Chapter 40: Advanced Combat Skills! Taking Off from the Spot:
“What’s going on? Why isn’t Young Master Zhang making a move?”
“It seems something’s off! Young Master Zhang seems to be trying to retract his sword but can’t move it. That guy’s holding it firmly!”
“The situation is strange. Young Master Zhang’s spiritual Qi is at its peak. How strong is that guy?”
The people around noticed something was wrong.
“You... how did you do that?”
Zhang Chengzhi was also stunned and couldn't help but question.
“Oh... So you wanted to retract the sword! You could have just said so; how can I know?”
Ye Wuhen said innocently, then suddenly released his grip.
Thud... Thud... Thud...
Unable to withdraw his strength in time, Zhang Chengzhi staggered back several steps.
The scene caused everyone to gasp in shock.
It was too ruthless!
Just moments ago, Zhang Chengzhi had used so much force and still couldn’t retract his sword from Ye Wuhen’s grasp?
For a moment, everyone looked at Ye Wuhen as if he were a monster.
Only the girl in the pink robes, with her simple heart, was still clapping and cheering.
“Wow, so impressive!”
Her straightforward praise made Zhang Chengzhi’s face turn red with embarrassment.
What a disgrace...
“Brat, you’re seeking death!”
Zhang Chengzhi roared angrily. His long sword once again glowed with brilliance.
This time, Zhang Chengzhi clearly used a combat skill, and it was likely an advanced one...
The long sword in his hand trembled, causing the surroundings to vibrate.
A faint image of a mountain seemed to appear around the sword, reinforcing it.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
With each swing of the sword, the air burst with explosive sounds.
“Run...”
The girl in pink robes, who had been clapping moments ago, was terrified again, crying out in alarm.
The woman in the black veil was equally shocked.
They hadn’t expected Zhang Chengzhi to have mastered an advanced combat skill.
Combat skills were divided into ordinary and advanced types, with the latter ranging from first to ninth rank.
Ordinary combat skills were fairly common, while advanced ones were very precious.
Even the lowest-grade first rank combat skill could nearly double a cultivator’s combat power!
What Zhang Chengzhi was using was likely a first rank combat skill...
...
Everyone’s thoughts were racing.
Zhang Chengzhi’s sword, empowered with mountain-like force, was coming down on Ye Wuhen’s face.
At this point, everyone believed Ye Wuhen was doomed.
His realm was suppressed…
The opponent had an advanced combat skill…
This was a battle on a completely different level!
What stunned everyone was that Ye Wuhen remained standing unmoved, showing no intention of dodging.
Could he really think that his innate strength could counter an advanced combat skill?
Everyone’s hearts were in their throats...
Ye Wuhen finally moved.
He suddenly stepped with a mysterious gait.
Then, he bizarrely vanished from his original spot.
BOOM!
Before anyone could find Ye Wuhen, they heard a faint groan.
Finally, everyone saw Ye Wuhen’s figure.
He was standing calmly next to Zhang Chengzhi, lifting one leg.
In front of that leg was Zhang Chengzhi’s head.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Zhang Chengzhi was sent flying like a dead dog, crashing into a large tree, then rebounding back.
Everyone was dumbfounded...
This guy not only had no problem with Zhang Chengzhi’s advanced combat skill but had even kicked him away???
How did he manage that?
But there was no time to ponder, as the battle wasn’t over.
After crashing into the tree and rebounding back, Zhang Chengzhi hadn’t even stabilized himself.
He felt like his head had been hit by a heavy hammer again.
Then he was sent flying once more.
Precisely crashing into the same tree, he rebounded back again.
And then...
BOOM!
The familiar sound rang out again as he took off from the spot!
