"This year's semester examination" Hundred Flowers Fairy pulled the topic back, "the goal is to pick out the most suitable seeds from the loose cultivators and martial artists, then accept them into the sects, using the best resources and scriptures to raise them faster"
"After the semester examination, all cultivators above a certain realm will participate in a great counterattack, hopefully we'll be able to win the war" Bai Hua Fairy said.
"Qing Shan, Xiu Xiu"
"Here"
"Here"
"You've already been accepted into my sect, so you don't need to go through the semester examination, but this is a thousand-year tradition related to the Heavenly God, so you still have to go"
Hundred Flowers Fairy looked at the two of them.
Gu Qing Shan seems to be thinking about something, sighed, but her expression was still calm.
Xiu Xiu was already nervous, her hands were clenched together, biting her lip, her body tense.
Hundred Flowers Fairy smiled at Xiu Xiu: "It's ok, I'm just going to see the world, this is just a formality. Qing Shan, take care of Xiu Xiu, we'll leave tomorrow"
"Yes"
"Yes"
The two of them answered at the same time.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at the War God UI.
The hourglass that represents the amount of time it's stopped has only fallen by 30%.
After the banquet, after helping Qin Xiaolou clean up, Gu Qing Shan once again came to the empty space in front of the palace.
He drew the Earth Sword and began to practice his swordsmanship again.
His sword was like a dragon, dancing around on the ground, occasionally giving off blue sparks.
Gu Qing Shan was sweating profusely as he practiced, using every second to increase his strength.
In the past life, he didn't awaken his Lightning elemental root, so he has no experience with this.
This is a type of spirit energy that he's never come into contact with before, even with his abilities, he has to seriously explore it to find the best way to use it.
One strike after another, without stopping.
Qin Xiaolou and white goose watched for a while.
As Qin Xiaolou watched, he suddenly muttered: "Junior brother's swordsmanship is really good, but it gives me a strange feeling"
"How do you feel?" the white goose asked.
"He's racing against time," Qin Xiaolou said thoughtfully. "He wants to improve his strength before a certain time."
White goose agreed: "I also feel the same, he really is under a lot of pressure"
Qin Xiaolou suddenly turned around and left.
"Where are you going?"
"Cultivate."
"At this time in the past, don't you always go to the West Mountain Country's restaurants to have fun?"
"I'm not going."
"Why?"
Qin Xiao Lou's footsteps stopped, saying: "If one day, junior brother needs this senior brother's help, but I can't do anything for him, I'll just think about that kind of thing"
With that, he left.
The white goose paused for a while, then smiled.
"Not bad, it's not too late to realize, thanks to Qing Shan" it muttered.
The white goose spread its wings and flew away.
Then, Hundred Flowers Fairy appeared in the clearing.
"Shifu" Gu Qing Shan stopped her swordsmanship.
"Qing Shan, your swordsmanship has improved, but there are a few areas where you've gone astray, if you don't correct them, you'll go down the wrong path"
Hundred Flowers Fairy took out a slender female cultivator sword.
"Come, let us spar, I'll show you where your weakness is" Hundred Flowers Fairy swung her sword and said.
The Saint personally taught her swordsmanship!
Gu Qing Shan was overjoyed and bowed, saying: "Shifu, then I'll do my best"
Hundred Flowers Fairy smiled and said: "If you hold back, you'll regret it"
Gu Qing Shan swung her sword and rushed forward.
Her sword turned into a blurred image, attacking with various sword styles and Secret Arts.
Gu Qing Shan's swordsmanship was like a thunderstorm, without holding back. If a bystander saw this, they might even feel like he wanted to kill Hundred Flowers Fairy.
Hundred Flowers Fairy had one hand behind her back while the other wielded her sword. Facing Gu Qing Shan's attacks, she only blocked and stabbed a few times, extremely relaxed.
One was like a storm, the other like a stroll in the afternoon, when their styles were put together, it gave off an indescribable sense of awkwardness.
After exchanging over 300 blows, Hundred Flowers Fairy finally spoke.
"Did you notice? Is it your own problem? "
"Is it because I'm too hasty?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Hundred Flowers Fairy smiled, then answered: "Sword cultivators that come from unorthodox backgrounds are always afraid that they're too slow, afraid that their attacks aren't fierce enough, afraid that the opponent's counterattack will happen, in the end, it's because they're not confident"
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
Hundred Flowers Fairy continued: "Swordsmanship is the same as the Grand Way, honorable, honorable, not too slow"
Seeing that Gu Qing Shan was still a bit confused, she raised her sword and said: "Again!"
After exchanging over a hundred blows, Hundred Flowers Fairy suddenly shouted: "Why are you risking your life!?"
She loudly scolded him: "Risking your life with every strike, you'll lose your life sooner or later, do you understand?"
Hundred Flowers Fairy suddenly swung her sword. Her sword lightly touched the Earth Sword.
Kih!
Gu Qing Shan was sent flying, landing on the ground and took 5 steps back.
Hundred Flowers Fairy casually said: "Did you see that? I wasn't risking my life, but why was my strike able to send you flying? "
Gu Qing Shan felt like he was hit by a heavy blow, standing still.
He held the Earth Sword straight, eyes closed, not moving at all.
"No, this isn't right, I understand now" he muttered in a low voice.
In the past life, there wasn't a single person who taught him how to cultivate, he had to use his own blood, his own rotten life in exchange for spirit stones, then spirit stones in exchange for sword techniques. Just like that, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself, by himself.
But now, with Bai Flower Fairy, one of humanity's three Saints, personally teaching him and feeding him, Gu Qing Shan's swordsmanship talent is finally starting to blossom.
Bai Hua Fairy saw that he was in a daze, completely oblivious to everything around him, and knew that the time was almost here.
She silently waved her hand, arranging multiple layers of formations around them.
Time slowly passed. Hundred Flowers Fairy stood by Gu Qing Shan's side until midnight.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly opened his eyes.
He swung the Earth Sword, practicing one strike after another, his movements getting faster and faster.
The strikes were still the same, the person was still the same, but a completely different aura was exuding from his body.
If he was like a wild, bloodthirsty wolf before, then right now, he's like a tiger that's peacefully resting under the sun.
All of a sudden, the dazzling sword strikes all disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan held his sword straight and unleashed a very normal strike.
Seeing this, Hundred Flowers Fairy finally smiled.
"Looks like I didn't waste my time tonight, anything else?" she asked.
"Yes"
Gu Qing Shan's sword stance changed, suddenly swinging towards Hundred Flowers Fairy.
Hundred Flowers Fairy parried this strike, then returned another.
Kih!
Gu Qing Shan also parried this strike, but didn't take a single step back, instead, he retaliated with another strike.
— — before, whenever Hundred Flowers Fairy took the initiative to counterattack, Gu Qing Shan would always be forced back a few steps. But this time, he actually counterattacked.
Hundred Flowers Fairy's eyes lit up.
"Good" she praised.
This strike has finally reached the next level.
"There's more" Gu Qing Shan said.
"There's more?" this time, Hundred Flowers Fairy was a bit surprised.
The Earth Sword attacked. In a split second, a bolt of blue lightning appeared on the blade.
Lightning is the power of heaven and earth, the master of destruction.
But this bolt of lightning didn't make any sound, nor did it contain any power.
As the two swords clashed, there was no sound, only the flash of lightning.
The lightning followed the slender dagger upwards, then was lightly scattered by Hundred Flowers Fairy.
But the corner of her lips curled up a bit, loudly praising: "Good!"
A loud 'clang'.
The two swords clashed, then separated.
The lightning disappeared in an instant.
Hundred Flowers Fairy smiled, looking at Gu Qing Shan with an appreciative gaze, saying: "With such swordsmanship, you won't be able to escape becoming a Sword Saint in the future, you might even become a Sainted in the future"
If an outsider were to hear Hundred Flowers Fairy's evaluation, their jaws would definitely drop.
Her eyes have always been one of the best in the world, so for her to say such an evaluation was too high.
Gu Qing Shan clasped her fist, gratefully saying: "Thank you for your guidance, Shifu"
Hundred Flowers Fairy nodded, saying: "I won't be able to teach you too much swordsmanship, you'll have to figure it out yourself from now on"
"Yes" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Hundred Flowers Fairy swiftly left.
After she left, Gu Qing Shan looked at the War God UI.
Just now, she seemed to have seen a line of glowing text appear on the War God UI, but because she was fighting with Hundred Flowers Fairy, she didn't have time to look.
Sure enough, a line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI, silently hovering right in the middle.
[All Sword Styles that won't cause the user's body/soul vessel to collapse have all been awakened]
[A total of 1106 Sword Styles have been comprehended, listed below]
…
As Gu Qing Shan quickly read down, he saw that besides the Secret Arts, everything else had been awakened.
He then looked at his Soul Points value, only to find that it hadn't been consumed at all.
All of this wasn't because of the System, it was purely the result of his two lives' worth of accumulation.
But Gu Qing Shan didn't feel any joy or sorrow, he didn't feel happy at all about regaining the Skills from his memories.
Because he was confident and calm.
He was very sure that right now, right here in Bai Hua Palace, his understanding of swordsmanship had already surpassed his past life.
