Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 372 - 48 Hua Jingyang vs Yan Qingshuang

"This battle will determine the champion of the Three Sects Tournament! Who knows which of the two is more skillful!"

"Hua Jingyang is so confident; he must have absolute certainty. He is the young ruler who awakened the Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul and has records of defeating Awakening Vein First Layer experts. I think the first place undoubtedly belongs to him!"

"Not necessarily. Yan Qingshuang has awakened the Nine-star Sword Martial Soul and achieved perfection in Human Sword Integration. She has yet to show her true strength! Don’t forget, swordsmen love winning against stronger opponents, especially a genius swordsman like Yan Qingshuang."

Seeing Hua Jingyang and Yan Qingshuang step onto the arena, the spectators began hotly discussing.

One is the young king of his generation, who has awakened the Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul!

One is a prodigy swordsman who has achieved perfection in Human Sword Integration!

Many were evaluating who between the two is stronger, and who will emerge victorious in this clash!

The supporters of both sides were evenly matched, leaving the outcome indeterminate.

So far, both had maintained undefeated records and had yet to reveal their true strength.

No one knew what kind of power they were hiding or what devastating techniques they possessed!

On the stage.

Hua Jingyang stood with his hands behind his back, exuding raw dominance. The broad arena seemed insignificant in his presence, as if unable to contain him.

"Qingshuang, you may strike first."

Hua Jingyang smiled lightly at Yan Qingshuang.

Yan Qingshuang’s delicate brows furrowed.

Being underestimated, despite their equal standing, irked her immensely.

Buzz!

With a gesture, the Zhanqing Longsword instantly flew into Yan Qingshuang’s hand!

In an instant, an overwhelming sword aura surged skyward, radiating in all directions, tearing the clouds above into a massive hole. Her figure embodied the essence of a sword, her presence sharp and unstoppable!

Many spectators felt their scalps tingle, a deep sense of crisis, as though a sword hovered above their heads!

"Then I won’t hold back."

Yan Qingshuang’s gaze flashed. Her figure instantly closed tens of steps, appearing above Hua Jingyang, slicing downward with a single strike!

Swish!

An incredibly splendid and razor-sharp sword qi materialized abruptly, slicing toward Hua Jingyang. The overwhelming sword force made the air above the arena surge wildly, as if the heavens were collapsing!

"Impressive swordsmanship!"

Hua Jingyang smiled faintly, raising his right hand in a simple, sweeping motion to counter.

Despite its simplicity, the action held the grandeur of a towering mountain.

BOOM!

A thunderous explosion resounded, echoing like the fury of nine skies. The previously resilient arena, bearing countless battles with mere scratches, cracked open in the center with a massive fissure over ten meters long!

"Such exaggerated destructive power! Completely different from the previous matches!"

Someone exclaimed in shock.

Yan Qingshuang paused mid-air, stepping lightly several times to stabilize herself. Her sword aura intensified, her frosty eyes locking firmly onto Hua Jingyang.

"Take another strike from me, ’Cloud and Sunset Shattering’!"

Swish!

A dazzling streak of Startling Swallow Sword Energy burst forth, radiant and impossibly fast, resembling a fragment of the heavens itself descending!

"Excellent!"

Hua Jingyang’s eyes gleamed with appreciation as his essence energy surged. His fingers spread wide, radiating fierce flame light, forming a fiery giant hand that reached directly for the incoming sword energy.

CRACK!

The sword energy clashed against the fiery hand, hesitated for a split second, then shattered completely.

The fiery hand, however, did not relent, continuing to expand with the wind, dragging a flaming trail as it lunged toward Yan Qingshuang, aiming to capture her!

Suspended mid-air, Yan Qingshuang had no way to avoid it. Her gaze sharpened as the perfected state of Human Sword Integration erupted fully. Unmatched brilliance extended from her azure longsword, shocking all observers!

"Green Lotus Sword!"

With a swing of her azure longsword, a green sword qi shaped like lotus petals surged forward. Under everyone’s frozen gazes, it struck the fiery hand heavily.

BOOM!

The air rippled violently, piercing through the fiery hand. The residual blade force shot straight toward Hua Jingyang’s direction.

Hua Jingyang’s brows raised as he floated back with a smoke-like agility.

BAM!

He shattered the remaining energy with a single palm before raising his head to look at Yan Qingshuang, his smile warm:

"Is this your Green Lotus Sword Technique? Truly impressive. But its power falls short—shall we continue?"

Yan Qingshuang frowned: "You haven’t gained the upper hand either."

Hua Jingyang nodded: "In that case, within ten moves, I’ll have you yield willingly. Next, I’ll utilize martial techniques—you’d better be careful."

Feeling repeatedly underestimated, Yan Qingshuang was vexed. Her tone turned icy:

"Hua Jingyang, I hope you show your true power, or you’ll lose to me in the next round. Green Lotus Sword Technique has far more to offer!"

As she spoke, the surrounding air buzzed, vibrating intensely. Behind her, a sword shadow enveloped by nine gleaming stars materialized!

BOOM!

With the Divine Bridge connecting her and her martial soul, an awe-inspiring surge of sword aura erupted.

The Nine-star Sword Martial Soul became nearly tangible, emitting beams of radiant sword light that stung everyone’s eyes!

"The Nine-star Sword Martial Soul! Such astonishing sword aura!"

"Yan Qingshuang has indeed mastered the Divine Bridge! This is her true strength—earlier, she was merely testing!"

Feeling the surge in Yan Qingshuang’s momentum, the spectators fell into shock.

"This is beyond anything we can comprehend!"

Chen Lingyu gasped.

The prior clash’s intensity had already left her heart pounding.

In the end, it was only a warmup!

On the arena.

Yan Qingshuang unleashed her martial soul, her essence energy operating at full force, pushing her battle prowess to a new peak before initiating a ferocious assault on Hua Jingyang!

"Green Lotus Stealing Beauty!"

Her figure flickered, closing within ten steps of Hua Jingyang, her sword gleaming with vibrant green light as it stabbed forward like lightning.

Swish!

A green sword qi shot toward Hua Jingyang in an instant.

Hua Jingyang maintained his smile, seeming to admire Yan Qingshuang’s swordsmanship. Only when the sword qi approached did he sweep his palm outward, colliding with the incoming strike.

"Shatter!"

BAM!

As the green sword qi fractured, it looked like it would scatter!

Yet, in the next moment, the sword qi morphed into a blooming green lotus, splintering into countless slender sword qis that enveloped Hua Jingyang from all directions.

"Danger!"

A Fierce Cloud Sect disciple exclaimed in alarm.

Hua Jingyang’s gaze darkened, his expression growing solemn as his essence energy roared explosively while retreating.

"Flame Sky Split!"

Flame light blazed brightly on his right palm as Hua Jingyang froze the space ahead with a single motion.

The overwhelming sword qi halted within the fiery blaze’s domain, then—

BOOM!

The radiant flame shone brilliantly, detonating all the sword qi into fragments. The intense shockwave spread like a tangible sphere from the arena’s center, enormous and transparent to the distant onlookers!

At the same time, Yan Qingshuang struck silently with another lightning-fast attack!

SPLAT!

Despite Hua Jingyang’s evasive efforts, her blade grazed his shoulder, drawing blood.

Seeing it, Sun Yingyang’s face darkened as he yelled:

"Hua Jingyang, what are you doing?! Stop holding back and use your martial soul’s augmentation to quickly end this!"

Having never expected to be injured, Hua Jingyang’s face flashed with embarrassment and anger. He circulated his essence energy furiously, raising his head to Yan Qingshuang:

"Excellent! Qingshuang, now I’ll let you witness my true strength!"
