Zhu Yi waited for the rest of the fights to finish. This ti, he waited two days. Although there were less fights, there were more even matchups. The longest fight took an hour, which was still considered short considering that they were both Void Traversing realm cultivators.
Round three soon started, and Zhu Yi was the first fight. His opponent walked onto the stage confidently.
At the starting signal, his opponent slashed his sword towards him with flas covering it.
Zhu Yi flipped backwards and unsheathed his sword.
The formless sword.
The first formless sword knocked away the opponent's blade. The Second sent him flying back. The third was t with a lucky resistance. The fourth ended the fight.
Although his opponent was far stronger than his others so far, he was a user of the formless sword technique and had god rank sword talent.
Finding a worthy opponent was extrely challenging.
Zhu Yi watched the rest of the fights as usual. So people won in a single strike, while others fought for a long ti. Zhu Yi had to wait a week for the fights to end. One fight had taken an entire day to finish.
For the rest of the tournant, Zhu Yi would fight the first match.
His next opponent was at the sa level of strength as his last one, and he quickly won.
As Zhu Yi watched this ti, he saw more of the people that had previously only used a single strike to win.
They seed to pose a threat, but Zhu Yi still could not get an accurate grasp.
As the fourth round ca to an end, a week break was called. This was mostly unnecessary since they were cultivators, but the Sword Sect had another purpose for this break.
Over the next week, all of the contestants would be living in the sa building. Since only 64 remained, it was not cramped at all.
The goal was to let those of the Sword Sect get to know each other and scout out future opponents.
Zhu Yi planned to stay in his room that entire ti, but heard that there was supposedly extrely good food being served everyday.
Although he didn't believe it could be that good, Zhu Yi entered the cafeteria to give it a try.
There was no line, and only around 20 people were eating. No matter who it was, every single person was eating as if they had never eaten anything in their life.
Zhu Yi grabbed a tray and found that the al was lobster. He had never been much of an eater, but grabbed a lobster and sat down with it.
As he looked at it, he realized he didn't know how to eat it.
"Whatever." He mumbled as he took a bite out of the back.
The shell was hard, but it did not stop his teeth. He took out a large bite and swallowed.
To put it simply, it was the greatest thing he had ever tasted. Zhu Yi ended up eating it whole, not leaving claws or a shell behind.
He felt so weird stares, but ignored them. After finishing, he began walking back to his room. It was a worthwhile trip.
Just as he was about to leave the cafeteria, he heard a voice behind him.
"Um, sir. That's not how you eat a lobster. I can teach you."
Zhu Yi heard a girl's voice. She sounded shy.
He turned around and was shocked. His mories seed to fly by as he rembered his ti inside of Chen Jie's inheritance.
There was one person in particular that Zhu Yi rembered. The sword princess. He had not even been able to see her as she beat him. Only with instant completion had he survived. Sohow, the girl that spoke to him seed almost identical to the brief glimpse he had caught of the woman after winning the fight.
"Sword Princess?" Zhu Yi asked.
The girl's eyes widened and she hurriedly put a finger over her mouth and moved away. Zhu Yi followed her.
They found themselves in an empty room.
"How do you know the sword princess?" The shy girl asked.
"I saw her fight soone long ago." Zhu Yi said.
"That's my mother. Nobody knows that I'm related to her, and nobody is supposed to find out. Please keep it a secret." She asked.
Zhu Yi nodded. He didn't know the Sword Princess personally either way.
Seeing Zhu Yi agree, the girl sighed in relief. "Did you see a recording of my mother's fight?"
The Sword Princess was probably ancient, so it would be weird if he had seen her personally.
"I did. I only heard her na and saw her fight. Can you tell about her?" Zhu Yi asked.
He was curious. He also wanted to know why this girl had to hide her identity.
"When my mother was younger, she could easily defeat anyone in the sa realm. She was born in the Main Sword Sect, and even there she was unbeatable. At one point, the elders of the Sword Sect even searched for soone who could possibly defeat her on the sa level. However, nobody ever did. This is a commonly known legend. She is now the vice-master of the Sword Sect. However, as her only daughter, I happen to know more. Do you want to hear?" She asked.
Just like Zhu Yi was curious, the girl seed excited to talk about her mother.
Zhu Yi nodded.
"When my mother reached the Space Shattering realm, she t a man that had climbed up from a lower world. He was born from a mortal family, but he alone managed to reach the stars. They were at the sa realm and the sa level. Like my mother always had, she challenged him to a fight. He refused, but my mother was young and immature. Countless victories had grown her arrogance. She did not bow even in front of god realm cultivators. She attacked without another word." After this she paused for a mont.
"My mother did not fully describe the fight to , but she told that this was her first defeat. She told one line. His na was Chen Jie, and he was invincible."
