I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them? - Chapter 548

Chapter 548: Chapter 298: Setting up the Arena in Front of Thousand Martial Hall
 

At the gates of Thousand Martial Hall, a fierce battle was underway, and news of it spread in an instant, drawing more and more Martial Artists to the scene.

Everyone was utterly shocked.

Who gave him the courage to challenge right at the gates of Thousand Martial Hall?

“Sword God Xu Yan? Is it the one from Luo State who slew Yu Changfeng?”

“Not just Yu Changfeng, the leader of the Sword Sect was killed too.”

“Are today’s Loose Cultivators this bold, directly challenging the gates of Thousand Martial Hall? Where is the dignity of the Transcendent Spirit Sect?”

“Sss! Xu Yan is mighty strong, and have you noticed? His Sword Dao seems quite unusual.”

“Yes, I feel it might even be stronger than that of Thousand Martial Hall.”

The watching Martial Artists were all buzzing with discussion.

Atop the peaks of Thousand Martial Hall, Thousand Martial Lord and a group of Elders were all grim-faced, watching the situation unfold below.

According to the plan, the prodigies of Transcendent Spirit Sect were supposed to come down later, sweep through all their rivals, and demonstrate the might of Transcendent Spirit Sect before overwhelmingly suppressing the prodigies of Wanshi Alliance.

They had the confidence and conviction to do so.

Even knowing that Wanshi Alliance had Wu Tianan backing them, and that his power was terrifying, how could the foundation of Transcendent Spirit Sect be ordinary?

They had already begun investing more resources to train their fighting prodigies, determined to claim ultimate victory in the prodigy showdown!

Quintessentially, they were challenged directly at their doorstep.

This was something they never anticipated.

“What Sword Dao is this?”

One of the Elders asked gravely.

He practiced the swordsmanship of Thousand Martial Hall, but upon seeing Xu Yan’s Sword Dao, he felt incapable of making a move!

“You can’t see through it either?”

Thousand Martial Lord asked earnestly.

“I feel ashamed to strike a sword against him, as if the swordsmanship I’ve diligently practiced were but a child’s play!”

The Elder said profoundly.

“How can that be!”

The other Elders were thoroughly shocked.

To hear such words from a man who was the leading figure in the Sword Dao of Thousand Martial Hall, the current Sword-holding Elder!

“I feel the same way!”

Another Elder who practiced the swordsmanship added solemnly.

“This youth’s Sword Dao must have been stolen from our Thousand Martial Hall!”

An Elder said sharply, with a glint in his eyes.

“Huang Liang went to Yuzhou because of this matter, and ended up dead!”

Someone reminded.

“Heh, he’s already at our gate, what is there to fear?”

“But, the rules of the prodigy showdown…”

“Is he a prodigy from the Wanshi Alliance? Since he isn’t, why bother with it too much, does Mr. Wu really have to stand up for this Loose Cultivator?”

“Lord, what do you think?”

The disputing group turned to ask the Thousand Martial Lord.

Thousand Martial Lord pondered for a moment before speaking heavily, “The time is not yet ripe, and Xu Yan probably has ties with that fellow Wu Tianan. Otherwise, whence came such extraordinary Sword Dao?

“Know that if Wu Tianan, that fellow, loses his weak points and goes mad, you and I might not withstand him.

“When the Divine Bridge is about to descend, then it is not too late to act; then we shall see what Wu Tianan can do!”

The Sword-holding Elder agreed, “The Lord is right, the time has not yet come!”

“What should we do about Xu Yan then?”

An Elder asked, frowning.

“The three states, seven sects, and eight noble families, surely there is a prodigy who can take on Xu Yan? Let them act.”

Thousand Martial Lord declared coldly.

The other Elders nodded.

If the prodigies of Thousand Martial Hall were to face him directly, wouldn’t that demean their value?

Set a threshold, after Xu Yan defeats all the prodigies from the three states, seven sects, and eight noble families, then he can talk about challenging the prodigies of Thousand Martial Hall!

At the gates of Thousand Martial Hall, the battle was nearing its end. With one sweep of his sword, Xu Yan’s Sword Intent transformed into numerous sword shapes, engulfing a Martial Artist of Thousand Martial Hall within.

The Cycle of Life and Death Sword swiftly emerged, life and death transpiring in alternation, and with one sweep around the Martial Artist’s neck, the head fell.

The Sudden Wind Sword Intent swept like a storm, the Divine Soul dissipated, and the body turned to flying ash.

Having slain another Martial Artist of Thousand Martial Hall, Xu Yan, sword in hand, looked arrogantly at the gates of Thousand Martial Hall and said coldly, “Are all the prodigies of Thousand Martial Hall nothing but cowards?”

The watching Martial Artists were extremely shocked. Thousand Martial Hall was being figuratively slapped in the face, yet there was no thunderous action to suppress the challenger?

Could there be some secret behind this prodigy showdown that even the lofty Thousand Martial Hall of Transcendent Spirit Sect dared not defy?

“Xu Yan!”

An Elder of Thousand Martial Hall approached with powerful momentum, as if the Great Power of Domain was already gathered within him, a Supreme Expert!

Xu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, prepared to flee at any moment. This Elder’s power was even stronger than Huang Liang’s; he was certainly no match.

“What’s this, Thousand Martial Hall has no more prodigies, only these old folks left?”

Xu Yan looked directly at him and said disdainfully.

“How arrogant!”

“Rumors say Xu Yan is arrogant. Seeing him today, it is indeed so!”

The crowd of watching Martial Artists all inhaled sharply.

Here was a Supreme Expert, and yet Xu Yan was treating him with such disdain.

Song Zeng’s anger surged, but he suppressed it, saying coldly, “Our Thousand Martial Hall, the exalted status of Transcendent Spirit Sect, our sect’s prodigies are not something a mere Loose Cultivator like you can challenge whenever you wish.

“You defeat all the prodigies of Qianwu State first, then come challenge our sect’s prodigies, or you are not qualified!”

Even though people had come hitting their doors and even killed two Martial Artists, it was somewhat unrelated to one’s face, but letting prodigies fight him would appear as though the prodigies of Thousand Martial Hall were somewhat devalued.

If not for being bound by the prodigy showdown rules, would they allow Xu Yan to rant before their gates, would have slapped him dead long ago.
