Ye Futian saw Li You's smile and said, "If I lose, I will fulfill my promise and enter Sword Mountain to learn swordsmanship."
"Yes." Li You nodded gently. "Sword Mountain is the best place for swordsmanship in Dali Dynasty. If you enter Sword Mountain to hone your swordsmanship, you don't have to go to Dali Academy like last time."
In Li You's opinion, Ye Futian was bound to lose. Although he was strong, his opponent was too famous.
The first of the younger generation of Sword Mountain.
Ye Futian nodded gently and said no more arrogant words.
If he went all out, he was confident that he could defeat anyone below the Saint Plane in Dali.
But now he could only use swordsmanship, and there were many constraints.
If he wanted to win, he had to win with his sword. If he could not win with his sword, then even if he could defeat his opponent, he would not win.
If he won with his sword, he would win. If he lost, he would lose.
If he faced an opponent like Wang Chuan, he really did not have absolute confidence that he could win with his sword.
"By the way, there is one more thing, but it has nothing to do with you. Would you be interested in hearing it?" Li You smiled.
"Please go ahead, Princess." Ye Futian nodded.
"This time not only Jian Wu came to Dali Imperial City, but also Di Hao of Daoli Mountain," said Li You.
"Di Hao?" Ye Futian was puzzled.
He knew of Daoli Mountain. According to the records, it was founded by King Tiandao, who was in charge of the Western Army.
"There are three strongest holy lands for cultivation in Dali Dynasty today: Dali Academy, Daoli Mountain, and Sword Mountain," said Li You slowly. Li You said slowly, "Although Dali Imperial City is not ranked, in the eyes of the people of the dynasty, of the three strongest holy lands, Dali Academy, which was founded by the Imperial Advisor in the center of Dali, is considered the number one holy land for cultivation because it has the full support of His Majesty and is located in Dali Imperial City."
"The second is Daoli Mountain. King Tiandao has been in charge of the Western Region of the Dali Dynasty for many years, and the army of the Western Region has deterred the Western Region. In the Western Region, King Tiandao's Mansion is the place of supreme power, and many clans and sects have to bow down to him. Under such a background, King Tiandao commanded the forces of the Western Region, recruited geniuses of the Western Region, and founded Daoli Mountain. All the disciples of Daoli Mountain have to train in the Killing Field. Thus, Daoli Mountain is the well-deserved number one holy land for cultivation in the Western Region, and Daoli Mountain ranks second."
"Third is the holy land of sword cultivation, Sword Mountain."
"Di Hao comes from Daoli Mountain, and King Tiandao has adopted him as his son. Many people see him as the future king of the west. Although he has never set foot in Dali Imperial City, and even the great figures in Dali Imperial City do not know much about his actual strength, many people in the outside world are speculating that Di Hao may very well be the number one figure below the Saint Plane in Dali Dynasty."
"None of the students of Dali Academy are confident of defeating him?" Ye Futian asked curiously.
"Dong Chen, a student of Dali Academy, is naturally very strong. Now that the Imperial Advisor is going to take another disciple, Dong Chen is the most popular. Most people think that it will be him, which shows how strong Dong Chen is. However, King Tiandao is extremely conceited and a very proud man. Since he has allowed Di Hao to enter Dali Imperial City at this time, it is very likely that he has come because of the Imperial Advisor's recruitment of disciples.
You can see how much he trusts Di Hao, "Li You said." Therefore, there are voices that call Di Hao the number one figure below the Saint Plane in Dali Dynasty. Of course, some people think that it is Dong Chen, but there is no doubt that these two, together with Jian Wu, are the three strongest figures below the Saint Plane in Dali Dynasty, and also the three most famous figures. They will appear together in Dali Imperial City. "
"But …" Li You looked at Ye Futian and smiled. "If you can defeat Jian Wu, Seventh Swordsman, you can also enter the top three."
Of course, she was just being polite. In fact, she did not think that Ye Futian could push out Jian Wu.
Ye Futian smiled and said nothing. Li You said goodbye and said, "I will go back first. If there is any news, I will let you know."
"The Princess can just send someone to tell me," said Ye Futian.
"Well, maybe the people from Sword Mountain will come directly to visit," said Li You with a nod. She could not come here often.
After Li You left, Ye Futian continued to cultivate, doing his best to integrate his ability into his swordsmanship. He supplemented it with the Taixuan Sword Scripture and tempered his sword.
Next, he might face very strong opponents, and they were not the same as those in the Lower Worlds.
Jian Wu of Sword Mountain was one of the top three figures below the Saint Plane in Dali Dynasty.
…
The people of Daoli Mountain and Sword Mountain had arrived in Dali Imperial City. This was the absolute center of Dali Dynasty, and for a while, it was quite shocking.
Everyone was waiting for news.
They did not have to wait for long. Soon, the people of Daoli Mountain went to visit Dali Academy. They agreed to go to Dali Academy in seven days to ask for the Path.
Daoli Mountain was going to fight with Dali Academy head-on.
Like Ye Futian, asking for the Path was naturally to sound good, but it was also a challenge.
The two strongest holy lands of Dali Dynasty were going to fight head-on. It was obvious that this was a challenge from King Tiandao to the authority of the Imperial Advisor. He wanted to prove that the disciples of Daoli Mountain that he had founded were stronger than those of Dali Academy.
This time, Di Hao came. Countless people were looking forward to seeing the confrontation between Di Hao and Dong Chen.
Many people were thinking, if Di Hao defeated Dong Chen in this battle, what would happen?
Would the authority of the Imperial Advisor be challenged?
Just as some people were worried about the Imperial Advisor, news came from the Imperial Advisor's Residence.
In seven days, the Imperial Advisor would come to Dali Academy in person and invite many top figures of Dali Imperial City to watch and discuss the Path together. Even Sword Mountain was invited.
Moreover, the Imperial Advisor would choose a disciple on this day.
As soon as the news came out, Dali Imperial City was instantly in an uproar.
This was the Imperial Advisor's bearing. Just as many people were worried about the Imperial Advisor and feared that Dali Academy would be defeated, the Imperial Advisor would come to the scene to watch and accept a disciple on that day.
Whether he won or lost, this bearing alone was enough to leave countless people in the dust.
The next day, Sword Mountain also released news that Jian Wu of Sword Mountain would also invite someone to go to Dali Academy to discuss the Path that day.
The swordsman, the Seventh Swordsman.
Suddenly, the name of the Seventh Swordsman resounded throughout Dali Imperial City.
The strongest disciple of the younger generation of Sword Mountain, Jian Wu, would challenge the Seventh Swordsman.
The time would be the day that Dali Academy and Daoli Mountain would discuss the Path.
The location would be Dali Academy.
This news came wave after wave, and it really shocked the people of Dali Imperial City. At the same time, they were full of anticipation for the discussion that would take place in a few days.
Not only would Dali Academy and Daoli Mountain participate, but Sword Mountain would also enter on that day to fight the Seventh Swordsman, the number one genius of the Lower Worlds.
The three strongest holy lands of Dali Dynasty would all come together, and the three strongest people of Dali Dynasty below the Saint Plane would also be gathered together.
On this day, in the courtyard where Ye Futian lived, he was still practicing swordsmanship.
At this time, he suddenly noticed something. He opened his eyes and looked up into the void in the distance. He saw a group of swordsmen coming on their swords and appearing outside the courtyard.
"The swordsmen of Sword Mountain have come to visit," a voice came from outside.
"Please," Ye Futian said.
As his voice fell, suddenly the group of swordsmen came in on their swords and landed in the courtyard. They looked at Ye Futian, who was sitting there cultivating.
"In the name of the Shadow Sword Saint, we have come to send a message. In five days, Sword Mountain will be waiting at Dali Academy to fulfill the promise," the other said. Ye Futian already knew from Li You that Jian Wu had arrived, so he naturally understood what the other meant by "fulfill the promise," but he was a little surprised by the location. It was actually at Dali Academy.
"Very well, please tell the Shadow Bearing Sword Saint that the Seventh Swordsman will come on time," Ye Futian responded.
"Very well, farewell." The other nodded, and then the group of swordsmen broke through the air and instantly disappeared from the courtyard.
Not long after they left, Li You arrived and told him what had happened outside.
This made Ye Futian very much look forward to the trip to Dali Academy in five days.
Would the three strongest people of Dali Dynasty below the Saint Plane be gathered together?
…
Under the anticipation of countless cultivators of Dali Imperial City, a few days finally passed.
On this day, outside of Dali Academy, there was a continuous stream of figures descending from the sky. Some came on swords, and some came in carriages.
Some of the figures came down from the carriages, and their temperaments were extraordinary.
"Many people of the Sovereign Family have come." Many people were shocked.
It seemed that the Sovereign Family attached great importance to this sparring session.
Above the sky, there was the sound of a dragon's roar. The divine golden dragon pulled the carriage, and on the carriage, several figures dressed in golden robes stepped out. When they saw them appear, many people gasped.
Not only the people of the Sovereign Family had come, but even the Prince of Dali Dynasty had come to Dali Academy.
If Ye Futian had been there, he would have been able to see that one of the figures coming out of the carriage was the reason why he had come to Dali Dynasty.
The Prince of Dali Imperial City, Li Yao.
The golden dragon descended outside Dali Academy, and the carriage landed. The Prince got out of the carriage and walked into the academy. No one came out to greet him.
The Imperial Advisor of Dali had founded Dali Academy and named it after it. He wanted to cultivate the true pillars of Dali. At the beginning, Emperor Li had ordered people to cast a statue outside Dali Academy, the statue of the Imperial Advisor, to show the Imperial Advisor's status.
However, when the Imperial Advisor learned of this, he personally asked for the statue to be removed. Emperor Li agreed, and the Imperial Advisor destroyed the statue himself. He also announced that Dali Academy did not promote the worship of individuals, but was a holy place to cultivate the cultivators of Dali. There were no nobles here, and everyone who entered Dali Academy was equal.
However, after that day, the people of Dali respected the Imperial Advisor even more, but they did not take it to heart.
After this, Emperor Li personally ordered that anyone who entered Dali Academy had to get out of the carriage. They were not allowed to enter in the air, even the Princes and Princesses.
After that, Emperor Li also allowed the Princes and Princesses to enter Dali Academy to cultivate.
Therefore, when Li Yao and the others arrived, even though they were Princes, they had to get out of the carriage and walk into Dali Academy. Moreover, no one came out to greet them.
This was Dali Academy, the number one holy place for cultivation in Dali Dynasty.
But today, Daoli Mountain had come to Dali Academy to seek the Path!
