Chapter 99 The Shocked Crowd
“All right, let’s do it!” Tang Siyu thought about it for a moment before agreeing.
Chu Yunfan nodded with a smile. Tang Siyu was already at the peak of the fifth level Qi Sea Stage-second only to the cla.s.s monitors of the two focus cla.s.ses, Zhang Teng and Ou Yang. Chu Yunfan wanted to use this battle to test his strength.
News of their upcoming spar session spread through the cla.s.s like wildfire. Ever since the cla.s.s-division a.s.sessment, most of the people in Cla.s.s 2 were not much different from before. Their current standing had not changed much since then. However, some of the students had made astonishing strides. Among them, the two who had made the most progress were Chu Yunfan and Tang Siyu.
Chu Yunfan had become one of the elite students of the martial arts stream during the cla.s.s-division a.s.sessment. Now, he was already one of the best among those at the top. He was a strong contender for the top few places of the top 20. Although Tang Siyu had long been an elite student and had quite a reputation within the school, people regarded her differently. She was widely recognized as a powerhouse that was only second to the cla.s.s monitors, Ou Yang and Zhang Teng.
Therefore, a battle between Chu Yunfan and Tang Siyu would surely be interesting to watch. Even the students of Cla.s.s 1 who had caught wind of the news rushed to Cla.s.s 2’s training room.
At this moment, Chu Yunfan and Tang Siyu were already in the training room and were standing facing one another. All around them, they were surrounded by the students of Cla.s.s 1, Cla.s.s 2, and even the students of other well-informed cla.s.ses.
On one of the surrounding tables, Ou Yang was standing there with his hands behind his back as he observed the two in the middle. The news of the battle had even attracted him. This was because these two people had improved at an astonishing rate, especially Tang Siyu. In the beginning, Tang Siyu clearly had been more outstanding than Chu Yunfan and there was a clear gap between them. However, now, she was actually only second to Ou Yang and was a threat to his position in Cla.s.s 2.
And then there was Chu Yunfan. Although he was currently not as strong as Tang Siyu, in Ou Yang’s eyes, Chu Yunfan posed an even greater threat than Tang Siyu. It would not be long before Chu Yunfan would be on par with him.

A few moments later, another figure appeared amongst the crowd. It was none other than the cla.s.s monitor of Cla.s.s 1, Zhang Teng.
The two cla.s.s monitors exchanged glances and immediately understood the other’s intentions. It was obvious that they took Chun Yunfan and Tang Siyu seriously and regarded them as threats. That was why they had come to check out the enemy.
“You go first!” Tang Siyu stared at Chu Yunfan with her beautiful eyes as she spoke.
Chu Yunfan did not hesitate and immediately struck out with his saber.
Clang! A blinding light flashed through the air. Following that, the Shadowless Saber slashed toward Tang Siyu.
Voom!
The air was torn apart by the Shadowless Blade that was filled with True Energy, the sound of the blade’s vibrating carrying through the air.
Chu Yunfan’s strike was fast. Not many were able to follow its movement. Some only saw a blur. Then, his saber arrived in front of Tang Siyu. Many people cried out in surprise as if they had already foreseen Tang Siyu being cut and injured.
And at this moment, Tang Siyu’s simple double-edged sword made its move. The sword’s ray met the saber’s light and blocked the incoming strike.
Clang!
A loud sound of metal clashing rang through the air.
Chu Yunfan was a little shocked. He knew how powerful his strike was. It was so powerful that even the Armored Saber-tooth Tiger had been forced to step back. However, Tang Siyu barely budged. After a stream of True Energy had flowed through her body just once, she had managed to block his strike. Chu Yunfan immediately knew his physical advantage, which he was so proud of, was not much of an advantage in front of a martial artist like Tang Siyu who was far stronger than him.
The other party could rely on her profound martial arts base to deal with him.
Chu Yunfan took a step forward. At the same time, the saber in his hand slashed downward. It had immediately followed after the earlier slash. This was the Earth Splitting Saber Technique. One slash after another, the momentum of the saber was built up and was endless. Each slash was more powerful and terrifying than the previous one. Clang!
Clang!
Clang! The two sides continued to exchange blows and the sounds of metal clashing continued as well.
Gao Hongzhi, who was watching from the side, instantly saw the difference between him and Tang Siyu. He also frequently exchanged blows with Chu Yunfan. Although he was known for his innate divine strength, after exchanging three blows with Chu Yunfan, he would often begin to fall behind. After ten moves, the approaching ending would be within sight. If Chu Yunfan was ruthless, he could even end the battle within ten moves.
However, Tang Siyu was able to spar with Chu Yunfan in a lively manner. In the blink of an eye, more than ten moves had pa.s.sed, but she was not suppressed in the slightest. As for the others, what they were lamenting was not this, but that Chu Yunfan was actually able to hold his ground against Tang Siyu.
“The two of them have ascended. Chu Yunfan is already at the fourth level Qi Sea Stage, and Tang Siyu has already stepped into the fifth!” Ou Yang commented as he watched the battle between the two sides.
He was quite surprised. He remembered that the strength of these two had not been at this level just half a month ago-especially Chu Yunfan who had made a breakthrough during the battle with that monster. Many people had witnessed this. At that time, Chu Yunfan’s speed and strength suddenly increased. Everyone saw it and knew that he had made a breakthrough. But they had not expected that Chu Yunfan would make another breakthrough after just two weeks.
To break through twice in a month—such a speed was indeed shocking.
Moreover, what surprised Ou Yang even further was that Chu Yunfan’s foundation was not shaky in the slightest. Chu Yunfan’s control of True Energy showed that his foundation was rock solid.
On one hand, Ou Yang’s eyes were filled with amazement, while on the other side, Zhang Teng’s eyes flashed with malice. If these two continued on like this, would they not be on equal footing with him very soon? One Ou Yang was already enough, do not let there be another two. Being surpa.s.sed by Chu Yunfan and Tang Siyu was something he had never thought of. How was such a thing possible?
The other students had also seen through the cultivation of the two combatants, but it was exactly because of this that they were even more amazed. Chu Yunfan, who was at the fourth level Qi Sea Stage, could actually hold up against Tang Siyu who was at the peak of the fifth level Qi Sea Stage. Chu Yunfan’s combat ability was simply astonishing! If people were still wondering if Chu Yunfan was qualified to compete for the top 20, then this battle quashed those doubts in their hearts, letting them know that the rumors indeed rang true. Although Chu Yunfan was only at the fourth level Qi Sea Stage, in terms of combat strength, he was no less inferior than someone in the fifth level Qi Sea Stage.
The two combatants were also shocked in their hearts. For Tang Siyu, who was usually not worried about those in the same stage, had not expected to be pushed to this extent by Chu Yunfan, who was only at the fourth level Qi Sea Stage. She had not taken it to heart when she heard Gao Hongzhi say that Chu Yunfan’s strength was boundless. But now, she realized Chu Yunfan’s true strength was in a real fight. If it were not for the special cultivation methods she trained in, she might even have been defeated.
