173: The demonstration was actually real! It was amazing!
“You’ve already comprehended it? Are you sure you’re not joking?”
Hu Yiwei, who was patrolling with his hands behind his back, froze. When he clearly saw that it was Li Ziyu, he furrowed his brows and looked at Li Ziyu suspiciously, warning him, “Student, I hope you understand that this is a very serious test!
If you’re just messing around for attention, I will directly disqualify you from the test.”
He had just announced the start, and it hadn’t even been two minutes, had it?
His tea hadn’t even cooled yet, and a group of judges were still backstage and hadn’t come out, when someone claimed to have already comprehended the Swift Wind Blade Technique?
Hu Yiwei felt that Li Ziyu was joking and deliberately trying to show off.
After all, teenagers at this age all like to show themselves off.
“Tsk, is Li Ziyu preparing to take a different path, trying to gain the admiration of Xingyao Wusheng Martial Saint by attracting attention?
Heh heh, how foolish!”
Below the stage, Li Yang, who was watching the battle, was also stunned when he heard Li Ziyu’s words, but then he looked at Li Ziyu with a sneer.
Although they all came from two hundred years in the future and had two hundred years of cultivation experience ahead of this world.
But to master a Battle Skill in one or two minutes, that was impossible.
Even in later generations, few people could do it.
“I thought it was someone important, but it turns out to be a clown.”
“Boring.”
In the arena.
Lin Wuji and Wang Chaoyue, who were flipping through secret manuals to comprehend, looked up and glanced at Li Ziyu, then shook their heads and withdrew their gazes.
If he wanted to put on a show, he should wait a few more minutes.
It had only been two minutes, and he was already claiming to have comprehended the Battle Skill. He didn’t even know how to attract attention logically.
He had just thought Li Ziyu had an extraordinary aura and that he was someone important.
Now it seemed he was just a clown.
“Good heavens, is this big brother really that bold?
This situation makes me nervous, yet this big brother actually dares to joke around. I’m impressed!”
The honest-looking young man sitting next to Li Ziyu looked down at the secret manual in his hand, then looked up at Li Ziyu, a flash of admiration in his eyes.
Li Ziyu ignored everyone’s doubts.
He had expected this long ago.
After all, instantly comprehending a Battle Skill, even in the martial arts flourishing Great Xia two hundred years later, was a shocking thing.
Not to mention two hundred years ago when martial arts had just begun.
However, the mission required Xingyao Wusheng Martial Saint to be impressed and convinced by his talent, so it had to be done thoroughly!
Thinking this.
Li Ziyu stopped talking nonsense, walked to the weapon rack, took out a long, narrow battle saber, and came to the center of the arena.
“He’s actually serious?”
“This person couldn’t have really comprehended it, could he?”
“How is that possible? He must be bluffing. I haven’t even officially opened the book yet, and someone has already mastered it. This is absolutely impossible. I am the top scholar of Su Province!”
Seeing that Li Ziyu seemed genuinely prepared to demonstrate, everyone put down their secret manuals and focused their gaze on Li Ziyu.
Lin Wuji and Wang Chaoyue were no exception. They frowned and looked at Li Ziyu’s figure, a hint of suspicion flashing in their hearts.
Could this person be serious?
Including Li Yang, who was watching below the stage, he also looked suspicious.
Li Ziyu couldn’t be serious, could he?
But is that possible?
“Go invite the judges to come up.”
Seeing that Li Ziyu had already chosen a weapon and didn’t seem to be faking it, Hu Yiwei quickly ordered the guard beside him.
To prevent anyone from trying to pass off as skilled, they had also invited four martial artists who had a deep understanding of the Swift Wind Blade Technique to be judges.
These four martial artists, it was said, had cultivated the Swift Wind Blade Technique for over twenty years.
According to their own words, if the Swift Wind Blade Technique had a proficiency level, then they had cultivated it to its peak realm!
Very impressive!
“You said someone comprehended the Swift Wind Blade Technique in two minutes? Isn’t that a joke?”
“I don’t think we need to look. It’s clearly a lie. I suggest directly eliminating this young man named Student Li Ziyu.”
In a villa next to the square, four elderly judge-mentors who were drinking tea frowned at the guard relaying the order, snorted coldly, and looked disbelieving.
“When we first started learning this Swift Wind Blade Technique, it took us a full four hours. You’re saying someone mastered it in less than a minute? That’s simply a fantasy!”
“I’d like to see who’s spouting nonsense here!”
These four judges, with ruddy complexions and youthful faces despite their white hair, all snorted coldly, put down their teacups, stood up, and strode with powerful steps to the test platform in the square.
Following Hu Yiwei’s guidance, they looked at Li Ziyu.
Their gaze was as if they were looking at a clown.
“Student Li Ziyu, these four are masters of the Swift Wind Blade Technique. With them here, we can determine if your Swift Wind Blade Technique has reached the introductory level.
You can begin now.”
Hu Yiwei said to Li Ziyu with a smile.
“Alright.”
Li Ziyu nodded.
Then, with a movement of his hand, he gently raised the long saber in his hand.
Then he fiercely slashed down towards the empty ground in front of him!
In an instant, a flash of green saber light whistled out.
A silver streak several meters long, originating from the tip of Li Ziyu’s saber, fiercely struck the asphalt ground in front of him.
Crack, crack, crack.
Accompanied by the sound of shattering glass, a crack instantly spread across the asphalt ground in front of Li Ziyu, extending for dozens of meters.
This wasn’t over yet!
After Li Ziyu struck the asphalt ground, he swung his hand back again!
As this saber strike was unleashed, the entire test square seemed to stand still.
In that instant, the saber in Li Ziyu’s hand seemed to transform into dozens of sabers, directly manifesting circles of saber shadows all around him!
Like a Thousand-Hand Guanyin!
At this moment, a gust of wind happened to blow, causing the leaves on both sides of the trees to flutter.
The leaves, after passing through the dancing shadows of Li Ziyu, quietly fell to the ground.
But the four judges, including everyone watching in the arena, stared intently at the leaves that had fallen to the ground.
They saw that after the leaves fell, they directly turned into dust!
The wind blew, and they dissipated with the wind.
Everyone gasped.
Li Ziyu’s saber movements were so fast just now that in that instant, he had already struck hundreds of times, reducing the nearby passing leaves to dust!
After the set of Knife Skill was finished, the scene suddenly became silent, with everyone staring at each other in wide-eyed astonishment.
“Judges, what do you think of the Swift Wind Blade Technique used by Li Ziyu?
What realm has he reached?”
Hu Yiwei’s eyes flashed with admiration as he curiously asked the four judges beside him.
Li Ziyu’s set of Knife Skill just now flowed like water, watching it was simply a pleasure.
This didn’t look like someone who had just mastered the Swift Wind Blade Technique, did it?
Hu Yiwei thought.
However, he didn’t understand the Swift Wind Blade Technique and couldn’t tell, so he could only ask the judges beside him.
