Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The south gate of the training ground.
At this moment. Victor and Yu Haoming, who was under the house and on the roof respectively, stared at each other.
On the roof.
Yu Haoming looked at Victor curiously, his eyes could not hide the surprise in them!
He had already noticed that there was something wrong with this kid when he was on the east side of the roof.
Everyone was preparing for the sect competition. Some were discussing, some were warming up, and some were trembling in nervousness.
He had seen it all, but this kid didn’t do anything. He just strolled around with an emotionless expression on his face.
He was even more leisurely than him. He was almost as leisurely as those old grandpas in their 70s and 80s back home.
At a glance, it was obvious that he was one of those disciples who didn’t have any ambition. Although the sect master often said thathe didn’t do his job properly but he was very talented. What right did this kid have?
However, he wasn’t sure if he had made a mistake but there was something wrong with this kid’s Wind technique!
Under the eaves.
Victor did not expect that Elder Yu to wait for him here.
Victor awkwardly curled the corners of his mouth and pretended to smile.
“System, how long will it take to download the Xuan-grade talent?”
“Ding, it will take thirteen hours to download the Xuan-grade talent. Would the host like to download it now?”
At the same time, Victor began to ask the system in his mind, but when he heard the time, his head started to hurt.
Song Qianqian’s level nine talent required nine hours for download, so 13 hours was considered normal. However, it was practically impossible for him to stay within 20 meters of the fourth elder for 13 hours.
The sect competition did not say that it would go on for 13 hours without breaks.
Moreover, it was impossible for him to stay on the training field all the time. He could leave any time.
This was a Xuan-grade talent. Other than the elders, no one else could have it. The seven elders of the Qingyun Sect tend to be elusive.
Except for the first elder, who was basically in charge of all the big and small matters in the sect.
He wouldn’t know when would be the next time he would see these elders.
Download!
He had to download it!
Victor was a little hesitant. He had a speed card. As long as he used the card, he could have it downloaded instantly.
It was just that he had been reluctant to use it previously as he wanted to use it on Sect Leader Zhang Lingren. Otherwise, he would feel that it was a waste.
But now, he had to make a choice.
“System, use the speed card. Download Yu Haoming’s cultivation talent and self-created martial arts skill!”
Victor frowned and made this decision decisively.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully downloading the beginner Xuan-grade cultivation talent. Congratulations to the host for successfully downloading the Thunder Eagle. Would you like to absorb it?”
“Not yet.”
Hearing the system’s notification tone, Victor jumped up excitedly on the spot.
With the Xuan-grade talent, the speed at which he accumulates internal energy would become even faster. This also meant that his advancement speed would increase by several levels.
On the roof.
Fourth Elder Yu Haoming looked at Victor in shock.
Does this disciple have some kind of mental illness?
Looking at Victor’s comical expression, he was then reminded of Victor’s emotionless expression.
Mental illness. Yes, that must be the case!
The fourth elder looked at Victor with a hint of pity.
Sigh, what a good seedling. His accomplishments in the Wind technique were almost as good as mine. What a pity!
Yu Haoming stroked his nonexistent beard and sighed.
“This disciple…” Yu Haoming wanted to comfort him, but just as he opened his mouth, he saw this disciple run away like a mouse that had seen a cat.
..
After finding a training room, Victor let out a deep breath.
“Fortunately, I ran away quickly. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know how to explain it. Anyway, the elder wouldn’t put a disciple like me in his eyes.”
In the quiet room, Victor calmed himself down. He sat on the futon, crossed his legs, and adjusted his breathing.
“System, absorb the beginner stage Xuan-grade talent and Thunder Eagle!”
The next moment.
An unknown yet familiar power began to wash over his entire body.
A heart-wrenching pain affected every inch of Victor’s skin. At the same time, all the information about the Thunder Eagle flooded into his mind.
Ten minutes passed.
The pain faded away slowly. Victor felt as if he had transformed from a chrysalis into a butterfly, as if his whole body was brand new.
Victor immediately summoned his attribute panel.
Name: Victor
Cultivation methods: Qingyun mantra (max level), Qingyun Sword technique (max level), Qingyun Mystic Wood technique (max level), Seven Stars Sword technique (max level), Wind technique (max level), Gale Palm (max level), Thunder Eagle (max level)
Cultivation Talent: Beginner Xuan-grade talent
Sword Talent: Level three
Cultivation realm: Beginner stage of the second-rate realm
Seeing the “beginner Xuan-grade” behind his cultivation talent, Victor’s calm mood was excited again.
“A Xuan-grade talent?”
With a thought, the green robe on Victor’s body fluttered without the presence of any wind.
Under the circulation of the maximum level Mystic Wood technique, strands of true energy rapidly increased.
Half an hour later.
Victor opened his eyes aggressively.
An unconcealable joy could be seen on his face.
“This speed is simply terrifying!”
If his previous cultivation speed was equivalent to a bug crawling on the ground, now it was like a dragon swimming out to sea.
Whether it was in terms of speed, scale, or quality.
They were all much higher.
Even Victor himself was shocked by this kind of cultivation speed.
“Is this still considered human? Feels more like a monster.”
Victor deeply realized how wise and fitting his previous decision was.
He had originally planned to use it on Sect Master Zhang Lingren, but now he should be glad that he will have an opportunity to get close to the elders.
The sect master only appeared once every few decades, and the elders were also absent all year round. Even during the annual sect competition, the elders would leave after being present for a short while.
After all, there were two core disciples present. Even if problems were to occur within the sect, the elders could quickly rush to the scene.
It is a good thing that Victor was lucky and decisive, and he made good use of the opportunity when he saw an elder basking in the sun.
If he missed it, even if he had the speed card, he wouldn’t have any place to use it. It would have been a greater loss than profit.
Moreover, cultivating a grade nine talent for one year and a beginner Xuan-grade talent for one year, the outcome could be said to be completely different.
On the arena of the Martial Arts Peak.
Hua Feng looked at the name list in his hand with some suspicion in his eyes.
Then, he carefully looked at the name list again. From the beginning to the end, careful to not miss a single name.
After checking again, he put down the name list in his hand and handed it to Gu Xu beside him.
“Junior brother, is there a problem?”
Gu Xu also saw that something was wrong. After all, Hua Feng usually didn’t care about anything. It was rare to see Junior Brother Hua care about something so much.
Gu Xu even saw a trace of pity and disappointment in his eyes.
Some of the disciples who were closer to the ring had been paying attention noticed Hua Feng’s strange behavior.
They also heard Gu Xu’s question.
Soon, many of the disciples also sensed that something was wrong and started to mumble, discussing about Senior Brother Hua.
At the same time, everyone looked at Hua Feng curiously, hoping that he would answer everyone’s questions.
