Empress Canglan's eyes flickered with anticipation. She continued to ask, "Master Chu, may I ask if His Majesty the Emperor of Wei has also placed such a technique in Prince Teng's Pavilion?"
She knew that if she could obtain such a technique that could allow ordinary people to cultivate into warriors, it would undoubtedly be a great opportunity for her. As long as she possessed such a technique, she could cultivate her own power in the Canglan Empire;
Then in the Canglan Empire, most of the difficult problems that make one feel difficult can be solved easily, and may even change the entire pattern of the empire.
The representatives of other factions present also showed greedy expressions, secretly calculating in their hearts that if they could obtain such a technique, their sects would be able to recruit more potential warriors, thereby improving the sect's overall strength.
Some might question this, arguing that those with potential already possess a natural talent for martial arts and therefore don't need such a technique. Those who hold this view are incredibly narrow-minded. After all, those with a natural talent for martial arts are a minority in this world; most people are ordinary people. Don't they want to become martial artists?
There must be many ordinary people without martial arts talent in those families with potential martial artists, right? As long as I tell those martial arts geniuses that I can help their families become martial artists, then these geniuses will definitely give priority to my sect when choosing a master.
In this way, the sect's strength will be greatly enhanced, and it may even become one of the most powerful forces in the empire where it is located.
Chu Yuanwu's next words were like a bucket of cold water, completely extinguishing the flames of hope that had just ignited in their hearts: "Your Majesty has not made this technique public, and there is no such secret manual in Tengwang Pavilion. This may be because this technique is too difficult to master, or the training conditions required are extremely harsh and beyond the ability of ordinary people to endure.
Otherwise, there are many ordinary children of the Wei royal family who have no talent for martial arts outside the country, and Your Majesty will not sit idly by."
After hearing Chu Yuanwu's words, everyone's faces showed disappointment and they sighed silently in their hearts. Obviously, such a heaven-defying technique is not easily obtained. If such a technique really exists, then it must have transcended countless peerless techniques and is definitely not something that can be easily glimpsed.
Chu Anping spoke up at this time, breaking the silence: "If no one regrets, then let's check the secret book itself. After all, you can only stay in Tengwang Pavilion for one day, and you will need to go down the mountain after one day. So everyone should hurry up and comprehend the skills in the secret book, and don't waste time."
After hearing what Chu Anping said, Empress Canglan and others stopped talking and immersed themselves in checking the secret book. However, most people felt that the "Swordsman" written by Chu Fan was just an ordinary vernacular novel, and only three people saw some unknown secrets in it.
As time passed, the deadline of the day was about to end. Those who failed to see any secrets were filled with dissatisfaction and anger. They secretly cursed the Wei royal family for being mysterious, thinking that all this was just an elaborate scam that wasted their precious time and money.
Although they were full of complaints, they did not dare to express them publicly; because of the existence of Chu Yuanwu, a master at the peak level of the Grandmaster level, they had to suppress their dissatisfaction in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
At this moment, the old man who had been accompanying Empress Canglan to the Chuitai Mountain suddenly opened his eyes, and a powerful sword intent emanated from him.
Without a moment's hesitation, the old man immediately left Tengwang Pavilion and came to the platform on Chuitai Mountain outside to practice a set of sword techniques. He was seen waving the long sword in his hand, and the sword energy overflowed and crisscrossed, and the rocks were shattered under the impact of the sword energy.
As the old man left Tengwang Pavilion so eagerly, the other people present immediately realized that the old man must have discovered something. They stopped looking at the secret books and followed the old man out of Tengwang Pavilion, wanting to see with their own eyes what had happened.
When they saw the old man's divinely-assisted swordsmanship, everyone was shocked. They thought to themselves: Could it be that this secret book contains the secret of sword intent and mental method? Only through the comprehension of sword intent can we truly understand the mystery.
Chu Yuanwu also walked steadily onto the platform at this time. After he witnessed the old man's superb sword dance performance, he said with a smile: "Congratulations, Master Xu, you have realized your own sword technique."
After Xu Long sheathed his sword and stood, his eyes still gleaming with the lingering sword intent. He slowly responded, "Thank you very much, Senior Chu Yuanwu, for granting me this precious opportunity."
Chu Yuanwu, still smiling, humbly replied, "This opportunity was not bestowed by me, but by His Majesty the Emperor of Wei. I only hope that in the days to come, we will not encounter Master Xu on the battlefield."
Xu Long felt somewhat awkward at this moment. After all, whether a war would break out between the two countries was not something he, as a guardian, could influence. If Empress Canglan hadn't been present, he might have said without hesitation that he would never become an enemy of the State of Wei.
However, with his own emperor right before his eyes, he dared not make any promises. He could only respond vaguely, "I hope so. After all, peace in the world is always a blessing for the people."
The Canglan Empress also noticed Xu Long's embarrassment at this time. She spoke at the right time: "I came here to repair the relationship between Wei and the Canglan Empire. I believe that as long as I am in power, the Canglan Empire will not be an enemy of Wei."
Chu Yuanwu nodded after hearing what the Canglan Queen said. Regardless of whether the Canglan Queen's words were sincere or not, at least the sincerity she showed at this moment was comforting.
Chu Yuanwu's eyes slowly swept over everyone present. He noticed that the elders from several other forces all had disappointment on their faces because they failed to comprehend the mystery of the peerless secret book.
Chu Yuanwu said earnestly, "In fact, what Grandmaster Xu just comprehended was only a relatively simple martial arts move from this peerless secret manual. The true essence and profoundness still require you to carefully comprehend and experience in the days to come."
