CHAPTER 237: CHAPTER 180 GENIUS GIRL, LUO HONGYI (4500 WORDS)_3

Luo Hongyi snorted, "Don’t worry, I always know how to hold back!"

I trust you like hell! Guan Shanyue wanted to retort.

But Luo Hongyi had clearly made up her mind. No one could shake her determination.

From the crowd, a tall man carrying a large saber on his back slowly stood up and looked toward Luo Hongyi. "Your Realm is higher than ours. This kind of competition is unfair!"

The one who stepped forward was Xiang Kunlun, the Chief Disciple of the Sanqing Blade Sect, an expert at the Eighth Heaven of the Golden Core. Although he was somewhat inferior to the likes of Li Zuoyue, he was still one of the top ten True Disciples of Sanqing. His strength was quite impressive.

Luo Hongyi glanced at him and said indifferently, "I will naturally suppress my Realm. So, are you going to be the first challenger?"

Xiang Kunlun slowly took the large saber off his back, a fierce fighting intent flickering in his eyes like the gleam of a blade. "From the Sanqing Blade Sect, Xiang Kunlun. I request your instruction!"

CLANG!

Before his words had even settled, Xiang Kunlun’s figure disappeared from his spot. A saber light hundreds of feet long tore through the sea of clouds, carrying a wild ferocity as it rushed toward Luo Hongyi. With this strike, the ground in all directions was instantly covered in countless fine saber marks, as if even heaven and earth were about to be cleaved into pieces by this one saber strike.

Li Zuoyue narrowed his eyes. "Junior Brother Xiang’s Splitting Sky Saber has become even more masterful!"

Xiang Tiange nodded. "With that saber, he’s qualified to be in the top forty of the Golden Core Ranking!"

However, facing this furious attack, Luo Hongyi’s lips curled slightly, appearing utterly calm and composed.

WHOOSH!

Her red robe moved slightly as her figure turned into an afterimage and vanished. The sound of wind and thunder seemed to reverberate between heaven and earth.

"Thunder Sound Step!" Ji Zidian’s pupils shrank, her small face filled with shock.

This was a superior Daoist Magic of the Thunder Sect, not to be learned by anyone but a True Disciple. Even those disciples with exceptional talent often needed decades to master it. Yet Luo Hongyi, at such a young age, had managed to practice it to such a degree.

BOOM!

Luo Hongyi’s figure reappeared. With one hand behind her back, she extended a slender palm and precisely patted the blade of Xiang Kunlun’s saber.

VMMMM—

The blade trembled incessantly, as though struck by a colossal weight. Xiang Kunlun’s face changed drastically; he could barely hold on to his saber.

Xiang Tiange’s expression grew solemn. "Star Shatter Hand!"

This was the supreme technique of the Physical Sect, Star Shatter Hand. It placed extremely high demands on a Cultivator’s aptitude. Without undergoing tens of thousands of physical tempering sessions, it was impossible to achieve any level of success. But Luo Hongyi had clearly cultivated this technique to the realm of Great Accomplishment.

Judging by this technique alone, I couldn’t execute it any stronger than she can! Xiang Tiange thought to himself.

The next moment, Li Zuoyue let out a sharp hiss of breath.

He watched as Luo Hongyi effortlessly deflected Xiang Kunlun’s saber with one palm. Then, she brought her fingers together to form a sword, and a terrifying Sword Intent erupted from her shapely body. She herself seemed to transform into a sword, easily tearing through Xiang Kunlun’s saber light and closing in on him.

Her two fingers pressed against Xiang Kunlun’s throat.

The Sword Qi sliced his skin, and crimson beads of blood seeped out.

Xiang Kunlun stood petrified, not daring to move. Almost everyone was dumbfounded.

In less than a single breath! The Chief Disciple of the Blade Sect was defeated just like that!

Luo Hongyi had executed three different techniques from three different sects in such a short amount of time. And her mastery of all of them was profound, as if they were second nature.

This woman was terrifying.

Xiang Kunlun fell completely silent, dripping with cold sweat. He didn’t dare utter a single word.

I have a feeling this crazy woman really harbors killing intent, he thought. If she lost control by even the slightest margin, that Sword Qi would surge into my throat and instantly decapitate me, killing me on the spot.

Luo Hongyi snorted coldly, slowly retracting her fingers. Her haughty gaze swept over the others present. "Does anyone else want to try?"

"I will!"

Just then, a voice rang out.
