“Shameless braggart!”

With that said, Murong Shan gave a cold shout. His muscles surged powerfully, exuding Heavenly Earthly Force. With one step, the whole practice martial arts field trembled slightly.

“Mountain Suppression Palm, the palm suppresses the green mountains!”

Murong Shan thrusted his palm, carrying a force as if it could suppress mountains. This transformed into a palm print nearly ten feet in size and began to press against Pei Xuanjing. Everywhere the palm print passed, the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi roared, setting off countless qi explosions.

“Nice try! ” Pei Xuanjing laughed gently.

He stretched out his right hand, fingers formed into a sword gesture. With a gentle swipe in the air, an approximately three-feet-long sword qi burst forth. In that moment, everyone seemed to feel an unparalleled ferocity tearing through the heavens.

Thud!

The palm print was easily split open by the sword qi. The remaining force didn’t diminish, the unmatched knife’s edge continued forward. Murong Shan was entirely subjected to a tremendous impact, coughing up blood, and was blown off his feet, landing tens of feet away. If it weren’t for the vastness of the practice martial arts field, he would have been eliminated.

However, the rest of those present, watching the struggling Murong Shan with his unstable aura, could clearly tell he was badly hurt, and his abilities were most likely significantly diminished from before.

The others exchanged glances. They each saw the deep fear in the others’ eyes. Murong Shan’s abilities were comparable to theirs, and even ranked in the higher tier among them, yet he had been defeated so effortlessly.

There came a moment of silence in the practice martial arts field. No one had expected Pei Xuanjing’s abilities to have reached such an extent. Had they not witnessed his breakthrough into the Qi Realm with their own eyes just earlier, Shi Feng and the others would have believed that he had already stepped even rurtner Into tne stage or ‘rrue Great Accompnsnment.

“What about you guys? Are you not going to make a move?”

In the practice martial arts field, Pei Xuanjing’s smile did not waver. With his eyes sweeping over the crowd, he still appeared gentle and scholarly, but almost everyone felt the surge of his powerful aura.

In that move just now, Pei Xuanjing had clearly understood the gap in their strength. The people before him, although they could be considered talented and demonic, had simply not cultivated for long enough.

In Pei Xuanjing’s view, his real opponents– even that Chu Tiange from the Da Li Dynasty– were nothing in comparison. His true opponents in this world were among those heavenly ranked powerhouses.

Just as well, since this competition had become meaningless, it should be brought to an end now!

With that thought, Pei Xuanjing gestured with his right hand, and a Hundred Tempered Longsword flew over from the weapons rack at the edge of the practice martial arts field and into his hand. As soon as the sword was in his hand, his aura drastically changed. His previously gentle demeanor instantly became sharp and intimidating, like a divine sword.

“Gentlemen, I have been pondering over this for more than a decade, creating half a set of sword techniques. If anyone among you can withstand this one stroke, I admit defeat! Now, please experience the first move: Nine Luminaries!”

This was what Pei Xuanjing had worked on over the past 12 years, apart from studying martial arts. He wanted to integrate the sword techniques he had practiced, as well as his original martial arts skills, into one complete body, creating a unique sword technique. Of course, this sword technique was only in its initial stage, and only three moves have been deduced.

As his voice fell, the Hundred Tempered Longsword in his hand began to hum, and a sharp aura started to seep from his body. This aura seemed to be invincible, as if it was meant to sever everything.

Hmm?

Atop the high platform, Mr. Pei Laozhu’s eyes lit up. At the same time, surprise appeared on the faces of Guo Yi and Gu Yunshan. They almost simultaneously uttered, “Sword intent!”

Sword intent!

Unexpectedly, this Pei Xuanjing had grasped the Sword intent! The people on the high platform exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock. For Pei Xuanjing, just releasing a fraction of his intent was enough to deter everyone.

It’s worth knowing that in terms of the comprehension of the martial arts realm, Pei Xuanjing had far surpassed everyone else, probably only those heavenly rank powerhouses in this world could match him.

The first sword, named: Nine Luminaries.

When Pei Xuanjing used this move, even though he was only holding an ordinary Hundred Tempered Longsword, the strength he exhibited had left everyone in awe.

As the longsword slashed through the sky, a crisp ringing sound echoed. Then, upon the ordinary sword blade, nine celestial body illusions appeared. The nine celestial bodies connected together, echoing each other, their aura soaring through the heavens.

Although it was still daylight, almost everyone seemed to see nine celestial bodies faintly twinkling in the sky, and stars falling, merging into the sword.

Next, Pei Xuanjing just waved in the air, a ten-foot-long sword qi howled out, instantly transformed into several blade shadows, rushing towards everyone on the field.

In the field, the ten-plus people could all feel an intangible Heavenly Earthly Force descending. The awe-inspiring heavenly majesty pressed down out of thin air, covering them. Their faces changed drastically as they each used their unique skills to deal with the oncoming blade shadows.

“Guo Yi, what do you think of this sword?” Mr. Pei Laozhu suppressed the astonishment in his heart, smiled and asked Guo Yi who was next to him.

Truth be told, even though he had great faith in Pei Xuanjing, he was clueless about what Pei Xuanjing had achieved in his twelve years of pondering.

Now that he saw the sword Pei Xuanjing had executed, it had gone entirely beyond his expectations.

“At the same realm as me, I wouldn’t be able to resist!” After a moment’s pondering, Guo Yi opened his mouth to speak with a bitter smile.

If it had been earlier, if he and Pei Xuanjing were both in the same realm, their strength would probably not exceed each other’s; without reaching the final moment, the outcome would be uncertain, even if the latter had already mastered the sword intent.

However, when he saw the sword technique that Pei Xuanjing had created himself, Guo Yi felt a bit overwhelmed.

To be clear, even if one mastered the intent, they could only execute a martial arts technique to its fullest. But for those who had created a technique, it was not just about that when they executed it.

He directed his gaze at the extraordinary Pei Xuanjing on the practice martial arts field. Deep in his heart, he thought: it seems that another unparalleled swordsman has emerged in the world.

In the practice martial arts field, in the face of Pei Xuanjing’s nearly invincible sword, the dozen people could only resist with all of their strength. At this moment, their abilities were instantly revealed.

After the sword pass!

In the practice martial arts field, more than a dozen people had all been directly eliminated, falling below the field. Only Pei Xuanjing was standing.

And his long sword, unable to withstand Pei Xuanjing’s sword intent, disintegrated into dust.

In the vast practice martial arts field, only Pei Xuanjing stood there with his hands behind his back, his aura sharp and intimidating, causing everyone present to dare not look directly at him.

Pei Xuanjing smiled lightly, ignoring all else, and turned to return to the Pei Mansion.

[At fifteen years old: Your swordsmanship reached great accomplishment, created a sensation at the Martial Arts Competition in Yunzhong City, and no one among your peers can match you.]

As the saying goes, “Still for three years, only to make a stunning move; static for three years, only to fly up the sky.”

Today’s sword move, which suppressed all his peers, immediately spread throughout Yunzhong City, extending to Yunzhong County. His fame was chanted by countless people, and even in the plains of the Da Li Dynasty, people knew of this rising talent in Yunzhong.

Of course, nobody knew that three days after the imperial examination, Pei Xuanjing left the Pei Mansion in Yunzhong, disappearing into the Yunzhong grassland.

Ten years in the making of the sword, today the blade is tested..
