Ling Chu glanced at Hannya but the latter did not say anything even when Rihan returned to his seat. He turned his gaze away and swivelled his head at the other clan members, only to realize something just by the confident look on their faces. He immediately understood that unlike the other sects who would normally celebrate their victory, this clan treats victory as something normal like breathing.
Ling Chu's thoughts were actually not far from the truth, since for Hannya this tournament is like a stage to show their clans dominance.
The reason why he had Rihan enter the tournament is to revive his wife and spread the clans name, it is a quest that has to be completed to nail their roots to the ground.
Showing not just Rihan's talent in Cultivation is just the basic, revealing a bit of Rihan's talent by showing his skills will give a greater impact instead.
Fighting is just like an act, and Rihan is the actor. Rihan who has great advantage in cultivation needs to create a situation where the audience would be curious about what will happen.
By suppressing Rihan's cultivation to the same level as his opponent created the situation where everyone would sway from their mindset where Rihan can win easily, which in turn would attract viewer's since they would be curious about what will happen.
Compared to ending the battle in a few seconds, doing something peculiar would leave a long-lasting impression.
Now that Rihan has established his talent in both cultivation and skills, it is now time for him to establish his dominance.
After Rihan's Match, multiple matches followed up however their performances just couldn't match up with the blood boiling battle from earlier.
The crowd unconciously change their standards when it comes to battle, lousy battles can no longer ignited excitement in their hearts.
Only when the representative from 4 major sects could attract their attention now aside from Rihan, though there were no suspense in their battle everyone still loves their show of dominance against their opponents.
""Sword Discourse Arena Number Seven, sixth match. Blue Wind Imperial Family's Fen Juechen —— versus —— Thunderbolt Lightning Pavilion's Lei Zhentian!"
When the audience heard the representative for next battle is from Blue Wind Imperial Family, their attention was caught.
Fen Juechen's eyes sharpened as he stood from his seat.
"The crowd is expecting alot from you Juechen, don't let them down."
Rihan's words stopped his footsteps for awhile, he only wave his hand in the air, "Don't worry, I'm not gonna disappoint them... Especially you." The latter part of his sentence was never spoken as it just remained in his thoughts.
Fen Juechen's first opponent was already standing in front of him. With an incomparably stout body, he was only twenty years old but looked like a buff forty year old man. The weapons in his hands were two large round hammers.
With a wave of his hand a single-edge blade appeared; which is the signature weapon of a burning heaven clan members.
Seeing that his opponent was Fen Juechen, Lei Zhentian was evidently startled for a moment, and then he frowned. "I didn't expect that my first opponent today was actually you. I don't know if you're as talented is as good as your comrade."
"Then that will depend if you have the ability to find out more about me." Fen Juechen said indifferently.
Without saying anything more Zhentian swung his twin hammers, creating two fierce and abnormal waves of wind which struck directly towards Fen Juechen's chest.
Lei Zhentian's Twin Thunderbolt Hammers weighed four hundred kilos each, but in his hands, they were incomparably light and nimble, and the roaring of the wind brought by the swings were especially deep and heavy.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Six incomparably fierce hammer strikes were entirely dodged by Fen Juechen. Those concentrated banging sounds were completely unlike the sound of impact between a heavy hammer and a human body and were more like the sound of a heavy hammer smashing onto air. When these six blows landed, shocked surfaced from Lei Zhentian's expression. With the Twin Thunderbolt Hammers that weighed a total of eight hundred kilos together, and adding his innate profound strength should be fast enough yet his opponents completely Dodge them.
"It seems like I wouldn't even need to use a weapon against you." Fen Juechen sheated his weapon as he disappeared in front of Zhentian.
Seeing Juechen vanish, Lei Zhentian's gaze darkened. The profound energy in his entire body began to flow wildly and just like a blazing wheel of fire, his body began to spin at high speed. Like a fierce hurricane, his Twin Thunderbolt Hammers sucked the air around as it swirled around him.
"Spinning might protect you from opponents in the ground however.." Juechen's voice resounded above Zhentian, clenching his hand into a fist while circulating his profound energy, flame covered his hands.. he appeared above Zhentian as he smashed his head to the ground.
With a sizzling sound, the flame fist exploded as it made contact with the Zhentian, causing a big portion of the floor to turn crisp black. As for Fen Juechen, he had already covered himself with profound energy to form as a barrier.
The stage was covered with dust, it took a few minutes until the dust dispersed, revealing Juechen who's indifferently walking out the stage, and Zhentian who's now laying unconscious with his head smashed to the ground.
"Your move is like a storm, it's weakness is always the eye."
The people who paid attention to this match, who were expecting a great battle were dumbfounded.
The people from different sects were stunned for a long time, it wasn't until Zhentian bled a huge pool on the stage that everyone recovered from stupor.
Lei Zhentian, had actually lost in the hands of a disciple from Blue Wind Imperial Family.
A result like this, could only be described 'incredible'.
"Remember, Blue Wind Imperial Family isn't all about Rihan. Keep that in mind." Juechen's words resounded as he left.
Two monster's coming from 1 team.
