"This sword is made of meteoric iron. The shape of the blade is smooth and the edge is unparalleled. It is a rare weapon. Other than its murderous aura, it has no flaws."
Ye Fan said calmly as he sipped his tea.
"Hahaha … Bufan -kun is indeed an expert in sword appraisal. You can describe the characteristics of this sword in one sentence."
After listening to Ye Fan, Matsumoto Takeyoshi said with a smile.
Ye Fan smiled but did not say anything.
Although he looked calm and composed on the surface, in reality, his heart was palpitating with fear.
The sharpness of the blade, the density of the blade, and the intensity of the murderous aura were rarely seen in the world!
If the powerful Black Feather Army was equipped with such a powerful weapon, it would be like adding wings to a tiger!
This time, the Ye family had really met their match!
"What do you think about this sword?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked around at the masters and asked.
"Mr. Matsumoto, this sword does look like a peerless weapon. It is rare in the world, but …"
Chi Yao turned his head to look at Matsumoto Takeyoshi. He wanted to say something but stopped himself.
"But what?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked Chi Yao with a smile.
"But no one knows the true power of this sword," Chi Yao said with a smile.
"Chi Yao -kun, you mean …" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked Chi Yao with a smile.
"If Mr. Matsumoto doesn't mind, can we take turns to test this blade and see how powerful it really is?" Chi Yao replied with a smile. "As the saying goes, if one is a donkey, then one is a horse. If we don't test it, how can we know the true power of this Black Feather Blade? What do you think, Mr. Matsumoto? "
As soon as Chi Yao finished speaking, the masters looked at each other and nodded slightly.
All the masters agreed with Chi Yao's idea.
Sabers were meant to be used to kill enemies, not to be used for decoration.
Only in actual combat could one test the true power of the saber and their own strengths and weaknesses.
That being said, they also wanted to personally test out the peerless divine weapon forged by the Saber Emperor. They wanted to see how much power this saber could unleash!
Ye Fan glanced at Chi Yao from the corner of his eye.
He could tell that this guy was helping him.
Everyone knew that the Imperial Court had cleared the Ye Clan's name. The news of Zhou Dao's army turning against the Imperial Court had also spread throughout the world.
Even a fool could see that if the imperial court wanted to fight against the armies of the four empires and Zhou Dao's hundreds of thousands of soldiers, they definitely couldn't do without the help of the Ye family.
One must know that when two armies fought, other than the confrontation between the soldiers, it was also a competition of the weapons in their hands.
The military equipment made by the Ye family was unparalleled in the world. Naturally, they could help the imperial army.
The reason why Chi Yao did this was because she wanted to test how powerful the Black Feather Saber that was tailor-made for the Black Feather Troop was, so that the Ye Family could be prepared in advance!
After making the suggestion, Chi Yao drank his tea as if nothing had happened.
Seeing the experts nodding their heads, Matsumoto Takeyoshi smiled faintly.
"Mr. Chi Yao is right. If we don't test it, we can't see the true power of the saber," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said to the experts with a smile. "Since everyone is so interested, let's do as Mr. Chi Yao said and take turns testing this saber."
Since he dared to show this saber in front of everyone, he naturally had a card up his sleeve.
No one had ever surpassed the weapons forged by the Saber Emperor Sato. He was very confident about this.
As soon as Matsumoto Takeyoshi said this, the experts' faces lit up.
Not everyone could test the peerless divine weapon personally forged by the Saber Emperor.
This was a supreme honor!
"Come, let's go to the deck to test this saber," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said as he stood up from the futon.
The Black Feather Saber was a peerless divine weapon, and the people testing this saber were all top experts. Of course, they had to choose an open space. Otherwise, this Wuji would be completely destroyed by this saber within a few rounds.
The deck of the ship faced the sea and was extremely spacious. It was the most suitable place to test this saber.
Seeing Matsumoto Takeyoshi stand up, the experts did not dare to delay and quickly stood up and said in unison, "Yes."
Just like that, Matsumoto Takeyoshi walked in front with the white-robed man by his side. The experts followed closely behind.
"Later, you have to show them what you've got. Let these Dongying fellows see something new."
Chi Yao, who was walking at the back of the group, lowered her voice and whispered to Ye Fan who was walking beside her.
Ye Fan glanced at Chi Yao but did not say anything.
The group of people arrived at the deck of the battleship in a grandiose manner.
It was already late at night. On the surface of the East China Sea, the sea breeze blew and the waves sparkled.
In Ye Kong, a crescent moon hung high in the sky like a bow and hook.
"Greetings, Lord!"
Seeing Matsumoto Takeyoshi personally arrive on the deck, the white-robed ninjas guarding the deck immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed their heads.
"Where is the battleship now?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked at the sea and asked the ninjas.
"Replying to Lord, the battleship is now southeast of the East China Sea, less than five hundred li away from the coast," one of the ninjas replied with his head lowered.
"Where is the nearest island?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi continued asking.
"Lord, please take a look. Southwest of the battleship, there is a small island less than fifty li away," the ninja replied respectfully as he passed the binoculars to Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi took the binoculars and looked southwest.
Everything was as the ninja said, there was indeed an uninhabited island in the southwest direction.
"Tell the others to turn the ship around and head toward the island. Anchor five li away from the island."
Matsumoto Takeyoshi returned the binoculars to the ninja and ordered.
"Yes." The ninja took the binoculars and turned around.
"In a while, you will use the Black Feather Blade to chop the island to test the power of this blade. What do you think?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi turned around and asked the experts with a smile.
Obviously, the chop that Matsumoto Takeyoshi said was to chop the island in the air, and it was to chop the island five li away from the island.
"We are willing to listen to Mr. Matsumoto's arrangement," the experts replied in unison.
The distance of five li was neither too far nor too close, and the target was an uninhabited island. It was the perfect target for testing the blade.
"Since this is to test the blade, why don't we set up a competition? It will be more interesting this way," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said to the experts. "The top three in terms of destructive power will be rewarded handsomely."
Matsumoto Takeyoshi knew that these people would only use their true strength when they were divided into three, six, and nine levels.
They were all famous experts in Japan, and none of them wanted to be left behind.
In this way, they would naturally use their trump cards.
The experts looked at each other and did not say anything.
It was supposed to be a test of the Black Feather Blade, but it turned out to be a competition of cultivation. Matsumoto Takeyoshi was indeed an expert at using people.
There was no need to guess. The person who came out on top was either Ye Fan or Qingkong Yihe.
Ye Fan's spiritual power was unfathomable, and he was good at using swords and sabers. It was not surprising that he came out on top.
But then again, Qingkong Yihe's strength was also exciting.
The strength of this person's spiritual power and cultivation were unimaginable to the experts.
When the green-eyed boy was taught a lesson by Ye Fan, this person blocked Ye Fan's attack with one move. During the battle with the Nether Ghosts, this person used many big moves with shocking power, showing his extraordinary cultivation!
Other than the two of them, Chi Yao and Onigirō were also very strong and could not be underestimated.
However, the two of them were good at using spells, not swords and sabers.
This time, they were testing the Black Feather Blade and not spells, so the two of them should not be a match for Ye Fan and Qingkong Yihe.
Other than that, the leader of the Koga Sect, Bamu Changqing, the mysterious expert, Zakuetsu Shinichi, and Kamehameha the Broken Blade were also very strong and could not be underestimated.
During the battle with the Nether Ghosts, Bamu Changqing only used one blade to cut the Nether Ghost Ship into pieces. His saber skills were so strong that it was shocking. Zakuetsu Shinichi carried two Nether Ghost Ships in one hand and broke out of the sea. His strength was so strong that it was shocking. Kamehameha was known as the Broken Blade, and his saber skills were so strong that it was unrivaled!
If Ye Fan and Qingkong Yihe were the candidates for first place, then the three of them were the best candidates for second place!
As for the remaining experts, their strength was about the same, so they could only fight for third place.
Of course, this was under the premise that the white-robed man, Yamada Shingo, did not participate in this competition.
If he was also involved, it would be even more confusing to see who would emerge victorious.
"This is going to be a good show." Chi Yao, who was standing at the back of the group, crossed her arms and laughed softly.
Akatsuki looked at Ye Fan and did not say anything.
Whoosh …
Wuji's sails were hung high as it broke through the waves towards the small island!
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the warship slowly came to a stop.
"Reporting to my lord, the warship is already in position. The uninhabited island is right in front of us." The ninja from before quickly walked in front of Matsumoto Takeyoshi and reported respectfully.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi waved his hand, and the ninja bowed and left.
"Everyone, the competition can start now."
Matsumoto Takeyoshi turned around and said to the experts.
The experts nodded slightly at Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
"Who will go first?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked the experts.
The experts looked at each other, but no one stepped forward.
In this kind of competition, whoever went first would be the one at a disadvantage.
"Mr. Matsumoto, what is the reward for the top three?"
Chi Yao asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi with a smile.
"Third place, one of the Seven Precious Treasures. Second place, seven Energy Enhancing Pills. As for the helmet …" Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked at the Black Feather Blade in the ninja's hand and smiled mysteriously.
"What is the helmet reward?" Chi Yao asked with a smile.
"The helmet reward is this Black Feather Blade." Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked at the experts and said with a smile.
What?! The helmet reward is this Black Feather Blade made by the Blade Emperor?!
When Matsumoto Takeyoshi finished his sentence, the experts were shocked!
Chi Yao's smile disappeared, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face. Ye Fan frowned, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
No one would have thought that Matsumoto Takeyoshi would be so generous as to give away such a rare and peerless Godly Weapon as a reward!
Why?
Why would Matsumoto Takeyoshi give away such a precious weapon?
He clearly knew that he would be able to get first place, so why would he do that?
Could it be that there was something else going on?
The more Ye Fan thought about it, the more confused he became.
