Eternal Reverence - Chapter 137

Chapter 137
The arena was flooded with people, but a majority of the inner sect disciples were just here to spectate . Only 20% of them were qualified to enter the tournament .

“Let me try . ”

An eighth level Origin Realm inner sect disciple came out from the group of testees .

He clenched his sword with both hands and cleaved at the black iron ore .

Clang!

Sparks burst forth, but only left behind a white mark on the surface of the black iron ore .

“Disqualified . Next . ”

An inner sect deacon in charge of the screening test declared .

It was a certain difficulty to leave an inch deep mark on the black iron ore . Several inner sect disciples who were at the peak state of the Origin Realm, somehow managed to leave a mark of half an inch .

“Too difficult! I think that not many inner sect disciples can actually achieve the requirement?”

“My estimation is numbered at 200 . ”

“200? Che! At most 100 . ”

Within the inner sect, no one else used ores to practice their sword arts with except for first grade inner sect disciples .

Even for first grade inner sect disciples, they would generally use an ore which was at most a yellow class, high-tier .

No one would have expected such difficulty in leaving an inch deep mark on a yellow class peak-tier, black iron ore .

“Let me have a go . ”

The one who spoke was Zhao Mingyue .

In order to participate in the screening test, Zhao Mingyue consumed a half mystic class pill one month ago and raised her cultivation level to the seventh level of the Origin Realm .

Clang!

Sparks burst forth, but only a shallow mark was left on the black iron ore .

Zhao Mingyue shook her head and stepped down from the stage .

The results were still disqualification .

Inner sect disciples who fulfilled the screening test requirement stepped up one after another . Each and everyone of them went off stage with depressed expressions, one after another .

Soon enough, almost 2000 testees have failed .

The previous 10 Prodigies of the outer sect had all been disqualified except for Yu Wen Tian .

“It is Yu Wen Tian’s turn . I wonder if he can qualify . ”

“He should be able to do it . He is after all of 5 star bone frame and his cultivation isn’t weak either . He is already at the eighth level of the Origin Realm . ”

As the spectators discussed, Yu Wen Tian arrived in front of the black iron ore .

With the sword out of its sheath, Yu Wen Tian exerted his maximum force to cleave at the black iron ore .

Clank!

Shards flew as a mark of that was slightly more than an inch appeared .

“Yu Wen Tian, qualified . ”

The inner sect deacon in charge nodded with a slight smile .

As of now, Yu Wen Tian was the only qualified testee under the ninth level of the Origin Realm . It was quite a remarkable feat .

“Is this what a 5 star bone frame can do? I definitely cannot compare to it . ” Gao Changtian sighed .


Out of the previous outer sect 10 Prodigies, only Yu Wen Tian qualified . The rest of them still weren’t tempered enough .

“Haha, allow me . ” A figure landed on the stage .
“It’s Xiao Libie, Xiao shixiong . ”

“Xiao shixiong is definitely going to qualify . But I wonder how deep a mark he leave on the black iron ore . ”

Xiao Libie’s fame wasn’t inferior to Dominion Sword, Liu Wuhuang . Some even say that he is the inner sect’s no . 1 disciple .

Of course, this title was just a temporary one .

Xiao Libie’s strength was accumulated by time . His 4 star bone frame wasn’t as superior as Liu Wuhuang’s or Yu Wen Tian’s 5 star bone frame .



Clank!

Xiao Libie was indeed worthy of the inner sect no . 1 disciple title . His blade left a two inch deep mark and was the deepest so far .

“It’s my turn . ”

Chen Fanghua’s toes touches on the ground as she floated onto the stage like a drifting cloud .

“Break!”

Chen Fanghua cultivate two different mystic class, low-tier sword arts . One of them was the group attack sword art, Myriad Blossom Sword Style . The other was the Flying Blossom Sword Style .

The Flying Blossom Sword Style had a high attack power, a single blade was enough to etch a slightly deeper mark that went pass one inch .

“Chen Fanghua, qualified . ”

Hearing the verdict from the inner sect deacon, Chen Fanghua let out a breath of relief .

“Chen shijie, congratulations . ” As Chen Fanghua returned, Li Fuchen congratulated .

Chen Fanghua said, “It’s my luck . ”

As of now, only 30+ disciples have qualified . The numbers was much lower than expected, which was why she was rather nervous about the result .

“Bai shixiong is going up . ”
“Luo shixiong is going up too . ”

“Too strong, how can they only be at the Origin Realm?”

The Bai shixiong and Luo shixiong mentioned by the spectators, each left a mark that was close to two inches deep .

They were undoubtedly of the overwhelming class .

“The inner sect sure has a lot of hidden dragons and crouching tigers!” Li Fuchen raised his brows .

He felt that Xiao Libie had comprehended sword intent . There wasn’t any during normal times, but when Xiao Libie executed his sword move, Li Fuchen could sense a subtle wave of sword intent .

It meant that Xiao Libie was most likely hiding his true ability .

The Bai and Luo shixiong everyone was mentioning may perhaps not have comprehended sword intent, but they were most probably close .



If not, it wouldn’t be possible to leave a two inches deep mark on the black iron ore .

After all, this wasn’t a matter of simple addition . The increase in difficulty was at least a few folds in order to leave a two inch mark instead of a one inch mark .

“Weak, a bunch of weaklings . ” Dominion Sword, Liu Wuhuang walked out from the crowd .

“Dominion Sword Liu Wuhuang is finally going to make his move . ”

“Leave Sword, Dominion Sword, White Water Sword, and Mountain Creek Sword . These four shixiongs are undoubtedly the inner sect’s top 4 experts . ”

Everyone’s expression became excited .

This four names represents:

Leave Sword, Xiao Libie .

(TL note: Libie, literally means take your leave)

Dominion Sword, Liu Wuhuang .

Only allowed on Creativenovels . com

White Water Sword, Bai Tao .

(TL note: Bai Tao means white wave)

Mountain Creek Sword, Luo Yishan .

(TL note: Yishan means one mountain)

The ability of the four of them were at the peak state of the Origin Realm . Their names were rather famous even in the outside world .

All four of them had each slayed an Earth Realm martial artist .

“I wonder what level of ability Liu shidi has achieved?”

Xiao Libie sized up Liu Wuhuang with curiosity .

Three steps away from the black iron ore, Liu Wuhuang drew his black iron sword .



“Everyone take a good look at this . ”

Liu Wuhuang roared in his heart and cleaved at the black iron ore .

Pfff!

Producing a sound different than the rest, Liu Wuhuang’s sword intent made a sound that seemingly aimed to destroy the ore .

“Sword intent!”

Xiao Libie’s eyes widened .

Because he too comprehended a sword intent, he obviously felt it when Liu Wuhuang utilized sword intent earlier . It was an extremely dominating sword intent, one that could conquer any obstacle .

Soaring Cloud Sword intent .

Soaring Cloud Beheading Sword Style is similar to the Meteor Sword Style, both of which walked on the extremity of sword arts . The sword intent of the Soaring Cloud Beheading Sword Style was very domineering and gave off the feeling that it could cleave anything under the heavens .

“2 . 8 inches, qualified . ”

The inner sect deacon in charge of the screening test was shocked too . He who was an Earth Realm martial artist had yet to comprehend any sword intent . He didn’t expect an inner sect disciple to actually comprehend sword intent .

Absolutely unbelievable .

“Did I hear it wrong?! 2 . 8 inches?”

“Fearsome . I would like to ask who is a rival for Dominion Sword shixiong? I’m afraid even Xiao shixiong can’t win . ”

With Chen Fanghua and Zhao Mingyue included, everyone took a deep breath .

There was a drastic difference between having the ability to use sword intent or not .

With the comprehension of sword intent, a sword art’s lethality would be increased by at least two fold . It would overwhelm the opponent, leaving them no room to defend .

“Li shidi, you have provoke someone you shouldn’t have!” Chen Fanghua said to Li Fuchen .

“It’s my turn now . ” Li Fuchen smiled and stepped up to the stage .

So what if you comprehended sword intent?

There are different depths of sword intent and different levels too .
