"Ah, it must be delusional. Someone from Eastern Academy of green shirts actually won the competition? And their total score is ranked second? Well, it must be luck. Next time, you bunch of rats wouldn't be so lucky?"
The cynical man sneered and said.
That guy really knew how to annoy people. Thus, at that moment, including Ding Hao, nearly all Eastern Academy of green shirts disciples wanted to tear him into pieces.
According to tradition, there would have been a celebration party. However, since Ding Hao had badly injured himself in the game. Thus, that night, the Eastern Academy of green shirts canceled the party. Instead, Ding Hao was escorted back to the No.8 Courtyard by Wang Xiaoqi and Zhang Fan.
On their way, Ding Hao ran into many people, who had warmly congratulated him.
Among them, there were Xiao Chengxuan, Li Canyang, and other "old friends" who he had met for once at the Sword-cleansing Pond.
The revealed blade body reflected the bright moonshine like a mirror, leaving the entire stone-made entrance hall in a watery glow. The moonlights flickered everywhere in the room. The rusted sword changed! Suddenly, the things that the strange man in black had said crossed Ding Hao's mind. He seemed to realize something at that moment. He grabbed the sword and scrutinized at the revealed shining sword body. The body was smooth, he could see no trace of time at all. As if it had just been forged, the bright sword body reflected Ding Hao's face. Could the sword bear some kind of secret? The sword was actually a real treasure? Ding Hao felt surprised in a good way. The only thing was that the rust did not peel off completely. About two-thirds of the rust was still on the sword body. Although Ding Hao tried to get rid of them, he failed after some attempts. "Well, Little Chap Ding, give up. You can't re
However, everyone in Swordsmanship-seeking Sect knew that in every library, there was at least one inner elder guard whose strength had reached the level of the primordial great grandmaster. Moreover, with the mysterious inscription formation laid out by the high-level Inscriptionists, the guarding here were really solid. Taking the bluestone steps to the pagoda library, Ding Hao arrived at the entrance. He saw a gray-haired old man sitting quietly on a bamboo recliner under the shade of a tree at the gate of the ancient pagoda, absorbed in an unknown ancient blue thread-bound book in his hand. The sunshine scattered down along the leaves of the tree, and the gold recliner creaked while it swayed. This was a beautiful scene full of vicissitudes of life. "Hmm? A nominal disciple? Wants to enter the library?" Sensing someone coming, the white-haired old man asked softly. He did not look up, but still read quietly.
"'Rainbow Chases Sun Body Method', auxiliary body method magic skill. Upper Grade of Middle Level Human Realm. Suitable for disciples in Martial Disciple, Martial Soldier Realm. No requirement on Qi property. In the finest stage, one can fly over 30 meters in the air at a speed of 40 meters per second, like a rainbow in the sky." Ding Hao considered for a while and put it back. Although the power of this skill was not too bad, it seemed that it was still a little short of his requirements. He then took out another book. "'First Obscure Dust Body Method', auxiliary body method magic skill. Lower Grade of Upper Level Human Realm. Suitable for disciples in two-apertured Martial Disciple Realm and above. Matches wind Qi property cultivation perfectly. Goes well with gold, wood, and earth property Qi. Does not agree with fire and water property Qi cultivation. In the finest state, one can fly over and 40 meters at a speed of 40 mete
These were the three secrets that Ding Hao finally chose. Basically, they were the highest-ranked skill books stored on the third floor of the "Swordsmanship Hall Library". The two old monsters, Saber Master and Sword Master, were both quite satisfied with Ding Hao's choice. Now, Ding Hao had used up his time he could spend in the library. He carefully held the three wood boxes and found his way back. When he finally came to the entrance the "pagoda library", he once again met the white-haired old man, who was still lying on a bamboo recliner absorbed in some popular novel. "You've finally chose some? Let me see." The white-haired old man took the three wooden boxes from Ding Hao's hand. "Well, my little fellow, you have a keen eye and a lot of ambition. You have chosen the three skills that are the most powerful and at the same time the most difficult to practice on the third floor of the pagoda library. You've d
"Pleated fine steel long sword, only for 100 gold. It cuts iron like mud is, an absolute great self-defense weapon!" "Hey, everyone, take a look. The light body armor made by the masters from Hammering House. It is engraved with Primary Rank inscription, thus impervious to blades and spears. And you can also move freely while wearing it..." "'Qi-Drawing Pill' is on sale. Even if ordinary people eat one, they may feel a sense of Qi. It's crunchy and delicious. Come and get it!" Roadside vendors were shouting loudly to attract customers. Wang Xiaoqi had obviously been here many times and was familiar with it. He smiled and said, "Today is the gathering day in this market, so there'll be many more people than usual. However, you can't always buy quality goods from these vendors, since you're likely to get counterfeits. Only those old shops can guarantee absolutely genuine goods!" Ding Hao nodded. Compar
Of course, good things were not cheap either. The light protective clothing Ding Hao had selected had a total value of about 400kg gold, which was an incredible treasure for ordinary people. A martial artist was indeed an extremely costly career. "Master, would you like to buy some spare swords?" Linghu Yingying suggested with a smile. “As far as I know, every time when the disciples of your sect go out for training, they will encounter some troubles. The demon's claws can tear apart long swords and steel knives, so you'd better buy some spare weapons for emergencies." Ding Hao shook his head. The change of his rusted sword showed that its quality was extraordinary. Besides, the dragon-shaped blood knife presented by Martial Uncle Cheng Fei after he had won the game was also a tough and extremely sharp weapon. These two were enough. There was no need to waste money on other weapons. "You seem to know
Ding Hao and his men were low-status disciples in Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Naturally, they could not get precious Dark Stones. While they were talking, the shopkeeper came near and smiled. "I've promised brother Ding that all the goods are 30% discount off, which is a total of 1,225 kg gold. Ignore the 25 kg gold, how about 1,200 kg gold?" "Whoa! Senior brother Ding, that's amazing! I've been here several times and have never enjoyed any discount." Wang Xiaoqi was very surprised. Zhang Fan's idolatry for Ding Hao had gone deep into the bone, and he did not feel that was strange. Ding Hao paid the golden tickets for his two roommates. After all, when his two roommates were betting, he did not do anything, but he earned the most. At this time, he should pay for them. He mainly wanted to help Zhang Fan, the son of a hunter. Zhang Fan's talent was not good. It was destined that his path of cultivation would be extr
Fire-fire Qi continuously refined "Tanzhong", softening and fusing the huge blockage bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, one than one hour had passed. "Time to end the cultivation!" Ding Hao slightly pranayama. He made the Qi circle in "Zhongji", and then stood up from the futon. The benefit of cultivating Qi was astonishing. It was only an hour before Ding Hao's exhaustion was swept away and he felt refreshed and energetic. There were sounds of melodious birds outside. It was another day. There were four hours before the inscription course started this morning. According to the habit formed in the past few days, Ding Hao came to the courtyard and began to exercise. "The sunrise every day is the transition between Yin and Yang. Yin is accumulated in the Yang, and Yin and Yang are reconciled. At this time, it has the power of pure elements of the sun's true force and pure elements of the
