“You said there’s a ten thousand tael bounty if I win. Is that true?”
“Naturally.”
Li Mo nodded, then humbly smiled, “You don’t need to worry about that. Ten thousand taels of gold is not difficult for me to produce.”
“Good, I’m taking this bounty!”
The burly man’s face was filled with excitement.
He had also just entered the One-Aperture of the Divine Intention. The Disciples of the Gangdou Sect practiced a slow-progressing body tempering technique, making their Physical Bodies exceptionally strong and famously good at fighting.
“Let me first observe his methods.”
Below the stage, Wu Chushu stared intently as the young man drew his sword with a smile.
He originally didn't pay much attention to Disciples from Sects like Qingyuan Sect, which were merely at the prefecture level.
However, there was already a ‘gem before him.’
He couldn't help but seriously observe Li Mo’s approach.
This arena finally seemed to be getting on track.
The Jianghu men and women, the spectators below, also turned their attention.
“In the picture book, whenever Jiang Chen was in danger, Liu Wuyan always came to save him.”
“This kid looks good, but I wonder how much skill he actually has.”
“No big deal, Li Dage is holding a sword.” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
“What’s wrong with a Swordsman holding a sword?”
“Dude, you really haven’t been to the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm.”
After the two on stage exchanged salutes.
Li Mo slowly drew his Chixiao Sword. The small figure in his Dantian glowed, and the divine patterns shone brightly.
He only activated his Yi Soul, not using any other methods.
A faint clear radiance floated around him.
The Chixiao Sword flickered, like a drunkard holding a branch, stabbing out without any discernible pattern, making many people frown.
This young man had such a good appearance, but his sword technique was simply an eyesore.
If it weren't for the fact that he was using a Mystic Weapon, this could hardly be called a sword technique.
Of course, this was only the thought of a few people.
This was Sword City, a former Holy Land of the Sword Dao.
There were many with Wisdom Eye.
“If it were me facing this sword...” Wu Chushu realized something was amiss and began to put himself in the situation.
“It actually has a hint of the Aura I observed from the Reflection Orb...”
The ordinary-looking Huang Donglai touched the orb in his In arms, his eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Zhong Zhenyue, and the Elders on the stage, also narrowed their gazards.
However.
None of their perceptions were as direct as the burly man’s.
He only felt bewildered now.
Because that seemingly flawed and unremarkable sword, the only correct thing about it was that it pointed directly at his weakness.
Even he himself hadn’t known before that his opening Move had such a flaw.
What was even more bizarre was that changing his Move was useless.
As soon as his Move changed, the sword again aimed at his newly revealed weakness.
“Whew... I don’t care anymore!”
The burly man decided not to hesitate any longer. If there was a flaw, then so be it!
He would break skill with brute force!
He twisted his halberd, Qi condensing, and thrust it forward with intense Killing Intent.
This was a Move from the Gangdou Sect’s superior Martial Arts that he had practiced thousands of times daily.
It was as swift as lightning, with not many variations, but it was sufficiently condensed.
He learned this from Tie Qi.
After Tie Dage returned from the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm, not only were his physical defects mended, but his Martial Arts Comprehension also advanced to a higher level. He said it was because he had observed an extremely powerful Hammer Technique, thus gaining some insight.
This insight was also passed on to him.
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, what a ferocious halberd technique.
“It has a bit of the Aura of Settling Thunder Extremity, and it also incorporates the Gangdou Sect’s weapon killing technique, not bad.”
The young man's voice made him slightly stunned.
The sword technique was even more incomprehensible.
The Chixiao Sword was like an antelope hanging its horns, leaving no trace, and at an extremely strange angle, it touched the weak point of the halberd.
Instantly, the heavy and swift Aura stagnated.
It was like dark clouds that had gathered for a long time, thunder had struck, but in the end, no rain fell.
According to the agreed-upon point-to-stop, this was basically the end, and Li Mo did not pursue.
“You have seven flaws.”
“Again!”
After adjusting his breath, the burly man’s expression turned serious, and he swung his weapon to meet him again.
He also held back his strength, focusing on Martial Arts.
“Your halberd technique is powerful but lacks weight.”
“The true Settling Thunder Extremity, though it appears swift, is still a Dao of heavy slowness.”
The young man wielded his sword, relaxed and at ease.
While striking with his sword, he also pointed out the opponent's shortcomings.
It was still a sword without a set pattern, yet he wielded it with an air of elegant detachment.
The crowd below fell into a daze.
This was not a martial arts competition; it was clearly a lesson.
Earlier, they thought the young man’s sword technique was crude, because it didn’t create any earth-shattering commotion. It followed the Dao of returning to simplicity, and their understanding was insufficient, thus they couldn’t comprehend its profound mysteries.
After all, the burly man’s standard, placed at this summit, was considered mid-tier.
However, in front of Li Mo, he had no power to contend directly.
“Li Dage... is... truly amazing.”
Jiang Chulong hugged the peach branch, her little heart beating very fast.
Even she felt a resonance with the core principle of this sword technique, a feeling of mutual admiration.
It seemed to have a similar effect to her teacher's guidance on the Wild Grass Sword Scripture...
“Taiyin...”
Ying Bing looked at the young man swinging his sword, lost in thought for a moment.
She had known this sword technique for a long time.
What made her lose herself in thought was that familiar Aura.
Why did his Yi Soul contain the Divine Intention of Taiyin?
They had spent time together, and she knew him well, apart from the Divine Intention he observed.
Could the System have determined her combat power was below Li Mo’s because of the Divine Intention?
But that was even stranger!
How could Li Mo observe Taiyin?!
...
On the high platform.
“Yi Jian Shu (Chess Sword Technique) of Tianshan Sword Manor?”
“No, I’ve experienced Yi Jian Shu (Chess Sword Technique) before, it’s definitely not like this.”
“Is he walking the path of skill close to the Dao?”
“This...”
The gray-haired Elders of Sword City did not bang on the table this time, although they had already replaced their tables.
Besides surprise, they felt more complexity.
To exhaust the principles of the Sword Dao.
Which of those present hadn't once been a Sword Dao Genius, who wasn't amazingly talented, overpowering all other swordsmen.
However, this path, the more of a Genius one was, the more despairing it became.
The more one understood, the more one realized their own ignorance.
Though Immortals were ethereal, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths once existed.
But the path of skill close to the Dao, no one had ever completed it.
“Oh, right.” free𝑤ebnovel.com
“Hmm?”
“What’s going on with Qingyuan Sect? Did their ancestral graves smoke green?”
...
The sparring, or rather, the guidance on the arena, was now nearing its end.
The burly man withdrew his halberd and bowed respectfully:
“Thank you for your guidance, I have benefited greatly!”
“It was just a convenient thing, and I didn’t lose out either.”
Li Mo humbly held his sword and smiled.
While guiding the opponent, he also incorporated the opponent’s techniques into Dugu Nine Swords, transforming them into his own.
Hmm... this step also cost Martial Arts Comprehension.
Once accumulated to a certain extent, it’s time to go further!
It’s hard to say who benefited more.
“Take it.”
Li Mo, according to his promise, took out a gold note.
“No, no, I have received the grace of your teaching, how can I...”
“What has been said must ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) naturally be done. This small amount of money is nothing.”
“This...”
The burly man looked at the young man’s smile, at his demeanor, and then recalled his Senior Brother’s description of a certain person.
Handsome and dashing, regarding money as dirt, helping others tirelessly...
“Are you perhaps from the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm...”
“Shh, I am a Swordsman now.”
“Big Brother, I bow to you!”
...
Not far away.
Wu Chushu wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He then looked at Bai Jinghong and Cao Mu.
