Chapter 118: Fixing Ones Eyes On

  ♂?,,

  "This person, is he that genius swordsman?"

  "Divine light converges, every word and action, guarding the origin. This swordsman is actually a good seedling, no wonder he was personally challenged by Lie Dongyang. What's even more precious is that his age is still so young, a genius swordsman who is not yet eighteen..."

  Two onlookers gazing at the legendary swordsman of the Divine Selection Swordsmen Academy, saw Wang Ting get off the carriage and had already spoken their own evaluation.

  It's not hard to hear from their words that these two seem to have high hopes for this young genius swordsman.

  "This genius swordsman, is he the one you recommended?"

  Jiang Di's straightforward personality made him focus his attention on Hong Tu and others.

  "Uh..."

  Hong Tu was slightly stunned, and his gaze quickly shifted to Shang Mingyuan beside him.

  Because of the impending duel between Lie Dongyang and Wang Ting, the name "Wang Ting" has been on everyone's lips in the imperial capital lately. As a result, those present naturally knew that he was from the prestigious Xuanji High-Level Swordsmen Academy, and for a moment, almost everyone's gaze turned to the principal of Shang Ming Institute.

  "This..."

  The principal of the Xuanzhong High-level Swordsmen Academy, in the Tai Xuan Kingdom, is indeed a figure with great authority, but at this moment, being watched by two legendary swordsmen and Prince Gong himself, he still feels immense pressure. Especially when thinking about how his academy handled this student, his heart feels even more uneasy.

  "This student is indeed a core student of our Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsmanship Academy. Even Vice President Beige, who is also a master swordsman, personally came to recruit him as his apprentice, but this person is arrogant and looks down on even someone like Vice President Beige..."

  "So they just directly excluded him?"

  Before the Dean of the Dark Temple could finish speaking, Jiang Emperor had already coldly interrupted his next words.

  "It's...not like that, it seems that Fang Qianhua Sword Master intends to recommend his own person. With Fang Qianhua Sword Master's face at stake, we can't force the issue anymore..."

  "As a student of the prestigious Xuanzhong High-Level Swordsmen Academy, they couldn't even get a recommendation from the principal, and instead forced these talented swordsmen to seek other paths..."

  Jiang Di's expression was calm as he spoke, although no joy or anger could be heard, but the Dean of Shang Ming Yuan clearly sensed that something big was amiss.

  "I'll personally explain this matter to our principal, if the High-Level Swordsmen Academy thinks that those true genius swordsmen aren't worth recommending to our Divine Selection Swordsmen Academy, then so be it, don't recommend them in the future either."

  As soon as this was said, not only the principal of the Xuanzhong High-level Swordsmen Academy, Shang Ming, but also Prince Hongtu's face changed greatly, and he hastily said: "Your two highnesses, I believe that there must be some misunderstanding in this matter. Please rest assured, your highnesses, I will definitely investigate this matter clearly and give you a satisfactory answer."

  This sentence should be translated as: This promise has come down, Shang Mingyuan is in a high position of power, perhaps only with some trouble, but the scapegoat must be pushed out.

  It goes without saying that nine out of ten, it must be Beigong, the vice president of Xuanzhong High-level Swordsmen Academy.

  Jiang Di gave a cold glance at Shang Ming and Hong Tu. Although he was a legendary swordsman who spent most of his time practicing swordsmanship, he would leave the academy every year to welcome new students, showing that he had a good understanding of the outside world. Moreover, the Tai Xuan kingdom's suppression of talented swordsmen who refused to submit to the royal family was quite severe, so Jiang Di had already guessed what had probably happened.

  He wasn't the master of Tai Xuan Kingdom after all, couldn't change the situation of Tai Xuan Kingdom, and didn't have the real power to not give Tai Xuan Kingdom a quota for the Divine Swordsmen Academy in the future. For now, he could only hum softly: "I hope so."

  ……

  "Here."

  Standing on the platform, Lie Dongyang, who had adjusted his physical and mental state to their peak, slightly raised his head, and his gaze fell on Wang Ting's body.

  "Long time no see."

  Wang Ting stepped onto this platform under the gaze of Lie Dongyang's eyes.

  Lie Dongyang glanced at Wang Ting and quickly saw through his true cultivation.

  "Still a ways off from being a top-notch swordsman, and in these ten days, I haven't even trained my physical body."

  "Even if I were to reach the pinnacle of a high-ranking swordsman, I still wouldn't have any confidence in winning."

  "It's implied now."

  "I said it would be as I wished."

  "Alright."

  Liu Dongyang slowly placed his sword in front of him, gently stroking the blade with one hand, as if treating it like his most intimate friend.

  "A month ago, outside the Elf tribe's perimeter in the Temple Quest, a strange technique broke my Thorough Heart Sword Technique. It was the first time my sword technique had been broken since I surpassed the Great Swordsman."

  "If there is a first time, then there will be a second time."

  "Again."

  On Lie Dongyang's face, which seemed to say that everyone in the world owed him a million gold coins, a faint smile appeared: "The second time, the expected second time, the swordsmanship of the realm of the only sword."

  "I will let you see."

  If Jian was speaking at the time, he would be slowly pulled out by Wang Ting.

  "So... what's holding you back?"

  "Wait for the sword."

  "I draw my sword."

  Lie Dongyang's gaze fell on Wang Ting's body.

  The man standing in front of him, much younger than he was, gave off an aura that seemed to blend seamlessly with his surroundings, creating the illusion that no matter which direction or angle he chose to attack from, he would immediately be met with a counterattack that embodied the perfect union of human and sword.

  It's not that he didn't draw his sword, but rather, whoever draws their sword first will be the first to reveal an opening.

  ……

  "Unity of man and sword...... This imperial court......"

  Among the crowd, many great swordsmen and masters of swordsmanship had a hint of caution in their eyes.

  The state of unity between man and sword, they are not unfamiliar with it. When they reach this state, they can touch this state from time to time. However, touching this state is one thing, entering this state at any time and place is another matter altogether.

  Even among many top-notch swordsmen, it's impossible to always be in this state. Just the moment they step onto the stage, these great swordsmen and masters have already put away their underestimation and disdain for Wang Ting.

  "Father, why hasn't Dongyang brother drawn his sword yet?"

  Underneath, Hailin'er saw something, but she didn't dare confirm it at all.

  Or...

  Can't believe it.

  I couldn't believe that a young man who suddenly appeared from nowhere had reached this level of understanding in the realm of swordsmanship.

  "Just watch, just watch."

  The Earl of Haino responded, his expression no longer as relaxed as before.

  "No wonder Dongyang would use him as a stepping stone for his own rise to legendary swordsman, this Wang Ting, he has the ability to do so."

  Lie Dongshan sighed and looked at Wang Ting with a gaze full of regret.

  It seems like a pity for such a talented person with infinite potential to thoroughly fall today.

  "Master... is that really true?"

  On the carriage by the street, a man looked at Wang Ting on the stage, his tone slightly trembling, and his eyes were filled with incredulity.

  As a swordsman, he understood more than anyone else the great benefits of entering that realm for swordsmen. However, the realm they could hardly enter once in several days was completely grasped by the opponent now, which was simply...

  "The geniuses of this world are never in the minority."

  The number one swordsman of the Ma family's carriage let out a sigh.

  Bang!

  Almost at the moment when Zhou Yan let out a sigh, Lie Dongyang suddenly drew his sword on the platform!
