Chapter 212: Remember This Defeat
A green glow emanated from the fan as Hu Jianyu\'s energy formed into a gust of wind.
|Swooch| |Swooch|
Two powerful wind blades suddenly shot out from the fan, slicing through the air with a sharp whistle. Yin Huiliang\'s eyes widened in astonishment as the wind effortlessly approached him.
He quickly tried to dodge, but it was too late, so with no other option, he raised his greatsword in a desperate attempt to defend himself.
The wind blades collided with the greatsword, causing a loud clash and sending sparks flying.
The force of the impact pushed Yin Huiliang back, but he managed to hold his ground.
\'What!\'
Yin Huiliang had a shocked expression on his face as he realized that the attack was stronger than he had anticipated.
He could feel the immense power behind the wind blades; his hand holding the greatsword shook from the sheer force.
\'Impossible! Hu Jianyu is only one minor realm away from me in terms of cultivation level, but how can his attack be this strong!\' Yin Huiliang thought to himself.
Despite the surprise, Yin Huiliang quickly regained his composure and prepared to counterattack. With a swift movement, he swung his greatsword towards Hu Jianyu, unleashing a powerful strike.
This time, he knew that he couldn\'t underestimate his opponent\'s strength.
A Sword Aura emanated from his blade, cutting through the air with a piercing sound.
A surprised expression crossed everyone\'s faces as they felt Yin Huiliang\'s sword Aura.
"Is this the Second Level of Sword Mastery?" whispered one of the disciples in awe.
"A-Amazing! Yin Huiliang\'s skill has truly reached new heights," exclaimed another disciple in amazement.
The force behind his strike was undeniable, causing even the most experienced disciple to marvel at his abilities.
Hu Jianyu\'s eyes widened in disbelief for a moment, but a smirk quickly appeared on his face as his fan was also imbued with a powerful aura.
The clash between Yin Huiliang\'s sword Aura and Hu Jianyu\'s fan Aura created a dazzling display of energy, leaving everyone in awe.
"Y-You! How!" Yin Huiliang was shocked at the sight of Hu Jianyu\'s fan Aura.
"Do you really think you\'re the only one who has reached the second level?" Hu Jianyu replied with a confident grin.
"It looks like I\'ve underestimated you," Yin Huiliang said, his voice filled with surprise.
The two disciples continued their intense battle, their auras clashing and creating an electrifying atmosphere that captivated everyone watching.
"Wow, they are moving so fast!" exclaimed Su Bingxin as she watched the fight take place on the arena.
She was also close to reaching the first level of sword aura, and witnessing the sword aura surrounding Hu Jianyu and Yin Huiliang only fueled her determination to attain it.
As the battle raged on, the air crackled, and the disciples were spellbound by the sheer power and skill displayed by both of them.
"So this is the strength of the top second-rank outer disciples."
"Now we can understand why they are so close to ranking up to a first-rank disciple."
"If they are this strong when only being second-rank disciples, I can\'t imagine how strong the first-rank outer disciples are."
Many of the disciples watching the battle were in awe, realizing the immense potential that Hu Jianyu and Yin Huiliang possessed.
"Both of them are good, but they are far from becoming first-rank disciples," Yin Yun said.
"Are first-rank disciples stronger?" Chen Tian couldn\'t help but ask.
"Yes, even the weakest first-rank outer disciple is a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, not to mention that the weakest have at least a sword aura at the third level. As for their law mastery, I shouldn\'t talk about it, but it is said that they have already reached 40% understanding," Yin Yun explained.
Hearing Yin Yun\'s words, Su Bingxin was shocked.
"Do you think Yin Huiliang has a great chance of winning this fight?" Yin Yun asked, wanting Chen Tian\'s opinion on this matter.
"He will lose," Chen Tian responded bluntly.
"Oh, why do you think so?" Yin Yun asked curiously. Chen Tian sighed and replied, "That guy, Hu Jianyu, still hasn\'t used his full strength yet."
Yin Yun narrowed her eyes as she tried to process Chen Tian\'s statement. She had thought Yin Huiliang had a good chance of winning, considering his impressive strength. However, Chen Tian\'s revelation about Hu Jianyu hiding his strength made her doubt her previous assumptions.
As she pondered over this new information, a sudden turn of events occurred on the stage.

Breathing heavily, Yin Huiliang\'s Qi erupted from his body, causing a great amount of earth Qi to rise into the air.
Channeling the earth element through his greatsword, infusing each strike with the weight and force of a mountain\'s impact.
This technique was made to crush the defense of his opponent, leaving them vulnerable and unable to retaliate.
"Mountain Splitter!!"
The crowd gasped in awe as they watched Yin Huiliang use this technique, as this technique was considered a Grade 2 Top-Notch Technique, one level away from becoming a Grade 3 technique, which is used by Core Formation Realm cultivators.
"Yin Huiliang is really serious about winning!"
"Brother Hu Jianyu, be careful!"
The swing of Yin Huiliang\'s greatsword exhibited incredible strength and precision.
Hu Jianyu\'s eyes widened at the surprise attack.
\'Tskk damn bastard!\' Hu Jianyu cursed inwardly as he quickly reacted to raise his own defense, summoning a shield of swirling wind qi to protect himself.
|BAMM|
The clash of the two opposing forces created a powerful surge of energy that rippled through the stage, causing the ground to tremble beneath their feet.
As the dust settled, all the disciples had sharp expressions on their faces as Hu Jianyu stood tall. His shield was in bad condition, with a few cracks on it, but it was still holding strong.
Hu Jianyu had a terrifying expression on his face as he realized the true extent of this attack. If he hadn\'t reacted quickly and created a shield using all his Wind Law understanding, he would have really been in bad condition.
Who would have known that his opponent had gotten his hand on a Top-Notch Grade 2 technique?
\'So that\'s why that bastard was so confident,\' Hu Jianyu thought to himself.
Yin Huiliang\'s eyes opened wide in shock as he witnessed Hu Jianyu\'s shield withstand the powerful attack.
He couldn\'t believe that Hu Jianyu had managed to defend himself against such a formidable technique.
This revelation made Yin Huiliang\'s sweat drip down his forehead as he realized that his trump card didn\'t work as intended.
"You piece of trash!!!!"
|BOOOMMM|
A terrifying energy erupted from Hu Jianyu. Yin Huiliang was thrown backward; a more shocked expression appeared on his face, and not only him, as most disciples felt the strength of Hu Jianyu rising from the 8th Stage of the Meridian Opening Realm to the 10th stage, which was also known as the peak of the Meridian Realm.
"Y-You\'ve been hiding your strength!" Yin Huiliang stammered, his voice filled with disbelief.
The realization hit him like a tidal wave, as he understood that he was in big trouble.
"A piece of trash like you dare challenge me?" Hu Jianyu sneered, his newfound power radiating from him with a terrifying force.
With a speed that seemed impossible, Hu Jianyu closed the distance between them in an instant. Yin Huiliang\'s eyes widened in fear, realizing that he couldn\'t react.
A powerful attack was coming his way.
Yin Huiliang\'s only hope for survival was to use his Earth element to defend.
He quickly activated his own shield, but it shattered upon impact.
|PAMM|
Hu Jianyu\'s palm was like a giant hammer, descending upon Yin Huiliang with unstoppable force.
The impact was bone-shattering, sending Yin Huiliang flying through the air and crashing against the end of the stage.
Pain seared through his body as he struggled to regain his senses.
Before he could recover, Hu Jianyu appeared before him, a wicked smile on his face.
Hu Jianyu\'s right foot lifted off the ground and pressed against the head of Yin Huiliang. The force was so immense that Yin Huiliang\'s head could snap back, causing excruciating pain.
Hu Jianyu\'s smile only grew wider as he exerted more pressure.
He really wanted to kill that piece of trash under his foot.
The crowd gasped in horror, unable to comprehend the brutality of the attack.
"Stop!" The Elder knew that he had to intervene before things escalated any further.
The Elder\'s stern voice echoed through the air, commanding Hu Jianyu to stop.
Hu Jianyu reluctantly stepped back, his face contorted with anger and frustration.
Yin Huiliang\'s vision blurred as darkness crept at the edges, and he realized that he had lost.
Before he lost consciousness, Hu Jianyu crouched near his face and whispered,
"Remember this defeat. Yin Huiliang, I will take care of your girlfriend; her bed skills are top-notch, and I still can\'t forget her body pressed against mine. Maybe I will let you watch as I make her scream my name."
With a sinister smile, he rose back to his feet and walked away, leaving Yin Huiliang lying on the ground, defeated and broken.
Feeling that his body was numb and his heart heavy with despair, Yin Huiliang lost consciousness as darkness enveloped him.
The words echoed in his mind, tormenting him even in unconsciousness.
