In the battle with Fang Qi Shao, Chu Xiu seemed to have lost, but in fact, he had gained something.
The Heaven's Son Gazing at Air could only have an obvious breakthrough under this kind of pressure. If Fang Qi Shao was willing to be Chu Xiu's sparring partner, Chu Xiu was even confident that he could cultivate the Heaven's Son Gazing at Air to a proficient level in a short period of time.
But obviously, this was not going to happen. Now, Fang Qi Shao was already very unhappy. Although he had won in the end, he felt like he had suffered a loss.
After the younger generation's arena competition was over, the prizes were not distributed on the spot. Instead, they were going to be distributed to everyone after the World Sword Sect Conference ended.
Next, it was time for the Martial Dao masters to spar with each other. Everyone was excited about it.
After all, for most of the warriors present, it was very difficult for them to see martial arts grandmaster level experts fight. Even if they could not understand it, as long as they saw it, it would be enough for them to brag for a long time.
Han Tingyi and the other people from the five major sword sects looked at each other. They walked down the high platform at the same time and stood in the arena.
Everyone present instantly started discussing in low voices when they saw these people. These people were all renowned grandmasters of the Sword Dao from the five major sword sects.
The beautiful woman in palace attire from the Yue Nu Palace was the current palace master of the Yue Nu Palace, 'Moon Shadow Star Mark' Lin Fengya. Although she was not famous in the martial arts world, she was not small either. Of course, her fame was mostly because of her identity as the palace master of the Yue Nu Palace.
Lin Fengya was ranked 25th on the Honor List. Her ranking was even higher than Han Tingyi in the Sword Hut.
But in reality, the people of the martial arts world also knew that Lin Fengya's ranking on the Honor List was actually somewhat high. With her strength, it was difficult for her to even enter the top 30. Now, she was ranked 25th because of her identity as the palace master of the Yue Nu Palace. More importantly, it was because she was one of the few women on the Honor List that her ranking was so high.
The martial artist with seven swords on his back was the master of the Hidden Sword Villa, 'Heartless Sword Tomb' Cheng Tingshan. He originally carried ten swords, but the other three had been broken.
He had broken three swords and killed three people. Of the three people who had died, one was a murderer who had become sworn enemies with the Hidden Sword Villa in the past, while the other two were powerful figures of the Demonic Dao. Cheng Tingshan's strength was not weak among the Martial Dao Masters.
However, the Hidden Sword Villa had been on the decline recently, and Cheng Tingshan was not a woman, so naturally, he did not receive any preferential treatment. Therefore, he was only ranked 33rd on the Honor Roll, not even in the top 30.
The white-robed warrior from Swordking City was the First Seat of Swordking City's Xingjian Hall, 'Formless Sword' Bai Qian. He was ranked 30th on the Windcloud List, second only to Han Tingyi of the Sword Hut.
Among the four major Sword Halls of Swordking City, the Xingjian Hall specialized in sword techniques. However, Bai Qian had already transformed his sword techniques into a realm where incorporeal triumphed over corporeal, so his nickname was Formless Sword. From this, one could see Bai Qian's terrifying cultivation in the Way of the Sword.
The last person was the white-robed, barefooted young man with a broken sword mark on his forehead from the Windcloud Sword Tomb. In fact, among the five Martial Dao Masters, he had the most powerful background.
The Windcloud Sword Tomb was a place where swords were hidden. Legend had it that in ancient times, when some Sword Dao Masters were on the verge of death, they would bury their swords in a place. That place was the Windcloud Sword Tomb according to the customs of the Jianghu.
The swords of the Sword Dao Masters were definitely extremely precious weapons, or even divine weapons. Therefore, the disciples or servants of the Sword Dao Masters would spontaneously build huts around the Windcloud Sword Tomb to protect the divine weapons and treasured swords in the tomb.
Later on, as the number of people guarding the Windcloud Sword Tomb increased, their descendants also multiplied, and they joined together to form a Sword Dao Sect.
It could be said that the Windcloud Sword Tomb was the inheritance of countless Sword Dao Masters in the past. It could be said that the Windcloud Sword Tomb was the strongest among the five major Sword Sects.
Moreover, even if the Windcloud Sword Tomb's experts of a certain generation withered, no one dared to provoke it, because no one knew what kind of mysterious or evil existence Windcloud Sword Tomb would invite from the place where swords were hidden.
Legend had it that the Windcloud Sword Tomb suffered a blow more than two thousand years ago. The entire Windcloud Sword Tomb was left with an old Martial Dao Master. Therefore, an enemy sect came to the Windcloud Sword Tomb. The enemy had six Martial Dao Masters, and the sect's experts gathered, wanting to completely destroy the Windcloud Sword Tomb.
In the end, the old Martial Dao Master used his own blood as a sacrifice to invite a sword spirit that was formed from the Windcloud Sword Tomb's countless killing intents. It actually slaughtered the six Martial Dao Masters.
Although the Martial Dao Master of the Windcloud Sword Tomb exhausted his blood and passed away in less than three days, it also let the entire Underworld know that the Windcloud Sword Tomb was not to be trifled with. Even if there was only one person left, no one knew what other trump cards he had.
The white-clothed barefooted young man had a very mysterious origin.
Legend had it that outsiders couldn't enter the Windcloud Sword Tomb's Land of Buried Swords. To be precise, only warriors with Qi could enter, as long as they approached, they would trigger the formation.
Because the Land of Buried Swords was connected to a barren forest, a wild wolf entered the Land of Buried Swords with a baby boy in its mouth. It threw the baby boy next to a broken sword and fed him with wolf milk every day.
The baby boy didn't cry or make a fuss. He was only discovered by the people of the Windcloud Sword Tomb when he was three years old. For a time, the entire Windcloud Sword Tomb was shaken.
For some reason, the baby boy seemed to have formed a strange connection with the broken sword beside him. The broken sword's spirit had dissipated, and a new spirit was born, turning it into a new God Weapon.
Later, the baby was raised by the Windcloud Sword Tomb and accepted as a disciple. Even the deceased previous leader of the Windcloud Sword Tomb, the old Sword God Guo Mo, took him as a disciple and taught him swordsmanship.
Because he didn't have parents and didn't even know what his surname was, Guo Mo named him Yan Zhi because the broken sword that accompanied him was called Yan Zhi.
Yan Zhi also became the most special existence in the Windcloud Sword Tomb. He was born with a God Weapon, and that God Weapon was connected to his flesh and blood. When he cultivated to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm, the God Weapon could fuse with his body. No matter how long he lived, he could guarantee that he wouldn't age. It was very miraculous.
Yan Zhi was ranked 23rd on the Windcloud Sword Tomb, but everyone in the Underworld said that Yan Zhi's ranking was definitely higher than that. He didn't fight many times, but every time he did, he would easily defeat his opponents. Under the broken sword, there was no one who survived.
Among the five people present, Yan Zhi could be said to be the strongest and the most unfathomable. If there were no accidents, the champion of this arena competition should be Yan Zhi.
However, although the five of them were going to compete on the arena, those who were familiar with the inside story knew that they were just putting on a show for the Devil Dao.
The Good Fortune Heavenly Demon Flag didn't have much meaning to the Five Great Sword Sects. They wouldn't fight to the death for this thing. The only goal of the five of them going on the arena was to lure the Devil Dao to attack.
Han Tingyi said to everyone present in a deep voice, "Everyone, the second round has begun. I will first show my incompetence. Our Five Great Sword Sects will exchange pointers with each other, so we won't waste time with one-on-one games. The five of us will fight together to determine the winner."
As he spoke, Han Tingyi and the other four began to fight, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present.
It was indeed rare to see five sword masters fight, but Chu Xiu only took a few glances before losing interest.
These people were really acting. They weren't paying attention at all.
Although the five of them fought with sword qi and astral energy, in reality, the five of them didn't even use 10% of their power.
Han Tingyi didn't use the powerful sword intent of the Sword Hut at all. Cheng Tingshan only used one of his seven swords, and he didn't use the White Submerged Invisible Sword either. Instead, he used many sword moves that looked gorgeous but were just for show.
Lin Fengya was the same. She didn't use the natural power of the Yue Maiden Swordplay. It wasn't even as good as Yan Feiyan's previous attack.
The one who was the most outrageous was Yan Zhi. Everyone wanted to see how he would fuse the Yan Zhi Sword into his body. In the end, he did not even draw his sword. He condensed his True Qi and used his sword fingers to attack. It was really outrageous.
Of course, for the wandering martial artists, Han Tingyi and the others were already "fighting" fiercely enough. They enjoyed watching.
After about two hours of chaotic fighting, the five of them finally decided the winner. The final winner was actually Cheng Tingshan of the Hidden Sword Villa.
Seeing this result, everyone present curled their lips. They really didn't pay attention. How could such a result come out?
However, the people from the five major sword sects didn't care about the discussions below. Han Tingyi cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, the outcome of our five major sword sects' spar has been decided. Villa Master Cheng of the Hidden Sword Villa has deep attainments in the way of the sword and is ahead of us. Is there anyone else who wants to come up and spar? The winner can take away the Demonic Creation Flag! "
The martial arts masters below all raised their eyebrows, but no one said a word.
They all knew that this time, the people from the five major sword sects wanted to lure out the people from the demonic path. They didn't object to this, but they also couldn't be bothered to get involved. So naturally, no one spoke at this time.
However, at this time, a hoarse old voice came from below.
"Can your five major sword sects act any more fake? This kid from the Hidden Sword Villa has no attainments in the way of the sword. He carries so many swords all day like a peacock spreading its tail. Doesn't he know that the more cocky a person is, the faster they die? Who is' Ten Directions Divine Sword 'Cheng Nanbei to you? Is he your grandfather or your great-grandfather? That old guy also likes to carry ten swords on his back and run around in the pugilistic world. In the end, I broke his neck and broke nine of his swords. The remaining one looked good, so I made it into a door bolt. It's still hanging on the door of my cottage! "
