"I thought you had astonishing strength," but I never expected you to possess the ability of Illusion Technique as well. It seems that you're not only gifted in Martial Arts, but your soul is naturally stronger than others."
Han Zhen's face wore a smile, clearly very satisfied with Mu Rufeng.
Illusion Technique is quite rare, but not nonexistent.
Take the military advisor of the Northern Army, for example. He's a powerful Array Master who can not only set up Illusion Arrays but also cast Illusion Techniques himself.
He can even set up Arrays to enhance his Illusion Technique.
And to become an Array Master, one must first possess a soul talent.
Some with strong soul talents are even born with the ability to perform Illusion Technique. Clearly, Mu Rufeng was one of those talented individuals.
He didn't believe Mu Rufeng was an Array Master because if he were, which army would let him go to join a border garrison?
"What's going on up there?"
"Mu Rufeng was supposed to fight one against five, so why has it turned into Lv Sanshan facing four?"
"No, that's not right. How come Mu Rufeng has stepped down from the arena and is now standing beside the Great General?"
The watching soldiers were utterly baffled.
"Haha, Mu Rufeng, you sure know a lot of techniques. Swordplay, spear-working, boxing, even halberd arts."
"But they're all too weak, way too weak, haha."
Lv Sanshan laughed loudly as he broke through the attacks of the other four.
"Mu Rufeng, you're underestimating us too much. You will undoubtedly lose today."
A strong spearsman shouted sharply.
The two sides engaged in intense combat once again.
Shockwaves spread outward continuously, only to vanish into thin air as soon as they left the arena.
Clearly, Han Zhen had taken action, preventing the shockwaves from affecting the soldiers watching below.
"What's going on? Lv Sanshan said Mu Rufeng... but isn't Mu Rufeng not standing on the arena anymore?"
"Yeah, and Liu Xiaoqing and the others, they're actually calling Lv Sanshan 'Mu Rufeng.'"
"Illusion Technique, I get it now! It's Illusion Technique." Wang De suddenly exclaimed.
When he voiced this thought, the crowd was once again astounded. The explanation fit the situation.
"Mu Rufeng, you can actually perform Illusion Technique? Are you an Array Master?" Wang De asked, turning towards Mu Rufeng.
"Array Master? Sorry, I'm not an Array Master. This Illusion Technique is just a power of my Martial Arts Domain," Mu Rufeng replied.
"Alright, release the Illusion Technique and quickly resolve this battle," Han Zhen instructed.
"Yes, Great General!" Mu Rufeng nodded and then lightly leaped back onto the stage.
Following that, Mu Rufeng directly dispelled the Illusion Technique.
"Huh? Why is it you guys?"
Both sides, locked in combat, were immediately dumbfounded.
"That's not right, wasn't I (we) fighting with Mu Rufeng? How did it turn into Lv Sanshan (the four of Liu Xiaoqing) instead?"
At that moment, their thoughts were remarkably unanimous.
"I'm done playing with you. Time to send you off."
As his words ended, Mu Rufeng waved the Magic Wand in his hand, directly executing the final move of Pig Killing Eighteen Techniques: Qi Killing Technique.
A terrifying blade Qi arrived in an instant.
Hold on, Mu Rufeng wasn't using a sword; he wielded the Qilin Wand, so it should be called Staff Qi? That didn't sound good. Better to stick with blade Qi.
As it turned out, though it should be a technique only executable with swordplay, for some reason, after entering this instance, there was no longer such restriction.
It seemed that the Pig Killing Eighteen Techniques had automatically converted into a sword technique of this world's Martial Arts system.
Of course, casting it with the Magic Wand meant that its power was significantly reduced.
The five opponents reacted and immediately deployed their Martial Arts techniques to either dodge or counter directly.
Unfortunately, it was all in vain, as they were powerless to resist and were knocked flying.
They didn't fly far, about ten meters or so, and upon landing, all of their bodies stiffened, unable to move.
Blade Qi had entered their bodies, and they were now attempting to dissipate it by circulating their Qi Blood Power.
"My respects," Mu Rufeng slowly retracted the Magic Wand and then, with his hands clasped, spoke.
"I declare that the champion of this military camp competition is—Mu Rufeng!"
