"Junior, take this Enchanted Fist!"
As Qi Ling finished speaking, a golden fist once again lunged towards Qin Xuan's face.
Seeing this, Qin Xuan dodged to the side.
Then, he heard Chen Xuan's surprised voice ring in his ear, "A cultivator?"
A cultivator?
That's right.
He could feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy from him.
No wonder he had felt a sense of familiarity when they first clashed.
Hearing Chen Xuan's exclamation, Qin Xuan finally understood where that inexplicable sense of familiarity came from.
And speaking of spiritual energy fluctuations, Qin Xuan's face immediately lit up.
Since the other party possessed spiritual energy fluctuations, it meant that spiritual energy still existed somewhere in the world!
After this matter was settled, he would inquire about the specific details of spiritual energy.
Perhaps, with this, he could step into the Qi Refining stage mentioned by his master in a very short time!
"Arrogant junior!"
"You dare to be distracted while fighting me!"
Seeing Qin Xuan's movements become sluggish after dodging, Qi Ling instantly felt insulted by the junior in front of him.
Using his right foot as an axis, he turned and the Demon Subduing Fist struck instantly.
Qin Xuan couldn't dodge in time and could only gather his essence and resist with his arm.
Fortunately, after the tempering of the Body Refining chapter, Qin Xuan's physique was now extremely strong.
Let alone a mid-level Grandmaster, even a high-level Grandmaster might not be able to break through his defenses physically.
This was the terrifying power of the Body Refining chapter!
Failing to land a hit, Qi Ling let out a cold snort.
As he sprang away from Qin Xuan, he didn't stop talking.
"Hmph, junior, I didn't expect you to be a hard-body martial artist."
"I was careless with this strike, but next time, it won't be so easy!"
The so-called hard-body martial arts was the cultivation method adopted by martial arts cultivators.
It was a training method that used the human body's limits as a reference, relying on powerful external forces to temper the cultivator's bones and muscles.
This method allowed for rapid cultivation and had a not-low upper limit.
However, it placed extremely high demands on the cultivator's body.
One had to be strong and healthy, with astonishing recovery abilities.
Otherwise, instead of achieving hard-body martial arts, one might easily injure themselves and develop chronic ailments.
From the previous strike, Qi Ling discovered that Qin Xuan's physique far surpassed that of ordinary people.
In his opinion, he must have cultivated techniques like the Golden Bell Shield or Thirteen Taibao, which belonged to the hard-body martial arts lineage.
And for such individuals who sought quick success, Qi Ling looked down on them from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, as he retreated, he had already condensed his vital energy and gathered a Demon Breaking Fist in his hand.
"It's just hard-body martial arts, isn't it?
Let's see how I break it with skill!"
"Good one!"
Seeing Qi Ling return with extreme speed, Qin Xuan secretly applauded.
As expected of someone who surpassed a mid-level Grandmaster in all aspects, both his combat strategy and attack power were extremely excellent.
It was a pity that he had already regained his senses.
To think of using a surprise attack to gain the upper hand now was truly wishful thinking!
"Fire!"
His lips moved slightly, and balls of fire instantly shot out from Qin Xuan's palms.
Qi Ling was not afraid, his fist still fierce.
He naturally knew that these were fire elemental spells summoned by Qin Xuan using talismans.
But so what?
No matter how many spells you have, I will break them with one punch.
The Demon Breaking Fist specializes in dealing with all flashy techniques!
Bang bang bang bang!
Sharp fist winds followed Qi Ling's figure, charging forward on the martial arts arena.
The fireballs released by Qin Xuan were also broken one by one by this punch.
However, just as the last fireball exploded due to the impact of the Demon Breaking Fist, a long-awaited wind blade instantly struck towards Qi Ling's waist.
The power of the wind blade was not strong, only possessing the destructive power of a beginner Grandmaster.
But at this moment, Qi Ling's Demon Breaking Fist had reached its peak momentum.
If he didn't want to be hit by this wind blade, he had to forcefully interrupt his current attack to resolve the danger.
Otherwise, he didn't know if Qin Xuan would be killed by the punch, but he himself would definitely be cut in half by this wind blade.
Even if he didn't die, he would suffer heavy injuries!
"You damned brat, sneak attacking!"
Cursing inwardly, Qi Ling had no choice but to forcefully change the direction of his Demon Breaking Fist.
Although he had resolved the danger of the wind blade, he was also seized by Qin Xuan and hit hard twice.
With a successful hit, Qin Xuan's lips curved slightly.
Before the other party could react, he pursued his victory and released a large amount of cold air at extreme speed.
In the past, due to ingrained thinking, he always confined spells to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
He had forgotten about other attributes derived from the five elements, such as ice, wind, and lightning.
And after his last fight with Su Qing Tan, he had re-examined all the spells he had learned from Zheng Wan Qing.
Only then did he discover that many of these variations were things he had overlooked.
No wonder his third master's spells were the most powerful among his masters when they sparred.
It turned out that infinitely variable combinations and unexpected applications were the core advantages of spell casters!
"Enough!"
"Get lost!"
After enduring several more iron fists from Qin Xuan, Qi Ling finally couldn't take it anymore.
He retracted his vital energy and then instantly exploded it, using his powerful burst to shatter the frost on his body, while also sending Qin Xuan flying away.
He hadn't expected such a small young boy to be able to master so many spells so proficiently.
He had also not expected to be toyed with in the palm of his hand by the other party!
Qi Ling finally understood.
In terms of martial arts cultivation, he was indeed stronger than the opponent.
But in terms of psychological manipulation and combat strategy, he was just a novice!
Especially in the aspect of "attacking what the enemy must save," Qin Xuan had truly mastered it.
Every move he made was met with several invisible wind blades, or his face was covered in frost.
Qi Ling had never experienced this frustrating feeling of having strength but nowhere to use it.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he could only utilize the advantage the rules provided him.
After shaking Qin Xuan off, he slowly took out a few small jade bottles.
"Holy crap, no way!"
"A dignified quasi-high-level Grandmaster, the Sect Master of Kunlun Mountain's Baiyun Temple, actually uses medicine to deal with a junior!"
"Does he have any shame?"
Seeing this, the few Grandmasters who had bet on Qin Xuan immediately started booing.
Especially Sheng Wen Qiang, who had bet almost half his fortune, and Su Qing Tan, who considered Qin Xuan her grandson-in-law, directly started cursing.
But unfortunately, the rules were the rules.
Qi Refiners had always presented themselves with alchemy and longevity, being the only sect in Longguo capable of refining pills.
If they were not allowed to use pills, they would refuse to participate, citing limitations in strength and unfairness in the competition.
Therefore, to allow Qi Refiners to participate normally and to allow the strengths of the various sects to be maximized, any items that could be justified were not prohibited.
Such as the pills of Qi Refiners, the talismans of spell casters, and the weapons of martial cultivators.
Thus, even though Qi Ling's actions were despised by many, they could only vent their anger from afar and could not demand the match be stopped.
This naturally included Hu San Qiang, who was sitting above the arena.
