowd was shocked, they couldn't help but think.

If she truly succeeded.

Then the true strength of this White Rainbow Sword King was likely far beyond the rumors, fully capable of claiming a spot in the top five of the Eastern Domain Prodigy Ranking!
