Chapter 212: Chapter 156: Pine Mountain Sword, Clear Moon Sword_2

Elder Shi watched intently, and soon, Sui Yi’s figure suddenly drifted, her foot stepping into the air as she floated up to an osmanthus tree over two meters tall. The trunk was slender and could not support weight, yet she moved as if weightless. She then leapt from the top of the osmanthus tree, soaring through the air and dancing with her sword midair.

The first sword, its light like a crescent moon!

The second sword, the crescent sweeps through the cold stars!

The third sword, cold stars dot the drunken moon!

The first sword was dazzling!

A moment later, after a brief breath, the sword dancer drifted down, landing on a fork in the tree, from which the sword sheath bounced up, hooked by the tip of the sword, and landed on the ground along with her.

But the very instant she landed!

Clang!

Elder Shi’s sword was drawn!

Pine Mountain Sword!

For someone like Elder Shi, naturally, the upright and unyielding Pine Mountain Sword Technique was more suitable!

Even his sword was named Pine Mountain Sword.

The sword, sudden and unexpected, its tip not aiming at Sui Yi, but at the sword sheath that was about to land beside her.

Sui Yi sidestepped, her wrist twisting, the sword lifting up!

Clang!

The tip of her sword struck the tip of Pine Mountain Sword!

The sword is a union of strength and technique.

It is also a struggle between strength and technique!

Inner Strength surged to the tip of the sword, and then...

Swish!

The sword techniques clashed!

In the blink of an eye, the two had fought three swords, Clear Moon Sword Technique versus Pine Mountain Sword Technique, in this osmanthus forest filled with the yellow glow of falling leaves and the blink of green vitality, Sui Yi and Elder Tang commenced their duel.

They were not fighting with swords, but for the sword sheath!

One was upright, the other ethereal, two different paths, along with their Inner Strength growing stronger and stronger...

Seven swords, fifteen swords!

Hmph!

The sixteenth sword!

Sui Yi spun on her feet, her figure suddenly as swift as lightning, her sword buzzing sharply like a frozen moon!

And she was upon him in an instant!

Elder Shi’s eyes flashed, his hand trembled for a moment, nearly unable to hold the buzzing and trembling sword.

A backhand stroke and diagonal thrust, but he found...

The sword sheath was hooked by the tip of Sui Yi’s sword.

Then, swish!

The Green Steel Sword was sheathed.

Sui Yi stood in place, bowed to him with her fists clasped, "Thank you, Elder Shi, for your instruction. I have benefited greatly."

Elder Shi’s expression was very odd, his eyes unpredictable, and after a long while, he let out a helpless sigh, "You, you... are just too serious, not like a young person. Of course, your sword is also not like a young person’s..."

Although in terms of Sword Dao mastery and Inner Strength, he was somewhat stronger, Sui Yi’s sword was terrifying.

In terms of skill, far beyond his imagination.

And when she held the sword, her aura and demeanor were truly intimidating, as if a Sword Dao grandmaster had appeared before him in the flesh.

Of course, this demeanor seemed to be oddly overshadowed...

He had only perceived some of it through his daily observations and the probing today...

Having learned swordsmanship for just over a month, why was she so terrifying.

What a mysterious young lady.

"Alright, I’ve taught you all I can. You needn’t come anymore..."

He paused, then Elder Shi laughed, "Of course, I won’t be refunding the tuition for the semester!"

Elder Shi, being who he was, naturally wouldn’t care about that bit of money.

Nevertheless, as Sui Yi placed the Green Steel Sword back on the weapon rack, Elder Shi added, "The Green Steel Sword is an ordinary sword, not worthy of you. I have some fine swords, come with me to pick one as a gift from me."

Although not truly teacher and student, Elder Shi held a sincere sense of affection for Sui Yi.

Upon hearing this, Sui Yi adjusted the position of the Green Steel Sword, but only gave a slight smile, "The sword that suits me best, I already have. I have no need for other swords."

Elder Shi was surprised.

But he didn’t insist.

Sui Yi nodded to him, then turned and left.

As she walked away, her gaze swept over the group hiding by the doorway, peeking in, each standing still as if petrified.

Ah A was among them, ultimately only able to watch Sui Yi leave with a complex expression.

In one month, she had already grasped the swordsmanship they could hardly learn.

Such talent was too terrifying.

————————

Back at her own home, Sui Yi picked up the Demon Que, her palm grasping the hilt of the sword, and for over a month, this sword gave her an ever more mysterious feeling.

Because it entered her dreams night after night.

This was very strange.

"Perhaps you and I are fated in some way, but it seems that for now you are still unwilling to acknowledge me," Sui Yi sighed deeply, laying down the sword.

————————

Sui Yi was assigned not to Second High School, but to No.1 High School.

Nanxun was neither large nor small, with a total of three regular high schools, commonly referred to as No.1 High School, Second High School, and Third High School. There were also two vocational high schools. The regular and vocational high schools are clearly distinguished on normal days, but the college entrance exams are held for all high schools, with every senior student having the right to participate. The same goes for the mock exam. So just in Nanxun, five high schools are participating in this examination. (I’m not very clear on the nuances, but they are all students, so let’s not differentiate too much).

Of course, the vocational schools were not used as examination sites, instead, students from all five schools were concentrated in the three regular high schools. Students in the first and second years were temporarily given holidays, so naturally, there was enough space for the examination sites.

Thus, this day was a special privilege for all senior students in Nanxun—

—Only they had to come to school to take the exams!

Furthermore, those rowdy juniors, before being given holidays, even specifically formed groups to come thank the seniors—sisters and brothers, thanks for your hard work, we wish you all the best tomorrow, hoping for the same each year...

Oh brother!

The surging resentment of seniors spread throughout Nanxun.

——————

Having been to No.1 High School once, Sui Yi was not unfamiliar with it. She cycled there early in the morning after breakfast, but upon arriving at the entrance, she was somewhat taken aback.

Uh, why so many parents?

Many parents blocked the school gate, holding onto their children, taller than themselves, offering last-minute advice with an anxious atmosphere that rivalled the actual college entrance exam.

Of course, most were mothers. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote, or offer your monthly support. Your encouragement is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
