Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 121: Defeating Tang Yu in Seconds

```

The next five matches had basically no suspense.

The final eight who advanced were Situ Feng from Li Huo Sect, Tang Yu, and a Third Rank of the Eighth Layer Realm named Chen Tai.

From Tyrant Heavenly Sect, only Lei Hu and a Third Rank of the Eighth Layer Realm named Li Wanshan advanced.

For Yudao Sect, naturally only Xue Wen advanced.

Beichen Sword Sect was represented by Xu Ping’an and Li Qingyi advancing.

This round still involved drawing lots, but the results of the draw were announced in advance.

First match: Situ Feng versus Li Wanshan

Second match: Tang Yu against Li Qingyi

Third match: Lei Hu against Chen Tai

Fourth match: Xue Wen against Xu Ping’an

As soon as this matchup information was released, the crowd immediately burst into exclamations.

Situ Feng against Li Wanshan?

Doesn’t that mean that Situ Feng is sure to advance to the top four?

Tang Yu against Li Qingyi, in many people’s eyes, Tang Yu is certain to win.

As for the result of Lei Hu against Chen Tai, it is not difficult to predict.

Of course, what people most anticipated was Xu Ping’an against Xue Wen.

Originally, many did not believe Xu Ping’an could defeat Xue Wen.

But since Xu Ping’an had easily won his match against Lei Bao, many felt that the outcome between Xu Ping’an and Xue Wen was truly uncertain.

Xu Ping’an, seeing these results, couldn’t help but sneer to himself.

As expected, the chance for revenge for Tang Qingheng had come.

Time passed swiftly.

The first fight also began subsequently.

Just as everyone predicted, Situ Feng defeated Li Wanshan with a single move.

He won so easily that he didn’t even reveal his true cultivation.

"Situ Feng is, eight or nine out of ten times, already advanced to Fourth Rank," said Xu Ping’an.

"Mmm, he has always concealed his aura. It looks like he wants to hide his strength," Li Qingyi said.

Xu Ping’an nodded in agreement.

Situ Feng was indeed strong.

"Your match is up next. Win, and you’re in the top four. Are you confident?" Xu Ping’an asked with a smile.

"The top five will certainly include at least two from Beichen Sword Sect this time," Li Qingyi confidently said.

"Good, I look forward to your performance," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

Li Qingyi gave a slight smile and then walked towards the arena.

Tang Yu had already arrived on the stage.

The crowd’s eyes were all on the two of them.

This match, in their view, was sure to be won by Tang Yu.

Yet Li Qingyi, after all, was the number one beauty of Tianlong County, so for many, this fight was also a feast for the eyes.

"Junior Sister Li, your previous performance was very stunning, truly worthy of being Tianlong County’s number one prodigy," Tang Yu began.

"Cut the crap, let’s start," Li Qingyi said indifferently.

She did not give Tang Yu any face at all.

Tang Yu’s expression froze, and his face suddenly became awkward.

He originally wanted to gain some favor from Li Qingyi, but he did not expect her to be so cold.

"Junior Sister Li, I still think it’s better to say this upfront, swords and spears have no eyes. If you get hurt, don’t blame me," Tang Yu said.

The next moment, a long spear appeared in his hand.

As soon as the spear was in hand, Tang Yu’s entire demeanor became razor-sharp.

Spear Momentum!

Clearly, Tang Yu’s spear momentum had reached the Great Accomplishment Realm, with him seeming to become one with his spear.

"Spear momentum at Great Accomplishment? It looks like Li Qingyi is bound to lose this battle," Qin Mu couldn’t help saying.

The Sect Master of Li Huo Sect gave a slight smile, his face showing a look of pride.

Tang Yu’s strength, he was quite confident in.

"Li Qingyi is also quite good, only seventeen years old, her potential for the future is still very great," the Sect Master of Li Huo Sect said with a smile.

Qin Mu smiled faintly, not bothering to continue the conversation.

Li Qingyi’s advantage had vanished, and she was likely to lose this fight.

"Fourth Sister is ultimately still lacking in cultivation. If she were also at the Third Rank Ninth Layer, then she could really give Brother Tang a fight," Li Tianqi murmured to himself.

Zhao Tianlong furrowed his brows, his expression tense.

Xu Ping’an, on the other hand, was completely calm, watching Li Qingyi with some anticipation.

```

Li Qingyi had an expressionless face at that moment.

"Junior Sister Li, my spear technique has also reached the Great Accomplishment of Spear Momentum, you have no advantages in this battle, you should just admit defeat," Tang Yu said with pride.

The disciples of Li Huo Sect exclaimed in amazed whispers.

Domineering!

Truly worthy of being the second prodigy of Li Huo Sect.

"Let’s decide the outcome with one move," said Li Qingyi indifferently.

No sooner had she spoken than a soaring Sword Intent unfurled from her being.

The terrifying Sword Intent seemed to tear through the clouds, shooting straight up to the Ninth Layer Heavens.

With the augmentation of this Sword Intent, Li Qingyi’s robes fluttered, and her figure actually rose into the air, hovering in the void.

"What? Sword Intent?"

"Li Qingyi has actually reached the level of Sword Intent? How is that possible?"

Yu Lin and Shi Tian both stood up from their seats.

Zhao Tianlong was too excited to speak.

The entire audience was dumbfounded, their eyes fixed on Li Qingyi with stunned expressions.

Had Li Qingyi actually broken through to the level of Sword Intent?

Good heavens!

Even Situ Feng and others like Xue Wen, Lei Hu, and the rest were watching, dumbstruck.

They hadn’t reached the level of Sword Intent themselves.

"This lady truly possesses an exceptional talent, a phoenix among people!" Qin Mu couldn’t help but exclaim earnestly.

At this moment, Li Qingyi was dazzlingly beautiful, captivatingly brilliant.

"Your Highness, would you consider..." Chen Guangcai began.

Qin Mu shook his head.

Seeing this, Chen Guangcai no longer pressed the matter.

Xu Ping’an looked at Li Qingyi at this moment, a faint smile appearing on his face.

As he expected, this was Li Qingyi’s true trump card.

Tang Yu was also dumbfounded at this moment. Sword Intent?

How could this be possible?

But at this very moment, as he was the closest to Li Qingyi, he could distinctly feel the terrifying, scorching Sword Intent emanating from her.

Under this Sword Intent, he felt his very soul quivering.

"Use your most powerful strike now, or you won’t have another chance," Li Qingyi spoke softly.

In the next moment, she raised her Sharp Sword horizontally.

Endless True Yuan gathered, and under this congregation of True Yuan—

Li Qingyi’s Sharp Sword let out an ultimate tremor.

And beneath this tremor, Li Qingyi’s sword emitted a heart-shaking pressure.

This terrifying pressure instantly overwhelmed the entire arena.

"Such terrifying momentum, is this what Sword Intent is?" many in the crowd exclaimed.

At this moment, Li Qingyi gave off an immensely powerful presence.

"No, I absolutely cannot lose. Transforming Dragon Spear Technique, Ninth Form, Dragon Strikes the Nine Heavens!"

With a loud shout, Tang Yu thrust his spear forward, bringing forth an incredibly fearsome Spear Momentum toward Li Qingyi.

His Spear Momentum was powerful, carrying an unstoppable, overbearing aura.

However, Li Qingyi’s momentum was even stronger.

"Chi!"

A phoenix’s cry sounded.

In the next moment, an enormous ancient true phoenix phantom appeared behind her.

"Stack Waves Sword Technique, Eighteenth Form, Eighteen Swords Unified!" Li Qingyi bellowed.

Eighteen Sword Intents appeared around her, and these Sword Shadows instantly merged into the sword in her hand.

Then she thrust out with her sword.

A horrifyingly powerful Fire Attribute True Yuan Sword shot out instantly.

"Boom!"

This sword collided with Tang Yu’s spear, resulting in a thunderous explosive sound.

"Spurt!"

The spear in Tang Yu’s hands was instantly sent flying, and he himself flew back in a straight line, violently spewing blood, fainting on the spot.

Seeing this scene, everyone was left speechless.

Defeated in a second?
