Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 169 - : Amaze the Audience
Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Amaze the Audience
Jiang Fan glared at Liu Qingxian angrily and said in a low voice, “Would it kill you not to mention me?”
Liu Qingxian’s eyes showed a hint of cunning, “Less talk, aren’t you going to accept the challenge?”
Of course, she knew that mentioning Jiang Fan would inevitably make him a target.
But she did it on purpose.
And she even said that extremely hurtful remark about being inferior to Jiang Fan.
Who told them to look down on Jiang Fan and speak ill of him?
...
Just let Jiang Fan perform well and slap their faces hard.
With Jiang Fan’s indifferent nature, if she didn’t set him up, he wouldn’t care about these things at all.
Therefore, this scene took place.
Jiang Fan was speechless.
He really had no interest in performing anything in public.
So he cupped his hands towards Ling Guihai and said, “My swordsmanship is mediocre, I dare not make a fool of myself in front of the elite disciples of the Myriad Swords Sect.”
“Don’t take Senior Sister Liu’s words to heart.”
But how could Ling Guihai let this slide?
Liu Qingxian’s words had put him in an awkward position in public!
If Jiang Fan did not make a move, how could he refute her words?

“Junior Brother Jiang, it doesn’t matter if you don’t give me face, but are you going to disregard the face of the Green Cloud Sect as well?”
Ling Guihai’s face looked displeased,
“All the prodigies of various sects are present here, representing the dignity of their sects.”
“You are afraid and do not fight, which will bring shame to the Green Cloud Sect.”
Good heavens, it was clearly about regaining his own face.
He even involved the sect.
With the words spoken to this extent, Jiang Fan had no choice but to comply.
He reluctantly said, “Let’s skip the fight, my cultivation is low, I’ll just demonstrate some swordsmanship.”
What Ling Guihai wanted most, of course, was to beat Jiang Fan up and show his absolute strength.
However, that would not be a fair victory.
After all, he was in the Core Formation Realm, while Jiang Fan was only in the Foundation Establishment.
Letting him practice some swordsmanship was good as well.
All the elites from various sects were present, with sharp eyes, they could tell the quality of swordsmanship at a glance.
“Fine, then please go ahead!”
Reluctantly,
Jiang Fan was forced to take action.
He stepped onto the stage.
Casually drew out his Black Sword, holding it loosely in his hand.
Since it was a demonstration, just showing a little bit was fine, no need to go all out.
This posture immediately attracted a lot of skepticism.
“There is no momentum in his sword draw, can his swordsmanship surpass Ling Guihai’s?”
“He doesn’t look like someone who practices swordsmanship.”
“When Ling Guihai drew his sword just now, he was at one with his sword, what about him?”
Ji Ruyue bit her red lips, her eyes revealing a look of disgust.
She mocked sarcastically, “Everyone, be careful.”
“If he can’t even hold his sword and it flies out, it will be very dangerous.”
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Ling Guihai also showed a trace of contempt.
Such a person, did he deserve to be compared with him in swordsmanship?
However,
The laughter was suddenly drowned out by a burst of explosive sound.
Jiang Fan had already begun displaying his swordsmanship.
“Splitting Light Sword!”
Sword Qi burst forth, striking the air in front of him, producing a rolling thunderous sound.
The closed room caused the rolling thunder to echo repeatedly, enhancing the momentum exponentially.
In an instant, it drowned out the laughter.
Everyone’s faces froze in shock.
“What just happened?”
“What made that loud noise?”
“Is it a special attribute of that sword?”
“Or is it Jiang Fan’s swordsmanship?”
As they were wondering,
Jiang Fan displayed the second sword move.
“Sunrise Over the Sea!”
This time, they saw it clearly!
A powerful Sword Qi, carrying the majesty of a dragon rushing to the sea, pierced through the air in front of him.
The explosive Sword Qi roared like thunder.
It made their ears buzz.
The decorations on the walls of the room shook and fell.
Those sitting on the floor could feel the floorboards vibrating, causing their whole bodies to feel numb.
“Is this… swordsmanship?”
“What kind of swordsmanship has such terrifying power?”
But then, the third sword move was displayed.
“Heaven and Earth Star Fall!”
An even more terrifying, overwhelmingly powerful Sword Qi surged out.
Experienced martial artists’ faces changed dramatically, exclaiming, “Open the windows! Open the windows quickly! Or we will all be deafened…”
Several martial artists near the windows hurriedly pushed them open.
Just in time.
A thunderous explosion shook the room.
Everyone felt a sharp pain in their ears, and their bodies trembled.
The powerful roar of thunder destroyed their hearing, leaving them with only piercing buzzing sounds.
After a full ten seconds, their hearing gradually returned.
Looking around.
The roof had lost large chunks of tiles, and the decorations on the walls had fallen to the floor in disarray.
The stage was also split open with huge cracks from the explosive Sword Qi.
In the blink of an eye, the room was in chaos.
And this was because the windows were opened in time, reducing the impact of the thunder explosion.
Otherwise, everyone present would have been injured!
They looked at Jiang Fan in shock, unable to believe it.
This swordsmanship was far superior to Ling Guihai’s by a significant margin!
The two were not even on the same level!
“Does the Green Cloud Sect truly have such powerful swordsmanship?”
“Even the strongest swordsmanship of the Myriad Swords Sect, which specializes in swordsmanship, may not be as marvelous as this!”
“This must be some kind of joke! Is Jiang Fan really a disciple without a Spirit Root?”
“With swordsmanship this strong, it ranks among the best in the Nine-Sect Land!”
“If he had enough cultivation, with this swordsmanship, defeating Ling Guihai and capturing the ninth place on the golden rank would be guaranteed!”
…
After this demonstration, everyone looked at Jiang Fan with a newfound respect.
No one dared to label him as a disciple without a Spirit Root anymore.
Ling Guihai’s face showed disbelief.
This swordsmanship was far superior to his.
What shocked him and everyone else the most was,
When Jiang Fan returned to his seat, Liu Qingxian punched him lightly with her fist and complained, “Why didn’t you go all out?”
Their shock, which was just about to subside, was reignited!
It turned out that Jiang Fan had performed casually just now, without being serious?
Recalling how loosely he held his sword, no one doubted Liu Qingxian’s assessment.
Ling Guihai’s face turned a little ugly.
It turned out that Liu Qingxian was right!
He was indeed inferior to Jiang Fan!
Ji Ruyue bit her red lips slightly; her previous mockery was like a boomerang that hit her in the face.
She felt quite embarrassed.
She said mockingly, “It’s just a coincidence that he knows a powerful swordsmanship.”
“In the Martial Path Realm, overall strength matters, swordsmanship is just one component.”
Everyone agreed.
Although Jiang Fan’s swordsmanship was astonishing, far surpassing Ling Guihai’s.
However, no one would think that Jiang Fan’s status was higher than Ling Guihai’s.
The latter had earned his ninth place on the golden rank through real strength!
What about Jiang Fan?
His name was unknown—or rather, he was known as the Spirit Root-less disciple throughout the Nine-Sect.
In terms of status, he couldn’t compare to Ling Guihai at all.
Therefore, after a brief moment of shock, everyone continued to flatter Ling Guihai.
Liu Qingxian couldn’t help but disdainfully say, “A bunch of opportunists!”
“Let’s see what you say when Jiang Fan’s strength improves.”
However, she said this without much confidence.
No matter how much he improved, Jiang Fan’s status wouldn’t catch up to Ling Guihai’s in the short term.
Ling Guihai’s fame was well-established.
How could Jiang Fan compete with that?
But at this moment,
A waiter hurriedly came upstairs, “Dear guests, may I ask if you know a fairy named Xia Chaoge?”
“She is looking for someone named… named…”
He momentarily forgot who she was looking for.
But everyone in the room exploded in excitement!
Xia Chaoge?
She had come as promised?
