Great achievent?
After a mont of silence, Shang Yunfang’s expression changed dramatically. He looked at Chen Ku incredulously and asked, "Bladesmanship? Your bone-chopping butcher blade technique has reached great achievent?"
His breathing quickened.
It was just as he had told Ke Yansheng. He wanted to take on an apprentice with even better talent and Root Bone than himself, so that these fine arts could be passed down from generation to generation, each growing stronger than the last. The previous master of Jinshi Academy taking Yang Luochen as his disciple was exactly such a case. His goal was to accept soone with talent and Root Bone comparable to Yang Luochen’s in his youth.
So, when he initially heard from Ke Yansheng that Chen Ku had achieved an entry-level grasp of Bladesmanship in just four or five days, he wasn’t particularly impressed because that was similar to his own experience.
To be honest, Shang Yunfang’s own Root Bone talent wasn’t actually that remarkable. It was rely considered good in Baojiao County; if he were in Qiu Dragon Mansion, it would only be considered above average. Conversely, soone like Yang Luochen, if in Qiu Dragon Mansion, would be considered top-notch. Root Bone was a matter not easily categorized precisely, but the differences between individuals were quite discernible. For instance, it had taken him, Shang Yunfang, a full year and a half to achieve great achievent in the bone-chopping butcher blade technique.
"Yes, it is the bone-chopping butcher blade," Chen Ku affird.
Yang Luochen beca anxious.
This is bad!
He, too, found Chen Ku’s statent incredible. For a person to possess such Divine Power in their Root Bone already indicated exceptionally high Innate potential. For that sa person to also possess such exceptional talent in Martial Arts techniques was truly extraordinary. He imdiately wanted to interject.
"The bone-chopping butcher blade... it’s just Force Transformation Martial Arts, after all..." Yang Luochen said, feigning composure, intending to downplay the matter and brush it aside.
"You keep quiet!!" Shang Yunfang, even more agitated than Yang Luochen and disregarding his own injuries, snapped at him. Then, turning to Chen Ku, he said, "Co, let’s go to the combat showcase area."
After Shang Yunfang finished speaking, Ke Yansheng’s face flushed with excitent, and he looked at Chen Ku with imnse surprise. The bone-chopping butcher blade at Great Achievent Level? In terms of proficiency with this Bladesmanship technique, I myself am only at this level!
After all, for most people, reaching great achievent in a single Martial Art was their limit. As for Perfection, that was only achievable, if at all, after a lifeti of dedicated practice in that specific discipline.
Soon enough, the combat showcase area was filled with many apprentices and workers who had co to watch the spectacle. Among them were Zhang Erniu, Che Ping, Huang Bao, and others who had shared a room with Chen Ku. They watched as Shang Yunfang handed Chen Ku a blade and then gave Ke Yansheng a aningful look, signaling him to test whether Chen Ku’s claim was true.
"Just attack purely with your Bladesmanship. You can also use your brute strength," Ke Yansheng said, gesturing for Chen Ku to unleash his full power. "I’ve reached the Second Realm of the Mystic Barrier Realm, so rest assured, I can handle you. Only by doing so can you fully display your capabilities, and this will also be your chance to stay in the academy."
"Yes, Disciple understands. Master Ke, please forgive my impertinence." Chen Ku then took a standard long blade from the combat showcase area. He advanced, executing the ’Whip Strike Penetrating Deep’ from the bone-chopping butcher blade technique, his blade whipping and swirling like an actual whip.
He had already secretly activated Feng Guangbian. Drawing upon his Great Achievent Level experience with the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Blade, he chose the ’Whip Strike Penetrating Deep’ move. This was because the Force Power, application of strength, and Divine Intent of this strike were almost identical to the ’Dividing Flowers and Brushing Willows’ move from the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Blade.
With this single strike, Force Power surged and Divine Intent manifested. Indeed, it was as if the attack unleashed a cascade of falling petals and flowing water, stirring up nurous fine blade winds in midair that enveloped Ke Yansheng.
"Truly great achievent!" Ke Yansheng exclaid, overjoyed at the sight. His feet shifted in a blur, like a golden carp, his movent technique incredibly fast. He instantly vanished from beneath Chen Ku’s blade wind, simultaneously thrusting his own blade towards Chen Ku’s flank.
The hairs on Chen Ku’s body stood on end.
Such incredible speed! This is Master Ke’s true strength! I had assud my Four Symbols Power could overpower most opponents through sheer force. But now I truly understand that advancing in Martial Arts Cultivation... involves a comprehensive enhancent of the physique. I’ve only increased my Power, but in terms of movent technique and speed, I’m nowhere near a master who wields Inner Qi.
After all, no matter how strong he was, he was still mortal. Even if he wielded a staff weighing tens of thousands of pounds, if he couldn’t hit his target, and his opponent, relying on superior speed and movent technique, could evade his attack and instantly pierce his throat with a sword, his Divine Power would be useless. In that critical mont between life and death, Divine Power would an nothing.
However, facing Ke Yansheng’s attack, Chen Ku could sense that Master Ke was rely sparring to test his techniques. Otherwise, a strike of that caliber would have already landed. Instead, Master Ke was deliberately holding back, waiting for Chen Ku’s counterattack, solely to assess his Bladesmanship.
Since it was rely a test of his Bladesmanship, Chen Ku didn’t hold back. He channeled his Great Achievent Level experience with the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Blade into his execution of the bone-chopping butcher blade technique. He perford several moves, such as ’rcury Pouring Down,’ ’Omnipresent,’ and ’In and Out Without Gap,’ all at a Great Achievent standard.
Finally, he ca to the most crucial secret Combat Skill.
Lion Rolling Ball!
Chen Ku twirled his blade, and his entire body seed to be enveloped by swirling blade winds.
To apprentices and workers like Zhang Erniu, Che Ping, and Huang Bao, who had not yet achieved Force Transformation, their eyes could hardly follow the movents. They could only see the blade in Chen Ku’s hands disappear, as if it had transford into a white, hazy ball rolling around.
