"Little Junior Brother, you're back. Why did the Deputy Headmaster summon you?" Zhou Jin asked curiously.
"Nothing, just chatting." Chu Mu smiled.
"Well, don't ask so many questions," Luo Yufeng said. He was still in a very good mood. This was his last chance to participate in the top 100 competition. Because of Chu Mu, he had obtained a place.
"We have to work harder and strive to participate in next year's top 100 competition and obtain a place in the top 100." Yuwen Wenhua clenched his fists and said loudly.
"I still have one more chance." Zheng Xiu Ran's face was also full of determination.
"According to the experience of this year's top 100 competition, it's best if the other Senior Brothers can enter together next year. Only by working together will we have a better chance. If we're alone, even if we obtain a short sword, it will be snatched away and our lives will be in danger." Chu Mu said with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"I think that by next year, Second Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother should be able to enter the top 100 competition. As for us, it's hard to say." Li Yi pondered and said slowly.
"Haha, don't worry. This time, Little Junior Brother and I of our Qingfeng Academy obtained a place in the top 100. You will all be rewarded by the Sword Academy. As long as you cultivate well this year, it's not impossible for you to enter the top 100 competition." Luo Yufeng smiled.
"I'm going to cultivate." Zheng Xiu Ran stood up and strode out of the hall. This time, he obtained a short sword, but in the end, it was snatched away by others because of the last challenge. This made Zheng Xiu Ran feel ashamed, but at the same time, he held his breath and swore that he must obtain a short sword in the next top 100 competition.
"I'm going to cultivate too."
"All of you, go and cultivate."
…
In the blink of an eye, five days passed. Every day, Chu Mu cultivated according to his usual schedule. His Upper Origin Sword Qi was getting thicker and thicker, and he was not far from the peak of Tenth Stage.
On this day, the Sword Academy's reward was also issued, and Luo Yufeng personally received it.
"The Sword Academy's reward this time is really generous." Luo Yufeng came back with a big bag. As soon as he entered the Qingfeng Courtyard, he shouted loudly. He was very excited, very different from his usual calmness.
"Eldest Senior Brother, quickly take it out. What exactly did the Sword Academy reward?" Zhou Jin shouted somewhat impatiently. A group of people surrounded him.
"Come, let's go to the hall," Luo Yufeng said and quickly went to the hall.
He placed the bundle on the table and opened it. Inside, there were three different colored porcelain bottles. There were dozens of them in total. In addition, there were six books.
"This is the Great Hemostasis Pill … this is the Great Qi Recovery Pill … and this is the Qi Boosting Pill … haha … this is great, there are actually so many Qi Boosting Pills."
"There are three top grade Yellow Rank Sword Qi Arts, and there are also three complete high grade sword arts … Hahahaha …"
All of them were extremely excited. Even Chu Mu found it difficult to remain calm. His heart was in turmoil.
After counting, there were a total of sixteen bottles of Great Hemostasis Pill and sixteen bottles of Great Qi Recovery Pill. Each bottle contained ten pills, adding up to a total of 320 pills. There were eight bottles of Qi Boosting Pills, each bottle also contained ten pills, adding up to a total of 80 pills.
The three top grade Yellow Rank Sword Qi Arts were of the fire, wood, and lightning attributes, and the three high grade sword arts corresponded to the fire, wood, and lightning attributes. Chu Mu flipped through them. The three top grade Yellow Rank Sword Qi Arts were not comparable to the Shangyuan Sword Qi Art, but they were only slightly inferior. As for the three high grade sword arts, they were relatively ordinary and could not be compared to the Goldtip Sword Art.
However, to the others, this was a great gift. It was enough to increase their overall strength by a lot.
Previously, Chu Mu had used the short sword to exchange for a top grade Yellow Rank Sword Qi Art and a high grade sword art. They were both of the cloud attribute. It was very coincidental.
"Second Junior Brother majored in the gold attribute. Unfortunately, there is no gold attribute among these Sword Qi Arts." Luo Yufeng sorted out the items. After glancing at the others, he said, "Third Junior Brother majored in the fire attribute, so you can switch to this Fire Sword Qi Art and this high grade sword art. Fourth Junior Brother majored in the cloud attribute, which is also lacking here. Fifth Junior Brother majored in the gold attribute, while Sixth Junior Brother majored in the thunder attribute, so there is a Thunder Sword Qi Art and high grade sword art. Seventh Junior Brother majored in the wood attribute, so there is a corresponding Wood Sword Qi Art and high grade sword art."
"I believe that if all of you switch to these Sword Qi Arts and sword arts, and with the supply of these Qi Boosting Pills, your strength will definitely increase a lot in the future. At that time, it will not be difficult to get a place in the top 100 next time." Luo Yufeng said.
Zhou Jin, Li Yi, and Yuwen Wenhua couldn't help but feel a little sad. Although they were happy for their fellow disciples, they didn't have the relevant Sword Qi Arts and Sword Arts to cultivate, so their strength in the next year wouldn't be that obvious.
"I have a cloud attribute Yellow Class Sword Qi Art and high grade sword art. Fourth Senior Brother, you can make a copy and cultivate." Chu Mu said, taking out two books from his chest and putting them on the table. Li Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Chu Mu with gratitude.
"Also, Second Senior Brother and Fifth Senior Brother, although I do not have a gold attribute Sword Qi Art, I have a powerful gold attribute sword art. It is more powerful than the high grade sword arts here, and it is called the Golden Edge Sword Art. You can make a copy and cultivate it." Chu Mu said again.
Zhou Jin and Yuwen Wenhua's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Golden Edge Sword Art! Junior Brother, is that the one you are cultivating? "Yuwen Wenhua asked eagerly.
"Yes." Chu Mu nodded.
"Haha, that's great. Second Senior Brother and I can also ask you for advice." Yuwen Wenhua laughed, and the depression in his heart was swept away.
Although they did not have a gold attribute Yellow Class Sword Qi Art, if someone taught them the gold attribute sword art, their cultivation progress would be faster, and they would have a deeper understanding of it. Naturally, their strength would also improve significantly.
"Little Junior Brother, we will have to trouble you in the future." Zhou Jin also smiled.
Chu Mu nodded his head. He had already trained the Golden Edge Sword Technique to perfection. Instructing them was a piece of cake. Moreover, the reason why he said all this was because he wanted to raise the strength of his senior brothers as much as possible.
In the following time, everyone chose the Sword Qi Art and sword art they wanted to cultivate, and began a new round of cultivation frenzy.
A few days later, everyone finished cultivating the Sword Qi Art. Except for Zhou Jin, Yuwen Wenhua, Chu Mu, and Luo Yufeng, everyone else's Sword Qi had become much purer, and their overall strength had increased.
Zhou Jin and Yuwen Wenhua had already started cultivating the Golden Edge Sword Art. Under Chu Mu's guidance, they had basically grasped the basic form of the Golden Edge Sword Art, and gradually became proficient.
During this time, Chu Tian and Chu Hong also came. They also received some rewards, but the power to distribute the rewards fell into the hands of the Sword Faction's Eldest Senior Brother, so they received very little rewards. From them, Chu Mu also learned that the rewards received by the other Sword Faction's courtyards were not the same as Qingfeng Courtyard's.
For example, the courtyards of the other low-grade sword sects only received one top-grade yellow level sword qi technique and one high-grade sword art in addition to medicinal pills. As for the mid-grade sword sects, they only received three or four top-grade yellow level sword qi techniques and high-grade sword arts.
Chu Mu silently pondered for a moment. Perhaps this had something to do with vice academy master Ling Cangyan. Perhaps it was because of him that he gave Qingfeng Academy some extra benefits.
Secretly remembering this, Chu Mu did not go to thank Ling Cangyan. After all, Ling Cangyan did not say anything.
In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed. Chu Mu's Upper Origin Sword Qi had become purer and denser. He was only one step away from the peak of Tenth Stage.
In addition, Chu Mu had also reached the completion of the Golden Edge Sword Art, Cloud Shattering Sword Explosion, and Gale Sword Art. In addition to taking some time out every day to review, he also touched on several other Superior Grade Sword Arts.
In a short time, he had cultivated the Fire, Thunder, Wood, and Cloud Sword Arts to the Beginner Level. Now that Chu Mu's horizons had been broadened, and after a conversation with Ling Cangyan, he understood that the world of Swordsmen was infinitely vast. Naturally, he paid less attention to Superior Grade Sword Arts.
Now, if it was not a powerful Superior Grade Sword Art, it would not be able to attract Chu Mu's attention. However, powerful Superior Grade Sword Arts were difficult to obtain. Chu Mu only had the Golden Edge Sword Art.
Therefore, although the other Superior Grade Sword Arts were relatively ordinary, Chu Mu still cultivated them to increase his knowledge and accumulation in Swordsmanship. When facing an enemy, he mainly used the Golden Edge Sword Art, Cloud Shattering Sword Explosion, and Gale Sword Art. Although the Gale Sword Art was relatively ordinary, it contained 40% Wind Essence. Integrating it into the Gale Sword Art was enough to increase the power of the Gale Sword Art by four times, surpassing the power of the Golden Edge Sword Art.
Time passed little by little. In the blink of an eye, another ten days had passed.
Chu Mu, who was in the middle of cultivation, finished channeling the sword Qi. He opened his eyes and a ray of light shot out. He opened his mouth slightly and the turbid Qi condensed into a sword and spat out. It pierced through the air for more than three meters before dissipating.
Feeling the abundant sword Qi in his dantian, Chu Mu smiled. Finally, his sword Qi cultivation had broken through to the peak of Tenth Stage. His overall strength had increased again.
"If it's like last time and I'm chased by an ordinary Qi Transformation Realm Swordsman, I'll be able to kill him by myself," Chu Mu thought to himself.
While Chu Mu had improved, Luo Yufeng and the others had also improved. Luo Yufeng, who was half a step into the Qi Transformation Realm, had a sword aura that was even purer and denser. The others, on the other hand, had clearly improved because of the Qi Increasing Pill.
Originally, they had obtained ten Qi Increasing Pills from defeating Song Guangtao. Afterwards, they had obtained eighty Qi Increasing Pills from the Sword Academy. On average, each person had obtained at least ten Qi Increasing Pills. If they completely digested the ten Qi Increasing Pills, they could go from early Tenth Stage to late Tenth Stage, and from mid Tenth Stage to peak Tenth Stage.
After deducting the Qi Increasing Pills and the ones he had given to Chu Mu, as well as the Qi Increasing Pills he had obtained in the top hundred, Chu Mu still had twelve Qi Increasing Pills in his spatial bracelet.
Two days later, someone came to inform him that the top hundred had one chance to leave. They could return to their families or sword sects. Three months later, they had to return to the Sword Academy.
After Chu Mu and Luo Yufeng tidied up, they bade farewell to their fellow disciples and left the Sword Academy on their way back. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
