Of course, Lin Xuan knew that their strengths were almost equal, and even if they were to give their all, the end might still result in both sides being injured.
If he wanted to win and stand above everyone else, he would have to advance to the Venerable Realm and become a Venerable.
Alternatively, he could condense a true Martial Soul.
At the moment, Lin Xuan's cultivation was only at the late stage of the Spirit Communication Realm, making it somewhat difficult for him to enter the Venerable Realm—his cultivation certainly wasn't sufficient.
However, he could still condense a true Martial Soul.
Moreover, in this aspect, he had more advantages than anyone else.
Within him was already the Great Dragon Sword Soul; all he needed to do was completely integrate it with the Perfect Sword Intent, and then his Sword Soul would be formed.
This process would be much faster than for the others.
Of course, the others also had advantages in cultivation that Lin Xuan did not possess.
