Chapter 648: 648
"What! He could not even handle one attack!" A lot of people had their mouths wide open, looking shocked .
Although they thought that the winning chance for Ye Chen was extremely high, they had never expected to see Shangguan Fei not even handle one attack . Most of them thought that even if Ye Chen could win, it would not be an easy battle, and would take more than dozens or hundreds of attacks .
Since Shangguan Fei's power was obvious by beating Heishui Master, who was ranked 63rd, with only four attacks, this kind of a battle result was already impressive .
"Impressive!"
It was right when they started to question Ye Chen's power when he proved it again .
"How come you could improve this fast?"
Snow Sword Master was here as well; she had already prepared to see Ye Chen surpassing her, since she was not that young, and her potential had almost run out already . Her progress within a year would not be able to compare with that of the young martial geniuses . Plus, Ye Chen was not a normal young martial genius—he was one of the top . What she could never expect was that Ye Chen's one year training would be worth other Sea of Souls Realm warrior's dozen years, and maybe even be decades .
"What a sword art genius!" The Snow Sword Master mumbled to himself .
Li Daoxuan and the other two were just as shocked . They had not seen Ye Chen for more than a year, as all of them had been focused on their own training and nothing else . Because they were martial geniuses from the South Rudra Region, they did not have much contact with the Sky Martial Region . So, for the longest time, they had thought that there was not that big of a gap between Sea of Souls Realm warriors after all . But now, they knew that the gap was way bigger than they had expected . The normal Sea of Souls Realm master level warriors could not compete with Shangguan Fei's one attack . But, just as powerful as Shangguan Fei was, he still could not compete with Ye Chen . It was something that they could never imagine .
Actually, it was not their fault for overlooking this; only by standing high could they look far . Once they reached Ye Chen's level, they would then see that the gap in cultivation did not mean much . Only the gap in martial arts and profound was what made the difference . Once one reached the Late Sea of Souls Realm, they would be pretty much a master level warrior after learning a couple of low-rank profound sense martial arts and one more mid-rank profound sense martial art .
Although Ye Chen was not as powerful in his cultivation, his sword intent was at peak level rank 5 . If he infused his sword intent with his cultivation, then he would not lose at all even if he encountered peak level Late Seas of Souls Realm warriors with peak level rank 4 martial intent, and might even be able to win .
Without the cultivation and intent, Ye Chen's profound sense martial arts were even more impressive . Not to mention his Thunder Devour or Gold Fury, just his Gold Pattern was two-four times more powerful than any normal mid-rank profound sense martial art . It would be weird if Shangguan Fei was able to block out Ye Chen's attack .
Boom!
After landing onto a small mountain next to the lake, Shangguan Fei had sunk in completely into the rock wall, leaving a massive human-shaped hole . That aggressive sword qi leaked everywhere, shattering the mountain peak .
After puking out another mouthful of blood, Shangguan Fei passed out immediately . Some of the young warriors who were close to him hurried to pull him out and drag him onto the nearest ground .
Helian Wuhua saw what had happened to Shangguan Fei and looked at Ye Chen with fright . He was glad that he did not challenge Ye Chen before; otherwise, it would be him lying there right now . Right now, not to mention challenging Ye Chen, he could barely look him in the eyes .
Ye Chen glanced at Helian Wuhua; before Shangguan Fei went to challenge him, he had been chatting with the latter secretly as well . He knew that they were talking about who should go first .
After sensing Ye Chen's stare, Helian Wuhua hurried to look away and avoided looking him in the eyes . His palms were soaked with his sweat .
"Ye Chen is getting more and more powerful?"
Today was the last day before the agreed date of battle, and a lot of warriors had arrived on this day . Yan Fengfeng and Haiwu Ya were there as well, and it was exactly he who asked that question .
Yan Fengfeng said, "Right now, I cannot compete with him either . " One year ago, Yan Fengfeng thought that she could compete with Ye Chen for hundreds of attacks . And if she fought in her natural form, she could maybe beat him as well . But, she was just like the Godly Shark Princess who did not enjoy being so high profile in front of humans . Only when she ran into things she could not get out of would she use all of what she had . A lot of people knew that Yan Fengfeng always tended to hide her real power, so they would not dare to piss her off completely .
Hai Wuya said, "His power now would place him at the first level, right?"
There were different ranks for young martial geniuses, and the first rank would be that of the top five young warriors . The second rank would comprise of people like Lin Tian, while the third rank would be where Hai Wuya was standing . The fourth rank would comprise of some normal powerful young warriors; as for weaker ones, there would not be ranks for them anymore . Although Shangguan Fei and Helian Wuhua were way more powerful than Lin Tian, they were only ranked at the second level . But Situ Hao, Beiming Hui, and similar warriors were already approaching the first level . Some of them were already there, which included Yan Fengfeng .
"Alright, beating you like this should be more interesting!" It was right then when a sharp voice was heard everywhere in the Nine Dragon Lake .
"Situ Hao!"
Everyone looked over and saw him shooting out before his foot lightly tapped on the surface of the lake . A sword had been worn around his waist, along with another one on his back .
Ye Chen looked the same, "It seems like that you have made some progress with your Defensive Sword Spell again, haven't you? Bring it on!"
There was no need in guessing, Ye Chen knew that if he dared to stand out, then he would be confident enough with his power .
"Hm? By the sounds of it, the two had already battled before?"
"I assume so…I just wonder who had won that battle?"
"It is hard to tell . Situ Hao's sword spell is too powerful and fast . Its attacking power is very high as well, and most martial arts would not have enough time to be performed in front of that kind of speed . "
Tu Yuan, the Shattering Sword Master, was also a master level sword artist, and it was known that sword artists were known for their fast speed and reflexes . Yet, Situ Hao was able to beat him with only one sword, so it would not be hard to tell how powerful his defensive sword spell was .
