Based on Bu Fan's characteristics, the most suitable weapon for him was definitely the bow and arrow. He could shoot from a distance. The enemy could neither catch up nor run away.
As long as he mastered archery, Bu Fan would definitely become an unbeatable demon that would cause headaches to all his enemies.
Hearing Chu Xingyun's blueprint, Bu Fan's eyes lit up. However, he was quickly discouraged.
Ever since he could remember, Bu Fan had been cultivating sword techniques. Not only Bu Fan, but all the humans in the Qiankun World also cultivated sword techniques. There were very few exceptions.
For thousands of years, the Immortal Court had concluded that sword techniques were the most suitable for humans, had the lowest requirements, and could be cultivated by almost anyone. There were almost no restrictions.
Ever since they were young, everyone's first martial art was sword techniques. As they advanced, they continued to learn sword techniques.
Although they had dabbled in other weapons, their main subject was sword techniques. As for other martial arts, they only knew a little about them.
Of course, after reaching a higher learning institution like the Jiuxiao Academy, there would still be different subjects. Many Wu Ling could only cultivate other weapons. The Jiuxiao Academy would definitely not only have sword techniques as a subject.
Therefore, it was very difficult for Bu Fan to give up the sword and cultivate the bow.
However, in the end, Chu Xingyun still managed to convince Bu Fan. It was not because Chu Xingyun was eloquent, but because smart people were always able to distinguish the pros and cons.
Bu Fan could continue to cultivate sword techniques. However, even if he had a divine weapon, it would not change anything.
Was he the only one allowed to have a divine weapon and others were not allowed to have one? The gap was the gap. The innate disadvantage of the Three-tailed Swallow could never be made up for.
The Three-tailed Swallow was the fastest in the world.
However, its extreme strength was accompanied by mediocrity in other aspects. There was no Wu Ling that did not have any flaws.
The more outstanding a Wu Ling was in one aspect, the more mediocre the other aspects would be. Even a ninth-grade Wu Ling was no exception.
Since Bu Fan's speed was not explosive, there was no way out for him to cultivate sword techniques.
However, it was different for him to switch to the Dao of Archery. Although he had only dabbled a little in the Dao of Archery before, he basically had to start all over again, which seemed to be a huge loss.
However, that was not the case. Once one reached the level of Martial Emperor, one could easily live for thousands of years.
Compared to the 19 years he had lost, the next few thousand years were more important.
As long as one was willing to work hard, it was never too late to start.
For those who wanted to succeed, choosing the right direction and finding the right path was definitely more important than working hard.
In the face of Chu Xingyun's words, Bu Fan was originally noncommittal and wasn't convinced. It wasn't until Chu Xingyun gave an example that Bu Fan was finally convinced and changed to bow and arrow.
A person's life is like a boat on water.
If you chose the right direction, you would be sailing with the current. Even if you didn't work hard, the current would still carry you forward.
Once he chose the wrong direction, it would be like sailing against the current. No matter how hard he worked, his progress would definitely be slow. If he relaxed even a little bit, it would instead be regressing.
One was like walking ten thousand miles in a crouch, while the other was like sprinting, yet constantly regressing. This was the importance of direction.
Seeing that Bu Fan was finally convinced, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Bu Fan would be too stubborn. If that was the case, it would really be difficult to see any hope for his future.
As for going with the current and going against the current, it was actually just a concept. It seemed reasonable, but it wasn't necessarily the only truth.
Many times, even though sailing against the current seemed strenuous, it was actually the closest to the goal.
Take Chu Xingyun as an example. The path he walked had always been going against the current. Even though it was difficult, it was the most rewarding.
The more difficult the environment, the more it would train one. Even though one's cultivation speed wouldn't be the fastest, it would definitely be the most solid.
After confirming that he would change to bow and arrow, Bu Fan returned to his tent and thought hard about it.
Bu Fan's path ultimately depended on himself. As for what kind of archer he wanted to become, only he could think about it. No one could help him.
After sending Bu Fan off, Chu Xingyun washed up and rushed to the Jiuxiao Academy's tent.
By noon, the exam had officially ended. All the surviving candidates had rushed back.
Originally, there were a hundred examinees assigned to this military camp. However, there were only about fifty of them standing here alive at this moment.
Nearly half of the candidates had died on the battlefield, never to return.
Of the 50 candidates, only 36 had successfully completed the Hundred Demon Slash. The others didn't complete the task and didn't get into the Jiuxiao Academy in the end.
Under the guidance of the invigilators, the eliminated candidates quickly left through the Teleportation Spiritual Array.
Those examinees who had died in battle also sent a notice to their families. According to the rules, their families would receive a generous pension.
In the end, there were only 36 candidates who had successfully completed the Hundred Demon Slash.
Under the guidance of the invigilators, everyone went through the Teleportation Spiritual Array and returned to Nine Heavens City.
After registering, Chu Xingyun received the Jiuxiao Academy's student badge.
From this moment on, Chu Xingyun was a member of the Jiuxiao Academy.
Finally … he was here.
Looking at the huge and glorious Nine Heavens City, Chu Xingyun's heart pounded violently.
In this three-hundred-mile-long inner city, there was someone he loved. He just didn't know … how she was doing?
Just as Chu Xingyun was thinking about Shui Liu Xiang, in the Nine Heavens City's City Lord Mansion, a beautiful figure was leaning against the window, staring blankly at the sky outside.
This beautiful figure was none other than Shui Liu Xiang.
Loneliness, emptiness, loneliness …
Life, no longer has any meaning …
Before, when she was in the True Spirit Continent, even though she was imprisoned in the ice tower of the Jiuhan Temple, even though she was tortured day and night, Shui Liu Xiang's heart had always been happy and full of hope.
Because she knew that the person she loved the most in this world also loved her deeply.
One day, he would step onto the colorful clouds, holding a sword, and step onto the Jiuhan Temple. He would kill all the bad guys and save her.
In the end, everything was just as she had dreamed. Chu Xingyun stepped onto the Jiuhan Temple, killed Ye Xueshang, and saved her from the abyss of suffering.
At that moment, Shui Liu Xiang's love for Chu Xingyun had reached a peak, a limit. At that moment, she was willing to do anything for Chu Xingyun, even die for him.
However, just when Shui Liu Xiang thought that the prince had saved the princess and that they would live a happy life, Ye Qianhan appeared.
Not only Ye Qianhan appeared, but also the child that belonged to Chu Xingyun in Ye Qianhan's arms.
It couldn't be wrong, it couldn't be wrong. Although Chu Xingyun didn't admit it, she could feel that Chu Xingyun's blood flowed in the child's veins.
At that moment, Shui Liu Xiang's world collapsed.
At that moment, Shui Liu Xiang felt really embarrassed and unnecessary.
It turned out that Chu Xingyun had already fallen in love with someone else, and even … had a child with that person.
In this case, what was she? What was her love for him? How lowly …
It turned out that all this was just her wishful dream.
That's right … She was just a lowly servant girl. How could she become Chu Xingyun's wife and receive all of his love?
Ye Qianhan, Chu Xingyun, and the child stood there as a family of three. What a harmonious family. At that moment, Shui Liu Xiang became the only outsider.
What should she do? Should she rush over and hug Chu Xingyun and beg for love?
How could she stay? She was already so lowly. Was she going to be even more lowly and become a third party?
No … she wanted to preserve her last shred of dignity for her lowly self.
Her pride made it impossible for her to stay. She could only choose to leave.
