C45 The Needle Against the Wheat

Originally, it was already very heaven-defying that the Fifth Elder wanted Tang Ao to enter the top six. He didn't expect that after two consecutive battles, he would be able to choose Gu Yue, who was ranked second!

"This brat, he …" In the crowd, Wang Lin was also stunned as he looked at Tang Ao in shock. He didn't expect that his strength was actually so strong!

"He chose Gu Yue, this cultivation freak, and I'm afraid that the shoe brother is going to be finished this time!"

"Mm, even Senior Sister Yun Shui is a bit inferior to Gu Yue's character. I'm afraid that the shoe brother is going to die!"

Below the stage, not only were they feeling pity, in their eyes, Tang Ao's battle with Jiang Qingyi was just a distraction that he had won by luck.

"Alright! The match begins!" The Fifth Elder said, calming down and looking at the two of them.

However, after a long time, the two of them were still standing on the stage without moving an inch. They just looked at each other.

"You are indeed very strong, but you can't win against me!" After a moment, Gu Yue spoke. She wore a black robe and her expression was ice-cold. There was not a single ripple in her eyes as she looked at Tang Ao.

Tang Ao smiled and said, "There was once a woman who told me the same thing, but she was so angry that she went crazy. Just now, Jiang Qingyi also told me the same thing, but she also failed!"

The Fifth Elder's eyes were deep. He knew that the woman Tang Ao was talking about was the one who fought against the Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate in Bluestone City — Qin Yueshuang!

"Oh! Then... Let's begin!" Gu Yue said calmly. She stretched out her hand as if she was confident in winning, and she had a faint demeanor of an emperor.

Tang Ao remained calm. The Hundred War Spear Soul appeared in front of him, showing his determination in action.

Boom!

An aura that was even stronger than Jiang Qingyi's suddenly erupted, sweeping in all directions, causing dust to fly up from the ground.

At the same time, a killing aura that was even denser than the Hundred War Spear Soul's killing aura filled the air. It came from the tiger-wing knife in front of Gu Yue.

"That's... Tiger-wing knife!"

"Such a powerful Fate Soul. I'm afraid it's the highest quality Fate Soul among the Seven Layered Heavens!"

Everyone exclaimed. Although everyone knew how powerful Gu Yue was, when they saw it again, they couldn't help but be shocked.

"Are you ready?" Gu Yue's voice was calm as she looked at Tang Ao and asked.

Tang Ao looked at the Tiger-wing knife in Gu Yue's hand and hesitated for a moment before saying, "You should just awaken the Fate Soul of the Eight Layered Heavens. The Fate Soul of the Seven Layered Heavens is not very useful to me."

The moment he said that, an uproar immediately sounded out in the crowd.

"Shoe brother's words are a bit excessive!"

"That's right. Although he is very strong, he has underestimated Senior Brother Gu Yue too much!"

"Not necessarily. Didn't the shoe brother easily defeat the Eight Layered Heavens' lotus bed just now?"

"That was just a fluke!"

The crowd below the stage spoke one after another, discussing their own opinions.

"How can we know without trying?" A trace of a smile appeared on Gu Yue's calm face.

Tang Ao nodded and said no more, "Please advise!"

"Chi!"

Gu Yue made her move. The tiger-wing knife in her hand shone brightly, releasing an incomparably dazzling Bladelight.

Tang Ao met the attack. The Hundred War Spear Soul in front of him appeared once again. A shocking light suddenly appeared and swept out, incomparably sharp.

"Boom!"

With a loud sound, the two battles had already begun.

With a thought, Tang Ao held the Hundred War Spear Soul in his right hand and continuously pushed out layers of light with his left hand. He struck towards Gu Yue with an unstoppable force.

Gu Yue seemed to be unmoved. She raised the tiger-wing knife and retaliated with ease, blocking the layers of palm shadow, not even caring about the slightest bit.

It was as if a tiger's roar was heard. The tiger-wing knife in Gu Yue's hand burst out with a dazzling light. There seemed to be a fierce tiger lingering above it, looking very mysterious.

Gu Yue waved the tiger-wing knife, and a powerful Bladelight flew out. It was many times stronger than before!

Tang Ao's expression changed slightly, but he was not afraid. He dodged to the side and narrowly brushed past the astonishing Bladelight.

A strand of long hair fell to the ground and flew into the air with the wind.

Tang Ao's expression was solemn. Gu Yue's strength allowed him to have a more comprehensive understanding of her.

"He actually fought to a draw with Gu Yue!"

"Not necessarily, Senior Brother Gu Yue still has two Fate Souls of the Eight Layered Heavens that he hasn't shown!"

The audience exclaimed again. Their eyes were fixed on the two figures on the stage.

In just a few minutes, Tang Ao and Gu Yue had already exchanged nearly a hundred blows. Although they did not use their full strength, they had already figured out the other party's background.

"If you can take this strike of mine, then I'll be willing to fight with you!" Gu Yue shouted angrily. The tiger-wing knife in her hand swung out, and a Bladelight surged out. It changed from tiger in the air to Bladelight in the air.

"Alright!"

Tang Ao shouted in response. He held the Hundred War Spear Soul in his hands and faced it head-on.

"Rumble!"

A sound was like a thunderclap that exploded in some people's ears, causing them to lose their sense of hearing for a short period of time.

On the stage, the two figures remained motionless.

In front of them, the tiger-wing knife and the Hundred War Spear Soul gradually shattered, cracked, and then turned into nothingness.

"You are very strong. You have exceeded my expectations!" Gu Yue's calm eyes were filled with a trace of burning passion. He nodded and said, "You have the right to make me use my full strength!"

"Please teach me!" Tang Ao's words did not change. He stood still, and a trace of a smile appeared in his clear eyes.

"Alright!" Gu Yue nodded her head readily.

After a few seconds of silence, a violent wave of true essence suddenly erupted, raging in all directions.

"Fang Tian Halberd, open!"

Tang Ao's pupils contracted. A halberd appeared in front of Gu Yue, floating in midair and slowly spinning, releasing an unparalleled aura.

Furthermore, when this aura erupted, it did not weaken. On the contrary, the power of the halberd was growing at a shocking speed.

At this moment, all the surrounding A disciples of the Seven Killing Sects felt a strong pressure. They felt as if Mount Tai was crushing down on them. Facing Gu Yue in front of them, it was as if they were facing a huge mountain that could not be crossed!

Tang Ao's heart trembled as he guessed what Gu Yue's Fate Soul was.

Law type Fate Soul!

Looking at the speed at which the power of the Fang Tian Halberd was increasing, Tang Ao guessed that it was a powerful Law type Fate Soul silently strengthening it!

This kind of Fate Soul was very unique. It did not want to be like the Life Soul of a weapon that could be used in battle. This kind of Law type Fate Soul could only be considered to have a strengthening effect. It could instantly increase the power of a cultivation technique and weapon by several times. However, it would take a lot of true essence!
