Chapter Summary
“The fight hasn’t even started—how do you already know I can’t win?” “I think you just have nothing better to do than run your mouths!” “People like you—praising the enemy while belittling your own side… no wonder our lineage has always been looked down on!” --- Being called out like that— the girls snapped back immediately.

“Shut up, all of you!”
Xue Ziyan’s icy gaze swept over the female disciples of the Five Souls Lineage below the stage.
“The fight hasn’t even started—how do you already know I can’t win?”
“I think you just have nothing better to do than run your mouths!”
“People like you—praising the enemy while belittling your own side… no wonder our lineage has always been looked down on!”
---
Being called out like that—
the girls snapped back immediately.
“Oh please, Xue Ziyan—if you’re so capable, go beat Xiang Shengtian!”
“Exactly! Just because you’re the Grand Elder’s personal disciple, you think you’re something special?”
“Honestly… you’re just a pretty face.”
---
“Enough!”
The Five Souls Lineage Master roared in fury—
and in an instant, the entire mountain fell silent!
---
At that moment—
Shen Suping looked down at the two and said calmly:
“Are you ready?”
“Ready!”
Xue Ziyan and Xiang Shengtian locked eyes—
their gazes filled with killing intent!
“Good. I declare—the match begins!”
---
The moment her voice fell—
Xiang Shengtian’s storage ring flashed!
A high-grade spirit weapon flying sword appeared in his right hand.
He pointed the blade at Xue Ziyan and sneered.
“You had a chance to live, yet chose death.”
“Today… you won’t escape.”
“I’ll give you time—go say your last words to Tan Yun!”
---
Xue Ziyan let out a soft, mocking laugh.
“How shameless.”
“To others, you might be a top expert…”
“But to me—you’re just a worthless nobody.”
“I’ll give you time too… go say goodbye to your master.”
---
“You bitch! Let’s see if your strength matches that mouth of yours!”
Killing intent flared in Xiang Shengtian’s eyes—
and suddenly—
**another Xiang Shengtian appeared!**
Identical in every way!
Then—
**3… 4… 5…**
until—
**9 bodies!**
In an instant—
terrifying power erupted from all **9 figures**, twisting and shaking the surrounding space violently!
Clearly—
this was the power of a **Spatial Nascent Soul!**
---
“Die!”
A thunderous roar echoed!
All **9 Xiang Shengtian clones** surrounded Xue Ziyan instantly—
each palm gathering violent spiritual storms!
The void trembled violently—
as all **9 figures** struck at once!
---
“Hmph! A 9-shadow technique… is that supposed to impress me?”
Xue Ziyan’s scornful voice—
made disciples from all **9 lineages** turn pale!
They all knew—
the **Nine Shadow Technique** was a treasured art of the Holy Spirit Lineage!
Yet she dared to mock it!?
---
Just as everyone was sneering—
and just as the Five Souls Master believed she was finished—
suddenly!
He saw something unbelievable—
and shot to his feet, shouting:
“What technique is that!?”
---
Not just him—
Tantai Xuanzhong, along with all elders and lineage leaders—
were stunned!
Hundreds of thousands of disciples—
stood frozen in shock!
---
On Dragon Subduing Stage No. **2**—
Xue Ziyan’s body was engulfed in dazzling golden light!
Then—
**another figure** appeared beside her—
wrapped in emerald-green wood energy!
And that wasn’t all—
almost instantly—
**3 more figures appeared!**
* One surrounded by blue water energy
* One engulfed in flames rising **30 ft** high
* One wrapped in swirling brown earth energy
In total—
**5 bodies! 5 elements!**
---
At that moment—
only Tan Yun knew the truth—
this was the technique he had given her:
**“Five Souls Divine Sword!”**
---
“How is this possible!? How are you… faster than me!?”
Shouts of shock erupted—
from all **9 Xiang Shengtian clones**!
Because—
Xue Ziyan had…
**effortlessly dodged all 9 palm strikes!**
---
“Faster than you… what’s strange about that?”
Her voice rang out again—
as all **5 of her forms** spread across the stage!
In each of their hands—
was a mid-grade spirit flying sword!
The **5 swords** represented the **5 elements**—
and each one was her embodiment in that element!
---
“Five Souls Unite—Heaven-Slaying Divine Sword!”
All **5 Xue Ziyan forms** unleashed overwhelming killing intent—
and raised their blades to the sky!
In an instant—
the clouds above the mountain churned violently!
Storms roared!
Streams of elemental power—
each as thick as a barrel—
descended from the heavens—
and fused into the **5 swords!**
---
“Kill!”
All **5 forms** formed hand seals—
their bodies turning into phantom blurs!
They moved at extreme speed around the stage—
and in a blink—
slashed **dozens of times!**
---
In an instant—
**hundreds of sword beams!**
Each stretching **100 zhang (~330 ft)!**
Tore through space, leaving countless rifts—
as they shot toward Xiang Shengtian from every direction—
**sealing off all escape routes!**
In the blink of an eye—
Hundreds of sword beams swallowed all **9** of Xiang Shengtian’s figures, erasing them from everyone’s sight!
The destructive force was so terrifying that—
Hundreds of nearby disciples turned pale, retreating in panic, afraid of being caught in the aftermath!
---
“AHHH! BREAK FOR ME!”
A furious roar exploded from within the storm of sword light!
Suddenly—
All **9** figures of Xiang Shengtian fused back into one!
No one knew what technique he used—
But the sword in his right hand burst with light, forming a spherical energy barrier about **10 zhang** wide that enveloped his body!
He endured the relentless barrage of sword beams—
Then forcefully broke through them!
His target—
Xue Ziyan, surrounded by golden elemental energy to the east!
**He knew—that was the real body!**
---
“BOOM!”
Xiang Shengtian’s aura surged wildly—
Approaching **Level 2 of the Soul Refining Realm!**
With a single slash—
He instantly shattered the incoming **5-element sword beams** before him!
At the same time—
His protective barrier exploded into fragments!
---
“DIE!”
His roar shook the heavens!
At that exact moment—
Xue Ziyan, her long hair whipping in the wind, wrapped in golden energy—
**Swung her sword decisively!**
---
And in that fraction of a second—
Her other **4** figures, scattered across the arena—
**Vanished!**
Then reappeared instantly—
**Left • Right • Above • Behind** Xiang Shengtian!
Each one unleashed a sword strike—
From **4 different directions at once!**
---
From beginning to end—
The real Xue Ziyan…
**Had not moved even a single step!**
A cold, mocking smile lingered on her face.
---
“AAARGH!!”
“NO!!”
“SPARE ME!!!”
A scream like a slaughtered beast echoed across the arena!
Xiang Shengtian couldn’t dodge—
**His right arm—still gripping the sword—was severed instantly!**
---
“SHLK!”
Xue Ziyan, cloaked in blazing flames—
Thrust her sword forward from behind with perfect precision!
The blade pierced through his heart—
And burst out from his chest!
---
“Bzzz—”
Space trembled softly.
The **4** surrounding figures of Xue Ziyan—
Dissolved into shadows,
Then merged back into her true body.
---
Xiang Shengtian’s body trembled violently—
He staggered in place,
His left hand clutching the blood-soaked wound on his chest.
His lips quivered—
As he slowly turned his gaze toward Linghu Canghe on the jade tower.
In a faint, regretful voice, he whispered—
“I’m sorry… Master… I… have disappointed you…”
---
“Thud!”
His body collapsed—
Falling into a pool of blood.
**Dead on the spot!**
---
His eyes remained open—
Filled with resentment… and despair.
---
**Silence.**
Across the mountain—
Disciples of all **9** lineages stood frozen.
No one dared to speak.
Only the sound of heavy breathing—
And violently pounding hearts—
Echoed within the overwhelming stillness.
