“Compete with sword techniques?” The warriors of the Deserted Sea Realm exchanged a look of bafflement.

The so-called sword technique match meant that the opponents would compete with only sword techniques instead of ultimate techniques, which was categorized as combat techniques in this world, or cultivation abilities.

In such battles, the participants were forbidden to use powerful techniques such as ‘Completely Unrivaled’.

The Frost Dragon Family had easily defeated many masters of the Heavenly Academy before the warriors of Deserted Sea Realm participated.

However, when the warriors of Deserted Sea Realm entered the contest, the Frost Dragon Family received three pathetic defeats in a row. How could they take this with grace and endure it?

They had seen the great power of the combat techniques used by the two warriors of the Deserted Sea Realm in the previous matches, so they intended to avoid this area and have matches in another area.

They didn’t expect that they could defeat their opponents in a landslide, but they must win at least one match to redeem themselves.

Otherwise, the Frost Dragon Family would be disgraced if they were totally defeated by the warriors from a place that others didn’t even know about.

When Liang Heihu used Innumerable Sword Returning to Root, he summoned many swords from the audience. Some of them had been delivered back to their owners, and some people just walked down to fetch their swords to avoid all the trouble.

Nalan Hongwu was one in the latter group.

At this moment, Chekov repeated his request for a sword technique match.

“I’ll take this match,” Nalan Hongwu said nonchalantly.

Seeing Chekov having a huge double-handed sword, Nalan Hongwu pulled up a greatsword from the ground. While glancing at the young man of Ultimate West Realm who came over to fetch this sword, he said, “Let me borrow your sword for a while.”

“Ahh?”

“He’s going to use a greatsword?!”

His words astonished not only warriors of the Frost Dragon Family but all warriors of the Ultimate West Realm as well.

After all, the warriors of the Spiritual State were used to single-handed long swords. From the previous matches, they could tell that the warriors of the Deserted Sea Realm were used to single-handed long swords too.

In other words, only warriors of the Ultimate West Realm liked using double-handed greatswords.

However, this warrior of the Deserted Sea Realm picked up a double-handed greatsword that was as thick as a door, wanting to use it a sword technique match!

Chekov instantly yelled in a fury, “I’ll make you regret trying to show off your techniques in front of an Emperor Warrior!”

“Hmph! I’m surprised at the arrogance of the warriors of your Deserted Sea Realm!” Sia had been calm, but now her pretty face turned livid with fury.

Since Sia was already like this, the warriors of the Frost Dragon Family were even more furious, and they yelled, “Beat him!”

“Show him our power!”

“He’s tired of living! How dare he show off his double-handed sword techniques in front of Elder Chekov!”

In fact, none of them thought that warriors of the Deserted Sea Realm could use double-handed greatswords.

The double-handed greatswords and single-handed long swords were both swords, but they had two different systems of techniques. It meant that people couldn’t use double-handed swords with single-handed sword techniques.

When Chekov saw the white-haired old man grasping the double-handed huge sword with the single-hand sword posture, he sneered and thought, This guy doesn’t know how to use double-handed swords; I’ll surely defeat him.

With an explosive roar, Chekov leaped high into the air, hacking his huge sword toward Nalan Hongwu with overwhelming wind pressure. It felt like he was holding a huge mountain in his hands and attacking Nalan Hongwu.

In the next instant, a sword light flashed.

Nalan Hongwu lifted the huge sword that was about 100 pounds, but it seemed like he was holding nothing.

Faced with his opponent’s lightning-speed strikes, Chekov retreated a dozen steps with alarm.

His robe was hacked open in the chest. If he didn’t dodge in time, he would have been hacked into two halves!

What is this sword technique?!

Before he could come up with an answer, Nalan Hongwu moved forward and leaped up into the sky with both hands gripping the sword.

It was the same type of drop strike. Compared with Chekov’s move, this strike was as heavy as a mountain and was also as fast as a bolt of lightning!

“Cloud?” Song Qingfeng instantly recognized it. “Senior watched Final Fantasy as well?!”

Boom!

The ground shattered under Nalan Hongwu’s sword; the ground before him exploded and turned into a huge crater.

“You’re not using your greatsword properly.” While looking at Chekov who kept dodging, Nalan Hongwu said calmly.

“Watch my greatsword technique!” While he spoke, Nalan Hongwu shot out like a cannonball. Chekov was alarmed and knew that stuff was about to go down. He dodged one slash, but Nalan Hongwu’s greatsword seemed to turn weightless and continued to hack toward him.

The repeated strikes were as heavy as a mountain when needed and were as fast as lightning when required. Nalan Hongwu used this technique to the teeth, and it felt like he wasn’t a human but a complicated war machine!

Each technique and every move were the best way of killing. They looked extremely simple, which shocked Chekov even more.

Only geniuses with great combat talent could reach this realm after many battles.

This white-haired old man has reached this realm!?

While Chekov tried his best to block his opponent’s storm of attacks from all directions, Nalan Hongwu drew out his single-handed sword from his waist.

With the greatsword in one hand and the single-hand sword in the other, he used both swords at the same time!

The warriors of the Ultimate West Realm felt blinded by this scene!

“The person who battled me said that he learned his sword technique from a guy called Cloud, and this old man is using the same sword technique,” Sia said in a daze, “Is this old man Cloud?!”

“You know nothing! Don’t say such nonsense!” Jiang Xiaoyue explained while crunching on potato chips, “Senior also learned the greatsword technique from Cloud.”

Although the players watched the same movie, Nalan Hongwu could use much more powerful sword techniques compared to the ordinary players who had watched Final Fantasy once. After all, he had swept across battlefields since he was young and excelled in all kinds of weapons with abundant combat experience. Besides, he had played the Paladin character and Devil May Cry, and thus he had a deep understanding of various systems of sword techniques.

At this moment, the warriors of the Ultimate West Realm watched in a daze as Chekov was getting beaten by a warrior of Deserted Sea Realm with a double-handed greatsword; they were at a loss for words.

With two swords in hand, every single one of Nalan Hongwu’s attacks was the same as if two swordmasters were moving; his greatsword and longsword worked together seamlessly. Chekov’s defeat was inevitable.

“Impossible! I don’t believe it!” After Chekov was defeated, another incredulous elder leaped into the field.

Three minutes later, he was knocked down onto the ground.

“Let’s compete with only double-handed swords! Don’t use single-handed swords!” Another elder leaped down onto the field.

“This time, let the young people under 20 years old compete!”

“This time, let’s compete with saber techniques!” They even discarded swords.

“This time, let’s compete with fists!” They discarded weapons this time.

…

They had many matches.

“How come you warriors of the Deserted Sea Realm seem to know everything?!” Sia suddenly realized something and gasped.
