A Genius Of Era, Xi Jing

Everyone in the Competition Hall looked in the entrance direction.

There, the unparalleled beautiful young lady was walking quietly to her seat where Wu Yong, Ge Guang, and Mo Yan sitting amidst the countless gazes and noise of conversations.

As Yu Xuan looked in her direction, he saw a young lady that seemed to have come out of a painting. She had an absolutely beautiful face without the veil covering, which also looked indifferent as if a clear and deep pool, she was not cold, but calm. She was clad in reddish-white garments that were even whiter than the snow, yet red like a ruby, with the white part dominating.

At her waist, was hanging a slim red sword, the scabbard and the hilt of the sword were ruby-colored and emitted a thirst blood aura, no matter who looked at it they would indescribably get the feeling of fighting and slaughtering through the battlefields.

A Genius of Era, Xi Jing!

"Gorgeous!" Yang Kai exclaimed. His subordinates only stared unblinkingly.

"Fairy!" Le Sheng and his subordinates exclaimed almost at the same.

Gulp!

Meng Hou gulped his saliva upon seeing the coming Xi Jing.

Fei Wang stared in a froze.

Guan Yi couldn't utter a word.

Lin Tong stared at her red slim sword.

Even Wu Yong and Ge Guang were in a daze for a while.

Mo Yan was heart skipped for a while.

Everyone in the seating area felt like being in a fantasy.

"These disciples are like a bumpkin." Ling Mei shook her head.

"Everyone only knows that she had joined a sect last six months, but no one had seen her before. It is no surprise that they will have such expressions." Wang Yuan Ji who was sitting beside also shook her head. Although she could not compare with this Genius of the Era, she had self-confidence.

"A youth spirit, ahzz." Chen Mo closed his eyes in lamenting. He indeed felt like them when he was that age before he parted his way with a lover.

"Ahem, everyone, since all the competitors arrive, let's begin the competition!" Wei Yin's voice rang through the entire Competition Hall, waking everyone up immediately.

Moreover, upon hearing his words, all the Competition Hall turned silent immediately.

"Where is that Senior Brother?"When the disciples who were sitting nearby Yu Xuan returned to their normal states, they seemed to realize something as they looked at the left and right but did not see a knowledgable youth anymore.

Yu Xuan was not surprised about this situation when everyone was paying attention to Xi Jing, a Genius of the Era, that youth secretly left as if he was afraid to get caught.

...

"The last day of the competition. Each of you will fight three rounds, and who has the best result will be the top 1."

"Let's not waste time. For the first round, we have Ge Guang and Wu Yong."

Wu Yong and Ge Guang went up to the stage quickly.

"Brother Wu, I ask for your guidance." Ge Guang politely said, indicating the action of a righteous person.

A righteous person was talented but not arrogant, capable but not looking down on anyone, generous and polite.

"Brother Ge, I'd like to see how much you improve in these eight months." Wu Yong revealed a light smile, showing his gentleness.

As Wu Yong and Ge Guang first exchanged words, the Elders and attendees promptly nodded their heads. After all, this was righteous action that everyone should have, not being arrogant like in the previous battles.

"As expected of special geniuses, they don't have a trace of arrogant like Yang Kai and Le Sheng."

"This is the action of righteous people, we must view them as our model!"

"That's right, arrogant people do not deserve to be in a righteous sect."

"It is okay to be arrogant, I don't mind. But to be too arrogant, annoying me."

"I agree, arrogant but not too over."

...

"Brother Wu, please."

"Brother Ge, please."

As their voice faded, a calm aura surged from Ge Guang's body. It was from the peak of the 5th-stage Foundation Establishment Realm, and its aura was exceedingly harmful inside the calm. The faces of the disciples in the searing area changed, and even Yu Xuan creased his eyebrows. This aura was indeed not simple. It hid the harm inside the calm.

"Strong!" Excitement swelled up on Wu Yong's face, followed by an excited voice.

Suddenly, a sharp wind aura surged from Wu Yong's body, and following that Wu Yong flickered toward Ge Guang.

Ge Guang was prepared, he had already activated his technique to increase his speed as he followed suit.

Phew! Phew! Pa! Pa!

The sound of wind and water strike had been heard from the stage.

Everyone in the seating area didn't dare to blink their eyes lest they missed the tiny importance of the fight.

Wu Yong's punch was formed into a fan-like as it was too quick, one move after another, one wind pusher after the next. Each attack was aimed at Ge Guang's fatal spot. If it were anyone else, they would have fallen in a few moves.

But Ge Guang wasn't just anyone. Up till this point, Ge Guang had yet to fall disadvantaged.

Activating his earth-grade technique, Banana Leaf, the water path primeval essence was formed into a banana leaf-like robe, covering Ge Guang's whole body to welcome Wu Yong's Fan Punch Technique.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Phew! Phew! Phew!

The fan punch resonated like the rain hitting upon the banana leaves in an endless cycle. The pair's fan punch and leaf punch clashed at least four to five times in just a blink of an eye.

"Take this. Gathering Five Fans!"

Five fans evolved into one, when it opened, the sharp wind pushed an opponent away, and when it folded, the velocity wind pull an opponent toward a fan.

Hoot!

When a fan pulled, the banana leaf robe was tightened.

When a fan pushed, the banana leaf robe was loosened but did not leave Ge Guang's body.

"Give it up."

Ge Guang's banana leaf robe was extended toward Wu Yong. Gathering Five Fans had a smaller size than the banana lead robe by two times, it could not stop the coming of the banana leaf robe.

"Open! Open! Open!"

Wu Yong changed the strategy from pulling and pushing to pushing only. As a result, the banana leaf could not advance anymore.

Both of them were evenly matched, if this situation continued, no one would the winner.

And the fight took ten minutes before both of them used up their primeval essence. In the end, both of them were drawn.

...

"Both of them are good seeds, it seems that your Wind Hall and Water Hall will have more outstanding disciples for the coming inner disciple test." Chen Mo said to two Elders from Wind Hall and Water Hall.

Both of them nodded their heads, "Our Halls are lucky. The coming inner disciple test will be interesting."

Among 20 Halls in the outer court of the Five Elements Sect, Wind Hall and Water Hall were not average, but not the best either. They were in the top 5 and 6.

"Ay, such good seeds, why don't they join my Battle Hall?" Ling Mei said with pity.

"Sister Ling, the Battle Hall is the most gathering place for the geniuses, you still want all the geniuses of a sect to join your Battle Hall?" Wang Yuan Ji glared at the pity look Ling Mei.

"Sister Wang, my Battle Hall has the hardest work, we need more people." Ling Mei innocently said.

...

"For the second round, we have Xi Jing and Mo Yan."

Ge Guang and Wu Yong needed to rest and restore their primeval essence for while.

Two beautiful young ladies slowly walked into the stage, and many held their breaths.

"It is such a great fortune to ask the guidance from a Genius of Era." Mo Yan opened her beautiful lips and said politely.

"My little experience is not worth mentioning. It is me to ask for your guidance." Xi Jing opened her small red lips in reply.

"Is that her voice? Such a smooth and sweet voice!"

"Oh, I want to hear more!"

"I won't forget this voice in my life."

"I will take this voice to my dream tonight."

Every action of Xi Jing would drive the disciples to be crazy. This was why she rarely appeared.

...

"Shall we begin?" Mo Yan did not bother the crowd, she once experienced these feelings, but in front of Xi Jing, her limelight seemed to be covered. However, she was not sad, instead, she took the initiative to help Xi Jing from this situation by distracting her to start the fight.

Xi Jing felt better upon hearing her words, before joining the competition, she learned that a genius was an arrogant type, but seeing Mo Yan was polite to her, she had to view her from a new aspect.

"Sure!"

A sharp sword aura surged from Xi Jing's body, it was the aura of a 5th-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, yet it was shutting the noise around the seating area as if it turned into a life and death battlefield, one could not help but be serious.

"Such a sharp aura! It seems that your sword path attainment was not normal anymore, you reach Master attainment?" Mo Yan asked with a smile, but be shocked inwardly, attainment was the hardest aspect of cultivation. Even she did not reach a Master's attainment yet.

Xi Jing just nodded.

"Master attainment?"

"Such a talent! Deserve to be a Genius of the Era!"

"She will be the top 1 in this competition without a doubt!"

...

Without caring about the sound from the seating area, the wooden sword of Xi Jing has already drawn out, and an incomparably sharp whistling sound came from it and struck the place ahead of Mo Yan. The impact generated by it wasn't all that strong, but it was particularly domineering and came attacking directly at Mo Yan.

Mo Yan was prepared, before the wooden sword could strike her, she became a light shadow as she swiftly dodged to the left in a split second.

As she appeared again, her eyes were shocked as she didn't expect that her fastest movement technique was unable to dodge the aura of the sword. There was no trace of the sword marks on her body, but she felt great pain from inside.

Those who were watching from the seating area paid great attention to this fight, but none of them could catch a glimpse of her sword technique. Only the Elders could.

However, Mo Yan wasn't a random character, although she felt pain, she could hold it.

"Graceful Light!"

Mo Yan was a Light Path Cultivator, her method was fast and precise, once her Graceful Light was used, a light streak flew out from her index, pointing at Xi Jing.

Xi Jing was calm as he stroked her wooden sword to greet the coming light streak.

Swoosh!

Xi Jing took only one strike to break a light streak.

However, Mo Yan was not there anymore, she became a light shadow as she moved around the stage, at the same time, a light streak would fly out constantly. If it were Wu Yong and Ge Guang, it would be a great fight, but in front of Xi Jing, the countless light streaks were not a thread, she could handle it without difficulty.

"Light Gaze!"

From Mo Yan's eyes, two light streaks flew out, they were even faster than the normal ones.

Ding!

With a sharp aura, Xi Jing cut them without difficulty.

"My Light Gaze is actually not enough?"

The result felt unfathomable to Mo Yan.

Light Gaze was her strongest offensive technique, but to think that it would not even let Xi Jing have a difficult time.

"The speed and destruction are indeed impressive. It seems that I need to use my technique."

From the start, Xi Jing did not use any techniques yet, just her simple sword moves were enough to force Mo Yan to use her strongest offensive technique. She decided to use her technique at this moment meant that she wished to finish this fight.

"Night Crescent!"

Xi Jing beautifully swung her right hand. A blade's afterimage expanded out like a crescent moon and caged Mo Yan within despite she was still activating her movement technique.

Boom! Boom!

Mo Yan gathered the last of her strength and released countless light streaks.

Peng!

With her arm numbed, Mo Yan was forced to the edge of the stage with just half a step before stepping out of bounds.

"I lost." Mo Yan had tried her best, but in the end, she still was not Xi Jing's match, as a result, she wasn't forcing herself anymore.

...

In the third round, Xi Jing faced Wu Yong. Wu Yong Fan Punch technique was broken by Xi Jing without difficulty. In the end, he lost.

In the fourth round, Ge Guang faced Mo Yan. Both of them possessed outstanding earth-grade techniques, and in the end, they were drawn.

In the fifth round, Xi Jing faced Ge Guang. Ge Geang's banana leaf robe was like paper in front of Xi Jing, in the end, he lost.

In the sixth round, Wu Yong faces Mo Yan. Both of them were drawn.

"Xi Jing wins!"

Wei Yin looked at Xi Jing and announced the result.

The crowd went up in an uproar, and all eyes were on Xi Jing. All kinds of feelings were present: admiration, expectation, and envy.

"I know she will be the top 1." Yang Kai was praising.

"Hmph! I know it before you." Le Sheng immediately rebutted.

"Hmph! You want to fight?" Le Sheng's words ruined his good mood.

"C'mon! Who is afraid?"

...

"As expected of a person from Central Hall." Ling Mei nodded.

"This good seed will cause the commotion when she joins the inner sect." Wang Yuan Ji also nodded.

In conclusion.

Xi Jing was the top 1.

Wu Yong, Ge Guang, and Mo Yan were the top 2.

Ge Yao, a little sister of Ge Guang, was in the top 5.
