Chapter 883 - 100: Elder Wang’s Resentful Lament

Chapter 883: Chapter 100: Elder Wang’s Resentful Lament

The whole place was abuzz, chirping away like a flock of sparrows missing their morning worms, like a gathering of the Brainless and the Unhappy, all at once. Li Xin just smiled and winked at Yun Le, that girl had shouted at him just now, giving him much face.

Meanwhile, Yun Le’s face blushed. Fortunately, the atmosphere was so lively that no one noticed her little change.

"What just happened? That sword..."

"It definitely was a treasure sword! Dammit, Shao Feng lost so unjustly. Who gave it? Damn it, isn’t this just tricking people?"

"I felt the Fire Spirit Power. This bumpkin has no Spiritual Root, so it must have come from that treasure sword!"

Everyone looked at Xiao Yan, after all, anyone who could sit at a table with Liu Zhongyang and Ku Chan, even if unknown, was definitely not an ordinary person. Randomly giving a sword that’s actually a treasure sword, that’s the mark of the prestigious elite family of the Xiao Family from the Cultivation Realm.

Xiao Yan showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"Brother Xiao, is this the Fire Spirit Sword?" Liu Zhongyang asked curiously. Artifact Refining is a major field in Divine Land, entering the Dao through tools, giving weapons spirituality is a hallmark watershed, from then on one can be called a ’master’.

This is a realm sought by many artifact refining cultivators throughout their lives, and having a weapon that matches their Spirit Root is also every cultivator’s dream.

"Seems like it. I have a Fire Spirit Root, so I’ve collected some this and that, didn’t expect it to be quite good." Xiao Yan remarked, he’d been in a bit of a hurry then, he randomly pulled one out from the Sumeru Mustard Seed, most of his swords are alright.

Ku Chan and Liu Zhongyang exchanged glances, Ku Chan clasped his hands together, "Good sword."

Xiao Yan glanced at Ku Chan, "I feel like you’re insulting me."

"I didn’t," Ku Chan smiled slightly.

"Let’s have the three elders comment then." Yun Yu also withdrew her gaze from Li Xin’s immovable stance, too much shock tends to pile up, someone like this can’t be found in Divine Land.

Her emotional management was much better than her sister’s, her expression quickly restored, she smiled faintly, "Which elder would like to start?"

Elder Kui chuckled, "I’ll start by tossing out a brick to attract jade. Shao Feng’s Clear Wind Sword from Ten Thousand Rooster Hall is a Wind Spirit Sword capable of unleashing Shao Feng’s Wind Spirit Root, but the quality of this sword leaves much to be desired, which is key to his defeat. So everyone present should understand, a good weapon can be a lifesaver."

Tang Feng cursed silently, smiling broadly, "Elder Kui spoke well, but it seems like his vision isn’t great. The sword in Ren Yanli’s hand is also ours from Ten Thousand Rooster Hall, though an old item, at least a hundred years old as a fire spirit sword. Good spirit swords, but the wielder is what counts."

In Divine Land, magic artifacts and divine weapons are better the older they are, the forging material and spiritual energy level is different, it’s beyond reversal.

"Oh, you mean Infinite Sword Sect doesn’t compare to a loose cultivator then." Elder Kui stroked his beard with a smile.

"I never said that, victory and defeat are commonplace among soldiers, Jiuxiao Building’s Martial Arts Arena is originally for cultivators of various sects to gain experience and enhance cultivation, talking about victory or defeat now is premature, of course, Ren Yanli’s capability is evident to all." Tang Feng said coolly.

Elder Kui chuckled, the point wasn’t to reason out but to leave an impression on everyone, the goal was achieved.

"Thank you to the two elders for their comments," Yun Yu smiled, not interrupting, the struggle between Ten Thousand Rooster Hall and Gang Refining Hall is not a day or two long, "Elder Wang, what do you think?"

Suddenly, everyone quieted down, looking at Wang Zhigao, though he lost, they already understood Wang Zhigao’s painstaking intentions.

Wang Zhigao pursed his lips, "What do I think, use eyes to look, this waste doesn’t have skill but wants to act, the first two fights were for nothing, this guy fought two matches without batting an eye, yet he’s there testing away, utterly blind, he deserved to lose."

"The sin of arrogance," Tang Feng commented with emotion.

The old problem of Infinite Sword Sect, looking down on everyone.

Wang Zhigao’s gaze settled on Ren Yanli, "Kid, you have some sneaky ability, but don’t get cheerful, these guys are second-rate in Divine Land anyway."

One word made Meng Kuo, Chu Zhan, and others flushed, but there’s no refuting, after all, it’s embarrassing.

Wang Zhigao couldn’t be bothered to say more, his contract ended today, this was the last bout, whatever happens later is none of his business.

"Thanks to the three elders, today’s challenge is over, the next is the best voting segment."

Seeing the light and carefree Ren Yanli on stage, the crowd was rather mad, but helpless, with Divine Land people caring about face, forcing them to choose the loser is not in their nature, reluctantly picking Ren Yanli, this feeling of dissatisfaction without ability to vent is truly stifling.

Li Xin returned to his table, returned the sword to Xiao Yan, "Thanks for the sword, want me to give you the chance to date Bao Yu’Er tonight."

"Pft, I’m not interested in foxes like that," Xiao Yan replied, "The sword is yours."

"No way, this treasure sword looks so precious, taking without merit is unacceptable." Li Xin gestured to refuse.

"Just a sword, I’ve got heaps here, I kept this one because the sheath looks nice. The sword, so-so, if it suits you, keep it, otherwise you’re looking down on me." Xiao Yan rolled his eyes.

Li Xin smiled helplessly, "Alright, alright, I’ll take it, don’t put yourself down."

Immediately, the whole table burst into laughter, as expected, Ren Yanli still became the best of the night, though did not get Bao Yu’Er’s invitation, at least it didn’t make the crowd too uncomfortable, if this bumpkin were to gain both wealth and beauty, it would make young talents of Divine Land puke.

"Brother Ren, did you unsheathe that sword or not? It doesn’t seem like it," Xiao Yan asked curiously.

"Ah, I did." After three matches, Li Xin’s stomach was somewhat hungry, he took the pastries on the table and began eating and drinking ravenously.

"You did?" Xiao Yan sounded puzzled.

"I did, but not fully unsheathed." Liu Zhongyang smiled wryly.

"Very good, very good." Ku Chan echoed.

Xiao Yan was puzzled, unsure of the meaning, but winning was good.

Wang Zhigao glanced distantly over here, mixed expressions, some resentment, sighed lightly and decided to leave.

"Elder Wang, this way please," Yun Yu accompanied, handing the prepared Spirit Stone bag to Wang Zhigao, "Here’s your red packet."

Wang Zhigao touched it, the packet disappeared, "No need to see me off."

"Elder Wang, don’t you consider being our regular guest?" Yun Yu asked, both Elder Tang Feng and Elder Kui are permanent guests, though neither was too willing at the start, Ten Thousand Rooster Hall and Gang Refining Hall’s competition is distinct, a bit of trickery made them agree.

"No need." Wang Zhigao didn’t hesitate, took the items and headed to the balcony, pinched a sword technique with his index and middle finger, and whoosh, he stepped onto the sword and soared.

Watching the crowd below filled with experts, even a loose cultivator with such comprehension and brains, contrasting with the stone lumps of Martial Heart Sect, Wang Zhigao’s mood suddenly became bottled up.

Yun Yu didn’t have solutions either, some tricks she’s brave enough to use against others, but dare not in front of this Ten Thousand Swords Sect elder, this one is ancestor of Taiyin School, midway thought to sign again with him, but Wang Zhigao refused, for figures of this stature unless he has needs, truly hard to handle.

Hopes the impact won’t be too big.

Li Xin and company also returned to the courtyard arranged by Jiuxiao Sect, places bustling aren’t convenient for conversations, they asked Jiuxiao Sect to set a table, so they could drink freely.

Li Xin was now a major contributor to Jiuxiao Building, Yun Yu and Yun Le were willingly serving personally, Xiao Yan though indifferent to Bao Yu’Er, didn’t mind sisters Yun Yu and Yun Le.

"Both of you are disciples of Celestial Destiny Sect, have you seen the State Lord?" Lively with drinks, Li Xin asked curiously.
