In the fighting ring,
the Ninth Princess was stunned and her face went pale .
"Is my Teal Lotus Shield going to be broken?"
Her disbelief was as strong as her amazement at Su Mo's strength .
She had originally wanted to teach Su Mo a lesson in this battle . But as it stood now, she was the one who would be getting schooled instead!
As she circulated her Genuine Vitality, the crack on the lotus shield was immediately repaired .
"Whoosh!"
She flew at Su Mo at lightning speed as she could not sit back any longer . She had to be offensive from now on .
"Devastating Red Lotus!"
She used the same attack again, but this time, there were four lotuses instead of just one or two .
The four lotuses lined up in a row and struck toward Su Mo in a straight line .
"Destroy!"
Su Mo went toward the Devastating Red Lotus instead of retreating and dealt out dozens of blows in an instant .
The streams of Sword Qi tore through the air and flew at the four lotuses .
"Rumble!"
Explosions were heard continuously as the four lotuses were destroyed in a split second by Su Mo's attack .
"I'll break your defense this time!"
Su Mo yelled as he rapidly approached the Ninth Princess .
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Su Mo brandished his sword continuously, sending 33 streams of Sword Qi toward the same place .
The Ninth Princess launched another attack . As she waved her hands, countless petals appeared in the air .
"Blooming Field of Flowers!"
The countless petals turned into sharp blades and headed at Su Mo's Sword Qi .
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
However, the streams of Sword Qi were unstoppable . They tore apart the petals one after another and approached the Ninth Princess again .
At this moment, there were only nine streams of Sword Qi left .
The Sword Qi struck her instantly, and their power sent her back again and again, leaving her Blood Qi in turmoil .
"Whoosh!"
Su Mo flew above her without pausing and the Spirit-slayer Sword turned into an illusion that struck at her continuously with an outburst of sword radiance .
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In that instant, even Su Mo was uncertain how many blows he dealt . Every single blow hit the same place on her Teal Lotus Shield .
After dozens of strikes, the Ninth Princess was almost out of breath and even her lotus shield was trembling violently .
She immediately fell back and evaded to the side, unwilling to face Su Mo's attack head-on .
However, Su Mo was not going to let her off . He brought his strength to its peak again and dealt the most powerful attack without holding back his physical strength, Sword Will, swordsmanship, or Genuine Vitality .
"Infinite Heaven and Earth!"
The sword radiance remained with the sword instead of dispersing, allowing all the power to be gathered onto the sword . It then landed on her lotus shield again with a power that could separate heaven from the earth .
"Boom!"
"Crack!"
A deafening bang was heard, followed by a crack . With that, the Ninth Princess' lotus shield could not last any longer and was covered with cracks instantly .
She was as pale as a sheet and her body wobbled . Although the lotus shield was not completely broken, she withstood the majority of the impact .
Su Mo's power was so wild and powerful that her Blood Qi was roiling non-stop . Even her Genuine Vitality was almost broken apart .
"Accept your defeat!"
Su Mo continued to attack . With a tremendous force that gathered on the tip of his sword, his sword struck .
"Whoosh!"
The ray of sword radiance pierced through everything and instantaneously went through the lotus shield, which was on the verge of collapsing . The tip of the sword then stopped in front of the Ninth Princess' fair neck .
She froze and stared at the tip of the sword in a daze .
It felt like this scene had been paused for eternity .
The crowd sighed emotionally . "The Ninth Princess has been defeated in the end!"
Su Mo was the biggest dark horse in this competition and was going to come in second place . The Ninth Princess could only be the second runner-up .
"You've lost!"
Su Mo gazed at her watery eyes and said with a gentle smile . He then withdrew his sword .
She was still in a daze, frowning and biting her lips tightly .
After a short while, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath before opening them again .
"You've won!"
The Ninth Princess said coldly with a hint of sourness in her voice .
"Roar!"
As the outcome was determined, Su Mo's Dragon Luck immediately flew out and devoured the Ninth Princess' Dragon Luck .
His Dragon Luck then grew to the same size as Ao Wushuang's, 286 meters long .
"You're good!"
Su Mo nodded at her before turning to leave the fighting ring .
"Wait!"
The Ninth Princess suddenly stopped him just then .
"What's wrong?" Su Mo was confused .
The Ninth Princess took a deep breath as she gazed at Su Mo and said, "I promised you that if you could break my defense, I'd take off my veil!"
"Oh?"
Su Mo was startled . He did not mean it before and had never expected her to take it so seriously .
He then nodded and waited for her to remove her veil .
Everyone in the spectator stands was also staring at her, waiting for her to take the veil off and reveal her true appearance .
The Ninth Princess raised her slender white hands and gently removed her veil .
As the veil came off, Su Mo's eyes lit up in amazement .
Beautiful!
More beautiful than Su Mo had expected!
Her eyes were mesmerizing and her features were sharp . Her skin was pure as snow and her red lips were like a cherry among the snow . She was a divine beauty!
Su Mo was taken by surprise that she was as beautiful as Xi'er .
However, the Ninth Princess' aura was totally different from Xi'er's .
Xi'er felt pure and innocent like a village girl .
But the Ninth Princess felt like an isolated beauty that was untainted by the world .
In his previous life, people would describe Xi'er as someone more down to earth and approachable .
Meanwhile, the Ninth Princess was extremely elegant and felt like she was untouchable!
Many in the spectator stands were gaping and staring at her as well, surprised by her astounding beauty .
The Ninth Princess then quickly put her veil on again and shot a quick glance at Su Mo before returning to the spectator stands .
Su Mo shook his head and returned as well .
The competition then took a pause .
According to the rules, the next battle would happen between the Ninth Princess and Ao Wushuang .
Since she had just fought against Su Mo, a small time-out was allowed so that she could rest and replenish her energy .
About 15 minutes later,
both the Ninth Princess' and Ao Wushuang's tokens started vibrating as a reminder that their battle would be starting .
At this moment, she was back to her peak status again and flew into the fighting ring .
Ao Wushuang also took a step and landed in front of her .
Su Mo then diverted all his attention to the two of them . He would fight against Ao Wushuang in the next round . However, Su Mo was not confident because Ao Wushuang's strength appeared to be unfathomable .
He was expecting to find out something about Ao Wushuang's true strength from this fight .
