Chapter 41: Flying Knife And Sword

Shrek Academy.

The weather was not good, with dense dark clouds obscuring the sun's brilliance.

Gu Yi, who had just started eating, suddenly stood up and looked south, his brows furrowed.

"Brother Yi, what's wrong?" Oscar put down his chopsticks, worried. Normally, he was calm and composed, unaffected by anything. Why were his emotions so volatile lately?

"It's nothing. It's just an opportunity for you all to see what real martial arts is."

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared in the sky, riding a sword. Hovering above Shrek Academy, his aura was not yet stable, but his momentum was exceptionally fierce, like a drawn sword. The sword intent emanating from him soared to the sky.

"Where is Flender?" His tone was full of killing intent, especially since he had just finished a fight and his aura hadn't calmed down yet.

Flender flew out.

"What business does Sword Douluo have here?" Flender looked at the fiercely murderous Chen Xin, feeling a sense of dread. It seemed the news had reached the ears of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Otherwise, Sword Douluo wouldn't be so angry.

"Fengzhi asked you to take good care of Rong Rong. How dare you let her become a beggar. By humiliating our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan in this way do you think the Seven Kill Sword is no longer effective?" Chen Xin's voice remained unchanged, but Flender couldn't maintain his flying posture any longer and fell from the sky. A trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

The terror of a Titled Douluo! Especially one like Chen Xin, who had already reached the 96th rank as a Titled Douluo. The gap between each level beyond 95th rank was like heaven and earth. The terrifying advancement in strength was unimaginable. When facing Chen Xin, the difference was even greater than that between an ordinary person and a spirit master. Just releasing his martial spirit and aura was enough to make him lose control of his body.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This is just part of my training plan. If you need to vent your anger, just punish me." Flender took the blame upon himself.

"Dean, are you alright?" Gu Yi quickly came to Flender's side, looking at Flender, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, with a trace of anger in his heart. Don't be fooled by his usual carefree appearance. In fact, the relationship between him and Flender was very deep. Although he didn't say it over the years, it didn't mean he had forgotten. It was precisely because of this that he chose to stay at Shrek Academy, and there was no hiding anything from Flender. If it weren't for that day 15 years ago, when he took him away, he might have become the first transmigrator in history to have die as a baby.

"Chen Xin, you've stirred up trouble." Gu Yi looked up at Chen Xin in the sky.

Turning to the few people who had come to their side, he said, "Take a good look. Spirit masters don't just need to rely on spirit rings for attacks." With that, to the astonishment of everyone present, Gu Yi soared into the air without any support, as if a true immortal had come.

"Damn, Brother Yi has become a god!" Oscar was stunned. He had never known that Gu Yi had such abilities. Flying without relying on external objects was something only a Titled Douluo could do.

Gu Yi could do it with just the rank of Spirit King, shocking everyone present. Even Chen Xin was astonished at this moment.

"Turning Rong Rong into a beggar was my doing." However, this slight shock instantly turned into boundless anger. Gu Yi's indifference completely infuriated the old man who loved Ning Rongrong dearly.

"No one can save you today." With the Seven Kill Sword in hand, Chen Xin's sword intent surged, and the nine spirit rings around him revolved one by one. There was no change in the spirit rings around Chen Xin, but a fierce sword qi flew towards Gu Yi, unstoppable like a storm. In his eyes, even if this young man had some means, the difference in strength between them was too great.

Gu Yi looked at the sword qi, with no intention of avoiding it, but instead took the initiative to meet it head-on. In a strange posture in midair, Gu Yi caught the sword qi in a terrifying manner and unexpectedly sent it back with a burst of force. Chen Xin casually extinguished the sword qi and looked at Gu Yi with astonishment.

"Damn, this is Tai Chi. Brother Yi's mastery of it is too powerful." Oscar couldn't believe what he was seeing in the sky. Just now, it was definitely Tai Chi. However, the gap between him and Gu Yi had indeed widened. With his current comprehension and cultivation level, even if he wanted to block Dai Mubai's attack, it would be difficult, let alone the attack of the legendary Sword Douluo.

Not only was Oscar shocked, but everyone else was equally incredulous watching Gu Yi block Chen Xin's attack unscathed. This was a Titled Douluo, a figure standing at the peak of the continent.

Chen Xin was also interested in Gu Yi. Being able to block his attack unscathed was not something an ordinary person could do.

"What's your name?" Although Gu Yi looked very young, at the level of a Titled Douluo, eternal youth was not a problem. Even a Title Douluo who looked like a child was not unheard of.

"Gu Yi. Sword Douluo, you've seen my sword, but you haven't seen my knife." As he spoke, Gu Yi produced a small pocket knife, part of the set he had made by a blacksmith before. He had become accustomed to using it over the years.

Chen Xin, with an underlying sense of caution, noticed that although the knife looked no different from ordinary ones, it gave him a sense of danger.

Five spirit rings surrounded him.

"Spirit King?" Chen Xin looked at the spirit rings around Gu Yi in shock.

But Gu Yi didn't give him time to be surprised. The first, third, and fourth spirit rings on his body lit up. The surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth swarmed towards him and entered his body. At this moment, Gu Yi seemed to become a part of the heaven and earth, with mutual interdependence. The power of heaven and earth seemed to become his own. The extreme pressure caused the rain, which was supposed to fall in a few hours, to come down prematurely.

"How convenient." Gu Yi felt the rain brushing his cheeks and falling on the blade.

"Thunder, come." Gu Yi shouted, and the thunder in the sky seemed to hear his call and fell onto the flying knife in his hand. In this thunderstorm, the momentum of Gu Yi's flying knife reached its peak, and lightning danced on the blade.

"Controlling the power of heaven and earth, what an amazing skill." Chen Xin couldn't help but admire the power of Gu Yi's move. He also realized that he had already been locked on. But who was he? He was known as the strongest attacking Titled Douluo, Chen Xin the Sword Douluo. He wouldn't be afraid. With the Seven Kill Sword in his hand, he showed astonishing prowess, and the first and seventh spirit rings lit up successively.

Chen Xin became serious.

The two of them quickly reached their peak in momentum. Before the attack was even launched, blood traces appeared at the corners of Gu Yi's mouth and on his body.

"Go."

Gu Yi released all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in his body at once. He was confident in this strike. The flying knife was scattered with thunder, leaving a burnt smell wherever it passed. Even if he couldn't kill Chen Xin, he wouldn't let him off lightly.

Chen Xin also thrust out his long sword. With his powerful spirit power, spirit skills, and a lifetime of honed sword intent, even the black clouds in the sky were torn apart.
