“Chu Yunfan is using the Heaven’s Thunder Saber Technique. Among the martial skills in the Energy Refinement Stage, this technique is considered a rare saber technique as it is ranked. However, Chu Yuntian’s is not too shabby either. He’s using the Blazing Inferno Saber Technique, which is also a rare saber technique that is ranked. The two of them are almost the same in this aspect.”

On the high platform, the current head of the Chu family, Chu Yan, recognized the techniques that the two cousins were using the moment he saw them fighting. Although they both had the mass-produced Shadowless Saber, the saber in each of their hands was completely different.

The Blazing Inferno Saber Technique that Chu Yuntian used contained the essence of an aggressive fire. The power of the Blazing Inferno that he casually threw out was truly terrifying.

On the other hand, Chu Yunfan wielded the essence of terrifying lightning. He swept out with one hand and was as fast as lightning. His technique was as violent as Chu Yuntian.

“Both of them are pretty strong. Especially Chu Yunfan. His cultivation level is below Chu Yuntian’s. But from the looks of it, he isn’t the slightest bit inferior,” Chu Haoyue said.

With his cultivation level, Chu Haoyue was not shocked by the battle between Chu Yunfan and Chu Yuntian. However, for the other students, this battle was an eye-opener. This was especially so when many of them were students from important universities.

Compared to ordinary students, students from important universities were considered elites. But compared to Chu Yunfan and Chu Yuntian, two experts who ranked among the top even among Federation University’s students, there was a huge gap between them.

Many felt they were unable to keep up with the speed of the two cousin’s exchanges. It was all too fast and too violent.

The battle between the two held the attention of everyone present. No one was watching the battles in the other rings anymore.

At this moment, Chu Xuelian suddenly stood up from her seat. In order to catch each and every movement, her eyes widened. Chu Yunfan had easily defeated her. There was no doubt about his strength. However, Chu Yuntian was equally terrifying. She could see that although both cousins were in the eighth level of the Energy Refinement Stage, her strength was clearly inferior to Chu Yuntian’s. It was obvious that she was not on the same level as Chu Yuntian.

Meanwhile, the other elite students of this batch who were not competing also stared wide-eyed. It was no small feat for Chu Yunfan and Chu Yuntian to attract everyone’s attention. Though the audience was not in the ring, they could feel how violent the ensuing battle was.

Even Chu Haoyue’s batch was staring attentively at the two cousins.

Bam!

The sabers of both parties clashed with each other. They were equally matched and extremely terrifying.

The two figures crossed each other and faced each other on the stage.

“You’re pretty strong,” Chu Yuntian said lightly, but his eyes were solemn and serious. This was the first time he was facing his cousins so seriously.

Chu Yunfan was now on par with other strong opponents that Chu Yuntian had faced before. After fighting Chu Yunfan did Chu Yuntian realize Chu Yunfan was far stronger than he had imagined.

“Not bad. I didn’t expect such a fight from you. I had wanted to prepare more, but it doesn’t matter. This one battle is enough,” Chu Yunfan said.

Chu Yunfan did not take the opportunity to attack. It was true that he wanted to defeat Chu Yuntian, but it was a kind of obsession. Rather than saying that he wanted to defeat Chu Yuntian, it was better to say that he wanted to defeat the obsession that he had harbored in his heart for many years. He did not resent Chu Yuntian. At this point, there was no longer any need.

“I didn’t expect you to grow to this level,” Chu Yuntian said indifferently.

“Even I had never expected to be able to step out of your shadow one day,” Chu Yunfan replied, “From as far back as I can remember, you were like a huge mountain. No matter how I chased after you, I couldn’t catch up. Slowly, you became my obsession. I don’t blame you. I’m not as outstanding as you. How could I blame you? It’s just that I’m not willing to lose to you, which is why today’s battle is happening. Come on, let’s have a good fight. No matter what, everything will end today.”

Chu Yunfan raised his hand and pointed his saber at Chu Yuntian.

Chu Yuntian looked at Chu Yunfan calmly. Then, enormous amounts of True Energy suddenly burst out from under Chu Yuntian’s feet. He charged toward Chu Yunfan. With every step, a rumbling sound was heard coming from inside the ring. Chu Yuntian’s aura had risen by a notch.

Looking from afar, Chu Yuntian’s actions seemed slow but were actually fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Chu Yunfan.

Three steps. Chu Yuntian only took three steps. He was like a flash of light as he arrived in front of Chu Yunfan. His aura had risen to the limit.

Amazement flashed through Chu Yunfan’s eyes. This pace was amazing.

“Tsk, this is the military’s popular high-level footwork, the Nine Celestial Fire Steps. Reaching the sky step by step, crossing vast distances step by step.” Even the usually calm Chu Haoyue was flabbergasted when he saw this. “This footwork is only popular in the army. And even in the army, only some people can use it. How did he learn such a thing?”

“Looks like Chu Yuntian is no ordinary person. Although he was raised by our family, I’m afraid others have long noticed his value,” Chu Yan said indifferently. He did not mind it. No matter who valued Chu Yuntian, he was still a member of the Chu family.

In fact, many of the top geniuses in the Chu family had many experts guiding them. No one could reach the end by relying on their own efforts. These fortuitous encounters would contribute back to the Chus in the end. This was like the ocean embracing a hundred rivers. It was the same for most large families in these modern times. Relying on these connections, the Chus had extended their roots into every aspect of the federation. This was a win-win process in itself.

At this moment, many elders were amazed. They were amazed that Chu Yuntian could use a movement technique that was only popular in the military. This movement technique was high-grade and was very difficult to cultivate. Chu Yuntian was so young. It was shocking that he could utilize three out of the nine Celestial Fire Steps.

However, this also made these elders realize that Chu Yuntian was probably already taken in by others while he was being raised by them. It was because of this that Chu Yuntian was able to reach his current level.

However, the one who was even more amazed was Chu Yuntian. To be able to reach this stage in a short year was truly unimaginable.

It was like a blowout!

Chu Yuntian exploded in an instant. This was even more terrifying than Chu Yunfan!

On the other side of Chu Yuntian, Chu Yunfan faced Chu Yuntian who was charging at him. His body swayed slightly and he managed to dodge Chu Yuntian’s slash.

“Movement technique! It’s another movement technique!”

An elder suddenly shot up to his feet.
