I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

638  Chapter 340: The Challenge of the Azure Sea's Genius, Xie Lingfeng's Breakthrough_2

The other party had come to challenge Xu Yan, but now they needed to defeat him to be accepted for the challenge.

This left him very upset.

He even regretted attacking in the first place.

Now everyone knew that he, the Great Commander, was no match for Xu Yan!

"Great Commander, please teach me!"

Li Shao held a spear in his hand and spoke in a deep voice.

The Great Commander glowered at Li Shao. "I concede. Now you can challenge Xu Yan."

But to his surprise, Li Shao shook his head. "I, Li Shao, will not engage in such sham. For the fight of the chosen ones, let's battle with honor. If I cannot defeat the Great Commander, it proves that I'm not qualified to challenge Xu Yan.

"Great Commander, have some respect for me!"

Staring at Li Shao with his short, thick hair and stubbly beard, the Great Commander almost felt like spitting blood. Could you not be so serious?!

Damn it!

He glared at Haibo'er. "I concede. Go and challenge Xu Yan."

"You're talking nonsense. I, Haibo'er, aspire to be the king of the Sea Spirit Tribe and won't play any games. You, Great Commander, might be shameless, but I, Haibo'er, have a reputation to uphold!"

Damn it!

The Great Commander's face darkened even more.

Haibo'er was the darling of the Sea Spirit Tribe. Even if she was disrespectful, there was nothing he could do about it. She was well-known throughout the Azure Sea for her well-established temper.

He took a deep breath and said, "In this case, you guys may strike."

Haibo'er held a bright blue trident in her hand. This was one of the Sea Spirit Tribe's divine artifacts, the Sea-Splitting Trident. Looking at the Great Commander, her pretty face filled with anger. "Great Commander, who are you looking down on? Are you qualified to have me and Li Shao join forces?"

Li Shao nodded in agreement.

The Great Commander was so furious he felt like his nose was going crooked. He raised his saber and said with a dark face, "Who will strike first?"

Li Shao glanced at Haibo'er, "I'll go first. Once I've defeated him, you can make your move. We will have a higher chance of winning."

"You're talking nonsense. I, Haibo'er, never take advantage of others."

However, a disagreement over who should make the first move led to a fight between Li Shao and Haibo'er.

The Great Commander was so furious he almost spat blood. Do these people still recognize him as the Great Commander?

It seemed that ever since Xu Yan came, the authority of his position as the Great Commander had been dwindling.

...

Xie Lingfeng had broken through to the Divine Origin Realm. Xu Yan didn't wait for the challenges from Li Shao and Haibo'er, nor did he pay attention to these two. He figured they probably hadn't defeated the Great Commander.

If that's the case, they were not qualified to challenge him.

When Xie Lingfeng broke through, he also underwent a complete transformation. The basis of his martial arts had truly and thoroughly converted into Dahua martial foundation, and he has also acquired a spirit bone.

 Though Xie Lingfeng, at the beginning of the Divine Origin Realm, still paled in comparison to Xu Yan, he had no problem defeating the top warriors who were still refining their spirituality.

Even if the opponent was one who had already condensed some Heavenly Earth Lingji, he could still put up a fight.

His current strength was not far off from Xie Tianheng's.

But the intricacies of the Divine Origin Realm didn't just stop there, Xie Lingfeng's strength would get stronger and stronger. He could once again trample his past adversaries under his feet.

With the improvement of sword dao comprehension, once Xie Lingfeng breaks through the Complete realm of the Divine Origin Realm, his strength would not lose to City Lord Yuntian, maybe even stronger.

No matter what, Xie Lingfeng was also a chosen one, his strength cannot be compared with ordinary martial artists.

Xu Yan started to impart the Divine Skill Realm martial art technique to Xie Lingfeng. This required some detailed explanation to help Xie Lingfeng not only memorize the cultivation technique but also understand it.

After imparting the Divine Skill Realm martial arts technique, Xu Yan gave Xie Lingfeng the Physiognomy realm cultivation method, as for the Void-breaking Martial Way, he had not figured it out himself, thus he could not impart it.

Moreover, for Xie Lingfeng, the Physiognomy realm is quite remote, let along the Divine Skill Realm.

It should be enough for his cultivation for a long time.

There's no rush to pass on the Void-breaking cultivation method in the future.

After imparting the cultivation techniques to Xie Lingfeng, providing guidance on sword dao and leaving behind some elixirs, this trip to Yuntian Azure Sea City has come to an end.

Next, Xu Yan was going to explore Azure Sea and look for the divine objects of the Azure Sea.

Fu Yun gave Xu Yan a sea map of Azure Sea, which included the dangerous areas, the treasure lands, and the sea areas where divine objects might appear in the Azure Sea.

It was much more detailed than what Cai Ling'er had introduced.

Just as Xu Yan was about to leave to explore the Azure Sea and search for divine objects, Li Shao and Haibo'er came to challenge him.

Both of them had defeated the Great Commander separately.

That surprised Xu Yan and after enquiring further he found out that the fight between Li Shao and Haibo'er had started because of their disagreement over who would defeat the Great Commander first. As a result, they both got injured.

They could only rest for a few days before they defeated the Great Commander separately and came to challenge him.

"Let me see for myself, the capabilities of the chosen ones of Azure Sea."

Xu Yan smiled.

The battleground was chosen to be atop the sea outside the walls of Yuntian Azure Sea City. As soon as the news spread, Yuntian Azure Sea City was abuzz with excitement.

Countless martial artists gathered in the decisive sea area, awaiting the arrival of the epic battle between the prodigies.

On one side was the most formidable prodigy of the Azure Sea, while on the other side was the Sword God Xu Yan from the Eighteen States, both were renowned figures.

Xu Yan stood proudly on the surface of the sea, gazing towards two opponents.

Li Shao appeared to be a roguish youth, unkempt, with short, scruffy hair and a short beard, holding a spear in his hand.

Haibo'er was pretty-faced, slightly petite in build, but possessed an impressive bust. She held a trident in her hand.

"Both of you come at me together, I'm in a hurry!"

Xu Yan, sword in hand, suggested in a casual tone.

"Xu Yan, your arrogance is indeed impressive. But I, Li Shao, disdain for ganging up. Triumph is won fair and square, defeat is accepted the same way. I'm not one of the shameless members of those Spirit Sects in the Eighteen States."

Li Shao advanced, spear in hand, across the waves; his aura surged with each step forward.

Boom!

The waves surged, mirroring the shape of a giant spear.

Li Shao's body emitted an ethereal glow, merging with the power of the Heaven and Earth Laws.

"So that's a Spiritual Body."

Xu Yan sighed. A spiritual body has affinity with Spiritual Energy and Heavenly Earth Lingji. It resonates better with the power of Heaven and Earth Laws, making it easier to gather and merge with it.

Having refined three forms of Heaven and Earth Law's energy, this was why Li Shao was more powerful than the Great Commander.

Xu Yan swung his sword, transforming the Azure Sea into flowing rivers and mountains. The waves became countless swords, causing a surge of swords within an instant.

"Kill!"

Li Shao's expression focused. Swinging his long spear, he repelled the wave-formed swords and advanced, indestructible. It seemed as if one man and his spear were going to shatter the mountain and the river, and demolish the myriad of swords!

Boom!

Xu Yan lifted his hand, and the waves around him surged, morphing into giant swords. In an instant, the swords began to circle around, displaying the might of the sword array.

In a mere moment, Li Shao was trapped within the sword array. He had nowhere to escape.

"Aren't you going to join in?"

Xu Yan eyed Haibo'er.

"Hmph, I'll deal with you later!"

Haibo'er's face turned serious, as she pointed her trident, causing the sea to part. Immediately afterward, the strength of terrifying tidal waves erupted from the Azure Sea.

Covered by the Azure Sea and masked by its mighty power, Haibo'er initiated her attack against Xu Yan.

12:33

The Sea Spirit Tribe ruled the sea, and the Azure Sea was their home field.

Covered by the Azure Sea and masked by its mighty power, Haibo'er initiated her attack against Xu Yan.

Xu Yan chuckled softly, stepping on the sea. With a tremendous sound, a golden giant dragon emerged from the monstrous waves. In an instant, Haibo'er was forced out of the Azure Sea.

Moreover, she lost the aid of the Azure Sea's might.

It seemed as if this stretch of sea had found a new master!

All the spectators were astonished. What kind of ability was this, summoning a real dragon?

A True Dragon's resemblance, possessing some of the abilities of a true dragon such as controlling the sea. How could the Sea Spirit Tribe compare with a true dragon?

The moment the golden giant dragon appeared, the outcome of this battle was already determined.

"The victor is clear."

Fu Tianhai said with a sigh.

Standing beside him was the chieftain of the Sea Spirit Tribe, his face a picture of helplessness. He let out a regretful sigh, "Xu Yan's cultivation technique is indeed divine. Is he mimicking the might of a True Dragon?"

"With the prodigy Xu Yan holding the title, no one can challenge him."

Fu Tianhai stated with a smile.

"Even those from the Transcendent Spirit Sect of the Eighteen States can't challenge him?"

The chieftain of the Sea Spirit Tribe questioned.

"Do you think Li Shao and Haibo'er would lose to them?"

Fu Tianhai responded with a smile.

What were the tasks of the Transcendent Spirit Sect? How could he, as the City Lord, not have knowledge about it?

Yuntian Azure Sea City too, was part of the Transcendent Spirit Sect's jurisdiction.

The chieftain of the Sea Spirit Tribe nodded and changed the topic, "Will Azure Sea participate in the Prodigy's Battle?"

"Let the young ones decide whether or not they want to participate. The Divine Bridge is about to open and the opportunities have come again. We should ascend the Divine Bridge and proceed to the far shore of the Divine Bridge."

Fu Tianhai stated with a laugh.

The chieftain of the Sea Spirit Tribe nodded and turned his gaze back to the battlefield.
