Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1087: You Probably Didn’t Expect That I Can Fly, Right?

Translator: Lordbluefire

Xu Cong held onto his longsword, giving Ying Baiwu a faint smile. He didn’t say any harsh words as that’d make him appear to be very low class.

After the competition started, he’d let the opponent make a move first before he made a retaliation and dealt an instant kill. This was his script.

Why not fight for the initiative first?

(I’m someone at the peak of the Blood Ignition Realm. Wouldn’t that be very embarrassing?)

“Start!”

Tong Yiming announced.

Ying Baiwu’s expression was cold. She raised her longbow but didn’t release quick shots. Instead, she put it down. “Do you think that you’ll be able to win?”

Xu Cong couldn’t be bothered to talk to her.

“I don’t need you to let me attack first. If I win, I have to win fair and square!”

Ying Baiwu felt very upset. (Who gave you the courage to think that this is a sure-win battle? Do I look like a weakling?)

“Is that so?”

Xu Cong’s lips twitched and he swung his sword.

Swoosh!

A stream of sword qi flashed out at lightning speed, brushing past the side of Ying Baiwu’s face.

Hua!

At the sight of this scene, several people gasped. His sword qi didn’t lose out to arrows.

“Ying Baiwu, don’t be careless. Xu Cong has the reputation of being the fastest sword in the south amongst his peers. By the time you see his sword, you’re already dead.”

A great teacher spoke up, wanting to earn some favors from Sun Mo.

“I know!”

Ying Baiwu’s lips twitched and she strummed her bowstring.

Li Ziqi had gathered the information about these potential opponents long ago.

Buzz!

The bowstring trembled and Xu Cong’s heart shook unconsciously. All the hairs on his body stood up. This was a defensive reaction produced by sharp six senses.

As expected, a semi-translucent arrow appeared in front of him, brushing past his ear and flying past.

An eye for an eye. This was Ying Baiwu’s retaliation.

Wow!

Several cultivators let out surprised gasps.

How did she do that?

It was a known fact that if an archer wished to hit their target, they had to aim carefully. However, Ying Baiwu’s longbow had been pointed toward the ground while she strummed the bowstring casually. With just this, an arrow had shot out toward Xu Cong, who was far away.

Some experienced experts understood that Ying Baiwu’s action was just a demonstration. Otherwise, her arrow would continue to be transparent and would be hard to capture by the naked eye.

“To think that the Wind King Divine Art is so amazing?”

Gu Xiuxun, who was on the spectators stand, was extremely surprised.

She only liked blades and swords and thus hadn’t paid much attention to archery.

“You don’t know?”

Mei Ziyu was surprised. “But that’s fine. If you want to learn it, Sun Mo will definitely be willing to teach you!”

“I’m not learning it!”

Gu Xiuxun shook her head. “I belong to the blade and sword faction.”

Murong Mingyue looked at the two of them, feeling a little speechless. (Is it really a good idea for you guys to say such things in front of An Xinhui?)

That was a peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation art—one that could ensure a clan’s prosperity for 100 years.

“Hurry up and start the battle!”

Tong Yiming urged.

Ying Baiwu had proven that she didn’t need to be given the chance to make the first move. Therefore, this time around, she took the initiative to attack first, drawing her longbow and sending out 12 consecutive shots.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Six arrows flew in the sky, while the other six were in a transparent state, hiding amongst them.

Xu Cong discerned their location through their sounds. He then swung his longsword, breaking all the arrows.

“Hmmm? Hmm? Why did he slash a few more times?”

Someone felt perplexed.

“Stupid. Of course, there are invisible arrows amongst them.”

Everyone started to imagine themselves in his shoes and their scalps turned numb. How were they supposed to defend against invisible arrows? Although experts had to use all six of their senses when sparring, most people still relied more on their eyes.

After Ying Baiwu sent out a round of speed shots, she drew her longbow to its maximum, sending down arrows like meteors toward Xu Cong.

Xu Cong, who had been standing there without moving, suddenly made a move. He was as quick as the wind. Not only had he dodged the arrows, but he even attacked Ying Baiwu while parrying.

Sword Qi Like Waves!

Swoosh!

Several ten sword qis gushed toward Ying Baiwu like a strong gale.

Ying Baiwu’s body moved and a clone appeared.

Wow!

The audience gasped in surprise once again. This clone was lifelike and not only did it have a shadow, but all of its expressions were also filled with the aura of life.

This was the Wind King Illusion, and it could pass off the fake as if it was real.

“She’s quite something!”

Xu Cong praised secretly. (Top-notch cultivation arts are really amazing. However, the huge difference in our cultivation levels can’t be made up by cultivation arts. Even if you sent three more my way, I’d still kill them without any problems.)

Ying Baiwu and the illusions pulled their longbows at the same time.

“Seriously? The clones can shoot arrows too? Moreover, they really look like they have strong killing prowess!”

The audience was just watching for fun, but the great teachers and their disciples were all stunned. Quite a number of people immediately took out their image-recording stones, planning to record this battle then study it carefully after they went back.

“If I were to encounter such an enemy, I’d turn and leave!”

A great teacher commented.

“Don’t you find it embarrassing?”

Someone pointed out.

What replied to him was a series of gasps. It was because, in the arena, Xu Cong had just dodged an arrow and was about to slash Ying Baiwu, but the arrow that had just brushed past him turned back. It made a curve and returned, attacking the back of Xu Cong’s head.

“There’s such a thing?”

The spectators felt that they would have no chances of winning if they were the ones battling Ying Baiwu.

The great teacher who had said that it was ’embarrassing’ earlier looked awkward. He shrank his neck back and quickly hid.

Swoosh!

Xu Cong used Rhino Gazing at the Moon and broke the arrow shooting toward his back with a back-handed attack. He then suddenly accelerated and got close to one Ying Baiwu.

“He noticed the real one?”

Just as everyone thought that he was going to kill this Ying Baiwu, Xu Cong’s ultimate technique hit the furthest Ying Baiwu.

Sword Lotus Blooms!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Streams of sword qis shot out, attacking Ying Baiwu. Even if they didn’t hit, they didn’t disappear either. Instead, they formed a golden lotus before they disintegrated and shot out again.

“Do you really think that I can’t discern between the real and the fake?”

Xu Cong mocked.

In fact, it was impossible to tell the difference just by relying on his six senses. However, he could tell from the attacks because the one he focused on attacking had shot out arrows with a stronger prowess. Moreover, her arrows had tracking capabilities too.

“It’s been dragged on for too long!”

Jiang Zhitong was displeased. It seemed that Xu Cong would need to be put through harsher special training since he couldn’t even kill someone from a lower cultivation level instantly.

Swoosh!

Sword qi gushed out and slashed onto Ying Baiwu.

(Show mercy? Sorry, casualties are common in personal disciples battles. If you were to die, you can only blame yourself for being weak.)

“How ruthless!”

Tong Yiming frowned. He was about to extend a helping hand to save Ying Baiwu, but he stopped.

Xu Cong, who had sent out his ultimate attack, did a movement of withdrawing his sword. He then stood there with his hand behind his back, planning on walking over to the edge of the arena. However, at this instant, a feeling of death rose in his heart.

“What’s going on?”

Xu Cong went on guard. He then saw the Ying Baiwu, who had been slashed by the lotus flower sword qis. Although dismembered, she wasn’t bleeding at all.

“It’s a fake?”

Xu Cong frowned. (Could I have misjudged it?) He immediately reacted and sent out his ultimate attacks toward the other Ying Baiwus.

Even if he couldn’t take down the other party, he must disturb her attacks and gain momentum.

Xu Cong’s idea wasn’t bad, but the reality was harsh. After Xu Cong had sent out a wave of attacks, disregarding his spirit qi reserve, a wind pressure suddenly attacked from behind him.

“Shit! There’s more?”

Xu Cong had just sent out an explosive round of attacks, and his spirit qi hadn’t returned to normal yet. However, even if his spirit qi level was in optimal condition, he wouldn’t be able to fend off this wave of sneak attacks.

Ssss!

An arrow pierced through Xu Cong’s right shoulder, and the tremendous destructive power exploded and ruined his shoulder, causing his arm to fall off.

“What?”

Jiang Zhitong was taken by great shock. How could this happen?

“Damn it!”

Xu Cong staggered. If he hadn’t dodged fast enough, he’d have died.

“Admit your loss!”

Ying Baiwu let out a cold snort.

“What’s going on?”

“She has concealed herself?”

“My god, isn’t this cultivation art too amazing?”

The audience was very surprised. After that, they saw a Ying Baiwu appearing whilst floating in the air.

So, all the Ying Baiwus from earlier weren’t real.

When Xu Cong was analyzing which of them was fake, he had fallen for the trap. The amusing thing was that he had been proud and thought that he had the victory.

“F*ck you!”

Xu Cong cursed and grabbed his right arm with his left. Holding onto the longsword, he slashed out rapidly.

Boom!

A tremendous amount of sword qi gushed out like strong gales, covering the area that Ying Baiwu was in.

(Aren’t you good at concealing yourself? Then I’ll use an area attack.)

Ssss! Ssss! Ssss!

Sword qi slashed onto the arena, leaving behind many slash marks.

“Isn’t this too shameless? He’s relying purely on his cultivation level to suppress his opponent!”

Someone couldn’t stand to watch this.

Jiang Zhitong’s countenance was very grim. To speak the truth, this way of winning was very embarrassing. It was no longer within the range of sparring to compare techniques.

Deng! Deng! Deng!

Ying Baiwu backed off repeatedly. When she reached the edge of the arena, she tried to receive the attacks forcibly for a moment. However, Xu Cong’s sword technique quickly came after her.

Bang!

Ying Baiwu leaped off the arena. There was no helping it. If she didn’t leave, she could only die.

“Goddamn it!”

Jiang Zhitong cursed. Although falling off from the arena was considered a loss as well, it was too insignificant. His personal disciple had lost an arm.

“As long as one hasn’t landed, the competition continues.”

The injured Xu Cong was consumed with rage and performed his sword techniques again.

Ying Baiwu was in the air and plunging. With nowhere to tap on to change her direction, it could be said that she was the perfect target.

“Die!”

Xu Cong’s gaze was ice-cold.

Sword Soul Lifeseizer!

A stream of golden sword qi shot out explosively.

Some great teachers closed their eyes, unable to watch this. At the same time, their assessment of Xu Cong plunged tremendously. (Aren’t you too vindictive? You’ve won, but you’re still being so ruthless? It seems that the Jiang Clan’s manners aren’t that good!)

However, just as the golden sword qi hit Ying Baiwu, her body suddenly paused in the air. The sword qi brushed past the sole of her feet and missed.

“What?” Xu Cong was stunned. “Why didn’t it hit? My aiming and control should have been extremely good.”

Swoosh!

An arrow brushed past him explosively.

Pa!

Xu Cong held onto his sword with his left hand and parried the arrow in a sorry state. After all, he wasn’t a left-hander and couldn’t control the sword with his left hand. Therefore, his movements were awkward.

But that didn’t matter. Before the other party landed, there was one more chance for him to attack.

(Sigh!)

(It’s such a pity that I wasn’t able to kill her! But it’s fine. I will just look for a chance to kill her in the future.)

Xu Cong had lost an arm, so there was no way that he wouldn’t hate Ying Baiwu.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Ying Baiwu shot out arrows explosively and they flew everywhere.

Xu Cong dodged them in a sorry state, shrouded by a dying aura. He couldn’t help but cry out.

“Judge, aren’t you going to do anything about this? She has landed on the ground and lost.”

Xu Cong rolled and kept on getting hit by the arrows.

“You...”

Tong Yiming was just about to say something when he was stunned on the spot, his eyes wide open. He was considered to be very experienced and had seen many things in life. However, at this moment, he looked so shocked as if he was a groom who had entered the bridal room and realized that his newly wedded wife had a small butterfly tattoo.

Pffft! Pffft! Pffft!

Xu Cong continued to get hit by the arrows, and blood splattered from his body.

“Damn it! You’ve lost! Why are you still attacking?”

Jiang Zhitong was enraged, raising his hand and wanting to kill Ying Baiwu.

“What are you doing?”

Sun Mo took a step forward, speaking harshly and wearing a stern look.

“You guys are being the rascals, ignoring the rules!”

Jiang Zhitong flew into a rage.

“You fool! Open your eyes and look at the situation!”

Sun Mo let out an explosive bellow.

“What the hell?”

“F*ck! To think that she’s floating?”

“How did she do that?”

The spectators who were standing on Ying Baiwu’s side were completely stunned. It was as if they had seen the descent of a god. This was too unbelievable!

Ying Baiwu’s feet had stopped one inch off the ground. It was as if there was a platform forged from the air under her.

“What? Floating?”

Jiang Zhitong pushed away the crowd in front of him and dashed over. When he saw Ying Baiwu’s state, he was stunned too.

(This… How is it possible?)

“Teacher Jiang, didn’t you ask earlier ‘Can Sun Mo possibly fly?'”

Li Ziqi smiled and said, “Let me tell you solemnly. Not only can my teacher do it, but my junior martial sister can do it as well!”

Swoosh!

Upon hearing this, everyone’s head turned over. Many gazes that were filled with astonishment looked at Sun Mo.

(How did you do that?)

At this moment, everyone felt extremely curious and then extremely jealous.

Flying was an age-old dream countless people had!

Right now, Sun Mo’s disciple had done it.

Alright!

It was a notch lower, floating in the air. But this was already an incredible achievement.

“Is it a cultivation art?”

“It should be some kind of secret treasure of darkness. After all, a cultivation art that can allow one to float in the air is unheard of in history!”

“Listen to what Li Ziqi said. It’s clearly a case where Sun Mo found a way to float or he might have invented some kind of cultivation art. It could also be possible that he had invented some kind of secret treasure!”

Everyone whispered amongst themselves. No matter what the answer was, their gazes when looking toward Sun Mo had turned fervent.

If it wasn’t that the situation wasn’t appropriate, they’d really want to bellow out.

(Give me one too!)

“When I say that the summer bug knows not what the cold is, I’m referring to you!”

“When I say that the frog in the well knows not how vast the sky is, I’m also referring to you!”

“When I say that the shrimp knows not about the whale, I’m still referring to you!”

Li Ziqi’s brutal mouth rattled away, “You, Jiang Zhitong, were immersed in the past glory of the Jiang Clan. You’ve forgotten to look up at the world, and that in a group of three, there will always be a person who can teach you something. You’ve long since forgotten how to write the word ‘respect’. Once someone is better than you, you’ll develop a strong urge to seek revenge immediately...

“How can someone like you be worthy of the great teacher title? You’re really a refined-looking scum who’ll mislead students!”

Buzz!

Priceless Advice erupted!

Golden light spots shot out in all directions, illuminating the place. When they landed on Jiang Zhitong, feelings of shame, annoyance, and self-reproach caused fury to consume him and he spurted out blood.

Pffft!

Jiang Zhitong wanted to shout (You, a kid, dare to humiliate me?)

However, he didn’t dare to do that. It was because what Li Ziqi said wasn’t wrong. Once he scolded her, he’d be proving that what she said was true.

“My god, Eldest Martial Sister has killed someone with her words!”

Xianyu Wei was given a fright and decided never to talk back to her eldest martial sister in the future.
