In the sky above Cool Breeze Valley, the huge wind leak had become very thin as the wind continued to dissipate. When the last wisp of wind dissipated, the entire wind leak had completely disappeared, indicating the end of the flag planting battle.
"Damn it!" The prodigy of the General Pavilion was holding a red flag and rushing to the top of the obelisk, intending to take down a blue flag and replace it. However, the wind leak had completely disappeared.
Six to four!
There were four red flags and six blue flags in the obelisks on the top of the ten mountains. The Four Extremes Alliance had gained the upper hand.
The prodigies of the Four Extremes Alliance were very happy with this result. In the past, the Four Extremes Alliance had always been at a disadvantage. It was very rare for them to gain the upper hand in the first battle.
How did they achieve a score of six to four?
The reason was simple. Chen Zong had won at the beginning and then rushed to the other mountains to reinforce them.
The prodigies of the General Pavilion were very targeted. They were all very powerful and targeted the prodigies of the branch pavilions. In terms of ranking, the prodigies of the General Pavilion were all ranked higher than the General Pavilion's prodigies.
A higher ranking meant that they were more powerful.
For example, on Chen Zong's side, the blade-wielding prodigy was ranked in the top 8,000. Under normal circumstances, he should have been able to suppress Chen Zong.
However, no one had expected Chen Zong's strength to increase so unexpectedly. His swordsmanship was also astonishingly superb. In the end, their targeted prodigy was destroyed.
After the first mistake, the next mistake was made on top of the previous mistake.
With Chen Zong's help, the Four Extremes Alliance had six flags in the end. On the other hand, the General Pavilion only had four flags. Chen Zong alone had inserted one flag and two flags as reinforcements. His contribution was extraordinary.
This was because there was not enough time. If there was more time, they might have been able to insert one more flag.
However, being able to get a score of six to four was already very amazing. It was worth celebrating.
Based on this ratio, the Four Extremes Alliance would receive six years of cultivation resources, while the Headquarters' prodigies would receive four years.
This meant that the prodigies of the Four Extremes Alliance could cultivate in places like the Enlightenment Pagoda and the Divine Martial Jade Wall for six years, while the prodigies of the Main Tower could only cultivate for four years.
"This time, it's all thanks to Chen Zong." The Han Clan already knew the general situation.
"That's right, Chen Zong has done a great job this time." Luo Shu was also very happy.
Everyone also expressed their gratitude to Chen Zong.
Chen Zong responded with a smile. He was not arrogant because of this. He was more interested in the Dao Enlightenment Pagoda and the Divine Martial Jade Annulus.
While the Four Extremes Alliance was rejoicing, the sky-prides of the headquarters were in a gloomy mood. Some of them were depressed, and their expressions were ugly.
Originally, they were in high spirits. They wanted to make the branch suffer a great loss, suppress them, and snatch their resources. Who would have thought that the result would be the opposite of what they had planned? In the first clash, not only did they fail to make the Four Extremities Alliance suffer a great loss, they didn't even gain the slightest advantage. Instead, they were at a disadvantage.
This was undoubtedly a great blow to them.
One had to know that the prodigies of the Main Tower had always had the upper hand in every competition before this. They had embarrassed the Main Tower's prodigies.
"Alright, we're all responsible for this failure." Jiu Guang, who was ranked second on the Cool Breeze List, squinted his eyes and released a terrifying Qi that swept across the area. It was as if he was trying to disperse the depressing atmosphere. "But it doesn't matter. Next time, we'll get it back."
"You're right. Next time, we'll get it back and show the people of the Main Tower how powerful we are."
"Let's sum up the lesson of this failure. We underestimated the sword cultivator Chen Zong. We thought he was only ranked in the 8,000th place on the Divine General List, but we didn't expect his true strength to be so much higher than his ranking. I guess he's close to the 7,000th place." The expert who ranked fourth on the Breeze List analyzed while twirling a small round ball.
"Chen Zong's swordsmanship is superb and amazing. He's a rare talent. Let's get in touch with him and win him over. It's best if he can join our Main Tower and work for us." The expert who ranked third on the Breeze List narrowed his eyes and a wisp of light flashed in his eyes. He then smiled evilly and said, "If he doesn't want to, then we'll find a chance to show him the true strength of our Main Tower."
"I'll go." A prodigy stepped forward and said directly. He was the blade-wielding genius from the Main Tower who was defeated by Chen Zong in the flag-planting battle.
…
"I didn't expect the branch to achieve such a result this time. It's really unexpected," a high-level expert from the Main Tower said with a smile.
They had a panoramic view of the flag-planting battle in the Breeze Valley. All the changes were under their control.
Therefore, these high-level experts had also seen Chen Zong's swordsmanship and so on. That was why they were so shocked.
Although they were the high-level experts of the Main Tower, they didn't have any prejudice against the branch or the Main Tower. This was because both the Main Tower and the branch belonged to the Breeze Gang and couldn't be separated.
In fact, many of the high-level experts of the main building came from the branch building, and many of the experts in the branch building were also sent from the main building. There was no distinction between them at all.
The reason why there was such a distinction between the Third Realm prodigies was to enhance their competitive spirit. It was better to motivate each other and tap into their own potential to become stronger.
"Chen Zong, the sword cultivator, has extraordinary swordsmanship and great potential. He's a good seedling."
"A good seedling is a good seedling, but he must be able to withstand the wind and rain."
"Let's see. It's going to be more lively later." This voice had a hint of mischievousness.
…
Chen Zong didn't care about whether it was interesting or not. He went straight to the Divine Martial Jade Wall to comprehend it.
Six years wasn't a long time at all. Of course, he had to make the most of it and race against time.
The Divine Martial Jade Wall was a huge mountain wall. It was a few hundred meters in size and was as smooth and round as green jade. It stood on the ground and emitted a mysterious aura.
There were countless marks on the Divine Martial Jade Wall.
Scratches, marks, and so on.
Chen Zong stood in front of the Divine Martial Jade Wall. His eyes seemed to be glowing as he looked at it carefully.
Those scratches were filled with an indescribable sharpness. They seemed to have been left behind by a sword, but there were also some that were not left behind by a sword. For example, those scratches that seemed to be thicker and rounder were more like finger marks left behind by fingers.
In addition, those marks included palm prints, fist prints, and leg prints.
In short, these scratches and imprints were densely distributed in a crisscrossing pattern. There seemed to be no pattern at all, but no matter which scratch or imprint it was, Chen Zong could feel the mysterious aura contained within them when he stared at them, as if there was an indescribable profundity within.
Chen Zong's gaze swept across and he chose one of the scratches. Based on his senses, Chen Zong knew that it was a mark left behind by a sword.
Under the Heart Ten Essences, Chen Zong immediately comprehended the mystery contained in that sword mark.
With Chen Zong's superb comprehension, the assistance of the Heart Sutra, and his excellent swordsmanship foundation, it was not difficult for him to comprehend this sword mark. Soon, he comprehended all the mysteries contained in it and turned them into his own swordsmanship accumulation.
One!
Two!
Three!
Chen Zong continued to comprehend the sword scars on the Divine Martial Jade Disc one after another. There were hundreds and thousands of sword scars on the Divine Martial Jade Disc, and each of them contained a different mystery.
As Chen Zong continued to comprehend, his swordsmanship foundation became more and more solid. There seemed to be thousands of sword lights flashing in his eyes.
During the period of comprehension and cultivation in the Enlightenment Pagoda, the Divine Martial Jade Wall, and other places, no one was allowed to disturb them. Anyone who dared to violate the rules would be severely punished and would not be able to enter these places for a long time to comprehend.
Because of this, no one dared to violate the rules.
Chen Zong's comprehension was not disturbed. Otherwise, the geniuses from the General Building would have come to him. Now, they could only wait for Chen Zong to leave by himself.
When Chen Zong comprehended a hundred sword slashes, he felt countless inspirations emerge in his mind. It was as if countless sword lights were intertwining with each other, releasing shocking power and mysteries.
At the same time, the mysteries of the four swordsmanships, including the Heart Swordsmanship, the World Swordsmanship, the Extreme Edge Swordsmanship, and the True Gang Swordsmanship appeared again in Chen Zong's eyes. The sword lights were either unpredictable, sharp, domineering, or strong and brave.
Immediately, the sword lights changed abruptly. As the sword lights flashed, they gradually overlapped, as if two different shadows overlapped with each other. Then, they gradually synchronized.
In the end, only two different sword lights were left.
One was unpredictable and incomparably sharp, while the other was forceful and domineering, firm and brave.
Fusion!
The fusion of the Heart Swordsmanship and the Extreme Edge Swordsmanship, and the World Swordsmanship and the True Gang Swordsmanship.
No, to be precise, it was the essence of the Extreme Edge Swordsmanship that was integrated into the Heart Swordsmanship. It directly improved the Heart Swordsmanship and became more powerful. In this way, the essence of the True Gang Swordsmanship was also integrated into the World Swordsmanship, which obviously improved the power and mystery of the World Swordsmanship.
They fused and then broke through.
Chen Zong was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he carefully sensed and continued to comprehend the sword marks on the Divine Martial Jade Wall. This made the fusion of the two swordsmanships more complete, which further improved their power and made them more powerful and amazing.
Time flew. In the blink of an eye, another year had passed. During this year, Chen Zong stayed at the Divine Martial Jade Wall to comprehend the sword marks. Chen Zong had comprehended all the sword marks.
This was undoubtedly an extremely shocking comprehension speed. If word of this were to spread, it would simply be sensational.
It should be known that every mark on the Divine Martial Jade Wall contained unfathomable mysteries. It was impossible to comprehend them without sufficient comprehension ability. Moreover, it would take time.
Chen Zong was different. He had excellent comprehension ability and a solid foundation. With the help of the Heart Sutra, his comprehension efficiency increased by more than ten times, or even dozens of times. In other words, Chen Zong's comprehension of the sword marks in one year was equivalent to others' comprehension of the sword marks in dozens or even hundreds of years. Naturally, they could not be mentioned in the same breath.
