The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Go to hell! Dan shouted.

His face looked cruel as all the vital energy inside his body flowed into his wide sword continuously that he was pointing at Sarah's direction. A second after that, he was already on top of Sarah, ready to strike.

With her great reflexes, Sarah was able to get her sword into position. Her aura followed, and it filled the space she was in, making her move smoother and more forceful.

Then, an extremely powerful sword radiance shot out from the sword she was already holding. It was aimed directly at Dan, who showed no reaction towards the attack.

The aura around Sarah also started to stir, and after a while, it followed the sword that shot towards Dan.

Aloud crack was then heard when both the attacks reached its destination.

Sarah was not only able to deflect Dan's attack, but she was also able to damage Dan's sword. 'l couldn't believe it, * he thought to himself, clutching his now powerless sword.

A cultivator's intent didn't only contain the cultivator's vital energy force of his own, but it was also connected to the vital energy of the universe.

Dan's vital energy base of was very solid. Only a few cultivators at his level had a stronger vital energy than him. His sword skill was also excellent—the Trembling Earth Sword Skill was in the third grade. He practiced this skill for years and even started to learn sword intent. But his sword intent still hadn't completely formed. Because of this, he was totally overcome by Sarah's one and a half level sword intent.

Anger and frustration were burning in Dan's chest. Being so consumed by it, he didn't quickly realize that wounds were appearing in his body. His clothes also fell off from the intensity of the attack, exposing his skin. Bits and pieces of fabric were floated around him like butterflies. "All of these, caused by Sarah's one and a half level sword intent, ' he thought, shaking.

The sword in Dan's hand was becoming heavier. Its state was worse than what Dan thought—it was rendered totally useless by Sarah. It wasn't as swift as it was moments ago, and power was totally sucked out of it.

Despite blood gushing from his many wounds, Dan was unwilling to concede and admit defeat. 'A girl could not possibly defeat me!" he angrily thought to himself, breathing deeply and poising himself up for another attack. He couldn't be humiliated like this, and he couldn't be ruled out the top ten list.

But as time went on, his sword became heavier and heavier until it became a burden for him to hold. Also, more and more wounds appeared in his body. While he was adamant on continuing the fight, he knew that if he did not stop, he could die. If he didn't, there was a high chance that the damage he would take would permanently disable him and he would not be able to improve his cultivation in the future.

After weighing the advantages and the disadvantages of his plan, Dan sighed and dropped his sword. He addressed Sarah, even if he was unwilling to, and said, "I lose." The extreme agony contorted Dan's handsome face into something scary.

"Thank you for admitting defeat,” Sarah said politely, applauding Dan's decision.

She learned the one and a half level sword intent not too long ago and she knew that it was not solid enough. While she struggled to fight Dan, she gave her utmost best and hearing Dan concede made her overjoyed and confident.

After that, she finally started to relax. Exhaustion was all she could feel as her more than half of her vital energy had been consumed by the sword intent she released.

Since everything depends on a cultivator's vital energy, Sarah couldn't do anything but sigh. 'At least the battle is now over, ' she said to herself, set on regaining what she lost.

If she had more vital energy, it would be probably not as difficult as it was to power the sword intent.

So it was a good thing that Dan conceded first. If the fight continued, she would have used up all her vital energy and she wouldn't be able to continue using her sword intent.

'l guess that is the advantage of having a high vital energy, ' she said to herself, chuckling silently.

"Sarah successfully survives Dan! Sarah wins! Hail our new tenth placer, Sarah!" Elder Xing shouted, announcing the fight's result.

Immediately, the outer disciples started to discuss among themselves. They never expected that the previous top tenth, Dan Tang, was actually defeated, let alone defeated by a female cultivator.

Upon hearing the announcement, Dan felt so ashamed of himself and his skills that he left the Martial Arts Square as soon as he got the chance. The outer disciples couldn't help but feel bad for him since before going into the fight, he believed that he was more than capable of defeating Sarah.

From then on, Dan started to shut himself out. He would rarely come out and took every second to cultivate himself, planning to find another chance to avenge his shame today.

After Sarah had successfully been ranked at the top tenth, she walked to the left of the fighting court and sat down on the chair which Dan occupied before their fight.

Austin, Evan and Herbert were all in the crowd and watched the fight from the beginning to the end.

From the very beginning, Austin's gaze was focused on the left side of the arena, where the top ten cultivators were seated.

And out of the ten figures, Austin focused his gaze on one cultivator, as always.

This one was ordinary-looking, probably aged of twenty or so. His seemingly non-assuming facade was bizarre for a top ten cultivator.

If he was hidden among the crowd, he definitely would not draw any attention. Simple, and no hullabaloo at all.

It was this man who encouraged Austin to attend the Top Ten Outer Disciples Ranking Challenge when the first time they saw each other.

And it was this man who told him that the top three of this Challenge would have the opportunity to be directly promoted to be a principal disciple.

The man was now up there, sitting quietly, his rank prominently displayed in front of him.
