Chapter 158: Breaking the Formation to Win
Chapter 158: Breaking the formation to win
Trapped in the killing formation, a steady stream of new sword light was born, sweeping towards Xu Chuniang’s location, but without exception, all were absorbed and suppressed by her with the green striped tripod.
After collecting all the sword lights within the formation, Xu Chunniang smiled faintly and drove the Green Pattern Tripod to smash heavily in one direction.
Since she couldn’t find the formation flag or the formation eye, she would directly smash a hole in the formation.
Outside the formation, Zhao Yuehuan frowned, since that arrow, she could clearly feel that the formation seemed to have undergone some kind of change, and did not know what was happening inside.
She had wanted to use the Trapping and Killing Formation to gain the upper hand, consume Xu Chunniang’s spiritual energy, and then release cold arrows from the sidelines, constantly applying pressure so that she would voluntarily admit defeat.
But right now, it didn’t seem to work.
But at this moment, the array disk “clicked”, actually produced a crack.
Zhao Yuehuan’s face changed slightly, and without a second thought, he pulled the bowstring full, firmly locking the qi in the formation, and three arrows were fired in unison.
When the three silver arrows left the string, the array plate once again “click”, adding a new crack.
The crowd outside the arena didn’t know the details, and when they saw this scene, they thought that Xu Chuniang, who was trapped by the formation, would soon be unable to withstand the pressure and admit defeat.
“Three consecutive arrows from the Cloud Piercing Bow, it’s hard to avoid all of them even outside of the formation, let alone in the Trapped Killing Formation.”
“Sister Zhao Yuehuan’s methods are not very honorable, but as a formation cultivator, she can’t be faulted for what she did.”
“There’s no suspense in this battle, the winner has already been decided.”
But at this moment, there was a “bang” sound from the field, and the Trapped Killing Formation was actually broken open from the inside.
Three silver-colored arrows along with several broken formation flags exploded in all directions.
In the next second, Xu Chuniang held the tripod and broke the formation, and continued to drive the green tattoo tripod towards the remnants of the formation, and before long, the remnants of the formation were completely destroyed.
When Zhao Yuehuan saw this scene, her face instantly went white, and she exclaimed in heartbreaking pain, “My formation!”
She never expected that in such a short period of time, the formation that had consumed countless amounts of her effort and spirit stones would be destroyed.
Zhao Yuehuan gritted her teeth and looked hatefully at Xu Chuniang and the green-colored tripod, could it be that she was using this object to resist her flying arrows and also destroy the formation?
Xu Chuniang looked back over and smiled faintly, “Returning the favor.”
As her words fell, the body of the green patterned tripod shook slightly, and countless sword lights were released from within, heading towards Zhao Yuehuan.
Zhao Yuehuan’s face changed drastically, and she instantly recognized these sword lights as the ones in her formation.
This Xu Chuniang was so capable that she had collected these sword lights and used them against her at this moment!
Hundreds of sword lights were fired in unison, Zhao Yuehuan no matter how unwilling she was had to admit that she couldn’t take this move.
Looking at the sword lights that were getting closer and closer, she hid the unwillingness under her eyes and cried out in a loud voice, “I admit defeat, Uncle Foundation Builder save me!”
Before her words fell, the Foundation Building Master who had been meditating with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, he struck out a spell, dispersing all the sword lights.
“This battle, Xu Chuniang wins.”
Xu Chuniang put away the Green Lines Tripod, jumped down from the ring, and was about to leave when she heard a voice from the back.
“Xu …… senior sister please stay.”
Xu Chuniang turned around, and the one who called out to her was none other than Zhao Yuehuan, who had just lost on the field.
“Anything else?”
Zhao Yuehuan’s mood was a little complicated, Xu Chuniang had destroyed her formation, and also made herself lose her qualifications for further advancement, comparable to the arena where it was a matter of life and death, and she did not have the slightest bit of reticence when she released her arrows.
From this point of view, what Xu Chuniang did was not too much.
Zhao Yuehuan took a deep breath and suppressed her thoughts. “I want to know how you managed to break the formation from, was senior sister proficient in formations, or was there a weakness in the formation I laid down?”
Xu Chuniang shook her head, “I’m not proficient in formations, and naturally, I couldn’t find any weaknesses in the formation.”
Zhao Yuehuan was slightly stunned at his words, not expecting such a result.
“But Senior Sister Xu is not proficient in the way of formations, so how did she break the formation in such a short period of time?”
Xu Chuniang smiled blandly, “Since I don’t know the way of trickery, I naturally had to use brute force.”
Zhao Yuehuan’s face changed slightly, if that was really the case, then in today’s match, she hadn’t lost unjustly.
To be able to break the formation with brute force alone, one could imagine how amazing this Senior Sister Xu’s strength was.
Looking at Xu Chuniang’s departing back, Zhao Yuehuan secretly sighed, before the match she thought that she had encountered a soft target, but only now did she realize how naive her previous thoughts were.
It seemed that she still had a long way to go before she reached the top ten of the Outer Sect Competition.
Xu Chuniang returned to the lecture room and directly began meditating to recover her spiritual energy.
As long as she won, there would be a new competition. The next opponents would only get stronger.
A lion fighting a rabbit still needed all its strength, and she had to be at her best when facing opponents of the same rank.
The second opponent Xu Chuniang encountered was a weak scholar-like male cultivator named Tang Li.
Without exchanging pleasantries, the two of them began fighting directly after the announcement of the start.
The spirit weapon Tang Li used was a curved sword, and with his unpredictable stance and speed, it was impossible to defend against.
Just after the fight officially began, he adopted a strong attack, heading towards Xu Chuniang with a murderous aura.
When the crowd outside the arena saw this scene, they all pinched a sweat for Xu Chuniang.
“Senior Brother Tang Li’s moves are treacherous and difficult to defend against. Those who fought against him would often suffer serious injuries, and there were even two people who couldn’t admit defeat in time and died under Senior Brother Tang’s blade.”
“Senior Brother Tang Li is too strong, Senior Sister Xu won against Senior Sister Zhao Yuehuan yesterday, and originally had high hopes of entering the top 100, but when she met Senior Brother Tang, I’m afraid she’ll lose.”
“In the last Outer Sect Competition, Senior Brother Tang was able to enter the top fifty in the competition, and even the top ten might not be impossible. However, he ran into Senior Sister Lan Wei early, and that’s why he lost.”
Although it seemed to the crowd that Xu Chuniang’s “dark horse” would probably lose, they still stared at the situation on the field, refusing to miss this duel.
In the face of the surging Tang Li, Xu Chunniang didn’t choose to take it hard, but instead maneuvered her Spirit Void Steps and retreated backward.
Tang Li smiled coldly, this retreat of hers was just what he wanted.
Only to see Tang Li’s scimitar suddenly come out of his hand, spinning at an extremely fast speed, heading towards Xu Chuniang.
The disciples subconsciously held their breath, if they were struck by the scimitar, they would be seriously injured if not killed, there was one person who was killed under the knife of Tang Li because of this move.
Can Xu senior sister crack this knife, or will …… she admit defeat directly?
Looking at the curved knife that came swirling in front of her, Xu Chuniang unhurriedly offered up her green patterned tripod and blocked in front of the curved knife.
Although the scimitar was sharp, it couldn’t break through the heavy green pattern tripod. It crashed heavily into the tripod’s body, emitting an ear-piercing scraping sound, and its momentum was suddenly stalled.
Tang Li lifted his hand to retrieve the machete, the corner of his mouth curved out an arc, this tripod is a bit interesting.
Only his scimitar is thin and dexterous, this tripod is big and bulky, how many times can it block his scimitar?
Tang Li’s figure was like electricity, and he attacked again from another direction.
