Everyone's hearts were raised, and they were even more nervous and excited than the person involved.
"Ahhh, I'm so nervous! Who do you think will win?"
"I think it's Senior Brother Lu!"
"I also think Senior Brother Lu has more hope..."
...
Many disciples prefer Lu Shen in their hearts, not only because he has shown a stronger realm, but also because they understand Lu Shen better than Ye Qingran.
Lu Shen, who was still full of confidence, suddenly felt a little vain when he met Ye Qingran's eyes...
He suddenly realized that Ye Qingran didn't seem to show the slightest panic after learning about his realm.
Could she be confident?
Lu Shen clenched his hands and forced himself to calm down.
Compared with the sparring match with Ji Rufeng, the sparring match between Lu Shen and Ye Qingran was much gentler from the start. Both sides were interested in testing each other's style and strength.
Ye Qingran realized that Lu Shen was obviously more balanced.
"Senior Brother Ye, what are you best at?"
What's the meaning?
Lu Shen looked at Ye Qingran in surprise, and his heart moved slightly.
After a long while, he replied: "Kendo!"
In fact, Yuqiu Sect is good at swordsmanship, and most of the disciples in the sect practice swordsmanship.
"In that case, then Senior Brother Lu and I will compete in swordsmanship."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
"Is Ye Qingran crazy? You actually know that Senior Brother Lu is good at swordsmanship, but you still want to compete with him in swordplay?"
"Isn't this an egg striking a stone?"
...
Even Lu Shen himself was stunned for a moment.
What did Ye Qingran say? She wanted to compete with him in swordsmanship?
Lu Shen smiled gently, but confidently, "Junior sister Ye, you have just returned to the sect and you still don't understand that my swordsmanship...has not been defeated in the sect yet."
In a sect that specializes in swordsmanship, there is no failure, and Lu Shen's swordsmanship can be seen.
"Senior Brother Lu is indeed a peerless talent. Such a record is admirable." Ye Qingran clasped his fists and changed the topic, "But it's a coincidence that I have no defeat in swordsmanship so far."
"Hahaha, Ye Qingran, are you practicing kendo with the monkeys on the mountain?" Gu Jirong did not miss any opportunity to mock Ye Qingran.
The other disciples did not show any excessive reactions, but they looked at Ye Qingran with obvious doubts.
Ye Qingran said that she has no defeat in swordsmanship yet?
Ye Qingran ignored Gu Jirong and asked Lu Shen again, "What did Senior Brother Lu say?"
Lu Shen's eyes flashed slightly. He didn't expect Ye Qingran to be so insistent at this point. He couldn't help but look at Ye Qingran with admiration.
"Since Junior Sister Ye insists, I will be disrespectful."
Lu Shen smiled and nodded, "Junior sister, let's take action."
This time, Ye Qingran did not need to borrow a sword because she had the Sword of the Destroyed King.
There is no such thing as a battle between swordsmen without the use of weapons. This is an insult to kendo.
The true way of swordsmanship must be closely related to the sword.
One of the principles of kendo is speed.
In the world of martial arts, speed is the most important thing, and this is clearly explained in the way of swordsmanship.
From the moment Lin Shen sacrificed his sword, the expression on his face changed. He was solemn and fierce, and his sword intent was soaring.
The same is true for Ye Qingran.
The next moment, Lin Shen moved, and his figure was like lightning, rushing toward Ye Qingran. Ye Qingran rushed forward, and everyone could only see the flickering cold light, and the person turned into an afterimage.
Divide at the first touch.
The two exchanged positions.
The sword in his hand was not unsheathed.
The disciples of the Jade Qiu Sect were all horrified. In the first encounter between the two sword cultivators, they both tacitly agreed not to draw their swords at first.
Even if Lu Shen didn't draw his sword, how dare Ye Qingran?
Isn't she afraid that Lu Shen will kill her instantly with one sword?
Lu Shen felt a ripple in his heart at this moment.
The encounter just now made him finally understand why Ye Qingran insisted on having a sword duel with him.
Her swordsmanship is not weak!
The second move, start!
The two still did not choose to draw their swords.
The sound of the scabbard's collision was not as crisp as the sword's collision, but sounded dull.
When everyone saw them clearly, their swords collided with each other, and they were evenly matched.
However, the next second, everyone discovered something unusual.
A strand of long hair from Lu Shen's temples fell down, fluttered in the wind, and fell to the ground.
On the other hand, Ye Qingran, everything is as usual.
"Gudong~"
This is the sound of someone swallowing saliva.
Lu Shen's hair was chopped off. What this meant seemed self-evident.
Everyone's eyes finally changed when they looked at Ye Qingran.
Lu Shen lowered his eyes and glanced at the broken hair on the ground, with a deep look in his eyes.
If you look carefully, you can see that his hand holding the sword hilt tightened, and the joints were white.
"Junior Sister Ye, it seems my sword must be unsheathed."
Ye Qingran smiled and said nothing.
Lu Shen held the hilt of the sword and slowly drew out the sword, revealing a centimeter of the sword. A cold light flashed through him, and his figure disappeared on the spot. His whole body seemed to turn into a silver light and shot towards Ye Qingran.
"You lost."
What?
Lu Shen was seen holding the sword. The tip of the sword was ten centimeters away from Ye Qingran's eyebrows. Ye Qingran's scabbard was almost touching Lu Shen's throat, only less than half an inch away.
Everyone's eyes were frozen.
The same thought came to mind: What if Ye Qingran's sword has been unsheathed?
Lu Shen lowered his eyes and looked at the blackened hilt of the sword, his face gradually turning pale.
"Senior Brother Lu, you actually lost?"
"Senior Brother Lu, who is invincible in swordsmanship, actually lost in the field he is best at...?"
"Ye Qingran, what kind of monster is she?"
...
Lu Shen showed a sad smile, "I lost."
"Senior Brother Lu accepts the offer."
Ye Qingran took back his sword.
Lu Shen shook his head, feeling like he was in a dream.
He never thought that the swordsmanship he had always been proud of would one day suffer such a tragic defeat.
"If Senior Brother Lu feels that he has failed, then he has really failed." Just when Lu Shen's heart was wrapped in endless frustration, a melodious voice sounded in his ears, shocking him.
He looked at Ye Qingran, met her smiling face, and immediately understood what she meant.
"Thank you, Junior Sister Ye."
At this moment, Lu Shen felt convinced that he had lost.
This world is full of mountains and mountains.
Defeat is the true meaning of kendo.
"Ye Qingran, you are so arrogant! Senior Brother Lu competed with you in the art of swordsmanship, but you can't even draw a sword!"
