CHAPTER 217: CHAPTER 143: I’VE ALREADY BEEN HUMBLE ENOUGH

"That’s right! We can definitely win! Let’s go, sisters!"

Su Miaoling encouraged her two teammates, and at the same time, cheered herself up.

The battle started quickly.

Three clear voices rang out simultaneously, and then Jiang Yingrong, Huang Liying, and Su Miaoling twisted their graceful bodies, wielding their Three-Foot Cyan Peaks, to activate the Forest’s Inner Breath.

Their movements were extremely fluid, and the formation was completed in one seamless go.

This demonstrated that they indeed practiced this technique for a long time, using the Forest Technique as a foundation, intertwining the inner breath of the three, supporting and complementing each other.

Seeing this, Hong Sen and Jingyu also began to commentate on the match.

Jingyu first exclaimed in admiration: "Wow, the cooperation among the three Silver City representatives is impressive! They’ve completed the array so swiftly. Let’s see how the Linjiang Team plans to respond!"

Hong Sen started analyzing the sword array of Jiang Yingrong, Huang Liying, and Su Miaoling, mainly to explain the details to the audience watching the live broadcast: "The martial techniques displayed by the Silver City Team belong to the Hundred Flowers Valley, a famous mid-sized Martial Arts School in the area. Their renowned skill is the ’Luoying Swordsmanship,’ especially the Peach Blossom Sword Array, which is quite famous!"

With Hong Sen’s rhythmic tone, many viewers of the live broadcast also got into the mood, their emotions swayed by the outcome of the match.

As Jingyu looked towards the stage, she suddenly exclaimed: "Eh, why are only two Linjiang Team members participating? Why is Captain Ye Qingzhou standing still? What kind of strategy is this?"

It’s not just Jingyu who was puzzled; even Hong Sen was baffled by this scene.

I’m analyzing a proper match here, but what is this Linjiang Team doing?

Can’t they just follow the standard procedures?

How am I supposed to commentate on this?

On the stage, Leon and Miao Yi launched probing attacks on the Silver City Team from both sides.

On the left flank, Leon closed in quickly using Soaring Step, his long sword crackling with electricity. His first strike was the grand and open Thunderous Mid-Tier Martial Technique, Awakening!

Leon delivered a horizontal slash, the sharp blade wreathed in electric light, akin to a dazzling white thunder serpent.

At the same time, there was a thunderous roar echoing, deafening to the ears.

The Mastery-Level Mid-Tier Martial Technique, grand in momentum, astounding in power!

"Did you think you could break our sword array so easily? Ridiculous!"

Jiang Yingrong held her sword forward, adopting a defensive stance, choosing to firmly confront Leon’s strike directly.

Clang~ Clang~ Clang~

In the instant of their encounter, their sword tips exchanged more than three blows back and forth, surprisingly matching each other evenly, even though Jiang Yingrong’s cultivation was inferior to Leon’s.

Ye Qingzhou stood far back, his gaze composed and serene, observing every change in the opponent’s techniques: "I see, the three have merged their inner breath, utilizing the sword array to become an organic whole. On the surface, Leon is clashing with Jiang Yingrong, but in reality, a significant portion of his attack force is shared by Huang Liying and Su Miaoling."

This marvelous sword array greatly intrigued Ye Qingzhou.

The power combination of this sword array is not as simple as one plus one plus one equaling three.

The simplest example: the strength of one adult is probably three times that of a child, but can three children together defeat an adult?

The chances are, they would be beaten to the ground by the adult.

This is the situation Leon and Miao Yi are facing now. Alone, they could swiftly defeat any one of Jiang Yingrong, Huang Liying, or Su Miaoling.

But when the three join forces, Leon and Miao Yi find themselves at a disadvantage.

"I’m coming to help you!"

Seeing Leon failing to make headway, Miao Yi swung his blade to fend off Huang Liying’s entanglement, intending to join Leon in double-teaming Jiang Yingrong to quickly dismantle the opponent’s iron triangle formation.

The combined Yin Skill and Thunderous Skill, Mid-Tier Martial Technique, Thunderbolt Shadow!

Miao Yi shouted sharply, then pressed forward with his waist leading the blade, moving sinuously like a snake, swinging his Miao Blade towards Jiang Yingrong.

"Don’t even think about it!"

At this critical moment, Sun Miaoling brandished her sword to intercept and stop Miao Yi’s offensive.

Miao Yi, whose attack had failed, instead found himself trapped between Sun Miaoling and Huang Liying.

The Huang Liying he had previously warded off was now reinvigorated, circling around to flank him.

Forest Technique, Mid-Tier Sword Skill, Peach Blossoms and Willow Green!

Sun Miaoling and Huang Liying each wielded their Shocking Sword Skills from the ’Luoying Swordsmanship.’

Instantly, the sword qi of the two became exceptionally colorful.

One was like a rosy peach blossom, the other like verdant willow branches, intersecting as if weaving a blooming, colorful spring scene.

The beautiful scenery was mesmerizing, and in an instant, Miao Yi’s gaze became distant, his spirit seemingly immersed in the joy of welcoming spring. His fighting spirit was thoroughly dissipated, and his spirit was completely relaxed.

Until two slashing sounds were heard, two sword marks appeared on his body, and blood splattered out.

The sharp pain in his body jolted Miao Yi out of the pleasant illusion, breaking him into a cold sweat: "The sword qi was mixed with the interference of a Spiritual Illusion Technique? What a terrifying swordsmanship!"

Spiritual Martial Techniques have always been the rarest and are the hardest to train without enough talent and aptitude.

The peculiarity of the ’Luoying Swordsmanship’ lies in its ability to stack the cultivation of those forming the array, even multiplying the spiritual power, thus more easily triggering the spiritual attack effects embedded in the sword array, greatly reducing the qualifications required for the swordsman.

Seeing Miao Yi injured, Ye Qingzhou’s eyes lit up again, a slight joyous smile appearing at the corners of his mouth: "Converging the power of Thought Ability, mixing the Spiritual Illusion Technique’s attack in with the sword qi? What an ingenious concept, luck is on my side, learned something new again."

In the live broadcast room, Jingyu looked quite puzzled: "Why is contestant Ye Qingzhou smiling?"

"Maybe he encountered something pleasant," Hong Sen also found it difficult to understand.
