Supreme Emperor of Swords-Novel

Chapter 55 Exceedingly Beautiful Fade-like Palm Technique

By good luck, Cheng Fei had gotten half a kilogram of Taiyi Stardust after inadvertently annihilated a demon nest during his experience in the desert a while ago, and some inner core disciples had known that and were casting greedy eyes on it.

Yin Yifei smiled, opening his hand out. A pair of strangely shaped sickle appeared, rotating and flickering.

The sickle was about one and a half meter long. The handle was only forty centimeters and was covered with dark red patterns, and the knife edge was sharp. The blood grooves on both sides were extremely clever. The ridge was about two fingers wide, and the whole body was dark red and was made of black iron. It was in the shape of a flying dragon and weighed at least a hundred pounds. It could cut off the hair that fell on it. Although it was not a magical weapon, it was definitely a sharp weapon.

As soon as the sickle appeared, there was a bit of hotness in the air.

“Good knife!” Cheng Fei glanced at the chopper and said with a smile, “This knife must be made by an Inscription Master. Though it was far from a black weapon, it is much better than a normal one. However...” Cheng Fei slowly shook his head and continued, “What I am practicing is a kind of sword technique. Your chopper is good, but I can’t use it. What’s more, I’m afraid such a knife is not good enough to exchange half a kilogram Taiyi Stardust.”

“With my Void Boundary Stone. What do you think?” Lu Qi joined the conversation.

As he opened his hand, a piece of beautiful thumb-sized light stone appeared, sparkling with silvery light.

Cheng Fei laughed, and then said, “Void Boundary Stone is a toy for children. junior brother Lu, shame on you! Well, since you’re too poor to use some good stuff, I have to lower my requirement. I’ve decided to gamble 250 kilograms Taiyi Stardust!”

“You...” Lu Qi was enraged by his scorn.

Yin Yifei waved his hand to stop Lu Qi and nodded, saying, “Well, 250 kilograms Taiyi Stardust. Deal!”

Just as he finished his words, someone nearby burst into laughter.

A man said loudly, “Haha, now that you’re so interested in gambling, let me be a witness, what do you say?” He appeared at their side, wearing a cyan robe.

The three people were surprised and got up at once. As they recognized him, they saluted and said, “Senior brother Leng!”

The man’s name was Leng Yixuan, who was in a high position among the third generation disciples. With his powerful and unpredictable strength, he allegedly ranked among the top five disciples of the third generation. Leng Yixuan was a man like the wind with a graceful and uncatchable bearing.

The other elders on the viewing platform hurriedly saluted to the disciple who had real authority.

“You’re too kind. I just happened to pass by.” Leng Yixuan took the main seat of the viewing platform. Cheng Fei, Yin Yifei and Lu Qi sat on both sides. Yin Yifei and Lu Qi did not look very good, because Leng Yixuan was actually Cheng Fei’s man.

The three men handed the sickle, the Void Boundary Stone, and the Taiyi Stardust over to Leng Yixuan as the pledges of their gambling.

“What is he doing here? Is he interested in someone among the nominal disciples in the five academies?” Yin Yifei was thinking with no expression.

For every group faction of the core disciples, the reserve forces were very important.

Since the beginning of the new disciple test, each of the core disciples’ factions would pay attention to those who had performed well in the entrance test, secretly training them and giving some help to draw them over to their side.

In Yin Yifei’s view, Leng Yixuan was here to observe the sluggers’ performances of his own faction.

Cheng Fei was very aware that Leng Yixuan must be here to see Ding Hao, the dark horse. Because of some reasons, only a few people, like Leng Yixuan, knew that Ding Hao was the man who Qi Qingshan, the old monster of the Sect, paid attention to.

...

The results of the top 13 groups were quickly announced.

The results of this time caused a sensation again, because Ren Xiaoyao, the glutton, once again had no opponent. Thus he directly promoted to the top seven.

He really had incredibly good luck. Everyone had known that the result was absolutely fair; otherwise, they would doubt the fat man was cheating.

“Wow, hahaha, I’ll fight with nobody! How lucky I am! I must reward myself with food and drink.”

Under the envy and jealous gaze of countless people, the fat man rushed toward the dining room.

“Good luck!”

“The Fatty is too strange.”

“The fatty advances to the top seven so easily, but next time, he won’t be so lucky again, will he?”

The disciples who watched the battle were discussing his luck. Even the top disciples of the 13 groups could not help but shake their heads.

In the world, there was indeed some supermen who were much luckier than others. They could always turn calamities into blessings and had big opportunities. Ren Xiaoyao obviously was the kind of Superman!

When they were discussing, the battles of the seven top disciples uncovered its mysterious veil.

Li Lan vs Chen Qidong, the sixth leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven.

Lyu Kuang vs Liang Feixue, the second leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven.

Wang Xiaoshi vs Li Muyun, the first leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven.

Lin Xin vs Chen Sheng, the martial mania and the third leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven.

Feng Xingjun, the fifth leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven, vs. He Feiyu, the seventh leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven. That was a battle inside the Honorable Alliance of Seven.

Ding Hao’s opponent was Sun Jiutian, the fourth leader of Honorable Alliance of Seven.

This time, the competitions would not start at the same time. In accordance with the rules of the competitions between the five academies of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, the competitions would start in order, ensuring that everyone could watch every game.

The first round was the battle between Li Lan and Chen Qidong.

Chen Qidong ranked sixth among the Honorable Alliance of Seven and had been very low-key.

He was slightly thin, like a scholar, with white skin. When he smiled, he was a little shy. In the previous games, he was known for his mastery of many sorts of Fighting Qi. In just two games, he had changed at least five kinds of magic skills.

...

It was at the 36th arena.

“Please.” Chen Qidong looked modest and courteous.

“Please.” Li Lan nodded slightly.

In the next moment, his feet were full of strength and the wind was overflowing from his body, and then he rushed over rapidly. At the same time, his white palms released lots of palm prints.

Exceedingly Beautiful Fade-like Palm Technique!

That was a top Human Class, Middle-Level palm technique!

If someone could reach the peak level of that palm technique, their palms would be as tough as a sharp weapon. In addition, when a man was using the power, his palm would have the color of a piece of beautiful jade, so it was named Exceedingly Beautiful Fade-like Palm Technique.

Unexpectedly, Li Lan had mastered that esoteric palm technique!

Moreover, as each of his palm shadows in the sky was just like a flying crystal-clear jade butterfly, with the wind like a giant hammer, it was obvious that his palm technique had already reached a high level.

Was this the real power of Li Lan?
