“Oh, a feast for the eyes?” Yang Xiaotian saw the smile on Zheng Zhipeng’s face and knew exactlv what he had in mind.
“Since you managed to cultivate Sword Thirteen to the Perfection Realm within a year, it shows your Sword Dao Talent is incredible. I presume your Four Seasons Sword Technique must also be well cultivated,” Zheng Zhipeng smiled and said, “Let us have our eyes opened and learn something.”
Chen Bingyao, who had been defeated by Yang Xiaotian twice, also clamored, “Yang Xiaotian, you wouldn’t be too scared to display it, would you? Or is it that your Four Seasons Sword Technique isn’t even at the entry level?” Then he laughed and said, “Not even at the entry level.”
Everyone laughed.
But Yang Xiaotian turned his head and said to Cao Lu, “I remember the academy has a rule that as long as the compulsory martial techniques are cultivated to the Great Accomplishment Realm each semester, you don’t have to participate in the monthly exams, right?”
Everyone was taken aback.
Zheng Zhipeng, upon hearing this, laughed and said, “Yang Xiaotian, don’t tell me you’re saying your Tiger King Fist and Four Seasons Sword Technique have both reached the Great Accomplishment Realm?”
Cao Lu said to Yang Xiaotian, “Indeed, as long as your Tiger King Fist, Four
Seasons Sword Technique, and Sword Thirteen have all reached the Great Accomplishment Realm, you don’t need to attend the monthly exams this term.”
No sooner had Cao Lu finished speaking than Yang Xiaotian sprang up into the air like a fierce tiger. Without even making a move, an astonishing tiger’s might swept through Heaven and Earth, scaring Zheng Zhipeng into taking an alarmed step back.
Yang Xiaotian threw a punch from the air.
Instantly, the tiger’s roar filled the sky, and the roaring sound spread throughout the whole teaching building.
The students in the other classrooms of the teaching building were all taken aback.
Cao Lu’s expression changed. What is this?!
The Tiger King Fist of the Great Accomplishment Realm couldn’t possibly have such might.
Unless!
A staggering tiger-shaped fist energy current formed, tearing through heavy waves of qi with its spinning force.
When Yang Xiaotian landed, he switched from punching to clawing, striking the ground so hard that it trembled uncontrollably.
The whole teaching building shook incessantly.
The sound of the tiger’s roar was even more resounding through Heaven and Earth.
“This is the Tiger King Fist! Who is practicing the Tiger King Fist?! Such might, it must be the Perfection Realm!”
Teachers and students from the other classrooms in the teaching building exploded with disbelief.
Xie Chu from the defeated first class asked in astonishment, “It seems to be coming from class four. Could it be that Zheng Zhipeng has cultivated the Tiger King Fist to the Perfection Realm?!”
“Quick, let’s go take a look!”
The first-class teachers and students surged out.
Then, teachers and students from the other classes also flocked to class four.
Inside the classroom, Yang Xiaotian kept moving, sweeping his leg around so forcefully that the trash can in the corner scattered wildly.
When Xie Chu and the first-class teachers and students rushed to class four’s classroom, they saw Yang Xiaotian leap into the air and suddenly throw a punch towards the classroom entrance.
“Tiger Roars the Heavens and Earth!”
A massive tiger-shaped fist imprint hurtled towards Xie Chu and the others.
Feeling the unstoppable power of the tiger-shaped fist imprint, Xie Chu and the others’ faces changed dramatically.
Just when they were about to retreat in shock, the tiger-shaped fist imprint that had been hurtling towards them suddenly veered, turning back and striking towards the corner of the classroom.
Bang!
The just recently replaced trash can in the classroom was blown up again.
When the trash can landed, everyone saw that a shocking fist hole had appeared in its center.
However, the trash can didn’t burst.
Yang Xiaotian stopped.
In the classroom, the nine afterimages he left in mid-air gradually converged back onto Yang Xiaotian’s true body.
“Nine-Nine Unity, Summit Mastery!” Zheng Zhipeng, Xie Chu, and others watched Yang Xiaotian, their faces filled with shock.
Cao Lu was equally stunned.
Summit Mastery!
It’s actually Summit Mastery!
With the talent of the students of the Divine Sword Academy, it’s not surprising for them to cultivate the Tiger King Fist to the Great
Accomplishment Realm, but cultivating it to the Perfection Realm is extremely rare.
There may not even be one student in a session who can cultivate the Tiger King Fist to the Perfection Realm.
As for the realm of Summit Mastery, in the last ten sessions, only one person had successfully cultivated it.
That was Lin Yong’s direct disciple, Hu Xing!
At that moment, Yang Xiaotian, wielding a long sword, began to display the Four Seasons Sword Technique.
With one strike, the sword wind was as gentle as the spring breeze, and as it passed, everyone felt warm all over.
Then, Yang Xiaotian struck again.
The sword wind suddenly became unbearably hot, making everyone feel as though they were in the scorching summer.
When Yang Xiaotian released the third strike.
Suddenly, the sword wind turned autumnal, as if entering deep autumn.
Just as Yang Xiaotian was displaying the Four Seasons Sword Technique, Lin Yong was in his courtyard giving pointers to Hu Xing on his swordsmanship practice.
Hu Xing was practicing his sword fiercely when he suddenly heard a commotion outside the courtyard. Puzzled, he went out to take a look and saw a large group of students rushing towards the lower grades’ teaching building.
He stopped one of them and asked what was happening.
“Today is the monthly test, and I heard that first-year Yang Xiaotian has cultivated the Tiger King Fist to the realm of Summit Mastery!”
“Everyone’s heading over to watch now!”
The student he stopped was excited beyond measure.
Hu Xing and Lin Yong were dumbstruck, and Hu Xing stuttered, “What did you say? Yang Xiaotian has cultivated the Tiger King Fist to the realm of Summit Mastery? Are you sure it’s Yang Xiaotian?”
“I suppose so,” the student replied.
“Master, they must have heard wrong!” Hu Xing shook his head and said, “It can’t be Yang Xiaotian! And definitely not to the level of Summit Mastery!”
He hadn’t finished speaking when he saw Lin Yong already hurrying towards the first-year teaching building.
Hu Xing quickly followed.
He absolutely refused to believe that Yang Xiaotian could cultivate the Tiger King Fist to the Summit Mastery!
When Hu Xing rushed to the teaching building, he saw Chen Yuan leading Cheng Beibei, with Yang Zhong arriving from another direction as well; clearly, they had also received the news.
Upon hearing the news, Cheng Beibei and Yang Zhong were exceptionally shocked. They were even more incredulous that Yang Xiaotian could have cultivated the Tiger King Fist to the realm of Summit Mastery.
When Lin Yong, Hu Xing, Chen Yuan, Cheng Beibei, and Yang Zhong arrived, they found Class Four’s classroom completely surrounded and impenetrable.
Everyone was utterly silent.
Seeing Lin Yong, Hu Xing, Chen Yuan, and the others arrive, the crowd quickly made way.
The moment Lin Yong, Hu Xing, and Chen Yuan stepped into Class Four’s classroom, they felt an astonishing chill, as if entering a millennia-old ice cave.
They looked in amazement and saw Yang Xiaotian holding his long sword, and as he swung it, snowflakes began to fall from the classroom’s ceiling!
“Cold frost sprinkling!”
This was the last move of the Four Seasons Sword Technique, and the strongest strike.
“Drawing upon the Qi of Heaven and Earth, Summit Mastery!” Chen Yuan’s whole body trembled.
The Four Seasons Sword Technique, when brought to the level of Summit Mastery, could draw upon the Qi of Heaven and Earth. It was precisely by invoking the Qi of Heaven and Earth that Yang Xiaotian’s sword technique could cause snow to fall.
Lin Yong was equally stunned as Chen Yuan. In ten years, only his disciple had cultivated the Tiger King Fist to the realm of Summit Mastery. However, in those years, no student had managed to cultivate the Four Seasons Sword Technique to Summit Mastery!
To cultivate a martial skill to the realm of Summit Mastery meant to be the Son of Martial Dao!
It signified a child born for the Martial Dao!
To cultivate a martial skill to the Perfection Realm required extremely high Martial Dao Talent, but only a Son of Martial Dao could cultivate a martial skill to the realm of Summit Mastery!
