Legend of Swordsman-Chapter 6122 - : You Don’t Understand!
Chapter 6122: You Don’t Understand!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the second round, if one was not careful, it was very likely that two would be directly eliminated.
Ji Ye was Luo’s disciple and also used a sword.
Moreover, her swordsmanship had already reached the fifth layer, at the edge of the Dao Merge. If it weren’t for participating in the Dao Assembly, she could have completely unified with the Dao.
“Ji Tang, you have the blood of the Ji family in you. Even if you don’t acknowledge it, you can’t change it!”
Over the years, people from the Ji family had also sought out Ji Tang.
Jian Wushuang did not intervene, but Ji Tang did not waver in her Dao Heart.
If her master had not taken her away from the Ji family back then, she wouldn’t have lived long, let alone achieved what she had today.
Everything she had now was unrelated to the Ji family.
If there was any connection, it was hatred.
Her mother had died in the Ji family.
This debt would be settled sooner or later.
The Ji family did not know about this relationship and thought that Ji Tang looked down on the Ji family after she had attached herself to Jian Wushuang.
So they kept trying to win her over.
“You will never understand the enmity between me and the Ji family!”
An era’s time had allowed Ji Tang to grow a lot.
She was not a lunatic buried in hatred.
She could distinguish who was an enemy and who was innocent.
Ji Ye was of the same clan as her, but there was no affection or enmity between them.
There was no need to argue with a clan’s favored young master about how the Ji family was.
What she needed to do was defeat her opponent and bring honor to her sect.
That was enough.
Clang!
A cold gleam flashed, and the sword light was sharp and domineering.
With the first strike, she unleashed the Star Lake Sword Intent.
A massive lake spread out from the sword’s shadow, enveloping Ji Ye completely.
“I don’t understand your enmity with the Ji family, but can I not understand swordsmanship?”
Ji Ye’s sword broke through the enemy, and his Luoshui Sword Intent had also reached a high level.
With just a few strikes, he broke the Star Lake Sword Intent.
For him, this was far from enough.
On the platform, the duel between the two Ji family prodigies drew exclamations from the Universe Masters watching.
They all envied that the Ji family had produced three direct disciples.
The future prospects were limitless.
They were definitely not ordinary individuals.
This battle was actually a loss for the Ji family.
Because both Ji Ye and Ji Tang’s strength were enough to enter the top twenty.
Now, however, they had to determine a winner.
Besides Ji Tang, Shen Jian was also in a deadlock.
Wan Shan had already finished his match.
Although the opponent’s direct disciple was not very powerful, having strength at the threshold of the pinnacle, he was still far inferior to Wan Shan.
Wan Shan, using the Ancient Transformation technique, had already reached pinnacle combat strength.
He easily crushed his opponent, displaying the same dominance he had in the trials.
All 25 matches had concluded.
Only Shen Jian and Ji Tang were still struggling on the platform.
Currently, neither of them was in a good state.
Ji Tang was being severely suppressed by Ji Ye, and Shen Jian was not faring any better.
But just at the moment of determining the winner, a vast ocean descended from the sky.
“Star Sea Sword Intent!”
Both of them unleashed it simultaneously.
With just one strike, they turned the tide of the battle.
“Shen Jian, wins!”
“Ji Tang, wins!”
Many people did not react. Clearly, they were about to lose, yet they made a comeback.
Ji Ye was even more unable to accept it; she couldn’t accept losing to a girl from the Jian family who had been wandering outside.
Clearly about to win, she was defeated by a single sword strike.
“I… actually lost!” Ji Ye took half a step back, standing under the arena, unable to calm down for a long time.
Jian Tang sheathed her sword and slowly walked to the edge of the arena, speaking with a determined tone, “You don’t understand grievances, nor do you understand the way of the sword!”
After leaving this remark, she left straight away and walked into the group of winners.
Not understanding grievances was normal, just like how Ji Ye didn’t understand why Jian Tang didn’t return to the family. She hadn’t experienced the suffering of others yet demanded that they be the same as her.
It was indeed somewhat ridiculous.
Not understanding the way of the sword was even more evident.
The sword intent just now had reached the pinnacle of supreme combat power.
That sword move was by no means comparable to Star Lake.
No matter how many lakes there were, they couldn’t converge into a sea.
Even the smallest sea was still a sea.
The Star River Lake Sea!
Once thoroughly understood, one would be an invincible Emperor.
No longer comparable to a Dao Lord.
Seeing his two disciples breaking through one after another and winning the competition, Jian Wushuang felt very gratified.
He didn’t say anything, just nodded.
This was enough for the disciples to feel the true intent.
Wan Shan’s performance was also good, but the divine power route was not so complicated, nor did it have the possibility of such a comeback.
Everything was a gradual performance.
“The third-round draw, now begins!”
Finally, it was time for the third round of the competition.
This time, the top ten would be decided.
A bye meant direct entry into the top ten.
Among the 12 winners, there would be an additional match to determine 2 losers.
Now only 25 people were left.
In the spectator stands, someone had already closed their eyes.
Wu Tian closed his eyes.
His disciple hadn’t even made it into the top 25.
As for Wanyan, he was the same.
Of the disciples who entered the top hundred, only one remained, and in the second round, he drew Wan Shan.
He was unlucky.
Some were disappointed, while others were happy.
Gu Qianluo’s only remaining disciple, “Duobao Daoist,” drew a bye, lying down to enter the top ten, becoming the first trialist to enter the top ten in this Dao Assembly.
“Luck!”
Gu Qianluo laughed proudly, “Zhen Ling said it right, luck is also a part of strength. My disciple’s strength doesn’t even rank in the top ten among peers, yet he made it through the first two rounds and drew a bye!”
“Hmph, this is an internal competition. If it were an external fight, he would have fallen long ago. Don’t be so smug!”
Several Universe Masters at the Seventh Tribulation stage, who had lost hope, looked very embarrassed at this time.
Gu Qianluo, however, deliberately showed off at this moment, naturally inciting everyone’s attack.
“Jealousy, you’re all jealous of me!”
Zhen Ling coughed and paused before saying, “Enough talking, the third round begins now. The top 10 will be decided soon!”
Among the current 24 Dao Lords, Jian Wushuang alone accounted for three.
Wu Zuo also accounted for three.
Hu Qing had one, who was the Golden Body Arhat.
Shang had only one left.
Luo was the same.
The rest were either completely wiped out or had only one left.
This battle was decisive.
All were personally directing their disciples, pointing out their opponents’ weaknesses.
Once they lost, their future days would be difficult.
Now, the resources in the lower-level time-space had all been developed.
To make up for the deficits of Qishen Temple, they needed to fight in the mid-level spacetimes or upper-level spacetimes against peers.
Many understood Jian Wushuang’s intention.
Those suitable for teaching disciples could stay and teach.
Those who were not suitable would go out and explore.
They needed to leave their comfort zone.
Now Qishen Temple was constantly expanding and needed to let off some steam.
They needed to send a group of strong people to the mid-level or upper-level spacetimes.
They needed to establish Qishen Temple’s reputation in advance.
Otherwise, when the barrier disappeared, Qishen Temple’s overall strength would still be insufficient.
At that time, Jian Wushuang would have to step in again.
