"Maybe it's because my senior brother didn't perform well..."
Amidst whispers, the team advanced quickly. Most of them came out with lost expressions, and only a few disciples came out with happy faces.
About half an hour later, it was finally Xiang Sheng's turn.
As soon as she stepped over the high threshold and entered the hall, the Fifth Elder could no longer sit still. He immediately left the disciples around him and personally led Xiang Sheng to a stone wall, not hiding his enthusiasm at all.
Xiang Sheng clearly saw that the young disciple standing behind the fifth elder seemed to be accustomed to his master's usual behavior, but he still couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"Xiao Sheng'er, come...put your hands on this stone wall."
The Fifth Elder's tone was so gentle that it could squeeze water out of her. Xiang Sheng felt goosebumps when he heard it. He immediately took a step back and said, "Fifth Elder, I can do it myself."
The Fifth Elder's hand froze in mid-air, and the young man standing behind him couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The fifth elder turned around and gave his disciple a fierce look. When he turned around again, he saw Xiang Sheng had already placed his hand on the stone wall, and gently exhaled his true energy, emitting a white light.
"Third level of Qi training? Great!"
The fifth elder clapped his hands and laughed with satisfaction. This little girl broke through two levels in a row within a month. It seemed that she had not been lazy at all.
Thinking of this, the Fifth Elder said, "Xiao Sheng'er, cultivation also requires a balance between work and rest. If you have some free time, why not go out for a walk with your mother?"
When other disciples came to him, they would inevitably give him some admonitions and encouragement, but Xiang Sheng was too obedient and practiced so hard that she forgot to eat and sleep. He was really afraid that the little girl would exhaust herself.
"I understand, Fifth Elder."
Xiang Sheng responded crisply and turned to leave the hall.
The Fifth Elder watched anxiously, and the young man behind him said unhappily, "Master, stop looking. Little Sheng'er has already disappeared."
The fifth elder sighed, "It's all that damn Xuan Feng's fault. Why are you arguing with me? If this girl could just call me Master, my life would be worth it."
"Junior Brother Jian Jue, you said the same thing at that time."
The young man picked his ear and said with a gloating tone, "Now it's Junior Sister Luo Zhen's turn. I don't think there's any hope for you, Master."
The Fifth Elder was poured cold water by his disciple and sighed, "Aren't you just looking for a junior brother or sister to keep you company? You are my only disciple, it's quite lonely."
The young man curled his lips and said, "Master, please continue. I want to go back and continue my training."
"No respect for elders or younger children."
The Fifth Elder reprimanded him, but his words did not contain any blame. He turned around and sat down again, coughing softly into his fist, "Next."
…
Crash——
The moonlight leaked like mercury on the edge of the pool. Xiang Jianjue struggled to climb ashore, gasped for breath a few times, and simply lay on the shore with his head tilted back. His whole body was sore and extremely tired.
He moved stones for a whole day and night before he built a foundation half a meter square. At this rate, even if he didn't sleep for three days and three nights, he would not be able to meet the master's requirements.
what to do?
Thoughts flashed through Xiang Jianjue's mind one after another. He suddenly gritted his teeth, got up, took out an axe from his storage ring, and rushed into the forest.
Don't waste time.
If you can't think of a solution, just keep thinking while chopping down trees.
Trees fell one after another in the forest, the darkness gradually faded away, and the morning sun came into being.
Xiang Jianjue was still busy chopping trees until Xiang Sheng came over in the evening and was secretly surprised to see the neatly arranged timber on the shore.
This guy looks like he has a bad character, but he actually doesn't seem that bad.
After sensing a hint of sword intent and confirming that Xiang Jian was definitely not cheating, Xiang Sheng stopped caring about it, sat down cross-legged, and entered into a state of meditation.
The next day, Xiang Sheng "obediently" accepted the advice of the Fifth Elder and stopped breathing in and out of his inner breath. Instead, he stayed in the courtyard to practice swordsmanship.
The sword is a wooden sword, and the sword techniques are taken from an ordinary sword manual in the Sutra Library.
Luo Qingyun rarely watched her daughter during the day, so she stayed by the yard to watch Xiang Sheng practice sword skills, never leaving his side.
In her eyes, the sword techniques described in this sword manual were mediocre and standard, with really no highlights.
However, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. As a mother, Luo Qingyun felt so relieved when she saw her daughter practicing sword skills so hard that her ordinary sword skills became extraordinary, and she applauded from time to time.
As she watched, the relief in Luo Qingyun's eyes gradually became strange, and then she couldn't help but wipe her eyes and look again.
Not an illusion?
She pursed her lips and looked intently at her daughter's dancing figure in the courtyard, feeling a little guilty and confused.
How come this sword technique seems to have become so agile and extraordinary in Sheng'er's hands?
