Normally, Zachary would just leave the platform after failing. But today he was eager to stay and watch how far Zen could go.
The groups of Magnetic Aurora emerged continuously with an increasing number, but Zen still unhurriedly chopped them.
25th wave of Magnetic Aurora...
30...
40...
50...
These shots of Magnetic Aurora rushed to Zen in large numbers. When Zachary saw the numbers of Magnetic Aurora, he felt his body froze. Zen, on the other hand, continued to cut them all. Zachary couldn't help but think that this guy had no limits at all.
When the sixtieth group of Magnetic Aurora came, Zen started to feel burnt out and he was slowing down.
"The Magnetic Aurora is just sensitive to the sword intent. Even if I have the sword radiance of the Streamer Sword, I still can't cut fast enough." Zen frowned. This meant that he still hadn't comprehended the sword intent to an acceptable level.
The sword was the top-ranked among weapons, and with its sharp blade, it could cut through anything.
Any swordsmanship skill wasn't only dependent on body strength. They were mainly pushed by the sword intent to release the sharp cutting force.
'What should I do to sharpen the sword intent more?'
After feeling the pressure, Zen finally started to think about it.
'Break! Break it!'
Zen swung his sword and cut through three shots of Magnetic Aurora in an instant, but more came rushing to him from far away.
Zachary looked at those shots of Magnetic Aurora and thought, 'It seems that Zen can't stand it anymore. There are too many shots of Magnetic Aurora. However, he has resisted more than 60 groups when it is just his first time and with the strength at only Grade 2 of the nature level. The strength is unprecedented. I think a second one can't be found in Cloud Sect even from ancient times!'
Zachary was born in a noble clan with a broad vision on things, but he made such a conclusion. He thought it was difficult even for the powerful geniuses to make the same record as Zen.
After swinging his sword crazily, Zen managed to resist the 60th group of the Magnetic Aurora. But one shot of the Magnetic Aurora almost knocked the crystal ball, so Zachary estimated that the next group would probably leave a crack on the ball. With this trend, Zen wouldn't be able to resist the 63rd group.
If that happened, that would be the most satisfying things for Zen. So, Zachary just sat aside and waited.
After successfully cutting through the 60th group, Zen suddenly planted the Streamer Sword in his hands into the ground and closed his eyes. He was lost in his thoughts.
'What the fuck is he doing?' Zachary looked at Zen curiously.
Zen was still with his hands on his knees. It didn't seem that he was summoning the life vitality to cultivate himself but was just thinking hard.
'How could he think in this time?' Zachary was speechless.
There were only a few seconds left before the next group started to rush in, and there was not enough time for Zen to think. And in no time, the dense Magnetic Aurora started to rush again.
"Hey, the Magnetic Aurora is coming. Will you just get up and deal with it?" Zachary shouted at Zen. There wasn't even a crack on Zen's crystal ball, and it would be a pity if he would give up now. But Zachary wanted to see how far Zen could go.
However, even after Zachary warned Zen, the latter remained still as if he didn't hear the first.
"Three shots of Magnetic Aurora are going to crash. If you don't move, you will have no chance!" Seeing the overwhelming Magnetic Aurora, Zachary started to get anxious. There wasn't any time left for Zen to act if the Magnetic Aurora started to close in on him.
The Magnetic Aurora got closer, but Zen seemed not to notice. Zachary started to worry more. When the Magnetic Aurora was only less than ten feet away from Zen's crystal ball, Zachary could only sigh, "Let it pass. He can already be outstanding at the Cloud Sect and there will be nobody else who can have the same result. He has proven his strength, and he can still come back for the challenge in the future!"
Suddenly, Zen opened his eyes.
Somehow, when Zachary looked into Zen's eyes, it seemed that Zen's imposing manner had changed–his eyes became sharper and struck directly at the heart.
The shots of Magnetic Aurora were already approaching the crystal ball at a high speed.
