Chapter 1459 Training With Eternal Lotuses

1459 Training With Eternal Lotuses

After the announcement, members of the Eternal Lotuses started going onto the stage to spar with Yuan.

"You are free to use any martial technique you want, and don't hold back," Yuan said to the short young lady standing a few meters in front of him.

"You may begin whenever you are ready."

A few seconds later, the young lady flew forward and started swinging her sword at Yuan without reservation, her eyes as fierce as a tiger's as she unleashed her most powerful martial technique.

The young lady was a 7th-level Spirit Warrior, so even her most powerful attack posed no threat to Yuan, who easily dodged it.

As he continued dodging her attacks, Yuan lectured her about the mistakes in her movements and swordsmanship and even told her the method for fixing them.

Thirty seconds passed in the blink of an eye for the spectators and the fighters on the stage, and Yuan announced, "I will be aiming for your life now."

He raised his wooden training sword and closed their distance in an instant.

"Wha—"

Before the young lady could even react, Yuan stabbed his sword directly at the wooden badge hanging around her waist, destroying it.

In less than a second, Yuan had taken her 'life'.

This greatly shocked the spectators, as none of them were able to follow Yuan's movements when he attacked.

"Wow! Did anyone see what just happened?! Even though I stared at him without blinking, I couldn't see his movement until after he'd destroyed her badge!"

"It's as though he stopped time or something! Did he use a technique, or is he simply just that fast?!"

"Next!" Yuan ignored the side comments and called for the next challenger.

Since the Eternal Lotuses had around 5,000 members, he had very little time to spare if he wanted to spar with everyone there before the Faction War.

Time passed quickly, and an entire day had passed before anyone realized it. Yuan continuously sparred with the members there without any breaks from day to night.

After hundreds of matches, nobody could destroy Yuan's badge, and nobody there could last more than 5 seconds when Yuan started attacking.

"I will stay on this stage until nobody is willing to challenge me, or I have to leave for the Faction War," Yuan declared, dumbfounding the members there.

However, they also saw this as a chance. They thought that if Yuan continued sparring with them, he would eventually get tired and make mistakes.

Thus, the Eternal Lotuses continued sparring with Yuan throughout the entire night.

Sometime in the afternoon on the second day, the Eternal Lotuses members noticed Yuan's movements getting slower. He also wasn't instantly destroying their badges.

"Yes! He must be getting tired!"

"It's only a matter of time before he's exhausted and makes a mistake!"

The girls clenched their fists in excitement, and their motivation to defeat him peaked.

Yuan continued to grow increasingly slower and more sluggish with his movements throughout the day. Yet, nobody was close to destroying his badge or lasting more than 10 seconds during his offense.

"How come we're unable to defeat him even though he's clearly exhausted?!"

"Is he really exhausted, though? What if he's just messing with us?"

"No way… but he's been fighting thousands of matches without any rest! Even a Spirit Lord would get tired!"

Suddenly, a familiar face entered the stage to face Yuan.

"It's my turn, Brother Yuan." Yu Rou greeted him with a smile.

Yuan smiled back and said, "Let me see how much you've grown."

Just like in Cultivation Online, Yu Rou's choice of weapon was the fan.

"You know, one of the Demon Sealing Faction members also wields the fan," Yuan said.

"Oh, really?"

"Yes. If he participates in the Faction War, you'll be able to see him fight. Maybe you'll even learn a thing or two."

"I can't wait!"

Not wanting to let Yuan rest for another second, Yu Rou suddenly used a movement technique to close their distance.

"Your movements aren't bad, but they could be better—

sharper."

Yuan said as he turned his head around to face Yu Rou, who was already swinging her fan at his face.

However, halfway into her strike, Yu Rou activated her movement technique again.

'I've got you now!'

Yu Rou smiled inwardly when Yuan didn't follow her movements a second time and was still staring at her previous location.

However, right as her fan was able to smack him in the back of the head, Yuan casually moved his arm to block the incoming strike with a single finger.

"Wha—?!"

Yuan's eyes shifted to stare at her, emitting an intense pressure.

Sensing his gaze, Yu Rou's entire body trembled, and without hesitation, she jumped back to distance herself from him.

"Not bad, Yu Rou. If you hadn't backed away just now, I would've taken your life." Yuan smiled and continued, "Also, you're the first one to aim for my head instead of my badge, and that strike contained enough strength to break someone's skull."

"Can you blame me? You did tell us not to hold back," she responded with a stiff smile.

"You're right, and I am not blaming you. Come, you've got another 15 seconds left." He beckoned her with the finger he used to block her strike.

Yu Rou nodded and quickly approached him again.

Fifteen seconds passed, but Yu Rou was unable to break his badge.

"My turn now."

Yuan used his movement technique for the first time, disappearing into thin air like a ghost.

"Wha—?! Where did he go?!" Yu Rou was left baffled by his disappearance.

A split second later, she sensed a weird sensation coming from her waist, causing her to look down. That was when she realized her badge had been destroyed.

"Wow… I thought he would go easy on her because she's his little sister, but he took her life in less than a second." The spectators were amazed by Yuan's movement technique, which allowed him to get behind Yu Rou like a ghost.

"I knew you were acting tired, brother." Yu Rou turned around to look at him with a bittersweet smile.

Yuan chuckled, "You guys were starting to slack off, so I had to motivate you guys again."

The next person to enter the stage was another familiar face.

"I don't care about the Divine-rank technique, so let's have a proper spar without the 30-second time limit." Bai Lianhua said as she stepped onto the stage.

Yuan nodded, "Sure."
