The Sword Qi is Near’s sword hum echoed through the sky. If it weren’t for the master’s order for it to obediently stay in Hidden Mountain, it might have directly broken through the seal on Hidden Mountain to have hundreds of rounds of intense fights with Ping Shanhai.

This indirectly showed that Ping Shanhai was victorious.

The Demon Sect had lost the first round of this sword challenge, marking its first defeat in many years.

Ping Shanhai was an Aquatic Swordsman, and his recent victory was aided by the heavy snow within a radius of hundreds of miles. One could say he took full advantage of the opportune time and place.

But no matter how one puts it, winning is winning.

Ping Shanhai had suffered a minor defeat three years ago, but now with his breakthrough in swordsmanship, his victory isn’t surprising at all.

On the small hill, the elders with deep swordsmanship cultivation base cheerfully said, “We won.”

Soon, whether it was disciples of One Sword Mountain or Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, they all let out cheers.

Not to say that they had lost themselves with pride, but it had been too many years since One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain were suppressed by the Demon Sect!

One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain have always been regarded as the Sacred Land of the Sword Path for all sword cultivators. When swords or sword cultivation comes to mind, the first thoughts are of One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain!

Until many years ago, the appearance of Yan Li changed everything…

Later, even after Yan Li shut himself away from the world, the half-way Sword Qi he left on Lead Peak remained undefeatable!

Not even in every three-yearly gamble had One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain ever come up victorious.

It seemed that in the Way of the Sword, the Demon Sect had become the first of the present era, while the once brilliantly illustrious two Sword Sects were merely there to emphasize the strength of the Demon Sect’s Sword Cultivator.

This, to the people of One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword

Mountain, was both humiliating and a driving force for them to push forward.

Although it wasn’t a particularly honorable thing that Swordsman Lord won half a sword with only one sword, at least… there was hope in this gamble!

Many people then turned their sights to the man who sat alone at the end.

It’s odd that people from One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain usually sit in two different groups, but this man sat in the middle, maintaining the same distance from the disciples of both factions, like a dividing line.

Since the division of One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, he was the first disciple accepted by both sects.

The reason was simple, his parents were from each of those mountains. After competing for many years, they would cross swords every time they met, and even a mere conversation would lead to quarrels. Somehow their battlefield always ended up in bed.

After several such unpardonable confrontations, they successfully gave birth to a boy.

Actually, there were plenty of emotional entanglements between the men and women of One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain. This was not the first time sword cultivators from these two sects came together. The saga of love and hate between the two great Sword Sects continues!

What is astounding is the boy’s extraordinary potential!

With nine Ripples of Enlightenment, and an Innate Sword Body!

This was equivalent to a player with Enlightenment 9+ Swordsmanship Aptitude 9!

As both One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain insisted that he was their disciple, the situation was resolved by accepting him as the Swordsman Successor, the only one in the world at present.

Since One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain were split from Sword Mountain, he, being the Swordsman Heir, naturally belongs to both sects.

There were those among the silly gamers who joked that he was a scumbag who was stepping on two boats at the same time.

In reality, he was indeed a scum, extremely frivolous!

The man’s name was Ye Sui’an, one of the future World Protagonists.

He also had a distinctive feature: being exceptionally good-looking.

How handsome was he?

When the players voted for the most handsome NPC in “Heavenly Dust,” he ranked first and had countless fangirls! Many late-stage visual fanaticsdreamed of being enticed by him even once.

When voting for the most beautiful NPC, he also surprisingly made it into the top five!

He also had his fair share of male fans, cough, cough, cough.

As One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain were situated in the west, he was also known as West State’s most handsome man.

Scumbags always possess certain merits, which has the ability to make people like them. Therefore, although he belonged to both sects, he never found himself unaccepted by both.

On the contrary, whether they are disciples from One Sword Mountain or Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, at least in the field of swordsmanship, they all deeply respect him.

Once he truly matures, he might even become the chief disciple of both sects! The reason why the disciples are excited at this moment is because they believe that Ye Sui’an can win in the newbie battle!

Ye Sui’an just turned eighteen this year, and he only started his formal cultivation at the age of sixteen, fulfilling the requirements.

As for what he was doing before he turned sixteen, the ordinary disciples naturally didn’t know. They also didn’t know why he should only start cultivating from sixteen, but this was a decision made jointly by the leaders of the two sects.

A gentle breeze blew, and the swordsman Ping Shanhai returned to the hillside.

After coming back, he immediately sat down cross-legged to recover his spiritual power.

Because it’s still his turn for the second round of competition.

In a moment, it will be him challenging the sword cultivator sent by the Demon Sect.

If he can still win, then they will win this gamble. If he loses, then the burden will fall on Ye Sui’an’s shoulders.

The back mountain, the Small Study.

The third senior brother, Zhuge Lai Fu, looked at Lu Xun and said, “Little Junior Brother, it all depends on you now.”

He seemed to have great confidence in the outcome of the second round.

After all, if they lose the second round as well, there will no longer be any need for Lu Xun to enter the stage.

Lu Xun nodded solemnly, even if he was already loyal to the Demon Sect, just the rich rewards of the mission would motivate him to give it his all!

“Third Senior Brother, since Second Senior Sister continues to meditate in the bamboo forest, who will replace me to fight for the Demon Sect?” asked Lu Xun.

“You’ll find out soon.” Zhuge Lai Fu smiled and continued, “Little Junior Brother, do you want to go to Lead Peak? With your cultivation base, standing on the back mountain, you might miss the Sword Inquiry later. As a natural sword embryo, watching this Sword Inquiry might give you insights.” Lu Xun nodded immediately, saying, “Let’s go to Lead Peak then.”

About gaining insights or not, it was unlikely. He just wanted to watch the excitement.

After all, staying at the back mountain would only allow him to listen to the transcriptions from Third Senior Brother and Mao Nanbei. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable to watch the live event up on Lead Peak?

“Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Sister, wait for me, I’ll go call Little Chan.”

Lu Xun said, then rushed towards the kitchen.

He was just going to watch the excitement, but Lin Chan was a bona fide natural sword embryo. She might just gain some insights from watching the battle, right?

Not long after, this scene appeared on Lead Peak:

Everyone from the back mountain flew on a paper crane to Lead Peak to watch the battle, with Lin Chan even carrying a pot of hot porridge.

It seemed like they were going to watch while drinking the porridge.

“There’s no help for it, Little Chan made this midnight snack, it’s impolite for us not to drink it, right?”

Lu Xun didn’t think it was a big deal anyway. Why be so tense? Isn’t it good to be a porridge-drinking spectator?

He has an excellent mindset, the more critical the moment, the more relaxed he is. That’s an essential attribute for the veterans, who can stay calm under pressure.

After about an hour, Ping Shanhai had almost recovered to his peak state.

Although he only performed one strike just now, the consumption was obviously severe. Even with the assistance of the elixir, it took him more than an hour to adjust to the best state.

He stood up again and flew towards Lead Peak, once again declaring:

“Ping Shanhai from One Sword Mountain, humbly asking for further instruction!”

After some time, no one on the Demon Sect’s side responded.

It’s not that the Demon Sect was dismissive of him, but the person he challenged… was a bit slow to respond.
