Chapter 338: Broken?

Translator: Transn  Editor: Transn

The people from Gale Island all held their breath and fixed their gazes on the fighting ring.

After Su Mo had come so far, they were obviously hoping that he could defeat the Ninth Princess and proceed to challenge Ao Wushuang. Even the First Elder was expecting that as well.

However, they sighed when they saw that Su Mo had failed to break through the Ninth Princess’ defense.

It was not Su Mo’s fault. After all, she was very powerful!

“It’s fine even if he can’t beat the Ninth Princess. He’s already guaranteed to get third place!”

The Second Elder said with a smile.

“Indeed!” Elder Wei nodded in response and said,

“He’s done extremely well already! This is a glory that Skymoon has never experienced!”

Meanwhile, the people from the Sky Yuan Sect and the Sky Rapier Sect were all stunned. They had never expected for Su Mo to be able to come this far.

But now that Su Mo had failed to break through the Ninth Princess’ defense, they were all relieved.

They hoped that Su Mo was not so powerful, otherwise, it would be bad news for their sects.

Yun Jiankong and Xie Tianjue, on the other hand, had long been disqualified. They did not even make it into the Top 100, losing their chance to enter the List of Top 100 Talents.

In the fighting ring—

“You can’t break through my Teal Lotus Shield!”

The Ninth Princess shouted softly at Su Mo after calming her tumultuous Qi Blood.

She was extremely confident in her Teal Lotus Shield. It was the ultimate skill from the Teal Lotus Poem that she had cultivated. Since the Teal Lotus Poem was a Lower Lv 6 martial arts skill, the defense of the Teal Lotus Shield was obviously unsurpassable.

“Is that so?” Su Mo replied with a gentle laugh and continued,

“What if I can break it?”

“That’s impossible!”

The Ninth Princess shook her head, full of self-confidence.

She might have believed that Ao Wushuang could break through her defense, but Su Mo’s chance of doing so was out of the question.

Su Mo glanced at the white veil over her face and said with a smile, “Let’s make a bet. If I can break your defense, you’ll have to remove your veil!”

Su Mo was curious about her appearance given her extraordinary talent. “Is she that ugly?

“Why would she wear a veil otherwise?”

Of course, Su Mo could not coerce her to do anything even if he could break through her defense. He was not serious about the bet since her appearance had nothing to do with him.

“This…!”

The Ninth Princess hesitated. She did not want to remove her veil.

However, thinking of the Teal Lotus Shield’s powerful defense, she nodded and said, “Alright, if you can break my defense, I’ll take off my veil!”

“Eh!”

Su Mo was startled to hear that she was actually willing to remove her veil.

But even if she had not taken up the bet, he would have done his best to defeat her regardless.

“In that case, let’s get started!”

Su Mo nodded before charging toward her like a bolt of lightning.

“Whoosh!”

Su Mo was so fast that he left a series of residual shadows in the air. He closed in on the Ninth Princess instantaneously and struck with his sword.

“Infinite Heaven and Earth!”

The fearsome Sword Qi seemed to have split heaven and earth as it struck toward her.

Her eyes lit up as she exerted her Genuine Vitality to fortify her Teal Lotus Shield.

Of course, she was not going to remain a sitting duck, so she countered the incoming Sword Qi with her Ethereal Flower Cut.

The terrifying Sword Qi then tore through her attack instantly and landed with an intense force on the lotus that surrounded her.

“Boom!”

The lotus trembled as the explosion was heard. Then, the Ninth Princess flew backward several hundred meters. However, the lotus was completely unscathed.

“Damn it!”

Su Mo’s eyes widened in astonishment at the Teal Lotus Shield’s incredible defense.

Su Mo’s attack just now was insanely powerful. Since his Nirvana Cultivation Method had reached the fourth realm, the power of his Genuine Vitality had doubled. Moreover, he had used the vast amount of the Genuine Vitality in his nine Spiritual Spirals together with the strongest move of Infinite Swordplay in the Great Completion. It was unbelievable that he still could not break through the Teal Lotus Shield.

It was fortunate that she was only at Lv 3 of the True Spirit Realm. Had she been at Lv 4, this battle would be pointless.

Because she could stand still and face any attack head-on, and yet remain unscathed.

“I don’t believe it!”

Su Mo yelled fiercely and instantly approached the Ninth Princess with his Spirit-slayer Sword high in the air.

He was now exerting his nine Spiritual Spirals to their maximum and poured a tremendous amount of Genuine Vitality into his sword. At the same time, Su Mo was shrouded in a golden light as a gigantic elephant’s shadow appeared and roared into the sky.

He had now unleashed all of his physical strength.

“Break!”

Su Mo cried violently and brandished his sword at her.

The Ninth Princess looked serious. Although Su Mo’s previous attack did not break through her defense, it did leave all her Blood Qi in turmoil.

Facing the even more powerful attack from Su Mo this time, she could only try her best to exert her Genuine Vitality to strengthen the Teal Lotus Shield.

“Rumble!”

As the Spirit-slayer Sword struck against the lotus shield mercilessly, its massive and violent power poured out onto the lotus with a deafening bang. The Ninth Princess was then sent back a thousand meters this time.

“Crack!”

In that instant, Su Mo was refreshed when he heard a cracking sound.

He looked closely and saw a tiny crack on one of the petals of the lotus shield.

Su Mo was overjoyed. Although it was just a tiny crack, it meant that the Teal Lotus Shield was at its limits!

The entire arena went into an uproar as well.

“It’s broken, it’s really broken!”

“If Su Mo’s attack can get more powerful, it’ll definitely break through the Teal Lotus Shield completely!”

“It seems like the Ninth Princess is going to lose. Her attacks aren’t as powerful as Su Mo’s, and if her defense can’t last any longer, she’ll definitely be defeated!”

“By the way, I wonder what martial arts skill her Teal Lotus Shield is. It’s so wicked!”

“It’s certainly not the imperial family’s martial arts skill!”

Everyone was discussing Su Mo’s power as well as the Ninth Princess’ strong defense.

In the imperial family’s corner, the experts were frozen in disbelief.

Their leader, Prince Rong, was frowning and looking unwell.

The Sixth Prince, Hong Qingtian, was dumbfounded as well. His Ninth Sister’s invincible defense was going to be broken by Su Mo’s overwhelming attack.

If Ao Wushuang was the one to break her defense, Hong Qingtian would not have been surprised. After all, that man’s strength was peerless, and his cultivation was at Lv 5 of the True Spirit Realm.

However, Su Mo was only at Lv 4, not to mention that he was just a nobody before. Considering it was Su Mo’s first competition, Hong Qingtian could hardly believe that a nobody could be so strong.

Ao Wushuang was sitting in the spectator stands, smiling.

“Interesting!”

He laughed gently. Regardless of the results, he expected the winner of the battle to be as strong as possible.

Otherwise, it would be quite boring if he was to end his opponent with a single move during the final showdown.

Only strong opponents could arouse his fighting desire.
