Chapter 260: Skill Close to Dao, Strike!

ne's guidance, she learned through some traces left by the Jianxin Holy Land and mastered the method of forming an array with forty-nine flying swords. Her talent was naturally beyond compare.Cultivat...A blinding flash of sword light, so intense that people couldn't even open their eyes.

But everyone heard three cries of misery.

"Ouch!"

"Ah!"

"Ouch!"

Then, the sword light that enveloped the square dissipated like a tide.

When everyone saw the three people lying on the ground, their hearts seemed to be grasped tightly by an invisible hand, and expressions of disbelief appeared on every face.

These three people's wounds, in terms of location and depth, were all exactly the same!

"This…"

"How is that possible"

"How on earth did you do that"

Gasps of surprise followed one after another.

Everyone's gaze at Yun Hao underwent a dramatic shift.

This is far more violent and intense than the impact he just caused by casually waving his sleeves to blow away Lu Chong!

Even the high-ranking officials of the Martial Arts Academy on the platform were dumbfounded.

The sword light just now, naturally could not obstruct their vision and perception.

It was precisely because they had seen that sword strike that they were even more shocked than the disciples who were watching.

A rather ordinary sword.

...but there was something about it that they couldn't quite see through!

With a single strike, he effortlessly injured the three who attacked him from different directions. The location and depth of their wounds were all identical.

It's simply breathtaking!

"Skill is close to the Tao!"

Deputy Dean Lu Ming uttered these four words.

All eyes on the platform were focused on Lu Ming.

"Skill is close to the way..." an old man muttered softly.

Someone's eyes were wide open.

And some people were still staring at Yun Hao below with feverish eyes.

These four characters represent an immense meaning!

Look!

This is something that all practitioners who have reached a certain level tirelessly pursue.

A warrior must clearly define his own path.

The array master must also clearly define their own path.

Just like alchemists, one must also be clear about their own path.

Only after seeing clearly the Dao, making it clear in one's mind, and then diligently forging ahead on this path, can one truly progress bravely!

The Dao is a direction, the path that all cultivators take to become stronger!

Up to this point.

Throughout the entire Qingfeng Imperial Dynasty, it is widely known that only three people have comprehended their own Dao.

One was Yuan Chunqing, the head of Tianshiyuan. He had cultivated for over seventy years and reached the peak of the Guiyi realm. Through his cultivation, he had attained enlightenment.

And there's also Chu Kong, the formation master who set up the Jiulong Jingtian Array, at the ripe old age of a hundred.

As a Grandmaster of Array Formations, he could see through the array.

The third is a once-in-five-hundred-years super genius, Han Qianshan from the Qingfeng Academy, who entered the state of returning to one at the age of twenty-three. Since then, he has been in seclusion for seven years without leaving his room, and only then did he attain the Dao!

This young man below, he doesn't look to be over twenty.

The realm was more like the initial stage of Yuan Gang, yet within a single sword strike, it revealed traces of the Dao!

Knowing Yunhao's identity, Lu Ming's heart was in turmoil.

At this moment, he finally believed the rumors from the outside world. Yun Hao, the unparalleled prodigy whose potential surpassed even Han Qian Shan, from the Qingfeng Martial Academy in Beihang County, was indeed a reality!

As for the other high-ranking members of the martial arts academy, they were shocked and curious about where this monster had come from.

Qin Xiao's eyes flickered, then he looked at his daughter Qin Meng sitting beside him and said, "Meng'er, father really intends to betrothed you to him. What do you think"

Qin Meng blushed and said, “Father, I won’t marry! I don’t care about appearance or strength. I only care about inner character!”

Qin Xiaomeng: ......

Just now, this girl didn't know about Yun Hao's strength, so she kept staring at him and said she wasn't interested in his looks

Just now she said, if she had to marry, she'd marry someone like Han Qianshan, and that she didn't care about his strength

Now another sentence comes, only caring about character...

Well, Yun Hao's character is naturally impeccable. Just his dismantling of the rebellion in Beihang County alone proves that.

Knowing his sister's personality, Qin Xiao didn't expose her. After all, she was young, and her skin was thin, so there was no need to rush.

As for the matter between the little princess and Yunhao, Qin Xiao also had some hearsay. He knew many secrets, and the chance of Yunhao being with the little princess was slim.

Moreover.

Even without that arranged marriage, Qin Xiao felt that his daughter was in no way inferior to the princess in any aspect!

"He's so handsome!"

"Wow!"

"In white, drifting like clouds, sword unsheathed and vanished, that's the husband of my dreams!"

As the saying goes, outsiders look on with amusement. A group of disciples watching the fight couldn't understand anything.

This does not prevent these female disciples from becoming fanatical.

Even some female disciples, very clever, walked up to the fat man and Shi Feng with a smile, planning to use a roundabout strategy first to get firsthand information!

The fat man knew Shi Feng was not good at dealing with this situation, so he bravely stood in front of him. His small eyes shone with a deep light, he tilted his head up at a 45-degree angle, gazing at the sky, and a look of both radiance and melancholy appeared on his face.

"Fellow sisters, my name is Su Jun. I am just nineteen years old and have never been married. If…"

Before he could finish speaking, a group of female disciples who had gathered around, just like Qin Meng, blushed with embarrassment and turned to leave.

He Dongliu, Shi Feng, and Xiao Hei all felt ashamed and discreetly distanced themselves from the chubby one.

The fat man fully embodied the saying "if I'm not embarrassed, then it must be you who is," with his hands clasped behind his back and a despondent tone, he sighed, "People don't know how great Fatty is. He rises like a tiger and never falls!"

………

The incident in the crowd did not affect the course of the competition.

Yun Hao, with a single sword strike, subdued the three attackers. He held onto his flag firmly, his intimidating display causing everyone else to hesitate and none dared to try and take it from him.

And soon, the other four flags also found their place.

Yun Hao watched the people competing for a place in the competition like an outsider. He found that,

Those who got the flags actually already each had their own small circle alliance.

There was also a woman who apparently rallied a group of people around her, but unfortunately, that woman didn't get the flag.

The woman glanced at the incense on the high platform, which had burned for a third of its length. Then she looked at Yun Hao, a smile appeared on her face, and said: "Your strength is beyond our expectations, you're very good, but this flag I must have it. Sell me face and hand it over, I can give you a satisfactory reward.

“."

Although it was a competition, Qinfeng Academy didn't set many strict rules. So, Xu Zhi's benefit exchange didn't violate any regulations.

Yún Hào's expression was calm, and he said softly, "I want something you can't give me."

The woman smiled and said, “You may as well tell me.”

Yun Hao: "If you have the guts, come and take the flag directly."

The smile on the woman's face vanished, and her expression grew cold. "Are you sure you won't give me some face"

Yun Hao still had that expressionless face and indifferent tone. He said, "Your face has nothing to do with me."

"Oh no!" He Dongliu, who was watching the battle, frowned.

"What's wrong Is this woman very powerful" the fat man whispered.

He Dongliu: “Her name is Xu Lin, she’s not that remarkable, but she is Xu Ziliu’s sister and still Li Dongfeng’s lover!”

Li Dongfeng, you've already met him, he's right over there.

"Who is Xu Ziliu" asked Shi Feng.

He Dongliu's expression was solemn. He said, "The strongest under thirty in our Qingfeng Institute is at the ninth level of the Jindan realm!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

The fat man, Shi Feng, and Xiao Hei all said "Oh" at the same time.

He Dongliu: "..."

How do you feel, these two humans and a dog seem very inflated, they don't even look down on the Ninth Layer of the Golden Core Realm

On stage.

Wanting to make Yunhao sell his face, Xu Lin found that it didn't work. She then turned to the other four people holding flags and said, "According to our previous agreement, we five will divide these five spots. If there is resistance, we are all opponents."

Immediately.

The four of them walked without hesitation to Xu Lin's side.

It's easy to gauge what's more important.

Xu Lin's elder brother, Xu Zi Liu, is the strongest under thirty in Qingfeng Academy, with a cultivation base of the ninth level of the Jindan realm. He has a guaranteed spot, and so does Li Dongfeng, who is in love with Xu Lin and also has a cultivation base of the sixth level of the Jindan realm.

The Qinfeng Courtyard joined the Imperial Competition for prestige. They went just to show their faces and gain some attention, they still rely on Xu Ziliu and Li Dongfeng for help.

So, as soon as Xu Lin spoke, they had a choice.

Just now, during the flag competition, more than ten people have been eliminated.

With Xu Lin and five others as the core, there were sixteen people who helped to capture the flag. Counting Xu Lin and her five teammates, there were twenty-one people in total.

Equivalently, all twenty-one of them had set their sights on Yun Hao! demigods of the Feather Clan also gained confidence. One of them sneered, "You Silver Clan are used to being domineering. Today, it's your turn to taste some suffering!"As the instigator, Yun Hao sto...
