The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Her real strength had always been her talent for swordplay. She had taken it up as a passion and now it was her secret weapon, her strength and gave her an edge above the rest.

Since none of the opponents she had fought earlier were so powerful, she hadn't needed to show her competence in swordsmanship. She had easily moved ahead using her regular skills and defeating her opponents without using her main weapon. Luckily there had been no need to use it and she was sure nobody would be expecting it from her. This secret element was something that would become an advantage for her. She knew it. Deep in her heart, she knew that she could defeat Dan, with a little smartness and cleverness.

Now standing and facing Dan in the combat, she knew she couldn't hide her real competence anymore. Dan was stronger than her in vital energy, so she had to rely on her skill with the sword to compensate for her weaker vital energy. Her secret weapon had to be revealed, otherwise there would be no chance to win. She would lose the opportunity to be triumphant and end up losing to the boastful man.

With so many thoughts running in her mind, Sarah went all out. She felt herself get filled with a new and strong surge to fight and win. Raising her sword high in the air, her mannerism changed suddenly and her attack seemed more ferocious and aggressive than what she had been doing till now. Her eyes were filled with sharpness like two streaks of sharp sword radiance glistening as they moved closer towards their target.

Instantly, her body and hands seemed to have integrated with the long sword in her hand. Her hands glided like the wings of the eagle, elegant yet strong, seemingly delicate but firm in their hold.

Sensing the change in Sarah's demeanor, Dan was shocked. It didn't take him long to realize that though he was stronger than Sarah when it came to vital energy, Sarah's cultivation base in swordsmanship was higher than his. It might be a little but it was above his. He was surprised at her strength and ability, and filled with awe for the woman before him.

‘This woman had been hiding her swordsmanship cultivation base till now. | should immediately use my most powerful skill to defeat her. If | am defeated by her, how will | face the other outer disciples in the future!" he thought. He was not ready to be insulted by a woman, though she was much more talented than many of the other disciples. She was a worthy opponent but Dan was in no mood to relent or be defeated.

Without any hesitation, he collected all the vital energy within him and then released it, making it encircle him completely. His broad sword was also attached to the strong vital energy force which had encapsulated him.

He held his sword with one hand and let it sway over Sarah's head. It was a quick move by him, but Sarah was quicker enough and was able to save herself from his sword. She was not going to be affected by his show of power.

Being wrapped in the strong vital energy, his sword was extremely powerful and the momentum of the attack he made seemed as if a large group of army was engaged in a battle! "Huh! I must say, though you're good at swordsmanship, my vital energy quality is obviously better than yours. Don't think that you can defeat me. | can still suppress you!" With a sly smile plastered on his face, Dan looked at Sarah. His eyes were mocking her. Those stares were making her fume with anger and hatred.

Time seemed to have frozen and they seemed to have forgotten that all the disciples were watching them. It was like they both were the only ones who mattered and only one would be left standing.

With the momentum of Dan's attack, Sarah's hair kept being blown up by the wind of the sword energy. However, she wasn't a person to get panic or scared easily.

She kept her nerves calm and stared at Dan. Observing all his moves, she was waiting for the right chance to make the right move.

She realized that she had to make a quick and strong attack which no one would expect from her. Suddenly, she raised the long sword and thrust it at Dan.

Her swordsmanship hadn't seemed anything special to all around. "You think you can defeat me. But now you will see, ' she thought to herself.

The moment she thrust the sword ahead, a streak of cold flash radiated in front of her. To everyone's surprise, the sword radiance split into two, then into four. Swiftly it shattered into countless streaks of sword radiance.

Being surrounded by the sword radiance, Sarah summoned up all her vital energy. She looked with a smile at Dan's shocked face and said, "Dan, get ready. Let me show you the power of my sword intent!" Next moment, the air around her imploded into pieces by the radiance emerging from her weapon. The area around her was covered by the intent realm of her sword. It looked as if she had merged with the sword and stood as one.

"Oh my God! What did she just do? Did she use level one-and-a-half sword intent?" someone shouted. Immediately there was a hue and cry in the crowd. People were shocked and amazed by the sudden move made by Sarah. She had done something which no one had ever anticipated.

Seeing the whirlpool of power before him, Dan's eyes were filled with fear. He never expected that the woman in front of him had already comprehended level one-and-a-half sword intent. This was totally unexpected. He wasn't prepared for this at all.

The sword intent level possessed by Sarah was enough to compensate her disadvantage in vital energy cultivation base. She had left everyone dumbfounded.

Austin had been hiding in the crowd and watching everything from the beginning. He was in a state of shock too. 'l never expected that from her! She has already comprehended level one-and-a-half sword intent! Although the sword intent she has comprehended is half a level lower than what | did, she is good enough, ' he thought.

Sensing the overwhelming sword intent, Dan realized that he was losing ground. He had to do something soon or he would be the one ashamed in front of all the disciples. He realized how foolish it was to underestimate someone like Sarah.
