Chapter 111: One Slap After Another
Chapter 111: One Slap After Another
```
Third Layer of the Illusion Spirit Tower.
Xu Ping’an and the others had achieved a very good level of coordination.
Because Long Yan and his two companions didn’t have very high cultivations, it became somewhat difficult for them to quickly kill Second Rank Ninth Layer Realm spectral entities.
Therefore, at this time, the battle formation displayed its immense power.
Throughout the process, Li Qingyi was responsible for the main killing.
The others only needed to handle distraction and assistance.
So Xu Ping’an and his team were still killing very quickly.
For Li Qingyi, there wasn’t much difference between killing Second Rank Seventh Layer and Second Rank Ninth Layer entities.
In fact, Li Qingyi had even reached the point where he could kill three with a single sword strike without wasting a bit of True Yuan.
However, Tang Qingheng felt increased pressure, and Xu Ping’an had him distribute some of his strength to himself.
With this, although the pressure on Xu Ping’an increased, it was still within his control.
So, the scene the audience below saw was this:
Tang Qingheng was leading forty or so spiritual bodies on a run all over the tower.
Zhao Kai was fending off a dozen people on his own, while Long Yan was responsible for assisting Zhao Kai and killing these spectral entities.
The remaining three hundred-plus spectral entities were all charging towards Xu Ping’an.
Xu Ping’an was facing the attack of more than three spectral entities, yet he still had plenty of leeway.
This scene left everyone stunned.
"Damn, this guy’s shield is just too strong, it feels like a turtle shell, and with his movement technique, he’s actually suppressing over two hundred people, too terrifying."
"Yeah, if it were me, I would have been buried by those spectral entities by now, how does he do it?"
"The key is, he even manages to accurately release three for Li Qingyi each time."
"Not to mention, Li Qingyi is pretty strong himself, slashing three spectral entities with a single sword stroke, swiftly and neatly — it’s pure artistry, a feast for the eyes."
...
Disciples of the Li Huo Sect kept exclaiming in amazement.
At this moment, the pressure of the Third Layer didn’t seem to overwhelm the five members of the Beichen Sword Sect.
They were incredibly in sync with each other.
Above the high platform, Yu Lin and Shi Tian remained silent.
Right now, they were feeling quite heavy-hearted.
At this rate, the Beichen Sword Sect was very likely to break through to the Fourth Layer.
Once they reached the Fourth Layer, surpassing the Yudao Sect was highly probable.
Even the Tyrant Heavenly Sect was feeling immense pressure.
Zhao Tianlong watched this scene with immense satisfaction.
Especially seeing the expressions of those two old guys, he really wondered what their faces would look like when they were surpassed by them.
Although Mo Qingtian was surprised, it wasn’t too bad and he didn’t feel too much pressure.
In his view, no matter what, it was impossible for the Beichen Sword Sect to surpass the Li Huo Sect.
As time passed, Xu Ping’an and his team were successful in killing all the spectral entities on the Third Layer.
This meant that Xu Ping’an and his group earned the right to enter the Fourth Layer.
And what made Yu Lin’s face look bad was that, could it be, not one of the five members of the Beichen Sword Sect was injured?
On the side of the Yudao Sect, the ones who previously had a disdainful attitude towards the disciples of the Beichen Sword Sect, their expressions changed dramatically.
"Impossible, how could the Beichen Sword Sect have made it to the Fourth Layer? They must have cheated," a Yudao Sect disciple shouted unwillingly.
However, many disciples of the Li Huo Sect looked at him.
Cheat?
Under the watchful eyes of so many, how could they cheat?
The faces of the Yudao Sect disciples turned ashen.
If the Beichen Sword Sect managed to kill more than five, then in this Sect Competition,
The Yudao Sect would rank fourth, a shameful spot that would be too embarrassing for words.
Xue Wen also had a grave expression on his face.
He had not expected that in this competition, the Beichen Sword Sect would turn out to be the dark horse.
The Tyrant Heavenly Sect was feeling the pressure at this point as well.
It was highly likely that the Yudao Sect would be surpassed, but what about them?
```
```
Although the probability is small, it’s still possible!
Only the disciples from Li Huo Sect watching the competition had expressions as if they were looking at a joke.
While the audience below could not calm their hearts,
Xu Ping’an and his companions had already reached the Fourth Layer.
This time, they would face five hundred Second Rank First Layer Realm opponents.
But Zhao Kai and Tang Qingheng were only Second Rank Third Layer; how could they fight?
"Zhao Kai, Tang Qingheng, Long Yan, the three of you cooperate with each other. Your goal is not to kill the enemy, but to hold them off. Try your best to conserve strength; the rest is up to Qingyi and me," Xu Ping’an changed the strategy.
Battle formations did not mean staying the same at all layers; deciding based on the actual situation was most effective.
"Okay!" The three also realized they could not carry out the previous strategy and could only try their best to pull and drag the enemies.
"Can you kill five at once?" Xu Ping’an looked at Li Qingyi with a smile and asked.
"Yes!" Li Qingyi answered decisively.
Xu Ping’an immediately grinned and said, "Then let’s do it!"
"Kill!"
A roar erupted from the Spiritual Bodies as they charged at Xu Ping’an and his group.
Zhao Kai and the other two followed Xu Ping’an’s instructions, supporting each other, holding off the enemies without engaging them.
Even so, they were only able to pull about forty-something opponents.
The other four hundred plus charged at Xu Ping’an and Li Qingyi.
Xu Ping’an had Li Qingyi stand in the corner of the tower while he stood in front of her.
One man to hold the pass, ten thousand unable to break through.
"Xuanwu Crashing Mountain!"
Xu Ping’an burst out like a wild bull charging forward.
"Boom!"
Using his shield for protection, he rammed out with a strike.
The next moment, a full hundred people were knocked to the ground by Xu Ping’an.
Moreover, a dozen or so Spiritual Bodies completely exploded under Xu Ping’an’s impact.
"Holy shit!"
All the spectators below cried out in shock.
Kill over a dozen Second Rank First Layer Realm Spiritual Bodies with one blow?
Is this guy human or a Demon Beast?
All the Li Huo Sect disciples were stunned by this scene.
The Yudao Sect, Tyrant Heavenly Sect, and other competitors from Li Huo Sect were also dumbfounded.
If this strike were to hit a person, what would happen?
It could probably turn someone into a mist of blood, right?
Above the high platform, many Elders were dumbfounded as well.
Especially the Elder from Tyrant Heavenly Sect, who was amazed, "Such strong physical strength, it’s almost like Second Rank Fifth Layer. Has this guy cultivated the Body Refinement Realm?"
The Great Elder from Yudao Sect was also extremely surprised; is this guy a disciple of Tyrant Heavenly Sect or Beichen Sword Sect?
Even the Sect Master of Li Huo Sect was dumbfounded.
"Interesting! Xu Ping’an is starting to show his true strength," Qin Mu was also full of surprise.
He was surprised by the strength Xu Ping’an had shown.
"No wonder the Monarch asked me to kill this person; it seems this kid really isn’t simple," the Great General from Tianlong County, Wu Biao, also narrowed his eyes.
Just this one strike was enough to demonstrate Xu Ping’an’s extraordinary abilities.
However, the next moment, Xu Ping’an’s actions once again petrified everyone.
They saw Xu Ping’an wielding the shield like a giant hand, slapping wildly.
One slap for each Spiritual Body, killing them outright.
Of course, he didn’t forget to leave out five for Li Qingyi to handle each time.
The latter’s swordsmanship was incredibly graceful; with a flash of cold light with each stroke, five Spiritual Bodies were slain on the spot.
But no matter how graceful Li Qingyi’s swordsmanship was, it couldn’t compare to Xu Ping’an’s massive slaps at this moment.
One slap for each, leaving the disciples watching to question their life choices.
Even Zhao Kai and the others watching from afar were dumbfounded, caught between laughter and tears.
