After defeating Liu Ye, Chu Mu didn't stop. With a flash of Sword Light, he soared into the sky and returned to the Soaring Sky Courtyard. He headed straight for his Stone Pavilion.
As soon as he returned, Chu Mu immediately sat down to meditate and reflect on his battle with Liu Ye.
The process was short, but his improvement was obvious. There was still a lot of potential to be unearthed.
What he didn't know was that his battle with Liu Ye was known to the elders of the Flying Heaven Pavilion. In truth, the elders were aware of the cultivation of the Flying Heaven Pavilion's disciples. However, they didn't have the energy to observe every single disciple. They would only observe those who were worthy of their attention.
Most of Chu Mu's cultivation and battle were observed by the elders. His progress was reflected in their eyes, making them feel more satisfied and regretful at the same time. They sped up their search for treasures that could improve his cultivation talent.
…
Another month passed. During this time, Chu Mu became more proficient in the Sword Controlling Art. The time he needed to recite the thirty-six chants had decreased by half, and his speed of using the Sword Controlling Art had also increased.
He was also more proficient in using the Sword Controlling Art in battle. The ninth move of the Ice Sword Art, Dacheng, Breaking Through Clouds and Clear Sky had also improved. His overall strength had increased by leaps and bounds.
Chu Mu suddenly had an idea. He wanted to challenge the Soaring Sky Courtyard.
A month ago, he defeated Liu Ye. Now, he was even stronger than before. Apart from the chief disciple of the Soaring Sky Courtyard, no one else was his match.
How strong was the chief disciple of the Soaring Sky Courtyard?
Chu Mu didn't know. If the chief disciple wasn't as strong as him, he could sweep through the Soaring Sky Courtyard. If the chief disciple was stronger than him, he could learn from his battle with the chief disciple to strengthen himself.
After making his decision, Chu Mu left the Soaring Sky Courtyard for the Soaring Sky Courtyard without notifying anyone else.
His every move was under the surveillance of the Pavilion Elders.
The Soaring Sky Courtyard was quite far from the Soaring Sky Courtyard. Chu Mu used his movement technique and arrived at the Soaring Sky Courtyard an hour later.
Among the three courtyards, the Flat Sky Courtyard had the most disciples. The Soaring Sky Courtyard only had slightly fewer disciples than the Flat Sky Courtyard. The Soaring Sky Courtyard had the least disciples.
As soon as Zhang Xuan arrived at the entrance of the Soaring Sky Court, he was blocked by two disciples of the Soaring Sky Court.
"Stop, which courtyard are you from?" One of the two asked. There were only a few disciples in the Soaring Sky Court, and they recognized all of them, including the new ones. Chu Mu was clearly a new face.
"Soaring Sky Courtyard," Chu Mu replied calmly.
"Sky Soaring Court?" The two disciples from the Soaring Sky Court were stunned. They couldn't understand why a Soaring Sky Court disciple would come to the Soaring Sky Court.
While they were still in a daze, Chu Mu had already passed through them and strode away.
"Stop." The two of them reacted quickly. Their figures flashed, and they directly reached out to grab Chu Mu's arm. However, they only saw a shadow in front of them, and their hands suddenly missed. Chu Mu's figure was dozens of meters away.
The two of them used their movement techniques, and their speed was extremely fast. Although they didn't draw their swords, the power of their sword fingers was still very strong.
Sensing the two's attack, Chu Mu quickly counterattacked. The two of them were caught off guard and were struck in the stomach. A terrifying shockwave penetrated their armor and inner armor, and impacted their internal organs. Their blood and Qi churned, and with their abdomen as the center, a spinning shockwave spread out, causing their bodies to go limp. For a moment, they fell to the ground powerlessly.
This kind of attack was a combination of Mountain Shaking Energy and Mountain Piercing Energy. It could only be used on direct contact, and it also required the opponent to be unprepared. This kind of power couldn't kill them directly, but it would cause their blood and Qi to tremble, and their internal organs to tremble.
Of course, if the opponent was prepared or not weaker than Chu Mu, it could be blocked and greatly weakened.
This scene just happened to be seen by a few disciples of the Soaring Sky Court. Their faces immediately changed, and their figures flashed, and they quickly rushed over.
"Who are you?"
"How dare you commit murder in the Soaring Sky Court! Take him down!"
These people attacked at the same time, directly drawing their swords and slashing over.
Because they were afraid of destroying the Soaring Sky Court's environment, they didn't use any sword skills. Instead, they used the sword arts they had learned in the Flying Heaven Pavilion.
With a single glance, Chu Mu saw through their flaws. With a shift of his feet, he swept out his sword without drawing it out of its sheath. This sword contained all kinds of transformations, and his figure flashed past, instantly defeating the three. The combination of Mountain Shaking Energy and Mountain Piercing Energy once again smashed into their bodies, shaking their blood, Qi, and internal organs. Their muscles went limp, and they directly fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Along the way, he encountered many disciples of the Soaring Sky Court. The moment they saw Chu Mu's unfamiliar face, they immediately tried to stop him. After being ignored by Chu Mu, they all attacked, only to be countered by Chu Mu. Their bodies went limp, and they fell to the ground.
Some of the stronger ones were able to exchange a few moves with Chu Mu, but they were still hit by Chu Mu.
In terms of sword arts, no one in the Soaring Sky Court was Chu Mu's match.
These disciples didn't dare to use any powerful sword skills, and they didn't even use their full strength. Their goal was only to stop Chu Mu. Without much preparation, they naturally weren't Chu Mu's match.
Along the way to the Soaring Sky Court's Hundred Battles Pavilion, more than twenty disciples fell to Chu Mu's sword. If it were a life and death battle, they would all be killed by Chu Mu.
In the Hundred Battles Tower of the Soaring Sky Court, more than a dozen disciples were gathered there. Two people were fighting on the Hundred Battles Stage.
The two disciples who were knocked down first also recovered and quickly chased over.
"Who are you?" As soon as Chu Mu entered the Hundred Battles Pavilion, a pair of eyes immediately fell on him. When they saw that it was an unfamiliar face, they immediately questioned him.
"Soaring Sky Court's Chu Mu." Chu Mu replied indifferently. His figure flickered and landed on the Hundred Battles Platform. He unsheathed the Unreturnable Sword and drew a perfect Sword Light, forcing both sides to retreat.
"Soaring Sky Court's Chu Mu?"
"That's the guy who broke the entrance test record, but his cultivation talent is incomparably low?"
"He's really assigned to the Soaring Sky Court."
Their knowledge of Chu Mu was limited.
The Soaring Sky Court was the head of the three courts. Facing the Flat Sky Court and Soaring Sky Court, the disciples of the Soaring Sky Court were arrogant. They didn't think that the Flat Sky Court and Soaring Sky Court were worth mentioning, especially the Soaring Sky Court. Whether it was cultivation talent or other aspects, the Soaring Sky Court's disciples couldn't compare with them.
As such, the Soaring Sky Court's disciples often didn't know what was going on in the Soaring Sky Court. They felt that there was no need to pay attention to it, as it was purely a waste of time. Therefore, the disciples of the Soaring Sky Court didn't know that Chu Mu had become the lead disciple of the Soaring Sky Court and defeated the Flat Sky Court's Xiao Ling. Even if they did know, they wouldn't care and would soon forget about it.
As for Wang Wei and Sun Yuan being defeated by Chu Mu, and Liu Ye being injured by Chu Mu, the people involved wouldn't mention it. Xuanji Wuyue also didn't mention it, so the others naturally didn't know about it.
"What are you doing in our Soaring Sky Court?" One of the disciples on the Hundred Battles Platform stared at Chu Mu and sneered.
"To challenge," Chu Mu wasn't angry at all and replied indifferently. He raised the Unreturnable Sword and a Sword Light flashed.
"Challenge?"
"Did I hear wrong?"
"Hahahaha, this is too funny. A Soaring Sky Court's disciple actually came to our Soaring Sky Court to challenge …"
"This is the funniest joke I've heard in decades."
Their mockery didn't anger Chu Mu. Chu Mu's expression was indifferent as he allowed them to laugh all they wanted. Only when they were done laughing did he say, "Sun Yuan and Wang Wei didn't tell you that they went to the Soaring Sky Court to challenge me and were defeated by my sword? Liu Ye didn't tell you that he was also defeated by my sword a month ago?"
Chu Mu's words stunned the Soaring Sky Court's disciples. They thought they were hallucinating.
Sun Yuan, Wang Wei, and Liu Ye were the fourth, third, and second senior brothers of the Soaring Sky Court. They were extremely powerful, so how could they be defeated by Chu Mu?
"I'm dying of laughter. I take back what I just said. This is the funniest joke I've heard in my life. I guarantee that this is the funniest joke I've heard in my life."
"Is this how daydreaming is supposed to be?"
"This is simply insane."
No one believed Chu Mu's words. They looked at Chu Mu as if they were looking at an idiot.
"I'm right here. Who wants to fight me?" Chu Mu didn't care about their mockery and directly said.
"Alright, I'll teach you a lesson," said one of the people on the Battle Stage.
"Ten thousand high-grade origin crystals and one hundred flying points," said Chu Mu.
"No problem. Since you want to give these to me, I'm more than happy to do so." The other party smiled.
Another person flew down the Battle Stage.
On the Battle Stage, the battle immediately began.
This person used a sword art to attack Chu Mu, but he was defeated by Chu Mu in a single move.
"How is this possible?"
They couldn't believe it.
"I'll go!" Another person didn't believe it and shouted. He landed on the Battle Stage and started fighting with Chu Mu.
Just like the first person, this person was also defeated by Chu Mu in a single move.
"Call your Head Senior Brother over. You guys aren't my match," said Chu Mu indifferently.
The other disciples were hesitant when they saw Chu Mu defeating two people in two moves. But when they heard Chu Mu's words, they were instantly enraged. Another person charged onto the Battle Stage and fought with Chu Mu. However, he was also defeated by Chu Mu in a single move.
At this point, Chu Mu had obtained thirty thousand high-grade origin crystals and three hundred flying points. The flying points in his identity token had reached one thousand four hundred and thirty.
"This is indeed a good way to obtain flying points." Chu Mu was tempted. He didn't know how many times he would need to comprehend Wukong's sword art. The more flying points he had, the better.
The fourth disciple was defeated by Chu Mu in a single move. Chu Mu obtained another ten thousand high-grade origin crystals and one hundred flying points.
At this point, the disciples of the Soaring Sky Academy finally understood that they weren't Chu Mu's match. Perhaps, only the top ten Senior Brothers could defeat Chu Mu.
"Just you wait if you have the guts!" A disciple shouted at Chu Mu.
"I'll wait. Call your Head Senior Brother over," said Chu Mu.
