Chapter 800: Fight Until One Concedes?
The Greatsword loomed like a slanting mountain peak, giving off an unstoppable momentum.
At that instant, each person's chest felt as if a massive stone pressed down, making it hard to breathe.
With such a gigantic sword and such terrifying power, could Ye Qingran truly withstand it?
Ye Feixing's eyes churned with dark currents; he intended to make Ye Qingran pay a painful price!
"Is that all?"
Yet Ye Qingran simply lifted her head for a brief glance, then gave a disdainful smile.
Is that all?
The crowd was stunned; in the next instant, Ye Qingran raised a finger upward and gently ordered, "Go!"
The Ruinous King's Sword transformed into a flash of light, shooting toward Ye Feixing's Sky-Piercing Giant Sword.
From a distance, the scene resembled an ant trying to shake a great tree; no one believed such a lightly‑drawn strike could halt the Greatsword's devastating onslaught.
However...
Ding~
When the large sword and the small sword clashed, a crisp sound rang in everyone's ears.
Immediately afterward, under the shocked gazes of the onlookers, the Greatsword was rebounded, flipped several times, then abruptly shrank and fell to the ground...
Golden light flickered, and within a few breaths it dimmed!
What!
Everyone who witnessed the scene with their own eyes was dumbfounded.
Considering the Golden Spike Sword contains numerous powerful Rune Power and is bolstered by Ye Feixing's Mysterious Force, how could it be so easily dispelled?
Ye Feixing himself seemed stunned, standing there without immediately retrieving the sword, merely standing dumbfounded, his thoughts unknown.
In the countless gazes, an endless blaze surged; the looks at Ye Qingran were now completely different from before.
Ye Qingran raised her hand in a gesture, and the Ruinous King's Sword returned to her hand.
Only then did the crowd realize that the sword was still sheathed!
When will it finally be unsheathed?
Yet even unsheathed, it still possesses such formidable power!
Ye Qingran's slender jade-like fingers brushed the Sword Sheath of the Ruinous King's Sword, finally resting in the groove on the hilt.
"I have a sword, named Gongyu."
Gongyu?
The so‑called Gongyu is one who rectifies mistakes.
Ye Qingran is implying that Ye Feixing should return from his wayward path and not keep making the same mistake.
So, she knew from the start that Ye Feixing was not her opponent?
Ye Feixing, of course, also caught Ye Qingran's implied meaning.
But how could he possibly accept it?
He is the top‑ranked youth of the Floating Life Realm; when would it be Ye Qingran's turn to teach him?
Does she deserve it?
Ye Feixing's expression was so grim it seemed water could drip from it, "Ye Qingran, do you think that's all my ability? You underestimate me far too much!"
As Ye Feixing spoke, he actually carved a Talisman in public!
"Ye Feixing, don't go too far!"
The speaker was Lu Shen.
Zhai Xing Pavilion, well‑versed in the Way of Runes, using a Talisman in a contest would be unfair to Ye Qingran.
"What, only swordsmanship is allowed, but not the art of Runes?"
"We, Young Master Ye, aren't using pre‑carved Talismans; I'm carving one on the spot, so how is that excessive?"
"If Ye Qingran understood Runes, she could draw them too!"
The members of Zhai Xing Pavilion replied sarcastically.
They were convinced Ye Qingran didn't know Runes, while Ye Feixing excelled at Rune arts; with a Talisman's boost, Ye Qingran certainly couldn't match him!
Ye Feixing let out a cold laugh, "I recall the former head of Jade Autumn Sect once said that Ye Qingran possesses the ability to suppress an era; with such extraordinary talent, she surely wouldn't be ignorant of the Way of Runes, right?"
When Ye Feixing said that, the disciples of Jade Autumn Sect were left speechless, one after another.
Even with Ye Qingran's lofty talent, she can't possibly master everything.
Moreover, Runes aren't easy to learn; they require not only talent but also massive time, and they've never heard that Ye Qingran knows Runes.
"How do you know I understand Runes?"
Ye Qingran raised an eyebrow and asked, seemingly surprised that Ye Feixing thought she understood Runes.
The crowd's gazes at Ye Qingran grew increasingly complex.
Is Ye Qingran just joking?
Ye Feixing naturally wouldn't believe Ye Qingran knew Runes, but he didn't expose her; instead he went along, saying, "I'm actually curious—how does a genius who can suppress an era wield the Way of Runes?"
Ye Feixing forced a thin smile.
The Golden Spike Sword returned to Ye Feixing's hand; he pushed its power to the limit, then produced a wolf‑hair brush and carved a Talisman in the void!
Everyone was familiar with this scene; Rune masters all have their own dedicated brush for carving Runes.
Ye Qingran watched the scene, shook her head, and asked, "When carving a Talisman, do you still need a brush?"
The remark drew a lot of mockery.
"Sounds like a Xiao Bai!"
"Exposed! She doesn't understand Runes at all!"
"Make a big show, act like a big shot—appraisal complete!"
Ye Qingran shrugged, and didn't take those mocking voices to heart.
Ye Feixing quickly drew a rune, and those in the crowd who understood the Way of Runes recognized it at a glance.
"This is the Saint‑Slaying Talisman!"
The Saint‑Slaying Talisman possesses the power to slay saints!
Back then, when she was in Beimingzhou, Ye Qingran had used the Saint‑Slaying Talisman and slain several saints.
Ye Feixing's ability to inscribe the Saint‑Slaying Talisman shows his mastery of the Way of Runes is great; he is a truly powerful Rune Master.
"So impressive!"
"To inscribe the Saint‑Slaying Talisman in such a short time—truly a peerless prodigy!"
"First on the Earth Ranking, the name lives up to its reputation!"
There were plenty of Rune Masters present, yet even those who had lived for dozens of years felt inferior before Ye Feixing.
Ye Feixing then immediately inscribed another Talisman—a Debuff Talisman—that weakens the opponent's strength while bolstering one's own, which is also quite formidable.
"Ye Qingran, are you voluntarily conceding, or shall I keep beating you until you submit?"
