Beyond the Heavens Edge has been drawn!

At the time, cold energy exuded in all directions in the ring. The reflection of the blade was crystal-clear which spoke volumes to its sharpness.

While Jia Yunfeng had lost his internal energy, his swordplay skills were still intact. When he drew his sword, there was a cold line of lightning that accompanied the blade. He then thrust it straight at Xiang Batian, almost piercing his guts. Xiang Batian couldnt react in time and felt the pain in his chest. He quickly retreated. Jia Yunfeng gave chase with his sword tip leading.

One retreated while the other gave chase. A drip of blood flew through the air. Turns out Beyond the Heavens Edge had already stabbed through his chest-flesh in that moment before.

Despite Xiang Batians efforts to retreat, he couldnt put distance between them. The tip of the sword was just a hair-length away from his chest. But if he were to continue retreating, he would be ringed-out. Qinggong wasnt his specialty, nor did he possess wondrous inner arts like Tang Ye, so he couldnt climb his way back by grabbing onto the wooden beams.

Xiang Batians caveman-like intelligence then kicked in. He focused his energy to his feet and stamped the ground hard. If he did that in the previous rings, he would probably make a hole and fall to his death.

But the rings in the flying fish pavilion were different. Their bamboo components showed their sturdiness. They managed to withstand Xiang Batians heavy weight and sling him like a catapult.

Since Xiang Batian poisoned Jia Yunfeng, Jia Yunfeng naturally couldnt use his qinggong since his internal energy was a mess, and as such, couldnt chase him. However, the bloody mark left behind on his flesh from Beyond the Heavens Edges tip was still there.

Xiang Batian escaped death. He cursed and raised his hands up, turned them into sabres and charged over.

Jia Yunfeng didnt panic because he was in a pinch. He knew that his sword was his only hope. Relying on the sharpness of his sword, he used six to seven quick moves to put Xiang Batian on his back-foot. After that he used Hua Shans sword techniques to prevent Xiang Batian from getting close. Although there were other bouts taking place in all four rings, the emperor focused on their fight with a strong interest.

“Those two are quite good. Jia Yunfengs Hua Shan sword play is evidently masterful. Thats a sect leader for you. Xiang Batian isnt bad either. He doesnt get scared when he finds himself in a pinch. Chenger, whats Xiang Batians background”

The orange prince smiled and said: “The Xiang family is mothers servants. Xiang Batian is the Xiang familys disciple. He joined me half-a-year ago. I dont know the origin of his martial arts myself.”

Shen Yiren chuckled coldly to herself: Bull**-artist. You dont know Have you forgotten how many times hes done bad things under your orders I cant believe youd put all the blame on your mother.

She couldnt handle him and therefore shot a glare at him before picking up the wine on the table and having a drink. She felt that the taste was a little sweet, and was therefore no common wine.

Jia Yunfeng had finally made his comeback by relying on his sword. Spotting an opportunity, he used Hundred Birds Worshipping the Phoenix! Beyond the Heavens Edge transformed into thousands of bird beaks, entrapping Xiang Batian left and right.

The hundred birds worshipping the phoenix was once used against Ming Feizhen, but was countered by him with Taijiquan. But the version Jia Yunfeng used was a consecutive string of strikes without any pauses. It was like unified version leaving his opponent with no room to counter.

His move was powerful like a flock of birds flying over. Because of Beyond the Heavens Edge transparent blade, it looked like thunger claps as silver lights flashed between the two of them. The crowd witness the sharpness of his sword earlier on. It looks like Xiang Batian is going to get cut up this time. It looks like the white ring is going to get covered in his blood and flesh at this rate.

But that wasnt what happened. A shocking sound from inside the ring of snow could be heard. The sound of metal clanging could be heard from inside the ring of blades that only Xiang Baitian shouldve been in.

But the most surprised person was probably Jia Yunfeng. He was sure that Xiang Batian wasnt armed and sure that all he hit his targets with his slashes. However, Shang Baitian didnt even have a scratch on him.

Xiang Baitian managed to completely fend off Jia Yunfengs blade that wasnt reinforced with his true qi essence.

“You! Were you just putting an act before!”

Xiang Batians voice was muffled by the sound of metal clashing, and also very irritating to the ear: “If I dont give you a chance to show off, his highness and his majesty would suspect me.”

Jia Yunfeng was mistaken. He was completely wrong. Xiang Baitian wasnt brash or a lacking brute martial artist like he thought. But it was too late now.

Amidst the noise, Xiang Batian chopped Jia Yunfeng on his chest, one hand after the other. The hundred birds worshipping the phoenix came undone in that moment and flashes of light became reduce to a single blade.

Jia Yunfeng flew through the air and landed on the ground. The two chops were imbued with a fair amount of cold energy. Since Jia Yunfeng couldnt mould energy, he had no means of withstanding it and was left unable to budge.

Xiang Batian slowly walked up to Jia Yunfengs side. He didnt do anything. He just looked towards the orange prince in the audience area.

The orange prince sitting in the spectator area didnt show any expression. He raised his cup of tea and silently made a hand gesture to Xiang Batian. Others wouldnt understand his gesture, but the reaction from Xiang Batian and Jia Yunfeng was evidence that the two of them knew very well what it meant.

The corner of Xiang Baitians mouth curled up into a hideous smile while Jia Yunfengs eyes showed his unimaginable surprise, anger and… regret.

Xiang Batian laughed. He retreated three steps, but before that, he kicked Jia Yunfeng before that by kicking the air to smash into Jia Yunfeng.

Tang Ye watching below frowned and asked: “Big bro, why did he do that”

What Tang didnt understand was why Xiang Batian chose that move, not his internal strength level. Based on Xiang Batians display, his style emphasises on external components, fighting strength with strength and not launching attacks through the air. The two kicks he gave him were much less effective than kicking him close up or palm striking him.

Ming Feizhen stroked his chin and in a very bored tone, bluntly replied: “He must be trying to get rid of him for good.”

Before Tang could digest it, Jia Yunfeng who was lying on the ring suddenly sprang up like a stake. It looked like he sprang up through his own sheer willpower making the audience go crazy with praise. They praised him for his profound strength and how he still had the energy to counterattack.

But Jia Yunfeng himself knew best that he wasnt himself right now.

Xiang Batians kicks werent intended to take his life. The first kick was to cover Jia Yunfengs body with his energy causing his body to become erect and unable to budge in a short-span of time. The second kick was to spring Jia Yunfeng up. However, just looking at it, it looked like Jia Yunfeng launched a sudden surprise attack and Xiang Batian was forced to step back to evade.

The emperor clearly stated that they werent allowed to kill their opponent, and hence Xiang Batians need to fake a scenario.

Xiang Batian reacted “scared” because Jia Yunfeng suddenly sprang up. He wore an “angry” look and shouted: “You scheming bastard. How dare you sneak-attack me.” He double punched a soft spot on Jia Yunfengs body. A smack sound like a punching bag came from his body.

Jia Yunfeng has a proud personality. He took the strikes without making a peep. That was what Xiang Batian was after as well. Finally, Xiang Batian punched him on his chest. Jia Yunfeng couldnt stand anymore and spat a mouthful of blood.

After he spat a mouthful of blood, he groaned out ould unlike how he was silent before. That was very unlike him. Tang Ye soon realised the reason why he groaned in pain.

Jia Yunfengs left hand had been broken in many places without realising.

When Xiang Batian punched him on his chest with his left fist, he sneakily used qinna to break his left hand.

A swordsmans hands are his most important assets. Jia Yunfengs left fingers were broken in many places. Even if he had a skilled doctor to heal him and he could recover his martial arts, his swordplay would inevitably be much less powerful than what it was. If treatment goes awry, he will never be able to wield a sword again.

Hua Shan sect focuses on mainly on swordplay, so their leader must be skilled with a sword.

Hua Shan sect has been established in the martial world for centuries. Jia Yunfeng isnt the only outstanding disciple. Even if their leader was to lose his sword skills, the elders would be able to take his place. After today, Hua Shan sect will still be Hua Shan sect, but Jia Yunfeng will never be Jia Yunfeng again. This event has unquestionably destroyed Jia Yunfengs life.

Xiang Batian chuckled coldly when Jia Yunfeng cried out painfully. Before Eunuch Nan declared him the victor, he booted Jia Yunfeng out. Jia Yunfeng landed with a loud thud outside the ring.

With a neutral expression, Eunuch Nan declared: “Victor, Xiang Batian!”

Tang Ye looked at Xiang Batian who was laughing happily and bluntly said: “That punk is mine.”

If Tang Ye beats Long Zaitian, Tang Ye will face Xiang Batian next.

“Hes all yours.” Ming Feizhens gaze naturally found its way to the orange prince. He then looked at Long Zaitian and the Qilin Gaurds. He sighed: “Man, were going to be busy today.”
