Chapter 285: Chapter 73: What Champion Are You? [Seeking Monthly Pass!]_1

Shu Mountain’s Divine Sword Peak was likened to a tall, pitch-black steel rod with winding mountain tracks layering its sides. This race’s Yun Route Track would be prepared along the curved outline of these mountain paths, making up to eighteen twists and turns.

Unlike the simple curves earlier, this part was the most challenging part of the whole track!

Whoosh ——

Chu Liang’s Dustless Sword dashed in, with the other contestants waiting to see his mistake.

Because, if one were to use sword drifting through the eighteen twists and turns, it would be impossible to control it after several times, resulting in the sword being flung out of control! In past flying sword competitions, many experts had been thrown off at this part of the track!

If it was continuous full-speed drifting, generally, the most that an expert could go through would be three to five turns before failing. Even top experts couldn’t possibly go beyond ten turns. Drifting through eighteen turns without reducing speed was something only the Sword God of Luoyan Peak could do back in the day!

Whoosh——

In a blink of an eye, Chu Liang had already drifted through the third turn, without slowing down at all!

The contestants behind chose to slow down to maintain stability. This allowed Chu Liang’s leading advantage to widen dramatically.

But nobody worried about him.

Because the faster he flew, the further he would be thrown off!

Everyone was waiting to see at which turn he would be thrown off!

The sword light moved faster than thought. In the time it took for all these complex thoughts to pass through people’s minds, the Dustless Sword had already flown past ten turns!

Incredibly strong...

Many people were surprised at this fact.

Soon, this surprise was amplified as Chu Liang drifted through the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth turns...

Whoa!

That’s enough!

People started to shout in their hearts.

However, Chu Liang didn’t fail but continued to drift at full speed, passing the sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth turns...

Boom——

His flying sword finally flew off the track after the eighteenth turn, while people hadn’t even had time to cheer, they realized something was wrong.

Eighteen turns...

There were only eighteen turns in total!

He had completed the drifting of the flying sword without slowing down!

Chu Liang did something that only the Sword God of Luoyan Peak had done before! Did they just inadvertently witness history again?

At this moment, nobody doubted Chu Liang’s participation in the Flying Sword competition anymore. Everyone’s minds were filled with shock, even their own ranks didn’t matter that much.

Whoosh——

After the eighteenth turn, there was a long straight road. Chu Liang’s True Qi was at its peak as he dashed towards the end of Yun Route Track. He reached Biluo Peak’s track in the blink of an eye.

A heavy rain of Sword Qi fell down!

This Sword Qi was just meant to bother the high-speed sword handler, it naturally wasn’t too strong. Chu Liang simply didn’t blink, and rushed through it!

Because he was moving too fast, even though the rain of Sword Qi was falling heavily, only two strands hit Chu Liang while crossing this twist. Except for a tear in the corner of his clothes, it didn’t harm him at all.

Chu Liang’s physical body merely showed a white mark when facing this level of scratch.

Boom——

The final track turned to the base of Tontian Peak, followed by a heavenward dash, which was always the most thrilling climbing race each year!

The audience could watch from above, seeing the contestants rushing upwards, watching the Sword Aura streaking past their eyes, soaring to the sky!

Unfortunately, there was no scene of you chasing me this time.

Boom——

Chu Liang’s Dustless Sword thundered past the cliff! Rising to the sky!

"He——" Chu Liang let out a long cry!

After such a thrilling ride on the flying sword, the immense joy brought about by the high speed made his heart beat violently! When he soared into the sky, he couldn’t help shouting out loud.

But he still restrained himself.

He withdrew his sword and turned around to look down, only to suddenly become shocked.

"Huh?" Chu Liang seemed a bit surprised, because when he was focusing on flying his sword, he hadn’t paid much attention to others. Even though he might have guessed he would win due to his smooth performance, he hadn’t realized he was so far ahead.

"I’m already halfway up the mountain, why are they still at the foot of the mountain?"

...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh——

Sword aura whizzed through the sky, each one shooting to the heavens before the audience’s eyes. However, this ceremonial scene didn’t excite most of the competitors.

That’s because a handsome young man had charged past them moments earlier.

Just as Chu Liang had landed, he suddenly heard a voice from behind. It was Chen Zheng whom he had met before.

Without him, Chu Liang wouldn’t have learned the technique of Flying Sword Drifting. So, he returned the greeting with a smile, "Senior Brother Chen, what can I do for you?"

Chen Zheng was clearly older than him, so it was fitting to refer to him as Senior Brother.

Looking at Chen Zheng’s disbelief-filled eyes, who managed to overlook his exhaustion from the recent competition, he stepped forward and asked, "You were unable to perform Flying Sword Drifting during the last group match, but now you are so skillful at it... you’ve truly mastered it, how did you do it?"

Chu Liang chuckled, "Well, I just practiced a few times."

"A few times?!" Chen Zheng was shocked.

The fact was, Chu Liang’s skill at Flying Sword Drifting might not necessarily be more superior than their top competitors. However, due to his high cultivation level, powerful True Qi, and strong Divine Thoughts, the same technique wielded by him would definitely be more formidable.

Yet, they spent their entire lives practicing this skill, they trained with flying sword racing since childhood. Compared to them, Chu Liang’s training could be considered very unorthodox.

And he only needed a few practices?

In reality, Chu Liang wasn’t lying. He had done some practice before and roughly knew the trick to Flying Sword Drifting, but hadn’t practiced it thoroughly. After two tries on stage, he finally grasped the key elements and began his flawless Flying Sword Drifting routine.

Seeing Chen Zheng’s shock and disbelief, Chu Liang thought he was questioning his claim, so he reminisced a little and murmured, "Perhaps it was three times..."

"But, if I really consider it, those first three turns during the race could be considered practice too. I only grasped the key elements after those turns. So, if that counts, then it is around six times... Huh? Senior Brother Chen! What’s wrong with you?"

Turns out, in the midst of their conversation, Chen Zheng suddenly collapsed and fainted.

It’s uncertain whether he was overly exhausted from the competition, or the revelation was too much for him to handle...

...

Zhang Xiaohan had only arrived at Shu Mountain today. As a disciple of the Wind Catcher Hall in Tianshu Pavilion, she was always busy with various tasks. She usually had to visit places where significant news had occurred to see if there were any stories worth publishing.

Originally, she didn’t plan on attending the Shu Mountain Peak Conference but wanted to visit the top performers after the event was over.

However, upon receiving news from the event that this year’s competition seemed particularly dramatic and compelling, it sparked her concern. If she waited for the conference to end, would all the prime interview opportunities be snatched up by her peers?

Therefore, she hurriedly made her way to Shu Mountain. Relying on her familiarity with Chu Liang, she directly went to Silver Sword Peak.

The reason for picking this location was due to Silver Sword Peak being the biggest dark horse at this year’s Shu Mountain Peak Conference. Silver Sword Peak only had one disciple, and before the event, no one expected it almost swept all the recreational competitions, nearly achieving full-member championships!

And Chu Liang still stood a chance in the race for the title of Chief Disciple!

When Zhang Xiaohan arrived, Chu Liang and Liu Xiaoyu had just returned. They were slightly surprised to see this double ponytailed girl.

"Ms. Xiaohan," Chu Liang smiled. This woman was also an acquaintance. "The conference isn’t over yet, why have you come to Silver Sword Peak?"

"Haha, I’m afraid that by the time the conference ends, you’ll already be snatched up by others." Zhang Xiaohan also laughed, "I heard that almost everyone in Silver Sword Peak is a champion. I wanted to investigate this matter. Would it be okay to spare a moment of your time?"

"Of course, welcome." Chu Liang greeted her warmly.

"Warrior Chu, you’ve just become the champion of the Sword Flying Race..." Zhang Xiaohan began, "and this young lady is?"

"This is Liu Xiaoyu, also a member of Silver Sword Peak and is the champion of the Mahjong Competition," Chu Liang replied.

Although Silver Sword Peak only had one disciple, there were other members as well, which was something Zhang Xiaohan had heard of prior to her arrival.

Then he pointed to the big head lazily lying down, "That’s the Golden Fur Beast, who just won the Spirit Beast Fighting Competition."

Liu Xiaoyu and the Golden Fur Beast’s championship victories were much more indisputable than Chu Liang’s.

There were other spirit beasts at the Sixth Realm on Shu Mountain, but those were generally the mounts of great powers, who would not participate in a Spirit Beast Fighting Competition. Of all the participants, Golden Fur Beast was the only one at the Sixth Realm. The entire competition had almost no competition for it. Later, Chu Liang didn’t even bother to look at it because it was always victorious.

It was like bullying the weak.

"Hey? What are you guys doing here?" Empress Feng came over carelessly. She had just rushed back from Tontian Peak, and seeing everyone gather around, she decided to join in the fun, "This little girl is so cute, where is she from?"

Zhang Xiaohan didn’t know Empress Feng. Looking at her lazy but beautiful appearance and hearing her compliment, she smiled and asked, "Is this beautiful sister also a member of Silver Sword Peak?"

"What champion are you?"
