As Yang Xiaotian was cultivating the eighth Supreme Divine Technique, Long Zhi in the Sword Pavilion was practicing swordsmanship in the palace that had been arranged for him.
He swayed his sword while asking a few disciples from the academy standing in the distance, "Are you sure that kid is going to sign up for the Netherworld Corpse Sea trial?"
"According to the disciples from the Book Pavilion, the one surnamed Yang is very interested in the Netherworld Corpse Sea trial. He's been inquiring about it in the past few days and is likely to sign up," a disciple from the academy hurriedly replied from afar.
With a sweep of his sword, Long Zhi stirred up layers of sword waves that rolled incessantly. He let out a cold laugh, "If he really dares to participate, I'll make him just like this tree."
In the midst of the swirling sword waves, a towering tree in the distance was being continuously chopped away, sending a chaos of wood shavings flying through the air.
