Chapter 1960
As the strongest cultivator among the inner disciples, Liu Lujie's comprehension of swordsmanship had already reached an astounding level . The battle between I Am Low Profile with Zhu Yanzhi did not last too long, but Liu Lujie was still able to tell that the other party's swordsmanship was not beneath his!
To see through the openings of the Sword of Forlorn Sentiments with just a glance . . . this was something that even he would have difficulty doing!
Of course, he could not deny the possibility that the other party might have had some understanding of the sword art beforehand . After all, as long as one was an inner disciple and had sufficient Sword Pavilion Coins, one could freely access the book and jot down its contents .
But even if I Am Low Profile had managed to decipher the Sword of Forlorn Sentiments, he could not have done the same for Berserk Gale Swift Sword and the ten subsequent sword arts too!
Over the past several millenniums of development, the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion had gathered at least a hundred thousand sword arts that inner disciples could access . In order to stand out from others, most disciples would choose a unique sword art that was different from the rest .
Even if I Am Low Profile had coincidentally studied the Sword of Forlorn Sentiments and Berserk Gale Swift Sword before, he could not possibly have done the same for the remaining ten sword arts . Just what were the odds of him having learned the exact same sword arts as Zhu Yanzhi!
Putting everything aside, he would not even have had sufficient time to do so!
From that alone, it could be deduced that I Am Low Profile did not overcome those moves based on his familiarity with the sword arts . Instead, his comprehension of swordsmanship had reached an extremely high level that allowed him to see through the swordsmanship of others .
After that was the battle between I Am Low Profile and Wei Suifeng . This battle was even shorter . In a split second, a sword was already pressed against Wei Suifeng's neck .
"This person's fighting prowess is nowhere beneath mine!" Liu Lujie remarked with narrowed eyes as he tossed the Record Crystal back to Zhu Yanzhi .
"Indeed . I also thought that this person is quite remarkable, so I came to find you right after watching the video," Wang Jiandong said . "How is it? Are you interested in having a duel with him?"
"Of course!" Liu Lujie said as an intense fighting will ignited in his eyes . "My mastery of swordsmanship has already reached a bottleneck . I need to fight with someone of similar strength to me in order to trigger my potential and achieve a breakthrough . I believe that he'll be the best opponent for me!"
The reason he had suppressed his cultivation all this while was to sharpen his Sword Intent and further his comprehension of swordsmanship .
However, it was a pity that there was no one among the inner disciples who was a match for him anymore . When he was fighting against other inner disciples, he would have to intentionally hold himself back a little . Thus, he could not help but tremble in agitation upon seeing a fitting opponent before him .
He instinctively knew that this was a person who was worthy of having him fight at full strength!
"Who is this person though? If he has such a deep understanding of swordsmanship, it's weird that we have never met him before . Could he be a core disciple in disguise?" Wang Jiandong asked curiously .
"Unlikely," Liu Lujie replied with a shake of his head . "Core disciples hold their positions in high regard . None of them would be so bored as to come to the inner disciples' Ethereal Hall to flaunt their skills!"
"But . . . if there was really such a formidable figure among us, we surely would have met him by now given how long we have been in the sect," Wang Jiandong said in incomprehension .
Liu Lujie shared the same opinion .
Core disciples stood at the very peak of the sect, so they would not be so bored as to head to a lower Ethereal Hall just to tease a couple of inner disciples while lowering their standing at the same time .
"The Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion has been around for several thousand years now, and there are many inner disciples who are devoted to just cultivating their Sword Intent . They are nonchalant toward fame and fortune, and they are unwilling to bring attention to themselves . It might seem like I'm the number one expert of the inner disciples, but in truth, there are plenty of other disciples who don't pale in comparison to me when they exert their true strength," Liu Lujie said .
He was famed for being the number one expert of the inner disciples, but he did not allow that to get to his head .
There were many disciples in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion who were true sword ascetics . Just like ascetic monks, they put themselves in the toughest environments in order to temper their state of mind and Sword Intent, all in hopes of perfecting their understanding in the Way of the Sword!
Those people often disregard the ranking system, choosing to immerse themselves completely in their training after clearing the inner disciple examination . As a result, their rankings were not very high .
But those who were foolish enough to underestimate them would be in for a shock .
Even Liu Lujie himself would not dare get carelessness upon encountering one!
"Indeed, those sword ascetics are truly fearsome . " Wang Jiandong nodded in agreement .
Liu Lujie looked at Zhu Yanzhi and Wei Suifeng and instructed, "Inform me when I Am Low Profile appears in the Ethereal Hall once more . I wish to meet his sword!"
"Rest assured, Senior Liu . My men are already on the lookout . As soon as they spot him, they'll inform me right away," Zhu Yanzhi said with a smile .
All of a sudden, he flicked his wrist and took out a Communication Jade Token . Lowering his gaze to take a look, his eyes lit up in excitement . "Senior Liu, I just received word that I Am Low Profile has entered the Ethereal Hall!"
"Jiandong, let's head there together to take a look!"
Liu Lujie took out his Ethereal Token and swiftly connected to the Ethereal Hall . The others around him swiftly followed suit .
Hu! Hu! Hu! Hu!
The four of them appeared one after another in the Ethereal Hall, and they quickly made their way over to the dueling ring .
"Senior Liu, that person over there is I Am Low Profile," Zhu Yanzhi said as he pointed forward .
Liu Lujie looked in front of him and saw a young man standing in front the dueling ring with a bored look on his face . The young man was yawning endlessly, almost as if the battles that were happening on the stage were too dull for him .
Another disciple behind him was displeased with his disinterested attitude, so he lividly berated, "Why bother hanging around here when you aren't even interested in watching? You might as well free up this slot for someone who is more interested in the duel . . . "
The next moment, though, I Am Low Profile turned toward the disciple and smiled . "Do you want to make a bet with me? We don't have to play too big . A few hundred Sword Pavilion Coins will be enough!"
"You . . . " The disciple clenched his fists angrily .
Arrogant!
The other party was way too arrogant!
Even illegal brokers would only make dealings in the shadows, fearing that the elders would go after them . Yet, this fellow had actually asked such a question in public .
It was as if the rules of the sect meant nothing to him at all!
