Chapter 512: Chapter 0507: Defeated by Ye Chengfeng Again

After three consecutive battles, Ye Chengfeng didn’t rest. His fighting spirit grew even more intense, and he issued a challenge to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was the undefeated champion of the previous grand competition, so compared to Yunhai Zhen, Ye Chengfeng wanted to defeat Chen Yu even more.

Jiang Chen, who hadn’t yet stepped down from the stage, was immediately stunned.

Ye Chengfeng, having just secured a dazzling victory and gained fame by defeating him, surprisingly did not stop. Instead, he continued to issue challenges.

The key point was that Ye Chengfeng’s challenger was Chen Yu, which made Jiang Chen feel anxious, uncertain whether Ye Chengfeng had any chance of winning.

Otherwise, the reputation Ye Chengfeng had just built would inadvertently contribute to Chen Yu’s glory.

“Ye Chengfeng actually issued another challenge to Chen Yu. He’s really like a sharp, unstoppable sword!”

“Although Chen Yu defeated Lv Guangliang, who was ranked seventh in the competition before the last, Ye Chengfeng has defeated Jiang Chen, who was ranked third. The gap is clear. Chen Yu shouldn’t accept the challenge, should he?”

“It’s not so certain. Ye Chengfeng is too arrogant, fighting three battles in a row and then challenging Chen Yu. I think Chen Yu will accept and take this opportunity to defeat Ye Chengfeng and make a name for himself!”

The surrounding crowd buzzed with speculation.

“Alright, let’s spar then!”

Chen Yu readily agreed.

“See, I told you Chen Yu would definitely accept the challenge, but even if Ye Chengfeng is worn out, the possibility of Chen Yu winning is still very low.”

The man who prided himself on his accuracy exclaimed in surprise, then continued to comment.

However, Chen Yu’s next words slapped his face.

“I accept your challenge, but let’s wait until you’ve recovered to your best condition,” he said.

Chen Yu didn’t step onto the stage.

Upon hearing this, the crowd was even more astonished. Many secretly cursed Chen Yu for being foolish — to forsake such an advantageous opportunity in order to fight Ye Chengfeng fairly.

“I’ve had a few fights, but I haven’t expended much True Yuan.”

On the stage, Ye Chengfeng gave a slight smile.

His swordsmanship tended to be extreme, often ending battles with just a few strikes.

But since Chen Yu wouldn’t get on the stage, Ye Chengfeng could only step down and take an Elixir. Sitting cross-legged, he began to meditate. In fact, he had sustained some injuries in the battle against Jiang Chen.

At this time, everyone was filled with anticipation for the upcoming battle between Ye Chengfeng and Chen Yu. The other competitors engaging in sparring matches seemed to be merely setting the stage for the showdown.

“That’s fine. If such an overconfident man loses to Ye Chengfeng, that’s also acceptable.”

Yun Yingwu said indifferently.

He knew that no matter who won or lost between Ye Chengfeng and Chen Yu, Yunhai Zhen would be the next challenger.

By then, all the fame would ultimately return to Yunyang Academy.

Although he did not wish for Yunhai Zhen to become too famous, at the moment, there was no other suitable candidate.

After two sparring matches, Ye Chengfeng suddenly stood up. His piercing Sword Intent shot straight into the sky, startling everyone.

Whoosh!

Ye Chengfeng drew his treasured sword and flew above the stage.

Similarly, Chen Yu flew onto the stage, nodding at Ye Chengfeng before activating his Secret Pattern Demon Body and charging towards him.

In the previous grand competition, he had fought Ye Chengfeng and knew him to some extent.

Whoosh!

As Chen Yu closed in, Ye Chengfeng retreated.

When he reached the edge of the stage, he slashed with his sword, sending a shining white blade of light soaring forward.

“Demon Scale Armor.”

Chen Yu activated the third Demonic Pattern, and a dark figure took shape, forming an armor.

He raised his arms and blocked Ye Chengfeng’s strike with both hands.

Boom!

The sword light dissipated, and Chen Yu remained unscathed except for some shattering on the armor on his palms.

This scene caused Ye Chengfeng’s pupils to shrink, and the color of the crowd’s faces subtly changed.

Previously, Ye Chengfeng was too dominant. So as soon as Chen Yu appeared, he opted to withstand the strike directly, intimidating the opponent and swaying his confidence.

After blocking the strike, Chen Yu’s speed exploded as he wielded the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, slashing out a torrent of demonic sword energy.

Zing!

Ye Chengfeng leaped up, darting to another spot.

Chen Yu’s Devil Wind Sword Technique was fierce and, coupled with the explosive properties of the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, covered a wide attack range.

Ye Chengfeng’s movements were graceful and swift. Although he was surrounded by walls of Sword Qi, they shattered under Chen Yu’s explosive assaults.

“The second strike.”

After another retreat, Ye Chengfeng struck again.

He knew he would need at least the fourth strike to defeat Chen Yu.

However, to his surprise, Chen Yu actively faced his second strike.

Demonic Qi Slash!

Chen Yu conjured a continuous barrage of Sword Qi gales and clashed against Ye Chengfeng’s second strike.

His attack was naturally not as strong as Ye Chengfeng’s second strike, but with the Demon Scale Armor and Secret Pattern Demon Body, Chen Yu was unharmed.

After blocking the attack, Chen Yu continued the pursuit, not pausing with the Demon Flood Dragon Sword in hand.

“The Devil Wind Sword Technique practiced by Junior Brother has a unique correspondence with Ye Chengfeng’s ‘Unified Sword Technique.'”

Down below, Yuan Chen suddenly spoke.

“Unified Sword Technique”: Simplify the complex, consolidate sword moves into one, each succeeding strike stronger than the one before it.

“Devil Wind Sword Technique”: Condense sword force and unceasingly stack its momentum without interruption.

Of course, in terms of level and difficulty of cultivation, the “Unified Sword Technique” was superior.

Ye Chengfeng on the stage also noticed this point.

He didn’t expect Chen Yu to choose a head-on collision with him this time.

He wasn’t worried about this approach.

“The third strike.”

Ye Chengfeng struck once again.

Although Chen Yu’s sword technique was somewhat similar to his, it was easier to disrupt, just like now, with his third strike — could Chen Yu really block it head-on?

If not, Chen Yu’s sword technique would be broken, and he would be back to square one, facing Ye Chengfeng at his peak.

“Chen Yu is taking too many risks.”

Some of the onlookers shook their heads.

Boom!

The two clashed once more, erupting in an explosive noise.

But, as the dust settled, Chen Yu inside was still brandishing his sword, attacking Ye Chengfeng.

Only now, his Demon Scale Armor was shattered and tattered, barely maintaining a few scale armors.

“Is this the defensive power of the ‘Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record’? Truly astonishing.”

Sky Star Academy’s Fu Sanguang fixed his gaze on Chen Yu, looking quite intrigued.

“It seems it’s not so easy to interrupt.”

Ye Chengfeng’s eyebrows tightened as a layer of crystalline swords burst forth from within him, transforming into a shield on his left side.

Boom!

Chen Yu’s Sword Qi swept over and exploded but was blocked by the crystal shield.

“The next part will be crucial in determining the victor.”

The Sword Intent surrounding Ye Chengfeng grew even more intense, exuding an edge that was unmatched in sharpness, unstoppable in momentum.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

He moved even faster, each leap akin to an arrow shot from its bow.

Then came Ye Chengfeng’s fourth sword strike.

From this point, the outcome of the match would soon be approached.

“Demon Scale Shield.”

Chen Yu activated the second Demon Pattern, from which a layer of black Demon Scales emerged, forming a protective shield around him.

Yet he himself continued to swing his sword, his violent black sword light surging towards the towering pillar of Sword Qi.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The black Sword Qi constantly shattered, while the crystalline white sword light cleaved down, landing on the Demon Scale Shield.

An offense and a defense, the two forces countered and weakened each other.

Boom!

At one moment, the crystalline white sword light was pulverized by Chen Yu, and the Demon Scale Shield dissipated as well.

Compared to the last time, Chen Yu bore the fourth sword strike and was wounded, and it was this fourth strike that decided the victory.

Boom!

On Chen Yu’s body, sword momentum merged with demonic might, a terrifying oppression dominating the surroundings.

With each sword strike from Ye Chengfeng that he blocked, he seemed to grow even sharper, his incomparable aura now affecting Ye Chengfeng’s mindset.

In Ye Chengfeng’s eyes, it wasn’t just his own sword that was getting stronger, Chen Yu was too!

“He blocked it.”

“These two are too strong.”

The audience below was deeply drawn into this battle.

At that moment, Ye Chengfeng’s fifth sword strike arrived.

Chen Yu summoned the Blood Crystal Flame, tossing out a crimson bloom.

Boom!

The blood-red, lustrous flame blossomed into a blaze of glory, countering Ye Chengfeng’s fifth sword.

Afterwards, Chen Yu’s Sword Dao attack launched.

After both sides weakened, Chen Yu, relying on his formidable defensive power, blocked Ye Chengfeng’s fifth sword strike.

“The sixth sword is coming next, heavens, I’ve never seen Ye Chengfeng’s sixth sword.”

“The flames that Chen Yu just unleashed, that was the Blood Crystal Flame, wasn’t it?”

On the arena, Ye Chengfeng, realizing that Chen Yu kept blocking his sword strikes and was growing more formidable, was no longer as calm as before.

In fact, Chen Yu could have used the “Red Flood Dragon Bloodline” from the beginning to defeat Ye Chengfeng.

But right now, Chen Yu did not want to expose this, as these people all recognized him and could clearly tell his current bloodline was completely different from before.

Moreover, Ye Chengfeng was a good opponent, suitable for tempering the Devil Wind Sword Technique.

The sixth sword!

Sky Flying Sword Slash!

Ye Chengfeng and Chen Yu, both struck with their swords simultaneously!

The white sword light, like a column holding up the sky, rushed towards Chen Yu.

Chen Yu’s sword slash, like a fierce demon diving from the sky, collided with the white sword column.

Boom!

Black and white lights burst apart, mingled with countless Sword Qi, soaring to the sky, almost enveloping the entire arena, obliterating the figures of Chen Yu and Ye Chengfeng.

The white side quickly took advantage, gradually driving away the darkness.

“Be defeated.”

Chen Yu stimulated the first Demon Pattern on his right arm, his heart “thumping” into a state of explosion, employing the Demon Extinguishing Claw.

At the same time, he mobilized the Blood Crystal Flame, amplifying the might of this combat technique.

Boom!

A dark-red flame, roaring forth, piercing through the white sword light, striking towards Ye Chengfeng on the other side.

Ye Chengfeng was just about to flee.

Under the control of Chen Yu and Flame Spirit, the Blood Crystal Flame ignited and pulsed, causing the Demon Extinguishing Claw to explosively shatter.

Boom!

The black and red flames exploded, dispersing the white sword light.

At the same time, Ye Chengfeng’s form staggered backward repeatedly, falling off the arena.

Ye Chengfeng, defeated!

Silence fell over the scene!

Facing Ye Chengfeng, few could ever stand against him head-on.

Even fewer could defeat him while he unleashed his sixth sword!

Most contend with Ye Chengfeng by launching a fierce attack during the gaps before he could draw his sword, as that was key to victory.

Yet Chen Yu managed to defeat Ye Chengfeng at his fiercest, proving himself to be even more ferocious!

“How is this possible?”

Cao Xingyue found it hard to accept.

He had been defeated by Situ Lin Yu, and now Chen Yu had just squarely defeated Ye Chengfeng.

In comparison, the top student of No Demon Academy for three terms had been decided.

“This person!”

Yun Yingwu’s eyebrows furrowed with annoyance at Chen Yu’s strength.

Yunhai Zhen’s eyes widened, no longer sure who would win or lose in a battle with Chen Yu.

“Hahaha, this battle is indeed thrilling, let me join the fun too.”

All of a sudden, Fu Sanguang of Sky Star Academy ascended the stage.

Fu Sanguang, who came in second in the last tournament, a prodigy of Sky Star Academy, practiced a Cultivation Technique known as the Three Lights Star Chart, one of the ten great ancient Cultivation Techniques!

In the last tournament, he was only slightly inferior to Yun Yingwu, but who was stronger or weaker now, who could say for sure?

Fu Sanguang’s appearance caused the audience, still not recovered from the shock, to hold their breath once again!
