Chapter 8: Academy Competition
Ye Qiubai's name quickly spread throughout the entire academy.
Countless people were amazed by this person's strength.
It was as if he was already invincible in the Golden Core Pill realm!
Sword Hall.
After Xin Hongyi heard this news,
"Is Ye Qiubai the disciple that the Cottage took in on that day…"
"However, if he can do it, I can definitely do better than him."
"I'll let you know how much of a loss it was to not take me in as your disciple that day."
With that, Xin Hongyi picked up a sword and went straight to the martial arts arena.
That day, Xin Hongyi's name also spread throughout the entire academy.
10 battles, 10 victories, all crushed!
Xin Hongyi announced on the martial arts arena that she would challenge Ye Qiubai in the academy's competition!
Everyone was in an uproar.
On the other side, in the Martial Hall.
In a courtyard, Ye Yan sat on the stone chair, his expression uncertain.
"Ye Qiubai! How is this possible? How is this possible?!"
He had seen with his own eyes the scene of Ye Qiubai's talent disappearing and losing his cultivation!
How many days had it been?
He had already reached the peak of the Golden Core Pill \realm and shone brightly in the academy!
"No, I can't let him return to the family alive…"
The Ye family was in an internal struggle for power.
Great Elder Ye Ling and the current Patriarch, Ye Qing, were fighting for the power of the family.
Ye Qing was at a disadvantage because of his son, Ye Qiubai.
However, once the old fellows of the family found out that Ye Qiubai had recovered his talent and was even stronger than before, the situation might be reversed.
"If that's the case…"
Ye Yan's eyes were filled with malice.
At the same time, various cultivation techniques and martial techniques of the Academy were stored in the Martial Arts Pavilion.
Ye Qiubai had obtained a large number of contribution points, so he naturally wanted to come to the academy to take a look at the martial techniques here.
Ye Qiubai walked around the cultivation technique area a few times.
After reading a few books, there was no lack of Earth-Tier cultivation techniques.
"As expected of the Hidden Dao Academy. These cultivation techniques are much stronger than the cultivation techniques of the aristocratic families and sects in the outside world."
The Ye family's cultivation technique was a Mystic-Tier cultivation technique.
However, Ye Qiubai was not interested in these at all. The difference between these and the Primordial Sword Scripture was too great after all.
What level of cultivation technique is this Primordial Sword Scripture…
His master was really mysterious.
He did not know what level his strength had reached to be able to take out a cultivation technique like the Primordial Sword Scripture and even draw a painting filled with concepts.
Thinking of this, Ye Qiubai respected Lu Changsheng even more.
Lu Changsheng, who was lying in the Cottage sun, suddenly sneezed.
"Yawn! Which little brat is scolding me?"
Ye Qiubai was attracted by a separate incomplete book when he passed by the martial arts area.
He walked over, picked up the scripture and opened it. He saw that there was only the cultivation method for the first to third sword moves.
Ye Qiubai thought for a moment. It was too tiring for him to use the sword skills in the Primordial Sword Scripture now. Some of them could not be used at all.
He might as well use this Nine Heavenly Demon Sword to transition first.
Thinking of this, Ye Qiubai took the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword and walked out. When he handed over the contribution points, the elder guarding the pavilion said, "This scroll is incomplete. Even the Hidden Dao Academy doesn't have the last six moves. Whether you can master the last six moves in the future will depend on your luck. Are you sure you want to take this book?"
Ye Qiubai nodded.
Seeing this, the elder guarding the pavilion stopped persuading him. He handed the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword to Ye Qiubai and continued to sit down to rest.
When Ye Qiubai returned to the Cottage, Lu Changsheng was fertilizing the willow tree and feeding the little bird with spiritual fruits.
"Sigh, a tree still needs me to apply spiritual soil. A mere little bird wants to eat spiritual fruits. What a prodigal."
The little bird flapped its fiery red wings to express its dissatisfaction.
Seeing Ye Qiubai walk over, Lu Changsheng threw the spiritual soil to him and said, "Come and see me after you're done."
Ye Qiubai nodded.
After everything was completed, he went to search for Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng lay on the bench and said, "I heard that you went to the martial arts arena today? How were your results?"
Ye Qiubai cupped his fists and said respectfully, "I didn't disgrace the name of the Cottage. I won all of them.
"Master, I have something else to ask."
With that, he took out the incomplete volume of the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword and asked, "I took this from the martial arts area just now. I want Master to guide me."
Lu Changsheng glanced at it and took it. "Incomplete volume?"
[Incomplete Nine Heavenly Demon Sword Scroll. It can be repaired and improved.]
The system has such a function?
"Repair."
With that, the remaining six moves of the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword appeared in his mind.
"Come here."
Ye Qiubai walked forward and Lu Changsheng pointed at Ye Qiubai's glabella. A large amount of information flowed into Ye Qiubai's sea of consciousness.
The Nine Heavenly Demon Sword was completely rolled up!
Then, Lu Changsheng picked up a branch and dismantled it according to the sword technique of the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword.
Ye Qiubai watched from the side and was shocked.
This was because the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword that Lu Changsheng used not only perfectly replicated the contents of the incomplete volume, but it was also a little more mysterious and stronger than the original!
After all nine swords were used,
Lu Changsheng put away his sword and said, "Its power is alright. It's enough for you to use for a while. Also, the Academy Competition is in two days. Prepare yourself and go cook. I'm hungry."
With that, Lu Changsheng walked into the straw house.
Two days later.
Ye Qiubai kept cultivating the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword.
On the day of the academy competition, Ye Qiubai could already use the fifth move of the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword.
"Unfortunately, with my current realm, I can only barely use the fifth move."
Thinking of how relaxed Lu Changsheng was when he used the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword, he sighed inwardly that he still had a long way to go.
The Academy Competition was held in the square of the Hidden Dao Academy.
The square was currently noisy with countless people surrounding the six high platforms.
These six high platforms meant that a total of six people would win this Academy Competition.
The six people who won would represent the Southern Region's Hidden Dao Academy to participate in the exchanges between the other academies in the Northern Region.
It was called an exchange, but it was actually a battle to snatch the resources of the Academy.
Qin Tiannan appeared in midair and said loudly, "There are six platforms here. The people who are still standing on them before the sun sets will win. There are no restrictions, but no deaths."
After that, Qin Tiannan announced the rewards for the victor.
Everyone was in an uproar immediately. The rewards this time were much higher than usual.
The Academy Competition began.
However, no one moved.
The results would only be announced after the sunset. If he went up now, he would only be surrounded. This way, even if he could defeat them, he would be exhausted to death by the others…
Qin Tiannan and the elders of the various halls sat on a chair not far away and also pulled Lu Changsheng over.
His face was filled with unwillingness.
"Alright, I won't say anything about you usually. Your disciple is participating today. Aren't you going to take a look yourself as his master?"
Qin Tiannan could not help but smile when he saw Lu Changsheng's resentment. "I also want to see how far your disciple can go in the competition."
