138: Chapter 138 Binding Qin Wushuang, Fame Resounds at the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge Pass

As soon as the words fell, an extremely sharp Sword Intent erupted from his body.

Tenth-level Ethereal Sword Intent, Perfection.

The Sword Intent shot into the sky, tearing a huge hole in the surrounding clouds.

Four types of True Intent at Perfection emerged together—Ice, Water, Fire, and Sword.

Under the harmonization of the Sword Intent, Ice and Fire no longer needed Water to neutralize them. The sharpness of the Sword Intent fused the chill of Ice, the scorching heat of Fire, and the suppleness of Water into one, forming a four-colored sword aura that slashed toward Qin Wushuang.

Qin Wushuang's expression changed drastically. He threw both fists out, pushing his tenth-level Battle Intent and the Will of Metal at Perfection to their limits.

The golden fist light collided with the four-colored sword aura, emitting an earth-shattering roar.

The fist light shattered instantly, and the sword aura, its momentum undiminished, slammed into his chest.

Qin Wushuang's body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the golden Battle Intent on his body was completely shattered.

The entire scene was deathly silent.

The onlookers widened their eyes and gaped.

"What?"

"F-four types of True Intent at Perfection... This, how is this possible?"

"What kind of monster has the Han Family produced? Four True Intents at Perfection, at the Peak Martial King Realm—this combat power has already surpassed an ordinary one-star Martial Emperor, right!"

"Qin Wushuang's Wushuang Battle Physique, the myth of being invincible among the same rank, has been broken today."

Qin Wushuang struggled to stand up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Han Ming. There was no unwillingness in his eyes, only a complex emotion.

He had lost, and he was convinced of his defeat. With four True Intents at Perfection, no matter how strong his Battle Intent was, it couldn't make up for such a gap.

"I lost."

Qin Wushuang took a deep breath. "I, Qin Wushuang, am willing to honor our bet and am willing to take you as my Master."

He knelt on one knee and performed the apprenticeship ritual toward Han Ming.

[Ding, detected that Qin Wushuang has taken the host as his Master. Do you wish to bind the Master-disciple relationship with Qin Wushuang?]

"Bind."

[Ding, binding successful! Detected that the host's disciple, Qin Wushuang, possesses the Wushuang Battle Physique. Synchronizing feedback to the host. Do you wish to fuse now?]

[Ding, detected that the host's disciple, Qin Wushuang, has cultivated the Heaven Rank Low Grade Cultivation Technique "Battle Heaven Art", the Earth Rank High Grade Martial Skill "Golden Light Fist", and the Earth Rank Medium Grade Martial Skill "Golden Light Step". Synchronizing feedback to the host. Do you wish to claim them now?]

[Ding, detected that the host's disciple, Qin Wushuang, has comprehended tenth-level Will of Metal and tenth-level True Intent of Battle. Synchronizing feedback to the host. Do you wish to fuse now?]

Immediately, at the moment of binding, several System notifications rang in Han Ming's mind.

"Do not claim for now."

Han Ming suppressed the excitement in his heart and said to the System in his mind, while simultaneously looking at the kneeling Qin Wushuang and helping him up.

"Good. From now on, you, Qin Wushuang, are my, Han Chunming's, disciple. Let's go, let's go inside your villa to talk."

Qin Wushuang stood up accordingly, a trace of unnaturalness flashing in his eyes.

He had actually taken someone of the same age as his Master?

Before this, he didn't know how many Martial Emperors and Martial Venerables at Modu Martial Arts University had asked to take him as their disciple, and he had refused them all. He never expected that today, he would confusedly take someone of equal strength as his Master.

However, he was a man of his word, so he didn't say anything more and walked toward his villa with Han Ming.

Watching the two enter the villa, the onlookers instantly exploded into a frenzy.

"Four True Intents at Perfection! What is the background of this Han Chunming from the Han Family? Why have we never heard of him before?"

"The Han Family has hidden this too well! A Peak Martial King under thirty, with four True Intents at Perfection, and he even defeated Qin Wushuang head-on! He is simply a Prodigy."

"From today on, the title of 'Invincible in the Martial King Realm' is changing hands. Han Chunming, four True Intents at Perfection—ask yourself, which Martial King could withstand that?"

"It wasn't enough that the Magic City Han Family produced a Han Ming, and now another Han Chunming has popped up. Two Prodigies in one Family—the Han Family's generation is truly Heaven-Defying!"

In an instant, the news that the Magic City Han Family had produced a monstrous Genius, a Peak Martial King who had comprehended four True Intents at Perfection and had defeated Qin Wushuang head-on, spread rapidly throughout Ten Thousand Monster Ridge Pass.

In the crowd, several young men dressed in brocade robes looked solemn.

One of them lowered his voice and said to his companions, "Immediately send a message back to the Li Family: the Han Family has another hidden Genius named Han Chunming, a Peak Martial King in his mid-twenties with four True Intents at Perfection, who defeated Qin Wushuang head-on."

On the other side, the Gu Family disciples also quietly took out their messaging Jade Slips to send the news back to their Family.

In a corner, a true Han Family disciple listened to the discussions of the people around him, his face full of confusion.

Han Chunming?

He had lived in the Han Family for over twenty years, so how had he never heard of this person?

"Peak Martial King? Comprehended four True Intents at Perfection? Very good."

In a courtyard in the south of the city, a middle-aged man with a sinister face had a glint of greed in his eyes as he muttered softly.

If Qin Wushuang were here, he would definitely recognize this person as the Martial Emperor powerhouse who had been hunting him down yesterday.

In Villa 158 in the East City.

Qin Wushuang closed the door, turned to look at Han Ming, his eyes complex.

He had never known defeat in the Martial King Realm, but today he had lost completely.

With four True Intents at Perfection, it was no injustice for him to lose.

Han Ming sat down on the sofa, took three Jade Slips from his pocket, placed them on the coffee table, and said:

"Since you have taken me as your Master, I cannot treat you poorly. Here are three Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills; consider them my gift for your apprenticeship."

Qin Wushuang picked up the first Jade Slip and probed it with his Divine Sense. His pupils constricted slightly—it was a Heaven Rank Low Grade movement Martial Skill, "Star-Stepping Moon-Chasing Step".

He raised his head to look at Han Ming, suppressed the shock in his heart, and picked up the second Jade Slip.

As soon as his Divine Sense probed inside, his breathing hitched again—another Heaven Rank Low Grade Martial Skill—"Fire Dragon Burning Heaven"!

Two Heaven Rank Martial Skills as an apprenticeship gift, just given away casually?

He had passed the 89th level of the Trial Tower and hunted exotic beasts incessantly to exchange for points, only then managing to exchange for a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique suitable for himself, the "Battle Heaven Art", from the school.

This Han Chunming is only a Peak Martial King, right!

He gave him two just after he became his disciple?

His gaze turned to the third Jade Slip; clearly, this one shouldn't be simple either.

When his Divine Sense probed the third Jade Slip, Qin Wushuang froze completely.

A Cultivation Technique above the Divine-Grade—"Ten Thousand Dao Scripture".

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Han Ming in disbelief. "This... is this a Cultivation Technique above the Divine-Grade? How is that possible?"

He was a Genius student of Modu Martial Arts University, a Peak Martial King, knowledgeable and experienced. How many classics of Modu Martial Arts University had he not seen?

He had never heard of a Cultivation Technique above the Divine-Grade.

Now, Han Chunming had actually brought out a Cultivation Technique above the Divine-Grade?

Looking at him, it didn't seem like he was lying. Could it be real?

With a mix of anticipation, suspicion, and trepidation, he turned his Divine Thought toward the content of the Cultivation Technique.

Qin Wushuang's Divine Thought immersed itself in the Jade Slip. The further he read, the more intense the shock in his heart became.

The Heaven Rank Low Grade "Battle Heaven Art" was already a top-tier Cultivation Technique at Modu Martial Arts University. Relying on his Wushuang Battle Physique and this technique, he had swept through the Martial King Realm without a single defeat.

But compared to the "Ten Thousand Dao Scripture" before him, the "Battle Heaven Art" was simply as crude as a Yellow Rank Cultivation Technique.

It ignored talent restrictions, was compatible with all attributes, and the cultivation speed was more than ten times that of a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique.

What really made his breathing quicken was the sentence mentioned in the general outline of the technique: "Ten Thousand Daos return to the origin, pointing directly to the root."

This was not borrowing the power of heaven and earth at all; it was analyzing the essence of the rules of heaven and earth.

If the "Battle Heaven Art" was teaching you how to row a boat across a river, the "Ten Thousand Dao Scripture" was teaching you how to become the river itself.

"This Cultivation Technique... once it spreads, the entire Blue Star will be shaken by it. Even those reclusive old monsters will make a move to snatch it. And you just gave it to me so casually?"

Qin Wushuang raised his head with difficulty, looking at Han Ming in disbelief, his voice dry.

"You are my disciple; isn't it only right that I give it to you?"

Han Ming leaned back on the sofa and said matter-of-factly.

Of course, only he himself knew the real purpose.

If I don't give it to you and let you become strong quickly, how can I become strong quickly?

Qin Wushuang looked at him deeply, carefully put away the three Jade Slips, cupped his hands, and said solemnly:

"Thank you, Master. As for this "Ten Thousand Dao Scripture", I, Qin Wushuang, swear upon my Martial Dao Heart that without your permission, I will never spread a single bit of it."

His tone was filled with respect.

Originally, he hadn't thought much of taking Han Chunming as his Master, seeing it only as a promise to honor a bet.

But now, he had completely accepted Han Chunming as his Master in his heart.

Even if his Realm was the same as his own.

"Alright, Cultivate well and make your Breakthrough to Martial Emperor!"

Han Ming stood up, patted his shoulder, and said.

A strange light flashed deep in his eyes.

It was also time for him to fuse his gains.

He asked Qin Wushuang for a cultivation room and began to go into seclusion.
