"Mountain-splitting Saber Technique!"
"Thunder-piercing Saber Technique!"
"Minor Reversal Saber Technique!"
The three of them unleashed their power of Qi and blood, mercilessly using their Human-level martial arts. The Mountain-splitting Saber's radiance was so strong that it looked like a giant saber falling from the sky. Wherever the saber radiance went, people would feel like they were going to be split in half.
The blade of the Thunder-piercing Saber Technique seemed to emit a dazzling radiance, as if it carried traces of electricity. It made a buzzing sound that made people's scalp tingle. It pierced through the air and stabbed toward Chen Zong.
Under the Minor Reversal Saber Technique, Xiao Wei's two sabers intertwined in a disorderly manner. It looked like they were going up and down, to the left and right. It was so dazzling that it was impossible to distinguish between the real and the fake. The saber was extremely fast, bringing along gusts of wind as it cut madly, trying to mince people into pieces.
Xiao Wei had once used this move to cut a leaf into ten pieces of the same size.
The three sabers attacked from three sides, sealing off the surroundings, making it impossible for Chen Zong to dodge.
The sword flashed and the starlight seemed to appear from the void, descending into the world.
The Lone Star Technique!
The Lone Star Technique of the Minor Completion Realm was born. The stars gradually became brighter and collided with the Thunder-piercing Saber Technique, canceling each other out. Chen Zong swung his sword again. The sword radiance slashed diagonally, knocking away the long saber. He performed the Minor Dragon-subduing Hand and pressed it hard on Meng Yuanchong's chest.
With a bang, Meng Yuanchong was sent flying backward. His face was pale, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
He performed the Wind Stepping Steps and rushed toward Meng Yuanchong as if he was blown by the wind, causing Huang Biao and Xiao Wei's saber radiance to miss.
Meng Yuanchong quickly got up after rolling once. He was furious. He roared and swung his saber again, trying to kill Chen Zong.
"The Lone Star Technique of the Minor Completion Realm!" Chen Chuyun's eyes flashed with joy. Bai Yushan's eyes were full of haze.
With a strike, the Lone Star Technique appeared again. Meng Yuanchong was sent flying backward, his long saber falling to the side.
Without Meng Yuanchong's attack, Xiao Wei and Huang Biao couldn't do anything to Chen Zong.
Dodge! Dodge! Dodge!
"The incense stick's time is up," Li Zhenshi shouted loudly. Everyone looked over and sure enough, the incense stick's time was up.
"Stop!" Xu Zhan Tian shouted. Huang Biao and Xiao Wei had no choice but to stop, but their eyes were red. They wanted nothing more than to skin Chen Zong alive.
Chen Zong's gaze swept over Xu Zhan Tian, Bai Yushan, and Xiao Hongfu as he spoke in a neither fast nor slow manner.
"You're just relying on your good movement technique to fight me head-on." Huang Biao roared again and again, but Chen Zong ignored him. Xu Zhan Tian frowned, his eyes were as cold as a knife, causing Huang Biao to involuntarily shiver, as if he was splashed with ice water.
"Trash!" Xiao Hongfu glared at Xiao Wei. "Let's go."
"Wait a minute. If I can't endure for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, then I'll be severely punished. However, I've endured it. There's no reason for me to let it go like this." Chen Zong spoke in a neither fast nor slow manner, but his tone was sharp as he looked at Bai Yushan. "Eldest Senior Brother, others slandered a disciple of the Glorious Sword Hall, causing a ruckus in public. This is equivalent to looking down on the Glorious Sword Hall, seriously damaging the Glorious Sword Hall's reputation. Do you want to uphold justice?"
"This Senior Brother of the Glorious Sword Hall, shouldn't you also uphold justice?" Chen Zong looked at the silent Glorious Sword Hall disciple.
Bai Yushan's face turned ashen as if he had swallowed a fly.
What could he say? Not upholding justice?
Then, how would the Glorious Sword Hall disciples view him?
Wouldn't his prestige in the Glorious Sword Hall be greatly reduced?
"If there's a mistake, then there's a punishment." The Glorious Sword Hall disciple looked at Bai Yushan, Xu Zhan Tian, and Xiao Hongfu as he spoke word by word, his voice cold and harsh.
"Sorry, I didn't investigate properly." Xu Zhan Tian spoke, looking at Huang Biao and Meng Yuanchong, his voice cold and harsh, "The two of you, each compensate Chen Zong fifty thousand White Jade Coins as compensation. When you return, you will be locked up in the dark room for three days."
Huang Biao and Meng Yuanchong both trembled, their faces ashen. Taking out fifty thousand White Jade Coins was like cutting off their flesh and being locked up in the dark room. Fortunately, it was only for three days, they could still endure it.
"Are you sure you dare to take it?" Xiao Hongfu stared at Chen Zong, his eyes gloomy.
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Chen Zong looked at him without fear.
"Very good, give it to him." Xiao Hongfu said to Xiao Wei.
Even if the crowd dispersed, the song did not end!
In the end, not only did the summons fail to punish Chen Zong, but it also allowed him to be in the limelight and receive a hundred and fifty thousand White Jade Coins. Those who admired Chen Zong admired Chen Zong even more, and those who hated Chen Zong even more.
Returning to the courtyard, Chen Zong was in a good mood. When he practiced his sword, his blood Qi seemed to be affected, becoming more active.
…
"Yushan, Huan Yun Swordsman's martial arts lecture is in five days. Have you prepared the name list?" The instructor of Glorious Sword Hall asked.
"Yes." Bai Yushan took out a piece of white paper with thirty names listed on it.
The instructor took the paper and glanced at it, then looked at Bai Yushan. "Why isn't Chen Zong among the ten new disciples?"
Glorious Sword Hall first knew about Chen Zong when Qin Xinxin, the instructor of Glorious Martial Hall, told him about him. After that, he paid attention to him intermittently. He did not know the details, but he vaguely knew that Chen Zong was one of the more outstanding new disciples of Glorious Sword Hall.
The Martial Arts Hall, the Martial Arts Hall, the Weapon Hall, the Sword Hall, and the Blade Hall each had 30 spots. Among them, the senior disciples had 20 spots and the new disciples had 10 spots. The tutor felt that Chen Zong should be able to get one of the 10 spots.
"Instructor, Chen Zong is indeed very capable." Bai Yushan praised him first. "But this person is arrogant and unruly. His methods are a little bad, and his temperament is not good. He even publicly contradicted Glorious Earth Hall's chief disciple, Xiao Hongfu, and Glorious Blade Hall's chief disciple, Xu Zhantian. As the chief disciple of Glorious Sword Hall, I have the responsibility to guard him well."
"In that case, the name list is set. Send someone to inform the people on the list to gather at Seven Lights Hall at nine o 'clock sharp in the morning five days later. If you miss it, you will not be able to enter." The instructor nodded. He trusted Bai Yushan very much.
"Okay." After receiving the name list, a hint of joy flashed through Bai Yushan's eyes. He turned and left.
If Chen Zong was obedient, he would definitely get one of the ten spots. Unfortunately, this person did not get along with him.
As for Chen Chu Yun, he had originally planned to exclude him, but after some thought, he could not. Chen Chu Yun had been in Glorious Sword Hall for more than a year, and he himself was very outstanding. The instructor had a certain level of understanding of him. It would not be right if he excluded him.
However, it was enough to exclude Chen Zong. After listening to Huan Yun Swordsman's lecture, he might be able to comprehend something. If he cultivated in seclusion for a while, he might even be able to enter Heavenly Illumination Hall.
The sword rose. The light was as bright as a star that stood alone in the world.
The starlight dimmed and disappeared. There was another sword hole on the wooden stake. The cut was smooth.
"The Lone Star has come into being. I've improved again." Chen Zong withdrew his sword and looked at the sword hole.
"Brother, did you receive the notice?" Chen Chu Yun stepped into the small courtyard and asked directly.
"What notice?" Chen Zong was confused.
"Five days later, there will be a True Martial Realm expert, Huan Yun Swordsman, giving a public lecture in Seven Lights Hall. Each hall has a quota limit. Our Glorious Sword Hall has thirty spots. The senior disciples are divided into twenty, and the new disciples are divided into ten. We will choose the best. You are unmatched among the new disciples." Chen Chu Yun explained simply.
"True Martial Realm expert!"
"Huan Yun Swordsman!"
"Martial arts lecture!"
Chen Zong couldn't help but gasp. He suddenly recalled the intermittent conversations he overheard when he returned to Glorious Sword Hall two days ago. It seemed to be related to this event.
A True Martial Realm expert giving a martial arts lecture was a big deal.
Even Training Force Realm martial artists would scramble to attend. One must know that those who could cultivate to the True Martial Realm had an extremely deep accumulation of martial arts. Their understanding of martial arts and martial arts was also very deep and unique. Usually, a single sentence from them could allow one to comprehend a lot.
Especially when this True Martial Realm expert who was going to give a martial arts lecture was Huan Yun Swordsman. It was obvious that he was a swordsman. For a swordsman, the effect was even more obvious.
If he could listen to a martial arts lecture, it might be of great help to him.
"Sister, I didn't receive the notice." Chen Zong said honestly.
"It seems that Bai Yushan didn't give you a spot." Chen Chu Yun frowned.
"It would be strange if he gave me a spot." Chen Zong shook his head. Although he and Bai Yushan had yet to shed all pretenses of cordiality, they were already halfway there. Bai Yushan must surely hate him right now. How could he possibly give such a slot to him? "Sister Yun, go and listen. Come back and tell me more."
"That's the only way." Chen Chu Yun nodded. Although he wanted to fight for the spot, Bai Yushan wouldn't agree. It would be useless unless he sided with Bai Yushan, but that was impossible.
Thinking about it, Chen Zong was actually very unwilling.
A True Martial Realm expert giving a martial arts lecture, and a swordsman at that, such an opportunity was very rare. If he missed it, he couldn't help but have an even bigger opinion of Bai Yushan.
"Forget it, I can't side with Bai Yushan." Chen Zong shook his head and dispelled the unwillingness in his heart. He pulled out his sword and began to cultivate again.
However, his swordsmanship wasn't as smooth as before. Chen Zong knew that even if he said he didn't care, he would still be somewhat affected. He simply stopped cultivating and took out the Small Sword Scripture to read carefully.
He didn't know how many times he had flipped through the Small Sword Scripture. Every word was engraved in his heart. But when he held the book and read it, it felt wonderful.
Gradually, Chen Zong's heart truly calmed down. That last trace of unwillingness also vanished like smoke into thin air.
The Blood Essence Elixir Wine was still brewing. It was placed in the corner of the bedroom. Chen Zong resumed his daily routine.
He practiced swordsmanship, True Sword Heavenly Supreme Skill, Body Forging Technique, and so on.
His swordsmanship had slight improvements every day. It was great. However, the improvement of his cultivation base was very slow, even with the help of the Scarlet Blood Pill. The difference between the seventh and eighth level of the Qi and Blood realm was very obvious.
From the seventh level to the eighth level was the transition from the Minor Circulatory Cycle to the Major Circulatory Cycle. It required a gradual process. Even with the help of external forces, it couldn't be done overnight.
Chen Zongneng's progress in the first layer of the Body Tempering Technique was also not bad. He could feel that his skin had become more resilient and elastic. Following that, his physique had also become slightly stronger. His stamina and endurance had also increased.
Time flew. In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
In the morning, Chen Zong finished his swordsmanship practice. He raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun was shining brightly. It was about eight or nine o 'clock.
"The True Martial Realm swordsman's lecture should be starting soon. I really want to go and listen." Chen Zong couldn't help but think of this. His heart was filled with desire.
Unfortunately, he was only a small disciple in the Glorious Sword Hall. He didn't have much status or power.
