"Haha, you disciples of the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect are indeed the weakest. You are simply unable to withstand a single blow. I really don’t understand how you became a tenth-rank force!"
"Even as outer disciples of a tenth-rank force, why is there such a huge gap? It would be better if you at least had one capable disciple. Why are you all so weak?"
It had been half a month since the outer disciples' competition. During this time, Ling Dao had been diligently cultivating. With the sect leader's order, everything had been calm. Even if the elders wanted to deal with Ling Dao, they had to wait for some time.
Now, in the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect's training ground, there were disciples from three sects. However, many of the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect's disciples were lying on the ground, beaten up. The disciples from the other two sects were loudly mocking them.
The Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect, True Martial Sword Sect, and Black Tortoise Sword Sect were the three major tenth-rank forces in Anshan County. Among them, the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect was the weakest, while the True Martial Sword Sect and Black Tortoise Sword Sect were slightly stronger. However, the largest force in Anshan County was the ninth-rank Heavy Sword Sect.
This time, the elders of the True Martial Sword Sect and Black Tortoise Sword Sect brought their outer disciples, claiming it was for friendly sparring, but in reality, it was to humiliate the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect. Every year after the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect's outer disciples' competition, the True Martial Sword Sect and Black Tortoise Sword Sect would come to cause trouble.
The Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect did not confine itself. Sparring with disciples from other sects was a normal thing. Even if they knew their disciples would not win, they still had to fight. How could one become a strong person without experiencing the baptism of blood and fire?
"It's just a friendly sparring. Didn't your disciples from the two sects go too far?"
The outer disciples lying on the ground were already seriously injured and could not even get up. Some were groaning in pain, with their wounds still bleeding. If it were just a friendly sparring, how could they have gone so far?
"Too far? I don’t think so! It’s just that your Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect’s disciples are really too weak!"
"What can I say? With your Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect’s bunch of trash, in a few decades, your sect will probably become a third-rate force!"
The elders of the True Martial Sword Sect and Black Tortoise Sword Sect all laughed. Their disciples' heavy-handedness was indeed their instigation. If they didn’t want to provoke a war among the three major forces, they would have let their disciples kill.
"Rubbish! Who dares to call our Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect’s disciples trash? If you have the guts, fight me!"
Li Shengxiong walked over from a distance. In half a month, Xia Xinzhao had already broken through to the True Qi Realm, as had Teng Shaofeng, Wei Jingshan, and Lu Hong. Among the current outer disciples, there were indeed not many who were strong.
"It’s Li Shengxiong!"
"With Li Shengxiong here, he will definitely defeat these people!"
In the outer disciples' competition, although Li Shengxiong lost to Ling Dao, no one underestimated him. His strength was definitely not bad; it was just that Ling Dao was too strong. Moreover, after half a month, Li Shengxiong's strength was clearly much stronger than before.
"Oh? Finally, someone decent?"
From the Black Tortoise Sword Sect, a robust young man walked out. Li Shengxiong, tall and imposing, exuded a steady aura, naturally attracting the young man's attention. The young man was named Ke Zhinan, ranking third in the Black Tortoise Sword Sect.
"Your words are quite big. Let me see how your sword skills are!"
The Black Tortoise Sword Sect and True Martial Sword Sect were also sword cultivation sects. The Black Tortoise Sword Sect focused on defense, while the True Martial Sword Sect focused on technique. Ke Zhinan sneered and walked towards Li Shengxiong, having already seen the large sword on Li Shengxiong's back.
"Receive my sword!"
Li Shengxiong did not waste any words, swinging his large sword like a door panel towards Ke Zhinan. Li Shengxiong's sword was extremely powerful, and Ling Dao had personally experienced it. After half a month, his sword skills and strength were even more formidable.
"Good move, but you can’t break my defense!"
Ke Zhinan's long sword swung fiercely, layer upon layer. Even Li Shengxiong's sword could not break through his defense and was blocked by him.
Li Shengxiong, not believing in evil, attacked again, one sword after another, but each was blocked by Ke Zhinan. The Black Tortoise Sword Sect's sword skills focused on defense, and Ke Zhinan was one of the best, leaving Li Shengxiong helpless.
"Just so-so, lie down for me!"
Ke Zhinan sneered, swinging his sword again and again, forming a small mountain that pressed down on Li Shengxiong. His timing was perfect, and Li Shengxiong felt a massive force, followed by a pain in his chest, spitting out a mouthful of blood and falling to the ground.
"How is this possible? Li Shengxiong lost so easily?"
"We have to admit, that Black Tortoise Sword Sect disciple's sword skills are indeed formidable!"
"What should we do now? Are we, the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect’s disciples, really inferior to the Black Tortoise Sword Sect and True Martial Sword Sect?"
These Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect disciples were all filled with anger and frustration. Being bullied so badly in their own training ground was extremely embarrassing. Li Shengxiong also looked grim, but he had no words to say, as he had indeed lost to Ke Zhinan.
"Receive my sword!"
At this moment, Xie Ling'er also entered the field. Her sword skills were faster than half a month ago. Seeing her appearance, many Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect disciples were enlightened. Xie Ling'er had also performed brilliantly in the competition.
"Your sword is indeed fast, but your sword skills are too poor. Speed alone is not enough."
From the True Martial Sword Sect, a young girl named Song Qingyan walked out. She calmly swung her sword, and just as Xie Ling'er's sword was about to reach her, a firebird suddenly appeared in front of her, swallowing Xie Ling'er's long sword.
Of course, the firebird was not real; it was just formed by Song Qingyan's sword skills. Song Qingyan's sword was not as fast as Xie Ling'er's, but her sword skills' technique was far superior.
"Even if your sword is fast, you can’t hurt me, but I can hurt you!"
Song Qingyan smiled, and her sword skills transformed into a fierce tiger, charging at Xie Ling'er. Xie Ling'er instantly swung her sword thirteen times, but the tiger was unaffected. She let out a闷哼 (muffled groan) and was thrown back, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her face pale.
"The disciples of the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect are indeed all trash, not even one decent one!"
"All of you are useless, a complete disgrace to the True Martial Sword Sect, which is on par with the Sky-Cleaving Sword Sect!"
