Chapter 717: Chapter 667: Experiencing the Swordsmanship of the National Master

Please continue reading on ΒOXΝʘVEL.ϹΟM .

Though he had a grandmaster as his teacher, who seemed capable of mastering any martial art with ease, Pang Hong was aware his natural talent did not rank in the exceptional. Hence, when countless advanced martial techniques lay before him for selection, he did not burden himself with learning too many. Instead, he specialized in a handful of them.

The Sword Drawing Skill was his best skill. After decades of cultivation, his mastery of the skill had already encompassed about seventy to eighty percent of Pei Xuanjing’s original charm, but it had a distinct style, unique to Pang Hong. He had carved out his own path, not merely imitating Pei Xuanjing.

Clang!

Shenxiao Sword was unsheathed.

Gripping the sword, drawing it out, unsheathing it, and slashing all flowed as smoothly as a drifting cloud, without any pauses!

A brilliant flash of sword light appeared. In the instant that the sword left its sheath, an intense and deadly sword intent seeped through.

Threat of a single sword, seemed as if it had the power to tear the sky and cleave the earth.

The freezing sword light, paired with the violent sword intent, even cut through the space, breaking Jian Wuying’s all-encompassing sword light and obliterating it, despite there being just a single stroke of sword light.

Pang Hong’s sword intent was not majestic and dazzling like Pei Xuanjing; instead, it was full of his unique style, no less violent than the Shenxiao skill he cultivated, bearing a striking resemblance to the thunder in the sky.

The Sword Drawing Skill in his hands did not pursue the extremity of speed like Pei Xuanjing had, but it was full of violence and a sense of destruction.

The smile on Jian Wuying’s face, who just launched a sword attack, froze. He never expected that his sword skills would be so easily broken by his opponent.

Moreover, the destructive sword light continued to fall towards him, swift as thunder. Even as he prepared to raise his sword in defense, it was too late.

Boom!

After the sword flash passed and dissipated, Jian Wuying’s figure disappeared from the ring, reappearing outside of it.

Even after reaching the outside world, droplets of sweat the size of soybeans dripped from Jian Wuying’s forehead, and cold sweat soaked his back. His mind was filled with the horror of that one sword.

“The disciple of the Royal Advisor really lives up to his reputation. I’m afraid that many cultivators at the Fifth Level of the Spirit Realm would find this sword hard to defend against. Even cultivators at the Sixth Level of the Spirit Realm would find it challenging.” All feelings of jealousy towards Pang Hong disappeared from Jian Wuying’s mind.

No matter what, he knew that the comparison was not meaningful anymore. He could not challenge or defeat Pang Hong at his current level.

“I guess only the few prodigies within the Sect could suppress him!” Jian Wuying thought to himself.

Pang Hong’s sword attack just now reminded him of the strongest few prodigies within his Sword Sect, real masters who were born with an innate talent for swordsmanship.

Thinking of his own presumptous challenge against such a prodigy, Jian Wuying’s face revealed a hint of bitterness. He had truly brought this hardship onto himself. The substantial rewards were unfortunately out of reach for him.

It wasn’t just Jian Wuying, the eliminated participant, who came to know more about Pang Hong. After his sword strike, many cultivators around him also revealed shocked expressions.

Just moments ago, after learning of Pang Hong’s identity, many cultivators ignited their will to challenge, wanting to make a name for themselves by confronting the direct disciple of such a powerful figure and hence gain fame.

But after witnessing that sword strike, many of them instantly retreated, aware that they were not Pang Hong’s match.

But of course, where the weak retreat, the strong only became more eager to face a challenge. Knowing how strong this direct disciple of the Royal Advisor is, young powerhouses from some top-ranked forces also began showing interest.

These people were born into privilege and natural talent. They didn’t pay much attention to Pei Xuanjing since he was not very famous; even the fact that he was the direct disciple of a grandmaster didn’t impress them. In their eyes, only the truly powerful of their generation were worth fighting.

However, now that Pang Hong has displayed strength not less than them, they suddenly became interested. After all, it only made sense to defeat and suppress such an opponent.

Thus, after Pang Hong defeated Jian Wuying with a single sword strike, it instantly attracted many real prodigies from amongst their peers. Among them were young powerhouses from the Sword Sect, who were also those “innate sword bone” prodigies mentioned by Jian Wuying.

Pang Hong, however, didn’t know this yet.

And of course, even if he did know, he would not be afraid. In fact, he would be even happier.

After all, his reason for being here was not for resources. As a disciple of Pei Xuanjing, he did not need to worry about cultivation resources. Even though these resources were precious, he did not hold them in high regard.

His real intention was to challenge these powerhouses of his generation. Only by defeating them could he prove to the world that his master’s choice was right and he hadn’t let his master down.

“The disciple of the Royal Advisor seems to be quite extraordinary!” a cultivator from the Sword Sect who was at the Eighth Level of the Spirit Realm, said to Pei Xuanjing with a smile.

Due to his position as the direct disciple, Pang Hong naturally attracted a lot of attention from many powerful individuals. They wanted to see if he really had some of Pei Xuanjing’s abilities.

From Pang Hong’s previous sword move, these powerhouses could easily discern that he clearly walked his own path. Such talent, even among cultivators in the Sky Wasteland, was extraordinary.

Fate is not as fearsome as Ancestors.

For cultivators above the Seventh Level of the Spirit Realm, this sentiment was firmly embedded in their hearts.

They deeply understood that in this world there were only the strongest cultivators, but there was no such thing as the strongest skill.

Any skill, even if taught by a grandmaster themselves, cannot be completely replicated. After all, doing so would only lead to walking the same path others have taken before. Even if they were prodigies, their potential would inevitably be limited. Only those who truly walk their own path, can compensate for a lack of talent.

At this moment, Pang Hong, at only the Fourth Level of the Spirit Realm, had already started to walk his own path. It was something many even at the Sixth Level of the Spirit Realm were unable to do, which understandably garnered astonishment from others.

“It’s nothing more than luck!” Pei Xuanjing humbly shook his head, laughed, and said, “The disciples of the Sword Sect are remarkably gifted. The true powerhouses have yet to make their move.”

Regarding Pang Hong’s victory over Jian Wuying, Pei Xuanjing didn’t care much, feeling it was to be expected. After all, despite Jian Wuying being somewhat capable, he still fell short compared to the real young powerhouses and prodigies of the Sword Sect. Given that he had personally trained Pang Hong, it would be strange if Pang Hong did not come out on top.

“Speaking of swordsmanship, Kingdom Teacher, yours is impressive. If the opportunity arises, this humble monk would like to experience it.” An ultimate powerhouse of Sword Sect addressed Pei Xuanjing with a smile.

The Sword Sect cultivators devoted their lives to only the sword. They were very fond of the swordsmanship and sword techniques displayed by Pei Xuanjing. If it weren’t for the different situations, these ultimate powerhouses of Sword Sect would have probably already initiated a request for sword competition.

“Of course, I am also curious about the exquisite sword techniques of the Sword Sect,” Pei Xuanjing replied, not rejecting the request.
