Billy Tang held his spear with a high spirit as his green gown plumped up like a balloon. Suddenly, the level eight energy burst out of his body and the spear shone like the sun.
Austin came with his sword pointing at the ground with a faint golden vital energy surrounding it. He looked at Billy calmly.
"Austin Lin! Today you'll see the difference between the current and the previous top outer disciple!" Billy said.
At that moment, Billy summoned his vital energy and formed a whirlpool. Its center was at the top of his spear and it also absorbed the vital energy in the air.
Billy deserved to be called one of the strongest among the outer disciples. Even before the fight started, he could summon such great power.
"I think I know what that is! That is the spear intent! Bill really is a genius! He learned the rare spear intent skill!"
"Billy Tang ranks at the fifteenth place now, but he can be a dark horse in the coming Top Ten Disciples Ranking Challenge!"
Seeing Billy summoned his spear intent, the audience couldn't help whispering to each other.
"What are you waiting for, Austin? Let's start!"
Billy spoke to Austin coldly," I know your cultivation status and I'm sure you're no match for my spear intent. I will show these outer disciples how easily I can kill you!"
Austin was standing more than ten meters from Billy. While Billy was making his speech, Austin felt a burst of vital energy passed by him and cut his hair. His upper garment was also slightly torn away by the vital energy Billy gave off.
"I can't believe it! The cultivator who can learn spear intent is terrifying!"
Some of the disciples in the audience could not hide their excitement in the fight.
Austin was surprised when he sensed Billy's spear intent.
But having lived two lives, his soul was powerful enough to control his emotions and not to show it on his face.
'So, this is what a cultivator's intent really like. It's amazing, I must admit!'
As Austin sensed Billy's spear intent more, he learned something more about it.
Clang!
Without further ado, Austin wielded his sword to one of the moves of the Cloud Swordsmanship.
But aside from what he had learned in the Beast Mountain, Austin also applied something he just learned from Billy's spear intent.
This move might seem ordinary, but it followed the natural principle of clouds drifting in the sky–being rare and swift that no one could catch it easily.
Austin had learned the Cloud Swordsmanship to some great extent. It had played an important role in his fight with the evil ape last time.
At that moment, Austin felt like he was being weighed down by Billy's spear intent.
But the situation helped Austin understand a higher-level martial art skill.
With this new discovery, Austin made one move that helped him lessen the force that was weighing him down.
The disciples in the audience were familiar with the Sun Sect's Cloud Swordsmanship.
When they saw the move Austin made, they knew that despite his lack of sword intent, Austin's Cloud Swordsmanship had already reached the Major Achievement Stage.
Everyone was in awe at Austin's amazing moves.
"Well, I never expected that you had reached the Major Achievement Stage of the Cloud Swordsmanship. But you still lack sword intent. You can't beat me with just skill mastery," Billy said.
Billy's eyes suddenly lit brighter and vital energy flew out from his body like a storm. His hair rippled and his clothes plumped up without any wind. He was now ready to fight!
"Let's start!"
Billy leaped towards Austin. He waved his spear swiftly and it shot out spear radiance like blasts of wind.
The move was called Dragon Winding Spear Skill. Its crucial damage was the winding and twisting force. A dozen of spear radiance could break a big rock into pieces.
Austin's feet stamped lightly on the platform to commence his Wind-commanding Skills. Together with his Cloud Swordsmanship, Austin moved lightly and swiftly like a snowflake in the wind—you could see it, but you could hardly touch it.
Austin's sword penetrated through the clouds of spear radiance like sunshine and contended against it.
Ting! Ting! Ting!
The sound of metals colliding was heard continuously as it produced a shower of spark.
During their fight, Austin felt forces dragging him and holding him back.
A total of ten sharp forces were weighing him down, making him less flexible. His bodily moving skill became slower than usual and he could not move as freely as he wanted.
The spear intent wrapped Austin's sword and it became heavier.
It was the spear intent!
This was how the spear intent worked!
"This is amazing!" Austin shouted.
As he shouted, his vital energy quickly flooded out like golden circles around his body.
Level seven of the Energy Gathering Realm!
Billy's eyes widened in surprise. Austin was just at the level six of the Energy Gathering Realm three days ago.
But now he was already at the level seven. How could he improve that much in just three days?
Judging from the collision of the sword and spear, Austin's vital energy was almost as dense as his.
"You are good. In just three days you managed to upgrade from the sixth level to the seventh. But you still can't defeat me!" Billy sneered at Austin.
At this time, Billy started to take Austin seriously, which was rare for him.
