When Zhang Qing heard that Su Yi was not only unaware of the situation, he even wanted to ask for the Foundation of the Sword from the elder. His face instantly turned pale.
The sage-like elder was also stunned. He never would have thought that an outer sect disciple would ask for the Foundation of the Sword from him and say that he didn't have any points for it.
If he didn't give it to him, it wouldn't be good. As an elder, he would be called stingy.
"Which one of you has the Foundation of the Sword? Give it to this disciple. He's smart and eager to learn. He deserves to be encouraged."
The elder said to the older disciples behind him. He really didn't have the Foundation of the Sword on him.
Among the older disciples, a young man in his thirties looked at Su Yi. His eyes lit up and a ray of light appeared in his hand. He threw it towards Su Yi.
The ray of light flashed and arrived in front of Su Yi. It was as if someone was lifting him up.
"Thank you, elder."
Su Yi stretched out his hand and caught the object in his hand.
Su Yi's eyes flickered when he felt the force enter his palm. However, he didn't show it on his face. Yuan Qi surged in his palm and dissolved the force.
"Eh …"
This time, it was the young man's turn to be surprised. This outer sect disciple was quite bold. He wanted to use this opportunity to embarrass this outer sect disciple a little, so that this outer sect disciple would have respect for the elders and not speak carelessly.
Therefore, the Foundation of the Sword that the young man gave Su Yi contained some hidden force. He thought that it would be enough to embarrass an outer sect disciple.
However, the outer sect disciple didn't seem to care at all. This made the young man surprised.
How could the young man's hidden force escape the eyes of the sage-like elder who was sitting cross-legged? He looked at the calm Su Yi and a ray of light flashed in his eyes again.
The other disciples didn't know about this.
Su Yi scrutinized the item in his hand. It was a scroll made of a special material. It should be made from the skin of a certain type of savage beast. What was written on it should be the 'Basics of the Sword'.
Putting it away, Su Yi cupped his fists and looked at the white-bearded elder. He continued to ask, "Elder, can this disciple still ask some questions?"
"You still have to ask …"
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Was this outer sect disciple really not done yet? His guts were really not small.
"Sure."
On the other hand, the elder's expression didn't change as usual, and his eyes regained their calmness.
"Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, battle-axes, hooks, tridents, staves, and lances. I wonder which weapon elder thinks is stronger!" Su Yi asked.
"What is this guy trying to do?"
However, when this question was asked, the entire audience couldn't help but become restless.
This was the Shenjian Gate, where the sword was respected. This outer sect disciple actually asked this question in front of the elder.
The elder was also surprised, but his expression didn't show it. He just looked at Su Yi with a brighter gaze and replied, "There is no strong or weak weapon. It depends on the person, not the weapon. However, the spirit of the sword is respected by people and gods. It is supreme and noble. With profound Taoist skills, one can enter the legendary Xuan realm!"
"What is a profound sword art?" Su Yi continued to ask.
"It is said that the person and the sword become one, the sword and the spirit become one!" The elder replied.
"Elder, may I ask which is more important, the sword art or the cultivation method?" Su Yi asked.
"If you practice the sword but don't practice the cultivation method, you will end up with nothing. However, there are exceptions. Some people have entered the Dao with their bodies, and some have entered the Dao with their swords." The elder continued to reply.

"If there is no master, can one become a hero?" Su Yi asked.
"Ten years of hard work is not as good as a master's!"
The elder said. He paused for a moment and then continued, "It is also said that a master can show the way, but a disciple can cultivate himself. It is like practicing the sword. The sword art is easy to teach, but the sword momentum and spirit are difficult to teach."
The training hall, which had been in an uproar, gradually quieted down after Su Yi's question and the elder's answer.
Even the older disciples were listening attentively at this moment.
They had never thought about such a question. Perhaps they had thought about it, but they had never dared to ask.
Now, the outer sect disciple had asked, and they also wanted to know the answer.
Su Yi's eyes moved. He looked at the elder and continued to ask, "Then, is talent more important or personal training more important?"
Su Yi attached great importance to this question. In the Barbarian City, Wang Quande of the Holy Mountain said that he was only qualified to be a handyman. It was only wishful thinking for him to become a strong man.
Although Su Yi had never believed all this, he wanted to know the thoughts of other strong men at this moment.
"Talent is naturally the most important."
The elder spoke in a loud voice that resounded through the entire hall.
All the disciples nodded. Talent had already determined everything.
Those extremely talented people in the mountain sect were so terrifying that they had long surpassed them.
"Could it be that everyone thinks so …?"
The light in Su Yi's eyes dimmed a little, but he was not disappointed because everyone thought so.
"But everything is special. As I said just now, some people have entered the Dao with their physical bodies, and some have entered the Dao with their swords."
At this moment, the sage-like elder stroked his white beard and looked at Su Yi. He continued, "As long as you experience enough training, you will be able to unleash your endless potential. There are thousands of forms in the mortal world, and if you choose one of the 3,000 Dao of Heaven and Earth, you will be able to achieve something. However, it is said that those who can succeed are like carps passing through the dragon gate. There are very few people who can succeed!"
Su Yi pondered and seemed to have understood something. There was a light in his eyes.
"Well, that's all for today. You can all leave!"
Su Yi wanted to ask something, but the elder spoke first. He looked at Su Yi and asked, "What's your name?"
"Elder, I'm Su Yi." Su Yi nodded and bowed with cupped fists.
"Su Yi …"
The elder muttered in a low voice and smiled. He then looked away from Su Yi, got up, and left with the few disciples.
"Farewell, elder!"
The disciples bowed and sent them off respectfully.
At this moment, Zhang Qing was sweating profusely. Large droplets of sweat appeared on his forehead. He was so scared that his heart was about to jump out.
Seeing the elder leave, Zhang Qing heaved a sigh of relief as if he had just been pardoned.
"Who is this elder?"
Su Yi asked Zhang Qing. He had a good impression of this sage-like elder.
"This is Elder Ying Dang from the 35th Sword Peak!"
Zhang Qing's eyes were full of awe. He said to Su Yi, "Elder Ying Dang is not simple. Several disciples who left their names on the Sword Pagoda are from the 35th Sword Peak, and some of them are ranked in the top 10."
"Elder Ying Dang …"
At this moment, Su Yi could not help but be stunned. That sage-like elder, who was like an otherworldly expert, was actually called Elder Yingdang. Wasn't this contrast too great?
"Su Yi, I think I've heard of this name before!"
"I think I've heard of it too."
