Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Reunion with Lin Ruoxi
Chu Linfeng digested the information brought to him by Sword Spirit Yue’er, and suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders had beco heavier.
After absorbing Star Power for an entire night, Chu Linfeng felt that the Star Power within him had recovered about sixty to seventy percent, enough to perform Shift Form and Shadow and Wind-Rolling Clouds once each.
In the afternoon, Chu Yuanba ca to find Chu Linfeng, very pleased with today’s performance. He originally had many questions in his heart, but Chu Linfeng dismissed him with the excuse that he would naturally let him know in due ti.
Before dawn, Chu Linfeng left the Chu Mansion; he didn’t want to encounter those sycophants at the residence. Now that he was a prominent figure in Liuyun City, it was better to be low-key.
It was still early, and he ca alone to the top of the mountain behind the mansion, quietly absorbing the fresh air of the mountain top in the morning, feeling completely refreshed.
Chu Linfeng sat on the ground and slowly closed his eyes, recalling the Heart thod Mantra of the Wind Chasing Sword Technique in his mind.
From the Seventh Form onward, the last three moves had no mantra, only the nas of the Sword Techniques, learning them could only depend on one’s comprehension.
He had already mastered Wind-Rolling Clouds for so ti, and the next move to learn was the Eighth Form.
The na of the Eighth Form’s Sword Technique was Wind Over the World. Chu Linfeng rembered that he unintentionally comprehended the Seventh Form, Wind-Rolling Clouds, when his realm just happened to break through to the Fifth Level of Black Tortoise Realm.
"Could it be that this move requires
to break through to the Sixth Layer before it can be practiced?" he speculated silently in his heart.
"Indeed! This young man is teachable! Without sufficiently powerful Star Power, this Martial Skill cannot be practiced. Think about how the Seventh Form is executed,
just one move can consu half of your Star Power, and what about this Eighth Form? Wouldn’t it consu all of it?" Sword Spirit Yue’er said in Chu Linfeng’s mind at this ti.
One had to say that this Sword Spirit was Chu Linfeng’s good teacher and friend; many tis, she could save Chu Linfeng a lot of ti, preventing him from taking unnecessary detours.
Opening his eyes, he realized that it was already mid-morning, and ti passed unexpectedly while thinking with his eyes closed. Chu Linfeng hurriedly stood up and quickly ran towards the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Today was the last day of the family martial arts competition, and he secretly slipped away yesterday. With Sima Jingyi around, others naturally wouldn’t say anything.
Today was different. No matter how talented he was, without passing the competition, no one would recognize him as the first place, not even Sima Jingyi exempt from this.
At this ti, the competition venue was already packed with people. No one wanted to miss today’s most exciting competition; it could be said that the competition stage was surrounded by people tightly packed.
On the stage, all the top candidates from the nine groups had arrived. One person even wore a purple veil, giving a mysterious impression.
Sima Jingyi was also on the stage at this ti, holding several good cards in her hand, yet her eyes wandered as she muttered to herself, "Why hasn’t that guy co yet? Did I hit him too hard yesterday, causing him to be unable to co?"
The crowd below was also discussing it, with soone complaining, "Chu Linfeng has such a big attitude, we’ve been waiting for him for half a day, he should be disqualified from the competition."
One person’s words were supported by many, and quite a few voices echoed imdiately, "Disqualify Chu Linfeng! Disqualify Chu Linfeng..."
Upon hearing this, the veiled girl on the stage shuddered, her eyes like electricity as she looked at those echoing the demand, thinking, "If Linfeng is disqualified because of you, I will definitely make you pay the price!"
Another girl was also anxious in her heart, "Chu Linfeng, where the hell are you? Why aren’t you here yet? Could sothing have happened to you?!"
Sima Jingyi slightly furrowed her brows, "Everyone be quiet! Give him one stick of incense’s ti, maybe he was delayed by sothing. If he still hasn’t arrived after this incense stick’s ti, then disqualify him."
Sima Jingyi’s words had an imdiate effect; the discussions in the crowd noticeably decreased, and everyone was waiting for this half incense stick’s ti to pass.
So hoped Chu Linfeng could co quickly within this half incense stick’s ti. Others hoped he would never appear here.
At this mont, Chu Yuanba in the stands had a face full of anxiety. He knew Chu Linfeng was not a child without a sense of asure, but now that he hadn’t arrived, sothing must have occurred.
Surely soone saw his talent and harbored jealousy and malicious intent, or perhaps he really didn’t want to participate in the competition, feeling no one was his match.
Chu Yuanba could not accept any of these outcos; this was the family’s honor, and the ti of half an incense stick wasn’t long. If Chu Linfeng really didn’t co, he would severely punish him upon returning ho.
Just as Chu Yuanba was feeling anxious and restless, a figure quickly ran towards the direction of the competition stage. Seeing that figure, he laughed, "You brat, always making a fuss. The many years of sha of the Chu Family depends on you to wash away today."
Seeing Chu Linfeng’s arrival, the crowd watching all consciously made way for him; not everyone could afford to provoke soone capable of killing soone at the Ninth Layer of Black Tortoise Realm.
Chu Linfeng, panting heavily, arrived at the front of the stage. Before he could speak, Sima Jingyi spoke, "Chu Linfeng, you really have quite the attitude, making the entire Liuyun City wait for you. You’re the first to do this."
"Maybe I over-exhausted myself yesterday, and I overslept today. Sorry, sorry for keeping everyone waiting!" Chu Linfeng said with a cheeky grin.
"Get on the stage, everyone is waiting for you to draw a card!" Sima Jingyi’s mood instantly improved upon seeing Chu Linfeng’s arrival.
This ti, however, Chu Linfeng dared not look directly at this girl, deeply rembering Sword Spirit Yue’er’s warning in his mind to stay away from her, to the point where he avoided looking at her face and focused on her body.
Yet his gaze inadvertently fell on Sima Jingyi’s prominent area, the part he had fiercely kneaded before, and Chu Linfeng remained unaware.
Sima Jingyi naturally noticed the purpose of Chu Linfeng’s gaze and thought to herself, "You brat, your thieving heart has really not changed. Just wait until after the competition and see how I deal with you!"
Chu Linfeng walked onto the stage, only to find that nine people were already standing on it. He knew these nine were the first-place winners from each group.
Seven male disciples and two female disciples; these two female disciples were facing away from him, making it hard to see their faces, but being able to stand here, they surely had not weak strength.
"Chu Linfeng, I thought you wouldn’t co!" at this mont, one of the girls turned and walked up to Chu Linfeng and said.
"Chu Linyue?" Chu Linfeng was very surprised, never expecting that Chu Linyue could enter the top ten contenders.
"It’s strange? Can’t this lady enter the top ten? I’ll challenge you later!" Chu Linyue glared at Chu Linfeng and said.
"I look forward to it, but today seems a bit big, huh, huh!" Chu Linfeng said in a voice just loud enough for Chu Linyue to hear.
Just as Chu Linyue was about to lose her temper, the other female disciple turned around, but the other party had a purple veil over her face.
Upon seeing the appearance of the other party, Chu Linfeng suddenly was shocked, almost falling on the stage.
"Ruoxi!" Unable to hold back the excitent in his heart, he shouted out loud.
