Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhang Huan knew that his sword was still too slow. The other party’s last move was a feint, and he did not manage to see through it. Naturally, it was incomparable to Victor’s hidden move.
He looked at Victor’s sword, which was pressed against his abdomen.
If the other party took a slight step forward, he would definitely be pierced through on the abdomen.
With this, although Zhang Huan was extremely unwilling, he understood that a loss was a loss. There was no excuse.
Moreover, the other party had defeated him within three moves.
Zhang Huan thought of how he had arrogantly said that he would let the other party exchange three moves first. He felt that it was ridiculous. There was always someone better than him!
“I, Zhang Huan, is not as good as you. I admit my defeat. Please state your conditions. As long as it does not violate the principles of the sect.” Zhang Huan’s tone was slightly dejected.
Victor heard the other party’s words. Although he was rather unwilling, he secretly nodded in his heart.
In the eyes of the audience, Zhang Huan was an arrogant person. However, he dared to admit his defeat. He was worthy of his status as the number one disciple in the servant hall.
“My request is very simple. You only need to stand on the platform in a half squatted stance for 10 hours,” Victor put away the sword in his hand and said.
“Are you sure?” Zhang Huan was dumbfounded by the simple request.
At first, he thought Victor must have had a difficult task in which he doesn’t want to do. But it turned out to be such a simple request.
“Is it too simple? Do you want me to change it?” Victor teased.
“No, no, no, this condition is very good. There’s no need to change it. I know that Senior Brother Victor must have noticed that my stability is weaker in my lower body, hinting that I need to have a good foundation to practice the Qingyun sword technique.”
Zhang Huan quickly opened his mouth and immediately took a half squatted stance in the arena.
“Ah, this…”
“What did I hear? Senior Brother Zhang admitted defeat?”
“Did he just call Victor senior brother? Victor, whose cultivation level is lower than his?”
“Is this still the same Victor who entered the school three years ago and was stuck in the unrated stage?”
..
“Should we call him senior brother now?”
Hearing that.
At this moment, the disdain in the eyes of all the servant disciples disappeared. Everyone’s eyes were filled with respect.
In the World of Martial Arts, strength deserved respect.
It was very simple. As long as you could win, you would be respected by everyone. No one would care about how you were in the past. Everyone would only look at how your future would be.
“Senior Brother Victor, your sword technique is really strong. Can you give me some pointers?”
“Senior Brother Victor, you and Senior Brother Zhang used the same swords technique. Why is there such a big difference?”
“Senior Brother Victor, what is the secret to breaking through your cultivation barrier in one night?”
..
Facing everyone’s smiling faces, Victor could not directly decline. Moreover, he was downloading Zhang Huan’s cultivation talent and could not walk away.
He could only instruct the enthusiastic disciples around him one by one.
On the roof not far away, a handsome man in a light blue robe was taking everything in. His eyes were filled with shock with what he had just seen.
This man was called Hua Feng, and he was one of the personal disciples of the great elder of the Qingyun Sect. He happened to be strolling around today, and he did not expect to see such an exciting competition.
Especially Victor’s last move, which wasn’t someone with an ordinary comprehension of the Qingyun sword technique could perform.
It seemed like he had to talk to his master.
..
A few hours later.
Victor felt that it was almost time, and the surrounding disciples had also left one by one after they had gained something.
“Alright, that’s it for today. You guys should go back first. You can spar with each other and guide each other to tackle the questions I have mentioned just now!”
Just as Victor dismissed the disciples who were surrounding him that were unwilling to leave.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully downloading a level five talent. Would you like to absorb it immediately?”
Five hours later, the system’s pleasant voice sounded once again.
Victor’s heart was filled with passion as he immediately ran out of the arena.
Zhang Huan, who had almost forgotten that he was still in a squatted stance, casually greeted the surrounding disciples who were still sparring and practicing.
After informing Zhang Huan, he then ran to a remote place eagerly.
“System, begin to absorb!” Victor shouted in his mind.
Boom!
An inexplicable power appeared once again and enveloped Victor’s entire body.
Endless pain spread from every inch of his body to his brain, as if his body was on the verge of cracking.
Even though he had an absorption experience before, it wasn’t any better the second time.
After enduring the pain for ten minutes, Victor felt refreshed all over.
Leaning against the wall, he summoned his attribute panel.
Name: Victor
Cultivation method: Qingyun Mantra (max level), Qingyun sword technique (max level)
Cultivation talent: Level five
Cultivation realm: Beginner stage of the third-rate realm
Seeing his cultivation talent change from level three to level five, Victor felt that it was all worth it.
However, Victor still had a question in his heart.
The system’s function was to absorb, not to overlap.
He had absorbed a level five talent on top of his original level three talent.
Regarding this question, the system quickly answered.
Talent could be stacked, so his level five talent was still slightly stronger than Zhang Huan’s level five talent.
Unfortunately, the same person’s talent could only be downloaded once.
Moreover, even if he downloaded all the talents below level five in the servant hall, he still would not be able to reach a level six talent.
Hence, he might as well find an opportunity to enter the martial arts peak and directly download an official disciple’s level six cultivation talent.
It was getting late. Victor gathered his emotions and prepared to return to his dormitory to rest.
Victor stepped into the courtyard and found that all his roommates were waiting in the courtyard as if they were expecting something.
He was equally puzzled, so he didn’t care and proceeded to walked straight in.
Subsequently, everyone surrounded him one by one, looking at him with excitable eyes. There was even a hint of shock as if they had seen a monster.
“Victor, you defeated Senior Brother Zhang?” One of the short men asked carefully.
“Oh, you guys heard about it?” Victor replied indifferently.
“Senior Brother Victor, please have a seat, please have a seat!” Hearing Victor’s indirect admission, everyone changed the way they addressed Victor instantly.
Everyone became very enthusiastic.
“Senior Brother Victor, are you thirsty? I’ll get you some water!”
“Senior Brother Victor, the food in the cafeteria was getting cold. I saw that you came back late, so I specially packed a portion and kept it warm for you.”
..
Looking at his roommates who were concerned about his well-being, he recalled the cold expressions of theirs in the last month, Victor felt a wave of emotion in his heart.
This world only valued strength. As long as you displayed and proved your strength, you would be respected by others.
That was the truth of this world.
Victor was not a pretentious person. Facing his roommates’ adoration, he responded them one by one. Suddenly, the entire dormitory was bustling with noise and excitement.
Ye Hao, who was originally the bully of the dormitory, was now like a little brother.
He pointed at a big bed that was big enough for two people to sleep on and said,
“Senior Brother Victor, what do you think of my bed’s position? I have cleaned and tidied it, just waiting for you to use it!”
Victor enjoyed the warm service of the people, and his heart became more determined.
After dinner, Victor immediately got up and left, ready to start his evening training.
