Chapter 695: Chapter 421: The Final Round _1
The young girl at the door was also someone Chen Mobai knew.
She had snow-white skin, delicate features, almond-shaped eyes filled with vitality, and long black hair tied up with a light-colored hairband, making her look upright and pure.
HHer light pink long-sleeved blouse could not hide her full curves, below her slim waist was a red and black checkered skirt that tightly adhered to her plump thigh curves, extending down. She wore round-toed leather shoes and her beautiful long legs were wrapped in a thin layer of black stockings, which were straight and symmetrical, the faint visibility of her flesh-tone making her look even more innocent and charming.
âYou⊠are you also participating in the final round?â
Seeing the stunning Wanyu at the door, Chen Mobai couldnât help but look surprised.
âYes, my friend saw the advertisement for the Purple Electric Swordâs selection process, and since Iâm practicing Lu Guangâs Sword Mean at the academy, they suggested I try. I sent over a White Stone imbued with Sword Qi, not expecting it to be chosen by Master Hao Cao for the final round.â
...
Wanyu herself was quite surprised by her good luck and initially thought there was a mix-up from the Mountain Sea Academy.
It wasnât until it was confirmed several times, that the renowned Master Hao Cao had personally reviewed and selected her, that she excitedly boarded the train to White Stone Cave Heaven.
When she arrived, she heard that Chen Mobai was also one of the sixteen names in the final round.
Considering how well they chatted during holidays, they could be considered friends, so she decided to ask her teacher at Mountain Sea Academy for his address and pay him a visit.
âSo it seems we are competitors.â
Chen Mobai said jokingly and then invited Wanyu in. She blushed slightly but was surprised to find two unfamiliar young men inside when she came in.
âThis is Zhongli Tianyu, this is Zha Jianbai, both are my schoolmates from Dance Tool Dao Academy.â
âThis is my good friend,Wanyu from the Starlight Institute.â
As the host, Chen Mobai naturally had to introduce the three to each other. The two men, with their deep cultivation levels, had already heard the conversation at the door.
âSomeone from the Qi Cultivating Realm made it to the final round?â
Zhongli Tianyu spoke quite directly, looking at Wanyu with a slight frown. Although those in the cultivation community did not check each otherâs Cultivation Levels, the huge gap between realms was still noticeable.
His words were a tad belittling.
Hearing this, Wanyuâs complexion paled slightly, her eyes flickering with a hint of anger.
âIn the final round, eight of them are Qi Practitioners.â
Chen Mobai quickly announced. He had known from Pei Qingshuang that among the sixteen contestants in the final round, eight were Qi Practitioners, three were at Core Formation stage, and five were in their Foundation Establishment stage.
The point was to proclaim that this selection was truly fair and just, that cultivators of all realms had a chance.
After all, there were more than 200 million Qi Practitioners in the cultivation community. This data could greatly boost the morale of the public.
âOh, really?â
Taken aback by the information, Zhongli Tianyu looked at Wanyu more carefully.
In his view, the Sword Qi of the Qi Cultivating Realm was certainly inferior to that of the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, since Master Hao Cao had chosen eight Qi Practitioners out of thousands of White Stones, it meant that the Sword Qi of these eight practitioners had their own unique aspects, which were at least comparable to the Foundation Establishment practitioners in some areas.
The mystery and secrets behind this intrigued Zhongli Tianyu.
âCould I see your Sword Qi?â
Caught off guard by Zhongli Tianyuâs straightforward request, Wanyu was somewhat at a loss.
âI donât have any White Stone on me.â
Wanyu spoke the truth. Although White Stone was not precious to them, it was an extra Good Deed Points expenditure for a Qi Practitioner.
After she had inscribed her Sword Qi, Wanyu hadnât bothered purchasing any more White Stones.
âItâs okay, Chen here has plenty.â
Zhongli Tianyu pointed to a basket in the corner. Pei Qingshuang had brought these from Hao Caoâs Sword Grinding Room. Chen Mobai had used less than half to infuse five Sword Qis, and the rest had been left in the corner.
âThen⊠I should learn a lot.â
Seeing this unfold, Wanyu could only agree. Just as she was about to head to the corner and pick up a White Stone to demonstrate her Lu Guangâs Sword Mean, she was stopped by Chen Mobai.
âEveryoneâs Sword Qi is a secret, related to the final choice of the Purple Electric Sword, you donât have to do this.â
Chen Mobai knew Zhongli Tianyuâs character was nothing personal, but still felt it was a bit hard on others. However, to save face for both parties, Chen offered a perfectly valid reason.
âThis was my impudence.â
Thinking it over, Zhongli Tianyu realized that was indeed the case and immediately apologized to Wanyu.
âItâs nothing, I knew I wasnât going to be the one chosen by the Purple Electric Sword the moment I found out senior brother Chen Mobai was participating.â
Wanyu, quite clear-minded about herself, waved her hand with a light smile to suggest that her Lu Guangâs Sword Mean was not anything significant after Zhongli Tianyuâs apology.
âBut since I havenât mastered my Sword Qi, I need to meditate for three days and three nights to infuse a complete set. So I probably wonât be able to show you guys until after three days.â
As she spoke, Wanyu had already picked up a piece of white stone from the basket and, with her twinkling moon-shaped eyes, she smiled and explained.</p
