Chapter 16 Measure for measure   "But you don't have to blame yourselves. It's already pretty good that you can do this. Most people can't even cut a straight line."

Only then did everyone understand that it was not that the accuracy of those youths was too bad, but that this sword qi was too difficult to control.

In the end, the top 30 geniuses and youths began to practice.

Wang Jinghai was the first to perform, and his performance caused a lot of cheers.

This was because Wang Jinghai was the first person to be able to hit a fallen leaf with his sword qi! Unfortunately, the sword qi was not refined enough, and the entire leaf was destroyed.

The second Li Lingfeng was about the same as Wang Jinghai. The sword qi also hit the fallen leaf, but it didn't cut down the leaf at all. Instead, it pushed the leaf away.

Mo Qi's performance was the best. He had originally used his sword. This sword hit the leaf, but the sword energy was not enough to condense it. He directly cut the leaf in half.

The city lord immediately took the leaf to take a look. However, he saw that the leaf was indeed cut open, and it was also cut from the center. Unfortunately, the entire leaf had lost about 90% of its surface area.

"Very good." The city lord nodded, "It's good to be able to leave some fragments of the leaves behind."

When the Mo Family heard this, they were extremely proud.

As for the others, most of them were similar to Wang Jinghai and Li Lingfeng. They could touch the leaves, but they were unable to cut them apart. They either blasted the leaves away or sent the light leaves flying.

Of the six champion youths, five had done almost the same thing as Mo Qi, and could already be ranked in the top six.

In the end, only Xiang Nan and Wang Xiaoyun were left.

Everyone's gazes were focused on the two of them. The two of them were the protagonists who provoked this dispute.

"Are you coming or am I coming?" Xiang Nan smiled faintly without the slightest bit of pressure.

Wang Xiaoyun also maintained his demeanor and said, "Since I provoked the competition, I will give you more time to slowly study. I will first, then you."

After saying that, Wang Xiaoyun straightened his body. He held a sword in his hand and his waist was straight. Just this hand stance was very handsome and beautiful, and it inevitably caused the female guests to scream.

"Xiang Nan, watch carefully. Let's see what a genius's perception is!"

Wang Xiaoyun circulated his Yuan Qi and poured it into the longsword, causing the entire longsword to immediately flash with a faint light.

Immediately after, the City Lord threw out the fallen leaves, and Wang Xiaoyun slashed out with his sword!

Its Yuan Qi condensed into light, and the sword light gathered without dissipating. When it hacked out, it was a meter long, but when it hit the fallen leaves, it was actually a meter long! It could almost be said that there was not a single bit of dissipation!

One had to know that the sword qi that the teenagers had chopped out earlier was already showing signs of dispersing halfway through the journey.

Swoosh! The leaves split in half.

Everyone watched nervously as the City Lord recalled the fallen leaves. The City Lord lowered his head and looked at the fallen leaves in his palm. He couldn't help but nod in admiration and then showed the leaves to everyone.

Everyone cried out in alarm when they saw the leaves.

The fallen leaf was split vertically from the middle, and it was accurate! And the loss of fallen leaves was only 40%!

"Alright!" The Wang Changhe Clan's Clan Master applauded on the spot, "To be able to achieve such a degree within a stick of incense is truly worthy of being the number one genius of our Wang Clan."

The City Lord also nodded, "Thinking back to the first time I cultivated Autumn Leaf Slash, I didn't reach this level. Wang Xiaoyun, a genius."

"It's your turn." Wang Xiaoyun casually carried his sword behind him and made a "please" gesture to Xiang Nan.

The city lord looked at Xiang Nan worriedly and tossed the fallen leaves out.

And Xiang Nan, swinging his hand was a sword!

Quick! Too fast! It was so fast that the audience didn't even have time to exclaim and question.

At the very least, Wang Xiaoyun did a hand stance and aimed at the fallen leaves. However, Xiang Nan immediately drew his sword the moment the City Lord threw out the leaves.

This sword strike seemed to be extremely casual, as if it had been practiced thousands of times.

The sword qi sliced through the sky, and the fallen leaves were divided into two halves, slowly drifting away.

When the City Lord saw this, his expression immediately changed drastically. He quickly retrieved the fallen leaves and held them in his palm to watch. This gaze was actually dripping with cold sweat!

When he showed the leaves to everyone, none of them could speak.

The fallen leaves that Xiang Nan cleaved were exactly the same as Wang Xiaoyun's. He only caused the fallen leaves to lose 30% of their value!

However, this was based on three prerequisites. Only after careful consideration did he know the path.

First, Wang Xiaoyun was six or seven years older than Xiang Nan, and he was also an expert at the Origin Realm! He spent much more time cultivating martial arts than Xiang Nan!

Second, Xiang Nan drew his sword even faster. It could be said that he didn't even make any preparations and directly attacked, but Wang Xiaoyun did.

Third, Yuan Qi itself was more condensed than before! The first weather was very easy to dissipate. A streak of sword qi was usually the most complete within five to six meters, and it was also the most powerful.

But beyond this distance, it would easily collapse, and even change its shape.

However, Yuan Qi was not. In the hands of powerful experts, Yuan Qi could be hacked out by hundreds of feet, or even thousands of feet, or even tens of thousands of feet!

Of course, this depended on the strength of the cultivation technique. A powerful cultivation technique could better condense Yuan Qi before the weather, allowing it to gather and not disperse.

However, Wang Xiaoyun and Xiang Nan used the same cultivation method! As for Wang Xiaoyun, he used Yuan Qi that was naturally stronger than the previous weather.

Judge!

Even though the City Lord did not announce who was stronger, Wang Xiaoyun's expression was extremely hard to see.

How could it be! How could this be! How could that kid surnamed Xiang do this?

The City Lord interrupted everyone's whispers and said, "Second stance, Autumn Leaf Scroll!"

After saying that, the City Lord tossed out a fallen leaf. Following that, the tiger beneath his feet blew with the wind, and his entire body took light steps to reach the bottom of the fallen leaf. Then, the sword in his hand continuously slashed towards the sky.

Streaks of sword light crisscrossed each other, but they never touched the fallen leaves. They only used the air currents brought along by the sword light to prevent the fallen leaves from falling, rising, deviating, or leaving.

It was as if the leaf had been frozen in mid-air, and it didn't move at all!

Seeing this scene, the spectators on the scene were all excited, and they clapped their hands and applauded vigorously.

"One incense stick." The City Lord put away the fallen leaves for everyone to see. The leaves were intact, and he said, "After an incense stick, please invite the thirty youths who won the first round to come and practice."

Those 30 people were all using Autumn Leaf Slash, and those who touched the fallen leaves could be considered to have passed the test.

Everyone immediately started practicing again, but this time, they were clearly even more anxious.

After bringing along an incense stick, the thirty most outstanding youths began to practice.

The first teenager sliced the leaf aside and turned it into powder with a single sword strike.

The second youth was even more exaggerated. With a single strike, the strong wind brought by the sword qi blew away the leaf without a trace.

The rest of them also practiced one after another. They followed the example of the City Lord and chopped out strands of sword qi, intending to counteract each other with the strong winds brought about by the sword qi, producing the result that the fallen leaves would always soar into the sky.

Unfortunately, the difficulty of this Autumn Leaf Scroll far exceeded that of Autumn Leaf Slash. After an entire round, all of them failed! Not even Mochi could do it.

In the end, only Xiang Nan and Wang Xiaoyun remained.
