"Have you comprehended the sword intent again?"
"Xiao Chen, you rascal, you haven't even said 'start'!" Zhang Qing cursed, clutching his chest.
"You did say it was good, twice," Xiao Chen shrugged. "In any case, you've already lost."
"Damn it." Zhang Qing knew he was in the wrong and could only admit defeat.
At that moment, many people looked at Xiao Chen with a sense of reverence in their eyes.
Teacher Zhou Tong rushed over immediately, her face filled with joy. "Xiao Chen, it seems you've made significant progress!"
"Teacher, this boxing technique is really impressive," Xiao Chen grinned, exuding the demeanor of a master.
"I told you, Elder Wu wouldn't let you down. Just look at Chen Anlin; that guy hasn't comprehended anything yet," Zhou Tong teased lightly.
"He doesn't have the qualifications to compare himself to me," Xiao Chen shook his head and then asked, "By the way, Teacher, I heard we're supposed to head to the Northern Border battlefield after this?"
"You have quite the ear for news." Zhou Tong nodded and explained, "It’s said that the pressure on the Northern Border battlefield is increasing, so they hope that your batch of newly graduated students can go."
"Hmph! The court is decaying; it's one thing if they lack ability themselves, but to use us as cannon fodder!" Xiao Chen scoffed.
"Xiao Chen, keep your voice down. If someone hears you, it’s a serious offense," Zhou Tong warned.
Xiao Chen shrugged. "Got it, Teacher. But does that mean Chen Anlin will be going too?"
"That's right; his parents are over there as well."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and murmured, "If they suffer a defeat, the Empress will definitely target his whole family."
"What did you say?"
"Ah, nothing." Xiao Chen smiled broadly as he looked around. "Hey, everyone else has already comprehended their techniques; only Chen Anlin is still struggling."
"Yeah, he clearly can't comprehend anything but is still trying to hold on. He's going to embarrass himself this time," Zhou Tong scoffed.
"Thank you for standing up for me just now," Zhao Yao said gratefully.
"Zhao Yao, I told you before: as long as I'm here, no one can bully you! No one!" Xiao Chen declared proudly.
The way Zhao Yao looked at Xiao Chen was almost intoxicating.
The air around them was thick with hormones.
Seeing this scene, Teacher Zhou Tong smiled knowingly. She was happy to see Zhao Yao and Xiao Chen together because it meant that lovers would eventually be united.
Just as Zhao Yao and Xiao Chen were exchanging sweet nothings, suddenly an astonishing sword intent erupted from Chen Anlin's direction.
Boom!
Chen Anlin opened his eyes, surrounded by powerful sword energy. This energy quickly gathered and formed into sword beams that swept across the entire area. Many people holding swords heard a buzzing sound, which represented a sense of submission.
Sensing the submission emanating from their swords, the students turned their attention to Chen Anlin. At this moment, he stood up, a look of joy on his face.
He had just successfully subdued five strands of sword intent, and combined with the one he had previously mastered, he now possessed six strands of sword intent. The technique known as the Nine to One Sword Method emphasized the importance of nine strands of sword intent merging into one to produce ultimate power. With six strands, he had already cultivated this technique to a significant level.
Whoosh!
All the sword beams were absorbed into his body. It was only then that the surrounding people reacted, exclaiming in surprise, "Sword intent! Young Master Chen, you have comprehended sword intent again?"
Could it be that the place Young Master Chen just comprehended was a sword technique?
Chen Anlin stood with his hands behind his back, his handsome face adorned with a light and gentle smile. "Indeed, I just comprehended a sword technique, and it is the strongest sword technique of an unparalleled Sword God."
The crowd erupted in excitement.
The sword technique of an unparalleled Sword God!
No one doubted that Chen Anlin was boasting because they had just witnessed him comprehend sword intent. The way the sword energy transformed into beams and converged together to form sword intent was unmistakable. Previously, Chen Anlin had already cultivated sword intent; now he had comprehended multiple strands of it again. It was undeniable—he was truly a Sword God.
How could this be? He actually comprehended the sword technique of an unparalleled Sword God.
Xiao Chen's eyes turned red with jealousy, his mind filled with one thought: Why didn't Elder Wu support him? Teacher Zhou not only asked him for help but also bought two jars of fine wine. That wine cost him two taels of silver!
You took everything and still won't help me; what do you mean by that? It's all because of Chen Anlin—how infuriating!
Suddenly, Chen Anlin turned to look at Xiao Chen, whose face was twisted in anger. "You were quite arrogant when you bullied Zhang Qing earlier; it seems you've forgotten that you lost to me last time."
"Chen Anlin, last time it was just you ambushing me!" Xiao Chen quickly retorted.
"Hehe, then what about your ambush on Zhang Qing just now? Wasn't that an ambush?" Chen Anlin looked at everyone and said.
Several people nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I thought so too. It's not okay for others to ambush, but you can?"
"I just said Zhang Qing lost unfairly. You ambushed him; what kind of hero does that make you?"
"Ambushing is one thing, but to have the audacity to criticize others?"
"What's wrong with this guy?"
【Ding! Xiao Chen's character is being questioned, and luck points are being deducted.】
Hearing the chatter around him, Xiao Chen's face turned green.
Are these people out of their minds? Yes, he had ambushed, but there was a reason behind it—he just wanted to end the fight more efficiently. And Chen Anlin? He was just bullying others with his strength.
"Alright, Xiao Chen, no more nonsense. You let someone use one hand earlier, so I'll let you use one hand too. How about a challenge?" Chen Anlin grinned lightly.
Having just obtained the Sword God’s inheritance, he not only gained sword intent but also reached the peak of the seventh rank in cultivation!
So now, fighting Xiao Chen felt like child's play.
Xiao Chen's face flashed with a hint of fear and unwillingness.
The fear came from knowing he was absolutely no match for Chen Anlin. The unwillingness stemmed from the thought that if he backed down now, how would Teacher Zhou, Zhao Yao, and those ordinary students look at him in the future?
Damn it! To embarrass me in front of everyone!
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and endured!
At this moment, he could only endure.
"Hmph, I'm still injured from before and haven't recovered yet," Xiao Chen explained.
