Mission: Seduce the Master! - Chapter 130

Chapter 130: Exam (Part 4)
It seemed as though Xie Qing was speaking almost in a whisper, but his voice echoed throughout the huge space of the arena and the stands. Every spectator held their breath.

And not in vain.

“Kh-h…”

Those who did not have time to breathe in enough air clutched their throats. They felt all sorts of pressure falling on their frail bodies. Even the protective barrier did not help.

Lian Lin was pleasantly surprised. Xie Qing’s level was not high enough for her to feel the danger, but of course, the girl was able to feel all the changes in his qi and aura.

“Amazing… is this the technique you’ve been working on for so long?” Lian Lin asked admiringly, a faint smile appearing on her face: “A worthy result!”

The young man did not answer – he simply could not. This technique was very difficult to perform, but very powerful.

The Nameless Sword made creaking sounds, and it seemed that it would break at any moment, but surprisingly, the simple-looking sword held up well.

And finally, when Xie Qing could no longer hold back, he clenched his teeth and swung down.

“Slash!”

His voice was neither loud nor quiet, but the audience heard every word. In the end, a powerful pressure fell on the stage, and clouds of dust and dirt rose into the air.

The elders were stunned, feeling the surrounding space begin to shake. They stood in a circle, and then someone among them took out a golden core.

“Pour your qi into the Space Core! Don’t let the Sword Aura cause too much damage!”

“Yes!”

Under the command of the chief elder, the other elders poured their qi into the core with all their might. This turned out to be effective.

Fortunately, with the increase of qi flows into the space ecosystem, the barriers also strengthened, and this helped the spectators come to their senses from suffocation.

They looked at the stage with trepidation. There was still dust and dirt there, which obscured the view.

“What happened there? Is the sect master okay?!”

“Of course she’s okay! She’s a Divine Transformation cultivator!”

“This guy really shocks…”

On this day, they had felt too much “surprise.” It seemed that there would be nothing else in their lives that could knock them off balance.

…And so, while the spectators were discussing something, a wind rose on the stage, which carried away all the dirt and dust. In the end, people were able to see what was happening.

“This…”

“Heavens…”

“What a horror!”

There was not even a name left on the stage, the situation was so bad. Although Lian Lin and Xie Qing were standing, not having received any damage, but…

“The mannequin… cracked!”

“Wh-what…”

A wave of exclamations swept through the stands when this detail was discovered. The mannequin had cracked in the neck area – it extended along the torso.

Moreover, the color had become dark red… which meant one thing.

Instant kill! Merciless kill!

“Th-this…”

“Now I understand why he’s called Destroying Blade…”

“The Immortal Stone cracked from the attack of a Soul Nascent cultivator… ha-ha-ha-ha… ha-ha…”

“Stop hysterically laughing, I’m about to go crazy.”

“Look! Did you see it? Did you see?! This is freaking crazy!”

Various bad words and exclamations made the stands noisy. Many discussed Xie Qing’s technique, some even tried to contact their family to share the new information.

One way or another, everyone remembered one name.

“Sword God Strike…”

It seemed that even after the strike was made, the scene was still filled with that suffocating aura. Moreover, the Sword Aura had deeply penetrated the stones, which in the future would be a little dangerous.

Xie Qing blinked when he heard the characteristic sound “ding.” He turned his head and looked at the system message.

Ding!

[The user has created their sword technique…]

Ding!

[Sword God Strike] | [Rank: Elite] | [Description: According to legends, there once was a Sword God who with one attack could divide the heavens, destroy hundreds of worlds, and at the same time play cards. His sword was made of simple materials, his technique was unremarkable – an ordinary vertical strike. However, those who underestimated this strike did not survive, nor did they remain in history. Following these legends, you have created a sword technique that delivers a powerful strike. If the Sword Aura gets into the enemy’s body, then it will immediately burst from the inside. The effect of the strike increases with each second of using this skill] | [Original technique]

Ding!

[Achievements are being counted… a category is being created…]

…

…

…

Ding!

[The category “Lord of the Nine Realms and Heavens” has been created. All your original techniques will be placed there].

Ding!

[The appropriate reward is being calculated…]

Ding!

[Received item: Veil of the Heavenly Maiden]

[Veil of the Heavenly Maiden] | [Rank: Elite] | [Description: A beautiful veil made of Silver Star Spider silk. Has special protective properties, can enhance qi absorption, and looks very elegant… heh…]

***

“My head… how noisy!” Xie Qing mentally complained, twisting the corners of his mouth.

There were so many “dings” that he already thought they would not stop. Fortunately, they stopped at the last item.

“A veil…?”

The young man twisted the corners of his mouth. The veil was obviously for women. Why did the system give him such an item?

“Well, it’ll do. I’ll just give it to Master” he thought, rolling his eyes.

While he was thinking, the elders came up and began to help restore the stage. After an hour, the stage was repaired.

Lian Lin did not leave. She decided to see this exam through to the end.

“Xie Qing, you have already proven your qualifications. I don’t think you’ll have to fight with a main courtyard disciple.”

“Eh? Well, alright…”

Xie Qing listlessly nodded, feeling weakness in his legs. This technique had almost deprived him of all his qi. He was saved only by the fact that his cultivation technique and physique helped to quickly restore Qi.

“Fuuuuh!”

The main courtyard disciples, who were on edge because they thought they would have to fight this monster, breathed a sigh of relief. Some even cried tears of joy.

“How good. I already wrote my will.”

“Right. I’m afraid we wouldn’t have survived even under his one simple attack… sigh!”

“The newcomers this year are somehow not normal…”

Then, Xie Qing left the stage and approached Elder Lian, who was waiting for him.

“Congratulations. You showed excellent mastery. I admire your skills!” Lian Xin said with a kind smile.

“And I admire your beauty. I wonder if the elder would be so kind as to accompany me to the restaurant this evening?” Xie Qing said with a coquettish smile, gradually returning to his usual self: “Of course, I’ll treat.”

“It will be an honor for me.”

“Heh.”

Lian Xin and Xie Qing continued their conversation, while some elders could not help but cast envious glances – this applied to both men and women.

“This guy… lucky bastard!”

“This woman… lucky!”

It seemed like two different thoughts, but so similar.

Fortunately for the main courtyard disciples, the newcomers this year were relatively normal. The only abnormal one was Xie Qing.

Some defeated their opponent – among them was the guy from the Lian family with the long name, and Bai Lan, who did not look particularly happy, even though he had defeated his opponent.

“Hmph!”

Bai Lan snorted and turned his gaze towards Xie Qing, who was discussing something with Lian Xin with joy on his face.

“This Xie Qing… a dangerous figure. I need to warn my father and uncle.”

Bai Lan’s father was a cousin of the head of the Bai family. Therefore, he had a fairly good position in the family.

Because of his status, he knew something about the situation with Bai Bai. Presumably, it was this disciple who became the cause of the death of one of the main talents of the Bai family.

According to the internal investigation, Xie Qing pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger. Thus, he attempted that, unfortunately, ended successfully.

This made the Bai family feel angry, but they were powerless against the Sword Princess and Lian Lin.

“With such a genius as him, you need to be friends. I don’t see any point in becoming his enemy because of the idiot Bai Bai…” thought Bai Lan, turning his gaze away.

Bai Bai was indeed one of the talented members of the Bai family, but he was not worth becoming hostile with the future sect master. Moreover, he was also very talented, most likely, he was the future Sovereign.

“Although I couldn’t achieve impressive results on the exam… I learned some information.”

Bai Lan smiled and left the stage.

***

Xie Qing said goodbye to Lian Xin and went to the Xu Mei Pavilion. Unfortunately, he did not find his Master there. But…

“Yu Yang!”

Seeing the beautiful and sultry maid with a developed body, Xie Qing waved to her and smiled.

“Young master?”

Of course, Yu Yang was pleasantly surprised by his presence and sweetly smiled, putting aside the broom and running to him.

“Wow! Have you lost weight?” Xie Qing was surprised.

He caught Yu Yang spun around, and then looked at her with a smile, his hands groping her waist.

“A little. I’ve been diligently cultivating and broke through to the peak of Core Formation!” Yu Yang happily reported: “N-and because of this, I lost a little weight. I’m slimmer now, right?”

“You were slim before” Xie Qing smiled and squeezed her buttocks.

“Aaah… n-naughty boy.”

They smiled at each other, and then the young man thought for a moment and took out the veil. He handed it to the woman.

“Yu Yang, this is my gift to you.”

“This… a veil?”

Xie Qing nodded. Initially, he wanted to give it to the Master but realized that he paid too little attention to other women. Especially to Yu Yang.
