Pressing his stomach, Yuan Feiyu, who had always been strong, maintained his composure.
He said to Wu Manshuang in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Wu, it would be bad if you just dismantled the sword formation. And I can't let you pass if you do that."
After all, all the disciples who had climbed the Sword Peak and passed through the sword formation before had done so in one go.
There has never been a precedent of breaking down the whole into parts by “walking one-tenth today” and “walking another one-tenth tomorrow”.
This is like a person's meal consists of four steamed buns. Can he eat one steamed bun every day and declare that he is full on the fourth day?
There is no such thing in the world!
After listening to Yuan Feiyu's words, Wu Manshuang showed a thoughtful look on her face.
After a moment, he held the remains of the sword array in both hands and half squatted down, just in time to avoid a sword force that was brushing his scalp. He then installed the materials that he had dismantled with his bare hands back with his bare hands.
After doing this, Wu Manshuang dodged the sword array at lightning speed, not letting the repaired sword array touch her skin at all.
This series of alert, swift, and textbook-style dodging moves was even more naive than a little bastard. Yuan Feiyu was stunned.
Wu Manshuang raised her head slightly, put her two extremely destructive and ruthless iron hands behind her back, and asked politely:
"Brother Xiao Yuan, do you think this is okay now?"
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Judging from his appearance and voice alone, this wizard brother is such a well-mannered, sensible and polite child.
But considering what he just did... this is clearly a case of acting without preparation, and he really deserves a beating!
Yuan Feiyu took a breath and reluctantly replied, "...Okay, okay."
Wu Manshuang maintained his polite appearance and took advantage of the situation in a gentle and courteous manner.
"Then, Senior Brother Xiao Yuan, I can also use this method to break the formation? - Don't worry, Senior Brother, I will put it back after I break it."
He has not yet learned how to set up this kind of sword formation.
Once he has passed this golden elixir sword formation, won't he have completely mastered the skill of setting up a sword formation?
Moreover, Yan Luoyue was in need of supplementary attack formations. Once he had learned the essence of different sword formations, he could share all these experiences with her.
Yuan Feiyu was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "What if I say no?"
Wu Manshuang thought about it and replied in a very peaceful voice: "Then I won't demolish it. I'll just live at the foot of the mountain for three months and then leave."
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Hey man, you are such a jerk.
This time, Senior Brother Xiao Yuan felt that the throbbing pain in his stomach seemed to become more intense.
He waved his hand and said hastily, "Go ahead, go ahead..."
"Thank you, Brother Xiao Yuan."
Wu Manshuang thanked him, lowered her head and smiled, the curve of her lips even looked a little shy.
Then, he turned around and rushed towards the golden elixir sword formation.
Then, Wu Manshuang dismantled the Jindan-stage sword formation with his bare hands, using a brave method that was completely contrary to his size and temperament.
Soon, the entrance to the sword formation was shattered into pieces, like a corpse-dismemberment tragedy.
The key is that every time Wu Manshuang takes a step forward, she pauses.
Once he realized that the sword wind was different and might hurt him, he jumped up and ran back without hesitation!
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Very good! The little wizard's awareness of safety really opened his eyes.
This is not an ordinary heart, this is an enterprising heart, a heart with a strategic perspective, a heart with an organized, planned and purposeful overall view!
Yan Luoyue comforted him, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Xiaoyuan. Even though Manshuang has dismantled the sword formation, he will put it back the same way."
Yuan Feiyu shook his head sadly.
"Junior Sister Yan, among the two of you, you are the senior sister, right?"
"nice."
Yuan Feiyu gave Yan Luoyue a look full of suggestion: "Look at this scene... Junior Sister Yan, don't you have any ideas?"
Yan Luoyue couldn't help but smile.
——Swordsmen are so adorable. They even hint so bluntly.
Therefore, Yan Luoyue’s answer is of course...
"No." Yan Luoyue looked at Senior Brother Xiao Yuan innocently, "Well, if I have to say what I think...Man Shuang's behavior today gave me a lot of inspiration."
"If a Lego building block is released, it will probably be very popular in the cultivation world."
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Suddenly, he understood why this pair of junior brother and sister were of similar age, but Yan Luoyue was the senior sister and Wu Manshuang was the junior brother.
It turns out that this is the legendary "the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked"...
Just like that, Wu Manshuang and Yan Luoyue temporarily stayed at the foot of Jianfeng Mountain.
Wu Manshuang would go to dismantle the sword formation during the day... Bah, no, she is familiar with it.
At the beginning, Yuan Feiyu stayed with Wu Manshuang closely, fulfilling his duty as a disciple of the Dharma.
But later, Yuan Feiyu quickly discovered that such protection was unnecessary.
Because Junior Brother Wu really...really protects himself very well.
What was even more infuriating was that when the training on dismantling the sword formation in one go reached the afternoon of the second day, Wu Manshuang tried to get Yuan Feiyu out of the way in a tactful way.
He asked, "Brother Xiao Yuan, have you not had time to practice your 36,000 swords today?"
——Go practice swordplay quickly. Don’t you still want to catch up with Senior Brother Jiang?
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Don't mention the pot that's not open!
What Yuan Feiyu didn't know was that as the sword formation became increasingly difficult, Wu Manshuang felt that he might face the threat of bleeding.
That's why he couldn't let Yuan Feiyu accompany him.
If he was the only one in the sword array, then a little blood would not be a problem. He immediately dismantled the nearby sword array and cleaned up the bloodstains so as not to harm innocent people.
But if Yuan Feiyu was also in the sword formation and was accidentally splashed with blood...
That would be a really bad thing.
In short, Yuan Feiyu, who was unaware of the inside story, was angrily deprived of the right to accompany his junior wizard brother, and was currently sitting at the foot of the mountain with Yan Luoyue.
This Junior Sister Xiaoyan was not a worry either. She spoke sharply and stabbed Yuan Feiyu in the heart as soon as she opened her mouth.
Yan Luoyue asked: "Brother Xiaoyuan, you want to surpass Brother Jiang. Is it because you are not convinced by his sword will, or because you are not convinced by Brother Jiang taking the dividends?"
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Under Yan Luoyue's gaze, the proud and arrogant young swordsman's face gradually turned red.
He stuttered a little as he said, "Only the swordsman who is unstoppable is the strongest. Of course, I have an opinion on Jiang Tingbai because of the dispute in swordsmanship."
Yan Luoyue blinked: Are you sure?
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
With a snort, Senior Brother Xiao Yuan turned his head away and whispered, "Of course, there are other personal reasons..."
This personal reason has nothing to do with ticket profit sharing, but it has a lot to do with the Da Dao Qing Tian Monument.
The reason is actually very simple: as a typical middle school boy, Yuan Feiyu, like all the disciples of Jianfeng, has a dream of engraving his name on the Great Dao Qingtian Monument.
But since Jianfeng had already suffered a loss at the hands of Jiang Tingbai, he would definitely be wary of this kind of fraud.
They will not suffer the same loss a second time.
Therefore, every disciple who approaches the Great Dao Qingtian Monument can only leave a sword mark on it.
Everything except the sword mark - whether it is poetry, famous quotes, abstract paintings or "xxx was here" - will be fined by Jianfeng.
The fine was so high that no disciple wanted to try.
A disciple from Jianfeng once questioned this phenomenon - Yan Luoyue judged from Yuan Feiyu's tone that the disciple who raised the question was most likely himself.
The disciple asked: "Why can Jiang Tingbai do this?"
Jianfeng replied: "Jiang Tingbai was just trying to comprehend the sword's meaning, so it was understandable. I'll just carve it, and I won't make an exception next time."
Jianfeng replied: "The most important thing is that his sword spirit has brought Jianfeng ticket revenue."
The disciple: “…”
After telling this story, Yuan Feiyu still looked angry:
"I also want to leave my name on the Great Dao Qingtian Monument! Isn't it just about generating revenue from ticket sales? Are just five spirit stones really that important?"
Hearing him say this, Yan Luoyue suddenly remembered the wishes she heard from the sword practitioners in the pen washing pool.
Yan Luoyue: “…”
She couldn't guarantee it in other places, but in Jianfeng, she felt that the five spirit stones were quite important.
With a light cough, Yan Luoyue decided to do something to make Senior Brother Xiao Yuan happy.
She pointed at Yuan Feiyu's sword and said, "Brother Yuan, let me take care of your sword."
Yuan Feiyu pricked up his ears and looked at her warily: "How much is it? Is it charged in stages? They won't just quote the unit price at the beginning and then charge the package price when you pay, right?"
...Looking at this posture, it is obvious that she has been cheated by the charging systems of illegal beauty salons, bah, illegal sword maintenance shops many times.
Yan Luoyue shed tears for the sword practitioners in her heart while smoothing over Yuan Feiyu.
"Senior Brother Xiao Yuan has taken good care of me and Man Shuang along the way. How could I accept money from him?"
The arrogant young man murmured, "Then you should at least call me Senior Brother Dayuan" as he handed his sword to Yan Luoyue.
When it comes to sword maintenance, a poorer sword repairer would prepare grease and silk for his beloved sword.
Ordinary poor sword practitioners, such as the disciples of Guiyuan Sect's Sword Peak, would ask the weapon refiner to re-forge the long sword.
The recycling here certainly does not mean recycling for re-refining.
Only through some weapon-making techniques and materials can the tiny scratches on the blade be filled, the long sword be made shiny as new, and the tiny impurities accumulated in the blade be refined.
After being maintained by the best sword maintainer, the blade will be as bright as a mirror and as sharp as a flying arrow, as if just looking at it is enough to hurt one's eyes.
In addition, you can also match various formations to add breathing lights, cool patterns, custom colors and other skin effects to the sword.
This set of maintenance can be said to be flawless.
It is precious. Very precious. Extremely precious.
A maintenance session would cost at least a hundred spirit stones - and that would have to be during promotional periods when the store was offering a discount.
For sword masters who regard swords as their spiritual partner, taking their beloved sword through a set of top-level maintenance can be said to be the ultimate dream of every sword master!
Yuan Feiyu said decisively: "Its expensiveness is not its shortcoming, it is my shortcoming."
Yan Luoyue: “…”
Yan Luoyue touched his forehead for the common characteristics of sword practitioners, coughed lightly, and pulled out Yuan Feiyu's sword from the stove.
"How is it, Senior Brother Xiao Yuan, is this the effect of the top-level maintenance package you mentioned before?"
"!!!"
Yuan Feiyu stared at his beloved sword with wide eyes, almost not caring about answering Yan Luoyue's question.
His beloved spiritual sword was forged by Yan Luoyue and remained as bright as new.
The cold sword body exudes a chilling light, just like the frozen surface of a river in the cold winter. The sword blade, which has been tempered a thousand times, can cut through anything in its path, and the frost-like white blade can easily cut through any obstacle in front of it.
Yan Luoyue also added: "I did a polish at the end... Actually it doesn't matter if you don't do it, but after polishing, the visual effect will be more sparkling."
This is true.
At least at this moment, Yuan Feiyu could hardly take his eyes off his sword.
This is his beloved sword that he is so proud of, his most beloved wife!
Not that the sword wasn't beautiful once upon a time.
A sword cultivator's sword is always the most precious thing in their heart.
But there is definitely a difference between a wife who dresses up carefully to attend a banquet and a wife who usually doesn't put on makeup, doesn't wash her face, and doesn't have time to wipe off the blood all over her body.
Yuan Feiyu heard a "slurp" sound.
Three seconds later, he realized that the sound actually came from his own mouth.
Carefully taking over his beloved sword, Yuan Feiyu finally understood what it meant to be reunited after a short absence.
With a hint of embarrassment, Yuan Feiyu said, "In their set meal... they can also make different patterns on the sword body."
"Oh, this business falls under the purview of the law."
Yan Luoyue pondered for a moment: "It's not difficult, I can do it myself, but still..."
She waved to Wu Manshuang, who was returning with a full load, with parts scattered all over the ground behind her: "Manshuang, how about making a pattern for Senior Brother Xiaoyuan's sword?"
This little thing was no big deal to Wu Man Shuang.
Wu Manshuang quickly walked forward and casually drew a few strokes on Yuan Feiyu's sword, and the blade of the long sword began to flash and change into neon light.
If it were put in modern times, this revolving light special effect would definitely be rated as "straight men's favorite mechanical keyboard breathing light 3".
This small formation was just a casual creation of Wu Manshuang and it would fall off automatically in a few days.
In view of the above characteristics, Yan Luoyue held up her chin and looked at Senior Brother Xiao Yuan's sword, and suddenly felt that it looked a little familiar.
——By the way, she is responsible for polishing and base application, while Wu Manshuang is responsible for creating the pattern effect. Isn’t this equivalent to manicure in another sense!
With a thought, Yan Luoyue suddenly saw a new business opportunity.
She raised her head, looked at Senior Brother Xiao Yuan, and said sincerely, "Senior Brother Xiao Yuan, are there any other disciples in Jianfeng who want to join the maintenance package? Please introduce them to me!"
…
Seven days later, at the foot of Jianfeng.
Upon learning that there was a maintenance stall offering high-quality and low-priced goods here, sword repairmen spontaneously lined up in a long queue.
Yan Luoyue was sitting behind the stall with a smile on her face, with a big sign in front of her that read "Limited time special offer, a set of top-level maintenance for five spirit stones! Rounded off to almost free!"
At this moment, Wu Manshuang was sitting side by side with Yan Luoyue.
They each took charge of the polishing and patterning of the sword.
The remuneration was divided equally between the two. In Yan Luoyue's words, Wu Manshuang's investment was in the form of technology.
Apart from this, Yan Luoyue also had some personal selfish motives.
Over a year had passed, and Wu Man Shuang had changed from someone who only dared to look at her secretly in the beginning and couldn't help but pull down the hood of his hoodie when in crowded places, to someone who was now a little talkative.
Now that Wu Man Shuang was walking among the crowd, she no longer considered herself to be the source of death.
Then, Yan Luoyue couldn't help but want to push him in front of everyone.
——Look, the little snake I kidnapped instead of buying is now a superb one!
The skin care business that Yan Luoyue wanted to do was naturally not a small stall like this.
However, since the market was still under investigation at the early stage, she personally went out to investigate.
In the process of swordplay, you will encounter some small surprises from time to time.
Some sword masters have a very unique and advanced aesthetic.
For example, an eight-foot-tall burly senior brother asked Wu Manshuang to make a pink heart-shaped glowing luminous special effect on his beloved sword.
Wu Manshuang: “…”
Yan Luoyue nodded repeatedly: "Good choice! This is the effect that a tough guy should have when he draws his sword!"
Seeing that Yan Luoyue's mouth was as sweet as honey, the sword cultivators all laughed.
Some sword cultivators couldn't help but confide their true feelings: "Junior Sister Yan, you really don't look like Uncle Ji's disciple - but you do look like Senior Brother Jiang's junior sister."
The swordsman who spoke the truth was soon hit by the sister behind him.
After a period of stall career, Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang earned a very good reputation in Jianfeng.
There were even a few times when Yan Luoyue heard people whispering in the team.
They whispered to each other, wondering whether Ji Qinghong's acceptance of the pair of disciples was the only time in thousands of years that he felt guilty.
Yan Luoyue: “…”
Yuan Feiyu, who also heard the same discussion, hesitated to speak.
These fellow brothers and sisters have obviously been bribed by Junior Sister Yan and Junior Brother Wu with their expensive care and deceived by their cute appearance.
As for Yuan Feiyu himself...his eyes have seen too much so far.
It brings tears to my eyes just talking about it.
Wu Manshuang dismantled the sword formation with her bare hands every day, and reassembled and dismantled the Jindan period sword formation.
Because he would reassemble the sword formation to its original state every time at the end, Yuan Feiyu never said anything.
Until last night, Wu Manshuang was only one step away from removing the last piece of the sword formation and reaching the top of the mountain——!!!
At the foot of the mountain, Yuan Feiyu, who was practicing sword, looked at Wu Manshuang's back from afar, and a sense of excitement arose in his heart.
However, in the next second, Wu Manshuang not only did not dismantle the last sword formation, he also pushed the previous sword formation back!
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Under Yuan Feiyu's puzzled gaze, Wu Manshuang flicked the corner of her clothes and retreated very calmly.
Yuan Feiyu didn't understand: Why?
Clearly, Junior Brother Wizard is only one step away from breaking through the sword formation and ending this round of communication.
Hearing this question, Wu Manshuang looked at Yuan Feiyu with respect.
He asked in a tone that sounded like he was asking for advice, but in fact he had already made up his mind: "Brother Xiao Yuan, can I go and dismantle... break into that sword formation?"
Yuan Feiyu followed Wu Manshuang's finger and saw: Oh my goodness, he was pointing at the Yuanying Sword Formation next door!
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
At this moment, the stomachache that had become familiar to him once again entangled Yuan Feiyu's fragile internal organs.
"...Brother Wu, what are you going to do?"
Wu Manshuang half lowered her head and answered very humbly: "My life is limited, but my learning is limitless."
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
So, you've completely treated our Sword Peak as a training ground, right?
For the first time in his life, Yuan Feiyu felt that the three-month Dharma transmission and exchange period was not a good idea.
——When the seniors established this rule, did they guess that there would be such an exchange disciple who would dismantle all of Jianfeng's formations?
Wu Manshuang smiled a little sheepishly and added, "Actually, it's not just dismantling it. I also made some minor upgrades and improvements to the sword formation."
"Huh?"
Wu Manshuang rushed to the golden elixir sword formation beside him and made a "please" gesture.
"If Senior Brother Xiao Yuan is interested, you can try this new formation."
After looking at Wu Manshuang with half belief and half doubt, Yuan Feiyu stepped into the newly modified formation.
He took a step forward, and the pressure from the sword formation did not change at all.
Yuan Feiyu took another step forward——!
Almost at the moment when he landed, the sword array that was originally only going to attack head-on suddenly became more powerful.
The swift and sharp sword energy attacked Yuan Feiyu from all directions!
hiss--
The power of the sword array is now almost four times that of before!
Yuan Feiyu quickly summoned up the sword energy to repel the sword force and withdrew from the sword formation.
He looked intently at Wu Manshuang.
The face of this junior fellow was filled with a humble expression that said, "I just did some insignificant work, it's not worth mentioning."
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
In the following days, from time to time, the howling of sword practitioners could be heard from the Jindan Sword Formation.
Some were ecstatic:
"What? The power of the sword formation has been enhanced! Hahahaha, great, enemies on all sides, this is the challenge we sword cultivators should face."
Some people are competing with each other:
“Hmm—”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you're not good enough. How come you got injured after only walking 248 steps?"
"Don't be complacent. Let's see who walks more in the future."
More voices came from the anger of many low-level swordsmen:
"Damn it, the elders are too partial. We, the foundation-building sword formation, also want to be renovated?!"
…
In order to ensure efficiency, Wu Manshuang did not modify the sword formation during the Yuanying period when dismantling it.
After learning about this, Yuan Feiyu felt very sorry.
He asked Wu Manshuang, "Junior Brother Wu, why didn't you transform when you passed through the Yuanying Sword Formation?"
Could it be that he was affected by his previous attitude and hurt the little soul of the wizard brother who couldn't bear to see even blood?
If that's the case, then Yuan Feiyu should apologize to Junior Brother Wu now!
However, what Yuan Feiyu never expected was that after hearing his question, Wu Manshuang looked at him with a little surprise, and then smiled slightly.
"Why would Senior Brother Xiao Yuan think so?"
Wu Manshuang rolled up her sleeves calmly and said, "I just think... this Jindan sword formation should be left for everyone to try for free. If Jianfeng is interested, you can come to me to discuss the cost of modifying other sword formations."
Yuan Feiyu: “…Oh.”
It turns out that it is a long-term plan to catch big fish.
He was wondering why Junior Brother Wu, after breaking through the Yuanying Sword Formation, turned around and broke through the Foundation Building Sword Formation and the Qi Refining Sword Formation.
It turns out that Wu Man Shuang is planning a comprehensive transformation design for the sword formation!
Yuan Feiyu took a breath, and instead of looking at the rising Sleeping Dragon, he turned his gaze to another Luo Luo Feng Feng Chu.
Yan Luoyue was seen holding a peculiarly shaped rectangular cabinet and moving a few steps, placing it at the place where one must pass when going down the mountain from the Yuan Infant Sword Formation.
Yan Luoyue made a total of eight similar "big cabinets".
At the foot of the mountain for the Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Golden Elixir and Yuanying Sword formations, she placed two on each path.
Yuan Feiyu asked Junior Sister Xiaoyan, this "big cabinet" is called an automatic sword maintenance vending machine.
Through previous market research, Yan Luoyue successfully summarized the ten most popular sword special effects among sword practitioners.
From now on, sword practitioners who want to do maintenance, just need to put ten spirit stones into the machine, click on the special effects package on the screen, and they can do a set of top-notch maintenance for their beloved sword!
The sword practitioners were all very happy about this news.
Especially when they found out that the transformation of the Golden Core Sword Formation was originally done by Wu Manshuang, Junior Sister Xiaoyan and Junior Brother Xiaowu suddenly became the most welcome guests of Jianfeng in recent times.
The sword cultivators said again from the bottom of their hearts: "Junior Sister Yan, Junior Brother Wu, you really don't look like disciples of Uncle Ji!"
Yuan Feiyu: “…”
Yuan Feiyu actually wants to ask everyone, where do you know this from?
——Their idea of making money by taking advantage of every opportunity, could it be that they are exactly the disciples of Uncle Ji? !
…
In short, after experiencing the above changes, the three-month exchange period finally ended.
Wu Manshuang felt that this was not all she wanted.
On the day when the exchange period ended, Wu Manshuang was dismantling the Divine Transformation Stage sword formation.
He demolished the entire way up the mountain, dismembering the Spiritualization Stage's sword formation until only the last step remained.
At this moment, at the entrance of the Spiritual Transformation Sword Formation, where only one person passes through it once a year on average, Elder Xia, who had been in seclusion for twenty years, suddenly appeared.
“…”
Elder Xia and Wu Manshuang looked at each other in surprise.
Elder Xia leaned over Wu Man Shuang's shoulder and looked at the dazzling array of formation debris behind him. His expression suddenly became very strange.
Because of this incident, the originally scheduled exchange and discussion between the disciples of the Zhen Dao Sect and Jian Feng was forced to be cancelled.
While Yan Luoyue was competing with Yuan Feiyu, Wu Manshuang not only could not watch the fight, but also had to work overtime and was responsible for repairing the formation of the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Wu Manshuang: “…”
He quietly pulled Yan Luoyue's sleeves in private, and Yan Luoyue and Wu Manshuang understood each other tacitly.
They could guess that the so-called destruction of the Divine Transformation Stage sword formation and being detained to repair the formation during the sparring session should be just an excuse.
Most likely, Ji Qinghong revealed Wu Manshuang's special physique to the top management of Jianfeng.
The sword cultivator's attack is swift and fierce, and blood is often drawn as soon as the sword is unsheathed.
Yuan Feiyu specializes in the way of the sword, which makes him unsuitable to be Wu Manshuang's opponent.
In order to prevent some unpleasant accidents from happening, Wu Manshuang was cleverly removed from the sparring list.
Yuan Feiyu felt a little regretful about not being able to compete with Wu Manshuang, but not that much.
After all, Junior Brother Wizard has a rather delicate personality, a fragile heart, and can't even stand the sight of blood.
Therefore, it is better for him not to hurt his fellow wizard.
In comparison, Junior Sister Dayan, who fully demonstrates the uniqueness of the Turtle Clan, is a very good opponent!
Before the competition began, Yuan Feiyu told Yan Luoyue in advance: "Junior Sister Yan, I will cooperate with your cultivation and suppress my own cultivation to the middle stage of foundation building."
"This competition is exactly what Yuan had hoped for. I respect you, Junior Sister, and I will not hold back. I also ask you not to hide your moves, but to use all your strength - I want to see your strongest ability."
Yan Luoyue: “…”
After hearing Yuan Feiyu's request, she remained silent for nearly half a minute.
It was not until Senior Brother Xiao Yuan looked at him with a strange look that Yan Luoyue closed her eyes reluctantly and asked in a very strange tone: "Senior Brother Xiao Yuan, are you sure?"
Yuan Feiyu said firmly, "I am sure."
Yan Luoyue emphasized again: "My most powerful ability is not to refine weapons... The consequences may be difficult to imagine, Brother Xiaoyuan, are you really sure?"
Yuan Feiyu said: "I'm sure!"
"...Okay." Yan Luoyue said sadly, "Since you asked for it."
…
On the day of the duel between the two, according to the custom of Guiyuan Sect, all the peak masters were present, and the number of people who came was exceptionally full.
In fact, generally speaking, for such competitions between disciples, it is rare for the peak master to attend in person unless the peak master has a particularly good or close relationship with the disciples.
Everyone either returned a visiting card or sent their disciples to attend on their behalf.
But this time is different - the one who is teaching and exchanging the Dharma this time is Ji Qinghong’s disciple!
Even for this reason alone, it is worth putting aside the tedious tasks at hand and coming here to watch a game!
In the center of the viewing platform, Ji Qinghong and the leader of Jianfeng Peak sat on the left and right.
The two were talking cordially and friendly.
Some of the peak masters were curious about what the two were talking about, so they pricked up their ears to listen carefully.
Then he discovered that it was Ji Qinghong who was contracting the new business of transforming the sword formation for his young apprentice.
The head of Jianfeng Peak suddenly realized: "The free modification of the Golden Core Sword Formation was originally intended for this purpose!"
Ji Qinghong smiled but said nothing.
After taking a deep look at Ji Qinghong, the head of Jianfeng Peak had a solemn expression.
——Sure enough, Ji Qinghong’s little snake disciple has learned a lot from Ji Qinghong, and his thinking is almost identical to Ji Qinghong’s.
Looking at the entire Turnip Peak, only Jiang Tingbai and the little girl from the Turtle Clan have trustworthy character.
The Sword Peak Master held this view until the battle began.
As Yan Luoyue and Yuan Feiyu walked onto the stage, barriers rose up on all sides.
Yuan Feiyu held the sword in one hand and performed a sword salute to Yan Luoyue with a solemn expression.
"Junior Sister Yan, please."
Yan Luoyue smiled and returned the greeting to Yuan Feiyu: "Brother Yuan, please don't hold back on me. You really don't have to."
The next moment, with the command of "three, two, one", Yuan Feiyu and Yan Luoyue each took action.
Yuan Feiyu raised his sword with the tip pointing to the sky.
A chilling sword light suddenly gathered on the sword that had just undergone top-level maintenance and was gleaming with cold light.
As for Yan Luoyue...
Well, Yan Luoyue immediately turned into a turtle, and then lay in the corner of the barrier without moving!
This unexpected way of dealing with the situation surprised the peak masters who were watching the battle, and they all exchanged glances.
Does this mean... you plan to just take the beating and not fight back?
How is such a negative response strategy different from simply giving up?
A peak master secretly glanced at Ji Qinghong, wanting to know what expression he would have when facing the performance of his disciples.
...And to be honest, at this moment, they actually felt a little proud!
Unfortunately, Ji Qinghong didn't let anyone see any fun at all.
Ji Qinghong sat upright with a slight smile of amusement on his face, looking very relaxed.
It was as if his race was no longer a rabbit, but he had suddenly turned into a tortoise, and he was as calm as a mountain.
“…”
Ji Qinghong even smiled and asked Jianfeng Peak Master: "What do you think, Junior Sister Chu?"
The head of Jianfeng said: "Feiyu's talent is not outstanding, but I like his unyielding spirit."
"Just based on this young man's sharpness, his sword energy cannot be resisted by ordinary defensive techniques."
Almost at the moment when the leader of Jianfeng Peak finished speaking, the cold sword light that could cut through ice and blood slashed heavily on Yan Luoyue's turtle shell!
...Then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a cultivator could probably see clearly that there was a tiny, barely noticeable scratch on Yan Luoyue's turtle shell.
Jianfeng Peak Master: "..."
Yuan Feiyu did not hesitate at all when he failed to hit the target with one strike.
His sword energy was so strong that it didn't even allow his opponent to breathe, and in the blink of an eye he delivered a second blow!
The third blow, the fourth blow, the fifth blow followed closely...
Then, a quarter of an hour passed, and Yuan Feiyu was still chopping persistently.
Everyone: “…”
Yuan Feiyu once told Yan Luoyue that he would strike the sword 36,000 times every morning, and this was not an empty promise.
Because in just a quarter of an hour, he had already landed nearly a thousand blows.
But Yan Luoyue really wanted to tell Yuan Feiyu: Senior Brother Yuan, just give up and stop trying.
Even though Yuan Feiyu was chopping with great pleasure and his attacks were as fierce as a tiger, the actual damage value on Yan Luoyue's health bar might not be even 250.
After all, for the fairness of the competition, Yuan Feiyu suppressed his cultivation to the middle stage of foundation building.
If Yuan Feiyu had understood the sword intent, he could have caused more damage to Yan Luoyue. But he didn't.
Moreover, Yan Luoyue's turtle form is inherently more defensive than her human form.
Plus, Yan Luoyue was using the Turtle Armor Technique at this time, and her health bar could automatically regenerate health...
Taking all the above reasons into consideration, Yan Luoyue almost watched his health points drop continuously from -0.5, -0.3, to -0.6.
Yan Luoyue: “…”
If it wouldn't seem too provocative, Yan Luoyue really wanted to tell Yuan Feiyu:
Senior Brother Xiao Yuan, as long as you maintain your current offensive momentum without delaying for even a second, you only need to keep attacking me for about twenty-three days, and you will be able to defeat me!
As for now...
Yan Luoyue sighed with regret in his heart, then put his limbs and head back into his shell.
An hour passed as the peak masters who were watching the battle looked increasingly insane...
Three hours have passed...
The sword light on the stage was still strong and persistent, without any weakening.
But the little turtle nesting in the corner of the barrier had a slight change.
This change is...
The peak masters had unpredictable expressions and exchanged glances with each other.
—Wait a minute, is the child asleep?
——Yeah, judging by his breathing, he fell asleep…
Everyone: “…”
That night, after fighting hard for five hours, Yuan Feiyu was finally exhausted.
The tip of his sword touched the ground, his back was straight, but he couldn't help but breathe heavily.
Just at this moment, Yan Luoyue stretched his limbs and head out of the turtle shell, first stretched his waist, and then launched an attack on Yuan Feiyu with full energy.
It is well known that sword cultivators are so tough and strong that they can be ranked alongside body cultivators as the two greatest warriors in the world of cultivation.
Even though Yuan Feiyu suppressed his cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Stage, his physique was still that of a Golden Core Stage sword cultivator.
This means that the attack that Yan Luoyue launched on Yuan Feiyu was almost the same as the attack that Yuan Feiyu launched on her, which was a kind of tickling behavior.
But this hour of struggle was by no means without any effect.
The effect was that - Yan Luoyue's health bar, which had originally had a small empty space, was filled up in this hour!
Yan Luoyue: “…”
This isn't bad news, though.
But for Brother Xiao Yuan's mental health, it's better not to let him know.
In this way, the terrible duel between Yan Luoyue and Yuan Feiyu lasted for three days.
On the third day, bathed in the faint morning light as the sun broke through the horizon, someone finally asked a question.
"Are there any time limits for the competitions in our Dharma Disciple Arena Rules?"
“…No.”
"...Such a big loophole, why has no one noticed it?"
"That's a good question. But who should I ask if you ask me?"
——Before today's match, who could have imagined that the ring match would have such a weird loophole!
Some people couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Ji Qinghong and the master of Jianfeng Peak in the center.
The temperament of the master of Jianfeng Peak is like a lonely snow-capped peak that has existed for eternity.
And Ji Qinghong... he couldn't even look at this guy, he had to hold his breath!
This rabbit with white hair and red eyes was laughing the whole time and he never stopped!
The competition was finally stopped on the tenth day.
Finally, the competition between the disciples of the Way of Weapons and the disciples of the Way of Swords ended in a draw.
Everyone’s response to this is – It’s finally over!
After the competition, a familiar disciple from Jianfeng quietly found Yan Luoyue and asked her what she wanted to say about the victory or defeat of the competition.
Yan Luoyue thought about it and said with emotion: "It's because Senior Brother Xiao Yuan wants to be strong all his life. In addition, Jindan-stage cultivators have already practiced fasting and won't have the urge to go to the toilet... Otherwise, I would have won."
The brother who asked the question: “…”
After this match, a rumor gradually spread among the disciples of Jianfeng:
It is said that under the tutelage of the master of that peak - you must know which peak it is, every disciple who has visited Jianfeng has changed something about Jianfeng.
Jiang Tingbai changed the Great Dao Qingtian Monument of Jianfeng.
Wu Manshuang changed a sword formation at Jianfeng.
As for Yan Luoyue, she changed the rules of Jianfeng's arena.
From then on, if the winner cannot be determined within an hour of a ring match, it will be considered a draw.
