Chapter 370: The Grand Swordsmanship Competition!
Being a direct disciple carries immense weight, signifying absolute strength, which made Xu Jiahui uneasy.
“Well, that Huo Dongqiu…”
Listening to Xu Jiahui and noticing the worry on her face, Zhang Qing could no longer hold back.
“Zhang Qing, what’s the matter?” Xu Jiahui asked.
“Senior Brother Huo Dongqiu was also defeated by Brother Su Yi…”
Zhang Qing hesitated but recounted the events at the Sword Hall.
Huo Dongqiu and all the inner disciples from the Fifteenth Sword Peak were defeated. The Court of Justice was disregarded, and Su Yi took all their space bags and swords…
Hearing Zhang Qing’s words, Xu Jiahui and the others were left speechless, their jaws dropping in shock.
“Su Yi, is this true?”
Xu Jiahui’s eyes were filled with disbelief as she turned to Su Yi for confirmation.
“They started it. I just gave them a lesson.” Su Yi shrugged, admitting it without hesitation.
“Oh no, this is bad!”
Upon Su Yi’s confirmation, Xu Jiahui instinctively stepped back in alarm.
“Whoa…”
All the outer disciples on the spot sucked in a breath of cold air, as if they had seen a ghost while facing Su Yi.
Others may not understand, but they knew best—this was just a young boy who was rescued by Elder Su and was an outsider.
Huo Dongqiu is a direct disciple of the Divine Sword School and has reached an amazing level of cultivation at the Second Grade of the Yuan Spirit Realm. He has exceptional talent and is highly renowned among his peers at the Divine Sword School.
And it was such a foreign boy that finally defeated Huo Dongqiu with just one move. What kind of background does he have?
This made Xu Jiahui and other outer disciples at this moment feel startled!
“We must come up with a solution, otherwise there will be big trouble. At least we have to wait until Elder Su comes back.”
Xu Jiahui was anxious. She didn’t want Su Yi to get into trouble.
Moreover, Elder Su had entrusted Su Yi to her before leaving, and if anything happened, she wouldn’t be able to explain it to Elder Su.
“It’s okay, they can’t bully me.”
Su Yi smiled faintly, looking at Xu Jiahui and the other outer disciples. It was clear to him that everyone’s concern was not fake, and they were genuinely worried for him.
“Don’t just talk about the Fifteenth Sword Peak. Even the Court of Justice will definitely not stop now. They will definitely send stronger disciples of the Court of Justice.”
Xu Jiahui glanced at Su Yi and thought, ‘He dares to ignore even the disciples of the Court of Justice. This guy has too much courage.’
Throughout the Divine Sword School, she had never heard of anyone daring to ignore the Court of Justice, let alone anyone who could escape their pursuit.
“The disciples of the Court of Justice… well, they are just so-so…”
Su Yi raised an eyebrow.
Of course, Su Yi knew very well that the few disciples he had seen were all young in age but had already stepped into the Yuan Spirit Realm, which represented their exceptional innate abilities. If they were placed outside, each and every one of them would be considered extraordinary.
Su Yi didn’t underestimate the Court of Justice. He knew there must be more powerful disciples in the Court of Justice besides the ones he had encountered.
On the contrary, Su Yi was even somewhat looking forward to it. If he could fight against the strongest of his peers at the Divine Sword School, it would also be a kind of validation for himself.
As for causing such big trouble, the situation had already come to this point, and Su Yi had long stopped thinking about it.
Su Yi only hoped that what the mysterious beautiful woman said would be useful and that he could use it as a corresponding strategy. As for what Elder Su would do to him in the end, it was unknown.
“Don’t underestimate the Court of Justice, and the Court of Justice will never give up!”
Xu Jiahui gave Su Yi another white look, frowned, and kept muttering, “Perhaps the people from the Court of Justice have already come. We need to immediately send you to a safe place, at least until Elder Su comes back, but we don’t know when Elder Su will come back…”
“No problem.”
Su Yi bitterly smiled. Xu Jiahui, this girl, indeed bore some resemblance to Wan’er.
Thinking of Wan’er, a glimmer of light flashed in Su Yi’s eyes, but it was fleeting. He didn’t know how that girl was doing in the Su family now.
“I’ve got it! I have a solution!”
Suddenly, Xu Jiahui’s eyes sparkled with brilliance, her gaze brightened, and she smiled at Su Yi.
“What can we do?” Zhang Qing asked curiously.
“There are only five days left until the Grand Swordsmanship Competition!”
Xu Jiahui’s eyes lit up as she said to everyone, “Before Elder Su left, he asked me to represent the Thirty-Sixth Peak in the Grand Swordsmanship Competition. But now, I’m seriously injured, and there’s no way I can recover in a few days. Even if I did recover, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to play any role in the competition. I wouldn’t be able to pass the first stage!”
There was a slight pause in the conversation, and a hint of disappointment flashed across Xu Jiahui’s delicate face. Her lips were tightly pursed as she looked downcast and melancholic.
Upon hearing “the Grand Swordsmanship Competition,” Zhang Qing and the others’ expressions also subtly changed, feeling dejected within themselves.
“What is the Grand Swordsmanship Competition?”
Observing everyone’s expressions, Su Yi asked curiously.
Soon, from the mouths of Xu Jiahui, Zhang Qing, and others, Su Yi learned that in five days, Divine Sword School would host a grand event that only occurs once every five years—the Grand Swordsmanship Competition.
Divine Sword School has seventy-two sword peaks, among which thirty-six peaks have outer disciples, inner disciples, and direct disciples.
Every Grand Swordsmanship Competition is aimed at the younger disciples, and all young peers from the thirty-six Sword Peaks can participate.
On the thirty-six sword peaks, all disciples together surpass tens of thousands of people.
You should know that apart from the special circumstances on the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, the number of inner disciples and outer disciples on each sword peak, when added together, ranges from thousands to several hundred.
As for the direct disciples on each Sword Peak, the number of them is not too many.
What’s more, not only the disciples from the thirty-six sword peaks but also the miscellaneous disciples and named disciples were able to participate in the Grand Swordsmanship Competition.
It can be said that the Grand Swordsmanship Competition has a huge number of participants, surpassing tens of thousands.
All disciples will take part in this big competition, which is the liveliest event of the entire Divine Sword School and also a test for all the young disciples.
In the Grand Swordsmanship Competition, those who achieve the highest rankings are said to receive significant benefits and abundant rewards from the Divine Sword School.
