"Damn, what kind of swordsmanship was that just now? Why have I never seen it before!"
"Cool, this move, Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect, is really cool. It's both elegant and sharp!"
"..."
On the spectator stand, a group of elders first looked at Sword King. Seeing the old guy's clueless expression, they then shifted their gaze to Chu Feng.
Swish! Chu Feng took out a folding fan from his waist and started to sway it, looking completely oblivious.
This kid is really putting on an act. The elders saw his appearance and knew that the swordsmanship must be related to Chu Feng.
Sword King gave Profound Fire Pill King a look, and the latter immediately understood: "Chu Feng, is the Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect just now really the unique knowledge of your miscellany courtyard? I've never heard of it before."
No one believed that the miscellany courtyard would have such a unique knowledge. After all, the miscellany courtyard has been silent in the Academy of the Dao for tens of thousands of years. If they really had such a unique knowledge, how could they not know about it? The miscellany courtyard wouldn't have fallen to this point either.
Therefore, they believed that this was Xiao Chen's own opportunity. After all, every prodigy is like this, suddenly obtaining opportunities that others can't get.
Chu Feng said with a smile, "Sort of. I previously said that I wrote a set of exercises for Xiao Chen, and it is this Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect. Isn't it good?"
As soon as the words fell, the elders immediately fell silent and looked at Chu Feng in astonishment.
Previously, everyone didn't take Chu Feng's words seriously. After all, each of their major courtyards had its own top-level inheritances. Chu Feng, a person without cultivation, even if he happened to create a set of exercises, couldn't be compared to the inheritances of their major courtyards.
However, the Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect that Xiao Chen used just now could definitely be regarded as a treasure of the courtyard, even among the top exercises.
"How did you come up with it?" Profound Fire Pill King asked curiously.
"I got inspiration from storybooks and made it up randomly." Chu Feng said seriously.
Fengyun is a comic, which is the storybook in this world. There's nothing wrong with that.
??? The elders looked at Chu Feng cluelessly, with the words "I don't believe it" written all over their faces.
Profound Fire Pill King said unhappily, "If you don't want to say it, you don't have to use such words to expound us."
Although the other elders didn't speak, they default the words of Sword King.
Chu Feng shrugged indifferently, "Didn't the elders forget the fact that Xiao Chen came to my miscellany courtyard as a disabled person? The exercises I customized for him are naturally for people who have lost all their cultivation to practice."
"That makes sense." Profound Fire Pill King thought that Sword King was being too much. He still wanted to hear more, but this old guy interrupted him.
Sword King also said, "Truly extraordinary people require extraordinary cultivation methods. Chu Feng, what are the special restrictions on this set of cultivation exercises?"
"Yes." Chu Feng said, "To practice this supreme unique knowledge, one must be a person with extraordinary talent in the path of the sword. Ordinary people with average talent simply cannot practice the Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect."
Hearing this, the elders immediately lost interest. What they wanted was a set of exercises that could be practiced by the vast majority of disciples.
Although the Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect looks very powerful now, not every prodigy has the courage to abolish their cultivation to practice this exercise.
Most importantly, no one knows what the upper limit of this exercise is. If it can only be practiced up to the Tianyuan Realm, then their talented disciples would suffer a great loss. After all, this exercise was written by an ordinary person without cultivation.
The crowd once again shifted their gaze to the arena to watch the semi-final match between Lin Qingyu and Mo Qingwu. Compared to the previous semi-final match, this one was a close match.
Mo Qingwu and Lin Qingyu both used their full strength. After an intense battle for an hour, they finally tapoff the winner. Lin Qingyu won by a narrow margin and advanced to the final.
However, he was also seriously injured. Thinking of Xiao Chen's fearful Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect just now, he felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart for the first time.
That sword was beyond his current ability to resist.
...
The next day. Xiao Chen defeated Lin Qingyu without any suspense and won the championship of the Outer Academy Grand Competition. After the competition ended.
Lin Qingyu left the arena in a state of utter dejection at the first opportunity. He had lost to Xiao Chen once again, which made him completely unacceptable.
Just as Lin Qingyu left the square, a cold voice rang out. "Qingyu, you have disappointed me greatly. A single defeat has made you lose confidence." Hearing this, Lin Qingyu raised his head and looked at the person, saying, "Master, I have failed your expectations."
"Humph!" The person was the Great Elder of the Sword Dao Academy. After he Cold hum, he sternly said, "Don't call me master. Now I give you two choices. One is to forget this battle and follow me to practice in the inner academy, where you will surely be able to defeat Xiao Chen in the future. The other is to choose another master in the inner academy after entering." Lin Qingyu's face changed slightly upon hearing this, but soon his eyes became resolute. "Disciple is willing to forget this battle. I believe that as long as I enter the inner academy to learn a stronger swordsmanship, I will definitely be able to defeat Xiao Chen."
"Good." The Great elder of the Sword Dao Academy nodded in satisfaction, "I will tell you a piece of news. The swordsmanship that Xiao Chen practices was created by the head of the miscellany courtyard. It may be useful in the outer academy, but in the inner academy, this swordsmanship is not worth mentioning, and you are still on the same starting line." Lin Qingyu's depression immediately vanished upon hearing this.
On the other side, after enjoying the cheers of the disciples, Xiao Chen went to the arena immediately to share this hard-earned good news with his master. But as soon as he stepped onto the arena, he was targeted by the gazes of the eight heads. "Disciple pays respects to master and everyone uncles."
"Rise." Sword King Xiaoyao said. If in the past, the disciples of the head of the miscellany courtyard had called them uncles, they would have directly slapped the disciple. However, they did not feel unhappy about Xiao Chen's address and instead became closer to him.
"Thank you, uncle." Xiao Chen said and walked straight to Chu Feng. "Master, I have won the championship." Chu Feng patted Xiao Chen's shoulder and said with a smile, "Well done. Let's go to the City of the Dao today to have a good drink and celebrate." Xiao Chen's face lit up with joy, "Disciple obeys." Chu Feng stood up and bowed to the crowd, "Fellow seniors, I take my leave."
"Hmm." The crowd did not keep Xiao Chen. Accepting disciples is not urgent. Let the master and disciple enjoy this happy moment first.
