Looking at Head of Department James, although Fang Xingjian felt that it was a little strange, he still nodded and said, "I've just learned the fourth stage's Lightless Sword."
As he spoke, he activated the Mountain Shifting Sword and pinched a stone spike in his hand. Then, with a sweep of the stone sword, the space within a range of 100 meters instantly darkened. It was as if the sun in the sky had been blocked by a thick layer of clouds.
However, there were no clouds in the sky right now. This was not a natural phenomenon. It was because the Lightless Sword Fang Xingjian had activated had gathered the Sun's Divine Light, gathering all the radiation from the sun within a range of 100 meters onto the longsword in his hand.
The stone sword in his hand had turned into a white sword of light. Under the high temperature, it even continued to heat up the air, releasing hints of white steam.
Seeing this scene, Head of Department James laughed out loud. His face, which was already filled with wrinkles, was now like an old piece of bark, filled with crisscrossing ravines.
The eyes of the sword arts master Hoppes, who was the leader of the Regional Academy's Sword Arts Research Group, also lit up. "Excellent! Clearing the Killing Techniques Palace in a single day. Xingjian, what you've done today will definitely be recorded in history. It won't be long before your name is known throughout the world. "
The teachers at the side all wore gazes of great astonishment, envy, and admiration.
Clearing the Killing Techniques Palace in a single day sounded very cool. However, only Conferred Knights like them, who had walked out of the Killing Techniques Palace, truly knew how difficult it was.
This was not something that could be achieved just by saying it like a child. The amount of effort, hard work, preparation, talent, and foundation required was unimaginable.
They suddenly thought of what Head of Department James had said earlier. When Fang Xingjian reached their age, what level would Fang Xingjian have reached?
Hoult, Norman, and the others, who had been standing in the distance, had unknowingly walked over and listened to the conversation between Fang Xingjian and the others. When they heard that Fang Xingjian had cleared the Killing Techniques Palace in a single day and learned the Killing techniques in the four stages, their expressions were extremely interesting.
Hoult could not help but step forward. He stared into Fang Xingjian's eyes and asked, "Fang Xingjian, you've learned four sets of Killing techniques in the Killing Techniques Palace in a single day?"
Seeing that Fang Xingjian had nodded, Hoult's tone was filled with doubt, "But learning four sets of Killing techniques in a single day … I don't understand. How on earth did you do it?"
Although Hoult's sudden appearance was a little abrupt, his question was one that everyone present was curious about. Therefore, no one stopped him. Instead, all of them looked at Fang Xingjian, as if waiting for his answer.
Fang Xingjian gave it some thought and said, "Xingjian's talent. I can pick up any sword technique just by looking at it a few times. I'm Xingjian. Killing techniques that Fang Fang Xingjian '
Xingjian's Saying, "At, I Xingjian '," "Fang", "Hoult." Xingjian "
Hoult had thought of a bunch of theories and logic to refute Fang Xingjian's reply. If he could not refute Fang Xingjian, he could go back and try it out himself, then think of a way to surpass Fang Xingjian.
However, Fang Xingjian's answer was so simple.
To Conferred Knights like them, who had been training hard day and night, wanting to learn Killing techniques, synthesize Killing techniques, make up for their weaknesses, and increase their abilities, Fang Xingjian's talent was like a cheat code.
However, James immediately said in a deep voice, "Alright, Xingjian, let's not talk about this anymore." He knew how much hatred Fang Xingjian's words would attract. If a bunch of people who had been cultivating sword arts for over ten years or decades were to hear Fang Xingjian's words, they would be overwhelmed by jealousy and be so infuriated that they would vomit blood.
Therefore, James said, "Also, don't spread what we've just said."
Hoult asked again, a little unwilling to give up, "What's the maximum level for your sword arts?" He stared at Fang Xingjian, as if he would charge up if Fang Xingjian did not answer this question.
Right now, Fang Xingjian did not plan on hiding as much as he had done in the past. Right now, he had Terra Ingurgitation, Boundaries Negation, and four new Killing techniques. He also had a level 29 Superior Divine Armor protecting him. Therefore, he had fewer and fewer reservations. Moreover, he was still improving at an unbelievable speed.
Therefore, he did not say much, but still said, "Usually, it's around level 20 to 30."
Hearing Fang Xingjian's words, Hoult felt as if a rumble rang out in his mind, as if many thunderbolts had swept past him.
'Level 20 to 30?'
Hoult's current highest sword technique was at level 20, which was already at the maximum level. Yet, Fang Xingjian was able to reach level 30 at the maximum? What kind of concept was this? What a terrifying talent!
Everyone at the side also drew in a cold gasp. Usually, they would not even dare to think about a sword technique at the maximum level from level 20 to 30.
People like Ronan and Duolun, who had trained their sword arts to level 15, were already rare geniuses who could enter the Regional Academy and become Conferred Knights.
Those who were slightly stronger, like Hoult and the top ten in the academy, would be able to push their techniques to around level 20.
From this comparison, one could tell how astonishing Fang Xingjian's talent was. Moreover, he had reduced his level by ten. He had transitioned into a second transition job, the Heavenly Sword Sovereign, and his job specialty, the Heavenly Sword Imprint, was able to increase the maximum of his sword arts by ten levels.
James, the Head of Department, coughed and said, "Alright, it's enough that everyone knows about this. Don't spread it out." With that, his gaze suddenly turned sharp. "If I hear any related news from the outside, don't blame me for being impolite."
This was a gag order. No one was allowed to reveal any information regarding Fang Xingjian's sword arts levels.
After saying a few words with a straight face, James smiled and looked at Fang Xingjian, saying, "Xingjian, the results you've achieved this time around have exceeded my expectations. Once the news of you clearing the Killing Techniques Palace in a single day spreads out, our Great Western Region Regional Academy will also be in the limelight. "What requests do you have? Tell me now. If I can make the decision, I'll definitely agree to it."
Hoppes also said, "Xingjian, although you've rejected me twice, I still have to say that with your talent, it'll be a great waste if you don't join my sword arts team."
Hearing that Fang Xingjian had rejected Hoppes twice, the expressions of the others became even more interesting. There were quite a few of them who had wanted to join Hoppes' team.
However, right now, they could only look at Fang Xingjian with an envious gaze akin to that of a kitten or puppy.
Hearing that, James also said solemnly, "Xingjian, there are still many benefits to joining Hoppes' team. You'll be able to obtain many of the most advanced information and theories there. If you're worried about wasting too much time, how about this? You can choose to accept the arrangements of the laboratory. "If you have any other requests, just tell me. I'll definitely agree to them as long as it's within my capabilities."
Hearing James' words, everyone present was astonished once again.
However, this was just the beginning. Fang Xingjian gave it some thought and said, "I wish to participate in next year's National Selection and get first place. I'll need the academy's full support."
