Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 154 - 132 Equality of Status

The two stunning beauties remained silent, their minds full of thoughts about Li Yunjing.

The people beside them were also unable to sit still.

"Damn it! That guy Li Yunjing practices the ’Five Thunders True Method’! Just like that bastard Xu Xun!"

Fu Chao’s expression was extremely complex.

From this point of view, he was now completely outmatched by Li Yunjing!

If he didn’t use the trump cards given to him by his brother and clan, he would probably be easily killed by Li Yunjing in a direct confrontation!

The gap between them seemed very apparent.

This deeply wounded Fu Chao’s pride.

"No way! I, Fu Chao, am a genius too! I can’t be outdone by Li Yunjing!"

Fu Chao muttered to himself, thinking in his heart, "Shen Tuhuo is good! He’s worth roping in. I’ll offer him some benefits to win him over and have him teach me the ’Samadhi True Fire Array!’ "

Fu Chao had top-grade fire Spirit Root and was extremely envious of the techniques Shen Tuhuo had shown.

Defeating Shen Tuhuo, cultivating the ’Samadhi True Fire,’ and then surpassing Li Yunjing became his foremost desire.

The distinguished figures on the main stage were immensely shocked by Li Yunjing, their minds filled with countless thoughts.

Naturally, the ordinary Outer Disciples and Inner Sect Disciples were even more astonished.

They looked at Li Yunjing with complicated expressions; was this the genius who had slain those at the Great Perfection of the Qi Cultivation Realm from the outside world?

Indeed, reputations are earned; someone with such a grand reputation didn’t achieve it without reason!

The place where they had just fought was shrouded in thick smoke released by the ’Samadhi True Fire,’ so these ordinary disciples hadn’t seen how Li Yunjing broke through the blockade, which left many feeling regretful.

Even the people in the stands, who asked one another, couldn’t explain what had happened.

However, the breaking of the ’Samadhi True Fire Array,’ followed by Li Yunjing’s body technique and swordsmanship, still left these fellow disciples in shock, acknowledging Li Yunjing’s exceptional combat power.

After stepping off the stage, Li Yunjing began watching the matches on the other stages.

Overall, the second round of matches was much more exciting than the first round.

The Outer Sect of Shenxiao Dao Sect had nearly a hundred thousand disciples, but only about a thousand participated in the second round.

These so-called Outer Disciples could already be considered small-time geniuses among one in a hundred, naturally making the competition incredibly fierce.

In this round, Li Yunjing was the second to finish, giving him plenty of time to observe the performances of others.

The appearance of Shen Tuhuo made Li Yunjing exercise more caution in the upcoming matches, not daring to be careless.

If he hadn’t managed to break Shen Tuhuo’s array plate just now, he might really have been refined to death in the ’Samadhi True Fire Array!’

Such Immortal Fire was no joke.

Even if Shen Tuhuo’s cultivation wasn’t up to par, Li Yunjing, merely a Qi Cultivation Realm cultivator, couldn’t withstand it head-on.

Shen Tuhuo undoubtedly had the strength to kill someone at the Great Perfection of the Qi Cultivation Realm!

The Outer Sect was truly full of hidden talents!

Li Yunjing watched each stage while pondering, as many disciples’ matches concluded, with some winning and others losing.

The second round was incredibly intense, with some Outer Disciples seriously injured and carried off to receive treatment from the Sect Stewards.

There was also an unexpected event in the second round.

An Outer Disciple was killed on stage after a bitter struggle.

The members of the Shenxiao Dao Sect didn’t find this surprising, as there were many with similar strengths; if neither side conceded and someone suddenly used a trump card, a death could indeed occur.

Every year’s competition saw deaths.

The Foundation Establishment Realm stewards acting as referees for the Sect couldn’t guarantee the safety of combatants at all times.

Participants like Li Yunjing were mentally prepared for such occurrences.

Almost everyone faced such events with composure.

Only the deceased’s friends and family would grieve for a while.

In the Immortal Dao, death was all too common.

Everyone was used to seeing life and death, so there wasn’t much room for sentimentality.

This round lasted for a full hour and a half, and as the sun was setting, it was almost evening.

Yet, the Martial Arts Arena was still brilliantly lit.

Li Yunjing’s acquaintances had also returned.

Only Su Guo and Jin Shouyun remained from his group; both of his junior sisters had been defeated.

Yan Dingzhi’s situation was even worse; his entire first group had been eliminated, leaving only him.

Among their other acquaintances, only Hou Boyan and Yue Zhouwang had advanced to the third round.

Li Yunjing watched some of their matches and thought that if they didn’t have some powerful trump cards, it would be difficult for them to progress further.

After Yan Dingzhi and the others returned, Li Yunjing congratulated the winners and consoled the losers.

After some idle talk, the third round of matches began.

[Stage 2, Shen Zhan]

This was Li Yunjing’s third opponent.

When Li Yunjing stepped onto the stage, an unexpected event occurred.

"Senior Brother Li, I admit I’m no match and willingly concede!"

When Li Yunjing’s opponent appeared, this fellow disciple named Shen Zhan unexpectedly surrendered voluntarily.

Seeing he was up against a powerhouse like Li Yunjing, Shen Zhan conceded without hesitation and jumped off the stage.

Li Yunjing’s reputation had reached a point where he could win without a fight.
