The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1358 - 1356: The Day of Accepting Disciples!

Chapter 1358: Chapter 1356: The Day of Accepting Disciples!

Xue Qing said so much to Lin Bai about the list after the disciple recruitment, giving Lin Bai a preliminary understanding of this list!

In fact, it was straightforward to comprehend!

That is, all the powers on the Lingnan Continent, the Seventy-two Dynasties, the Seven Major Sects, Tianbao Tower, and Purple Gold City, had banded together to rank the martial artists participating in the recruitment into two genius levels based on the strength they displayed!

The first genius level was the Genius Level!

Martial artists at the Genius Level proved they were indeed extraordinary, possessing one in a thousand talent.

The second genius level was the Young Master Level!

Martial artists at the Young Master Level indicated that these individuals far surpassed ordinary people, possessing one in ten thousand peerless talent, which was a level higher than the Genius Level!

But how to determine whether a martial artist’s talent belonged to the Genius Level or the Young Master Level?

The Seventy-two Dynasties and Purple Gold City, along with Tianbao Tower and the Seven Major Sects, had formed a special observation team to watch the martial arts sparring of Lingnan martial artists in the Night Crow Mountain Range.

They would judge based on all aspects such as Martial Soul, talent, cultivation, Realm of Comprehension, age, and so forth, depending on the performance of all martial artists in the Night Crow Mountain Range!

"I wonder what my final assessment will be?"

"Genius Level or Young Master Level?"

Lin Bai stood by the window, watching the bustling crowd inside Purple Gold City.

"Purple Gold City is bustling more and more. These last few days, nearly hundreds of thousands of martial artists have poured in. I still remember what Xue Qing mentioned earlier, the current room rate at Tianbao Inn is one million spiritual stones per day, which will rise to tens of millions a day just before the martial arts competition. He really didn’t lie to me."

Lin Bai smiled faintly.

Having come to Purple Gold City for just half a month, Lin Bai had grown accustomed to standing by the window, watching the bustling scene below.

"All under heaven hustles and bustles, all for the sake of gain!"

"The ancients really weren’t wrong."

Lin Bai smiled faintly, "How many martial artists in this Purple Gold City have endured years of arduous training for this peak gathering of the younger generation?"

"How many have desperately cultivated for the sake of that so-called Genius and Young Master ranking?"

"Ten years of obscurity no one asks, but once famous, all under heaven are shocked!"

"This so-called sudden fame and shock under heaven must be referring to this Purple Gold City’s Disciple Recruitment Conference!"

Lin Bai smiled slightly, and his hand unconsciously pulled out a flask of wine. Watching people come and go in Purple Gold City, Lin Bai began to drink alone.

But as Lin Bai looked at the martial artists inside Purple Gold City, he suddenly felt an insight in his heart. His Realm of Comprehension actually began to loosen slightly!

"Stormy Ambience..." Lin Bai felt perplexed, suddenly sentimental, as his realm of the Stormy Ambience loosened a bit, vaguely showing signs of a breakthrough into the middle stage.

But this opportunity flashed by, and Lin Bai failed to seize it.

Lin Bai pondered deeply again for a long time, but ultimately he was unable to grasp that fleeting breakthrough opportunity again!

This is the most challenging aspect of cultivating the Realm of Comprehension. Breaking through the realm requires martial artists to comprehend the universe, to comprehend the world, but often it is a flash of inspiration in the mind; if seized, one can break through, if missed, one can only wait for the next opportunity.

And when will the next opportunity come? Will it be ten years later? Or a hundred years later? No one can say for certain!

Thus, many strong ones in the Yin Saint Realm and Yangshen Realm are still merely at the early stages of their Realm of Comprehension cultivation.

Some martial artists even seclude themselves for a hundred years to seize an opportunity, but ultimately still end up empty-handed!

Cultivating the Realm of Comprehension is far more difficult than cultivating the Martial Art!

Cultivating an ordinary Realm of Comprehension is already hard enough,

and cultivating special Realms of Comprehension is even more challenging.

Particularly, cultivating Zhang Jianxing’s Destruction Realm, which is known as that of a Destroyer, was as difficult as Ascending to Heaven.

As Ni Xiangen said, although the Destruction Realm is powerful, throughout ancient and modern times on the Barbaric Ancient Continent, there have only been barely fifty Destroyers!

What a terrifying number this is, for on the Barbaric Ancient Continent, Martial Art has been passed down to the point where it can no longer be recorded in years.

In such a long span of time, the cultivators of the Destruction Realm amounted only to fifty, which is astounding and rare.

It is precisely because training in the Destruction Realm is rare that there are no masters to instruct, no seniors’ experiences to learn from, making the cultivation of the Destruction Realm even more difficult.

Thus, when Zhang Jianxing heard that the Successor of the Demonic Sword had appeared in Purple Gold City, he immediately rushed over, his purpose being to battle with Lin Bai!

In the sparring of Martial Art and Sword Art, he sought the true essence of the Destruction Realm, seeking a breakthrough!

Because Zhang Jianxing felt that today, in the Territory of all nations, only this Possessor of the Demonic Sword was qualified to fight with him!

Both inheritors of one of the five famed swords, Zhang Jianxing and Dongfang Bai were both very aware that a Warrior chosen by the five famed swords must undoubtedly be a dragon amongst men, a peak genius far surpassing his peers.

Lin Bai stood at the window looking out for a long time; he then returned to his room, closed the window and door, sat cross-legged, took out the Demonic Sword, placed it on his knees, and started to practice the techniques of the Nameless Sword Skill.

Nameless Sword Skill, Demons and Monsters Emerge from the Ghost Domain, Netherworld Ghost Rain, the Blood Sea Drifting, Wind and Waves End, asking myself if I am truly a sword immortal!

Within these seven techniques of the sword skill, Lin Bai had already mastered the first four.

He himself had named these techniques.

As they were comprehended from these twenty-eight characters, Lin Bai used these twenty-eight characters as their names.

First technique: Demons and Monsters!

Second technique: Sword Shadow of the Ghost Domain!

Third technique: Netherworld Ghost Rain!

Fourth technique: Blood Fills the Sky!

Lin Bai had already mastered these first four techniques, while he could perform the latter three techniques, he was unsure of their power.

Time passed swiftly!

As Lin Bai immersed himself in the cultivation of the Nameless Sword Skill, the day of the Disciple Recruitment Conference was fast approaching.

Over the past few days, Xue Qing wanted to come by to chat with Lin Bai, but upon discovering that Lin Bai was deep in sword practice, he did not disturb him.

In the blink of an eye, the day of the Disciple Recruitment Conference arrived!

That morning, Xue Qing went to Lin Bai’s room and waited for a long time, looking anxious as he glanced at the outside sky, he finally knocked on the door.

"Dongfang Brother, are you still deeply involved in your sword practice?"

After Xue Qing gently knocked, he asked quietly, afraid of disturbing Lin Bai.

Hearing the knock, Lin Bai put away his sword posture, came to the door, opened it, and asked, "What is it?"

Xue Qing said, "Dongfang Brother, today is the day of the Disciple Recruitment Conference. The Warriors from Tianbao Inn have all gone to the Central Square, and seeing you have not come down for a long time, I thought perhaps you forgot the time due to cultivation, so I came to call you!"

Lin Bai suddenly realized, "Haha, thanks Xue Qing. Allow me to wash up, and then let us head to the Central Square."

Xue Qing nodded lightly.

Then, Lin Bai took some time to wash up, and he went with Xue Qing to the Central Square.

As they left the Tianbao Inn, Lin Bai realized that by this time the normally noisy first floor was already empty, and even the usually crowded streets of Purple Gold City were now completely desolate.

Undoubtedly, they had all gone to the Central Square!

Today was the once-in-five-years Disciple Recruitment Conference of the Lingnan Continent.
