1528 Am I This Unlucky? (1)
Unity of man and sword was an ideal state.
Although hard to believe, such a state was frightening.
Furthermore, the number of people who could reach it was extremely few.
It was different from sword consciousness, or sword ultimas and domains. It was a cultivation of a person’s body and mind.
Many swordsmen just used and controlled their swords, treating them as mere tools for killing people.
!!
However, there were some who were born different. They treated their swords as extensions of their bodies, just like limbs. They never parted with them.
The audience saw this ideal state exemplified by Su Jianchen. Some of the formidable warriors were startled; they sized him up curiously.
“This youth has great talent!” said one of the eternal stage warriors.
Numerous fighters were astounded by the compliment, and from an eternal stage warrior no less, one who also had sword talent. This proved a point.
Eternal stage warriors rarely spoke, especially if they didn’t have any relations.h.i.+p with the person in question.
However, the young man’s sword talent was so impressive that the powerful expert couldn’t help himself.
The emperor of the Tian Luo Empire laughed. He looked at his disciple with satisfaction.
“Your majesty, congratulations,” said the universe stage warriors accompanying him, one after the other.
On the military battle fortress—General Fu Xinglan commented, “He’s indeed astonis.h.i.+ng.”
“I didn’t expect Su Jianchen’s sword talent to be this strong,” General Habakkuk agreed.
On the imperial family’s s.p.a.cecraft—the middle aged man from the ruling family was surprised. “Such a great talent, sprouting in a mid-tier civilization. Indeed, a true hero can never be judged by his background.”
He then remembered w.a.n.g Teng, but that young swordsman was also amazing. Will he be w.a.n.g Teng’s match?
The universe stage elder next to him shook his head and said, “This young man is talented, but he can’t be compared to the Crown Prince.”
The senior didn’t reply, but his gaze was filled with contempt. These old fellows are blinded by their bias and arrogance, never looking at other talents.
Up, on the forbidden zones’ stone platforms—many of the top ten talents were also taken aback by Su Jianchen’s potential. They stared at one another in bewilderment.
Even the Crown Prince was intrigued. The swordsman in gray reminded him of the talents he met outside the Great Qian Empire.
There are still many surprises to be had in the Great Qian Empire. It was worth coming back.
Well, at least he knew he couldn’t become one with his sword!
This was unacceptable.
After all, the elders in the imperial family had at one time praised his sword talent, since he managed to grasp his domain at a young age. He was an outstanding youth among the talents of his generation.
And yet, he was surpa.s.sed by a warrior from a mid-tier civilization. How could he bear it?
His gaze blazed with a compet.i.tive flair. He wanted to defeat the young swordsman and use the latter’s reputation as his stepping stone.
The Second Prince, Ji Haochen and Strachey were dumbfounded. They started to view the fighter in gray with more importance, no longer looking down on him.
Although unwilling to admit, they did underestimate Su Jianchen prior to this, feeling he wasn’t a worthy opponent.
However, from the looks of it, he was indeed a mighty adversary.
Su Jianchen and Yuan Hong left the arena. Their battle ended with the former claiming victory.
Cheers erupted in the Tian Luo Empire. All the martial warriors were shouting the young swordsman’s name.
“Su Jianchen!”
“Su Jianchen!”
“Su Jianchen!”
…
A genius from their empire had defeated another top-tier talent and gained more popularity in the League of Talents, making them feel extremely proud.
w.a.n.g Teng was in awe after watching the fight.
Su Jianchen was powerful, so his talent had to be top-notch.
Yuan Hong was also strong, a rare talent in his own right.
The attribute bubbles they dropped are good stuff.
With this thought in mind, he released his spiritual power and picked up the attribute bubbles floating in mid-air.
Constellation Force (Metal)*10200
Metal Ultima*2800
Heaven Realm Enlightenment*3500
Celestial Realm Spirit*4200
Divine Level Metal Talent*1800
Constellation Force (Metal)*13800
Metal Ultima*3200
Heaven Realm Enlightenment*4100
Celestial Realm Spirit*5600
Divine Level Sword Talent*2600
Divine Level Metal Talent*2300
Unity of Man and Sword*1000
…
w.a.n.g Teng was surprised by the number of attribute bubbles collected.
Force and ultima bubbles were normal, as any warrior would drop them; Su Jianchen and Yuan Hong were no exception.
However, the size of their bubbles came in larger sizes, making the young hero’s metal Force become denser.
After reaching the perfected ninth level of the celestial stage, he continued to gain more Force attributes, making his Forces become denser and more refined.
Compared to other martial warriors, his Force reserve was probably ten times larger!
Maybe even more…
Even if he only had one Force, he could still crush many talents.
Of course, talents like the Crown Prince and Su Jianchen were a different story; they couldn’t be treated like normal warriors.
The young hero would need to use some ultimate moves to defeat them.
He also received a sizable amount of ultima attributes, which allowed his enlightenment in the ones he had to become deeper. It was understandable, since he gained such enlightenment multiple times, while others would only gain it once.
