Martial Arts Overlord-Chapter 642 - 640: Luo Feng vs. Ye Siyi

"Just two moves. Is that all the skill you have?"

Luo Feng slid his Rage Flame Knife back into its sheath, giving Yi Wuxue a glance.

PFFT!

Hearing this, Yi Wuxue couldn’t suppress the boiling Qi and blood in his chest anymore, spraying out another mouthful of fresh blood, his eyes fixed deadly on Luo Feng.

The Sky Mountain steward standing aside swallowed and announced loudly, "The duel is over! Luo Feng wins, gaining two points!"

ROAR!

As his words fell, the entire square erupted in a wave of fervent cheers. All eyes were on Luo Feng, filled with jealousy, shock, but mostly admiration.

"So strong! Yi Wuxue gave it his all, yet he only lasted two moves before falling to Luo Feng."

"That’s not surprising. Luo Feng is a prodigy who has comprehended Grand Momentum, not to mention his cultivation has already reached the Third Stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. In every aspect, he far surpasses Yi Wuxue."

"With Luo Feng’s victory, the final round of the competition will be a climactic duel between him and Ye Siyi."

"Who do you think has the upper hand?"

"If it were earlier, I would definitely choose Ye Siyi. But now, it’s hard to say..."

The crowd buzzed with discussion. At this moment, in the hearts of many martial artists of his generation, Luo Feng was both mysterious and powerful, his popularity soaring to its peak.

He had placed first in both rounds of assessment. Then, he successively defeated Wu Tong, Liu Ling, Xie Xuantong, and others. Even Yi Wuxue, ranked second among the top ten young experts, was no match for him, with Luo Feng winning decisively.

Every single one of these accomplishments could be described as miraculous.

At this moment, the crowd didn’t know how to express the shock in their hearts.

Several Golden Palace elders were also unsettled.

Lan Qing, an elder of Jade Hall, looked at Luo Feng, then turned her gaze to Shui Linglong. A faint smile touched her red lips as she slowly said, "Shui Linglong, Luo Feng has unexpectedly reached the Third Stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. His talent truly stands out. Were you aware of this when you insisted on recruiting him as an Inner Sect Disciple?"

The other Golden Palace elders also turned their gazes towards Shui Linglong.

They all now felt a hint of regret in their hearts for not choosing Luo Feng initially.

Not yet sixteen, already at the Third Stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, and had comprehended Grand Momentum. Luo Feng’s potential could only be described as terrifying.

In three months, if Luo Feng were to win the life-and-death duel against Yi Tian, Linglong Hall would undoubtedly gain a supreme genius.

The only thing that offered the Golden Palace elders some comfort was that even for Luo Feng, the chances of defeating Yi Tian in just three months were still slim.

Shui Linglong’s slightly shocked gaze moved away from Luo Feng, and she shook her head. "I just found out about this too."

Among all present, only the elder of Sky Sword Pavilion and Xue Wu Qing had not spoken.

After announcing the duel’s result, the Sky Mountain steward looked at Luo Feng. "Luo Feng, congratulations. Your current score is eighteen points, tied with Ye Siyi."

Subtly, his tone revealed a hint of respect.

With Luo Feng’s age and strength, if all went well, his future accomplishments would far surpass his own.

Luo Feng nodded in thanks, then turned and walked off the dueling platform.

Yi Wuxue stood dumbfounded for a moment, then dejectedly walked off as well.

Losing to Ye Siyi, although he was annoyed in his heart, was something he could still accept.

But losing to the relatively unknown Luo Feng was a huge blow to him.

With the duel between Luo Feng and Yi Wuxue concluded, the matches on the other dueling platforms were still ongoing.

With only the final round remaining, everyone wanted to earn more points and secure a good ranking. They unleashed their hidden trump cards and fought with all their might, making the matches incredibly exciting.

Upon the conclusion of the tenth round, Luo Feng and Ye Siyi had each won nine consecutive matches, accumulating eighteen points.

Blood Rain Flying Flower Yi Wuxue had won seven matches, earning fourteen points, ranking him behind the two.

Black-faced Killer Xie Xuantong had won six matches, earning twelve points.

Heavenly Jade Swordsman Liu Changfeng had won five matches, earning ten points.

Next in order were Heavenly Fragrant Woman He Qin, Heart Locking Double Swords Liu Ling, Han Xing, Bing Ruolan, and Broken Thought Saber Shi Zhong.

The last one was ’Overturning River Python’ Wu Tong. So far, he had not won a single match, had zero points, and was destined to be eliminated from the Martial Champion rankings.

With only the final round left, the blue-robed steward in charge of the assessment, seeing it was still early, announced an hour’s break before the competition would resume.

Everyone wanted to persevere to the end. They took pills and closed their eyes to recuperate.

In the final round, his opponent would be Ye Siyi. Luo Feng didn’t dare to be careless. He swallowed two Rejuvenation Clear Pills to recover his expended Yuan Qi.

The people in the square were now excitedly discussing the duels that had just occurred.

Without a doubt, the most eye-catching disciple of this year’s twelve Golden Palaces was Luo Feng.

From the first round of assessment, Luo Feng had advanced triumphantly, leaving others far behind. He successively defeated several of the top ten young experts. His strength could only be described as terrifying.

Everyone was discussing who, between Luo Feng and Ye Siyi, would win their duel an hour later. Who would replace last year’s Ling Qingwu, have their name inscribed on the first layer of the Martial Champion rankings, and capture everyone’s attention.

Ye Siyi, as the foremost of the top ten young experts, coupled with her exquisite and stunning beauty, was truly a ’favored daughter of heaven.’ She enjoyed immense popularity among the male disciples of the various academies.

Surprisingly, Luo Feng also had numerous supporters at this moment, mostly female disciples from the various academies. The two factions argued heatedly, neither willing to concede.

In the spectator stands, Luo Xiao turned to his parents and said excitedly, "Father, Mother, Second Brother is going to compete for first place on the Martial Champion rankings!"

Luotian nodded, his face filled with emotion. Gazing at Luo Feng, who was meditating in Sky Feather Square, he said, "I originally thought he was just saying it. I didn’t expect Feng Er to actually reach this point."

Yang Qing shot Luotian a look and chided, "Look at you, having so little faith in your own son."

Hearing this, Luotian looked at Yang Qing and chuckled, "When Feng Er was dueling Xie Xuantong just now, you were clutching my hand tightly, constantly muttering, ’He mustn’t lose, he mustn’t lose...’"

Yang Qing’s pretty face flushed red. Wordlessly, she reached out and pinched Luotian hard on the waist.

Luo Xiao chuckled awkwardly and quickly looked away, avoiding the scene he wasn’t supposed to see.

About an hour later, the green-robed steward, seeing the ten contestants looking refreshed and full of Jing Qi Shen, immediately announced the start of the eleventh round of matches.

"First dueling platform: Yi Wuxue versus Han Xing."

"Second dueling platform: Bing Ruolan versus Liu Changfeng."

"Third dueling platform: Shi Zhong versus He Qin."

"Fourth dueling platform: Wu Tong versus Liu Ling."

"Fifth dueling platform: Luo Feng versus Ye Siyi!"

ROAR!

As the final word fell, the atmosphere in the entire Sky Feather Square instantly erupted.

The duel between Luo Feng and Ye Siyi, which would decide this year’s Martial Champion, was undoubtedly the pinnacle battle of the day, the most anticipated one!

"Sister..."

Ye Xiaoshuang’s bright eyes fell on Luo Feng, then shifted back to Ye Siyi. Her petite eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She deeply hoped Ye Siyi would win and become the Martial Champion, yet she also didn’t want Luo Feng to be defeated. She stood there, conflicted, wringing her small hands.

Ye Siyi smiled gently, ruffling Ye Xiaoshuang’s small head. "Silly girl," she said, "Win or lose, I want this fight with Luo Feng."

With that, she turned and walked towards the fifth dueling platform.

"Luo Feng!"

"Luo Feng!"

"Luo Feng!"

Waves of shouts came from the direction of the four major academies in the spectator stands.

All the disciples from the four major academies watched Luo Feng with excitement, cheering him on, their eyes filled with fervent enthusiasm.

Luo Feng, having defeated Yi Wuxue and risen strongly, was regarded as an idol by the disciples of the four major academies.

Even the disciples of Wanluo School, which had always been at odds with Purple Sun School, showed expressions of awe.

Luo Feng nodded in acknowledgment. Taking a deep breath, he executed Teng Dragon’s Step, appearing thirty paces in front of Ye Siyi.

"I guessed correctly. The one competing with me for the Martial Champion title in the end is indeed you."

Ye Siyi gazed at Luo Feng, her beautiful eyes like clear autumn pools, and said with a touch of emotion, "I truly didn’t expect you to have reached the Third Stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. If you defeat me, you will be this year’s Martial Champion."

Luo Feng gave a light smile, looked into Ye Siyi’s eyes, and said, "I’m afraid... it won’t be that easy, will it?"

Ye Siyi pursed her red lips, a smile gracing her face, and slowly drew her sword.

"You’ve reached the Third Stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm; your cultivation indeed surpasses mine. However, I also need to use Sky Mountain’s core formation to cultivate and break through to the next realm. Therefore, I will not yield the position of Martial Champion so easily."

Ye Siyi’s dress fluttered. Her beautiful eyes, bright and captivating like rippling spring water, held a strong confidence that belied her calm tone.

Luo Feng could feel the sharp aura radiating from her and did not dare to underestimate her. He pulled out his Rage Flame Knife and said seriously, "I also need to use the core formation to cultivate."

Ye Siyi nodded slightly. "In that case, let’s determine the winner based on our strength. Luo Feng, be careful!"

Ye Siyi stood quietly. Suddenly, her calm eyes revealed a biting sharpness. A keen aura permeated the entire dueling platform, making the air feel several degrees colder.

This chill was not the coldness of He Qin’s Sword Intent, but rather a sharpness pushed to its extreme, instilling a sense of crisis deep within one’s heart.

"Flying Leaf Without Shadow!"

The moment she attacked, Ye Siyi seemed to transform. Her calm temperament became swift and decisive, like an unsheathed treasured sword, exuding an unspoken sharpness.

SWISH!

A sword light flashed. A distorted streak of Sword Qi snaked towards Luo Feng, twisting and turning nine times, its trajectory impossible to discern.

Luo Feng stood his ground, his gaze focused. The Yuan Qi within him surged endlessly, causing the airflow within three feet to swirl with its circulation, forming its own cycle. A vast and mighty aura emanated from his body, piercing directly into people’s hearts, confronting Ye Siyi’s head-on.

"Slash!"

Only when the distorted Sword Qi was five paces before him did Luo Feng make his move.

Yuan Qi surged. The Rage Flame Knife vanished from sight, and a crimson blade light, appearing slow yet moving with incredible speed, swept downwards with the force of astonishing thunder, blanketing everything.

In the spectator stands, everyone held their breath, their eyes wide.

The auras the two of them released, in just three bursts, were already causing the space in this area to congeal inch by inch. When they finally made their moves, an imposing presence that seemed to command the winds and clouds swept across the entire Sky Feather Square. Their strength could only be described with the word ’terrifying.’

Yi Wuxue, who was currently fighting on another platform, turned ashen. How could he not realize by now that neither Ye Siyi nor Luo Feng had used their full strength when they fought him!

CLANG!

Under the tense gaze of the crowd, the Sword Qi and blade light met in mid-air.

Instantly, a shockwave of Yuan Qi erupted in layers, and countless large cracks spiderwebbed across the dueling platform.

Ye Siyi’s sword strike was nullified. Unconcerned, she was about to launch her second attack. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

However, Luo Feng was faster than her.

"Mad Thunder Overturning Sky!"

Facing Ye Siyi, Luo Feng also unleashed his full power. He stepped forward, and a stunning blade light bloomed in the air.

CRACKLE!

A clap of thunder exploded. The fierce blade light, like lightning striking down from the nine heavens, surged towards Ye Siyi.
