Flower City was very large, with a population of eight million. Generally speaking, it could be divided into five regions according to east, west, north, south, and center. Each region had a more detailed division. For better management, each region was divided into ten districts.
The center of the city was the largest, most prosperous, and most powerful region. The east, west, north, and south regions were about the same in overall strength. Within the same region, the ten districts' strength and prosperity were different. The Chu Sect Sword School was located in the eighth district of the east of the city. It was not considered high or low among the ten districts of the east of the city.
The eighth district of the east of the city had a population of more than 100,000. There were as many as a hundred private training places of varying sizes. The Chu Sect Sword School was only one of them. According to Chu Wangting's memories, the Chu Sect Sword School could even be listed as one of the top ten private training places in the eighth district of the east of the city.
One had to know that among these hundred private training places, more than twenty belonged to certain factions. The rest were private training places. As a private training place, it was a miracle for the Chu Sect Sword School to be able to enter the top ten. However, this miracle did not last for many years. With the death of Chu Wangting's father in a challenge, the Chu Sect Sword School began to decline. It was getting worse year by year.
In less than two years, the Chu Sect Sword School, which originally had thousands of disciples, had fallen to the point where it could barely maintain a hundred disciples. Now, because of the suppression of the outside world, there were only a dozen disciples left. This situation was not unique to the Chu Sect Sword School. In fact, all the private training places in the eighth district had been suppressed.
The reason was very simple. There was a martial arts school in the city center called Heaven's Net that was planning to expand. However, there were basically no personal training places in the city center. Even if there were, they had already been annexed by other martial arts schools. Therefore, if they wanted to develop further, they had to expand outwards.
The way to develop and expand was to establish branches in other districts. Then, they would purchase private training places at a low price and close them. If they were unwilling, they would use all kinds of despicable means to suppress them.
In the eighth district, there were more than seventy private training places. Until now, all of them had been purchased at a low price by the Tian Luo Martial Arts School and closed one after another. The disciples of those martial arts schools were naturally taken in by the Tian Luo Martial Arts School. Only the Chu Sect Sword School was left. It was very stubborn and could not be negotiated. Therefore, that faction hired the tyrant faction in the eighth district to constantly harass and oppress them. They planned to use this method to make the Chu Sect Sword School lose all their disciples.
Without disciples, it was naturally difficult for the Sword Pavilion to continue.
Chu Mu was very clear about the process. The reason why he did not kill those bullies was not because he was merciful, but because the current situation did not allow him to do so.
There was a very big gang in the Eastern District called the Bear Wolf Gang. They had subdued almost all the underground forces in the Eastern District and turned them into branches. The gang in District 8 was one of the branches of the Bear Wolf Gang.
Rumor had it that the Black Bear Gang had an Eternal Ancient Realm Saint Realm expert overseeing it. In the past, Eternal Ancient Realm experts were akin to ants, but now, Chu Mu was no match for an Eternal Ancient Realm expert. Not to mention an Eternal Ancient Realm expert, even a Nirvana Realm expert would be enough to deal with him.
It couldn't be helped. Although Chu Mu had condensed the Sword Dao Origin and his realm was extremely high, he had to re-cultivate all his self-created techniques and sword techniques before he could cultivate them again. In other words, without re-cultivating them, he could only use the techniques and sword techniques grasped by this body to fight his enemies.
In Chu Mu's view, the Cultivation Methods and sword skills of the Origin Realm were very weak. Even if his cultivation was high and his sword skills had reached the level of the Sword of Heaven and Earth, he could not cross so many levels to deal with an Eternal Ancient Realm Saint Realm enemy.
It was necessary to endure for a while.
This kind of advance and retreat was nothing to Chu Mu. He did not care at all.
"Big brother, are we really going to sell the Sword Pavilion?" Chu Wangdao asked. He was very puzzled because he knew very well that his big brother would rather die than sell the Sword Pavilion because it was his father's painstaking effort.
"It depends on the situation. If the price is right, we will sell it first." Chu Mu replied, "With enough money, we can buy more cultivation resources to improve our strength. When we are strong enough, we will reopen the Sword Pavilion."
Yes, this was Chu Mu's plan. Now, he wanted to re-cultivate as soon as possible and master more strength. Only then could he establish himself in this world. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous if he was not strong enough.
Listening to Chu Mu's words, Chu Wangdao did not express any opinion. Because since he was born, the matters of the Sword Pavilion had been presided over by his father. After his father passed away, it became his big brother's responsibility. All he did every day was cultivate.
…
In the eighth district of the eastern city, in the Tianluo Martial Arts School.
"Han Yu, go to the Chu Sect Sword Pavilion and give me a price," the master of the Tianluo Martial Arts School said.
"Yes." A young man with a sword on his back bowed slightly and walked out of the Martial Arts School, quickly heading for the Chu Sect Sword Pavilion.
Not long after, the young swordsman named Han Yu walked into the Chu Sect Sword Pavilion. At this time, more than a dozen disciples of the Chu Sect Sword Pavilion had already gone home because the Sword Pavilion did not provide food.
As soon as Han Yu stepped into the Sword Pavilion, he immediately released his aura. It was extremely sharp and cold, spreading in all directions.
Chu Mu walked out calmly and Chu Wangdao quickly followed. The moment he saw Han Yu, his whole body trembled and his hair stood on end. He felt a great threat from Han Yu. That kind of threat was enough to kill in an instant.
The difference in strength was too big. Han Yu was definitely beyond the Qi Realm. He was only at the peak of the Qi Realm, and his big brother was at the peak of the Qi Realm. Even if the two of them worked together, they would not be able to defeat Han Yu.
Han Yu's gaze turned and fell on Chu Mu's face. It was as sharp as a sword out of its scabbard, trying to pierce through Chu Mu's mind and shatter his resistance. Logically speaking, with his strength of the second level of the Origin Realm, his aura was shocking and his gaze was like a sword. Cultivators below the Origin Realm should not be able to resist.
However, Chu Mu's expression did not change at all. He was not affected at all.
"Pavilion Master Chu, I heard that you want to discuss the price." Han Yu suppressed the doubts in his heart and said coldly, "How much do you want to sell the Sword Pavilion?"
"The area of the Chu Sect Sword Pavilion is in the top three in the eighth district of the east city. This is an ancestral property, so of course it will not be sold at a low price." Chu Mu said calmly, "One hundred mid grade Primordial Stones or ten upper grade Primordial Stones."
Chu Mu's price was neither too high nor too low. It was in line. However, when Han Yu heard it, his expression changed slightly. This price was not the price he had in mind.
"Ten lower grade Primordial Stones." Han Yu said coldly.
The difference between ten lower grade Primordial Stones and one hundred mid grade Primordial Stones was more than a hundred times. How could Chu Mu agree to such a low price?
"Since you are not sincere, then get out." Chu Mu said.
"If you don't agree to ten Primordial Stones, then you will not get even one Primordial Stone." Han Yu said. Light shot out from his eyes. A terrifying aura poured out instantly like an invisible sword, slashing towards Chu Mu.
Chu Wangdao was affected and kept retreating. His expression changed and he shouted anxiously, "Big brother …"
However, Chu Mu's expression did not change. His body did not move at all. That sharp aura was like a breeze.
Han Yu's expression changed. The long sword on his back suddenly flew up. Sharp cold light flashed and sword Qi flew out. He raised his right hand, holding the sword hilt, and slashed down. A shocking Sword Light tore through the sky. The sword Qi overflowed and cut the ground.
This sword only had half of the power of a first level True Realm warrior. The purpose was not to kill Chu Mu, but to force him. Even so, its power was far beyond a twelfth level Mortal Realm warrior.
The moment Han Yu's sword slashed down, Chu Mu also had a sharp sword in his hand. He flicked it upwards and pierced through the air, piercing the back of Han Yu's hand that was holding the sword.
The intense pain spread quickly. Han Yu could not hold the sword in his hand anymore and it fell to the ground. Chu Mu's sword was already at Han Yu's throat. If he moved forward, the sword would pierce through Han Yu's throat.
Once a True Realm warrior's throat was pierced, he would not be able to survive.
Han Yu's face was pale. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He did not expect that he, a second level True Realm warrior, would not be able to withstand a single strike from his opponent. His opponent was only at the twelfth level of the Mortal Realm. Even if he only used a small part of his strength, his eyesight and reaction were not reduced.
There were people who could challenge someone of a higher level. But to be able to fight a first level True Realm warrior with a twelfth level Mortal Realm warrior was already an amazing genius. At most, it would be a draw.
According to the Deep Blue World, the twelfth level of the Mortal Realm was equivalent to the limit of the Qi Hai Realm. The first level of the True Realm was equivalent to the first three turns of the Ninth Transformation Realm.
A first level Origin Realm cultivator's Qi had been continuously refined and purified. Their bodies had also been strengthened and their strength had increased. There was only one person in the Flower City who could defeat a first level Origin Realm cultivator in the Mortal Realm. But in terms of defeating a first level Origin Realm cultivator with one strike, even in the Heavenly Star Sect's thirty six cities, no one could do it.
Casually challenging someone of a higher level and defeating him with one strike, it was like drinking water. Han Yu could not help but feel a chill in his heart.
"I did not kill you because I want you to bring a message back. Since you are not willing to pay me one hundred mid grade primeval stones, I have changed my mind. I want to challenge your Dojo Master. If I lose, the Chu Gate Sword Dojo will give it to me. If I win, the Tian Luo Dojo will give me one hundred high grade primeval stones." Chu Mu sheathed his sword and said softly, "There is only one chance. Whether you are willing or not, this news will soon spread throughout the Eastern District."
"Your strength is not weak and your talent is outstanding. However, my Tian Luo Martial Arts Dojo has countless experts. The dojo master is a ninth level Origin Realm expert. Going against my Tian Luo Martial Arts Dojo will only bring about your own destruction." Han Yu picked up his sword and coldly said. Then, he turned and left without looking back.
If he was not a match, staying would only be embarrassing himself. Plus, he still needed to report the strength and talent of the Chu Gate Sword Dojo's Dojo Master. He could not make the decision himself.
Seeing Han Yu leave, Chu Mu did not kill him. Firstly, he needed Han Yu to bring the flowers. Secondly, there were rules in the Dojo world. He did not have the strength to break the rules. If that was the case, he could only follow the rules for now.
