With the semi-finals over, the participants, regardless of whether they succeeded or failed, returned to their own residences.
As for the people, no matter how indignant they were, they could not change the outcome of the competition, so they could only disperse.
But the battles did not stop.
After Yi Yun finished his dinner, he walked out of the Tao tribal clan's dining hall. He met a group of children waiting for him.
The leader was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. She was followed by a group of younger brothers and sisters, all of whom looked to be in their teens.
The girl was their boss, and she was similar to Yi Yun's impression of the school's big sister.
It seemed that the children of this world were in their teens, when they were in their rebellious phase. Children at this age would easily form gangs, such as the Green Gang, Hong Gang, Youth Club, etc.
The girl coolly flipped her hair and stared at Yi Yun. She did not say a word, but her eyes were filled with hostility.
They had come to demonstrate.
In fact, in the girl's eyes, Yi Yun was the same age as them, and had the same level of intelligence.
Ignoring everything else, just in terms of height, the twelve-year-old Yi Yun was shorter than the girl by an inch.
Children did not know about things like Purple Air Comes From The East or the manifestation of Yuan Qi. Their more intuitive understanding of strength was their height.
Those who were tall and strong looked powerful, so no one dared to provoke them.
And those who were short were less intimidating, so they were easy to bully.
The few girls leading the way knew that Yi Yun was very strong, and the people they brought were definitely no match for him. But … Yi Yun's shorter stature gave them an invisible psychological advantage. In the past, they often teamed up to bully the weak.
It was hard to describe the children's mentality. They felt that their idol had been insulted, so they had to do something to show their courage.
Although the person who had really "insulted" their idol was the Jin Long Wei. But they did not have the courage to block the Jin Long Wei, so they could only block Yi Yun.
They only wanted to make a gesture to prove that they supported Hu Ya. As for the outcome, they did not know.
Yi Yun was speechless. He felt like he had been f * cked by a group of children who did not know anything.
Yi Yun released a little of his aura and pushed the children away. He strode out of the crowd. Leaving the children behind, who were angry but did not dare say a word.
In fact, ever since the end of the semi-finals, Yi Yun had noticed that he often received hostile looks from the Tao tribal clan.
Yi Yun alone had suppressed the three young masters of the Tao tribal clan. It was equivalent to smacking their faces, so how could the people of the Lian tribal clan be friendly to him?
Besides, Yi Yun did not reveal his true strength from the beginning to the end. All the results were decided by the Jin Long Wei, the people from the Tao tribal clan. He was not convinced by the Jin Long Wei's evaluation.
Yi Yun did not want to bother with these people. He only wanted to leave the crowd. At this moment. Yi Yun suddenly noticed that not far away, there was a beautiful figure dressed in white. He looked at her with a smile.
Under the setting sun, the girl's shadow was dragged out. Her dress was also plated with a layer of faint golden light. That layer of faint light gently pulsated, like a fairy dancing in the sunset.
The girl only smiled and did not say a word. When she saw Yi Yun look over, she turned and left.
As for Yi Yun, he tacitly followed.
The two of them proceeded forward and soon disappeared from the Tao tribal clan's city.
The scenery changed. Yi Yun and the girl came to the back mountains of the Tao tribal clan. At this time, the sun had just set. The afterglow filled the sky, burning the sunset in the west.
"You seem to be very unpopular …"
Lin Xintong said leisurely as she turned around to look at Yi Yun.
Yi Yun smiled helplessly, "I came to the Tao tribal clan to steal their limelight. Of course they don't welcome me, and … they're not convinced."
"The Jin Long Wei's evaluation is considered authoritative. You don't have to care about those people … Well … we previously agreed to continue sparring with you today." Lin Xintong had agreed to continue sparring with Yi Yun last night.
"Alright!"
Yi Yun could not ask for more. Lin Xintong was a master. Yi Yun did not know what realm Lin Xintong was in, but he knew that just a simple demonstration from her would benefit him greatly.
Lin Xintong gently swiped her interspatial wristband and pulled out a sword.
Sword!?
Yi Yun's eyes lit up. This was the first time he had seen Lin Xintong use a weapon.
In the past, when he sparred with Lin Xintong, Lin Xintong had always used her palm to spar with Yi Yun.
"Tao Yunxiao and Hu Ya both use swords. The swords they use are the ancestral artifacts of the Tao tribal clan. But I feel that the quality of those two swords is not as good as the one in Lin Xintong's hand!"
Lin Xintong's sword was extremely soft. It was like a slithering silver snake. The cold beam seemed to pierce into Yi Yun's eyebrows even though it was far away, making him feel a chill.
"The sword's name is Frost Water. This is my sword. I usually use a sword to fight with my enemies. I have a special talent for swords. This talent is called 'Heart of the Sword'."
"Heart of the Sword is a kind of bloodline talent. Not everyone can awaken a bloodline talent. Maybe in the future, you will have your own bloodline talent."
Lin Xintong's words had opened a new door for Yi Yun.
Bloodline talent? Heart of the Sword?
Yi Yun did not know what bloodline talent was, but he had a strong interest in it.
Lin Xintong said, "You just need to focus on breaking through to the Purple Blood realm. You don't need to care about bloodline talent for now. It is still a domain you cannot touch …"
As Lin Xintong spoke, she waved her sword, "A weapon is a part of a warrior's body. Warriors who first come into contact with the way of the sword will use their bodies to control their swords. Going one step further, they will use their Qi to control their swords. The third step, use your heart to control the sword! "
"Watch carefully today. This is the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven'!"
As Lin Xintong said that, the sword in her hand moved. Her speed was not fast, but every move and stance used the power of the Heaven and Earth. Her movements were perfectly linked.
Lin Xintong's swordplay. It was the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven'!
Yi Yun was shocked. He had never seen a cultivation technique that Lin Xintong did not know.
Lin Xintong knew the 'Dragon Rib Tiger Bone Fist'. She also knew the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven', but these two cultivation techniques were not Lin Xintong's main cultivation techniques. Her main cultivation technique was called the 'Fairy Maiden Heart Sutra'!
But even though she only cultivated the 'Dragon Rib Tiger Bone Fist' and the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven', she had mastered them to an extremely high level!
In terms of the 'Dragon Rib Tiger Bone Fist', Lin Xintong's annotations had benefited him greatly.
In terms of the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven', her sword moves were perfect. Even Yi Yun, who did not know much about swords, could feel the mystery within.
Especially with the vision given to Yi Yun by the Purple Crystal Origins, Yi Yun could see the surrounding Heaven Earth Yuan Qi gathering towards Lin Xintong, forming countless points of light.
"Whew! Whew! Whew! "
Nine golden sword beams flew out from Lin Xintong's body. This was the manifestation of Yuan Qi that Hu Ya had previously used!
But Hu Ya's manifestation of Yuan Qi only appeared for a moment before it shot into the sky.
As for Lin Xintong's manifestation of Yuan Qi, the nine tiny golden swords were like fairies, revolving around Lin Xintong's sword beams.
When Lin Xintong stabbed with her sword, the tiny golden swords flew out. When she retracted her sword, the tiny golden swords followed suit.
This technique made Yi Yun gasp in amazement.
On careful thought. Lin Xintong was younger than Hu Ya by a year. It was hard to imagine what level of talent Lin Xintong had.
"I'm really a frog in a well."
Yi Yun muttered to himself. He had first gained insight into 'cultivation techniques have limits. There are no limits to martial arts' and 'Purple Air Comes From The East'. These two achievements made Yi Yun feel a little proud.
But compared to Lin Xintong, it was nothing.
"Cultivation techniques have limits. Lin Xintong must have long reached the realm of 'there are no limits to martial arts', or why would she comment in such a tone. Mentioned in the notes?
Lin Xintong had casually studied a cultivation technique for half a year, and had reached such a level. He still had a long way to go!
Yi Yun watched as Lin Xintong danced with her sword.
Both were using the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven', but Hu Ya's' Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven 'was far inferior to Lin Xintong's. As for Tao Yunxiao's, it was even more unsightly.
Having lived two lives, Yi Yun had a strong soul and high perceptivity. Although Lin Xintong did not say a word and only danced with her sword, compared to Lin Xintong's swordsmanship, Yi Yun recalled Tao Yunxiao's swordsmanship, and the various flaws appeared in Yi Yun's mind.
"This set of 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven' and the Tao tribal clan's ancestral artifact were useless in Tao Yunxiao's hands. If the way of the sword is split into several realms, then Tao Yunxiao should be at the realm of using his body to control the sword. That's just the beginning of the way of the sword …"
Yi Yun commented in his heart. With such a gem in front of him, Yi Yun could already evaluate Tao Yunxiao's swordsmanship.
In terms of martial arts, Yi Yun was naturally inferior to Lin Xintong.
Yi Yun could not even understand 10% of Lin Xintong's swordsmanship. But this 10% was enough for Yi Yun to have his own understanding of the 'Nine Mysterious Swords of Heaven'.
Many things could only be understood but not explained. Everyone's understanding was different, so Lin Xintong did not say much and only demonstrated.
Now, these insights had taken root in Yi Yun's heart. With the increase in his strength, there would come a day when it would grow into a towering tree!
A warrior's practice of martial arts was greatly influenced by the environment.
Often sparring with experts, even if one was beaten senseless by an expert, after being beaten senseless for a long time, one would still be considered half an expert.
But often sparring with idiots, even if one could beat those idiots to death, one would still be an idiot even after a few years of fighting.
Yi Yun and Lin Xintong practiced until it was almost daybreak before they stopped.
Lin Xintong floated away, and Yi Yun quietly returned to the Tao tribal clan.
In a few hours, it would be the final round of the Kingdom's selection, which was also the moment of the finals.
This battle would determine the final results.
"I wonder what the final round's test will be?"
With this thought in mind, Yi Yun was filled with anticipation!
After meditating for an hour, he fell into bed and fell into a deep sleep.
He fell into a deep sleep. As long as he slept for two to four hours, his spirit would be restored to its peak state … (To be continued …)
