[What a pity, I didn't get to see her feet today.]
Su Yuewan: "..."
She shouldn't have expected Bai Hao to say anything good.
This guy can never maintain this serious image.
I finally trusted this guy once.
The result is still the same!
This is infuriating!
And this isn't even a first offense!
If they weren't in public, she really would have kicked Bai Hao in the face and asked him if he still wanted to look!
They have absolutely no ambition!
...
"It's been a long time since I've seen Sect Leader Su's swordsmanship. I never imagined that Sect Leader Su's sword intent had reached such a level. It's truly admirable." Bai Yuanhong flattered, though he wasn't so adamant as to deny that Su Yuewan's swordsmanship was better than his.
Su Yuewan's swordsmanship was obviously superior to his, so there was nothing wrong with admitting defeat.
Moreover, this is not simply a contest between the two of them, but also involves their respective disciples.
"Li Hai," Bai Yuanhong said to the robust disciple, "how much of what you've learned from Sect Master Su's sword strike?"
Li Hai clasped his hands and said, "Sect Leader Su's sword strike was astonishing. This disciple is dull-witted and can only understand one or two parts of it."
Everyone was shocked by these words.
One or two points, taken individually, don't seem like much.
But you should know that this is Su Yuewan's swordsmanship.
Who is Su Yuewan? She is a supreme expert, the number one sword saint.
The sword intent contained in her sword strike, let alone a fraction of it, even a trace of it, would greatly benefit one's cultivation.
But now, Bai Yuanhong's disciple actually claims to have grasped one or two parts of it!
This person's talent is terrifying?
Of course, some people don't believe it.
Fan Ziming was one of them. "Tch, I think he's just bragging. The sect leader's swordsmanship is so domineering, how could a big, burly man like him possibly comprehend it?"
Hearing his words, the junior brothers and sisters standing nearby gained even more confidence: "Second Senior Brother, how much of Sect Master Bai's Inviting the Moon Sword Technique do you think Senior Brother can comprehend?"
Fan Ziming thought for a moment and said very seriously, "At least 50%!"
"Fifty percent?"
This time, it was the disciples of the Inviting Moon Sect who expressed their disdain.
"You think your senior brother can comprehend even half of our sect leader's sword intent? You must be drunk."
Even the disciples of the Falling Sea Sect didn't quite believe Fan Ziming's words, thinking he was just bragging.
Because this statement is simply not convincing.
It wasn't that they thought Bai Yuanhong's Inviting the Moon Sword Technique was particularly impressive; they simply felt that Bai Hao was no good...
Although he was the senior disciple, in the eyes of the disciples of the Falling Sea Sect, Bai Hao was just a cook who was given the title of "senior disciple".
He's impeccable when it comes to cooking, but as for his talent for cultivation...
It wasn't that they didn't want to believe it, it's just that they had never seen Bai Hao display any skills...
But Fan Ziming was very confident.
Five points might be a bit of an exaggeration, but it doesn't diminish his trust in Bai Hao at all.
This trust didn't come for nothing.
When he encountered those two disciples of the Divine Sea Sect in Bailu Town, he fought with one of them, who was in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.
Even though he was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he inexplicably felt a surge in power at that time, allowing him to easily defeat his opponent.
All of this was too strange, and the strangest thing was that Fan Ziming clearly remembered that it was Bai Hao who patted his shoulder, which gave him such great power.
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Bai Hao is a hidden master!
This is why Fan Ziming trusts Bai Hao.
Similarly, Su Yuewan had even more confidence in Bai Hao than Fan Ziming.
"Bai Hao, how much of Sect Master Bai's Inviting the Moon Sword Technique have you comprehended?"
Bai Hao possesses sword essence; saying he completely saw through the Inviting Moon Sword Technique might be an exaggeration, but seeing through seven or eight tenths of it should be quite easy for him.
"I have only grasped one or two parts of it," Bai Hao said modestly.
He gets one or two points, I get one or two points too, that way there's no difference in status, no one feels awkward, perfect.
Saying it too high will make you seem arrogant, while saying it too low will make you lose face.
So Bai Hao gave the same answer as the other person.
Since you're going to show off, let's all show off together.
Who's afraid of who?
But this answer is clearly not going to satisfy everyone.
“Since both of you have grasped one or two aspects of it, why don’t you two make your moves at the same time and each strike a sword against the other? How about that?” Bai Yuanhong said.
“This disciple has no objection,” Li Hai said immediately.
"I...I have no objection." Bai Hao almost blurted out that he wanted to have an objection, but when he suddenly saw Su Yuewan's fierce eyes, he passively had no objection.
Damn it! After all that fuss, it still ends up being a fight.
So all my previous prayers for rain were for nothing? Can it just not count...?
How about... another rain shower?
[Want to spend another ten years single?]
Bai Hao hesitated for a moment.
While he hesitated about whether to ask for rain, Li Hai had already walked up to him, drawn the sword from behind him, pointed it at Bai Hao, and said, "Junior brother, please."
Bai Hao: “…”
Who is your junior brother?
Don't try to get too close to me, okay?
But even if we're going to fight, we need to at least give them a sword...
Just as he was thinking this, Su Yuewan threw down the sword in her hand, but it did not fall to the ground; instead, it hovered quietly in front of him.
That's so cool!
Bai Hao was startled and took the sword in his hand, feeling a little unaccustomed to its weight.
"Junior brother, please make your move," Li Hai said.
"Ahem, since this is a contest of swordsmanship, there's no need for such politeness. Let's make our moves simultaneously," Bai Hao said with a light cough.
"Okay, let's get ready then."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword aura suddenly rose from the longsword in Li Hai's hand, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it actually had a hint of the Wind-Following Sword Technique.
Of course, this sudden change in pace was something he forced himself to do by adjusting his breathing, rather than something that happened naturally with the wind.
But to say that it contains even a fraction of Su Yuewan's sword energy... is somewhat plausible.
After all, appearance counts too.
"In that case, I will too."
You take the form, I take the form too.
This was Bai Hao's first time truly wielding a sword. He took a deep breath, and his longsword trembled, creating a flurry of sword flowers that formed... a moon.
The Moon Invitation Sword Technique? I've even brought out the moon! Doesn't this move deserve two points?
Of course, this moon pales in comparison to Bai Yuanhong's moon; there's simply no comparison.
There's even a hint of mockery in this, leaving room for interpretation.
Creating a moon is called the Moon Invitation Sword Technique... but it has no sword intent whatsoever.
If this isn’t a provocation, what is?
Li Haidu had said he possessed a trace of sword intent, but this guy didn't even have a trace of it, which made the faces of the people from the Yaoyue Sect look very strange and ugly.
