The Urban Dao Child.

Everyone on the spectator platform heard his question and they looked at the girl fighting with her competitor. They noticed something that shocked them. Yue Jing was using a sheathed blade and all the attacks were aimed at the vital points of the opponent. 

The damage was controlled and negligible to a point otherwise, if she was fighting with a naked blade in her hand the opponent might have died already. The stabs were sharp and the slashes were unpredictable. Yue Jing completely had the upper hand in the exchange. The elders were shocked. 

Perseus shivered and said, "This is the most basic sword art set in the sect. I never imagined it to be this dangerous." 

Yang Dao said, "There are not waste skills in the world but waste users. If you cannot realize the full caliber of a skill set, then you are at the fault and you only have your comprehension to blame." 

His words were irrefutable and he did not notice the twitch that developed on the lips of the elders on the stage. Elder Jing Shui dispelled the awkwardness as she said, "Dao, what rank do you think, Jing'er can achieve?" 

"Ummm, she should be somewhere in the middle of the prime disciples. The reason is that her skills are still not too good, due to the lack of practice and inexperience. The other factor is that she is soft and lacks a proper cultivation realm." replied Yang Dao. 

Elder Bai nodded and said, "This generation of disciples have seven prime disciples. Yue Jing is an alchemist mainly and maybe that is why she did not emphasize the progress of her cultivation realm. She can rise high if she follows the current pace of things." 

The rest of the people nodded. The other prime disciples also began to take shot and they were all very swift and decisive. Yue Jing did not have this ferocity in her attacks. On the other hand, Yue Ming had also caught a glimpse of his sister fighting in a manner like never before. He found was suspicious but then he thought, 'Good, I can have your rank.' 

The battle on Yue Jing's side came to an end when the opponent made a mistake in her attack, providing the girl an opening and the next movement, Yue Jing hit her neck, and she fainted. In the end, the girl vanished from the array formation and Yue Jing won the battle. 

She did not relax and attached the sword back to the side of her waist and suddenly her figure vanished from her spot and she appeared behind a silent assailant, who had just attempted to make a sneak attack on her. 

This was a sect exam and sneak attacks were not banned. If you supported someone from your family, you will only gain a bad rapport in the sect, after all, everyone here is a genius in their regard and if they find that someone was climbing over their heads, then it will gain both the support and the supported a condemnation. 

Thus, only with pure skills can one climb higher and they shall face the people close to them even more rigorously. This is how you gain honor in front of the people who worship the strong. When Yue Jing was suddenly attacked the people thought that it was the end. However, the girl not only evaded the attack but also came to stand behind the attacker. 

Yue Jing herself was calm, she had expected this moment to come, sneaks attacks were the specialty of one person she held close in her heart, Yue Ming. She did not want anything more than one warm gaze from her father and brother, however, they never cared. Gradually she became distant from the people and today this attack acted as a release valve in her heart. 

She recalled all the suffering in her life and she recalled all the pain, the humiliation, and her eyes turned red from the nostalgia that attacked her in one moment. Her hand was resting at the hilt of the sword, caught in a dilemma to strike at her brother or not. 

However, Yue Ming was not the same as her, he did not bother and turned back to attack her with his spirit weapon. His sword was curved at the front a bit and he slashed it at the neck of his sister with no hesitation. The girl was watching all this and she remembered that night when she took an oath to never let anyone step over her and how Yang Dao supported her. 

Thinking about that her hand moved and the sword was taken out of the sheath. Watching the incoming attack, she recalled. 

Earlier in the training ground, Yang Dao watched her evade every stab that was aimed at her and he said, "You do not need to run in order to defend. You can attack as well. Cancel out the force behind the opponent's attack and counter it with your own, that is the true battle. Every sissy knows how to run. Only the strong can face an attack head-on." 

She wanted to prove her superiority in front of Yue Ming and thus she did not dodge but stabbed her sword at the incoming attack. 

DING...

The tips of the two blades collided and the ding echoed in the ground. The people were surprised as they heard the sound coming from inside the array. They were all disciples and they did not know what happened. Elder Chimes stepped forward and said, "The sound you heard just now was because of the resonance of the weapons. Do not panic." 

True a hundred rounds were dealt in the span of a few seconds. Yue Ming was surprised and wanted to say something however, the next moment Yue Jing attacked his lethal point. That too with a naked blade. This blade would have cut Yue Ming's head off his shoulders. This time he was really scared. He did not expect her to attack him with the intent of killing. 

...

Jing Shui looked at the situation and did not expect that her second disciple will turn into such a good war maiden. Not only this the fellow elders were complimenting and praising her swordsmanship. 

She could not help but feel proud at this moment. The next moment she looked at the screen again and saw her disciple taking the initiative to attack Yue Ming and she was not holding back. The speed and ferocity of the attacks were twice more than what she has done in the previous fight. 

Yue Ming was not having a good time but the girl was also beginning to stumble. She seemed to have been exhausting slowly. After a few more exchanges the girl was getting weaker, and Yue Ming began to overwhelm her. 

Elder Bai said, "A pity, this child exhausted herself." 

Yang Dao did not say anything as he watched the scene with nonchalance on his face. He did not think that it was worth it to explain anything to them. The battle continued...

Inside the array, Yue Ming smirked and said, "Come, attack now, defeat me." 

Yue Jing did not react to his boasting provocation. She fought him with gusto and kept falling back. Yue Ming lunged forward to stab her with his sword, but Yue Jing did something shocking. She held her sword, with the tip of the blade facing down and her wrist moved as if stroking the ground. The side of her blade collided with the side of Yue Ming's blade. 

She turned on her feet like a top and let Yue Ming move past her body due to the lung. Her sword hand was raised up and then she slashed it down. 

Yue Ming wailed, "Argghhhh..." 

His back was burning like hell, Yue Jing left a big gash on his back, that lengthed from his right shoulder to his waist diagonally. She did not pursue to attack more and said, "Give up, you cannot beat me with that wound." 

Yue Ming turned around and glared at his sister with his eyes seething in rage. How dare she did this to him, that was his question. With a mind clouded with rage, he launched a barrage of attacks on her. The chaotic attacks were all aimed at her vitals. The girl reciprocated in kind and the array echoed with metal clanging sounds. 

... 

Yang Dao said, "He underestimated my big sister." 

...

Yue Jing suddenly released her spirit formation cultivation base. She had not revealed her full strength. Yang Dao told her not to reveal it until Yue Ming or any of her opponents overwhelmed her. Her brother was one realm higher than her all the time but now she extinguished that advantage of his. 

She moved in and deflected all the attacks that came at him with a fast speed. Yue Ming felt his hand turning numb as he faced the strength behind the attacks. Just when he was going to attack with his ultimate card, he heard something. 

Yue Jing said, "Sovereign stabbing the heavens."
