Chapter 42 Clean and Neat, A Deadly Sword Stroke
"Pah!"
"What are you even worth?"
"Get lost!"
As expected, a barrage of angry shouts suddenly erupted, but Meng Yu just snorted coldly, then the next moment, he arrived beside Wang Youcai, who was ranked ninth.
He was the first to boldly step forward, indicating that he would not participate in the draw!
"You were quite fierce today, repeatedly rebutting Zhuge Caihua's proposals."
Zhuge Caihua had been trying to pinpoint who was using ventriloquism to disrupt the proposal, suspecting it was someone ranked beyond the top hundred, but in fact, Meng Yu sensed that it was Wang Youcai's doing.
Although this man was the first to stand up in support of Zhuge Caihua, although at that time he seemed immensely impassioned.
He even moved many people deeply!
"You're full of it, I support Zhuge Caihua."
Wang Youcai sneered, looking at Meng Yu. He was a bit surprised, how could this man have discovered his Heavenly Dragon Chant?
His stepping forward was to win everyone's favor, because there would always be fools moved by Zhuge Caihua to stand up, so he took the opportunity to step up first.
However, he opposed the proposal even more. Although he could be exempted, his girlfriend and several close friends were not within the top hundred, but their cultivation levels were high. The guaranteed top hundred spots held no allure for him, but losing these people and then pledging allegiance to True Lord of Bai Yang would result in the loss of much of his power.
Of course, his stepping forward was to gain the favor of many; he was confident in surviving. He looked down on these naive and straightforward middle school students; he wanted even more.
"Meng Yu, you're slandering me!
"Kill him!"
"And you want to add fifty more spots for him?"
Wang Youcai's friends at his side all drew their weapons, somewhat puzzled as well, wondering how the usually stingy and mean-spirited Wang Youcai had changed like this, but that didn't stop them from gathering around him.
"The Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Formation?"
Meng Yu laughed, looking at those seven people.
This sword array was infamous, able to fuse seven people together to form a supremely tight sword array.
Just so you know, even Zhao Yuxuan, who was in first place, wouldn't last more than a hundred moves against this sword array!
"Hello, everyone."
Meng Yu smiled, revealing his bright white teeth.
...
Those outside, of course, were watching this match closely. Meng Yu was ranked thirty-third, and Wang Youcai was ninth, effectively twice Meng Yu's ranking, but in terms of combat power, everyone agreed the two were fairly comparable. Meng Yu had excellent swordsmanship, while Wang Youcai was a scion of a prestigious family with a profound background. However, if Wang Youcai were to join six companions to form the Great Northern Dipper Heavenly Formation against Meng Yu, ten out of ten people would believe Meng Yu stood no chance of winning.
Even if he had a trump card, a secret technique, what of it?
The six companions with Wang Youcai were all experts ranked within the top three thousand, from the same school, all constantly refining their skill in the sword array. The Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Formation was very famous, and the seven together were sufficient to face the assault of thirty peers of the same level!
What could Meng Yu use to win?
Yes, with what could he win?
Meng Yu, facing the enemies forming the sword array, laughed.
Having achieved the Growing Golden Lotus, Meng Yu immersed himself daily in the essence of the wind, the taste of fire. His Divine Sense had grown more than tenfold strong, with everything reflected in the clear mirror at the bottom of his heart.
The strength of his Divine Soul was simply incomparable to these children!
Wang Youcai's expression, the constitution of the sword array, what each person intended to do next, the changing vitalities of the combined Sword Qi, were all as predictable as the tides under the sun and moon...
Then, he swung his sword.
The great Dao has fifty, one escapes.
In theory, the Great Northern Dipper Heavenly Formation has no flaws, but the people who set the formation do have flaws.
They will be afraid, they will move, they will breathe, they might even have involuntary muscle reactions.
All of this will inevitably lead to flaws, like a solitary boat in a vast river, which a common person can hardly grasp. But now, Meng Yu saw it.
In the instant just now, there was an issue with the combination of Qi of three people, and at that moment, the wind blew in!
The Wind-Slicing Strike.
Meng Yu's sword, following the wind, sliced through!
A perfect arc traced, Meng Yu's body twisted strangely a few times, and he entered the sword array's blind spot. The next second, an arm soared into the sky.
With one sword strike, Meng Yu severely wounded one of them!
"Is this, is this White Crane Swordsmanship?"
The onlookers, one by one, widened their eyes, it was certainly White Crane Swordsmanship, and the most authentic White Crane Offering Fruit at that. Even the Wind-Slicing Strike was just a part of White Crane Swordsmanship!
The seven-man team was down one member, and now Meng Yu was on an incredible high!
Although the Growing Golden Lotus absorbed most of the hundredfold strength, the accompanying enhancement made his Divine Soul incredibly powerful.
It's as if a person had undergone a thousand years of mediation!
In his heart, like a clear mirror-like lake, reflected the every movement of these people. Their every action reflected clearly, he mastered everything about them.
The Divine Illumination Technique, meticulously thorough!
Then, another flash of sword light passed, the gentle breeze on the face turned into a fierce headwind, and Meng Yu's second sword strike cut down!
Break, break, break!
The arms of three swordsmen, along with their weapons, fell to the ground. With this sword strike, Meng Yu switched from with-the-grain to against-the-grain, directly severing their arms. At this moment, Wang Youcai and his two companions finally found Meng Yu's flaw, their three swords along with the True Qi they had accumulated, directly hacked towards Meng Yu!
Just when everyone thought Meng Yu would avoid this sword, Meng Yu's long sword struck out again, like the White Crane stretching out its long wings. The Wind-Slicing Strike and White Crane Spreads Its Wings at this moment completely merged into one. The next moment, Wang Youcai and his companions' accumulated Sword Qi was directly sliced through, and then three wind blades passed by, their arms also landing on the ground!
Then, Meng Yu's sword rested on Wang Youcai's neck.
"Say, was it you who used ventriloquism just now to provoke?"
"You release..."
Just when everyone thought Meng Yu would continue questioning or engage in idle talk, the long sword trembled slightly, and a spurt of blood shot into the sky, Wang Youcai's head fell to the ground, rolling in front of everyone with a series of rumbles.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"I have no need to slander people."
Clean and decisive, just like that, one sword.
He didn't even wait for Wang Youcai to say a few more platitudes!
"You're lying, you clearly..."
Someone started yelling from the side, but at that moment, Meng Yu's eyes fell on a beautiful girl. She had been standing next to Wang Youcai, and her expression had shifted slightly.
"Will you tell the truth, or die?"
Meng Yu looked at the girl, who must have been Wang Youcai's lover, presumably.
The scene went silent, the children still hadn't recovered from Meng Yu's decisive killing.
It was agreed to talk reason, yet this person actually murdered outright!
