"No wonder Elder Chu values him so highly; it turns out he has cultivated Sword Intent!"
Hou Shangxing gave Wang Hao a deep look, then glared at Zhao Fengxue and Lu Weilou, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.
Now that Han Long is dead, there is naturally no need for him to stay here any longer.
He even regretted coming here today, not only putting himself in complete opposition to Lu Weilou, but also offending a peerless genius who had comprehended Sword Intent at the First-Rate level.
This is truly a huge loss!
However, since they are already enemies, we must find a way to eliminate that monstrous young man before he grows up, so as to prevent future troubles.
Fu Lin, Ye Qinggan, and the others also looked grim. They realized that despite trying to overestimate Wang Hao before the battle, they had ultimately underestimated him.
Zhao Fengxue and Lu Weilou also looked very grim, but unlike Fu Lin and the others, they were worried about Wang Hao.
Wang Hao's talent was terrifyingly strong, and even the two of them working together could barely protect him. But now that his Sword Intent had been exposed, even if only a Sisi was revealed, it was still extremely troublesome.
With the talent he has shown so far, he has a good chance of becoming a Great Grandmaster- level expert, but many people, especially the Confucian School, do not want their Blood Robe Tower to have a Xiantian Grandmaster.
This is really troublesome!
"I will entrust the Revolving Wheel Sword to Elder Chu for safekeeping. If Wheel-Turning King wishes to reclaim it, he should go to Elder Chu."
Suppressing these conflicting emotions for the time being, Zhao Fengxue darted forward and caught the falling Revolving Wheel Sword before Ye Qingqian could react, then casually tossed it toward the Martial Repository Pavilion.
Driven by immense power, the Revolving Wheel Sword transformed into a streak of light, instantly traversing hundreds of feet and disappearing into the pavilion of the Martial Repository Pavilion.
"You..."
When Ye Qingqian finally realized what was happening, he was so angry at the sight that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He never expected that Zhao Fengxue would resort to such a shameless tactic.
It's important to know that Wheel-Turning King's relationship with Elder Chu wasn't great when he was young. Now that the Revolving Wheel Sword has fallen into Elder Chu's hands, getting it back will definitely come at a heavy price, and it will also make Elder Chu dislike Wheel-Turning King.
This is a real disaster!
"Boy, come with me!"
Lu Weilou ignored Fu Lin and the others, whose faces were cold and ugly, called out to Wang Hao, and strode away. Zhao Fengxue remained silent for a moment before following him.
They need to make some arrangements now!
Fu Lin and the others gave Wang Hao a deep look, but didn't say much. They left together, as they needed to make some arrangements.
Regarding that kid's arrangements!
"You can probably guess some of the current situation, but I can tell you with certainty that it's ten times, a hundred times, more serious than you imagine!"
Following Lu Weilou and Zhao Fengxue to the entrance of the Blood Wind Hall, Lu Weilou sat in the main seat, staring intently at Wang Hao, and spoke in an extremely serious tone.
If they only had strong Sword Dao and external martial arts talent, they could suppress it, but if they added combat talent and Sword Intent, it wouldn't work.
Unless Elder Chu can go all out, Elder Chu appearance will definitely attract the attention of those old Confucian School, making the situation even worse.
So the current situation is something they really can't handle anymore!
"Your subordinate will follow the instructions of the Hall Master and the Tower Master!"
Wang Hao obediently responded, indicating that he would follow the arrangements.
There was nothing he could do; he hadn't expected that reaching the Transcendent Mastery of the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle would actually trigger his Sword Intent. Although it was only a Sisi, it still allowed his Sword Intent to shine through.
This has disrupted all plans; it seems we can't stay at Blood Robe Tower anytime soon.
"These are the missions that our Blood Robe Tower updated yesterday. Choose one and go out to explore. Come back when you break through to the Super-First-Rate and have the combat power of the Grandmaster Realm."
Zhao Fengxue picked up a thick booklet from the bookshelf next to her and tossed it to Wang Hao, letting him choose what he wanted.
Wang Hao took the booklet without saying much and quickly flipped through it to find a suitable task.
He understood Zhao Fengxue's meaning; she wanted him to leave the capital and avoid the limelight, which was a truly kind gesture!
"Hey! This is it!"
Flipping through the booklet, Wang Hao quickly spotted a familiar name. This person's reputation in the various versions of the Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Proud Wanderer was no less than that of the protagonist, Linghu Chong.
" Tian Boguang, the flower thief?"
After reviewing Wang Hao's chosen task, Zhao Fengxue sized him up and nodded in approval, saying, "Not bad. Tian Boguang is also a martial arts prodigy, his talent is no less than Dachui's, and he's currently at the Mid-Stage Super-First-Rate, which is perfect for you right now."
"Go and make preparations! We're leaving today!"
After placing the booklet back on the bookshelf, Zhao Fengxue signaled to Wang Hao that he could leave.
"Then I shall take my leave!"
Wang Hao bowed and took his leave. He understood that Zhao Fengxue and Lu Weilou had something to discuss, and it was not appropriate for him to get involved. In addition, he did have some things to take care of before leaving.
Instead of returning to his own courtyard, Wang Hao went straight to the canteen, found a cart, and carried all the dozen or so jars of fine wine that Chef Li used for cooking onto it, then pushed it towards the Martial Repository Pavilion.
Seeing Wang Hao's bandit-like behavior, Chef Li dared not utter a single complaint. He was now terrified of Wang Hao, and he was grateful that the guy wasn't causing him any trouble.
As for those fine wines, since he didn't pay for them, he can just take them away.
" Elder Chu, I've brought you some local specialties!"
Upon arriving at the Hidden Martial Repository Pavilion Martial Repository Pavilion, Wang Hao used his immense strength to lift the cart and carry it inside. He patted the dozen or so jars of fine wine on the cart and said, " Elder Chu, I may be leaving for a while. Please drink these local specialties sparingly, and don't let them run out before I return."
"You're really thoughtful, kid!"
Elder Chu was lying on a recliner playing with the Revolving Wheel Sword, glanced at Wang Hao upon hearing this, and his eyes lit up immediately when he saw the dozen or so jars of fine wine.
This kid really has a bright future!
"Sigh! You're quite the little prodigy. I originally thought it would take you at least three years to master the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle to the Transformation Realm, but who would have thought you'd break through so quickly."
After taking a deep sniff of the aroma of the dozen or so jars of fine wine, Elder Chu suddenly sighed and looked at Wang Hao with a complicated expression.
He really underestimated this little guy!
Three years? Is that so slow?
Wang Hao frowned slightly. He originally thought that even without using the Dao Comprehension Function to accelerate his progress, he would be able to master the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle to Transcendent Mastery in just a few months.
However, Elder Chu actually made a three-year prediction. With the insight of this big shot, he would not be wrong. Even if he did not know that he had already thoroughly comprehended the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle using the Dao Comprehension Function and that his cultivation speed would be very fast, he must have guessed that the prediction was not far off.
It seems that breaking through to the realm of Transcendent Mastery is many times more difficult than he imagined.
Sure enough, upon hearing Wang Hao's words, Elder Chu picked up his Revolving Wheel Sword and slapped Wang Hao hard on the forehead, glaring and cursing, "Do you think the Transcendent Mastery Realm is as Big White?!"
"Please enlighten me Elder Chu!"
Although he was in great pain from being struck by Elder Chu's Revolving Wheel Sword, Wang Hao still hurriedly smiled apologetically and asked for guidance.
After all, he had only broken through to the Transcendent Mastery Realm with the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle; he hadn't broken through to this level with any of his other martial arts. He couldn't possibly rely on the Dao Comprehension Function to break through every time!
Although the breakthrough effect was not bad, the problem was that he didn't have enough Fortune Points to consume!
Therefore, listening to this expert's explanation is definitely worthwhile!
Seeing Wang Hao's sincere attitude, Elder Chu nodded in satisfaction, picked up a jar of fine wine, poured himself a cup, took a sip, and then said in a deep voice.
"Strictly speaking, there are only two levels of martial arts training: mastery and control, and Transcendent Mastery. The first three levels that are currently mainstream can all be categorized as mastery and control."
As the name suggests, this stage involves gradually deepening one's mastery of the martial arts one is practicing. For example, "Entering the Hall and Inner Chamber" means mastering Issei of the essence, "Complete Integration " means mastering 60% of the essence, and " Peak Perfection " means mastering 90% of the essence.
"So, reaching Issei of Transcendent Mastery means grasping the final essence? Oh dear!"
Wang Hao seemed to be deep in thought as he spoke, but before he could finish, Elder Chu slapped him on the forehead again with his Revolving Wheel Sword.
" The Issei essence belongs exclusively to the founder of the martial art; it is unique and no outsider can possibly control it. I really don't know how you managed to break through to the realm of Transcendent Mastery!"
Elder Chu glared at Wang Hao with annoyance, looking like he was disappointed in him.
" Elder Chu, please calm down. I just broke through to the next level and haven't had time to comprehend its mysteries yet!"
Wang Hao quickly picked up the wine jar and poured him another cup of fine wine, saying with a smile.
"Hmph! You should reflect more on your own state of mind in the future!"
With a cold snort, Elder Chu took a sip of his wine and continued his explanation, "A martial art involves many aspects, including an individual's physique, habits, environment, and most importantly, the influence of one's own personality."
The more similar a later practitioner is to the founder of a martial art, the more compatible they will be with that art. Conversely, the greater the difference, the less compatible they will be with the art, making their practice much more difficult and potentially causing them to get stuck at First Tier.
At this point, Elder Chu glanced at Wang Hao and said mysteriously, "You're quite lucky, kid. You actually gained the favor of that old fellow, the eighth generation Dugu Qiubai, who specially created a Foundation Building Sword Technique for you."
" Elder Chu, you noticed!"
Wang Hao scratched his head. He hadn't expected Elder Chu to have such a keen eye, directly recognizing that his Ten Stances of Bloody Battle were specially devised for him by Dugu Qiubai.
He was also curious about the so-called eighth generation of Dugu Qiubai, as this was the first time he had heard of such a claim.
However, this is understandable, considering that Dugu Qiubai appeared hundreds of years ago.
The other party is not an immortal god, so it is impossible for them to have survived to this day. Therefore, Dugu Qiubai should just be a name passed down from generation to generation. Dongfang Bai Bai's master is the eighth generation successor.
"A swordsman who can create a perfect foundation-building sword technique specifically for others must be a Sword Dao of the Xiantian Grandmaster. There are only a handful of Sword Dao Great Grandmaster in the entire world."
"When I was young, I fought a few rounds with that guy Dugu Qiubai. When you first came to the Martial Repository Pavilion and made your move, I could already tell it belonged to that old fellow."
At this point, Elder Chu sighed and said, "It's a pity that you succeeded because of this, and you also failed because of this. Dugu Qiubai's realm is too high. Even if you try your best to restrain yourself, you still left a strong influence in the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle. Although it allowed you to Spirit Refinement in the early stages, it increased the difficulty of breaking through to the Transformation Realm."
I originally thought that even with the support of your profound Sword Intent, it would take you at least three years to break through. Who would have thought you would be such a prodigy, breaking through today alone."
Elder Chu was at a loss for words when it came to this; it was the first time in his life he had misjudged someone.
This is absolutely unexpected!
" Elder Chu, you flatter me!"
With a shy smile, Wang Hao indicated that he was being very modest.
"So dramatic!"
Elder Chu rolled his eyes at Wang Hao's affected manner, and then continued to explain, "It is not difficult to cultivate a martial art to its Peak Perfection, as long as you practice hard. But it is difficult to break out of the original martial arts shackles and reach the realm of Transcendent Mastery."
Yi Li, talent, and opportunity are all indispensable!
Once you reach a state of Transcendent Mastery, you will completely erase the influence left by the original creator of the martial art and instead bear your own unique mark. From then on, the martial art will truly belong to you.
You have only just begun to break free from the constraints of your original swordsmanship. Based on the characteristics of the Ten Stances of Bloody Battle, you still need to undergo a fierce and brutal battle before you can truly imprint your own unique mark on the swordsmanship...
