Chapter 534 - Training (1/2)

”Experience, huh? I agree.” Meixiu nodded.

”Hm? Are you also interested in something from this place?” Yuan asked her.

”Yes, I want to try out archery,” she responded.

”Archery? That's unexpected.”

”I know, but I think it will be useful one day,” she said.

And she continued, ”What about you? It has to be the sword, right?”

”Yes, but that's not all I want to do. I also want to try out the other weapons, such as the spear and the rod. After all, the more I understand these weapons, the easier it will be for me when I have to fight opponents using these weapons..”

”That makes sense.” Meixiu nodded.

Sometime later, they entered the immortal cave and unpacked their luggage.

Once that was all done, they made their way back to the training area.

”L-Look at that person wearing the black mask! Isn't that Player Yuan?!”

The disciples around them quickly took notice of their presence due to their unique appearance.

”Is that really Player Yuan? What if he's an imposter? There are plenty of people like him out there. In fact, anyone can claim to be Player Yuan by wearing a mask!”

Although some people stared at Yuan in awe, there were also those that doubted his identity.

After all, Player Yuan was an incredibly mysterious individual whose identity isn't known by seemingly anyone.

Furthermore, there have been far too many people faking to be Player Yuan— too many to count, and most of them do it to gain fame, or simply to obtain gifts from others, as everyone was seemingly trying to curry favors with Player Yuan, hoping to learn his identity.

Of course, due to how common fake Player Yuans were, it was only logical for people to suspect the current 'Player Yuan'.

”But didn't he fight against Elder Xi and win? Who could possibly defeat a grand elder besides Player Yuan?” Another disciple asked.

”Hmph! As if you can call that spar a fight! Elder Xi wasn't even using his full strength, and that person had been dodging the entire time! You cannot call that a fight! It was more of a performance than anything!”

Sometime later, Yuan and Meixiu arrived at the training building.

Yuan went straight into one of the sword training rooms and asked the instructor there, ”Can I borrow a sword? I'd like to train with it.”

”You want to practice with the sword?” The instructor was baffled by his request.

After snapping out of his daze, the instructor pointed to the side of the room where a couple of weapon shelves holding swords were located and said, ”Go ahead. Most of them are wooden swords with metal as its interior so it feels like a real sword. If you want a real sword… You'll need permission from the grand elders.”

”I understand.” Yuan nodded and proceeded to walk over to the shelves before picking a sword randomly.

”Wow, this thing does feel pretty heavy. I am not used to feeling this much weight,” he said after picking it up and swinging it around a couple of times.

”But you wield an even larger sword in Cultivation Online,” Meixiu said with her eyebrows raised.

”The sword may be big, and it may seem heavy, but it actually weighs almost to nothing for me since I am its master,” he said.

After picking up the sword and getting comfortable with it, Yuan said to Meixiu, ”Can you bring me to a spacious area that doesn't have many people?”
