Looking at the stupefied expressions around him, Fang Qi shrugged and said, “Surprised?”
[Hahahaha! Surprised?]
[Old Song! You are awesome!]
The Lingyun Academy disciples in the internet cafe flooded the screen with their comments.
Gulping down a mouthful of Haagen-Dazs, An Huwei said, “Sometimes, it’s fun to watch their astonished faces.”
Nalan Hongwu stroked his beard and said, “This kid’s sword control technique is okay.”
Jiang Xiaoyue had tears on her face. “How come they all know it!”
Xiao Yulv also had tears on his face. “Sir! I want to learn it too… Please give me a second chance!”
Dong Qingli had felt bored, but she exclaimed when she saw this sight, “How come someone has mastered this technique so soon?!”
It was fine to see Fang Qi use it, but Dong Qingli felt envious when she saw someone else mastering it as well.
“When they were practicing the sword control technique, we were trying to suppress this small shop,” Zhang Wanyu whispered to her, feeling like crying.
One attack! It was truly one attack!
Before Huangpu Jin could fully unleash his combat technique, his shoulder was pierced by his opponent’s sword, and he dropped his sword!
How was this attack launched?! How come the sword is flying by itself?! There is such a miraculous sword technique in the world?! Is he a cultivator or a warrior?
All these questions filled most of the people’s heads.
Only a few people had some idea about what was going on.
“Old Xu!” On the central viewing platform, the old man with the surname Yu said angrily, “Are you trying to cheat us by planting cultivators among your disciples?!”
Song Qingfeng saw a blur and then found Vice Academy Master Xu standing before him, saying, “Kid, give me your hand!”
After all, he couldn’t take the responsibility of cheating. Cultivators had an obvious advantage over warriors of the same realm earlier on!
However, he had obviously felt that warrior qi was used a moment ago.
To make sure, he checked again.
Then, he laughed and said, “Old Yu! Old Ghost Jiang! This kid only has warrior qi in his body and no trace of spiritual energy! If you don’t believe me, you can come and check it yourself!”
“Only warrior qi and no spiritual energy?!” The other two vice academy masters of the other two academies immediately leaped up and landed in front of Song Qingfeng.
Sure enough, they found only warrior qi and no trace of spiritual energy.
“If there’s no problem, please come back and let the national examination continue!” At this moment, the Emperor chimed in.
Vice Academy Master Yu and Vice Academy Master Jiang found no problems and had to return to their seats with dark faces.
Seeing the situation beginning to turn, Vice Academy Master Xu of Lingyun laughed, “Thank you for your reminders, you two! The situation is indeed turning better!”
The other two Vice Academy Masters’ faces turned as dark as coal!
This sword technique seemed to have separated warrior qi from his body. At this moment, the Emperor who was sitting on the central viewing platform furrowed his brows. With his cultivation strength, he had seen the special feature of this technique. I wonder who created this technique. It’s indeed special…
Song Qingfeng just controlled the sword and sent it forward rapidly, that didn’t show the real power of the sword control technique. The Emperor was surprised at the uniqueness of the sword control technique but wasn’t astonished.
Is it a new combat technique of the Song Family? I’ll ask him after the combat test…Despite his curiosity, the Emperor couldn’t bring a disciple up and ask him questions with so many people watching.
He would get his answers after the national examination!
At this moment, the Royal Princess, the Second Prince, and the old man sitting next to Mu Donglai began to understand what Fang Qi meant by ‘a climax is coming’!
This was indeed a climax!
The No. 6 Disciple on the Huang List of Lingyun Academy had defeated the No. 1 Disciple on the Huang List of Shengjing Academy. Also, the former even used a wondrous sword technique!
He had been suspected to be a cultivator, but there wasn’t a trace of spiritual energy in him!
“Mr. Fang?” The Second Prince looked suspicious, wondering why this young man seemed to know everything beforehand.
The Royal Princess also glanced at Fang Qi suspiciously. Does he have something to do with all that?
Right now, the other people around Fang Qi also looked at him with thoughtful expressions.
– Meanwhile in Shengjing Academy –
“The sword control technique again?” With the spear in her hand, Xiao Lengyu sat there in bafflement.
She remembered that young man who had left them in the dust with the sword control technique yesterday outside Jingshi!
Now, she saw the sword control technique again!
“Don’t panic!” A golden-robed young man walked up. “It is just a small victory amongst the Huang House. The No. 1 Place of the other three houses are ours!”
“We only need to take the points from the other three houses of theirs. A little Huang House has no impact on the whole situation!”
“Senior Brother Ji is right!”
…
– Meanwhile in the Lingyun Academy –
Qin Bing’s favorite disciples had turned from astonishment to fright!
A disciple who had just entered the academy and had been branded with a ‘bad disciple’ had just defeated Huangpu Jin with one attack?!
“I still have opportunities to challenge them and win back the points!” Qin Jiang looked gloomy. Ji Yang was powerful, but he couldn’t challenge the same participant again, so Qin Jiang wouldn’t lose points to him again.
Some time later, people like Ji Yang, Huangpu Jin, and Qin Jiang used up their challenge opportunities and had to defend their points now.
“It doesn’t look good for Lingyun Academy…” The Royal Princess shook her head. “Xiyi Academy and Shengjing Academy’s points are growing steadily. Lingyun Academy’s points are also growing, but it can’t catch up with the other two with its weaker strength.”
“Under normal circumstances, that’s true,” Fang Qi said with a smile, “But maybe these guys with large amounts of points are just point pigs waiting to be butchered.”
“Point pigs?” The Royal Princess smirked at his words. “Xiao Lengyu and Ji Yang are both one realm above the average realm of their houses. Who can butcher them?”
However, the moment that she said the words, an announcement came.
“Nalan Mingxue, the No. 1 Disciple of the Huang List of Lingyun Academy, challenges Xiao Lengyu, the No. 1 disciple of the Xuan List of Shengjing Academy!”
The Royal Princess’s face twitched. “What?!”
Fang Qi touched his forehead and said, “I’ll pay condolence to passerby girl for three seconds! You are targeted because you have too many points!”
At this moment, the internet cafe was filled with laughter.
“Hahahaha! Passerby girl, you’re too fat not to be butchered!”
“Superb! Challenging the No. 1 of a higher house!”
“Awesome! She’s the second most awesome person after the shop owner in the internet cafe!”
Fang Qi said, “We are all rooting for Nalan Mingxue this time!”
The Royal Princess, “!!??”
Everyone in the stadium, “!!??”
They were stupefied again!
