The sky was clear and white, and the wind was blowing gently.
Han Yunfei walked down from the eighteenth floor of the Mountaineering List as fast as the wind.
There were ninety-nine floors on the Mountaineering List. The highest was the first floor, and the lowest was the 99th floor. Chen Zong was ranked 89th, so he lived on the 89th floor.
"What a lucky boy." Han Yunfei arrived at the 89th floor and walked toward Chen Zong's cave residence while muttering to himself. He was the first disciple of Vice Dean Li Tengkong, and he came to find Chen Zong on Li Tengkong's order.
Soon, Han Yunfei saw Chen Zong practicing swordsmanship on the roof.
"Chen Shidi, let's have a few moves." Han Yunfei jumped up as if he was riding the wind. He turned his body in the air, and his feet touched the ground lightly. He flew toward Chen Zong like a dragonfly skimming the water.
He waved his right hand, and the bright sword light like the rising sun slashed toward Chen Zong. The sword light was fleeting, like a bird flying up, down, left, and right, and its trajectory was unpredictable.
There was no killing intent in this move, and it didn't use much strength, but it contained profound skills.
Chen Zong turned around and fixed his eyes on the fleeting sword light. He raised his sword and slashed it down.
In Han Yunfei's eyes, Chen Zong's sword seemed to have cut the world in half. No matter how fleeting his sword was, it couldn't get away from the attack of Chen Zong's sword. It blocked all changes.
Adapt to all changes!
"Good." Instead of being surprised, Han Yunfei was happy. He shook his arm and his long sword. The sword light poured down like a rainstorm, breaking the blockade of Chen Zong's sword and covering it directly.
"Break!"
With a low chant, Chen Zong's vertical sword suddenly turned into a stab, and he tapped the void continuously. Every move was an ordinary move, but they all contained the mystery of the Wind-cutting Swordsmanship.
Han Yunfei landed on the roof. He tapped the ground lightly with the tip of his foot, and was as swift and flexible as water skiing.
His body moved with the sword!
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged dozens of moves.
"Hahahaha, Chen Shidi, your swordsmanship is indeed superb." After dodging Chen Zong's sword, Han Yunfei lightly retreated and sheathed his sword. He laughed loudly and said, "My name is Han Yunfei. I've come to find you on my master's order."
"Senior Martial Brother Han's Master is?" Chen Zong asked.
"Vice President Li." Han Yunfei said in a clear voice, "You are very lucky. Marquis of Linshan has returned. My master told the marquis about you. After the marquis heard about it, he was very interested in you and specially summoned you."
"Lord Marquis of Linshan summoned me …" Chen Zong revealed a look of joy when he heard this.
The reason why he chose Overlook Mountain Courtyard instead of Proud Sword Manor was because of Overlook Mountain Marquis, the number one expert of Overlook Mountain County.
Now that he had killed a few disciples of the Silver Saber Castle, the grudge between him and the Silver Saber Castle had deepened. However, it was not easy to increase his cultivation and strength, especially to the extent that he could fight against the Silver Saber Castle.
He did not want to run away again like before. He could only find a backer before he became strong enough. This backer had to be strong enough. In Overlook Mountain County, Marquis of Linshan was undoubtedly the best candidate.
"Thank you for telling me, Senior Martial Brother Han. I will leave now." Chen Zong said. He directly put on his two swords and tidied up his appearance. He looked clean and tidy.
"Let's go." Han Yunfei smiled.
"Chen Shidi, you are going to strike it rich." On the way, Han Yunfei laughed. His words made Chen Zong feel that it was interesting. "In the entire Overlook Mountain Courtyard, other than the mentors and the vice president, even the teachers rarely get to see Lord Marquis of Linshan."
"Senior Martial Brother Han, can't all disciples on the Mountain Ascension List be summoned by Lord Marquis of Linshan?" Chen Zong asked. At least, that was what he thought.
"Haha, of course not. Lord Marquis of Linshan is in charge of the entire Overlook Mountain County. How can he have so much time?" Han Yunfei laughed. "The disciples on the Mountain Ascension List are mainly paid attention to by the two vice presidents. When there are better seedlings, they will report to Lord Marquis of Linshan. Lord Marquis of Linshan will then decide whether to summon them."
"Do you know how many of the ninety-nine disciples on the Mountain Ascension List have been summoned by Lord Marquis of Linshan?" Han Yunfei asked. He did not wait for Chen Zong to answer and said, "There are only four in total. Including you, you are the fifth."
Chen Zong was surprised. Before him, there were only four. His luck was not bad.
Han Yunfei was a little talkative. Along the way, he talked non-stop. However, his words were interesting. Moreover, Chen Zong did not know what he was talking about. Therefore, Chen Zong did not feel annoyed. On the contrary, he listened with great interest.
Unknowingly, Han Yunfei led Chen Zong to the depths of Overlook Mountain Courtyard. In front of a simple courtyard.
"Mountain View Residence!" Chen Zong raised his head slightly and looked at the three words on the plaque of the closed door. The words were like flying dragons and dancing phoenixes. They seemed to contain some inexplicable truth. He could not understand them clearly.
"Those words were carved by Lord Marquis himself with a sword." Han Yunfei laughed. "It is said that it contains Lord Marquis's understanding of swordsmanship. If you can understand it, it will be good for practicing swordsmanship. However, I have seen it many times and have not understood anything."
Chen Zong looked at it carefully for a while, but did not understand anything.
"Chen Shidi, I can only send you here." Han Yunfei patted Chen Zong's shoulder and laughed. Then he turned and left.
He could not enter without Lord Marquis's summon.
After taking a deep breath and tidying up his clothes again, Chen Zong strode to the closed door and knocked.
After a few breaths.
"Who is it?" A voice came. It was a young woman with a threatening heroic spirit. Chen Zong thought for a moment and knew who it was.
The candidate, Guan Yunxi!
The door opened. A pretty face that was not inferior to a man's appeared in front of him.
"It's you!" Guan Yunxi saw Chen Zong and was stunned at first. Then she frowned and her pretty face was full of anger. Her eyes shone with a fierce light. She said in a cold voice, "I have warned you not to appear in front of me again."
As soon as she finished speaking, Guan Yunxi slapped at Chen Zong's face. Her internal force was restrained, and her palm could break a stone.
Chen Zong moved his body and avoided Guan Yunxi's palm. He said, "Lord Marquis wants to see me."
Guan Yunxi ignored him and attacked again. Palm after palm, the wind from his palm whistled and palm prints flew out like a torrential downpour.
Chen Zong walked calmly and skillfully, as if he was strolling among flowers. Guan Yunxi's every palm hit nothing.
Then he walked past Guan Yunxi with delicate steps and entered the Mountain View Residence.
Guan Yunxi's pretty face was red. She was enraged. She touched her waist with her right hand and the scarlet shadow appeared again. It was like a spiritual snake or a sharp sword piercing through the air. It hit Chen Zong's back hard.
Unexpectedly, it missed again.
Guan Yunxi attacked again and again. The shadow of the whip danced and covered the whole yard.
Two beams of sword light flashed across the sky like lightning, shattering the shadows of the whips. Chen Zong broke out of the shadows and was met with another scarlet shadow. It was as if lightning had split the sky.
"Cut!"
Things were different now. Chen Zong slashed apart the whip shadow with his sword and turned around to attack Guan Yunxi.
"Long Xin!"
The scarlet long whip shook, as if it had transformed into a flying dragon, descending from the sky. As the tip of the whip stretched back and forth, there was a tyrannical inner strength that was fluctuating.
"Long Tie!"
The second move followed. The scarlet shadow circled around Chen Zong like a dragon, trying to tie him up.
The two moves came one after the other.
"Long Wu!"
Guan Yunxi used the third move.
The three moves completely surrounded Chen Zong. There was no way for him to dodge.
The two swords crossed and the dazzling light of the cross cut through the air.
Space Splitting Cross Cut!
Under the sharp light of the cross, the air was cut open and a deep cross mark was left. It shattered Guan Yunxi's three moves.
Mountain-Splitting Sword Qi!
Thunderous Sword Qi!
Two streaks of Sword Qi pierced through the air as if they were the vanguard. Chen Zong followed closely behind. His two swords attacked Guan Yunxi from the left and right.
Guan Yunxi's face changed. She was shocked.
Not long ago, Chen Zong could only dodge and retreat pathetically under his long whip. At that time, he had only used an ordinary whip technique. Now, under his powerful whip technique, Chen Zong was actually able to resist him.
Was he hiding his strength last time?
It didn't seem necessary.
How could he improve his combat strength so much in such a short time?
It was too shocking.
Chen Zong didn't know the shock in Guan Yunxi's heart. His long sword came and the two swords poured down like a storm.
Guan Yunxi activated all her inner force. Her long hair fluttered and she looked valiant. She was like a female warrior on the battlefield. Her long whip was like a knife or a sword, piercing through the air like a spear.
After all, this was the Mountain View Residence, the place of the Marquis of Linshan. Guan Yunxi was the daughter of the Marquis of Linshan. Chen Zong couldn't and didn't dare to kill or injure Guan Yunxi. However, Guan Yunxi's combat strength wasn't weak. With her full strength, besides the Spiritual Sword, Chen Zong also had to deal with it.
Sword light flashed!
The shadow of the whip was chaotic!
Chen Zong and Guan Yunxi were fighting fiercely. However, they didn't know that two pairs of eyes were staring at them and nodding secretly.
"Marquis, this Chen Zong can actually fight Miss Yunxi to a draw. It's really surprising. It's hard to imagine that his cultivation is only at the middle stage of the eighth transformation of the Qi Refining realm."
"Yunxi's combat strength is at the middle stage of the three-star level. If she uses a secret technique, she can reach the late stage of the three-star level." The Marquis of Linshan smiled and said, "However, this Chen Zong didn't use his full strength."
The Mountaineering Ranking was a list that measured the combat strength of the disciples of the Linshan Courtyard. It was mostly accurate, but not absolute.
Some people only used their own strength when fighting for a place on the Mountaineering Ranking and didn't use a secret technique to increase their combat strength. However, some people increased their combat strength.
For example, Chen Zong was ranked 89th. However, his combat strength was at the three-star level. If he challenged, his ranking would rise a lot.
Guan Yunxi was at the middle stage of the three-star level. However, if she used a secret technique, her combat strength could reach the late stage of the three-star level.
"Marquis, are you satisfied with this Chen Zong?"
"He's alright." The Marquis of Linshan smiled and stared at him.
The battle between Chen Zong and Guan Yunxi became more and more intense. However, neither of them had any killing intent.
Guan Yunxi's goal was to teach Chen Zong a lesson and avenge her friend. As for Chen Zong, he didn't want to be taught a lesson.
Of course, if Guan Yunxi wasn't the daughter of the Marquis of Linshan, Chen Zong wouldn't have held back.
Sword light flashed, and the ground was split open by the sword pressure. The long whip pierced through the air and also cracked the ground.
The energy overflowed, and the stone tables and chairs in the distance cracked and shattered.
"Alright, alright, both of you stop. If you continue fighting, the Mountain View Residence will be torn apart by the two of you." A gentle voice sounded with a hint of ridicule.
Tearing down the Mountain View Residence was an exaggeration.
Chen Zong quickly withdrew his sword. Guan Yunxi also stopped.
