He Zhigang was an Ancient swordsman, while Ye Fan was a Famed swordsman. Naturally, the two of them could not test each other's true strength.
Therefore, Guhan and the two of them agreed that they were only allowed to use sword techniques and not sword essence. At the same time, they could only fight as Ancient Swordmaidens. This way, the two of them would be on the same level.
At the same time, whoever surrendered first or fell off the table first would lose the match.
Very quickly, the two of them engaged in an intense battle. Sword light from both sides danced in the air, clashing against each other. All the sword bearers were dazzled by the battle and they began to praise the swordsmanship of the two Sword Masters. Their swordsmanship was truly brilliant.
Of course, in Guhan's eyes, the two swordmasters' swordsmanship was laughably lame.
If Guhan was He Zhigang, just Ye Fan's first move alone would have been enough for Guhan to retaliate in a hundred ways, and he would be able to push his opponent off the table in the first move.
Of course, if Guhan was Ye Fan, the result would be the same. Either way, the two of them would not be a match for Guhan.
Although in the eyes of Gu Han, the two of them were so weak, but in the eyes of the two of them, it was an evenly matched battle, a fierce battle between dragons and tigers, a battle of equal strength.
Ye Fan took advantage of his young age and good stamina to continuously attack He Zhigang.
As for He Zhigang, because he was old, his stamina could not keep up with Ye Fan, so he could only defend passively.
However, thanks to the toughness he had developed over the past 30 days, He Zhigang's defense was watertight. After hundreds of moves, the two of them were still evenly matched.
However, Ye Fan knew very well that he was gradually falling into a disadvantageous position.
Because Ye Fan had been attacking fiercely, his stamina consumption was far greater than He Zhigang's.
By the time Ye Fan realized this, the difference in stamina between the two had been reversed. Instead, He Zhigang, who was in his 50s, had much more stamina left than Ye Fan.
In addition, He Zhigang's swordsmanship was above Ye Fan's.
So after a few hundred moves, the crowd could clearly see that Ye Fan was still at a disadvantage, and this disadvantage was getting bigger and bigger. Soon, he would lose.
Even the crowd could see this, so how could Ye Fan, who was a master swordsman, not see this?
So Ye Fan became more and more anxious. He could not accept that he had lost to an Ancient Swordsman.
Not only did Ye Fan's anxiety not help him, but it also gave He Zhigang a great opportunity.
He Zhigang aimed at Ye Fan's flaws and attacked several times. He successfully broke through Ye Fan's defense and left three to four deep wounds on Ye Fan's body.
Ye Fan's blood and stamina were constantly flowing out. At the same time, according to the rules, if Ye Fan's body lost too much blood, the highest AI, which was monitoring the condition of both sides, had the right to declare Ye Fan's defeat.
"No!
I can't lose to an Ancient Swordsman! "
Ye Fan's heart was burning, and because of the loss of blood, Ye Fan's consciousness was gradually blurring, and his rationality was weakening.
As a result, the evil in Ye Fan's heart gradually gained the upper hand, causing his actions to break away from his rational control. He casually slashed out with a sword aura.
He Zhigang, who was ready to celebrate his victory, suddenly narrowed his eyes. He was horrified to find that Ye Fan had not followed the rules they had agreed on, and had waved his hand to attack with a fierce sword aura.
The distance between He Zhigang and Ye Fan was very close, and in addition to the fact that He Zhigang was not a very powerful expert, and He Zhigang was not prepared at all, this sudden sword aura instantly put He Zhigang in an extremely dangerous state. He had no way of dodging this sword aura, and if this sword aura really hit his body, then even if He Zhigang did not die, he would probably have to stay in the med bay for a day or two.
"Bang!"
At this critical moment, He Zhigang only felt a gust of wind behind him, and another sword aura appeared out of nowhere. Just as Ye Fan's sword aura was about to cut He Zhigang, it collided with the sword aura.
After the collision, the power of the two sword auras canceled each other out, and finally disappeared without a trace. He Zhigang also narrowly avoided the disaster.
On the other side, Guhan gently put down his right hand and retracted his index finger. Clearly, this sword aura was used by Guhan at a critical moment.
Only Guhan could let his sword aura reach He Zhigang first, and help him block this fatal attack.
"Ye Fan!
What are you doing?
Do you not even want your face anymore? "
Yaoguang stood up and roared angrily. Not only did this Ye Fan violate the rules of the duel, he even wanted to harm his comrade's life. This was absolutely intolerable, and he must be punished severely.
"I can't lose!
I won't lose! "
However, Ye Fan did not care about Yaoguang's words. On the contrary, he became even more deranged, and waved the sword lady in his hand in a frenzy. One after another, sword auras flew towards He Zhigang … If all the sword auras hit him, He Zhigang would not even need to enter the medical bay. He could just wait for death.
"Oh no!
Ye Fan has already gone mad. "
Guhan had very sharp eyes. He could tell at a glance that Ye Fan had entered a state of madness due to the deep obsession in his heart.
At this time, Ye Fan could not be persuaded with just a few words. He had to beat him into submission.
"I'll suppress him!" Yaoguang immediately said. The only people who could suppress Ye Fan were him and Guhan.
Just now, Guhan had already saved He Zhigang. How could he let Guhan do it again?
"No need!
I have a good idea! "
Guhan smiled and shook his head. He then said to the remaining seventeen subordinates who were watching the duel foolishly, "What are you guys still standing there for? Hurry up and help your comrade take down this crazy guy!"
"Yes!"
When the seventeen people heard Guhan's order, they immediately jumped onto the meeting table without hesitation. They quickly formed the Tai Chi Yin Yang Formation with He Zhigang, and surrounded He Zhigang with the strength of eighteen people.
The Tai Chi Yin Yang Formation was not ordinary. It could be divided into two modes: external and internal.
External, the eighteen people's strength would be spread out to deal with thousands of enemies. Internal, the eighteen people's strength could be concentrated to attack a single person at the same time.
Although the sword qi that Ye Fan continuously shot out was very powerful, it was not something that an ordinary ancient sword wielder could defend against.
But with the combined strength of eighteen ancient sword wielder, it did not pose much of a threat. However, Ye Fan's continuous shooting of sword qi had greatly depleted the sword qi in his body. After a few minutes, the frequency of the sword qi was no longer as high as before.
"Don't waste any more time. Start attacking!"
Guhan, who was outside the formation, said calmly. His eighteen subordinates looked at each other and simultaneously stabbed their swordmothers at eighteen vital points on Ye Fan's body.
Ye Fan did not know what to do. He could defend the top three, but he could not defend the bottom three, and he could defend the bottom three, but he could not defend the right three.
Very quickly, Ye Fan's vitals were blocked by 18 Swordmaidens at the same time. At the same time, they knocked the Swordmaidens out of his hands. If he dared to struggle, the Swordmaidens would directly pierce his body … Even though Ye Fan's cultivation had gone berserk, he vaguely understood that if he moved recklessly, only death awaited him.
"I've lost …" Ye Fan gritted his teeth as he said this. His blood-red eyes instantly withered, and then his eyeballs rolled back into his head as he fainted.
"Take him away. I'll deal with him later!"
Yaoguang cursed angrily. He immediately had the attendants help the fainted Ye Fan into a room to rest. The entire meeting room was once again quiet.
However, the conference table that was used as the arena was riddled with holes and was on the verge of collapse.
The table was covered with various sword marks left by the rampaging sword qi. Rather than calling it a conference table, it would be more appropriate to call it an ingenious tree carving.
Everyone looked helplessly at the conference table that was too horrible to look at. They did not know how to proceed with the meeting.
"Boss Yaoguang, I don't think this table can be used anymore. Why don't we end the meeting here for today? We can continue the meeting after we get a new table!"
A sword-bearer sitting near Yaoguang suggested. The other sword-bearers nodded in agreement. Even Yaoguang appeared to be very moved.
Indeed, the meeting could not continue in this state. They were not interested in attending Guhan's succession ceremony anyway.
"Here it comes!"
Guhan's heart lit up. He immediately stared at the sword-bearer who made the suggestion. Guhan's eyes were so sharp that the sword-bearer could not help but lower his head to avoid Guhan's gaze.
So why was Guhan staring at this sword-bearer?
The reason was very simple. Just now, Guhan had deliberately let the battle unfold on the conference table in order to use this situation to lure the human traitor out.
Guhan already knew that the traitor's goal was to delay Guhan's succession as the guardian of the Lunar Star. Therefore, Guhan thought that instead of waiting for the traitor to make a move, it would be better to create an opportunity for the traitor to make a move himself.
Therefore, Guhan deliberately let the battle unfold on the conference table. When Ye Fan's Qi Deviation happened, he also deliberately did not let Yaoguang directly suppress it. Instead, he let the 18 ancient sword rank sword-bearers fight it out. His goal was to damage the conference table as much as possible, so that the traitor would suggest delaying the succession ceremony because of the damage to the conference table.
So, this sword-bearer in front of him who suggested that the meeting be suspended was a human traitor?
Guhan stared at this sword-bearer and thought to himself.
