Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 334 - 333: First Battle

The first match.

Both sides faced off against each other, and the surrounding spectators seemed to be infected by the tension, falling completely silent.

Apart from the two dueling, strong individuals from each country were constantly on alert.

They had to constantly protect the younger generation of their countries, for these were the geniuses of the nation.

If they encountered any mortal danger, they had to immediately rescue them.

A gust of clear wind blew through, and in an instant, Si Xiaofeng made the first move.

His left hand tightly gripped a longsword, his form moving fluidly, like a fish gliding through water.

Graceful without a trace of clouds, swinging the sword like a drunken slash.

This junior disciple of the Qilian Sect was even stronger than imagined.

Although a Sixth Grade Fruit Realm is not considered high, the power of these techniques was truly impressive.

Of course, the opinion that Sixth Grade Fruit Realm is not high is just Shen Han’s view.

In the eyes of the many spectators around, it was outstanding enough.

And the person opposite him swung a long saber and directly countered with saber Qi.

With a casual swing, the saber Qi was extremely fierce, very turbulent.

Many powerful individuals saw this scene and couldn’t help but be stunned.

They were wondering if they had such strength when they were this age...

In the field, the confrontation between the two youths finally officially began.

The previous clash of sword and saber Qi was merely an appetizer.

In a flash, Si Xiaofeng’s longsword rose again, and this time, it was not as simple as before.

With concentration, he controlled the sword Qi with his hands.

A fierce wind chased frantically.

The Qilian Sect’s most adept cultivation technique, with a wave of a hand, was sword Qi sweeping across.

In a sense, this could not be considered as sword cultivation.

Seeing this, many people from Qi Country watching were sweating on their foreheads.

But Peng Nannan resisted these attacks with just one move.

The long saber swung out, capable of devouring several fierce sword Qi.

With one move, Peng Nannan from Qi Country seemed to have a slight intention of active offense.

His figure was like thunder, arriving abruptly.

The long saber came out with the force of splitting a mountain, its momentum swift.

Si Xiaofeng intended to counter with his longsword and then use sword Qi to face the enemy.

But when the long saber was suspended in front of him, he realized it was already too late to wield his sword.

And those sword Qi couldn’t even break through the saber momentum...

The crowd held their breath, their eyes fixed on the competition field.

In this confrontation, it seemed Si Xiaofeng of Wei Country lost a bit too quickly...

Young talents from other minor countries were even more amazed at this scene.

They knew the talents of the three major countries were formidable, and they couldn’t withstand even one move.

But seeing others truly making a move, they felt they couldn’t withstand even half a move...

After a lost match, Si Xiaofeng returned to his position, and the Great Wei instructors provided him pointers.

After resting for only a quarter of an hour, the two stepped into the competition field again.

In the previous encounter, in everyone’s eyes, Si Xiaofeng should have had a slight chance.

Peng Nannan of Qi Country was also in the Sixth Grade Fruit Realm, with no disparity in their realms.

In another match, Si Xiaofeng seemed to have learned his lesson, preparing a more flexible strategy.

But this time, Peng Nannan of Qi Country directly charged with a saber.

The power of laws was imbued in the long saber, making Si Xiaofeng’s sword Qi utterly ineffective...

The cold blade was suspended over Si Xiaofeng’s neck.

The entire place fell silent, even the breaths of the surrounding spectators halted...

It took only one move, just one move.

The genius junior brother from Wei Country’s Qilian Sect just lost like that.

With a best-of-three system, there was no need for a third match at all.

Shen Han glanced at the vice-principal beside him, whose amazed expression showed that even he had failed to see the subtleties within.

Qi Country’s saber technique integrated a trace of the power of laws.

Just a trace, yet enough to impose considerable suppression within the same realm.

Of course, this was only one of the reasons for Si Xiaofeng’s loss.

Shen Han could see that his own strength was already a notch weaker than Peng Nannan.

The power of laws merely accelerated his defeat.

Back in the crowd, Si Xiaofeng looked somewhat dejected.

Upon learning he could go to the Ten Nations Grand Competition, he was somewhat excited at heart.

Having grown up in the Qilian Sect for many years, he had been surrounded by praise and compliments.

Si Xiaofeng had considered losing, but not in this way...

Around him, the instructors leading the team no longer had the time to care about him; he had already lost.

Everyone was discussing the upcoming matches.

If Qi Country’s young talents were all like Peng Nannan.

The geniuses of Great Wei might not win even one match against them...

Shen Han had considerable knowledge of the power of laws; without suppression from realm strength, the power of laws was indeed formidable.

Especially when dealing with the Scholar’s Technique, the power of laws would show even more prominence.

In his thoughts, Shen Han couldn’t help but look towards Rong Shangping beside him.

Asking the vice-principal if he could make a move, didn’t he still have a substitute qualification...

Hearing Shen Han’s words, Rong Shangping could only respond with a bitter smile and a shake of his head.

The Ten Nations Grand Competition was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Who would be willing to give up their opportunity; the so-called substitute was just a useless title.

In the field, the competition continued.

The second match was Sheng Fang from Qi Country against Pei Sulan from Yan Country.

This battle was saber technique against the Path of Music.

In a confrontation like this against the Scholar’s Technique, the power of laws inevitably had special effects.

Even if the power of laws was just a slight trace, Pei Sulan would be at a disadvantage.

The confrontation began, but Pei Sulan from Yan Country was somewhat beyond Shen Han’s expectations.

When making a move, the sound of the zither condensed into threads, a thousand strands wrapping around.

Facing Sheng Fang initially, she actually gained the upper hand.

But upon closer inspection, Shen Han understood.

Pei Sulan of Yan Country had already reached the Fifth Grade First Snow Realm in strength.

In terms of realm strength, she surpassed Sheng Fang by quite a margin.

The gap between Sixth Grade and Fifth Grade was still substantial.

Especially upon reaching Fifth Grade, people have formed their own intentions, with heart and thoughts of their own.

With this gap present, the power of laws truly had no significant suppressive effect.

Beside him, Vice-principal Rong Shangping also took the opportunity to explain to Shen Han.

Compared to Qi Country and Wei Country, Yan Country’s biggest advantage was its medicine-refining strength, which was a notch above the two countries.

The Xue Family, Yuwen Family, and Miao Family of Yan Country are prominent medicine-refining families.

With strong foundations in medicine-refining and superb medicine-refining technique.

Apart from these great families, there are many smaller medicine-refining families whose strength should not be underestimated.

This has resulted in Yan Country’s younger generation enjoying more pill resources than the young of other countries.

Basically, the young generation of Yan Country had slightly stronger realm strength.

However, in recent years, the youth of Yan Country have not only improved in realm strength.

Their cultivation technique proficiency also seemed to have made significant progress.

Comparatively, Great Wei has indeed been declining.

In the competition field, Yan Country’s Pei Sulan was ultimately the victor.

The Fifth Grade First Snow Realm indeed suppressed Sheng Fang from Qi Country.

But Sheng Fang’s loss wasn’t too embarrassing; the saber technique accompanied by the power of laws also presented many problems for Pei Sulan.
