Chapter 2251 - 2254: Outer Disciple, No One Dares to Challenge Anymore

Around the Martial Arts Arena, it finally quieted down!

After seeing Gao Shuang's miserable state, finally no one dared to speak.

Qin Tian glanced at everyone and said, "Whoever wants to challenge me can make a reservation now. In a month, we will duel directly!"

Reservation?

The outer disciples who were initially confident of defeating Qin Tian now looked at each other in disbelief upon hearing Qin Tian's words.

Damn, Gao Shuang, ranked fifth among the outer disciples, was brutalized by you like this, who would dare to fight you now?

This isn't a duel; it's abuse!

Suddenly, Qin Tian's ruthless methods cast a shadow among the outer disciples.

A group of outer disciples slowly lowered their heads and turned to leave.

No one shouted anymore about wanting to challenge Qin Tian.

Many inner sect disciples present also began to see Qin Tian with new eyes.

"This Qin Tian is not weak."

"Yeah, his cultivation isn't higher than mine, but his true combat strength is hard to say."

"Haha, the Spring Martial Arts Competition will start in less than half a year, he might make a mark there."

"You say he's strong, but for the Spring Martial Arts Competition... that's beyond his capacity to perform. Qin Tian just defeated two outer disciples; he's not worth such bragging. Who among the inner sect disciples fears him?"

Some were full of admiration for Qin Tian, while others showed disdain.

Of course, those who expressed disdain were all the high-ranking inner sect disciples.

They were recruited into Xuanyuan Immortal Sect along with Qin Tian this year, and inside they didn't fear Qin Tian.

Meanwhile, the inner sect disciples already in Xuanyuan Immortal Sect treated this duel like a show.

"Pecking order among weaklings, haha…"

A few first-year inner sect disciples laughed as they left.

Qin Tian ignored them and walked out of the arena, together with Xu San, preparing to head down the mountain for a good meal.

The two hadn't seen each other for more than a month, Xu San looked unchanged, but Qin Tian had changed a lot. In Xu San's eyes, Qin Tian's aura seemed to have transformed.

…

Qin Tian learned a lot about the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect from Xu San.

The Xuanyuan Immortal Sect finds itself in an awkward position among the Seven Great Immortal Sects, once glorious and then quickly declined.

"It's said the decline of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect began with internal strife."

Xu San's words directly hooked Qin Tian's nerves.

He had long seen that the upper echelons of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect seemed unharmonious.

Having entered Xuanyuan Immortal Sect for several months now, he hadn't seen the Sect Leader show up.

This was a strange affair.

Moreover, Qin Tian was curious lately, since Shenyue's full name is "Xuanyuan Shenyue", he can't be an ordinary disciple of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, yet his cultivation doesn't seem like he's a top figure.

Not being a top figure of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, how does he possess a Silver Token?

What exactly is his status within Xuanyuan Immortal Sect?

Since last seeing Shenyue, Qin Tian hadn't seen him again; he was somewhat mysterious, seemingly not willing to share many things with Qin Tian for now.

Xu San didn't know much either, and on the way back, Qin Tian thought carefully but couldn't see through it, so he decided to let it go.

Right now, he had no mind to deal with these upper-level conflicts, and his strength and cultivation weren't qualified enough.

So, it's better to focus on cultivation.

Last time cultivating the Storm Technique, under Wang Tianqing's guidance, he secluded himself for a month and directly refined it to Great Success.

He went to Wang Tianqing's Blessed Land to report his out-of-seclusion status.

Wang Tianqing smiled and said, "I saw it, haha, watched your duel with the outer disciples, Storm Technique has reached Great Success..."

Wang Tianqing stared at Qin Tian and said, "Looks like you've really drawn hostility, so many outer disciples want to challenge you..."

Qin Tian laughed, directly looking at Wang Tianqing, "This is just once. I estimate that in the future, there won't be so many outer disciples wanting to try their hand against me."

This time, a direct hard strike left Gao Shuang bedridden for at least half a year, serving as a warning. Among the outer disciples, who would dare act beyond their strength?

"Master, I picked 'Sword Drawing Technique' from the Book Pavilion for cultivation. I heard it's a swordsmanship that's difficult to achieve even small success in."

Qin Tian changed the topic.

He believed Wang Tianqing would provide some cultivation assistance.

Indeed, hearing Qin Tian's choice, Wang Tianqing's eyes lit up, "Sword Drawing Technique, at your current level of cultivation, is definitely considered a top-tier cultivation technique."

"However, talking about how difficult it is to cultivate still depends on the tips. What's your main True Qi attribute?"

Wang Tianqing asked.

Qin Tian hesitated for a moment and said, "Water Attribute."

Wang Tianqing's eyes lit up again, "Haha, then it's perfect, Water Attribute True Qi is just right. You consolidate Cold Ice True Qi using Water Attribute True Qi, and when drawing your sword, coordinate the mnemonic with the True Qi operation, then draw the sword at ultimate speed, practicing countless times, until the spell completely integrates into your mind, so that the release and mnemonic become seamless—this is the correct cultivation method."

"Of course, I can't say for sure to what extent you can cultivate eventually, it depends on your talent. If you cultivate Sword Drawing Technique well, you should do me proud at the Spring Martial Arts Competition. Cultivate well."

Qin Tian said, "Master, should I cultivate in your Blessed Land for faster speed?"

Wang Tianqing shook his head, "This sword technique is best cultivated in real scenarios because when you fight others, it's all in a real environment. Only when your Cold Ice True Qi adapts to the surrounding real environment, can the power of Sword Drawing Technique truly be exerted."

Qin Tian walked out from the Blessed Land, full of confidence.

Clearly, no matter what purpose Wang Tianqing accepted Qin Tian as a disciple, at least he's genuinely putting effort into helping him cultivate.

This master was the true significant mentor in his cultivation, helping him the most.

The Xuanyuan Mountain Range is a giant Immortal Mountain, tens of thousands of meters high, stretching horizontally and spiritually abundant.

Besides the main peak, which serves as the residence for outer, inner disciples, and elders, there are more than a dozen sub-peaks.

Within these peaks, there are numerous outer and inner disciples cultivating.

Because the sub-peaks are spiritually rich and peaceful, many masters, apart from cultivating in small Blessed Lands, also enjoy honing themselves in real environments.

Since Wang Tianqing mentioned cultivation of Sword Drawing Technique is best in real environments, Qin Tian flew from the main peak to sub-peaks, seeking the most suitable place.

"That place looks good."

Qin Tian flew towards a sub-peak on the far right enveloped in mist.

But right then, Jiang Feng and two other inner sect disciples, also flying in the sky not far away, saw Qin Tian flying over, with glee surfacing on their faces.
