From the beginning of Swordsman, he created a legend in the martial arts world.

Having made up his mind to show his strength and deter villains at this time when good and evil meet, Meng Fei naturally did not hesitate to speak more sharply.

"It is not that I look down on Alliance Leader Zuo."

Meng Fei's gaze swept calmly over Zuo Lengchan, but his tone carried an almost indifferent arrogance.

"In the world today, the only swordsmanship that can pique my interest is Brother Linghu's 'Nine Swords of Dugu'; the rest... are nothing special!"

"Arrogant!"

Upon hearing this, Zuo Lengchan flew into a rage. "You callow brat, how dare you spout such nonsense here! Haven't you heard that Wudang Tai Chi Sword is unparalleled in the world, using softness to overcome hardness, with endless mysteries? Do you not even regard the Wudang Divine Sword in your eyes?"

Zuo Lengchan's mind raced. Meng Fei's swordsmanship was ruthless, and he also possessed the secret of the "Evil-Repelling Sword Manual." If he could seize the opportunity to capture and kill him, he could not only eliminate the hidden danger, but also perhaps gain some insight into the sword manual.

Moreover, this statement deliberately brought up the Wudang Tai Chi Sword, intending to provoke Master Chongxu into making a move.

Meng Fei was well aware of his intentions, but his original purpose was to establish his authority. Upon hearing this, he was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he was delighted.

If we can defeat Wudang Chongxu, who is famous for his swordsmanship, here, who will dare to easily invade the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual in the future?

"Left Alliance Leader, there's no need to sow discord among others."

Meng Fei smiled calmly, his sharp gaze fixed on Zuo Lengchan.

"If Leader Zuo truly wishes for me to remain at Shaolin, why not try it yourself? Why rely on others?"

Seeing Meng Fei's unbridled behavior and his direct criticism of Zuo Lengchan, Ren Woxing was overjoyed and laughed, "Master Zuo, you don't actually believe this kid's arrogance, do you? In my opinion, why don't you two have a fight first, and I can wait until you're done before we fight?"

The atmosphere in the arena immediately became tense, and Zuo Lengchan's face turned ashen.

"Amitabha!"

At that moment, Fangzheng uttered a Buddhist chant, his voice peaceful yet carrying an undeniable authority.

"Mr. Ren, Master Zuo, Benefactor Meng, today's events are chaotic and disorderly. To rashly start a war would be a bad thing for the martial arts world."

Master Chongxu nodded slightly upon hearing this and said slowly, "Sect Leader Zuo, Young Hero Meng, such a quarrel will only damage harmony! Our Wudang Tai Chi Sword is not a technique for fighting and winning."

However, Zuo Lengchan was determined to kill and was unwilling to give up easily, while Meng Fei was determined to establish his authority and was equally unwilling to back down.

Seeing the two locked in a fierce confrontation, Daoist Chongxu pondered to himself: Meng Fei's tone is so arrogant, and his fearsome reputation under the sword is not unfounded. If Zuo Lengchan is allowed to fight him, regardless of the outcome, it will probably stir up an even bigger storm.

It would be safer for Zuo Lengchan to test the "evil swordsman's" strength himself, and also avoid a life-or-death struggle with him.

Thinking of this, Daoist Chongxu stepped forward and said loudly, "Since Young Hero Meng has such insight into the sword techniques of the world, I, though unworthy, would like to offer a few moves of Wudang swordsmanship to Young Hero Meng as a way to verify my martial arts skills. What do you say?"

Then, he turned his gaze to Abbot Fangzheng and Yue Buqun: "As for the three matches arranged by Mr. Ren... Sect Leader Yue's swordsmanship is exquisite and his demeanor is magnificent. I wonder if he would be willing to participate and exchange blows with Mr. Ren's side?"

Yue Buqun, with a refined and scholarly demeanor, pondered for a moment before nodding and saying, "Since Daoist Chongxu has this intention, I am naturally willing to give it a try."

Seeing this, Ren Woxing's mind raced. Suddenly, he let out a loud laugh and shouted towards another shadowy spot in the side hall, "Linghu Chong! What are you hiding for? Come out here now!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Linghu Chong leap down from the shadow of the roof beam with a complicated expression.

Then, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to Meng Fei and Daoist Chongxu.

One is the infamous "Evil Swordsman" with a fierce and ruthless swordsmanship, and the other is the highly respected Wudang Sect Leader whose Tai Chi swordsmanship has reached perfection.

Meng Fei held his longsword horizontally, his aura as sharp as a drawn blade, revealing its full power. Meanwhile, Chong Xu Dao's longsword tip hung obliquely, his body relaxed and natural, which was the starting posture of Tai Chi sword, "All Methods Return to the Source".

"Young Master Meng, please!"

Master Chongxu smiled slightly.

"offend!"

Before Meng Fei could finish speaking, he had already rushed over like an arrow, and his attack was the "Spirit Serpent Probing the Cave" from the Thirteen Deadly Swords!

The sword light flashed like cold lightning, splitting the sky with incredible speed, leaving only a faint afterimage as it pierced straight towards Chongxu's vital acupoint.

Master Chongxu remained expressionless, his steps slightly shifting as he drew an arc with his long sword, seemingly slowly but actually swiftly.

With a clear clang, Meng Fei's swift sword seemed to pierce into an incredibly flexible ball of cotton. This was the Tai Chi sword technique of using softness to overcome hardness and neutralizing force into nothingness.

Seeing this, Meng Fei felt a slight chill. He didn't stop his sword strikes but changed his moves accordingly, unleashing "Three Stars Soul Stealing" and "Rainbow Piercing the Sun" in succession.

The Thirteen Deadly Swords were known for their speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness. Now, with the enhancement of his internal energy, the sword shadows overlapped layer upon layer, like a raging storm, leaving no room for retreat.

However, Daoist Chongxu remained as calm as a rock in the sea. No matter how fierce and swift Meng Fei's sword strikes were, once they touched that seemingly slow and gentle sword circle, they were skillfully deflected and could not be truly broken through.

In the blink of an eye, after more than ten moves, the two were evenly matched, with no clear winner!

The righteous and evil masters watching the battle were all deeply shocked.

Who is Master Chongxu? A renowned figure from Wudang, a martial arts master on par with Master Fangzheng of Shaolin!

Even if we only consider the sword techniques at this moment, without regard to cultivation level or internal strength, the purity and mystery of his Tai Chi swordsmanship have already reached their pinnacle.

This young Meng Fei's swordsmanship is so powerful that he can rival him and even gain the upper hand at times. His swordsmanship is simply astonishing!

Many people couldn't help but focus their attention on Meng Fei's fierce and unpredictable swordsmanship again, and they couldn't help but believe the rumors about the "Evil-Repelling Sword Technique" a little more. If he didn't possess a peerless sword manual, how could he have such attainments?

Just as the two were locked in fierce combat, a sneaky figure quietly moved from the edge of the crowd, its target being Aya and Alu, who had appeared with Meng Fei!

A hint of resentment and greed flashed in Yu Canghai's eyes. Then, taking advantage of Meng Fei's full attention to fighting Chongxu and his inability to pay attention to anything else, he actually wanted to capture the two women as hostages!

"How dare you, you scoundrel!"

A furious shout exploded like a thunderclap!

Meng Fei, who was in the midst of a fierce battle with Chongxu, caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye and was instantly enraged!

Immediately, disregarding the danger of fighting Chongxu, he flicked his wrist, and the long sword in his hand instantly transformed into a sharp white rainbow, shooting out straight for Yu Canghai's back!

Just as Yu Canghai was about to capture the two women, he felt a fierce wind coming from behind, and his hair stood on end. He no longer cared about capturing them and immediately let out a strange cry, scrambling to the side to dodge.

With a "whoosh," the longsword plunged deep into the spot where he had just stood, its hilt trembling violently and buzzing incessantly.

"Shameless scoundrel, to lay a hand on a woman! He's unworthy of being the leader of a sect!"

Meng Fei moved with the sword, and the instant the sword left his hand, he pounced on Yu Canghai like an arrow released from a bow.

Yu Canghai's sneak attack failed, and he was attacked instead. Terrified, he dared not take the attack head-on and had no choice but to use the Qingcheng Sect's "Pine Breeze Sword Technique" to retreat in a sorry state, completely losing the demeanor of a sect leader.

"Hahaha."

Upon seeing this, Ren Woxing burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"You shorty, your methods are truly despicable; even I, an old man, am ashamed for you!"
