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!
