Fantasy: One Effort, Ten Thousand Times Critical Hit Harvest!

Chapter 49



Chapter 49: That Blade in Xunyang City, He Can’t Forget

Now, his sword momentum had reached the six-tenths realm.

If that disciple dared to appear before him, he would probably be unable to use his blade momentum and would be directly suppressed!

As for Li Jianyi,

he had already possessed six-tenths of sword momentum half a year ago.

No one knew how high he had reached by now.

The most critical point was that the Wang of Anshan was no ordinary noble family; they were… aristocrats!

Born with a noble bloodline,

they could inherit and utilize the powers of their ancestors.

Although he had just claimed he could defeat Li Jianyi,

it was merely bravado.

The number of disciples in the plaza continued to increase,

and the same went for the high platforms.

Representatives from numerous noble families had arrived, and the high-ranking officials of the academy were taking their seats one by one.

Wang Sanjiu, are you ready for the grand ceremony? Is the Outer Academy’s top hundred down to single digits?

A middle-aged man in a white robe said with a smile,

glancing toward the high platform not far away.

That was where the elders of the Outer Academy were seated.

“Zhang Xuan, speaking so soon; be careful not to get slapped in the face.”

Wang Sanjiu snorted coldly.

If Luo Mu were here, he would certainly recognize him as the elder from the Cangwu Tower.

Shall we place a bet?

Zhang Xuan proposed.

A bet on what?

Wang Sanjiu was unyielding.

“This is a fourth-grade spiritual herb, Xuanwang Ginseng.”

Zhang Xuan took out a jade box and placed it on the table.

“Just a fourth-grade herb; I have plenty.”

Wang Sanjiu took out one as well.

A fourth-grade spiritual herb—Zang Linghua.

Upon hearing this,

Zhang Xuan’s eyes brightened. The technique he was currently cultivating required a Zang Linghua.

“It seems I might have a pleasant surprise during this ceremony,”

Zhang Xuan said leisurely,

implying that he was confident in securing this spiritual herb.

“Hmph.”

Wang Sanjiu replied coldly.

During this time, he had naturally heard the news about Luo Mu.

He hadn’t expected that the young man he had only met twice would grow to such heights!

Having comprehended martial momentum at the True Aperture realm was indeed astonishing.

Even within the inner academy, there was no one who could surpass him!

It was just a pity that Luo Mu’s time for growth was still too limited.

He was probably still lingering in the True Aperture realm.

Even if he barely made it to the Spirit Sea realm, he wouldn’t be able to compete with those who had entered the Spirit Sea early in the inner academy!

Nonetheless, he was sure that a spot in the top hundred was guaranteed!

Buzz!

Suddenly, the earth trembled.

A beam of light, like a divine bridge, extended from deep within the academy.

It fell upon the largest high platform in the plaza.

As the light dissipated,

several figures appeared on the platform.

It was none other than the Grand Elder of the academy.

The higher-ups in the academy were often elusive,

rarely seen or encountered.

Only during such grand events would they make an appearance.

Behind the Grand Elder,

there was also a young man clad in a python robe,

handsome and exuding nobility.

His skin was as white as snow.

If it weren’t for the obvious Adam’s apple, one might mistake him for a girl.

“Greetings, Grand Elder!”

Everyone in the academy immediately stood up,

bowing in respect.

This included representatives from noble families

and the disciples below.

The sound reverberated through the plaza like a wave.

The Grand Elder was the second most powerful martial artist in the academy, right after the Palace Master.

Few knew the specifics of his cultivation level.

“Everyone, please be seated.”

The Grand Elder had a kindly demeanor,

with a gentle expression.

His long white beard nearly brushed the ground.

“The Palace Master is in deep meditation and is currently cultivating in the outer world, so I will preside over this ceremony.”

The Grand Elder surveyed the crowd,

and those who made eye contact instinctively lowered their heads.

It was a feeling of pressure that couldn’t be described in words.

It felt as though making eye contact for even a second could shatter one’s spirit into nothingness!

Luo Mu felt similarly.

What level of cultivation is this?

Luo Mu was shaken internally.

(Xuan Dan)?

It definitely wasn’t just that.

It must be the Earth-Opening realm, or even beyond it…!

“Additionally, this is His Highness, the Ninth Prince, who has come from the imperial capital.”

The Grand Elder introduced.

The Ninth Prince stepped forward, appearing in everyone’s view.

“The Ninth Prince!”

Many people became excited.

Royalty.

How many people would go a lifetime without seeing someone from the royal family, let alone a prince of such stature!

This is the Ninth Prince? So beautiful—no, so handsome!

Some female disciples immediately showed infatuation,

wishing they could offer themselves in marriage and bear children.

“Greetings, Your Highness the Ninth Prince.”

The uproar began again.

“Everyone, please be seated. I have heard that Chang Le is filled with many skilled warriors. Now that I see, it is indeed true. With all of you here, the southern border will be stable for many years to come.”

The Ninth Prince smiled slightly.

His words instantly brought smiles to everyone’s faces,

especially those from noble families.

While words might not always ring true, pleasant talk is always appreciated.

It’s him!

Luo Mu was momentarily stunned.

Feeling a sense of familiarity, he quickly remembered.

It was the young man he had locked eyes with in Xunyang City.

At that time, he had felt an extraordinary aura from him.

He never expected that he was actually the Ninth Prince.

Fate truly is peculiar.

“It’s about time; let the ceremony begin.”

The Grand Elder looked up, not selecting a specific moment, and waved his hand.

As his voice fell,

the atmosphere suddenly became heated.

Both the noble families and the disciples were eager and ready to go.

This grand ceremony was unlike any before.

Previously, those who ranked at the top only received the academy’s generous rewards or entered military service, starting as a school lieutenant!

A school lieutenant was a rank just below that of a general.

It was already very high.

But if one could serve under the Ninth Prince,

then their future would certainly be more than just a school lieutenant or a general.

Titles of marquis or even king

were not impossible!

In a dynasty that had stood for nearly a hundred thousand years, all sorts of resources had long been monopolized.

Ordinary people wanting to rise

had to seize opportunities.

On the high platform,

the Ninth Prince’s gaze wandered.

“Are you looking for someone, Your Highness?”

The Grand Elder glanced at him.

“Just looking around,”

the Ninth Prince smiled.

Unfortunately, there were too many disciples below, and he couldn’t find the person he had been thinking about for so long.

“That’s Li Jianyi from the Wang of Anshan. In terms of both aptitude and talent, he stands at the top. He is currently the number one disciple in our Chang Le Academy.”

The Grand Elder remarked.

“Mm.”

The Ninth Prince nodded.

But he merely glanced casually.

Li Jianyi’s talent and strength were indeed commendable,

but he couldn’t forget that blade from Xunyang City!
