Compared to the warm, cheerful atmosphere at Little Bamboo Peak during meals.
At Great Bamboo Peak, aside from Tian Ling'er, the other disciples seemed deeply afraid of their master, Tian Buyi, and did not dare say much.
As for Su Han.
He ate while curiously examining the Word Traits of everyone on Great Bamboo Peak, including Tian Buyi.
Name: Tian Buyi Identity: Great Bamboo Peak Master Word Traits: Cold Exterior, Warm Heart (Red), Above Average Talent (Orange+), Hate Evil Like an Enemy (Gold), Disciple-Protecting Maniac (Orange), Fated Supporting Character (Orange), Stubborn and Unyielding (Blue)... Name: Du Bishu Identity: Great Bamboo Peak disciple Word Traits: Small Stake, Big Win (Purple), Ordinary Talent (Green), Fated Supporting Character (Green), Good at Cooking (White)... Name: Song Daren Identity:...
Su Han gave them a quick once-over and found that, aside from Su Ru, Tian Ling'er, and Zhang Xiaofan, whom he had already examined, only Tian Buyi's traits were worth his attention.
Of Du Bishu's traits, only Small Stake, Big Win (Purple) was somewhat interesting.
As for everyone else's traits, there was basically nothing Su Han could use.
Still, Su Han was somewhat surprised as he looked at Tian Buyi's traits.
Because Tian Buyi actually possessed a Gold Word Trait: Hate Evil Like an Enemy.
"Can a disposition or state of mind like Hate Evil Like an Enemy become a Word Trait?"
"What exactly does it do?"
With doubts in his heart, Su Han silently asked the system, System, give me a detailed introduction to the Hate Evil Like an Enemy (Gold) trait.
Trait Name: Hate Evil Like an Enemy Grade: Gold Trait Effect One: Upright and Fearless: Possesses a fierce and unyielding disposition, utterly despises evil people, and cannot be affected by any bewitchment or charm-type spells. Trait Effect Two: Eradicate Evil Completely: When facing evil people, can exceed one's usual limits and unleash extraordinary strength, with even a chance of breaking through at death's door.
"This trait is rather interesting!"
Su Han felt a slight stir of interest as he read the detailed introduction to the Hate Evil Like an Enemy trait.
What counted as an evil person?
That was hardly an exact definition!
If someone from the demonic sect sincerely believed that everything he did was to save the world.
Then, in his eyes, those standing against him would be evil people.
At that point, he could bring out the effects of the Hate Evil Like an Enemy trait.
"Only..."
"This trait will most likely affect one's disposition. Without a trait capable of controlling one's state of mind, it would be better not to plunder it."
Su Han shook his head and quietly committed Tian Buyi's Gold Word Trait to memory.
If I plunder a trait in the future that can keep my state of mind from being affected by all sorts of factors, I can consider taking Hate Evil Like an Enemy.
After dinner.
Su Han looked expectantly at the disciples of Great Bamboo Peak.
Su Ru rose gracefully at that moment and smiled at Su Han. "Xiao Han, I already told them about your wish to spar with them."
After saying that.
She called to the Great Bamboo Peak disciples, "Come, let's go outside and see who Xiao Han wishes to spar with."
Tian Buyi was somewhat reluctant, muttering, "Always making a fuss over such pointless matters."
"What is there to fight over with a disciple who has not even reached the Yuqing Realm?"
"With that time, they might as well cultivate more."
Despite saying so, he did not leave.
There was even a trace of anticipation in his eyes, as though he wanted to see how his own disciples compared to Shui Yue's disciple.
Tian Ling'er was the most excited of all. She skipped about and impatiently pulled Su Han outside.
Zhang Xiaofan followed behind them. His eyes held both curiosity toward the coming spar and a trace of gloom over his own inadequate strength.
Before long, everyone arrived outside.
Moonlight spilled across Great Bamboo Peak's courtyard, draping everything in a veil of silver.
Song Daren, Wu Dayi, Zheng Dali, He Dazhi, Lu Daxin, Du Bishu, and Zhang Xiaofan stood in a row opposite Su Han.
Su Ru stood in the middle, looking gently at Su Han as she softly said, "Xiao Han, Great Bamboo Peak has few disciples. We cannot compare to Little Bamboo Peak."
"Every disciple of Great Bamboo Peak is here now."
"Choose one of them as your opponent and spar with him."
After speaking, Su Ru turned to Song Daren, Wu Dayi, and the others.
"You all, Xiao Han came up the mountain together with Xiaofan. Remember not to hit too hard."
Hearing Su Ru's instructions, Song Daren, Wu Dayi, and the others hurriedly clasped their hands. "Rest assured, Mistress. We will mind our limits."
Then, apart from Song Daren, all of them looked at Su Han with great interest.
"Junior Brother Su Han, pick me!"
"Junior Brother Su Han, don't listen to Du Bishu. Though he entered the sect later, he is not weak at all. You can't beat him, so pick me!"
"Pick me, pick me..."
Tian Buyi, however, folded his arms and frowned as he impatiently said, "Hmph, why make this so troublesome? Just pick Seventh."
"Anyway, he's weak. He can probably only beat Seventh."
"And that way, no one will get hurt."
"Otherwise, if you get injured and delay building your foundation, hasn't your master told you that foundations are crucial at this stage?"
Hearing his master's words, Zhang Xiaofan revealed a trace of awkwardness and helplessness. Yet, unusually, there was also a hint of anticipation.
Of course, he was not looking forward to fighting Su Han. He was looking forward to seeing his master's expression once he learned of Su Han's cultivation.
Tian Ling'er did not say a word throughout it all, her face constantly filled with a smile.
Meanwhile, hearing Tian Buyi's cold snort, Song Daren and the others exchanged glances and no longer dared speak.
Su Han pondered slightly, his gaze sweeping across the crowd.
Among these disciples, Su Han estimated that only Song Daren's cultivation had reached the fourth layer of the Yuqing Realm, allowing him to wield a magical treasure.
As for the others, Du Bishu had only broken through to the fourth layer of the Yuqing Realm in Zhang Xiaofan's third year after coming up the mountain.
Even by the time of the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament, Wu Dayi, Zheng Dali, and Lu Daxin had still not broken through to the fourth layer of the Yuqing Realm.
With that in mind, Su Han finally looked toward Du Bishu.
Song Daren could wield a magical treasure, and Su Han might not be able to defeat him yet. He might as well choose someone strong enough to give himself a warm-up first.
After all, this was Su Han's first time using the Seven Tribulations Dragon Slaying Art.
Having decided on his target, Su Han no longer hesitated.
"Martial Aunt Su Ru, I choose..."
As he spoke, Su Han pointed at Du Bishu. "Senior Brother Du Bishu."
"Huh?"
"Me?"
Du Bishu looked at Su Han pointing at him, seeming somewhat pleasantly surprised.
Seeing that Su Han had chosen Du Bishu, whose cultivation ranked only below Song Daren among the disciples, Su Ru could not help feeling slightly worried.
She had intended to persuade Su Han to choose another opponent, but soon smiled wryly.
After all, in her eyes, aside from Zhang Xiaofan, every other disciple had reached the Yuqing Realm. None of them were opponents Su Han could defeat.
So she did not stop him, merely waiting to rescue someone later.
Tian Buyi snorted coldly. "Since it's you, don't disgrace Great Bamboo Peak. But don't forget to show restraint either."
"Yes, Master."
Du Bishu nodded at Tian Buyi, then hurriedly walked over to stand opposite Su Han with a smile.
"Rest assured, Junior Brother Su Han. Your senior brother will go easy on you."
After saying that.
He slightly clasped his hands toward Su Han. "Great Bamboo Peak disciple Du Bishu, please!"
Su Han calmly shook his head. "Senior Brother, it would be best if you did not hold back. Otherwise, it would be no fun."
As he spoke.
Su Han picked up the refined steel longsword he had asked Tian Ling'er to find earlier and lightly clasped his hands.
"Little Bamboo Peak disciple Su Han, first layer of the Yuqing Realm. Please enlighten me, Senior Brother!"
