Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 460

Chapter 460

Yeung Tin Hun reached out his hand and a silver shadow landed on his palm.

It was his Snow Glider, and he only launched an attack after some time. The attack was slow but mystical.

“Oh?” Sung Tsz Hin gasped softly. “No wonder Mister Cheuk views him so highly. It seems that he has grasped hold of the spear to its fullest extent.”

Yeung Tin Hun waved his spear casually without activating energliph, leaving afterimages behind.

The world that he came from had no energliph. He cultivated inner power back then, and the strongest power of all was the mysterious dogma that was on Yeung Tin Hun like a coat, helping him feel the operation of the world. However, he could not feel it anymore.

If he were to compare, he was more than a hundred times stronger in his previous life.

Yeung Tin Hun’s and Man Yee Ho's journey to the South was filled with life-threatening dangers. The journey helped Yeung Tin Hun realize that he could no longer feel the dogma that he used to.

So, he tried his best to recall the feeling and make use of it even today. He digested the dogma again to turn into his energy.

“This…” Wong Kei frowned. “His spear techniques…”

Sung Tsz Hin nodded in agreement. He was similarly surprised too. “...has a hint of the Heavenly Realm.”

It was difficult to explain the Heavenly Realm, but it was basically a realm that five-chambered and thousand-gliphic cultivators normally practised as it was the threshold for reaching the six-chambered and ten-thousand-gliphic state. By then, cultivators were no longer limited by cultivation and could become one with heaven and earth.

??????????????????????????????????????

Even after breaking through to the six-chambered state and having sufficient mental state, one might not be able to reach the state where they become one with heaven and earth.

Yet Yeung Tin Hun of the one-chambered state was able to achieve it slightly.

He would have a bright future considering that he managed to have a hint of it at such a low cultivation state.

Yeung Tin Hun walked out slowly in great ponderance.

Those outside knew nothing about the situation taking place inside. Even if they had the mental state of a thousand-chambered state, they were unable to sense the situation taking place inside. Thus, they naturally wouldn’t know about the fact that, as a one-chambered cultivator, Yeung Tin Hun had already touched the threshold to the six-chambered state.

“Next up, Man Yee Ho.”

Woo Nim announced calmly. She was similarly unaware of the situation going on in the classroom; all she had to do was announce their sequence. When Yeung Tin Hun passed by Man Yee Ho, he roughly told the other party his experience before the other made his way in.

“My best strength?”

Man Yee Ho sat in the middle of the room with an odd expression on his face. How am I supposed to show that I’m great at leading soldiers in war?

War? 

The thought of this gave Man Yee Ho an idea. The surprise swimming in his eyes changed into ecstasy within no time.

Right! Am I stupid?

Man Yee Ho flicked his finger, and countless weapons came flying out, hanging out in the middle of the air in sequence.

“What is he doing?” Now, even Sung Tsz Hin could not understand what was going on.

They might have been appalled by Yeung Tin Hun previously, but their focus was currently on Man Yee Ho. About twenty weapons were spinning in the air at a rapid speed.

“This…” Wong Kei spoke up hesitantly after pondering. “I had a strong impression of this teen. He knew nothing about Go, but he was kind of skillful when making use of strategy. Back then, I already felt that something was off.

“Now, looking at how the weapons change, I can roughly guess that it’s…

“Warcraft.”

“Huh? Warcraft?” All Cloud Palace disciples were knowledgeable cultivators who had heard about warcraft. Legend had it that, before the world was fully equipped with gliphism, humans could only battle with their mere strength, which led to the birth of warcraft.

With sufficient manpower, warcraft could help soldiers reach the highest efficiency. But after the appearance of gliphism, powerful gliphists were able to battle with gliphs, and warcraft slowly disappeared into history. During the past thousand years, the North and South fought with raw ability and no longer made use of different strategies.

The weapons moving in the air seemed simple, yet they had strong murderous intent like they were a huge army of soldiers when in fact only one person was controlling the gliph.

Man Yee Ho was fully absorbed in all that was going on in front of him, the mystical combination of warcraft and gliphism.

His gliph, the Thousand Weapons Tomb, was originally a mystical gliph that could be performed independently or in any combination. This mystical gliph allowed Man Yee Ho to not lose to any other gliphist despite not having broken through yet.

Now, under Man Yee Ho’s creativity, he used the weapon-looking gliph as soldiers, and under different combinations, the gliph seemed to come to life. He used many different strategies: flanking, feinting, defeating enemies, allowing the gliph to become extremely offensive.

“He’s in the process of enlightenment.” Wat Suen was a quiet girl, thus she rarely spoke, but when she did, it was an important point.

Sung Tsz Hin nodded. “Yes. It seems that the warcraft he’s good at complements his personal gliph.”

Yim Mo Chiu was hasty, thus she was starting to run out of patience. “So are we just going to wait for him to finish his enlightenment then?”

“Please don’t do anything Second Senior Sister! His warcraft has similarity with Go, and I can learn something from it by watching him!” Wong Kei spoke immediately after hearing Yim Mo Chiu. With that, he had his eyes fixated on the weapons dancing.

Excited, frowning, deep in thought, letting out soft sighs…

Watching Wong Kei’s reaction, Yim Mo Chiu said no more and accompanied him to wait for Man Yee Ho to finish.

The waiting time was so long that even the important figures were getting annoyed. During normal circumstances, a Cloud Trial wouldn’t take more than ten minutes, even for Yeung Tin Hun who was trying to understand the relationship between dogma and spearmanship in the room.

But Man Yee Ho had already spent more than two hours in the room.

Since the entire process started mid-afternoon, including the stages from the Cloud Palace disciples, it was now evening and the skies had already darkened.

Woo Nim lit up the area. However, she only offered the guests plain tea and no food. They were Cloud Palace after all, not an opera show that welcomed audiences. The enrollment was their internal matter; spectate and show concern all you like, but Cloud Palace would never treat the spectators like kings.

Man Yee Ho exited the classroom with moonlight shining down on the outer sect. A small smile was seen on his expressionless face as he knew this was the start of his success!
