"Hahaha, Wu Yao, you can't be so weak that you're not even a match for a small fry from the Five Kingdoms, right?"
The few people beside Wu Yao laughed lightly, leisurely watching him, each of them squeezing Wu Yao, enjoying the spectacle without a hint of worry.
"Hmph, what are you all blabbering about? Just eat your meal."
Wu Yao snorted and looked at Wang Qiming: "I really didn't expect that at such a young age, you have already comprehended the Blade Intent. No wonder you dare to be so arrogant."
Blade Intent is the core standard for measuring a swordsman. No matter how high a swordsman's cultivation, as long as they have not comprehended the Blade Intent, they cannot be considered a true swordsman in the eyes of the outside world.
However, generally, swordsmen need to reach the Mystic Level before they can comprehend Blade Intent, and they are often over thirty years old, having immersed themselves in swordsmanship for many years, only then can they truly understand it.
Wang Qiming looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, yet he has comprehended the Blade Intent, which can be considered a genius even in the Dawei Dynasty.
"Unfortunately, in front of me, it's still far from enough!"
Stepping forward, Wu Yao's aura suddenly became deep and heavy, as if his body contained a great sun, a horrifying aura suddenly emanated, causing many martial artists from the Five Kingdoms nearby to find it difficult to breathe, their expressions horrified.
"Receive my palm, Great Sun Shattering Heaven Fist!"
A dazzling golden light swirled above Wu Yao's palm, transforming into a brilliant sun. The great sun spun, crushing toward Wang Qiming not far away, its momentum astonishing.
"Sky-Repelling Blade Technique!"
Wang Qiming shouted coldly, unyielding, gripping his battle knife tightly. A more fierce Blade Intent burst forth from him, layer upon layer, filled with endless rage and dominance.
Boom! The palm and knife collided, the blazing Blade Qi swept across, and the intense force made the surrounding martial artists hastily operate their true energy to suppress the terrifying aura that was transmitted. The entire restaurant creaked under this force, as if it might collapse at any moment.
Wu Yao's cold smile grew wider. His hands formed arcs, as if he was embracing the great sun, slowly pushing forward, like a massive grinding disc spinning violently. Crack! Crack! Wang Qiming's Blade Qi was continuously worn away under this blow, producing creaking sounds.
"What incredible power."
"To think it can even extinguish Blade Intent, what kind of power is this?"
The entire venue erupted in exclamations of shock.
Earlier, the clash between Wu Yao and Zhao Cheng was too fast, fleeting, that everyone didn't feel much. Now, sensing the other's strength carefully, they realized just how terrifying it was. That kind of annihilating aura made everyone tremble inside.
You Qianxue raised an eyebrow and said, "I didn't expect there to be such a genius in your Da Qi country. During the preliminary round of the Five Kingdoms Competition, I didn't pay much attention. With this level of cultivation, if placed in past Five Kingdoms competition semi-finals, it would be enough to have a chance to enter the top ten."
"Wang Qiming's talent is indeed good, but he is still somewhat immature. He desires to grow stronger so much that his Blade Intent has already gone astray. It doesn't show now, but if he continues this way, he will surely encounter problems in the future."
Qin Chen naturally knew Wang Qiming's strength. Back when he was still unknown in the Tianxing Academy, he could rely on his extraordinary presence to become one of the top four in the year-end examination, comparable to a group of powerful noble geniuses.
After the preliminary round of the Five Kingdoms Competition, his talent was discovered, and he gained the attention of the Da Qi country. The resources he received were far beyond what he could compare to before. Under the support of abundant resources, his terrifying potential truly exploded, one day of effort equaling several days of other geniuses. In this regard, there were hardly any geniuses better than him.
