Chapter 266: Simulated Artistic Conception!

"This... what is going on? Could it be that Ye Yuan has really cultivated the 'Imperial Law True Scripture'?"

"The 'Imperial Law True Scripture' is extremely difficult to cultivate. The hardships Senior Brother Luo endured to reach his current level are unmatched! But Ye Yuan executed it so effortlessly!"

"Could it be that Ye Yuan is one of those who are born with knowledge? Otherwise, at his age, how could he have such attainments in both the Way of the Sword and the Way of Calligraphy?"

The disciples below the stage did not understand the Way of Calligraphy and thought Ye Yuan was deliberately competing with Luo Chengfeng in calligraphy.

Only Luo Chengfeng on the stage knew that what Ye Yuan displayed was not the Way of Calligraphy at all!

But if it wasn't the Way of Calligraphy, why did it have such formidable power?

Luo Chengfeng was also a proud man. Seeing Ye Yuan repeatedly copy and break his techniques, a surge of unwillingness to admit defeat rose from the depths of his heart!

"Dragons and Snakes Following the Brush!"

"Dragon Flying and Phoenix Dancing!"

"Penetrating the Wood Three-Tenths of an Inch!"

...

One technique after another, the arena was filled with surging energy, the momentum extremely grand!

If not for the protective formation, the arena would have been dismantled several times over.

Yet opposite Luo Chengfeng, Ye Yuan also unhurriedly used his sword to unleash techniques identical to Luo Chengfeng's.

"Dragons and Snakes Following the Brush!"

"Dragon Flying and Phoenix Dancing!"

"Penetrating the Wood Three-Tenths of an Inch!"

...

Streams of energy clashed against each other and then annihilated!

Compared to yesterday's duel with Zhang Jing, this one was even more thrilling!

In yesterday's duel, Ye Yuan relied on his formidable sword intent to resolve each move.

But in today's duel with Luo Chengfeng, Ye Yuan was clearly not as effortless as yesterday, yet those identical techniques were even more captivating!

Ye Yuan stood there like a mirror; no matter how Luo Chengfeng exerted himself, he could reflect it back.

Such a duel added an extra layer of power to Ye Yuan.

Luo Chengfeng, usually elegant and refined, now also felt a rising irritation.

His techniques grew stronger and more difficult with each one. He wanted to see if Ye Yuan could really copy all his techniques!

Being able to defeat a half-step Condensation at the peak of Liquid Nine showed how powerful Luo Chengfeng was.

Later on, Luo Chengfeng's techniques became so powerful that the audience below felt suffocated!

"I never thought that in just a few months, Senior Brother Luo's strength would have grown to this level! Compared to the last competition, he's practically a new person!"

"Yes, in the last competition he still seemed a bit immature, but now he's very seasoned! And he hasn't broken through in half a year; he must be able to break through to half-step Condensation at any time, right?"

"Exactly! At Senior Brother Luo's level, they're no longer in a hurry to advance. The more artistic conception they can comprehend at the Liquid realm, the greater the benefits for their future!"

"Yes, I wonder how Senior Brother Luo's current strength compares to Senior Brother Tianyu. It seems he was saving his energy to fight Senior Brother Tianyu, but now he's been blocked by Ye Yuan."

"Speaking of which, this Ye Yuan is terrifyingly strong! If he breaks through to Liquid Nine, he might even be able to fight Senior Brother Ti Wujiu!"

"Heh, who would have thought our sect would produce such a freak! No matter the outcome of this competition, the next one will be Ye Yuan's world!"

For a genius like Luo Chengfeng, the time interval between competitions was enough for him to make great progress.

For geniuses at their level, the comparison was always about how much they improved. If I improve more than you, it means I'm more talented!

If the pace of improvement slows down, one is naturally eliminated.

Take Cheng Wu among the elite disciples; his strength was very formidable, but compared to others, his improvement slowed down, so he naturally became weaker.

Yet such substantial progress was still unable to overcome a newcomer at Liquid Four!

"Writing as if Guided by a Divine Spirit!"

After a stormy exchange of attacks, Luo Chengfeng finally used his strongest trump card!

This technique, which Luo Chengfeng had only recently comprehended, was originally his ace in the hole against Tianyu, but now he was forced to use it by Ye Yuan.

As the technique was unleashed, the wind and clouds changed abruptly, and the arena was filled with powerful, invisible energy. A single touch would send one flying off the stage!

Yet opposite him, Ye Yuan lightly swung his sword, and the technique "Writing as if Guided by a Divine Spirit" was executed in an instant!

But no one, including Luo Chengfeng, noticed that Ye Yuan had added something extra to this technique!

"Burning Yuan Power!"

As Ye Yuan's "Writing as if Guided by a Divine Spirit" was unleashed, the battle situation on the stage changed dramatically!

Ye Yuan's energy, like a whirlwind sweeping away clouds, continuously devoured Luo Chengfeng's attacks.

Luo Chengfeng's expression changed; he hadn't expected this to happen.

Previously, he had been bombarding relentlessly, but now Ye Yuan counterattacked, catching him off guard!

The attack enhanced by Burning Yuan Power was overwhelmingly powerful. Luo Chengfeng had no time to defend!

Countless invisible streams of energy surged toward him, directly breaking through his protective Yuan power and sending him flying.

Luo Chengfeng was merely knocked off the stage and wasn't seriously injured.

Ye Yuan had been measured and didn't burn too much Yuan power.

Luo Chengfeng adjusted his posture mid-air and landed gracefully.

The audience below was dead silent; no one knew what to say.

If the result of Zhang Jing's match was barely acceptable, this match's outcome was truly unexpected!

The top three core disciples represented a kind of pinnacle in the Youyun Sect!

In the minds of all core disciples, only the top three or other core disciples could defeat the top three.

No one else could even think about it!

Because these three held their positions, it meant their improvement speed surpassed everyone else's.

Once left behind by such geniuses, one would only fall further behind.

No one had ever imagined that the top three could lose to someone at Liquid Four!

Take Luo Chengfeng, for example; his strength was enough to challenge an ordinary Condensation Triple!

Someone like Su Yulin was no match for Luo Chengfeng.

Did that mean Ye Yuan's strength could overcome an opponent a full major realm higher?

This... this was too incredible!

Luo Chengfeng sighed softly and cupped his hands to Ye Yuan, saying, "Thank you for going easy, Junior Brother Ye!"

"Not at all! Senior Brother Luo has gone so far in the Way of Calligraphy; I admire that! To be honest, I feel I won undeservedly." Ye Yuan smiled.

Luo Chengfeng's expression shifted slightly, unable to suppress his curiosity, and asked, "Junior Brother Ye, where did your techniques come from? Have you really cultivated the 'Imperial Law True Scripture'?"

Ye Yuan shook his head and smiled, "No! Those techniques were all imitations after I saw your techniques! This is called... Simulated Artistic Conception!"
