After forcing Zi Yinyang to retreat, Zhang Ruochen immediately infused Genuine Qi into his legs and leapt over three meters into the air . He landed above the observation platform and took the height advantage .
In so doing, he would be able to react in time to any of Zi Yinyang's attacks .
Zhang Ruochen's gaze swept around the Coliseum of the Martial Market and saw warriors all fighting their hardest . Dozens of bodies already littered the floor .
Most of the bodies were evil warriors from the black market or the Moon Worship Demonic Sect . There were some fallen members of the Martial Market School and the Yuntai Suzerain; they lay in the blood moaning pitifully .
The black market and the Moon Worship Demonic Sect had prepared well for this battle . Although there were many masters among those who came from the Martial Market School and the Yuntai Suzerain, they still sustained heavy losses .
Sweeping his gaze across the scene, Zhang Ruochen saw that the Ninth Commandery Princess was in dire circumstances, surrounded by seven evil warriors .
The seven evil warriors were all masters . Under their combined attack, the Ninth Commandery Princess had already sustained three wounds and fresh blood stained her clothes .
"SWISH!"
Zhang Ruochen moved at his fastest speed of 140 meters per second and flashed down to stand in-front of the Ninth Commandery Princess .
"Dragon Shape and Elephant Shadow!"
Countless shadow fists flew out in one attack .
His Genuine Qi surged out and created lines of dragon and elephant shadow which flashed in the void space .
"Snap!"
The sound of bone breaking rang out loudly .
All seven of the evil warriors let out desperate cries . Blood spewed from their mouths and they all flew back, landing a dozen meters away before succumbing .
The Ninth Commandery Princess finally released a breath and asked, "Ninth brother, what do we do now?"
"Don't worry . Yunwu City's army are sure to come as fast as they can given the immensity of the situation . The warriors of the black market and the Moon Worship Demonic Sect will soon retreat . " Zhang Ruochen replied .
The Ninth Commandery Princess pursed her lips . Watching the increasing brutality of the evil warriors, she felt she wouldn't be able to last until the Yunwu City army arrived .
Zhang Ruochen took out the War Map Luo Shuihan had given him and shoved it at the Ninth Commandery Princess, "Infuse your Genuine Qi into the War Map and you'll be able to immediately summon Leopard-headed Blood Bats to help you . They should be enough to hold out against an attack from a normal warrior of the Earth Realm . "
After some thought, Zhang Ruochen was still worried . He took out the Wings of Wind and handed it to the Ninth Commandery Princess .
"Zhang Ruochen, I will be your opponent today . I am determined to take your head this time . "
Zi Yinyang's Genuine Qi was rich and thick, and it contained great power . Having sliced through three students of the Martial Market School in a row, he rushed out of the crowd towards Zhang Ruochen . In his hand was a bloody Fish Intestine Sword and it was aimed right at Zhang Ruochen's throat .
Zhang Ruochen struck with one fist against the Ninth Commandery Princess' chest and pushed her back dozens of meters .
"Shadow of the Royal Wind Dragon!"
Zhang Ruochen's body split into nine and became nine shadows .
Zi Yinyang immediately changed his attack and swung his sword quickly back and forth to make dozens of sword shadows .
Each sword stroke seemed to slide passed Zhang Ruochen's body . If Zhang Ruochen hadn't Practiced Shadow of the Royal Wind Dragon to perfection, he would probably have been sliced to pieces by now .
"Junior brother apprentice Zhang, let me help you . "
Chang Qiqi let out a long cry and sliced towards Zi Yinyang with a two handed attack .
Chang Qiqi's martial cultivation had reached the Final State of the Earth Realm, and he was also a great prodigy . Below the Heaven Realm, he was among the best . A normal warrior at the Completion of the Earth Realm would not be able to beat him .
Having attacked with all his strength, even Zi Yinyang had to dodge the attack . He quickly retreated one step to avoid the sharp sword .
"Bam!"
Chang Qiqi's attack struck the ground and left a long scar . Around the scar there were tiny cracks and lines .
"Stay out of it . "
Zi Yinyang's eyes became serious and he struck out again .
"What elegance . "
The Fish Intestine Sword spun quickly and emitted an ear-piercing cry .
"PFFFT!"
Although Chang Qiqi's martial cultivation was very high, he was unable to avoid the strike from Zi Yinyang . The sword went through his body, with the tip exiting through his back .
"Uh . . . "
Chang Qiqi's body shook with pain and blood dripped continuously from the corner of his mouth .
Zi Yinyang was more skillful with a long sword than with a broadsword, and although Chang Qiqi's cultivation was high, it would have been difficult for him to avoid such a strike .
"Elder Brother Chang!"
Zhang Ruochen let out a roar and immediately rushed over . His index and middle fingers were extended together to a point and he struck at Zi Yinyang's right arm .
"You came right on time, I can send both of you off together . "
Zi Yinyang pulled out his sword and scattered fresh blood on the ground . A blast of cold air surged from his hands and covered the tip of the sword in a layer of icy blood crystals .
In Zi Yinyang's opinion, although Zhang Ruochen's martial cultivation was not as advanced as Chang Qiqi's, he was far ahead in terms of tactics and speed in combat .
And so he considered Zhang Ruochen the more dangerous enemy and did not dare to underestimate him .
Once Zhang Ruochen was only five steps away, Zi Yinyang moved like lightning and struck with his sword towards the center of Zhang Ruochen's forehead .
Being a top assassin, Zi Yinyang knew all about taking advantage of the situation .
Only strike at the most optimal moment, and strike to kill .
This one strike was sure to take Zhang Ruochen's life!
Just as Zi Yinyang's strike was about to reach Zhang Ruochen, space warped a little, and the point of the sword sliced past Zhang Ruochen's left cheek .
