Summit Mastery!
It was truly Summit Mastery!
And it was the Four Seasons Sword Technique.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian had even cultivated the Four Seasons Sword Technique to the Summit Mastery Realm.
Hu Xing, Cheng Beibei, and Yang Zhong were all staggered, their faces filled with disbelief.
They simply couldn’t accept that Yang Xiaotian, with a second-level Martial Soul, had cultivated the Four Seasons Sword Technique to Summit Mastery!
Cao Lu stared at the falling specks of frost and snow, his eyes agape, murmuring to himself, “Summit Mastery! Yet another Summit Mastery!”
Yang Xiaotian had cultivated the Tiger King Fist to Summit Mastery, which was already shocking to him.
Now even the Four Seasons Sword Technique was at Summit Mastery, he was beyond expression of his feelings at this moment.
Sword Thirteen cultivated to the Perfection Realm!
Tiger King Fist cultivated to Summit Mastery!
Four Seasons Sword Technique cultivated to Summit Mastery!
In this year’s first-year Martial Dao examination, wouldn’t Yang Xiaotian be the first?
Cao Lu’s emotions were complex and tumultuous.
First place in the Martial Dao examination, if taken by a student with a second-level Martial Soul, what a mockery it would be for all the genius students of the Divine Sword Academy!
Just then, suddenly, Yang Xiaotian brandished his sword and struck out.
“Sword Rise Wind State!”
The first move of Sword Thirteen.
Previously, Yang Xiaotian’s swordplay was lively, at the Perfection Realm.
But this time, everyone saw that when Yang Xiaotian’s swordplay actually split in two!
“The swordplay can split in two?! ” A student exclaimed, puzzled, upon seeing this.
But Cao Lu, Lin Yong, Chen Yuan, Hu Xing, and others changed their expressions upon witnessing this.
Could this be?!
As if confirming their thoughts, the sword winds split again.
Into four!
Then, it split once more.
Into eight!
Just when everyone thought it would keep dividing, suddenly, the sword wind that split into eight merged back together.
Yang Xiaotian’s sword flowed from one motion to the next.
His form was sometimes fast, sometimes slow, now soaring, now like a swimming dragon.
The students present were utterly mesmerized; they had never imagined such a basic sword technique as Sword Thirteen could be so splendid. Each of Yang Xiaotian’s strikes seemed to resonate with their very souls.
Every strike was so impeccably executed!
As Yang Xiaotian’s sword winds whirled, the trash can his fist force had punctured was caught in the sword winds and constantly flung high into the air, where it danced ceaselessly.
The more observant students noticed that the trajectory of the dancing trash can was exceedingly graceful.
Even a beautifully dancing maiden’s movements weren’t as exquisite.
“Sword Sweeps the Plains!”
Yang Xiaotian executed a strike.
In an instant, wherever the sword wind passed, sword waves emerged, flat and smooth as mirrors.
The dancing trash can came to an abrupt halt.
Yang Xiaotian stopped his sword and stood firm.
The trash can continued to fragment, eventually turning into countless pieces, like numerous petals fluttering in the air, lingering a long time without falling, as if held aloft by the sword winds, unable to touch the ground.
“The swordplay, ever-changing, also at Summit Mastery!” Xie Chu, who had previously sparred with Yang Xiaotian using Sword Thirteen, watched the lingering sword winds in mid-air with utter astonishment.
When they sparred, Yang Xiaotian had the Sword Thirteen at Perfection Realm, and now, it had reached Summit Mastery!
How long had it been?
At the scene, everyone was at a loss for words.
No one spoke.
They didn’t know what to say.
Tiger King Fist, Summit Mastery!
Four Seasons Sword Technique, also Summit Mastery!
Now even Sword Thirteen, Summit Mastery!
All at Summit Mastery!
To cultivate all the compulsory martial arts to the Summit Mastery Realm, it seemed like many years since anyone had done that.
The last time it happened was decades ago.
As Cao Lu remained silent for a long time, Yang Xiaotian was about to speak but saw Lin Yong and Chen Yuan approaching him excitedly.
They came up to Yang Xiaotian, unsure of what to say.
“Child, you.” Finally, it was Chen Yuan who asked excitedly, “How did you cultivate these three martial arts techniques?”
How did he cultivate them?
Yang Xiaotian frowned.
That was a tough question to answer.
Because he had learned them all after looking through them just once.
“Um, do I still need to come for the monthly assessments?” Yang Xiaotian asked, dodging the question.
Chen Yuan and Lin Yong were taken aback.
“Absolutely, you totally can,” Chen Yuan nodded and grinned broadly.
“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll head back,” Yang Xiaotian said, for he had borrowed the Cold Underworld Palm that morning and still needed to cultivate it.
Amidst the complex looks of those around him, Yang Xiaotian left the scene.
Hu Xing watched Yang Xiaotian’s departing figure, his eyes brimming with unprecedented jealousy.
He had always prided himself on having the best Martial Soul and Martial Dao Talent in the academy, but now, Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Dao Talent seemed even stronger!
A second-level Martial Soul with such incredible Martial Dao Talent!
Recalling that Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Soul was a second-level Giant Tortoise Martial Soul made Hu Xing feel a bit better.
A low-level Martial Soul, doomed to never break through to Martial King, meant that no matter how demonic Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Dao Talent was, it was of no use.
As Yang Xiaotian left the academy, Lu Zelin, who looked after the Book
Pavilion, also heard the news that Yang Xiaotian had cultivated Tiger King Fist, Four Seasons Sword Technique, and Sword Thirteen to Summit Mastery. Upon hearing the news, Lu Zelin was stunned for a long while.
Then he remembered that morning when he had asked Yang Xiaotian about his progress with the Gale Thunder Sword Technique.
Yang Xiaotian had replied that he had reached the Great Accomplishment Realm.
“It couldn’t really be true, could it!” Lu Zelin suddenly felt a chill.
Sometime later, Hu Xing arrived at the Book Pavilion, and upon hearing Lu
Zelin’s thoughts, he shook his head and said, “To cultivate the Gale Thunder
Sword Technique, a top-tier Innate Swordsmanship to Great Accomplishment? What’s gotten into your head? Yang Xiaotian blurted something out and you actually took it seriously?”
“A post-Innate being, how could he possibly cultivate Innate Martial Arts! Let alone the Gale Thunder Sword Technique, a top-tier Innate Swordsmanship.”
Lu Zelin suddenly said, “What if Yang Xiaotian isn’t an Acquired Realm practitioner?”
Hu Xing was taken aback, then shook his head, “You’re not suggesting Yang Xiaotian is an Innate Realm practitioner, are you? An Innate at eight years old?”
Lu Zelin too felt his earlier thought was absurd; Yang Xiaotian had only awakened his Martial Soul a few months ago, how could he possibly be an Innate Expert.
Even a Supreme Martial Spirit could not have such a cultivation speed..
