The spear in his hand was evidently being used as a shield. When the thirteenth sword descended, the sword broke free, like a wild horse, plunging into the crowd and wedged into the crevice between the tiles.
"I won!" Wanyan’s sword moved again and was already at the young man’s throat.
"Victory!"
"Wanyan, you’re amazing!"
The blue-clad figure and others immediately erupted in shouts of excitement.
Many sitting on the high platform favored Wanyan.
"To have the sword return to one’s side, she’s undoubtedly touched the realm of Man and Sword Unity, but she couldn’t have the sword return to her hand—it seems she hasn’t truly achieved genuine Man and Sword Unity." The speaker was an elderly woman, with Divine Profound cultivation and also the representative of the Three-star Influence here.
"Enough, be content. This girl’s talent in Sword Dao is not bad. If she opens the Meridian Gate, her Swordsmanship will surely be superior. Whether she has truly reached the realm of Man and Sword Unity, what does it matter." This time, the speaker was a young man, with cultivation equal to the old woman, but he directly withdrew a token from his Storage Ring and handed it to the servant beside him, "Go give it to the winner of platform number 3."
"Yes."
The servant immediately leapt down.
In addition, more than ten others moved towards Wanyan’s direction.
One-star and Two-star Influences knew they couldn’t compete, so they didn’t take out their disciple tokens.
"What’s Senior Brother Kewu trying to do?" Luo Mi leaned against the stand, feeling somewhat helpless.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he unexpectedly used Sword Control to interfere with the competition.
He was a bit too excessive for the one he liked.
Similarly, Yang Xi also noticed Lin Kewu using Sword Control Skill, yet he had no other intentions, focusing solely on Wanyan, observing her left and right.
"That’s the woman Senior Brother Kewu likes; she seems just average, her talent lags far behind Lele." Luo Mi was suddenly speechless.
"Senior Sister, if Zhao Qing hears you say this, do you think she’ll fall out with you?" Luo Mi laughed heartily; he thought it possible, considering Senior Sister Zhao Qing had often ’mistreated’ Senior Brother Lele because of Yang Xi.
As Luo Mi focused his gaze downward again, he saw Lin Kewu pushing through the crowd vigorously.
No doubt, he knew Senior Brother Kewu was eager with longing.
At this moment, facing the sudden presentation of more than ten tokens, Wanyan appeared a bit at a loss.
"Young lady, our Inner Sect of Three-star Mountain Liu Sect welcomes you."
"Our Shield Sword Sect welcomes you... You’re a swordswoman; our Shield Sword Sect suits you well."
The group spoke, talking over one another.
Lin Kewu was already slowly squeezing through to within a dozen steps of Wanyan.
"Wanyan!"
Lin Kewu called out softly, his face full of joy akin to a stranded traveler in a desert spotting an oasis.
