Chapter 574: Battle with Chu Feng

Xiao Fan said coldly, not waiting for Yuan Jingtian to speak, and directly slashed out with his sword.

A terrifying pitch-black sword Qi slashed directly towards Yuan Jingtian!

"What!"

Yuan Jingtian was shocked; he hadn't expected Xiao Fan to strike so suddenly!

He immediately struck out to defend with all his might, shouting at the same time: "I concede!"

The pitch-black sword Qi engulfed Yuan Jingtian.

"Boom!"

A terrifying force exploded, shaking Yuan Jingtian until he spat out blood.

He was already severely injured, having previously burned his Essence Blood, and now, having endured a strike of Sword Qi from Xiao Fan, who was now in the Yuanhun Realm, his injuries were compounded.

At this moment, Yuan Jingtian was in a pathetic state, and even his Primordial Spirit had been affected.

"Puff…"

After Yuan Jingtian fell to the ground, he coughed up blood continuously, creating a deep pit several zhang wide.

Xiao Fan did not continue his attack, looking coldly at Yuan Jingtian; this person had attacked him while he was in the middle of his Breakthrough, and this grudge had to be settled!

City Lord Ming Long's expression changed; clearly, he hadn't expected Xiao Fan to strike suddenly either.

However, since Xiao Fan had stopped, he couldn't really say anything.

He could only blame Yuan Jingtian for being too slow to speak.

"Yuan Jingtian concedes, Xiao Fan wins," said City Lord Ming Long.

By this time, the Arena area was gone, and anywhere could be considered the battlefield.

Yuan Jingtian struggled to stand up, looking wretched; that strike from Xiao Fan just now had thoroughly damaged his Foundation, and he wouldn't be able to recover for several years.

He looked at Xiao Fan with eyes full of resentment and hatred, wanting to say a few harsh words, but after thinking about it, he swallowed them back.

The current Xiao Fan was too strong; he couldn't afford to provoke him, and staying here would only be asking for trouble.

"This guy… is so much stronger than before!"

"One sword strike, now Yuan Jingtian can't even withstand one strike from Xiao Fan!"

"Whoever bet on Xiao Fan to win at the gambling den is going to get rich this time!"

"…"

The heated discussion continued. Although Xiao Fan's Undergoing Tribulation just now was shocking, they were too far away, and with the Formation blocking them, they didn't feel it as intensely as City Lord Ming Long and the others.

But now that Xiao Fan had ascended to the Yuanhun Realm and defeated Yuan Jingtian with a single strike, it was enough to prove everything.

In fact, Xiao Fan hadn't used his full strength, as his own spiritual power hadn't recovered.

Otherwise, Yuan Jingtian might have been killed by that one strike from Xiao Fan just now!

With Xiao Fan defeating Yuan Jingtian, as long as he defeated Chu Feng, he would be the champion of this competition between the sixty-four cities!

Thinking of this, City Lord Du Ling, who had been pale and severely injured, immediately smiled!

If Xiao Fan took first place, he would also gain huge benefits!

"Next match, Xiao Fan versus Chu Feng," City Lord Ming Long announced.

The next moment, Chu Feng appeared in the Arena, locking eyes with Xiao Fan.

City Lord Ming Long hesitated for a moment before asking: "Chu Feng, do you still wish to fight?"

He was genuinely concerned for Chu Feng; after all, the latter only had the strength of the third level of the Yuanhun Realm. Even if he was a decent Prodigy Genius, the gap between him and the current Xiao Fan was too great.

Chu Feng wouldn't even be a match for Yuan Jingtian, let alone the current Xiao Fan.

City Lord Ming Long was completely acting in Chu Feng's best interest.

Chu Feng let out a breath and looked at Xiao Fan, his eyes surging with Battle Intent.

"I want to fight!"

Xiao Fan was slightly surprised; he hadn't expected that this Chu Feng still intended to fight him?

Even when he was at the Great Perfection of the Xuandan Realm, Chu Feng was no match for him, and now that he had reached the Yuanhun Realm, the other party still wanted to fight.

Xiao Fan did not look down on him; on the contrary, he felt some admiration. Furthermore, in Chu Feng's eyes, he seemed to see himself from just a moment ago, facing the Heavenly Tribulation.

Xiao Fan nodded slightly at Chu Feng, and his right hand swung the black sword through the air.

A crack hundreds of zhang long shattered across the ground.

This was the result of Xiao Fan swinging his sword casually and inadvertently; it was not intentional.

"Come."

Chu Feng nodded, let out a roar, and his killing intent surged. A Vajra Ring appeared in his right hand, flashing with white light as he attacked Xiao Fan.

"A Vajra Ring?" Xiao Fan was stunned; this was the first time he had encountered an opponent using this kind of Magical Artifact.

This Vajra Ring was circular and could expand or shrink; when Chu Feng first took it out, it was the size of a palm, but it had now grown to several zhang in length.

Xiao Fan waved his black sword, and a terrifying Sword Qi slashed towards Chu Feng.

Chu Feng used the Vajra Ring to defend, his figure violently retreating a few steps. His cultivation was only at the third level of the Yuanhun Realm, but at this moment, he had actually managed to forcibly withstand this Sword Qi from Xiao Fan.

"Ah!!"

Chu Feng roared, and his cultivation climbed steadily, actually reaching the ninth level of the Yuanhun Realm!

"Very strong," Xiao Fan nodded, acknowledging Chu Feng's talent.

Moreover, the other party was about the same age as him, and with this talent for challenging those of higher levels, he would surely become famous throughout Yihuang Province in the future.

"Fight!" Chu Feng, holding the Vajra Ring, charged back into the fray.

This time, Xiao Fan did not release Sword Qi, but instead engaged Chu Feng in close-quarters combat.

Chu Feng's footwork was quite good, but compared to the current Xiao Fan, it was still a significant step behind.

Moreover, there was a world of difference between their strengths; every time Xiao Fan attacked, Chu Feng struggled immensely to defend!

And this was still while Xiao Fan's spiritual power had not yet recovered, and he had just gone through a Heavenly Tribulation.

Furthermore, Xiao Fan was not using his full strength now; he didn't know why, but he did not want to hurt Chu Feng.

It seemed he saw a little bit of his own shadow in the other person.

"Fight!"

Chu Feng roared; he had an inexplicable obsession with battle, and he attacked Xiao Fan with everything he had.

"This Chu Feng is clearly no match for Xiao Fan… yet he's fighting so hard!"

"This Chu Feng is a real man."

"Which city is this kid from?"

"…"
