Inside the nine arenas, a resounding hum suddenly echoed.
As the light condensed to its peak, nine figures materialized.
However, when Li Qingyao, Yu Hao, and the others laid their eyes on the figures that emerged before them, they were left utterly stunned.
There was a simple reason for their shock.
On each arena, the spiritual entity that took shape before every person was none other than themselves.
At that moment, Ye Wushuang, clad in a white robe, clenched his fists.
Before him stood another Ye Wushuang, also in white, gazing at him with a calm expression.
“We… are fighting against ourselves?”
Tian Yuanbing asked in disbelief, “Tianlinzi, what is the meaning of this?”
Tianlinzi smiled faintly and replied, “This is to test what you’ve learned over the past three days!”
“Before we begin, I must clarify that the ‘you’ standing before you has mastered the spiritual arts you’ve studied. When engaging with these spiritual entities, remember that you can only use the spiritual arts learned in these three days. Using any other ones will cost you your life.”
Upon hearing Tianlinzi’s words, all nine present were taken aback.
They had to defeat another version of themselves, and they could only employ the spiritual arts acquired in the past three days!
What exactly was Tianlinzi testing?
Yu Hao, with a cold face, snapped, “You might as well just kill us directly. How can we possibly defeat another ‘us’ when we can only use the spiritual arts learned in three days?”
What could one possibly master in just three days?
Tianlinzi remained unruffled and said, “Don’t worry. The ‘you’ before you can only use the spiritual arts you’ve chosen too!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Senior, are you testing our learning abilities?”
The spiritual arts learned in three days now had to be used in a battle against an opponent of equal strength. Clearly, this was to assess how well they had grasped them.
Tianlinzi gave Ye Wushuang a meaningful look and then said, “I hope all of you can survive.”
His figure vanished once again.
On the nine arenas, neither the nine people nor the nine spiritual entities made a move.
“Damn it!”
Shang Tianqing growled, “This Tianlinzi never intended for us to get out alive from the very beginning!”
“What should we do now?”
“What else can we do? Do you think you can escape? We have no choice but to fight!”
Everyone was in a foul mood.
At this moment, Ye Wushuang had no time to pay attention to them. He looked at Mu Zili and Ji Ou seriously and said, “Senior Brother Mu, Senior Brother Ji, just use what we’ve learned in the past three days. Remember, we must abide by the rules!”
Mu Zili and Ji Ou nodded in agreement.
Finally, Tian Yuanbing couldn’t hold back and made the first move.
He clenched his palm, and the aura within his body surged.
Tian Yuanbing had chosen a palm technique.
Now, he executed the palm technique with incredible speed. With a flash of his figure, he charged towards the spiritual entity.
Almost simultaneously, the spiritual entity before him also moved, striking out with a palm.
Boom…
A deep rumble erupted.
The two looked identical and used the same spiritual art, but when their palms collided, the real Tian Yuanbing turned pale, stumbled backward, and felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His inner spiritual energy seemed on the verge of dissipating.
The others’ faces turned grim at the sight.
The spiritual Tian Yuanbing then launched another attack…
At the same time, the spiritual entities on the other eight arenas also sprang into action.
Fierce battles erupted on all nine arenas.
But soon, a shrill scream pierced the air.
Bang!!!
On one arena, a deafening explosion sounded.
A figure was sent flying backward, blasted to pieces by a punch from the spiritual entity, with chunks of flesh scattered across the arena’s barrier of light.
This sent a chill down everyone’s spine.
“Tian Yuanbing is dead!”
Li Yanran of the Li Clan furrowed her delicate brows, her face turning ashen.
Despite the overwhelming fear, the battles raged on.
“To hell with it!”
Suddenly, Li Baifeng let out a fierce roar, unleashing the power of all methods within him and using the spiritual art he was most proficient in.
“Die!”
He unleashed his full strength and threw a punch at the spiritual entity before him.
Bang!!!
Another explosion rang out. The spiritual entity couldn’t withstand the full force of Li Baifeng’s attack.
“Hmph!” Li Baifeng snorted, “Expecting me to fight with only the spiritual arts I learned in three days? I might as well be dead!”
As if to grant his wish, the moment the spiritual entity shattered, beams of sword light coalesced from the barrier of light surrounding Li Baifeng’s arena.
Tens of thousands of sword qi lunged at Li Baifeng in an instant. Even if he had three heads and six arms, he wouldn’t have been able to fend them off.
A series of deafening booms echoed continuously.
In the end, all that remained on the arena was a pool of blood, and Li Baifeng’s body was nowhere to be seen.
“Rules are rules, and they cannot be broken!” Tianlinzi’s voice resounded once more.
Li Qingyao, Li Yanran, Yu Hao, Shang Tianqing, Ye Wushuang, Mu Zili, and Ji Ou were still locked in combat.
At this moment, Ye Wushuang took a deep breath. His Tianyan Sword materialized, and the profound artistic conception of swordsmanship coalesced.
“Attack!”
With a silent shout in his heart, sword light flashed. Ye Wushuang transformed the seven moves of the Seven Stars Inviting the Moon Sword Technique and unleashed an eighth move in an instant.
At the same time, the spiritual entity before him gripped a sword and also executed the Seven Stars Inviting the Moon Sword Technique. However, it couldn’t conjure up the eighth move. The outcome was, as one could imagine!
