Seeing that Ronan still did not believe him, the two students became even more anxious and shouted, "He's Fang Xingjian, this year's Regional Champion, a genius who has comprehended all seven levels of the Pantheon Monument's profoundness."
"He really managed to bring the Thunderbolt Sword Technique to level 10 within an hour."
Seeing the serious expressions on their faces, Ronan's brows furrowed. He still found it hard to believe such a thing. It was too unbelievable.
This was like someone telling a high school teacher that someone had finished all the papers in ten minutes for the college entrance examination and had even gotten full marks. Who would believe it?
Ronan, who was like a mountain of flesh, shook his head and said, "Even if it's seven levels of the Pantheon Monument's knowledge, to be able to bring the Thunderbolt Sword Technique to level 10 within an hour? Even Divine level experts have never done something like this. Have you heard of the Pantheon Monument left behind by the Melancholic Monarch two hundred years ago that he was able to bring a Killing technique to level 10 within an hour? "
The two students were left speechless, unable to reply.
That's right, Fang Xingjian was able to do something that even Divine level experts had not been able to do?
The two students immediately became extremely suspicious.
Looking at the two of them who were hesitating, Luo Nan smiled and revealed a pleased expression. He said, "That's why it's impossible to cultivate the Thunderbolt Sword Technique to level 10 within an hour. According to my estimation …" As he spoke, he stroked his double chin and said, "This guy should have cultivated the Thunderbolt Sword Technique beforehand and cultivated it all the way to level 10. Then, he came here to pretend that he had just started cultivating it."
"It's not just level 10. From what Brother Duolun said, he's already at level 12."
"And what's the point of him doing this?"
"Point?" Fatso Ronan sneered. He thought that he had figured out the reason, and his tone became even more confident, "What else could there be? To pretend to be a genius? Since young, have you guys not seen many 'geniuses' who don't work hard during the day but secretly work hard at night? "He's just another guy who likes to put on an act."
As Ronan said that, he looked in the direction of Fang Xingjian and Rota and intentionally said loudly, "Remember this. The path of cultivation for Conferred Knights is arduous. Instead of taking things one step at a time, you'll be wasting your time in order to pretend to have talent. You'll be taking your future as a joke."
The two students nodded subconsciously, and their gazes toward Fang Xingjian were filled with disdain.
Rota couldn't take it anymore and retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about? "Moreover, Fang Xingjian only participated in the Regional Selection a month ago and only completed his job transition this month. How would he have the time to cultivate the Thunderbolt Sword Technique in advance?"
Hearing Rota's words, Luo Nan was speechless for a time. He then said impatiently, "I don't care how he cheated. In any case, it's my turn. Just obediently learn the Mountain Shifting Sword. I'm not as weak as Duolun. And I definitely won't go easy on him."
Luo Nan was ranked thirty-fourth and was a level 23 Conferred Knight. His Mountain Shifting Sword had also reached level 15 perfection, and his sword arts prowess was above that of Duolun's.
However, no matter what they said, Fang Xingjian turned a deaf ear to them. How could a few meaningless trash-talk and personal conflicts compare to the importance of learning sword arts? He would naturally speak with his sword arts later on.
Moreover, the Mountain Shifting Sword was even more powerful and complicated than the Thunderbolt Sword Technique in the previous stage.
It was as the two students had said. The four stages and four sets of sword techniques in the Killing Techniques Palace were arranged according to the order of difficulty.
The Thunderbolt Sword Technique in the previous stage summoned the ether particles in the air and turned them into lightning powers to attack.
However, the Mountain Shifting Sword used the sword force to guide the terrain, changing the geomagnetism and the power of the earth to guide the movement of the earth's tectonic plates, changing the terrain and creating earthquakes.
How immense and violent was the energy contained in the earth? Once the various heat and kinetic energies were unleashed, they could destroy an entire city.
How complicated would the sword theories behind the Mountain Shifting Sword be in order to control and stimulate such powers?
The moment Fang Xingjian laid his eyes on the Mountain Shifting Sword, he was attracted by the exquisite theory behind it.
He had carefully memorized each and every word. Thankfully, the conditions in the Regional Academy were outstanding enough, and there had been many experts in the past. The Mountain Shifting Sword was filled with a large amount of annotations, all of which were the opinions of the experts in the past. Those who were able to leave their words here were naturally not ordinary people.
Fang Xingjian even saw the opinions Hoppes had left behind. All of them dissected the difficult parts and explained them bit by bit, making it much easier for people to learn the Mountain Shifting Sword.
However, even though Fang Xingjian had read through every word, to everyone present, the speed at which he was reading the book was still far too fast. He was not like ordinary Conferred Knights, who would need to spend half a day trying to decipher each sentence of the Mountain Shifting Sword.
Fang Xingjian had only read one sentence, paused for a moment, and then immediately read the next sentence once he had understood the profoundness within.
Seeing the speed at which Fang Xingjian was reading the sword, Ronan could not help but let out a cold snort, "Putting on an act."
After reading in detail for about forty minutes or so, Fang Xingjian shook his head and did not continue reading.
The two students who saw this scene became nervous. It was because this scene seemed to have just happened when they were learning the Thunderbolt Sword Technique. They looked at Fang Xingjian and thought in astonishment, 'Could it be that he's learned it again? This time around, he's even faster than the previous time? '
Ronan's brows furrowed, and Rota asked directly, "Xingjian, you've learned it?"
"Learned it?" Fang Xingjian shook his head, "How can that be possible? This sword technique is very complicated. How could he have learned it in such a short period of time?"
"Then you …"
"I'm going to eat." Fang Xingjian looked at Ronan and said, "Do you guys still want to go out for your meals? Is there no one to send you in? "
Of course, there was a food delivery service. However, seeing how Fang Xingjian still had the time to eat in the midst of learning the sword technique, everyone present felt helpless.
"Putting on an act." Ronan let out a cold laugh and shook his head. He did not believe that Fang Xingjian had managed to learn the Thunderbolt Sword Technique within an hour. He said to the two students next to him, "You can just bring them out to eat. I'm going to sleep."
After that, he raised his head and fell to the ground. Not long after, bursts of snoring could be heard.
However, Fang Xingjian did not care so much. If it had been in the wild, there would have been nothing he could do about it. However, since he was in the Regional Academy, he naturally had to ensure that he ate once every two hours, ensuring that he had sufficient energy, essence, and nutrition intake.
Only with sufficient energy would he be able to ensure that his body would be growing stronger through self-cultivation twenty-four hours a day, not wasting a single minute or second.
The two students were helpless and could only bring him to the canteen in the Killing Techniques Palace.
The entire Killing Techniques Palace received Conferred Knights to train here, and the Conferred Knights would need to train for several days or even months. Therefore, it was impossible for them to go out to eat every single time. The canteen was self-provided.
After finishing his meal, Fang Xingjian returned to read up on the Mountain Shifting Sword. Finally, one and a half hours later, he drew out the Demoness' Howl.
