Chương 30: War God — Chapter 30 - Shock the Entire School!

Under the gaze of the crowd, Wang Xian shook his head.

"No need." Having Bai Hongtian instruct him at this stage wouldn't improve much anyway. Especially the Flowing Water Blade Technique. Even with further instruction, it couldn't compare to the insight he'd just gained. Wang Xian felt that Bai Hongtian unreservedly displaying the Overlord Blade Intent within that single strike was already a sincere enough martial demonstration. For these students, unless they were true peerless geniuses, barely a handful could grasp even a fraction of such intent.

The fact that he himself could comprehend even a trace was already an immense fortune. No need? The crowd froze. Any clear-eyed person could see the Grandmaster held him in high regard! To pass up an opportunity like that... The class representatives wore strange expressions, each with a different look. Cui Guoliang was so anxious his scalp tingled, itching to speak up himself. Several Class 4 representatives, especially Zhou Xukun, hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.

Behind them, Principal Xia's eyelid twitched. Afraid of displeasing Grandmaster Bai, he spoke first:"Ahem, Student Wang's blade technique is quite good... but since he just broke through to the first stage, he probably hasn't had time to study basic martial arts yet, right?"

"Cough cough... so..." The students suddenly understood. So he hadn't learned it yet. Then what was the Grandmaster supposed to instruct him on? They couldn't possibly expect a Seventh Realm Great Grandmaster to teach him a basic martial art on the spot, could they? Where would anyone get that kind of face! Grandmaster Bai frowned slightly. Was that so?

"Principal... Student Wang isn't someone who hasn't gone to learn..." Among the class representatives, Li Zihang grinned.

"About a week ago, he went to the library to observe and study basic martial arts. He just only went once." He didn't dare say more. But the crowd understood. Xia Sichen had studied 3 times over 3 or 4 weeks before fully mastering it. Ye Miyue's martial talent was even higher than Xia Sichen's, and she still spent half a month. You only went once, and that was a week ago. Didn't that mean basically zero progress? Cui Guoliang frowned slightly. He knew about this too. In his heart, he'd always felt it was a pity.

But something felt off. Logically speaking, Wang Xian's talent in blade techniques should be very high. He shouldn't have gone once, failed to learn it, and then just given up. This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings. Or rather... Could it be... he went once and completely mastered it? Impossible... Cui Guoliang shook his head. Chen Yuting stared at Wang Xian, thinking, truly wanting to speak. Suddenly, Ye Miyue said softly:"Student Wang's talent in blade techniques is very high...

he should be close to mastering it..."

"I hope Grandmaster Bai can instruct him..." The crowd, especially the male students below, turned to stone. No way! The Iceberg Ye actually spoke up for a male student? And in this kind of setting! Impossible!

"Auditory hallucination, definitely an auditory hallucination!"

"Student Ye doesn't completely refuse to talk to others in our class... but she's never taken the initiative, much less spoken up to help someone..."

"No way? Is this real?"

"Laughable... the goddess that even those rich second-generation kids at school don't dare pursue... actually took the initiative to speak up for someone..."

"That bastard Wang Xian, he really deserves to die!" Below, chaos reigned. Clearly, the moment Ye Miyue opened her mouth, it had the impact of an earthquake. Chen Yuting's eyes went wide, looking at Ye Miyue in disbelief. Her gaze gradually grew complicated! Li Zihang was also stunned, glancing at Ye Miyue. The jealousy in his heart instantly peaked. But he didn't dare say anything more. Wang Xian cast a casual glance at the few of them, his gaze landing solely on Ye Miyue.

Ye Miyue's eyes darted away, completely unable to meet his directly.

"No matter." Bai Hongtian laughed heartily.

"Even if you've just started learning, I can still teach you. What martial art did you study? Show me first." His meaning was clear. Even if you truly know nothing at all, I really can teach you a basic martial art on the spot. An ordinary student wouldn't be worth such regard from a Great Grandmaster. Even if he was a student role model who had bravely saved someone. Seeing that Bai Hongtian was set on this, Wang Xian knew there was no way around it.

Walking to the side, Wang Xian picked up a large blade from the weapon rack. He weighed it lightly in his hand. The next second, he swung the blade out! Flowing Water Blade Technique, First Form, Flowing Clouds and Water! A faint azure blade aura seemed to gestate along the blade's edge, pouring out in streams like flowing water! As if formed by nature itself!

"Flowing Water Blade Technique!" Almost the instant Wang Xian began his move, Pang Sandao blurted out! This was the one he especially wanted to learn. Unfortunately, this basic blade technique was far too difficult. He'd watched it several times, only to feel dizzy and confused, completely unable to grasp the essentials. He'd had to settle for second best, learning the Eight-Slash Blade instead. Yet now.

Watching those moves, each one as if formed by nature itself, every move flowing like clouds and water, his head suddenly exploded. This was not a Flowing Water Blade Technique that had not been mastered! This was... He didn't know what realm it was, but it absolutely exceeded his imagination. Perhaps seeing the final move, Surging Waves Over Heaven and Earth, would allow a clearer judgment. Likewise. Almost the instant Wang Xian made his move, the crowd stiffened.

They became completely immersed in this blade technique that was truly like flowing clouds and water.

"Wind and Rain Like Darkness!" Wang Xian slashed out, blade aura unfurling like a curtain! Within it, blade shadows layered thick and heavy. As if each blade had become a string of beads in a torrential downpour! Laced with fierce gales, every slash carried variations between the real and illusory, impossible to grasp. It shook the onlookers to their core! Until Wang Xian leaped into the air, vanishing into the sky-spanning rain curtain formed by those blade shadows! His figure seemed to disappear entirely!

"Surging Waves Over Heaven and Earth!" The next second! The rain curtain was abruptly cleaved open. Majestic blade waves surged forth like a roaring tsunami! The immense blade momentum was terrifying beyond belief! Faintly, it carried an elusive, hard-to-pinpoint flavor. The blade waves cleaved outward, each wave overtaking the last. Until the final fourth blade wave even raised a visible, 12-meter-long pale azure blade aura! Like a true ocean wave! BOOM!

The high platform, built from superior goldstone rock, was directly cleaved by this last blade aura, leaving a 12-meter-long scar! The scar extended all the way to Principal Xia's feet behind him. When the smoke and dust cleared, Wang Xian casually tossed the long blade in his hand, sending it flying accurately onto the weapon rack beside him. In that instant, the entire venue was dead silent. One after another, mouths gaped wide. Across the entire field, you could hear a pin drop.

Shock appeared on every single face. Even in Bai Hongtian's eyes, visible astonishment flickered.

"Holy shit... this kid's Flowing Water Blade Technique... it's reached perfected mastery, hasn't it?" Cheng Wu, who had been eating melon seeds and watching the show ever since handing over the award certificate, couldn't help but curse out loud. A senior-year student who had just started learning martial arts, able to train a basic martial art to this level? Was this real? Staggering... Pang Sandao retreated several steps in a row, his neck flushed red, breathing ragged, yet his eyes were somewhat hollow.

"Surging Waves Over Heaven and Earth, 4 consecutive cleaving waves... perfected mastery..."

"How is that possible..." He couldn't accept it. According to what those Class 4 people said, Wang Xian had only gone to study once, just a week ago. And he had already trained a blade technique to this realm? Both were blade practitioners. How could the gap between one person and another be this vast? In that moment, the thought of never touching a blade again for the rest of his life suddenly crossed his mind.
