Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Time ticked by bit by bit, and Ling Feng also mingled within the crowd. Beside him, Xiao Juanyun had an expression like he was itching to take a shot.

As for Yeu Junyao, she had originally wanted to participate as well, but in the end, after Xiao Juanyun pitifully begged this little ancestor for half the day, she finally gave up.

After all, there were only a hundred spots. Xiao Juanyun knew exactly how many pounds and ounces he weighed. Ling Feng had already taken one spot. If Yeu Junyao came to cut in line again, his chances of squeezing into the top hundred would shrink a lot.

...Right at this moment.

A sharp Windbreak sound rang out, and then a figure shot over. In just the blink of an eye, it was as if he had crossed space and time, appearing high up in the sky.

He was none other than Xuanyuan Longteng!

This Xuanyuan Longteng was also the Family Head of the current Xuanyuan Family, a legendary figure with peerless Divine Skills.

Right after, several more figures whooshed over, as if flying in from beyond the heavens, slowly landing beside Xuanyuan Longteng.

The nine major families each sent out a representative to preside over the Newcomer Sword Master List.

After all, the purpose of this Newcomer Sword Master List was to select geniuses, not to slaughter each other. When Martial Artists clash, it’s inevitable that Fists are blind. With these powerhouses watching from the sky, they could keep an eye on the overall situation and avoid unnecessary casualties.

Of course, the most important thing was to supervise and prevent any cheating.

Xuanyuan Longteng swept his gaze across the crowd, eyes overlooking everything.

”I’ll only say this once.”

Xuanyuan Longteng slightly raised his hand and said word by word, ”Anyone discovered cheating will be expelled from Yuee Ling City on the spot and will never be allowed to enter the city again for all eternity!”

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Fighting over the Sword Pavilion was one thing, but in the end only those who occupied a Sword Pavilion could enter Xuanjian Villa.

Some people would inevitably have little schemes, letting a stronger expert help them seize a Sword Pavilion. At the final crisis, before Xuanjian Villa opened, that expert would hand the Sword Pavilion back to them.

This kind of practice could be said to be downright shameless, yet as long as one entered Xuanjian Villa, one counted as being on the Sword Master List.

Therefore, to ensure that all one hundred Sword Masters were the real deal, every session of the Newcomer Sword Master List strictly forbade any cheating.

”Alright, let’s begin!”

With that said, Xuanyuan Longteng withdrew his gaze.

In an instant, countless participants shot out like arrows leaving the string.

”Go, go, go!”

Of course, there were also some more sinister old bastards who, instead of focusing on sprinting like most Martial Artists, devoted themselves to figuring out how to eliminate others.

These people were mostly Martial Artists whose speed was relatively fast. They directly set up ambushes along the way, and as soon as someone passed by, they’d strike and heavily injure the opponent.

This tactic, while a bit underhanded, was still within the rules.

After all, strength was only one part of it. Strategy and tactics were just as important.

”Brother Ling, I’m heading out too!”

Xiao Juanyun’s movement technique unfolded, and he shot out like a cannonball. No matter what, this guy was still Direct Lineage of the Xiao Family. If he couldn’t even make the top hundred, it would indeed be a bit shameful.

Ling Feng smiled faintly. Whether it was a race of speed or anything else, he feared nothing.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

Martial Artists skilled in speed stood out from the crowd, starting to overtake others and taking the lead.

Five breaths, six breaths, seven breaths...

By this time, the extremely fast Martial Artists had already flown dozens of li away, while the slower ones had only covered about one-tenth that distance. The gap was becoming obvious.

...

Meanwhile, two people in the very front exchanged a glance and suddenly stopped, landing atop a large tree. Clearly, these two were planning to intercept and eliminate the Martial Artists coming from behind, first filtering out a batch of strong opponents.

”Ah!”

A scream rang out. As expected, some Martial Artists fell into the ambush and were directly heavily injured by the two, losing the ability to continue competing.

High up in the sky, the Elders of the nine major families each had different expressions.

A burly middle-aged man frowned and said, ”Despicable and sly, they totally disgrace the name of a Swordman!”

An old man with a somewhat sinister look, however, smiled and said, ”A temporary alliance is still within the rules. Since the rules allow it, there’s no such thing as ’despicable’ or not!”

”Heh, Elder Sun, you sure make it sound nice. Those two brats ambushing others are from your Sun Family, aren’t they!”

That burly man clenched his Fist. Among the Martial Artists who got ambushed, one of them was from their Fung Family.

”Alright, Brother Fung. Since it’s allowed by the rules, there’s nothing to complain about.”

Xuanyuan Longteng narrowed his eyes and said calmly. Although the actions of those two Sun Family juniors were contemptible, their strength was indeed not bad and they were qualified to compete for the Sword Master List.

...

At the same time, Ling Feng had already sprinted into the ambush zone of those two Sun Family Martial Artists.

Buzz!

The Void trembled. From left and right, two astonishing palm winds slashed toward him, clearly intending to cripple Ling Feng with a single blow.

”Hmph, I’ve been waiting for you!”

With his Heaven-defying Unlimited Vision, the ambush of these two was completely exposed before his eyes.

The reason he came this way was actually just to lure the two of them into making a move.

The two of them, unaware they’d been tricked, still attacked Ling Feng—only to fall right into Ling Feng’s trap instead.
