Chapter 59: How is this possible?
For swordsmen, close combat is naturally what they are best at. And for those who are used to using weapons like whips, it would be a nightmare once a swordsman gets close to them.
Seeing Shen Tian's actions, Chen Li's face changed slightly. The long whip in his hand swung out a series of whip shadows, shattering the sword energy. The long whip was like a ferocious poisonous snake, attacking every corner of Shen Tian's body quickly, showing its viciousness and cruelty.
Shen Tian swung his sword slightly and blocked the whips one by one, but his body was slowly forced back by Chen Li.
"Shen Tian, I know you have high attack power and strong strength, but you can't get close to me at all. Facing my soft but powerful long whip, your long sword is completely useless."
Chen Li smiled proudly. In fact, every weapon has certain restraints. For example, a sword would be somewhat hindered when encountering soft weapons such as a long whip or a whisk.
Of course, nothing is absolute. When a person has profound attainments in swordplay, no weapon can restrain him
Seeing this scene, the four Dou Shi from Xuan Class 4 were ecstatic, especially the Five-Star Dou Shi who was in the lead, who had a smug smile on his face.
This was the reason why he agreed to let Chen Li fight. As a water-attribute practitioner with a long whip, it might be a little difficult for him to win, but it would be more than enough to entangle Shen Tian and make him sick.
"Shen Tian, come on!" Outside the field, Xiao Yu murmured to herself, a look of worry appearing on her pretty face.
"You are quite confident. Well, I won't hide my incompetence any more. Let's finish it as soon as possible. I am a little tired of playing with you. Let me show you a new technique I have learned."
Shen Tian smiled gently, the Soaring Rainbow Sword in his hand shone brightly with a cold light. Shen Tian's eyes became focused, looking at the whip shadow that was swooping towards him like a poisonous snake, he held the long sword horizontally and slashed straight out.
This sword seemed so ordinary.
At the tip of the sword, a golden sword energy condensed into a long thin thread and slashed towards the whip shadow.
Swish!
The thin thread and the long whip intersected with each other, making a slight sound. The long whip, which had previously intersected with the Soaring Rainbow Sword without any damage, was actually cut directly into two pieces.
The broken whip fell to the ground. Chen Li was holding the broken whip in his hand, his face full of astonishment.
"How is this possible?" Chen Li stood there in disbelief.
"Nothing is impossible." Shen Tian smiled slightly and slashed out with the sword in his hand again.
"Practice the sword into threads!" The golden sword energy condensed into thin threads and cut directly towards Chen Li.
"Mysterious Water Barrier!" Seeing this, Chen Li's face changed drastically, and his Dou Qi circulated, forming a huge water wall in front of him.
The thin threads attacked and easily cut the water wall that Chen Li had used all his strength into two halves. The water immediately flowed all over the ground. At the same time, the thin threads continued to tear directly the Dou Qi gauze on Chen Li's body and attacked him.
Chen Li suddenly let out a wail, and a huge wound appeared on his body, with blood gushing out of it.
"Chen Li!" The remaining four Dou Shi of Xuan Class 4 were shocked. They didn't expect that Chen Li, who originally had some advantages, would be defeated in just the blink of an eye. This scene was truly unexpected.
"Don't panic, he's fine, I've already stopped." Shen Tian spoke calmly with an indifferent expression. The inspiration for practicing sword technique into silk threads came from the One Sword Across the Worlds, which he later realized.
The principle of 'One Sword Across Worlds' is to use the inner sword to strike the outer sword against each other, bursting out sharp and piercing sword energy to hurt the enemy. Such sword energy is extremely condensed and extremely powerful, and it can be said that nothing can be broken.
Inspired by this, Shen Tian tried to compress the sword energy himself. After some research, he realized that although the sword energy he had now could be turned into silk, its power of penetration was equally terrifying and unimaginable.
If he hadn't shown mercy in that attack just now, the power of the sword would have been enough to tear Chen Li in half.
Unlike Chen Li now, although he is bleeding profusely, his internal organs are not damaged. As long as he applies healing medicine and stops the bleeding, there will be no danger.
After all, this is an academy after all, and it is not good to be too cruel and merciless.
These people from Xuan Class 4 might be young and inexperienced, not considering the consequences when they acted rashly, but they were measured when they acted.
He took the initiative to fight today, firstly to vent Zhang Yun's anger, and secondly to prove himself and avoid future troubles, killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and the people in the Xuan Class were undoubtedly the chicken.
Adults usually do things with a purpose, and he is no exception.
"Condensing the invisible sword energy into tangible filaments, its cutting ability has increased several times. This kid's control over energy condensation has reached an extremely high level. He is truly a genius."
The old man in the pavilion spoke softly with a hint of surprise on his face. Shen Tian was the first person he had seen who could condense energy to such a level at the realm of Dou Zhe.
"These kids from the Xuan Class 4 are really stupid. They came to cause trouble for Shen Tian just by being instigated by someone. I'm afraid they will be defeated miserably today."
