Although this slash did not have the main body’s saber intent, it also contained Ning Shi’s own understanding of swordsmanship. Coupled with Ning Shi’s 50 points of vitality, it produced an astonishing effect.
A huge beam of light rose from the ground, illuminating the sky and earth in a snow-white color. The surrounding crowd subconsciously closed their eyes. Wang Yuan sensed the incoming sword energy and knew that something was wrong. He quickly used his life-saving trump card.
His fists shook wildly, and a shield-like door appeared in front of him. As soon as the door appeared, sharp sword energy hit the door.
The Ripple Gate seemed to have worked. A huge amount of sword energy deviated from its target, brushed past Wang Yuanyi, and hit the ground.
Rumble!
The earth was shaking!
A moment later, a 30-meter-deep, thousand-meter-long ravine appeared on the ground.
Everyone was silent, shocked by the power of Ning Shi’s blade.
Although this level of destructive power could also be achieved by a beginner mecha, this was the strength of the human body itself.
The meaning of the two was completely different.
Although the traditional fighters who were watching knew from the sect leaders and various books that top-notch traditional fighters were powerful and that splitting mountains was just an ordinary feat, they were still shocked.
However, they had never seen it with their own eyes, so they could not help but have doubts in their hearts.
Until today, after witnessing the power of Ning Shi’s blade, the traditional fighters who were watching the battle, especially the young people, were no longer confused. Each and every one of them had firm confidence in the path of traditional fighters.
All the traditional fighters were nervous and excited. Although Tong Baiming was not a traditional fighter, he advocated the development of the human body, so he also showed a very excited expression.
Among the spectators, there was only one person who was very calm, and that was the City Lord of New Star City, Li Sijia.
After she saw Ning Shi’s strength, her eyes moved slightly. She looked at her father beside her, and a strange smile flashed across her lips, as if she had thought of a good idea.
As the dust settled, Wang Yuanyi’s body was covered in blood and dust. He looked a little disheveled.
However, everyone could see that Wang Yuanyi had not lost his fighting strength.
Ning Shi’s powerful blade missed, and Wang Yuanyi was not seriously injured. Just when everyone thought that Wang Yuanyi and Ning Shi would continue to fight…
Wang Yuanyi took off his boxing gloves and cupped his hands toward Ning Shi. “Lord Ning Shi is very powerful, more powerful than me. I admit defeat!” He actually admitted defeat.
Ning Shi replied politely, “Pavilion Master Wang, you’re too kind. My attack just now was misguided by your Ripple Gate. You still have combat power. If we continue fighting, we still don’t know who will win. How about we call this a draw?”
Ning Shi had already achieved the effect of establishing his might through the saber earlier. At this time, he had to show some grace so that he could rope in Wang Yuanyi.
After all, Ning Shi was the person in charge of the Celestial Sect, and his biggest goal was to control the Hermit Pavilion.
And Wang Yuanyi was the master of the Hermit Pavilion.
But Wang Yuanyi was very honest. He shook his head and said, “My Ripple Gate couldn’t block your blade at all. You deliberately missed just now.
“I, Wang Yuanyi, am not a sore loser. From now on, l, Wang Yuanyi, am willing to follow in your footsteps and accept your commands.”
Wang Yuanyi lived for a long time and was a shrewd person. He had long guessed that the reason why Ning Shi was willing to compete with him was to establish his prestige.
Since that was the case, Wang Yuanyi did everything he could. Not only did he let Ning Shi gain the prestige of victory, but he also directly swore his allegiance in public.
This was something that had never happened before.
The position of the Hermit Pavilion in the Celestial Sect had always been high and mighty. Even the person in charge was respectful to the Hermit Pavilion. To a certain extent, the Pavilion Master of the Hermit Pavilion was the actual controller of the Celestial Sect.
It was just that the Hermit Pavilion focused on studying martial arts and was not interested in mortal matters, so they introduced a person to manage the Celestial Sect.
There had never been a Pavilion Master of the Hermit Pavilion who had sworn allegiance to a person.
Ning Shi had just taken the position of the person in charge when he created a miracle.
In the end, one had to use strength to speak. The reason why Wang Yuanyi was loyal to Ning Shi was that Ning Shi had defeated him in a head-on battle, allowing him to see the hope of breaking through to the Celestial Realm in Ning Shi..
