Although Ling Junxuan and his wife were only the masters of Cloudy Dream City, the status of the Ling family in the empire should not be underestimated.
Especially, those who were really powerful and influential all knew that Ling Taixu and Ling Junxuan possessed the purest bloodline of the Ling family. They stayed in Cloudy Dream City because of some special reasons.
But even so, Ling Junxuan's two sons were outstanding geniuses. They still held important positions in the army, considered to be the future "10 Greatest Generals" of the empire, and their future accomplishments were limitless.
Who dared to look down on this couple?
"Haha, it's been hard on you all to have come all this way. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you properly."
Ling Junxuan cupped one hand in the other before his chest with a face full of smiles. Without waiting for anyone to reply, he said, "Master Bai Haiqin has been cultivatin
"Let the banquet begin."Ling Junxuan stood up, looking tall and elegant. He held a cup of wine and said, "Everyone, the sword test is a big event of Baiyun City. Everything in the gathering was arranged by Bai Haiqin. It must have been hard on you all since you've come from far away. I'll drink to you with a small cup of wine as a mere gesture of respect. Before the test starts, I'll toast to you and wish you all a good grade.""Enjoy.""Thank you, Sir Ling.""Haha, enjoy yourselves."Everyone raised their cups.After the drink, Ling Junxuan added, "The following arrangements should take place according to the agreed rules. Our Ling Manor shall not participate or interfere with it too much. You all are people with influential names. I don't think you'll disobey the rules. Thank you."After that, he sat down.His posture had clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with Bai Haiqin's
On the square stone tables, there was one sword or a few swords.The shapes, scabbards, hilts, and colors of those swords were all different.Some were heavy swords that needed to be held by both hands.Some could be held with a single hand.There were also soft swords, thin swords, and sabers.The boys and girls surrounded the square tables and carefully picked and chose.By the rules, they could only see with their eyes but not touch.Once he reached out his hand, it meant he had chosen the sword.Those qualified to choose had to be the ones with invitations.Lin Beichen casually glanced and found that among those teenagers who had surrounded Cao Potian in the pavilion, only Dongfang Zhan qualified for choosing. People like Xiahou Chong and Xiahou Ang could only watch with yearning eyes but couldn't join in."You turn out to fail to qualify for choosing
Ding Sanshi looked at Lin Beichen's face for more than a score of seconds."I used to trust people easily but was betrayed many times."He looked at those boys and girls picking swords before the square stone tables and said, "Didn't you ask me if I also learned in Baiyun City?"Lin Beichen nodded. "We're on the air and please tell us the story of your life."Ding Sanshi paused and then slapped Lin Beichen's head hard and said, "You jerk, can you be serious? You just ruined the melancholy I created."Lin Beichen smiled annoyingly and said, "The past is in the past. You should just tell the story. You don't need to get immersed in it. The great master in liter... in swordsmanship, Lu Xun, once said that a real warrior dares to face the miserable life and the ghastly blood.""Lu Xun?"Ding Sanshi said doubtfully, "How come I never heard of this name? But, if he can say something like that, he mu
Lin Beichen dragged his big silver sword and returned to his seat with sparks and lightning. By that time, Bai Qinyun had also returned to her original position."Did you really pick this sword?"When Lin Beichen saw the tsundere little girl pick out that heavy light blue sword that needed to be held with both hands, he was taken aback."What do you mean?""It's you who said that this sword is suitable for me," said Bai Qinyun, like a blown-up rabbit."Er..."Lin Beichen was going to say that he was actually joking, but when he saw that the tsundere little girl was so excited, he was afraid that she would swing the sword to kill him if he said it out, so he wisely changed his mind and said, "Yes, this sword is suitable for you, and I have seen it carefully. Yes, you can rest assured."As a result, the expression on Bai Qinyun's face changed from cloudy to sunny.Lin Beichen mutter
At that moment, Bai Qinyun was very happy as well.The more she thought, the more she felt that the name "Greatsword" was good."By the way, have you decided on the name of the sword?"She asked."My humble name (sounds the same as 'sword name' in Chinese)?"Lin Beichen felt very awkward as he replied, "No."He didn't think about the name at all.Instead, he was thinking about...He looked at the square stone tables in the distance.There were still six swords left on them.Tut-tut.Wasn't this a waste?"They're all money!"With a jolt in his heart, Lin Beichen stood up without hesitation and said, "Master Bai, City Lord Ling, I have a question that I want to ask you."Countless eyes instantly focused on Lin Beichen.Ling Junxuan said, "Oh, what's your question, Lin Beichen?"Li
Lin Beichen threw a wink at the little girl Bai Qinyun.The latter immediately jumped out and presented her great, light blue two-handed sword, saying, "Let me first. I'll give it a name... Greatsword."Fan Zu'ang froze.After a moment of silence, the crowd burst into laughter."Greatsword?"What the hell is this name?"But obviously, Bai Qinyun had been brainwashed by Lin Beichen. She was very satisfied with the name. She raised up her neck as beautiful and curvaceous as a cygnet's and said loudly, "What are you laughing at? It's my sword, and I can call it whatever I want. This name is very good... Humph."Lin Beichen lowered his head."Innocent girl, I hope that when you know the name's implied meaning in the future, you will not regret it."After all, Fan Zu'ang was a master in forging swords who had seen much of the world. He calmed down, smiled slightly, display
Everyone's expression changed.The teenagers reached out their hands and held the hilts of their swords.The elders controlled their swords while slightly letting out their Mystery Energy."Clang! Clang! Clang!"The sounds were still echoing.Cao Potian didn't take it seriously at first, but gradually he couldn't suppress his Heaven-Slashing Sword with his spiritual force. He could only put his hand on the sword hilt so that it wouldn't be unsheathed, but the Heaven-Slashing Sword was still struggling in the sheath.As for Dongfang Zhan, he seemed to be in extreme difficultly holding the hilt with both hands, barely controlling the Sword of Fearlessness by his side.The other young men, such as Xue Yan, Song Queyi, Song Qingfeng, Lin Haitang, and the others, all tried their best to control their swords to prevent them from flying away.Bai Qinyun was like a doll hanging onto a gre
Fan Zu'ang listened to the three strange names of the swords in succession, and then became interested in the young man who seemed to be a pure swordsman. In addition, Lin Beichen had cooperated with him to complete the Sword Spirit Enlightening of the Virtue Sword so that his cultivation base could reach a higher level. Therefore, Fan Zu'ang had a very good impression of Lin Beichen.It was no exaggeration to say that among so many young swordsmen and young geniuses here tonight, the person he liked most was Lin Beichen.Therefore, he first hesitated, but after Lin Beichen's confirmation, he engraved the word "Zhengyi" on the blade of the sword.To tell the truth, in the beginning, Fan Zu'ang had thought that it was the word "Justice".Lin Beichen held the "Zhengyi Sword" in his hand and waved it casually.The sword glowed and was soon fully awakened.The integrating degree was still 100%.Bu
