Leaving the Book Collection Pavilion.
Lu Yun originally planned to go directly to see the dean.
However, as soon as he came out of the Book Collection Pavilion; he saw a man standing outside waiting.
Chen Tianyun!
At a glance, Lu Yun recognized the man. Just like the last time, Chen Tianyun was wearing a black robe.
Upon seeing Lu Yun’s emergence, Chen Tianyun waved his hand, signaling Lu Yun to approach.
“Elder Chen, is there something you need?”
“Yes, I’ve been waiting here for a long time, 1 was thinking about going in there and taking you out if you were not going to show up anymore.”‘
At his words, Lu Yun’s expression changed slightly, then he laughed and said, “Please forgive me, Elder. I encountered some confusion in Martial Arts and consequently had to seek solutions in the Book Collection Pavilion. 1 didn’t think that I would spend such a long time.”‘
“It’s normal to have doubts. Now, have you resolved them?”
“I’ve gained a lot from this visit, and the doubts I had before are no longer there.”
“Ha ha, 1 can see that. You’ve gained a lot, and you’ve changed a lot compared to a few months ago.”
After Chen Tianyun’s unabashed praise for Lu Yun, he then changed the subject and sternly demanded, “Lu Yun, tell me the truth, did you pass the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower a long time ago?”
A terrifying aura blasted out, triking towards Lu Yun like a huge wave.
“This old guy, it’s the same routine again.”
With a sense of helplessness in his heart, Lu Yun forced a few drops of sweat from his forehead, pretending to be in struggle. He stuttered; “Yes… 1… I… did pass… the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower… a month ago.”
With a flick of his sleeve, Chen Tianyun retracted his immense pressure and snorted coldly, “Why hide this?”
“Elder, I’ve always kept a low profile and didn’t publicize it. Plus, 1 had some doubts about Martial Arts that urgently needed to be resolved, so I spent some extra days in the Book Collection Pavilion. I was just about to report it to the Martial Academy when you found me.”
“I guess you wouldn’t dare to fool me.”
A slight softening came over Chen Tianyun’s stern face, and he said seriously, “Now follow me to see the Dean.”
This was exactly what Lu Yun wanted, and he had no reason to object.
“Follow me.”
As he turned around, Chen Tianyun was unable to maintain his previous cold demeanor, the corner of his mouth hooking into a slight curve.
He thought to himself, “At such a young age, he is already keeping a low profile, his future is limitless. But he views the Martial Academy too simply. It’s all under the control of the Dean.”
In fact, as soon as Lu Yun had just passed the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, the academy’s Dean, Ye Xingchen, was informed right away.
He thought, Lu Yun would come to find him very soon.
After all, whether it s promoting to Star Palace disciple or obtaining a Superior True Artifact, it is a huge temptation for any new disciple.
However, Lu Yun could withstand these two great temptations and did not appear for a long time.
Conversely, Bai Haoxuan and Xiao Chen, who passed the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower after Lu Yun, visited him respectively while Lu Yun still did not appear.
Left with no choice, Ye Xingchen was forced to summon him.
Along the way, Lu Yun was trying to probe for other information, but Chen Tianyun was indifferent.
Persistent, Lu Yun asked another question.
“Elder Chen, who else among the new disciples has passed the tenth level of Myriad Phenomena Tower besides me?”
“Including you, only three. The other two are Bai Haoxuan and Xiao Chen, you should have expected this.11
This time, Chen Tianyun didn’t stay silent and readily informed him.
Having achieved a good start, Lu Yun took advantage of it.
“Elder, since 1 am also about to become a disciple of the Star Palace, could you disclose some information about the Star Palace in advance, to satisfy my curiosity.”
Chen Tianyun ignored him.
“Elder…”
Chen Tianyun still didn’t respond, but instead quickened his pace.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yun reluctantly sped up to keep up.
The further they went, the quicker Chen Tianyun became, prompting Lu Yun to apply his Gale Thunder Flash Step technique.
“This kid, not too shabby with his speed. But do you think it’s that simple?” Chen Tianyun glanced behind at Lu Yun, a small smirk playing at the corner of his mouth as his speed suddenly rocketed several times faster.
Seeing the gap between them widening, Lu Yun had no choice but to elevate his Gale Thunder Flash Step to a small achievement level, barely managing to keep up.
“Haha, not bad at all.”
Upon spotting Lu Yun catching up again, Chen Tianyun grinned, accelerating once more.
“Ah, Elder Chen, wait…”
Lu Yun shouted, maintaining the Gale Thunder Flash Step at small achievement level.
He wasn’t so foolish as to expose all his cards just because someone provoked him.
Besides, even without Chen Tianyun, he could find Ye Xingchen’s residence.
Not long after, he caught up with Chen Tianyun again.
“Kid, you’re not malting it. Your speed’s as slow as a snail.”
Chen Tianyun scoffed and continued to lead the way.
Before long, the two arrived once again at the tranquil and serene small courtyard.
As always, the towering tree in the courtyard was flourishing with dense leaves, vividly green and unchanging for millennia, shading the ancient-looking small courtyard.
As Chen Tianyun and Lu Yun arrived at the entrance, the courtyard door swung open automatically.
Upon entering the courtyard.
Ye Xingchen, stroking his white beard, looked at Lu Yun approvingly.
“Lu Yun, I see you’re full of vigorous vital energy, and has a strong sense of
Pure Yang dominance. Have you cultivated Pure Yang Aura?”
“The Dean has a keen eye. Indeed, 1 have cultivated the martial arts of the Pure Yang Aura;” Lu Yun said, bowing his fist in affirmation.
Ye Xingchen waved, smiled, and said, “Don’t be so formal around me. Especially you young folks. You should be bursting with vitality, showing off your mettle. Don’t always be so reserved.”
At his words, Lu Yun inwardly grimaced. If he fully showed his mettle, he’d likely not live past a month.
“Your advice is well taken, Dean. It’s just in my nature. I don’t like being flashy and attracting undue attention.”
Ye Xingchen slightly shook his head, “You first cultivated Pure Yang Aura, then the Golden Sun Refining Technique to refine the aura. Being a bit more assertive will help with the cultivation of later martial arts techniques.”
At these words, Lu Yun looked surprised.
Could being too low-key actually impede cultivation progress?
“I previously promised that if you could pass the tenth level of Myriad Phenomena Tower within half a year, you would receive a Superior True Artifact and be promoted to a disciple of the Star Palace.”
Ye Xingchen no longer dwelled on the previous topic. Instead, squinting at Lu Yun, he smiled and said, “You’ve done well, exceeding my expectations. I’ll keep my promise. Now, what type of Superior True Artifact do you wish to acquire?”
Regarding this, Lu Yun had long decided and without hesitation said, “I practice the Saber Technique and have quite a bit of strength; so I want a heavy broadsword.”
The tiger-head broadsaber he had obtained from defeating bandits in the past was not bad. However; as Lu Yun’s strength increased, the sword gradually fell short, and he dared not fully imbue it with aura in fear of accidentally destroying it.
Now having the chance to acquire a Superior True Artifact, Lu Yun naturally chose a hefty broadsword.
Seeing Lu’s choice, Ye Xingchen seemed not surprised and nodded slightly.
With a wave of his big hand, a flash of light flickered in front of him, and Lu Yun saw a black broadsword hovering in front of him.
The sword was entirely black, giving an impression of heaviness.
The hilt was a foot long, engraved with white scale-like patterns, appearing comfortable to hold.
The three-feet long blade was incredibly sharp. Leaves falling from the tree and touching the blade were instantly sliced in half.
“This blade is known as the White Scale Purple Gold Knife. The blade is four and a half feet long and weighs 1080 pounds.”
With that, the White Scale Purple Gold Knife automatically flew towards Lu Yun.
“White Scale Purple Gold Knife!”
A gleam flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes. He grabbed the hilt and immediately felt a sense of heaviness.
However, Lu Yun’s strength had long surpassed 10,000 pounds; a mere 1,080 pounds were hardly an issue for him.
After gripping the hilt, Lu Yun couldn’t resist swinging the blade a couple of times. Immediately, the air was filled with sword aura and the howling of gusty winds.
“Great blade, great blade!”
