132: My mentor
Cold Iron Garment, guided by Vice Commander Wang Yi and Su Qi, arrived next to Hei Da's corpse.
Vice Commander Wang Yi frowned.
"There are no wounds on the body. He was not killed by a Sharp Weapon. His expression is ferocious, clearly showing he endured unbearable pain before death. This method resembles an invisible attack, like a mental assault!"
Su Qi shook his head.
"Among the contestants this year, not a single one possesses the mental attribute."
Vice Commander Wang Yi narrowed his eyes. "Perhaps he has dual attributes, and the mental attribute was hidden!"
At this moment, Cold Iron Garment spoke!
"Dual-attribute Geniuses are incredibly rare; they don't just pop up this easily!"
Vice Commander Wang Yi and Su Qi exchanged a look, their expressions strange.
Cold Iron Garment raised his cloudy eyes.
"What? Is what I said incorrect?"
Vice Commander Wang Yi gave an awkward laugh.
"Elder Han, your words are naturally correct, but this year, there truly is a dual-attribute Genius!"
Cold Iron Garment's eyelids twitched, and a sharp gleam flashed in his eyes.
"Oh? Where is he?"
Vice Commander Wang Yi was about to answer when he suddenly looked in a certain direction.
A commotion had broken out there.
Wei Xuan and the others also looked over, shocked.
"Dean!"
Outside the cordon set up by the Tiger Guards, a person was desperately pushing forward, covered in sweat.
He kept shouting, "Let me through! Let me through!"
The Tiger Guard Army members there couldn't stop him and were forced to retreat repeatedly!
They reluctantly raised their guns to warn him!
"Step back! Step back!"
"First warning! Step back!"
"Second warning!"
"Third..."
"Let him come over!"
Su Qi shouted!
Vice Commander Wang Yi looked at Su Qi in surprise, hesitating to speak.
Su Qi smiled faintly and shook his head.
The Tiger Guards immediately opened a path, allowing Dean Qi to rush into the Dragon Tiger Plaza.
Question marks arose in the minds of Wei Xuan and the others.
Why is the Dean here?
Cold Iron Garment let out a cold snort and swept his gaze over Su Qi, frightening Su Qi so much that he broke out in a cold sweat!
He quickly bowed and said, "Elder Han, please do not be offended!"
Dean Qi finally ran up close after a short dash and gratefully said to Su Qi, "Brother Su, thank you!"
Su Qi smiled and nodded. "Brother Qi, don't mention it."
Dean Qi stood behind Cold Iron Garment, gazing at the ancient figure before him. Tears instantly streamed down his face, and his lips were dry.
With a "thump," he knelt down!
He said tremblingly, "Qi Yunxing pays respects to his Honored Teacher!"
This kneel completely stunned Wei Xuan and the others!
That somewhat fierce-looking old man was actually the Dean's Honored Teacher?
The scene stirred up another wave of commotion.
Countless people were confused.
"Who is this person? Why did he just go up and kneel?"
"That old man seems... seems to be... I remember now! He is the Sword Sect Senior!"
"What! Is that... real or fake!"
"The Sword Sect Senior! Oh my goodness! I... I'm seeing a legend!"
"Excuse me, Uncle, who is the Sword Sect Senior? Can you tell me more about him?"
"Hmph! Do the younger generation not even know what these words represent anymore!"
"Who is the person kneeling? He looks like someone very close to the Sword Sect Senior!"
The experienced media personnel instantly recognized Dean Qi.
"That is Dean Qi Yunxing of the Qingcheng Spirit Martial Academy!"
"And he is also the student of the Sword Sect Senior!"
In an instant, all the media went crazy, taking photos of Dean Qi and Cold Iron Garment, the flashes blinking incessantly!
Cold Iron Garment suddenly turned around, his eyes sharp as swords, and a strong gust of wind immediately arose!
The media personnel were instantly shaken, retreating one after another, too scared to speak or take more pictures, their hearts pounding with lingering fear!
This man's temper is famously foul!
Even several Transcendent Venerables dare not provoke him!
If he actually decided to fight, they would truly be beaten for nothing!
Cold Iron Garment glanced at Dean Qi, who was still kneeling, and snorted coldly.
"Get up! Stop making a spectacle of yourself here!"
Dean Qi was overjoyed, his heart filled with overwhelming excitement!
"Yes, Teacher!"
He stood up, then followed respectfully behind Cold Iron Garment like a docile kitten.
Cold Iron Garment looked toward Vice Commander Wang Yi again.
"Where is the dual-attribute Genius you mentioned?"
Vice Commander Wang Yi quickly pointed at Wei Xuan in the distance.
"Elder Han, it's that young man! His name is Wei Xuan, and he has dual Lightning Attribute and Fire Attribute! Both attributes are top-grade!"
Cold Iron Garment and Dean Qi looked in the direction pointed out by Vice Commander Wang Yi.
Cold Iron Garment nodded. "Not bad! A promising talent has emerged!"
Then he withdrew his gaze.
Dean Qi was stunned.
"Vice Commander Wang Yi! You are wrong! He does not have dual attributes!"
Vice Commander Wang Yi's face darkened!
"Nonsense! I personally saw him use Fire Attribute and Lightning Attribute Battle Techniques in the trial grounds! He even learned the Martial Venerable's Zhurong Palm! How can he not have dual attributes! Even if you are Elder Han's student, you shouldn't talk rubbish!"
Su Qi also looked at Dean Qi, thoroughly confused.
Cold Iron Garment glanced expressionlessly at Dean Qi.
"Stop spouting nonsense!"
Dean Qi stomped his foot!
"Honored Teacher, I really am not talking nonsense! This Wei Xuan truly does not have dual attributes!"
Cold Iron Garment's expression became somewhat unpleasant.
Su Qi quickly pulled Dean Qi aside.
"Brother Qi! Stop talking! We all saw it with our own eyes, how could it be wrong! Isn't he your student! You shouldn't try to hide things even from Elder Han!"
"Hmm?"
Cold Iron Garment and Vice Commander Wang Yi looked over in surprise.
Wei Xuan is his student?
A hint of joy flashed in Cold Iron Garment's eyes, but he kept a cold expression, staring directly at Dean Qi.
Dean Qi said with a bitter smile, "How could I hide anything from my Honored Teacher! Wei Xuan is indeed my student, but he truly does not have dual attributes! He has triple attributes!"
!!!
"What!"
Vice Commander Wang Yi's and Su Qi's eyes instantly widened!
Cold Iron Garment's body trembled, and his withered hand gripped Dean Qi's wrist fiercely.
It actually produced a "crack" sound of bone splitting!
Dean Qi's mouth twitched!
However, the smugness in the corner of his eye couldn't be hidden!
Vice Commander Wang Yi shook his head frantically.
"Impossible! How can there be a triple-attribute Martial Artist! Are you crazy?"
Su Qi was also somewhat skeptical.
Cold Iron Garment stared intently at Dean Qi, his gaze sharp! Dean Qi shivered, feeling his body enveloped by a powerful Sword Intent, as if his head would be separated from his body the next second, daring not to move recklessly!
Cold Iron Garment's hoarse voice sounded out, word by word.
"Say that again!"
Dean Qi took a deep breath and stated solemnly, "Honored Teacher, Wei Xuan is indeed not dual-attribute! He has triple attributes!"
!!!
Cold Iron Garment's cloudy old eyes suddenly contracted!
His whole body shook!
Ten thousand streams of Sword Qi surged from his body, unrestrained, ravaging the sky above the entire Dragon Tiger Plaza!
Like ten million Dragons, they instantly sliced the space into pieces!
At this moment, the weather changed! Everyone looked terrified!
The great terror between life and death lingered in their hearts!
Su Qi and Vice Commander Wang Yi were also stunned by Dean Qi's words, but they were terrified by the Sword Qi that Cold Iron Garment inadvertently released in his shock!
Vice Commander Wang Yi quickly shouted!
"Elder Han!"
The shock faded from Cold Iron Garment's eyes. He quickly waved his hand, and the countless streams of Sword Qi in the sky dispersed, restoring the atmosphere to its original state!
Everyone was covered in cold sweat!
Dean Qi was soaked through!
Holy crap! I almost lost my life just to show off this one time!
Cold Iron Garment, for the first time ever, revealed a smile, although it was a very ugly smile.
But it stunned Vice Commander Wang Yi and the two others!
Elder Han's smile was absolutely rarer than a meteor hitting the Blue Star!
Was this the first time Elder Han had smiled in his life?
Cold Iron Garment smiled at Wei Xuan, extending his hand with a benevolent expression.
"Come! Child! Come here!"
