Novel Full Chapter 256 - Shu Xian
"Senior Brother Shu Xian, Senior Sister Yuan Shuchun has called a meeting."
Shu Xian frowned.
'Meeting? Did something happen?' He was quite surprised.
The meeting referred to here was, of course, the one related to the Heavenly League.
He stood up and opened the door of his cultivation abode.
In front of him appeared a nervous Inner Court Disciple.
Ignoring the shivering, Shu Xian asked, "When will it start?"
The disciple cleared his throat and replied, "Should start in an hour or two."
Shu Xian nodded and, without saying anything, closed the door.
He didn't know what this meeting was about, and there wasn't any point in asking the disciple about it.
That guy was just a messenger. It was the lowest Rank in Heavenly League.
This was the rank where the rookies started from. Even he did this work when he was new.
But there had been exceptions.
And this time, there were actually two of them!
In fact, he had only anticipated one of these two disciples, while the other was just an average talent in his eyes.
The first disciple was Fang Chen.
A talented guy and a very lucky one.
At first, Yuan Shuchun made him a core disciple in name, but the next day, she changed the decision, and everything changed.
Sometime later, Yuan Shuchun gave him insider info - Fang Chen was in the Sword Stele.
The first thing that Shu Xian felt after hearing this was that Fang Chen was undeserving of this.
In his eyes, he had only won the Inner Court Entrance Hunt.
Why the hell was he given such an amazing reward?
And a few days later, he found out something that gave him a way to kick Fang Chen out of the way before he could even create trouble for him in the coming future.
He successfully incited the two disciples from a sect called Heaven Oracle Sect.
Supposedly this sect was a powerful sect from the Middle Heavens. However, Shu Xian didn't care about them - he only wanted to get Fang Chen out of the way.
By a little wordplay, he hinted that Fang Chen knew a big secret of the Sect.
And now, he only needed to wait and enjoy the show as Fang Chen danced in the palms of those two disciples.
The other disciple was none other than Xiao Ming.
Shu Xian closed his eyes and didn't put any more thought into him.
'It isn't time yet.' He reassured himself and began to prepare for the coming meeting.
…
Ye Tian Yun took in a deep breath and slowly released it.
Repeating the same process again and again, Ye Tian Yun continued his meditation, trying to free up his mind.
To be specific, he was trying to remove his focus from a nagging feeling that he was getting for about some time now.
After arguing with the system and with no results, he began to focus on cultivating while waiting for the disciples of Heaven Oracle Sect to knock on his cultivation abode.
But suddenly, there was this feeling.
And it wasn't anything good.
In fact, he even felt for a second that big trouble was coming his way, and he had no clue what this was.
Thus he started to meditate, but the feeling just won't go away.
Letting out a long breath, Ye Tian Yun once again finished a cycle of meditation.
However, the weird feeling still persisted.
Frowning, Ye Tian Yun got up from his cross-legged position and decided to take a walk outside.
'I hope those people don't come while I am out; that would be just too bad of a luck.'
Even though he felt something bad about to happen, Ye Tian Yun still decided to go ahead with his decision and moved towards the cultivation abode door.
Coming out, he found the hustling bustling Sixth floor as a wave of disciples was coming into their cultivation abode.
He didn't need to ask anyone to know where they were coming from.
Gracious Sword Rankings Tournament.
It was afternoon right now, so there was most probably a break for everyone to take some rest.
This was a months-long tournament, and the sect was never in a hurry to finish it because they always wanted to fish out the most talented disciples within the sect.
Though this time, the first round was only going to be a month-long and would soon be coming to an end.
To Ye Tian Yun, this whole event was not something he needed to bother about.
It would only create more hassle for him, and not forgetting the secret mission assigned by the sect master would begin while the tournament was still going on.
Finally, Ye Tian Yun was only a few steps away from this seemingly unending journey for the Token Of Fate.
Ye Tian Yun might not be sure about how things would pan out, but he was confident that he wouldn't lose to anyone.
Especially now that he had gone through a huge breakthrough and increased his cultivation by four more levels.
This was not a small power-up.
And then there was his Sword Intent.
It was his Sword Intent.
If Ye Tian Yun still failed with two such boosts, it would be better if he just jumped off a cliff.
Ye Tian Yun was thinking about his Sword Intent; he remembered something he hadn't paid attention to.
'System, show me my Status.'

'System, why is it that my Sword Intent is still at only one percent?' Didn't you once tell me that it would increase based on the stability of my Sword Intent?'
