Yuwen Yao’s words gave people a strange feeling.

That is, let’s discuss nicely, friendship first, competition second.

Let’s not hurt our harmony, and each retain some strength, so as not to let the Cultivators in the next round benefit after the duel.

If it were an ordinary person, they might relax because of this inexplicable goodwill, or even truly retain their strength.

Unfortunately.

Song Yan, standing in front of her, was a Sword Cultivator.

At the same time, this was the first extremely dangerous opponent he had encountered today, so he naturally went all out.

His body surged with Sword Qi, ready to dodge or unleash Sleeve Green Snake to counter at any time, and the Flying Sword Unmoored Boat had already been summoned.

When dueling with such an opponent, as long as one can take one move from them, they can take the second, the third...

"Let’s begin."

Song Yan was fully focused, and Yuwen Yao’s Aura also changed.

Strands of azure Spiritual Qi were rapidly gathering in her hands.

"Junior Brother Song Yan, be ready."

"The first palm..."

She slowly raised her eyes.

"Azure Dragon’s Claw!"

Swoosh—

An azure jade stream of light flashed, and Yuwen Yao’s figure had disappeared, leaving only an afterimage.

His pupils contracted slightly, only to see a clean, white hand had torn through his protective spiritual clothing and was reaching for his face.

"So fast!"

Song Yan was astonished.

That hand was covered and surrounded by a surging and ferocious azure Spiritual Qi, like the sharp claws of some Demon Beast.

Yuwen Yao’s face wore a triumphant smile.

Song Yan secretly thought it was bad, the distance was too close for the Flying Sword to be used, and just as he was about to activate Lingyun Intent to dodge, the palm slammed down, grabbing the collar of his Dao robe.

Then a powerful force struck, and he felt the world spin!

"Ugh..."

Song Yan was actually thrown heavily to the ground by her.

Intense pain struck, but before he could react, he suddenly felt his vision go dark.

Above his head, a large azure handprint was rapidly descending.

"Boom—"

A huge explosion sound came from the central Sword Debate Platform, stirring up countless dust, obscuring most of the Sword Debate area.

The Azure Dragon Seal that Yuwen Yao cultivated was indeed very powerful.

Disorderly discussions came from all around.

"Ah..."

"This... Junior Brother Song Yan, did he just lose?"

"Senior Sister Yuwen Yao is truly formidable."

Everyone knew that Song Yan had a high probability of losing, but they didn’t expect it to be so decisive.

He was a Cultivator who could defeat Senior Brother Senior Brother Kong You head-on... Is the gap between Late Stage Qi Refining really that big?

There was a lot of discussion below the stage.

But Yuwen Yao on the stage did not relax; she inexplicably stared at the other end of the dust, her expression wary.

"..."

"Senior Sister Yuwen..."

Amidst the sky-filling dust, a pair of golden eyes slowly lit up.

"You still have two palms left." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Song Yan’s figure walked out from the dust.

Around the Sword Debate Platform, there was an uproar.

Song Yan looked down; the spot where the handprint had landed had very obvious indentations and shattered marks.

The Materials used to forge this Sword Debate Platform were extremely sturdy; if it were ordinary flagstones, this place would probably have been completely shattered.

Was the first palm alone so powerful?

It was simply unbelievable.

He felt a little incredulous in his heart, but now was not the time to speculate on others’ Cultivation methods.

"Good, Junior Brother Song is indeed no ordinary person."

Yuwen Yao was surprised in her heart, but did not show it on her face.

"Take another palm from me!"

Before Yuwen Yao finished speaking, her whole body glowed with a brilliant azure light.

She overlapped her palms, and azure spiritual light, accompanied by transparent water currents, rapidly condensed in front of her chest, with the illusory figure of an Azure Dragon, its scales and claws faintly visible.

Wandering Heaven!

With a sudden push of a single hand, two huge handprints, one left and one right, attacked rapidly.

Song Yan’s wide sleeves billowed, and azure Sword Qi completely condensed and surged out, surrounding the body of the Unmoored Boat.

His sword fingers merged, and he slashed horizontally with one sword.

Severing Tide.

That Sword Qi move from the Blessed Realm reappeared, but compared to that time, this Sword Qi was extremely condensed, even more so than before!

The Sword Qi, like splashed ink, was violently flung out by the Unmoored Boat!

It collided head-on with those two huge handprints.

"..."

In the spectator stands, Senior Brother Kong You had already finished his duel, and looking at this sword move, his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

Li Yi looked at the two on the stage even more excitedly, gripping his halberd tightly in his hand.

"I really want to spar with Junior Brother Song soon."

On the Sword Debate Platform, the surging Sword Qi instantly annihilated the handprints, but it was also completely exhausted itself, posing no threat to Yuwen Yao.

Azure Spiritual Qi and azure Sword Qi, together, dispersed like mist and vanished with the wind.

"There’s still one palm left."

Song Yan reminded her, but his apprehension and vigilance reached their peak.

The power of this second palm was a notch stronger than the first.

If the third palm was even more formidable, how should he counter it?

The surprise in Yuwen Yao’s eyes was hard to conceal: "He can actually take the second palm..."

She had seen this sword in the Ancient Vine Forest of the Blessed Realm that day, but facing it directly in person, the feeling was naturally different.

She suddenly opened the wine pot at her waist and took several big gulps, the liquor dripping down her chin.

Under her observation, Song Yan saw that her Spiritual Qi, which had originally shown some signs of decline, began to boil again.

"The last palm, if you can take it, I lose."

She was seen with azure Spiritual Qi surging around her body, rapidly rushing towards her palms.

Suddenly, she clapped her hands together.

In the eyes of the Cultivators watching, just from the starting posture, Senior Sister Yuwen Yao’s third palm did not seem as powerful as the previous two.

But Song Yan did not dare to be negligent.

Because at this moment, that Spiritual Qi had been condensed to the extreme.

"..."

At a certain moment, Yuwen Yao’s palm pushed out towards Song Yan in an unremarkable manner.

Kangye!

Boom—

Boundless azure Spiritual Qi surged out like an explosion.

Countless azure Spiritual Qi and water currents actually condensed into a huge Dragon head at the very front of this handprint.

In an instant, a Dragon roar suddenly rose from the arena.

Roar—

This palm strike almost covered the entire central Sword Debate Platform.

Song Yan held the Unmoored Boat in his hand, then the sword light flared, and he deeply embedded it into the Sword Debate Platform.

Beneath the Zhen Dao Sword Mansion, the Dao seed hummed softly.

All the Sword Qi poured out, protecting his body.

His golden eyes lifted, looking at the attacking giant Dragon, and he truly felt a sense of insignificance.

It opened its large mouth and suddenly swallowed Song Yan.

Roar—

The azure Spiritual Qi flow continuously tore apart the surrounding Sword Qi, and it was even becoming difficult to resist.

"If I’m still hesitant, I’m afraid I’ll truly lose..."

Song Yan slowly let out a breath.

The Dragon roar became clearer and clearer, as if a sharp claw was about to tear everything apart and eliminate him.

Buzz—

Just at this moment, a sword hum rose beneath the Dragon roar.

That hint of sharpness in his Dantian rapidly disintegrated at this moment.

A faint spiritual light, following Song Yan’s right hand, began to gather.

Soon, a hint of extremely condensed and solemn Sword Qi had gathered at Song Yan’s fingertips, without any Spiritual Qi fluctuations, just pure sharpness.

There was no time to pause.

The Sword Yuan suddenly broke through the air, illuminating golden cracks along the way, and even the air on the central Sect Sword Wipe made a sound like shattering glass.

In an instant.

The Sword Yuan pierced through the center of the Azure Dragon Spiritual Seal, grazed past Yuwen Yao’s ear, and disappeared into the distant sky.

The azure giant Dragon, like clouds pierced by a flying bird, rapidly collapsed and disintegrated.

All the Spiritual Qi also dissipated between heaven and earth.

"..."

The clouds dispersed, the wind stilled, and everyone was silent.
