Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

Chapter 45 Overwhelming Strength, Rising Star

The sound of swords clashing echoed in all directions, attracting the attention of countless spectators, who were puzzled as to why.

Dugu Yan's long, narrow eyes looked at the peerless sword in Qi Dao's hand and trembled slightly.

Was that sword cry related to him?

On the stage, Yu Tianheng's pupils contracted as he suddenly sensed a dramatic change in the aura of the young man opposite him, who had instantly transformed from harmless to fiercely aggressive.

The air seemed to have gained a sharper edge.

"wrong!!"

Yu Tianheng's relaxed state of mind vanished instantly, replaced by solemnity and vigilance.

If he hadn't already given the order for Qi Dao to make the first move, he probably would have launched the attack by now.

Thinking of this, Yu Tianheng frowned slightly.

He never expected that the guy opposite him would pretend to be weak while actually being strong, deliberately using his harmless appearance to lower his guard.

Qi Dao could see that Yu Tianheng had assumed a defensive stance, but...

is that useful?

If Yu Tianheng were to reach level 30, with the powerful boost brought by his dragon transformation, Qi Dao might still be somewhat wary of him.

But if it's only level 20...

Sorry, this is his territory!

Even without using the Heart Sword state, he still didn't take Yu Tianheng seriously.

boom! !

Qi Dao suddenly exerted force with his feet, and his body shot out from the spot like an arrow.

Tatata!

Qi Dao strode forward and thrust out a sword with nothing fancy about it.

Forward thrust!

The blade of the Peerless Sword was covered with a layer of sword light. As it thrust forward, a sharp tearing sound immediately filled the air.

This sword strike had no hesitation, was decisive and fierce, and its speed was astonishing to Yu Tianheng.

Fortunately, the distance between the two was enough for Yu Tianheng to react. At the same time that Qi Dao thrust out his sword, he also reached out with a claw.

His claws are covered in dragon scales, which are the hardest parts of his body now, and he is confident that they can be used as top-level weapon spirits.

So when faced with Qi Dao's sword strike, he could have dodged it, but he chose to meet it head-on.

The sword blade pierced the dragon scales on Yu Tianheng's hand, sparks flying instantly.

Normally speaking, Qi Dao's current Peerless Sword is only comparable in quality to an ordinary high-level martial soul, and it is indeed no match for Yu Tianheng's Dragon Five Meters Six H.

However, the Peerless Sword is also imbued with sword aura and Heavenly Guardian Sword Intent.

With all these factors combined, how could Yu Tianheng's dragon scales possibly withstand this sword strike?

Click!

Yu Tianheng's pupils suddenly dilated, and the dragon scales in the center of his claws instantly cracked. He tried to retract his claws immediately, but how could Qi Dao give him that chance?

He seized the opportunity to thrust forward, attempting to pierce Yu Tianheng's palm.

Fortunately, Yu Tianheng was decisive enough. Seeing that there was no way to turn the tide, he clenched his other hand into a fist and slammed it toward Qi Dao's head.

If Qi Dao continues to attack, he will also receive a solid punch to the head.

Therefore, Qi Dao acted decisively, wiping the sword with his backhand.

Yu Tianheng's expression quickened, and he hurriedly retreated, narrowly avoiding the sword strike.

But Qi Dao's attacks were relentless; if one sword missed, another would strike.

Splitting!

The sword slashed down diagonally from mid-air.

Having learned his lesson earlier, Yu Tianheng, though puzzled as to why Qi Dao's sword could pierce his dragon scales, dared not use his claws to continue intercepting Qi Dao's sword.

Most importantly, only the dragon scales on his claws could block some of the damage.

If the sword strikes another part of the body, it will be even less effective at blocking the attack.

This put Yu Tianheng on the defensive for a time, forcing him to rely on his strong reflexes to dodge.

However, he was still forced into a sorry state by Qi Dao's tricky swordsmanship.

Upon seeing this, countless spectators in the stands erupted in a clamor.

Someone shouted, "Yu Tianheng, what are you doing? Fight back!"

"Use your soul skill now!"

On the other side of the Soul Master audience, Dugu Yan was filled with shock.

Yu Tianheng, a dignified Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul Master who also held an advantage in soul power, was completely suppressed by Qi Dao throughout the entire process.

This is simply a fantasy!

Moreover, Qi Dao's attacks were too fast and too dense, so Yu Tianheng had no chance to unleash his soul skills.

Forcibly releasing a soul skill will only allow Qi Dao to seize the opportunity before he uses it.

As an observer, Dugu Yan shook her head.

If Yu Tianheng does not try to distance himself from Qi Dao, he will be extremely frustrated and defeated by Qi Dao when he is forced into a passive defense.

After all, mistakes are made in haste, and prolonged reliance on rigid methods will inevitably lead to losses.

Sure enough, after only twenty-odd moves, Qi Dao suddenly unleashed three sword energies at close range.

Yu Tianheng was caught off guard. Although he dodged two of the attacks, he was still struck in the chest by the last one, and staggered back seven or eight steps.

Qi Dao seized the opportunity, and as he retreated, he instantly stepped forward, sweeping across the enemy ranks.

The sword's edge tore through the air, its dark gold blade gleaming.

Yu Tianheng's pupils suddenly contracted.

He saw Qi Dao's sword strike, but at that moment he was struck by the sword energy, and no new power had been generated within his body.

Qi Dao seized this opening and struck Yu Tianheng squarely with his sword.

"what!"

A spray of blood immediately splattered out.

Yu Tianheng screamed and his body flew backward.

Qi Dao twirled his sword, then casually slashed downwards, spraying all the blood onto the arena.

The outcome... is decided!

boom!

Yu Tianheng crashed more than ten meters away, his body sliding a distance on the ground. A bloody, gruesome sword wound appeared on his chest, in which the white bone could even be seen.

After a long while, Yu Tianheng coughed up a mouthful of blood and tried to stand up.

But as soon as he stood up, he immediately collapsed to his knees again, powerless.

In the audience, thousands of people were in high spirits.

Some people were shocked, some shook their heads and sighed, and some were still not satisfied.

Although no dazzling soul skills were unleashed in this battle, the intense fighting still made their blood boil.

They thoroughly enjoyed watching the intense competition.

The only downside is that it's too short; it's not satisfying to watch.

Yu Tianheng, in particular, was far too weak to fight; he was suppressed the entire time.

Is this really the number one beast spirit on the continent?

Dugu Yan's face still bore the lingering shock.

"Qi Dao actually won?"

"It's unbelievable. If this gets into the academy, the whole academy will be in an uproar."

"And what exactly is Qi Dao's martial soul? It was able to break through Tianheng's dragon scales without using any soul skills."

"Could it be some kind of top-tier weapon spirit, comparable to the Clear Sky Hammer and the Seven Kill Sword?"

On the arena.

Seeing that Yu Tianheng was no longer able to fight, the host quickly walked to the Soul Fighting Stage and announced loudly.

"Sword Master of Battle Spirits wins! Record: One win, zero losses!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a belated cheer erupted from the audience, like a tidal wave that resounded throughout the dome.

The fact that Yu Tianheng, who had won four consecutive matches, could be defeated so easily shows to everyone that a new star is rising in the Great Soul Arena.

Yu Tianheng clutched his chest with one hand, but his gaze was fixed intently on Qi Dao.

He harbored many grievances.

The main competition in Soul Master battles is the clash between Soul Skills.

He harbored many grievances.

Soul Master Battles are primarily a contest of the clash between Soul Skills.

With the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, if he were to unleash his Soul Skill, the opponent would be no match for him.

Ultimately, it was my own carelessness that got the better of me!

Thinking of this, Yu Tianheng, despite the injury on his chest, shouted, "Who exactly are you? Dare to leave your name!"

"Qi Dao!"

After saying that, Qi Dao left the arena without looking back.

Upon hearing this familiar name, Yu Tianheng's pupils suddenly dilated.

He remembered!
