Chapter 561: The Body of the Half-Blood!
"This is a Spirit Weapon!"
Liu Ji, Wang Fan, and Qing Chao were astonished. They looked at the sword in disbelief. Not only was it a precious sword, but it was also a sword of the highest level known as a Spirit Weapon.
"Is this from Elder Su?"
Qing Chao was so stunned that he couldn't snap out of it for a while. Was this gift from Elder Su? To have a Spirit Weapon right from the start, it was an extraordinary and impressive gesture.
Zhang Qing was amazed and his eyes filled with envy.
A sword of the highest level, a Spirit Weapon, is something that only a few of the direct disciples of the Divine Sword School would possess.
...
The Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak.
In the room, Su Yi sat cross-legged and practiced the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique. His body was enveloped in a glowing light, and wisps of energy, like red spiritual serpents, continuously coiled around his body. Finally, they surged into his body.
Under this cycle, Su Yi's face slowly regained its rosy color, as if a blush crawled back onto his cheeks.
The Grand Swordsmanship Competition had come to a close, but for the next few days, the entire Divine Sword School remained immersed in various lively and bustling activities.
The Sword Tower stood tall, radiating a brilliant light. It resembled a gigantic sword piercing the vast sky, with a ranking board displayed on top.
At this moment, in the highest and most dazzling position on the leaderboard, the name "Su Yi" sparkled and shimmered, capturing everyone's attention.
Mu Yao, Liu Yunchuan, Yun Lingfeng, and others followed closely behind.
"I never expected that Su Yi would be so incredibly powerful, he's like a monster!"
"Mu Yao is equally strong, she is truly extraordinary."
"I heard that Mu Yao's identity seems to be related to the Demon Clan, as she has a half-demon body!"
"What, a half-human and half-demon being? Isn't this a big taboo?"
"Whisper, Mu Yao is a disciple of a high-ranking elder, and her half-demon body is also related to the Garuda clan."
"..."
Everything about the Grand Swordsmanship Competition became the most popular topic among the disciples of the Divine Sword School, something they would discuss even during their leisure time. The names of Su Yi and Mu Yao echoed throughout the entire Divine Sword School!
Sky Sword Peak.
As the sun rose in the east, the scent of incense filled the air, enveloping the elegant building in wisps of fragrant smoke.
Situ Liuyun stood by the window, wearing a strong and muscular body under a black robe embroidered with golden patterns. His long black hair was neatly tied up in a topknot on his head, as he gazed thoughtfully into the distance.
"Sect leader, have you made a decision yet? Elder Bai and a few others have been wondering about Su Yi's background. They feel that his cultivation methods are unfamiliar, so they have some doubts."
The Right Dharma Protector spoke up. This time, Su Yi won the championship, which should mean he has a chance to obtain a great reward. However, a few elders feel concerned because Su Yi's background is unclear. They believe that the supreme benefit belongs to the Divine Sword School, and there must be no room for any mistakes.
"It's quite a dilemma. Where that boy actually comes from..."
Situ Liuyun's eyes sparkled with a deep light, unintentionally revealing the aura of a natural leader. If Su Yi could truly become a member of the Divine Sword School, there would be no doubt that the school would flourish in due time.
"And what about the things inside the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords? Shouldn't there be a resolution by now? The problem is that Elder Su still hasn't personally acknowledged Su Yi as his disciple..."
The Right Dharma Protector smiled bitterly. The Grand Swordsmanship Competition had already ended, but Su Yi still had unfinished business inside the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords. And now, it was also related to Elder Su. This was a difficult situation to handle.
The most important thing is that even though it was said that Su Yi was Elder Su's disciple, Elder Su had never personally admitted it. If Elder Su were to acknowledge Su Yi as his disciple, it would make things much easier. It would also confirm that Su Yi is a disciple of the Divine Sword School.
"You know Elder Su's temper, not easy to ask."
Situ Liuyun let out a soft sigh, a faint bitter smile appearing on his lips. He sighed lightly and said, "That kid really puts me in a difficult position. Well, let's meet him once more before making a decision."
The Right Dharma Protector also felt helpless, with a faint and sad smile on his face.
Su Yi's performance this time was truly astonishing. However, the origin of such exceptional talent seemed quite mysterious.
"What is happening with the other powers?"
Soon, Situ Liuyun's expression turned slightly serious, and he asked the Right Dharma Protector.
"Not long ago, a message was received. All the major mountain gates are also getting ready and many extremely talented people have emerged, along with many bizarre and extraordinary beings."
The Right Dharma Protector spoke up with a slightly serious expression. According to the information he received, many young talents with extraordinary abilities have emerged in the other mountain gates this time.
"Not surprising," Situ Liuyun remarked softly, "They are all getting ready too."
...
Three days have passed since the Grand Swordsmanship Competition. The final showdown of the competition has rapidly spread in an astonishing manner.
In the room, Su Yi sat cross-legged with a shining aura surrounding him. A majestic and destructive energy filled the air. His pale face had lost all expression and gained a slight rosy hue.
A moment later, Su Yi closed his hand seal, and his aura gradually subsided. The shining light transformed into red spiritual serpents that slithered into his body, mysteriously and enigmatically.
"Phew..."
With a breath of air being exhaled from his mouth, the tightly closed eyes opened, and a fleeting red light flashed, before returning to a deep and resolute state.
Su Yi's eyes flickered slightly as he stood up and leaped off the bed, then he pushed open the door.
"Little Grand Uncle, how are your injuries?"
Outside the door, a young man in a black robe appeared. He was not very old, but there was a certain maturity about him that didn't quite match his age. He had a slender figure, sharp eyebrows, phoenix-like eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips. His clear gaze seemed devoid of any impurities or worldly concerns. He had a delicate and harmless appearance, like a younger brother from the neighborhood. It was Situ Muyang.
"It seems like everything is fine now..."
As Situ Muyang looked at Su Yi with his rosy cheeks, he couldn't help but be amazed. He must have misunderstood something. The guy in front of him didn't seem like someone who had something important going on.
Such severe injuries, yet he has miraculously healed without any hindrance. It's truly extraordinary.
"You came. How did you come?"
Su Yi smiled. Even though he had been focusing on regulating his breathing just now, he was still aware of everything happening around him. He sensed someone approaching, so he stopped regulating his breathing.
Looking at Situ Muyang, Su Yi forced a small bitter smile and rolled his eyes. Then he said to Situ Muyang, "Just call me by my name. It's not like I'm that old for you to address me as 'Little Grand Uncle' like that."
"That won't work. According to our family hierarchy, you are actually my Grand Uncle, so even my dad would call you 'uncle'."
Situ Muyang made a face and said, "Anyway, you can't avoid giving me a gift. You have won the Grand Swordsmanship Competition this time, and you will receive many wonderful rewards."
"I promise to give you the gift. It's not necessary for you to constantly emphasize your seniority and belittle yourself. Why bother?" Su Yi's gaze shifted inwardly as he spoke to Situ Muyang.
"This..."
Situ Muyang's eyes shifted as he felt that what Su Yi said made sense.
"Okay then, from now on, when there's no one around or in front of outsiders, you can just call me by my name. But when there are other people from the Divine Sword School present, you can call me 'Little Grand Uncle'." Su Yi suggested to Situ Muyang.
"Okay, from now on, when there are people from the Divine Sword School around, I will call you Little Grand Uncle. When there are no other people around, I will call you Boss Su Yi, just like Zhang Qing and the others do."
Situ Muyang smiled and said to Su Yi.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Su Yi smiled and the two of them raised their hands and gave each other a friendly pat.
"I almost forgot the important matter! My father asked me to come and find you and go to Sky Sword Peak. It seems like there's something important for you." Situ Muyang said to Su Yi.
"Your dad came to find me..."
Su Yi was lost in thought, wondering if winning the Grand Swordsmanship Competition had anything to do with it. He had heard that there were many rewards and great benefits after winning the championship.
"I will go and inform Elder Su before going," Su Yi nodded, planning to let Elder Su know.
"No need, I just went to see him. He said you can make your own decisions, and he will be in seclusion for a few days," Situ Muyang said. He had already met with Elder Su.
"That's how it is," Su Yi raised an eyebrow slightly.
Situ Muyang came to the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, riding a fearsome creature, while Su Yi accompanied him on the journey towards Sky Sword Peak.
"In no time, we will be headed to the Central Region City to attend the Saint Martial Assembly. I'm really looking forward to it! With your strength, I'm sure you'll amaze many people and dominate those arrogant guys."
Riding on a flying creature, Situ Muyang felt very excited. The thought of the Saint Martial Assembly filled him with a strong desire to battle.
"The Saint Martial Assembly?" Su Yi looked confused.
"Do you not know about the Saint Martial Assembly?"
Situ Muyang looked at Su Yi, who appeared confused. He wondered if Su Yi didn't even know about the Saint Martial Assembly.
Su Yi shook his head, admitting that he had never heard of the Saint Martial Assembly before.
"The Saint Martial Assembly is a grand event for the young generation in the entire central region. Any young person under the age of twenty-five can participate. It is a great opportunity for disciples from various major forces in the central region to showcase their talents. The Saint Martial Assembly is a prestigious event that brings fame and recognition to those who become successful. It is a highlight of the entire central region!"
Situ Muyang informed Su Yi that the Saint Martial Assembly was no ordinary event. It was a grand occasion for the entire central region. The young generation from all around the central region would participate in it. If one could achieve success, their name would be known throughout the entire central region. It would be enough to make them famous and respected.
"In the whole central region, Sacred Mountain is a prominent place. However, beneath Sacred Mountain, there are many top and second-tier forces. Some of these top forces include our Divine Sword School and Tianxuan Sect. When the time comes, the outstanding young generation from our school will participate in the Divine Sword School's Grand Swordsmanship Competition. In reality, this competition is to prepare for their participation in the Saint Martial Assembly," Situ Muyang explained.
Su Yi's eyes lit up as he discovered that the Saint Martial Assembly seemed like a grand and lively event. He couldn't believe that it was actually connected to Sacred Mountain.
"Will Sacred Mountain also send people to participate in the Saint Martial Assembly?" Su Yi asked Situ Muyang.
Situ Muyang nodded and replied to Su Yi, "Of course! The Saint Martial Assembly is led by Sacred Mountain, and both top and second-tier forces in the central region will participate. All the young generation in the entire central region can join, including the young disciples from Sacred Mountain. It is said that those outstanding disciples from other sects will have the opportunity to go to Sacred Mountain for further training. It's a tremendous opportunity!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yi couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart. If Sacred Mountain was participating, would Liu Ruoxi also go...
