"The Bronze Sword List Nomination Competition has ended. The final winner is the King of Sword, Chu Mu," the referee announced.
Coupled with the title of "King of Sword," this sentence sounded even more imposing and shocking.
With the referee's announcement, the competition was over. The students and other defeated nominees left one after another. In the end, only Chu Mu and the two referees were left in the arena.
"Congratulations, Chu Mu. You have won. Now, you are ranked 100th on the Bronze Sword List," the referee standing on the left said with a smile.
"At your age, our cultivation is only at the initial success of Qi Transformation. We have no fate with the Bronze Sword List," the referee on the right said with a smile.
"You are flattering me, Mr. Referee." Chu Mu smiled and cupped his hands in respect.
"I think with your strength, you should not be ranked 100th on the Bronze Sword List. But whether you want to continue the challenge is up to you." The referee on the left continued, "Since you are on the Bronze Sword List, I will tell you the benefits of being on the Bronze Sword List."
Chu Mu looked like he was all ears.
"There are three benefits for being on the Bronze Sword List. First, according to the ranking, you can receive extra credits and low-grade spirit stones every month. According to the ranking, the 100th place can receive 10 low-grade spirit stones and 1,000 credits every month, and so on. The 99th place can receive 20 low-grade spirit stones and 2,000 credits. " The referee continued, "Second, students on the Bronze Sword List will receive a 30% discount when they go to the Scripture Tower, Sword Tool Pavilion, Elixir Pavilion, and so on. That is to say, if you originally need 100,000 credits, you will only need 70,000."
"Discount …" Chu Mu was slightly stunned. He felt as if he was doing some sort of discount.
"The third benefit is the Sword Comprehension Room."
"Sword Comprehension Room?" Chu Mu did not understand.
"When you were in the Outer Palace, you entered the Cultivation Holy Land, right?" the referee on the right asked with a smile.
"Yes." Chu Mu nodded. The effect of the Cultivation Holy Land was amazing. What made him feel regretful was that there was no Cultivation Holy Land in the Inner Mansion, so he couldn't quickly increase his Intent Realm.
"The Sword Comprehension Room is similar to a Cultivation Holy Land. Of course, the effect is not as obvious as a Cultivation Holy Land. It only has about 20% of a Cultivation Holy Land."
"But don't underestimate this 20%. The cultivation holy land of the Outer Mansion was aimed at Concepts below Small Success. But the Sword Comprehension Room was not only effective for Concepts below Small Success, but it was also effective for Concepts at Small Success. The limit was Dacheng's Concept. It's extremely difficult to form a Cultivation Sacred Land. It took many years for our Sword Mansion's Outer Mansion to be able to form a Cultivation Sacred Land. "
"Although the effect of the Sword Comprehension Room is far less than that of the Cultivation Holy Land, it is still more helpful than comprehending outside. Moreover, it is more comprehensive. No matter what kind of intent realm it is, it can speed up the comprehension, even if it is comprehending martial arts or sword arts."
After the explanation, Chu Mu understood the so-called Sword Comprehension Room.
The Cultivation Holy Land was good, but it could only target a corresponding intent realm, and it could only be below Small Success.
The effect of the Sword Comprehension Room was not as good as that of the Cultivation Holy Land, but it was much better than outside. Moreover, the limit was below Dacheng's level. It did not target any intent realm, and even martial arts and sword arts could be used to battle.
For Chu Mu, this was good news.
Because his Tearing Intent Realm was a rare high-end variant intent realm. The difficulty of comprehending such an intent realm could be imagined. It would probably be slower than the Gold Intent Realm.
The appearance of the Sword Comprehension Room was equivalent to giving Chu Mu a small cheat for comprehending intent realm. Of course, this cheat belonged to the public. At least the students on the Bronze Sword Ranking were qualified to use it.
Chu Mu could not help but sigh. It was no wonder that once one was on the Bronze Sword Ranking, it was rare to hear of someone being defeated because of a challenge. With the support of these benefits, if one could not improve faster than others …
If one was not a pig, it could only mean that the others were too terrifying.
"By the way, Mr. Referee, what are the restrictions for using the Sword Comprehension Room?" Chu Mu suddenly asked. Although it was a benefit, it should be very difficult to build a place like the Sword Comprehension Room. It could not be provided for free.
"There are only ten Sword Comprehension Rooms in total, because the resources needed to build one are too much." The referee smiled and said, "Therefore, to use the Sword Comprehension Room, not only do you need to spend credits, but you also need to bring your own spirit stones."
"How is it calculated?" Chu Mu was already interested in the Sword Comprehension Room, so he immediately asked.
"The usage of the Sword Comprehension Room is calculated according to the hours. Every hour costs 10,000 credits and 100 low-grade spirit stones. These 10,000 credits and 100 low-grade spirit stones must be given to the elders of the Sword Comprehension Room in advance," the referee explained.
Chu Mu nodded.
The two referees saw that Chu Mu had amazing potential. As long as he did not die, his future achievements would be limitless. Therefore, the two of them tried their best to leave a good impression on Chu Mu and befriend Chu Mu.
To them, this was not a loss. On the contrary, it was a great benefit. Perhaps in the future, they would need to rely on Chu Mu.
"By the way, may I ask, Chu Mu, what is your cultivation talent?" the referee on the right suddenly asked, as if he had suddenly thought of something.
"Seventh grade," Chu Mu replied. This was not a secret. It could be found with a simple search.
"Seventh grade!" The two referees were shocked, and then a trace of sadness flashed through their eyes. "I don't know if Chu Mu has heard of the phrase 'talent determines one's achievements'."
Chu Mu shook his head.
"That's true. Ordinary books would not record this. But since you're talking about it, I'll explain it to you." The referee sighed, seemingly regretful. "The phrase 'talent determines one's achievements' refers to the level of one's cultivation talent. In the end, the level of one's sword qi cultivation is determined by the level of one's cultivation talent. Since ancient times, cultivation talent has been divided into ten grades. The ten grades represent one's potential. The first grade is the highest, and the tenth grade is the lowest. The higher one's cultivation talent, the faster one can absorb spirit qi and transform it into sword qi, and the faster one's cultivation will increase. On the other hand, the lower one's cultivation talent, the slower it will be. "
Chu Mu listened carefully. Although he already knew this, he still felt that it was not so simple.
"The most important point is that the higher one's cultivation talent, the higher one's cultivation realm will be in the future. Let me give you an example. For example, a swordsman with a tenth grade cultivation talent can only reach half-step into the Qi Transformation Realm without any fortuitous encounters. That is the limit. It is extremely difficult for him to break through to the Qi Transformation Realm. As for a swordsman with a ninth grade cultivation talent, not only can he reach half-step into the Qi Transformation Realm in a short period of time, he also has a high chance of breaking through to the Qi Transformation Realm and reaching the Qi Transformation Realm. The upper limit of an eighth grade cultivation talent is the Qi Hai Realm. In other words, Chu Mu, the upper limit of your seventh grade cultivation talent is the Ninth Revolution Realm. "
As they spoke, the two referees looked at Chu Mu with eyes full of pity. Such a monster was actually limited by his cultivation talent?
Chu Mu was also somewhat stunned.
"But you don't have to worry. Cultivation talent does not determine one's achievements 100%. Since ancient times, there have been some people who have broken this saying." As if comforting Chu Mu, the referee hurriedly added, "Moreover, you are still only in the Qi Transformation Realm. Above the Qi Transformation Realm is the Qi Hai Realm and the Ninth Revolution Realm. If you want to train to the peak of the Ninth Revolution Realm, you still need a long time. Therefore, you have enough time to find treasures that can increase your cultivation talent and increase your potential again."
Chu Mu regained his senses and opened his eyes once again. He thought to himself that if he did not enter the Empty Realm of Qing Lan and obtain the Qing Lan Holy Fruit and increase his cultivation talent from the ninth grade to the seventh grade, wouldn't it mean that he could only cultivate to the Qi Transformation Realm?
"The referees are right. I still have enough time to look for treasures that can increase my cultivation talent," Chu Mu said in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing. He was not disheartened by what the referees said.
"Good. You need to have this kind of confidence. With this kind of confidence, I believe that even if your cultivation talent cannot be increased, you can still break through the Ninth Revolution Realm and reach the Origin Realm," the referee shouted.
"The Ancient Sword Continent is huge. When you become stronger, you can go out and travel. At that time, you might be lucky enough to find treasures that can increase your cultivation talent," the other referee said.
Chu Mu sincerely saluted the two referees with his sword. Although he knew that his cultivation talent of the seventh grade would limit his cultivation in the future, Chu Mu still broadened his horizons and increased his knowledge, allowing him to prepare in advance.
"Oh right, take out your identity sword token." The referee on the left changed the topic. After taking Chu Mu's identity sword token, he checked it and returned it to Chu Mu. Chu Mu checked it and found that there was one more piece of information about him: Bronze Sword Leaderboard, 100th.
Then, the three of them casually chatted for a while before Chu Mu said goodbye to the two referees.
"What a pity. The heavens are blind. Such a monster only has a seventh grade cultivation talent. Could it be that the heavens are jealous of him?"
"Although there are treasures in this world that can increase one's cultivation talent, there are too few of them. Moreover, treasures are usually guarded by powerful demonic beasts. It is extremely difficult to obtain them."
"Everything will depend on his own fortune. Even in our Sword Mansion, we don't have such a treasure."
The two referees sighed. The reason why they did not say these words in front of Chu Mu was because they were afraid of hurting Chu Mu. They wanted to give Chu Mu some hope.
Although there had been people who had broken through the limits of their cultivation talent, they had only broken through one limit. For example, if a person with a seventh grade cultivation talent cultivated to the Origin Realm, the price would be the overdraft of their potential, which would affect their life force and greatly reduce their lifespan.
If one wanted to cultivate to a higher realm, there was only one way: to increase one's cultivation talent. That was equivalent to increasing one's own potential.
They did not know if this monster of a Chu Mu could increase his cultivation talent in the end. However, there was nothing they could do to help. Everything would depend on himself.
