Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this moment, everyone in the garden fell silent.
Ye Wenxi’s eyes sparkled. Little Heavy Mountain at her waist was constantly trembling as if it wanted to immediately jump out and join the battle. “Yinping lost and was defeated by someone of a lower realm. She must be reeling very aggrievea,” Niaaam ye said gently.
“It’s not an injustice to lose. When one’s realm is low, one uses techniques to make up for it. An Le’s swordsmanship is very exquisite. It’s actually not surprising that Yinping lost.”
Ye Wenxi analyzed.
Madam Ye smiled. With her experience, she could naturally tell that An Le had completely crushed Ye Yinping in terms of technique.
“Lin’an is too comfortable. An Le has been cultivating an invincible aura all the way here, and Yinping has been blinded by Lin’an’s prosperity recently and is a little playful…”
“This might also be one of the aspects of defeat.” Ye Wenxi said.
In the Water Pavilion.
In Ye Wenxi’s Red Sleeves Spear, the Little Sacred Token fluctuated and healed her fatal injuries, allowing her to recover completely.
“I lost.”
Ye Yinping held Red Sleeves and grinned, but she was not too disappointed.
She did not accumulate an invincible aura. Failure… was not something unacceptable to her.
Moreover, she had not won the spar with her sister, Ye Wenxi. Therefore, it was normal for her to fail.
However, the defeat this time was a little tragic.
Madam Hua’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the central sword of Niwan Palace trembled. She stared at An Le and felt many differences.
An Le’s mental power did not seem to be just the mental power born from visualizing the Sword Waterfall.
It was more condensed and majestic as if it was as heavy as a mountain and ethereal..
Such mental power was definitely not something that could be condensed by visualizing the Sword Waterfall Diagram.
Could it be that An Le had obtained a higher-grade Spirit Refinement cultivation method than the Sword Waterfall Diagram?
Madam Hua thought about how Li You’an had brought An Le out of Lin’an these few days. Perhaps Li You’an had taught him a Visualization Diagram on the Spirit Refinement.
However, it had to be said that the strength of An Le’s Primordial Spirit was not much weaker than the Primordial Spirit of a fifth-realm Oblivion cultivator.
“Thanks for letting me win.”
An Le put away his sword and cupped his fists at Ye Yinping with a smile.
Ye Yinping waved her hand. “Young Master An defeated me because my skills were inferior. There’s nothing to say. However, it won’t be so easy for my sister to win.”
“If you’re only at this level today, you’ll definitely lose to my sister, Ye Wenxi.” Ye Yinping said.
When An Le heard this, he turned to look at the young girl, Ye Wenxi, who had given her Age Qi to him for free. The young girl smiled virtuously and looked harmless.
However, An Le knew that this woman was a ruthless character who had taken dozens of lives with a single sword strike. She was an existence who had been trained in the frontier fortress battlefield.
An Le nodded slightly as a form of greeting. With a thought, he began to absorb Age Qi from everyone present.
It was rare for him to encounter so many cultivators. He could not waste them, so he naturally had to absorb them.
Now that An Le’s cultivation level had increased, the amount of Age Qi he absorbed had also increased.
He could absorb five strands of Age Qi from one person. He could absorb a total of five people. In other words, he could accumulate 25 strands of Age Qi a day.
Of course, sometimes, An Le could not absorb all 25 strands of Age Qi.
After the battle ended, Madam Ye walked out at the right time and invited everyone to the guest hall.
After drinking a few cups of tea, An Le did not stay long. He bade farewell to everyone and left the Ye Residence, planning to return to summarize and organize his gains from this battle.
There was not much time left for him. He had to seize the time to improve himself.
Madam Hua did not leave. She seemed to be planning to discuss something with Madam Ye.
As the Hall Examination approached, An Le was not the only one who felt pressured. Madam Hua was also under pressure.
Lin’an’s sky seemed to be covered by a sunset cloud that covered the sky.
An Le left the Ye Residence with the Green Mountain and Ink Pool Sword at his waist. After the battle, his aura became more and more different. After winning another battle, the invincible aura he gathered became even stronger.
He did not continue to challenge the seventh place on the Little Sacred
Ranking. After the battle, organizing his gains was the most important.
When they arrived at Yanchun, under the enthusiastic greeting of the female shopkeeper, they fetched a pot of old yellow wine and went to the beef shop in Dingya Alley to cut a catty of sauced beef.
He passed by the Imperial Ancestral Temple and called out to the old man, but there was no response. Clearly, he was not in the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
An Le didn’t mind and returned to his courtyard.
After setting up the tables and chairs, they drank wine and ate meat.
The feedback of the [Fearless Heart] Dao Fruit surged out again, and a clear qi flowed throughout his body.
It made An Le’s Inner Core, which had just developed Mystic Intent, instantly strengthen a little.
An Le’s Primordial Spirit had been refined to an extremely mature state. Now, he was probably not far from the fifth realm.
However, even with the enhancement of the Eternal Prodigy talent and the help of visualizing the Green Mountain Future Sword Qi, it was still quite difficult to let the Spirit Refinement Realm step into the fifth realm so quickly. He drank one glass of wine after another, eating mouthful after mouthful of meat.
An Le’s mental state slowly calmed down as he drank and ate meat.
He naturally knew that the Hall Examination had been brought forward three days ago. On the way back from Qingbo Street, everyone was discussing this
matter.
An Le did not find this strange. He had seen the future on the precipice and knew very well that this country, which looked prosperous but was actually riddled with holes, did nothing strange.
After finishing the wine and meat,
An Le tidied up and entered the inner room as he began to grind ink and paint.
The painting was not of ink bamboo or galloping horses but of Green Mountain.
He wanted to use ink and brush to draw the Green Mountain and the Future Sword Qi that he visualized with his Primordial Spirit.
Being able to draw that charm and concept on paper in the painting was naturally very helpful for his visualization.
Now, in the Hall Examination, An Le’s greatest hope might be Future Sword
This was the sword qi left behind by the Sacred Teacher, so it was naturally extraordinary. If he could master a bit of the Future Sword Qi, it would definitely increase his strength extremely greatly.
In the next three days, time seemed to have returned to calm.
An Le did not continue to challenge, and his days seemed to be no different from usual.
Body Tempering, Spirit Refinement, reading… He cultivated silently and quietly waited for time to pass.
The stars in the sky changed and circulated.
Light came and went, and darkness rose and fell like a tide.
In the small courtyard, the spring breeze was gentle. The leaves of the old locust tree trembled, and the sword inserted into it trembled slightly.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
An Le sat in the courtyard with the bamboo sword Green Mountain on his lap.
His Primordial Spirit entered the sword and visualized and comprehended Green Mountain and Future Sword Qi.
When the first ray of sunlight shone from the end of the horizon, it was as if clear qi covered the entire human world.
“Clang
The entire Lin’an Prefecture was filled with ancient and distant bells.
On Jing Street, luxurious carriages began to drive one after another, crushing the dust. The people on List A and List B were all heading towards the Imperial City.
Even though they did not have the qualifications to participate in the Hall Examination, as scholars who entered List A and B, they were qualified to enter the Imperial City to take a look.
This was the grandest Hall Examination of the Spring Quarter Examination Imperial Examination.
Qingbo Street, in front of Imperial Ancestral Temple Alley.
The leaves of the old locust tree in the courtyard were stained with pearl-like morning dew.
Accompanied by the ancient bell that resounded in Lin’an, the morning dew shattered and dripped.
An Le changed into a clean white robe and wore the Ink Pool Sword, Green Mountain, at his waist as he closed the courtyard door.
Under the Emperor’s watch, the Hall Examination began.
The invincible aura of the white python surrounded his body.
Facing the rising sun and bathing in the cool spring breeze, calmly, he headed towards the palace..
