The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1527 - 1524: A Casual Point

Chapter 1527: Chapter 1524: A Casual Point

Fang Jin was the first to pass the assessment.

When Fang Jin passed the assessment, many warriors began to say, "Turns out this warrior named Fang Jin has found the flaw in Gao Rui’s swordsmanship, which is Gao Rui’s abdomen!"

"Ha ha, I’ve got it now."

"Let me give it a try."

Immediately, another warrior stepped forward.

Gao Rui, still seething with residual anger, saw that this warrior was the one who had just made the insolent remarks. Gao Rui’s sword light flashed instantly, aiming straight for the warrior’s face.

The warrior sneered coldly, striking towards Gao Rui’s abdomen with a palm.

"Damn it!" Gao Rui cried out in frustration and hurriedly drew back his sword to knock the warrior’s palm away!

The warrior laughed and said, "Ha ha, I passed, right?"

Housekeeper Zhuo Yi nodded and said, "You’ve passed. Please wait to the side."

The warrior smirked triumphantly, staring at Gao Rui and saying, "Humph, with such little strength you still dream of challenging the Five Junior Sword Masters of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect? Even we can easily find the flaw in your swordsmanship; what else is there to say?"

The warrior sneered coldly, and without giving Gao Rui a chance to respond, he walked straight over to Fang Jin’s side.

Fang Jin chatted briefly with the warrior, then turned his gaze towards Lin Bai.

Lin Bai stood in the crowd, in no rush to step up.

It was not that Lin Bai did not want to step up, but simply that it was not his turn. As Fang Jin and the warrior pointed out the flaw in Gao Rui’s swordsmanship, other warriors flocked to the challenge as if they had seen the light.

In a moment, more than ten warriors, even less powerful than Gao Rui, indeed managed to take a strike from Gao Rui’s sword by taking advantage of the flaw!

"Damn it! Damn it!" Gao Rui roared furiously, knowing well that those ten plus warriors who had taken his strike were definitely inferior to him in strength, yet they had managed to withstand a blow from him by leveraging that flaw.

However, after fifteen warriors successively passed the assessment by exploiting the flaw, Gao Rui quickly adapted, and starting from the sixteenth warrior to challenge him, Gao Rui’s swordsmanship began to change.

Boom—

A loud crash echoed as the sixteenth warrior was flung away by Gao Rui’s sword; the flaw no longer proved to be effective.

"Hmph, even when a tiger dozes, you think you can pluck its teeth? Overestimating yourselves!" Gao Rui sneered coldly as he sent the warrior flying with his sword.

On the contrary, Gao Rui looked at the ten plus warriors who had just passed with a provocative glance in his eyes, firmly believing that if they were to clash again, they would definitely not be able to withstand his strike!

As Gao Rui changed his sword moves, few people were able to pass the assessment afterward.

The assessment lasted for a little over an hour, successively recruiting nearly ninety warriors, with only the last ten warriors left.

At this point, Fang Jin looked anxiously at Lin Bai and called out in a soft voice, "Brother Dongfang, Brother Dongfang, what are you still waiting for?"

Lin Bai smiled lightly and said, "Alright, I understand."

As he spoke, Lin Bai stepped forward, looked at Gao Rui, and said, "Let me have the pleasure of experiencing your swordsmanship."

Gao Rui looked up, sneering contemptuously at Lin Bai, and upon seeing Lin Bai’s cultivation level, he scoffed disdainfully, "A mere warrior at the Ninth Level of the Yin Saint Realm dares to challenge me?"

"Get lost, you’re not even worthy of my drawing the sword!"

Gao Rui shouted coldly.

Housekeeper Zhuo Yi frowned at this moment and spoke indifferently, "Young brother, our journey is extremely dangerous, we need strong ones, at least those who possess the Perfect Yin Saint Realm cultivation."

"Yet you are only at the Ninth Level of the Yin Saint Realm, I fear your strength is slightly weaker, not quite suitable to travel with us."

When Housekeeper Zhuo Yi spoke, his tone was somewhat more tactful, not as direct as Gao Rui in stating that Lin Bai wasn’t even worthy of his drawing the sword.

Lin Bai smiled faintly and said, "Housekeeper Zhuo Yi, but you didn’t mention there was a restriction on cultivation state just now, the requirement you put forward was simply that anyone who could withstand a sword strike from Gao Rui could join the team."

"Isn’t that so?"

Housekeeper Zhuo Yi chuckled lightly: "Indeed it was said so, but I don’t think your cultivation at the Ninth Level of the Yin Saint Realm could withstand Gao Rui’s sword strike!"

Lin Bai smiled lightly, "He hasn’t even made a move yet, how would you know if I can’t withstand a single sword strike from him?"

Housekeeper Zhuo Yi was taken aback, seeing Lin Bai so resolute, he could only force a bitter smile and said, "Alright then, give it a try. If you truly can withstand it, then we’ll talk."

"Gao Rui."

Housekeeper Zhuo Yi looked towards Gao Rui.

Gao Rui said with an angry face, "Housekeeper Zhuo Yi? Does a Warrior at the Ninth Level of the Yin Saint Realm still need me to make a move? Not to mention drawing the sword, I could easily kill him with just a puff of breath!"

Zhuo Yi knew it was extremely difficult for someone with cultivation at the Ninth Level of the Yin Saint Realm to withstand a sword strike from a Core Disciple of the True Martial Sword Sect, but Lin Bai was firm, so Zhuo Yi found it improper to directly dismiss him with cold words.

Seeing Housekeeper Zhuo Yi hesitating, Fang Jin immediately said, "Housekeeper Zhuo Yi, just give Brother Dongfang an opportunity. It was he who pinpointed the flaw in Gao Rui’s Sword Skill just a moment ago; otherwise, I might not have passed the challenge so easily."

When Housekeeper Zhuo Yi heard this, he was taken aback by the realization that it was this Warrior at the Ninth Level of the Yin Saint Realm who had identified the flaw in Gao Rui’s Sword Skill, eliciting surprise from him.

Upon hearing this, Gao Rui was immediately furious, grinding his teeth as he said, "So it was you kid who informed them of the flaw in my Sword Skill, hmm."

"Fine, you want to withstand my sword strike, huh? Then let’s see if you can identify any flaws when facing my next strike!"

The expression on Gao Rui’s face turned to rage as he raised the sword’s edge, cold Sword Aura began to fill the air, and a powerful and domineering sword intent spread from Gao Rui, striking towards Lin Bai.

Everyone became alarmed upon sensing the unfolding sword intent.

"Is Gao Rui getting serious?"

"My goodness, this sword has not yet been unleashed from Gao Rui’s hand, and I can already feel the terrifying power of this sword."

"That lad, wonder if he still has the same good luck to see through the flaw in Gao Rui’s sword."

The surrounding Warriors were talking with frightened expressions.

Faced with such a powerful sword intent from Gao Rui, the other Warriors thought Lin Bai would turn pale with fear, shaking uncontrollably, but Lin Bai clearly didn’t take Gao Rui to heart, and with a casual smile, he said, "Come on."

Gao Rui stunned, heard the contempt in Lin Bai’s words, and immediately, the rage on his face intensified, a sword flash exploded forth, and the horrific power crashed towards Lin Bai’s face like a wild dragon.

"How powerful!"

Fang Jin and all the surrounding Warriors were shocked pale upon seeing this sword unleashed, with Fang Jin inevitably worrying for Lin Bai.

"It’s full of flaws." Lin Bai sneered disdainfully, and with a casual flick of the right hand forming a sword finger, a wisp of Sword Aura spread out, piercing through Gao Rui’s sword intent.

This wisp of Sword Aura, unstoppable as a hot knife through butter, struck straight at Gao Rui’s chest, sending him flying out to land a hundred meters away, his face deathly pale!

"How can this be possible! With just a casual flick of his finger, he sent Gao Rui flying!" The surrounding Warriors cried out in shock.

Even Housekeeper Zhuo Yi at this moment showed surprise, his pupils involuntarily giving Lin Bai a second glance!
