After a while, Riko pushed open the door and walked in front of Shi Xiaobai. She shouted a few times and shook him a few times. Noticing that Shi Xiaobai did not have any intention of waking up, she said in surprise, "Deep meditative state?"
Riko clicked her tongue. Others would burn incense and pray to Buddha if they could enter a deep meditative state once in their lifetime. This rascal had entered a deep meditative state twice in less than a month? This talent and luck would make many people die of envy!
Riko was also somewhat envious, but she was mostly happy for Shi Xiaobai. She gave a gentle smile and pinched Shi Xiaobai's cheeks before turning around and leaving, closing the door for Shi Xiaobai.
Moments later, the loli appeared in the room once again. She was lying in bed and seriously counting the time. In fact, she was very curious about Shi Xiaobai's talent in the way of the sword. After all, from her observations over the past few days, Shi Xiaobai's cultivation talent was astounding. It was likely that his talent in the way of the sword would not be too bad.
But very soon, half an hour had passed since Shi Xiaobai entered a state of enlightenment. The loli sighed in disappointment. Gaining insight into Beginner Sword in half an hour was only at the standard of a normal person.
Time passed.
One hour.
Two hours.
Three hours.
.....
In a blink of an eye, five hours had passed.
However, Shi Xiaobai still did not wake up. Furthermore, it seemed like he was going to continue sleeping.
The loli went from being shocked, stunned and speechless in the beginning to feeling numb. She frowned and said with despair in her eyes, "He's actually a rare … sword idiot! Why am I so unlucky Ahhhhh … "
.....
.....
In the evening, a medium-sized private jet landed at Steel City's airport.
At this moment, there were hundreds of people waiting at the airport. They were clustered on both sides of the road. A few people were holding banners with words such as "Zeus is invincible", "Heartless is the strongest", "Sunless is the prettiest", etc.
The gray-robed elder who held the highest position in [Gaia] was waiting with four Division Ministers in front of the road. Only when the plane had completely landed did they walk towards the plane.
Three elderly people walked out of the cabin door. One of them was a middle-aged man with a dignified bearing, the other was a middle-aged woman who still retained her charm, and the last one caused hundreds of people to exclaim and even scream when he walked out.
It was a white-haired old man, but he had a youthful complexion, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes. His tall and straight figure was like an unsheathed sharp sword, but his gentle expression seemed to hide all of his sharpness.
The old man carried a brown wooden sword on his back. The middle-aged man and woman fell behind the old man at the same time. The old man didn't walk fast, so they walked even slower.
"Your Excellency, Sword God!"
The grey-robed elder and the four division heads greeted the sword-carrying elder at the same time. They bowed slightly in a respectful manner.
The people on both sides of the road had already started discussing.
"Lord God of Swords is personally leading the team. Isn't Zeus placing too much importance on this batch of rookies?"
"Brother, you are too ignorant and inexperienced. Don't you know that the Ye siblings are the personal disciples of the God of Swords? It's normal for Lord Sword God to be worried about this trip to Shanghai City. "
"I didn't expect to have the opportunity to see Sir God of Swords with my own eyes. This welcome was really worth it."
"…"
The sword-carrying elder nodded slightly at the grey-robed elder and said, "Send my regards to One-Pun. Tell him that your old friend misses him very much."
The grey-robed elder nodded and said, "I'll definitely bring it."
At this moment, seven people walked down from the plane one after another.
The young man and young girl walking at the front were the most eye-catching. The young man was extraordinarily handsome, and the young girl was as beautiful as a fairy. Upon closer inspection, one would feel that the two of them seemed to be somewhat similar in appearance.
However, the young man's facial features were sharper, and his expression was arrogant. There was an insufferably arrogant smile at the corner of his mouth.
The young girl's facial features were softer and more exquisite, so beautiful that it was suffocating. However, her expression was very cold, and her eyes were as cold as frost.
The young man was dressed in black and carried a black sword on his back. The young girl was dressed in a long white dress and had a silver sword at her waist. The two of them walked side by side, one black and one white, as if they had walked over from another world.
Almost all the people who came to pick up the plane were waiting for the two of them, but when they saw them in person, they forgot to cheer and even forgot to breathe.
They were a pair of twin siblings. They were the personal disciples of the God of Swords. Before this year's secondary school graduation examinations, the elder brother had suddenly transferred to another province, and the siblings had each become the top scholar of a province.
They were a pair of siblings, as well as China's super rookies. They were the idols of many youths because be it their talent, strength or looks, they were impeccable and flawless.
The young man's name was Heartless.
The young girl's name was Sunless.
The crowd on both sides of the road held their breaths for a moment before they finally shouted in unison.
"Heartless is the strongest, Sunless is the prettiest!"
The shouts were deafening as it resounded incessantly in the airport that was about to fall into the night.
The corner of Heartless' lips curled into a faint smile, as though he was enjoying the scene of everyone receiving him.
Sunless' expression turned colder, as though she disliked the deafening din.
Walking behind the Ye siblings were four youths of varying sizes, as well as a plump girl. At this moment, they were like green leaves that accentuated a red flower, or even worse.
However, the five of them did not show any signs of indignation. They looked at the two figures in front of them with eyes filled with reverence.
These seven people were the seven rookies from [Zeus] that were about to participate in the mass selection. They had come to Steel City along the way to engage in a battle exchange without any suspense. Ignoring the Ye siblings, even the other five rookies that were like supporting characters were all elites. Any one of them would be a strong candidate for the title of Rookie King in [Gaia].
…
…
This night was very calm, but also very restless. It was calm because the [Zeus] delegation did not come out after staying in the hotel. Therefore, they did not cause any trouble in Steel City. The restless reason was because One-Pun had rushed back after hearing the news.
This was a thought-provoking matter. This was because there was a story between One-Pun and the elderly God of Swords that had to be mentioned.
Twenty years ago, the fledgling One-Pun had once 'sparred' with the elderly God of Swords in the way of the sword. He ended up suffering an abject defeat in three moves. Ten years later, which was ten years ago, One-Pun had sparred with the elderly God of Swords in the holy mountain. He was regrettably defeated after three hundred moves.
There were three Gods of Swords and ten Sword Masters in the world. From that day ten years ago, One-Pun had been ranked among the top ten Sword Masters in the world, never to drop down. Back then, people said that if One-Pun used his fists, he might be able to defeat the elderly God of Swords, but in terms of swordsmanship, One-Pun was still too young.
But now, another ten years had passed.
Twenty years ago, he suffered an abject defeat in three moves.
Ten years ago, he suffered an abject defeat in three hundred moves.
Then what about this year?
Could he last a few hundred moves this year?
Could it be possible this year … that the new generation would surpass the old?
This matter concerned the position of the God of Swords, so it was naturally the focus of attention. And this moment had come so suddenly. First, the elderly God of Swords had personally escorted his two disciples to ensure their safety. Later, One-Pun had rushed back to Steel City after hearing the news. All of this indicated that something was about to happen.
A storm was brewing. Tonight was not a calm night.
