Chapter 1200: Chapter 257: Leaving a Name on Emperor Sword Cliff (Part 3)

“Alright.”

He replied with a voice transmission.

Li Tie Mu gave him a sidelong glance, agreeing so readily, this guy.

At this moment, Wei Hongye also arrived, and in addition, two other disciples from the Heavenly Institute came to watch. Wei Hongye chatted briefly with them; both were disciples of Zhou Qingyun.

“Let’s begin.”

Li Tie Mu, seeing the time was almost right, straightened his expression and said to Li Hao and Yue Xi: “Are you ready?”

Yue Xi’s eyes shone with light, exuding confidence and calm. She glanced at Li Hao beside her and said composedly, “Ready to draw the sword at any time.”

“Okay, then you go first.”

Li Tie Mu, seeing her so confident, his eyes slightly brightened.

Without any hesitation, Yue Xi, under the surprised gazes of everyone else, suddenly flipped her hand. The purple-gold long sword of the Heavenly Institute’s disciple emerged, instantly drawing a stunning sword mark in the void, as if a Banished Immortal in the mortal world pointed toward the sky, tracing countless rays of light.

Then, she retrieved her sword, her expression calm, and the whole process ended within a breath.

“Excellent, excellent, excellent!”

Li Tie Mu’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but laugh out loud with excitement, not expecting Yue Xi could truly master and comprehend this in fifteen days; her talent indeed did not disappoint him.

Zhou Qingyun was slightly stunned, but then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Wei Hongye and Xu Jianming exchanged a glance, and they could see the helplessness in each other’s eyes; this little junior sister was indeed a monster.

Li Tie Mu turned his expectant gaze towards Li Hao and said, “What about you?”

Li Hao, seeing this, decisively brought his fingers together to form a sword, lightly slicing through the void, revealing a hint of Immortal Sword Intent.

Compared to the commotion Yue Xi caused, Li Hao’s display was much more gentle, with a significantly smaller presence.

Yue Xi glanced, her eyebrows slightly raised.

Li Tie Mu laughed and said, “Good, I indeed did not misjudge you both.”

Zhou Qingyun’s expression was peculiar; this Old Man Li really hit the jackpot this time, actually picking up two treasures.

Wei Hongye and Xu Jianming were relatively calm; previously, they knew Li Hao’s Dao Heart Realm was higher than Yue Xi’s, so Li Hao’s performance at this moment seemed natural to them.

Beside them, Zhou Qingyun’s two disciples exposed expressions of shock in their eyes, suddenly feeling the future competition in the Heavenly Institute would become intense.

“Old Zhou, you made a futile trip, so we’ll be taking our leave first.”

Li Tie Mu cheekily said to Zhou Qingyun.

Zhou Qingyun was secretly fuming, thinking this old thing only wanted him to come to show off?

Li Tie Mu didn’t give Zhou Qingyun a chance to speak, quickly leaving with Li Hao and the others.

“Since you both have mastered the first style, do pay careful attention to the second style, Immortal Draws the Sword.”

Li Tie Mu took Li Hao and Yue Xi and the other disciples to his dojo, speaking to Yue Xi and Li Hao.

Then, he began to wield his sword, teaching Yue Xi and Li Hao the second style.

His sword light shot out sharply, the brilliance fierce, like the sun and moon revealing behind clouds, the flash of light extremely dazzling.

Yue Xi focused intently, but her brow gradually furrowed, with faint beads of sweat appearing.

This sword was far more intricate than the Immortal Points the Way, not something one could memorize with a single glance, the sharp Sword Intent seeming to ring sharply in the mind.

Meanwhile, Li Hao saw a panel prompt appear before him.

[You have comprehended the ’Immortal Draws the Sword’ basics. Record it?]

Record it.

Li Hao recorded it and then saw the panel displayed it as entry-level.

Simultaneously, numerous light and shadows appeared in his mind, presenting many of the sword’s techniques and Sword Intent.

With his Tenth Stage Sword Dao comprehension, he could barely appreciate it at the entry-level.

Li Hao felt if this sword were cultivated to perfection, it could barely rival one of the top ten supreme Immortal Techniques, Qingtian Swordsmanship.

This also showed how deeply rooted this Great Dream Nine Abysses of ten thousand years ago’s Tianyi Sect was indeed.

“Did you memorize it?”

Li Tie Mu, after teaching, held the sword but did not put it away, instead smilingly looking at Li Hao and Yue Xi.

Yue Xi frowned without speaking and after a long time said, “I didn’t memorize it.”

Li Tie Mu laughed heartily and said, “Not memorizing it is right; if you remembered it in one go, then this master should let you become the master.”

Saying this, he continued, “I’ll do it again, feel it well, and if you still can’t memorize it, then privately ask your senior brothers and sisters.”

Wei Hongye and Xu Jianming listened with resignation; this master liked playing the hands-off role, as back then, they were all taught by the senior brother.

And all day couldn’t find anyone, not knowing what he was busy with.

At this moment, Li Tie Mu already started demonstrating the second time.

Li Hao, though already at entry-level, watched intently.

Watching it this time, there were differences from before, and from an entry-level perspective, the sword’s intricacy and terror could be felt but were still beyond his grasp to comprehend.

Beads of sweat on Yue Xi’s forehead grew finer, her eyes gradually showing a trace of silvery-white, the pupils emitting a light, for a long time, until Li Tie Mu finished teaching, the light in her eyes gradually retracted and dispersed, she merely quietly closed her eyes.

Li Tie Mu didn’t inquire or disturb, glancing at the two disciples, seeing Li Hao’s thoughtful look; he smiled, put away the sword, and turned to leave with a flick of his sleeves.

“Little Junior Brother, did you memorize it? If not, I can demonstrate again for you.”

Xu Jianming said to Li Hao.

Li Hao returned to his senses, shook his head and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother, I’ve already memorized it.”

“You’ve memorized it?”

Wei Hongye and Xu Jianming were both stunned. If Yue Xi had memorized it, they might find it understandable, but they had been watching the two of them closely, noting Li Hao seemed obviously more relaxed, without forcing himself to remember, yet now he actually said he memorized it.

At this time, Yue Xi also opened her eyes and glanced at Li Hao before calmly saying, “I memorized it too.”
