Chapter 1482 Something’s Wrong with Your Sword

“My, my lord!”

Fengwu was very tough, and he had a reputation as a powerful master in the outside world.

But at this moment, he was the first one to admit defeat. Enduring the pain in his body, he got up and walked over slowly with his body bent.

“I’m sorry that we couldn’t see what’s in front of us.”

Zhang Han’s face darkened. “You couldn’t see what’s in front of you? What do you mean? Are you blind?”

“I…”

Fengwu’s heart seemed to skip a beat and thumped.

Since the other party was so difficult to deal with, he would probably be doomed today.

For a moment, he felt a chill run down his spine and didn’t know what to do.

“We were in the wrong. Milords, please forgive us. We were blind. Well, there’s no need to spar. We’ll let you advance directly. We’ll quit.”

“We’re convinced, we’re convinced, completely convinced.”

“Milord, please do not be impulsive.”

“Milord, please forgive this lowly one. We know that we were wrong.”

The people of the three first-echelon sects directly admitted their mistakes.

Unexpectedly, they made it sound so desolate. It was as if they had made a small mistake and were about to die. They expressed clearly that they should not be sentenced to death.

“Leave now. Stop being an eyesore here.”

Yue Wuwei waved his hand lightly.

“Yes, milord.”

Fengwu and the others looked at each other and left quickly.

They didn’t dare to wipe the cold sweat on their foreheads until they were far away.

“Heavens! We’ve messed with some terrifying masters that we can’t afford to offend!”

“Who is that old man? He’s too powerful. That young man also gave me a lot of pressure.”

“We can’t afford to offend them. We absolutely can’t,” another elder said with a lingering fear. “This kind of one-in-a-billion opportunity has actually been discovered by us. How could the Radiant Institute of the Heavenly Double Star know such powerful figures? Their cultivation is not inferior to that of the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects at all. Such experts should have gone to the Galaxy a long time ago.”

“Maybe they’re just passing by the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven. No matter what, since we’ve run into them, it’s not shameful for us to lower our heads and admit our mistakes. It’s already a good thing that we’re still alive.”

“…”

The group of people left in a hurry, attracting the strange looks of many teams behind them.

“Why does it seem that the three first-echelon sects have suffered a loss?”

“Who knows what happened in there?”

“The people of the three sects have left, but the Radiant Institute has stayed inside. This…”

The onlookers were also a little confused.

They didn’t know what was going on.

However, Protector Li Kun, who was sitting in the main seat, exclaimed in his heart. “Holy shit. Where did these big shots come from? Not to mention you, even I can’t afford to offend them.”

Li Kun didn’t want to interfere in this matter at all. However, he had the Ling Sea Sword Sect as his backer and the people of the Radiant Institute were also going to join his sect. They were on the same side, so Li Kun was able to remain calm, but he was a little frightened.

“We’re advancing just like that?”

Many disciples of the Radiant Institute were confused.

“That was easy. We’re so powerful!”

“Everyone, you are now inner-door disciples. Well, go along the corridor and record your identities, and then the others can leave. You can rest assured to leave your disciples in the Ling Sea Sword Sect to cultivate. If you want to visit them, just submit an application in advance.”

Experts could be respected wherever they went.

The chief supervisor of the Ling Sea Sword Sect showed a humble attitude.

After this small incident, the people of the Radiant Institute held their heads high and walked along the corridor.

The Sect Leader of the Radiant Institute grinned from ear to ear.

“Thank you, Big Brother. Thank you, everyone.”

Although not all the participants who advanced were qualified, that was the bet. There were special cases every year.

After the disciples had their identity information recorded, the Sect Leader waved his hand at the crowd and said, “From now on, you are all members of the Ling Sea Sword Sect. Cultivate here well. Don’t forget to go back to the Heavenly Double Star to visit me when you have made some achievements in your cultivation.”

“Don’t worry, Sect Leader. I’ll never forget you.”

“…”

They all said goodbye to the Sect Leader. On the other side, Yue Wuwei was unwilling to disguise himself as a young man. Because he was too old to take part in the assessment, he was not one of the participants.

“Dad, when will you come here again?” Yue Xiaonao asked.

“This is the Vast Wood Star. I’ll go to the Vast Heaven Star and wait for you there,” Yue Wuwei said.

As for how he would go to the Vast Heaven Star, no one asked, nor did they care.

Yue Wuwei was now the strongest among everyone on the team, so there was no need to worry about him at all.

“Alright,” Yue Xiaonao replied.

Lisa did not say anything. No one else knew about her current cultivation level. Moreover, no one had ever seen her attack again.

She had Yue Wuwei by her side. Everyone knew that her cultivation level wouldn’t be low.

...

They waited here for two days before the assessment was over. Among the subsidiary sects of the Ling Sea Sword Sect, 310,000 people passed this year.

The number of people in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven was too large. The annual assessment wasn’t even a big one.

The fleets marched toward the Vast Heaven Star in a mighty manner.

Just like Zhang Han’s last trip, they came to a city on the edge of the inner court of the Vast Heaven Star.

Many disciples from the peaks had come to recruit disciples.

The publicity was varied.

“The Ling Sea Sword Sect is the strongest in Tao of the sword. You’re welcome to join the Sword Edge.”

“The pellet refining branch earns money the fastest.”

“It’s safest to learn the maintenance of the array of formations.”

“…”

The Sword Edge was the largest, containing more than a hundred different peaks.

...

These were similar to the major departments of an academy. However, the difference was that even if one joined the Sword Edge, one could learn other knowledge, such as beast training, pellet refining, the array of formations, and so on.

One could take an all-around development and free cultivation.

“Do we need to join a peak?” Mengmeng asked.

Zhang Han thought for a moment and said, “It’s up to you guys.”

“Let’s stay in one place first. There’s nothing to do anyway. Shall we join the Sword Edge?”

“It has many peaks. Which one should we choose?”

“Swordbamboo Peak.”

“Let’s go to Swordbamboo Peak.”

In the end, everyone made a decision.

The Sword Edge was also divided into different factions. Some were proficient in Eidolon swordsmanship, while some were proficient in swift and fierce moves.

The Swordbamboo Peak was a middle-level peak among the other peaks of the Sword Edge. It was not large and did not have many disciples.

However, the three great sword occult arts of the Swordbamboo Peak were extremely difficult to learn. They were respectively Emerald Jade, Violet Bamboo, and Wind Riding.

Wind Riding was a kind of secret technique of the Sword-commanding Technique. It could quickly improve the speed and power of sword commanding. It was quite profound, but many disciples had mastered it.

Violet Bamboo represented the purple Qi from the east, and the bamboo meant a bamboo forest. The vision it created was somewhat similar to the sea of swords, but it was more mysterious and unpredictable, difficult to grasp and defend.

As for Emerald Jade, everyone had only heard of its name. It was a broken piece that no one had mastered yet.

These were the three famous secret sword arts of Swordbamboo Peak.

As for the other peaks, there were at least ten types of occult arts, and at most over a hundred of them. Naturally, their attraction would be greater.

However, Zhang Han and the others didn’t lack the occult arts of the Tao of the sword.

They wanted to join the Swordbamboo Peak which had a relatively small number of people.

“It’s a correct choice for you to join the Swordbamboo Peak.”

That male disciple led the crowd to the Swordbamboo Peak. A total of 183 people joined them.

“Our Swordbamboo Peak has a tradition.”

After arriving at the foot of the Swordbamboo Peak, the man said, “As newcomers, you will have a Senior Martial Brother take care of you for a month. This will be your learning period, as well as the period of getting familiar with the environment and adapting. You are very lucky. This time, it is Eldest Brother Xing Nan who will take care of you. You should not have heard of him. Xing Nan is a famous talent in the north of the Sword Edge. He is the No.1 among the younger generation of the Swordbamboo Peak. He is already a chief supervisor at such a young age and is expected to be promoted to protector within three years. He can teach you a lot of things.”

Upon hearing this, many disciples became excited.

“Our Ling Sea Sword Sect is divided into two areas. The south coast and the north coast are separated by an ocean. Both coasts are respectively divided into the east and west areas. It means that the inner court of the Ling Sea Sword Sect has four major areas. Our peak is located in the east of the south coast. This is the geographical division. The Sword Edge is the No. 1 in swordsmanship. Therefore, Senior Brother Xing Nan won’t be guiding you for free. You have just arrived at the sect, and each of you has a basic 100 points. If you pay 50 points, you can learn some knowledge from him.”

“Senior Martial Brother.” At this time, someone asked, “If we want to learn, we have to pay 50 points. Can we not learn? Can we just enter the sect directly?”

At this time, the senior martial brother who led the team smiled faintly with contempt in his eyes. He shook his head and said, “You can choose not to learn, but in the Swordbamboo Peak, you are new here. Are you sure you want to go against the traditional rules? You have merely 100 points. Most of the time, without the guidance of a senior, you will consume your points easily. Whether you want to buy a loss or a lesson, do you want me to tell you how to choose?”

Many people understood the implication. Obediently handing in the points and entering the sect safely was the first lesson for the newcomers. If they did not cooperate, they would be cheated by the seniors and lose their credit.

When the disciple who had just asked the question saw that the senior martial brother was staring at him, he lowered his head slightly and did not dare to ask anymore.

The thin-faced senior brother asked in a deep voice, “It is your fortune to be able to learn from Senior Brother Xing Nan. Is there anyone else who objects?”

Seeing that a small number of people were ready to object, he said coldly, “You have to abide by the tradition of which peak you go to. If anyone doesn’t comply with the rules, then don’t say that I didn’t warn all of you today if there are any problems in the future.”

Clatter!

No one dared to object any longer.

However, there were still a small number of 183 people who didn’t want to pay 50 points for no good reason.

They’d also heard that the points of the Four Great Sects were extremely precious and could be exchanged for treasures that couldn’t be bought in the outside world.

But everyone knew that the outstanding usually bore the brunt of the attack.

They felt that someone would disagree, but no one would step forward since everyone kept quiet.

Some people even considered that if no one did object, they would follow the tradition. After all, they were in others’ territory.

“Senior Brother, have you finished?”

Suddenly, a woman’s voice was heard.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Everyone looked over.

A woman dressed in a long red gown walked out. Her eyes were very lively. “I’m not going to follow Eldest Brother’s guidance. I’m lazy. Um, Senior Brother, where do we live? Tell me, and I’ll go myself.”

The thin-faced senior brother’s face darkened slightly. He pointed to the mountain and said, “Go to the reception hall and ask.”

Since she started it, there were people following.

Swoosh!

A man silently walked out and followed the woman in red up the mountain.

In just one minute, more than a dozen people stepped out of the line.

“Humph!”

The thin-faced man snorted coldly. Without waiting for the others to leave, he said, “Everyone else, follow me. We’ll go straight to the inner peak.”

The group of people flew straight into the mountain range in all kinds of positions.

Zhang Han and his fellows were among them.

“You made the right choice. I’m afraid that those people have to suffer some losses to understand how to live on Swordbamboo Peak. They won’t just lose 100 points but even more.”

The thin-faced man sneered and then began to get down to business. “The area ahead of us is the Swordbamboo Peak. There are a total of 3,000 peaks in the surrounding area. Later, I will arrange for you to stay on the peaks with a good geographical location.”

While flying, he controlled the communication device to inquire about the information.

“You guys will stay at Yellow Leaf Peak. I’ll send you there.”

A moment later, they arrived at the place. As the name suggested, the Yellow Leaf Peak was very large, surrounded by countless buildings, and there were several halls on the mountainside.

“You’ll go to the hall in the middle. Someone will arrange a residence for each of you and tell you the specific rules. You can wait in this square for a while.”

The thin-faced man took everyone to a martial arts practice field to wait and then left in a hurry.

About ten minutes later, he and a black-clothed man walked over.

“This is Senior Brother Liu Sheng. He’s one of Eldest Brother Xing Nan’s men,” the thin-faced man introduced.

“From today on, I will be in charge of helping you familiarize yourselves with Swordbamboo Peak. Nominally, Xing Nan will be in charge of it, but he’s been busy in recent days.” Liu Sheng looked around and said lightly, “Your basic tuition fees have been paid. Now each of you will pay 50 points. Here, I will teach you the first lesson. There are a total of eight basic swordsmanship sets of the Swordbamboo Peak, and I will teach you them one by one.”

“You’re smart.” The thin-faced man smiled faintly and said, “If the dozen people who left want to learn the basic swordsmanship, they won’t know how to learn it. This is the difference between whether one has a guide. You will stay here and focus on learning from Senior Brother Liu Sheng. I’ll leave now.”

Liu Sheng nodded slightly, and the thin-faced man left.

What they didn’t know was that the dozen people had received eight kinds of basic swordsmanship in the reception hall.

The biggest difference between whether someone had a guide was whether he spent money or not.

Everyone was paying their points.

Some people hesitated, but Liu Sheng had already walked up to them. They had no choice but to hand over their points.

When he came to Mengmeng, she suddenly asked, “Senior brother Liu Sheng, can I learn the sword occult arts by paying general points?”

“We’ll probably learn a very powerful occult art,” Zhang Han said with a smile. “Judging from his face, I think Senior Brother Liu Sheng is very powerful.”

“That’s true.” Zi Yan smiled, blinked her beautiful big eyes, and said, “Senior Brother Liu Sheng is so handsome and capable. If we pay the points, I wonder how many occult arts we can learn.”

“Hahaha.”

Liu Sheng’s eyes were scanning Zi Yan and Mengmeng’s delicate cheeks.

He couldn’t tell that they were mother and daughter.

He just felt amazed.

He forced a smile and said, “You will get to learn the occult arts, and you will learn a lot of them. It all depends on your comprehension.”

As for the others, including Yue Xiaonao, Zhao Feng, and Chen Changqing, their lips were all curled up.

Zhang Han’s family wanted to play. It seemed that Liu Sheng had to suffer a lot of losses.

“Sure enough, we can’t judge a book by its cover. Brother Han looks so innocent, yet he’s horrifying.” Chen Changqing thought to himself.

“I feel that my swordsmanship is very powerful now. Senior Brother Liu Sheng, what realm are you in?” Mengmeng asked in a sweet voice.

“I’m only at the God Transformation Realm Middle Stage. I’m still working hard on my cultivation,” Liu Sheng said. “But don’t worry, I’ll just be guiding you for a few days. When Senior Martial Brother Xing Nan comes, you’ll be able to learn some profound occult arts.”

“I’m at the God Transformation Realm Early Stage, but Senior Brother Liu Sheng is only at the God Transformation Realm Middle Stage. I don’t think you can teach us a lot of things,” Mengmeng said with a suspicious look.

“You’re right.” Zi Yan also sounded a little confused. “There is only a small gap between us. It seems that we don’t have many choices.”

“No, no, no.” Zhang Han put on a serious look and said, “I believe Senior Brother Liu Sheng is very powerful.”

“Haha.”

Liu Sheng didn’t even look at Zhang Han. He just ignored him and said, “Junior Sisters, don’t worry. We can have a friendly competition. The Sword Sect’s God Transformation Realm Middle-Stage cultivators are very different from those in the outside world.”

“A friendly competition? I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Zhang Han said hesitantly.

“I’m talking to two Junior Sisters. Can you stop interrupting me?” Liu Sheng said in a somewhat unhappy tone.

“Okay.” Zhang Han nodded obediently.

“I don’t believe you. Why don’t we have a competition?” Mengmeng said.

“Stop it. Why would Senior Brother Liu Sheng compete with you for free?” Zi Yan said.

Mengmeng didn’t wait for Liu Sheng to speak and continued, “I’ll pay for it. I still have 50 points left. Let’s compete in swordsmanship first. If I lose, I’ll give my 50 points to you, Senior Brother.”

“What if you win?” Zi Yan said doubtfully, “It can’t be a one-sided bet, right? Senior Brother Liu Sheng will be so embarrassed. So many people are watching.”

“That’s right. Forget it. I’ll pay the points. I won’t compete with you anymore. Alas, I won’t,” Mengmeng said regretfully.

“We’ll do it.” Liu Sheng finally could speak. He said seriously, “Since you’re very confident, I won’t bully you. Let’s have a friendly competition and take the points as a bet. If you lose, you’ll give me 50 points. If I lose, I’ll give you 100 points.”

If he won in this way, he would get 50 more points.

With this, he could spar with others. After all, the seniors had to teach the freshmen a lesson.

“Okay. I’ll exchange a few moves with you,” Mengmeng said with a smile.

In the end, it was she who had to spar with Liu Sheng.

“Okay.”

Liu Sheng took a few steps back and looked at the others. “I joined the Ling Sea Sword Sect five years ago. At that time, I was at the Yuan Ying Realm Peak Stage. Now, I’m in the God Transformation Realm Middle Stage. After staying in the Sword Sect for a long time, I finally know how big the gap is between me and the masters in the outside world. I see that many of you are in the God Transformation Realm Early Stage. If you want to spar with me, we’ll have a sword competition. Come on, Junior Sister, let’s start first. I’ll fight you with the Sea-striped Sword, one of the eight basic swordsmanship skills of the Sword Sect.”

“Okay, Senior Brother. I’ve mastered a lot of swordsmanship. We can spar a few more moves,” Mengmeng said.

“Alas, three moves are enough to deal with you, but I’ll practice with you.”

Liu Sheng sighed softly, and a long sword appeared in his hand.

Mengmeng also took out her precious sword.

Liu Sheng wanted to give everyone a demonstration of basic swordsmanship. “The Sea-striped Sword has a total of nineteen moves. Those who have mastered them are very powerful. Look at my first move. I used the Sword Momentum to form ripples to assist in the attack. I was only proficient in this move after three months of practice. The mysteries within…”

Buzz!

Liu Sheng struck out with his sword.

Ripples spread out in waves.

However, a cold light suddenly flashed.

Clang!

A loud sound of collision rang out.

Liu Sheng’s sword suddenly deviated from its target.

A cold light appeared in front of Liu Sheng’s chest.

“Hey!”

Mengmeng was shocked. “Senior Brother Liu Sheng, how, how did you lose so quickly?”

Liu Sheng was dumbfounded.

“Did I lose?

“No way… Has the competition started?”

Liu Sheng recalled the scene just now and said doubtfully, “Something’s wrong with your sword.”
