To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

This illusory sharp blade slashed fiercely on the light shield of Master Jin. Although it was still bounced off, Master Jin clearly felt the power of this illusory sharp blade.

The power of this attack definitely reached that of an ordinary early Jindan cultivator.

If Master Jin was just a little surprised just now, he was now extremely shocked in his heart.

They never expected that Sun Yi, the leader of Qingyun Sect, could possess such powerful combat power. He could burst out with a force comparable to that of an early Jindan cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage. He was definitely a genius.

Sun Yi continued to control the eight blades that merged into one to attack Master Jin continuously. Each attack unleashed the force of a blow from an early Jindan cultivator.

After launching dozens of attacks, Sun Yi stopped attacking. All eight sharp blades returned to Sun Yi and hovered quietly beside him.

Master Jin, Xu Huang and Wu Duo all looked at Sun Yi in shock.

They were already shocked when Sun Yi burst out with an attack power comparable to that of an early Jindan cultivator. They thought that Sun Yi could only launch such an attack a few times before he could not withstand it.

I didn't expect that Sun Yi could launch dozens of attacks, and after finishing, it seemed that Sun Yi's condition still had not reached its limit.

"I never thought that Sect Leader Sun actually possessed such powerful combat power. He possessed combat power comparable to that of an early Golden Core cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage. This is not a strength that an ordinary genius can possess."

"Master Sun, how do you manage to control this set of armor and eight third-level, ninth-grade spiritual weapons at the same time? This must require extremely strong spiritual power."

"Haha, unfortunately, I was born with a strong soul." Sun Yi smiled and expanded his spiritual sense.

The three of Master Jin felt the strength of Sun Yi's spiritual consciousness for the first time. Their pupils shrank. Sun Yi's spiritual consciousness was very strong. In their perception, the strength of Sun Yi's soul had definitely reached the level of an ordinary mid-stage Jindan cultivator.

"So that's how it is. Sect Leader Sun is truly a genius."

Genius? Sun Yi didn't show his full strength at all. He didn't even use the Five Elements Sword Formation, only the Golden Spirit Sword.

The core sword technique of Donghua Sword Sect is the Sky Flame Sword. Before entering the Earth Spirit Secret Realm, Sun Yi will not reveal the Fire Spirit Sword. If the Fire Spirit Sword is combined with the Fire Spirit Sword Technique and some operations are performed, Donghua Sword Sect will definitely take the blame.

Even though Bafang Pavilion is now in a cooperative relationship, Sun Yi will not reveal his trump card in front of them. Just now, he only controlled eight blades of the Qingyun Armor and has not yet displayed the style of sixteen blades.

Even though he didn't show his full strength, the fact that his combat power was comparable to that of an early Jindan cultivator was enough to shock Master Jin.

Su Motang and Ouyang Can both had smiles on their faces. They knew Sun Yi's strength very well, and naturally knew that Sun Yi had not shown his full strength.

If Sun Yi showed all his strength, Master Jin and Wu Duo would definitely be shocked.

They also agreed with Sun Yi's approach of not revealing his own cards, which was the smartest decision.

"Master Jin, two elders, do you think that with my strength, I can compete with the Hehuan Sect?" Sun Yi looked at Master Jin.

"Master Sun is truly a peerless genius. Not only does he possess astonishing business acumen, but he also possesses powerful combat prowess far surpassing his peers. He is indeed comparable to the core disciples of the Hehuan Sect. However, Master Sun alone is still no match for the Hehuan Sect."

"Yes, there are quite a few core disciples in the Hehuan Sect. Even if you, Sect Leader Sun, are much stronger than the cultivators of the same level, it is impossible for you to deal with all their core Foundation Establishment disciples by yourself, not to mention that their core Golden Core disciples are even stronger." Elder Xu Huang did not think there was a chance of winning.

"Who said I'm the only one here? Rest assured, the three of you. Leave all the combat issues to our sect. All of our disciples possess the ability to fight against opponents of higher rank."

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Master Jin's eyes instantly flashed with brilliance.

"Master Jin, do you still not believe in my character? Don't worry, all the Jindan-stage and foundation-building-stage disciples I brought with me have combat power that is two levels higher. There is absolutely no problem for them to deal with the foundation-building-stage and Jindan-stage cultivators of the Hehuan Sect." Sun Yi's face was full of confidence.

"Okay, I believe in Master Sun. In that case, let's do it according to Master Sun's plan." Master Jin decided to trust Sun Yi.

"I have no objection, and I also believe in Master Sun." Xu Huang nodded.

"I agree too." Wu Duo also nodded.

"Don't worry, I'll call them and tell them to return. You can test their strength yourself later."

"In this battle, we will fully utilize the armor, allowing it to showcase its unrivaled splendor in this life-or-death battle. We cannot miss such a great publicity opportunity."

"I believe that after the publicity surrounding this life-and-death battle, this set of armor will be even more sought-after at the auction, and the price will definitely increase several times over!"

When everyone heard that Sun Yi was going to use this life-and-death battle to promote the armor, they couldn't help but show strange expressions on their faces.

Only Sun Yi could remain so calm in the face of a life-and-death battle and even think of using it to promote products. However, after thinking about it carefully, everyone realized that Sun Yi was right. This was definitely a rare publicity opportunity.

"In that case, let's go out now." Master Jin regained his confidence and wanted to go out immediately.

Sun Yi quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, let's discuss the details."

"Discuss the details?" Everyone looked at Sun Yi in confusion, not understanding what details there were to discuss.

Sun Yi nodded. "That's right. Later, when you go out to face Hong Yang and Hua Yu from the He Huan Sect, your expressions, tone, and movements must be on point. You must act like you're outwardly aggressive but actually weak, and you must show that you're trying to scare off the He Huan Sect by using the prize as a pretext."

"I believe that if the prize we propose is too high, Hongyang and Huayu will not be able to make the decision on their own and will definitely consult with Patriarch Hehuan. They will definitely not agree to this matter immediately. You can take the initiative to ask them to go back and consider it."

"You can find a way to quietly leak some information and let a few people know that this is your plan to scare off the Hehuan Sect. It would be best if this information could reach the Hehuan Sect as quickly as possible."

"Well, after we get out, Master Jin, you should do this..."

Next, Sun Yi began to play the role of chief director and started to guide Master Jin and the other two in performance techniques. Master Jin and the others knew that this matter was very important to Bafang Hall, so they were all concentrating on it.

Fortunately, they were all great monks in the Nascent Soul stage, and their comprehension abilities were particularly strong. They quickly grasped the essence of the performance. Sun Yi tested the effect and was very satisfied. Master Jin was definitely the best actor, and there was no flaw at all.
