Chapter 505 - The Average Victor
Chapter 505: The Average Victor
“Senior, please go ahead.”
Luo Changxi looked at Jian Haomiao with a very serious expression.
Seeing this scene, Jian Haomiao put away his frivolous look. He opened his mouth and said, “Let’s talk about Bai Tianjiao first. I’m sure you know more about him than I do. Indeed, Bai Tianjiao is an out-and-out genius. In the future, when he advances to the nascent soul realm, it will be the day where he soars to the sky!
“However, even though I know all this, why do I still think that he can’t beat that brat, Victor? Do you know the reason?”
“I don’t know.”
“I say, Guan Xing. Didn’t you tell your precious disciple?”
“Not yet. Why don’t you tell her, Brother Hao Miao?”
Old Man Guan Xing shook his head and smiled. He looked like he was watching a chess game, not uttering a single word.
“Alright, little girl, listen well. There are four reasons as to why I said what I said.
“First, Victor has inherited the ancient path of strength cultivation. I don’t know if you’ve heard of the ancient strength cultivation, but let me put it this way. Even if he doesn’t have a cultivation base, he’s not weaker than a soul formation realm expert. As for that kid’s strength cultivation… hmm… his talent isn’t bad. He’s never lost a fight against a nascent soul beast king.
“Second, Victor’s talent isn’t necessarily inferior to Bai Tianjiao’s. I saw with my own eyes when he learned his opponent’s cultivation technique in just 15 minutes. Furthermore, his proficiency is at the transformation stage. His talent is no less than Bai Tianjiao’s!
“Thirdly, he is a sword cultivator, a lawless sword cultivator! Just based on this point alone, Bai Tianjiao is already inferior to him.”
“Senior, you’re so strange. What kind of reason is this?”
“Tsk, why are you so anxious? Listen to me. I once sensed a peak nascent soul realm cultivator from the desolate mountain in the Central Plains. I believe that Old Man Guan Xing must have sensed it as well.
“Of course, along with the aura of that peak nascent soul realm expert came an extremely sharp unparalleled sword intent!
“I specially rushed to the Central Plains to investigate.
“When I arrived at the Central Plains, the aura of that peak nascent soul realm expert had long disappeared and was torn into two halves. The reason was precisely that unparalleled sword intent!
“Litle girl, guess who released this sword intent?”
“Could it be Victor?”
“That’s right! These few days, I have carefully observed this brat’s sword intent. Tsk tsk tsk, what an unruly b*stard!
“However, the more unruly and dangerous a sword cultivator was, the more qualified they are to nurture an unparalleled sword intent!
“Just these three reasons alone are enough to prove that Bai Tianjiao, that brat, is destined to be inferior to Victor!
“Of course, more importantly, due to certain reasons, I can’t tell you the fourth reason for the time being. However, you will know in the future.”
After saying that, Jian Haomiao finished the remaining wine in one gulp. After that, he laughed loudly and disappeared from the Guan Xing Tower.
“Master, is Victor really as powerful as senior said?”
“Silly disciple, he lied to you!”
“I knew it. How could anyone in the core formation realm be a match for Bai Tianjiao?”
Luo Changxi pursed her lips and turned around to leave the tower. Old Man Guan Xing only smiled and said nothing.
..
“Old man, the Prodigy Tournament is about to start. When are you coming to pick me up? Do you really expect me to bring my little wife all the way to the Northern Plains? How long will that take?”
“Also, old man, Can I return the goods? This Princess Linyang whines all day long. It’s so annoying. Why don’t we just send her back to the Western Plains Dynasty? Maybe we can exchange her for a few treasures. What do you think?”
Putting down the brush, Victor handed the letter to the paper kite and let it fly.
There were only six days left until the Prodigy Tournament. However, they had not even left the Southern Plains. It was impossible for them to participate in the Prodigy Tournament on time. They had no choice but to contact Jian Haomiao like this.
However, at this moment, Victor suddenly felt killing intent. He turned around and realized that it was from Yan Linyang.
“Who did you just say whines every day?!”
“How can you peek at my letter? Aren’t you being dishonest?”
“You’re secretly slandering me! Are you not allowing me to read them?!”
“I wasn’t! I’m just being honest.”
Victor curled his lips and allowed Yan Linyang’s fist to hit his shoulder, but he was still unmoved.
Just as the two of them were flirting, Jian Haomiao suddenly appeared.
“I almost forgot about you.”
“Old man, you’re finally here! Quickly bring me to the Northern Plains! Tsk tsk tsk, ever since I was young, I’ve never been to the Northern Plains!”
“Isn’t that normal?”
Jian Haomiao laughed lightly and pulled out the wooden sword at his waist. It turned into a small boat that sailed with the wind.
Seeing this scene, Victor carried Princess Linyang and flew onto the small boat.
“Tsk tsk tsk you brat, you’re really lucky. If I was as lucky as you are when I was younger, the Jian Haomiao we have today might not exist!”
“In all seriousness, can I beat Bai Tianjiao? Princess Linyang has been talking about Bai Tianjiao in front of me for the past two days, making me lose my confidence.”
“It’s hard to say. Whether you can beat Bai Tianjiao or not depends on the rules set by Old Man Guan Xing.”
“What do you mean?”
“If Old Man Guan Xing doesn’t have a rule that forbids killing, you should be able to beat Bai Tianjiao. If there’s such a rule, hehe, then Bai Tianjiao’s methods are endless. You won’t be able to gain an advantage.”
As he spoke, Jian Haomiao casually swung his sword, slashing at the mountain rocks below. Instantly, the entire mountain was neatly split into two halves!
Seeing this scene, Victor smacked his lips. He reckoned that if he used the Fusion Technique, it would probably work out.
Jian Haomiao seemed to have seen through Victor’s thoughts. He pointed at the mountain peak below and said, “Slash once. Don’t hold back.”
“Are you sure?”
Hearing this, Victor revealed a smile.
Without waiting for Jian Haomiao’s reply, Victor slapped the scabbard. The Rose Sword immediately flew out and sent itself into Victor’s hand.
In the next moment, Victor’s aura was restrained and was merged with his sword intent. It was as if he had suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly, Victor opened his eyes and two rays of light shot out. With a slash of his sword, the huge mountain below was cut into two halves!
Seeing this scene, Yan Linyang could not hide her shock and looked at Victor with even more admiration.
Unexpectedly, Victor smacked his lips and muttered unhappily, “I made a mistake. I was a little distracted toward the end. Otherwise, the power would’ve been at least 30% stronger.”
“Not bad. At the very least, Bai Tianjiao would need some effort to handle your sword attacks. However, this doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have the means to counter you. Your sword intent still needs to be refined and honed. This is a good opportunity for me to teach you how to refine the sword intent.”
After saying that, Jian Haomiao turned around and said nothing else.
However, if Lian Hua was here right now, she would be able to discover the incomparable shock in Jian Haomiao’s heart!
‘How is this possible? Could it be that this brat is actually a genius in swordsmanship and I just happened to discover him?’
