Wan Jian returns to his clan!

Chapter 93 Self-Sacrifice Sword Technique, Dreams Come True

Upon seeing Senior Sister Xiaolan, who was panting heavily from helping him cultivate the "Golden Robe," he was almost unable to stick out his tongue. Steam rose from his head, and sweat streamed down his cheeks like a small stream.

Lu Wubing was moved and said softly, "Thank you for helping me, Senior Sister. How about we let Seventh Senior Sister do it next time? She is strong and powerful. This kind of physical work won't tire her out."

"I'm not tired at all."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Lan immediately flew into a rage, wielding her ironwood stick and laughing, "Two more hours won't be a problem at all."

That's what she said, but Ouyang Lan knew in her heart that in terms of physical strength, she couldn't catch up with her seventh senior sister even if she tried.

It seems I can't slack off in evening classes either; I have to get back to practicing Dragon Tendon Tiger Bone Fist, otherwise I won't even have the right to practice with my junior brother.

Hearing Senior Sister Xiaolan's stubbornness, Lu Wubing smiled but didn't expose her. He changed the subject, saying, "Previously, Senior Sister used a staff as a sword, unleashing a series of four attack moves: [Point], [Thrust], [Chop], and [Slash], all of which reached the [Outstanding] level. One should look at a person with new eyes after three days. Senior Sister's progress is astonishingly fast!"

These words struck a nerve with Ouyang Lan.

She waited half the night, she kept waiting.

She grinned from ear to ear: "Right, junior brother? When we practice swordsmanship, I always try not to discourage you. I actually hold back a bit of my strength in these moves. If I were to go all out, I'm so strong that even I'm afraid of myself."

"Oh……"

Lu Wubing gave a half-smile, thinking, "Senior Sister's gotten too cocky."

Fortunately, it hasn't gone too far.

Because she also knew to add, "Of course, if Junior Brother uses that move, 'White Rainbow Piercing the Sun,' then Senior Sister will have no choice but to admit defeat, hehe..."

"So, Senior Sister has mastered all 'Thirteen Deadly Swords' of the Heavenly Star Technique to the same level?"

Lu Wubing was genuinely surprised.

What kind of motivation could make such a lazy person become so diligent?
Could it be that going down the mountain for training would have such great effects?

He recalled what Senior Sister Shen Xinzhu of Jin Yutang had once said: "Senior Sister Ouyang's foundation is so solid that none of the six generations of disciples of Tianxing Sect can surpass her."

However, because of her lively and playful nature, she wasn't particularly enthusiastic about practicing martial arts. As a result, she was surpassed by her fellow disciples in swordsmanship.

However, she is easygoing by nature and doesn't mind.

He'd never won a sword fight, but he'd never lost a verbal battle.

When Lu Wubing heard this, he almost burst out laughing.

Because he understood what was really going on with Senior Sister Xiaolan.

He has never won a sword fight—(mostly it ends in a draw).

He never lost an argument—(it was all bragging).

So no matter what Senior Sister Xiaolan said, Lu Wubing just smiled and didn't refute her, letting her brag.

Anyway, when faced with a real enemy, she is better at recognizing the situation than anyone else and will not delay things.

Being stubborn is just being stubborn; if you brag to the point that you believe it yourself, then you're truly foolish.

As for Senior Sister Xiaolan, she's not stupid at all.

Ouyang Lan's eyebrows almost flew off as she asked in surprise, "Junior Brother, how did you know that I'm almost at the breakthrough stage in several of the Yao Guang Sword's ultimate techniques? I'm just one step away from it all."

Did I ask?

I don't know...

Lu Wubing was dumbfounded, his expression slightly stunned, and he immediately chimed in: "That's a really great thing. If you can master a few of the Yaoguang Sword's killing moves, you can easily kill Chen Sanyang of Chaoyang Village in a one-on-one fight. You can even entangle and restrain the Yin Yang Monk [Deng Hua] from that day and hold him off."

Although those two had great strength and heavy moves, they hadn't really mastered their martial arts skills to a very high level.

They are just bullying the weak by relying on their physical strength and cultivation.

The so-called proficiency, mastery, mastery, perfection...

This is generally a shortened term used by martial arts practitioners for convenience. In the martial arts world, there is also a more formal term for the level of martial arts mastery:

Those are: [entering the inner sanctum], [standing out from the crowd], [mastering the craft], and [reaching the pinnacle].

Mastering a sword technique to the point of proficiency, which is the realm of "outstanding," makes one an exceptional genius among the younger generation, a standout among them.

Leaving aside other sects.

Before Lu Wubing joined the sect, only the eldest brother Yue Lingfeng on Tianxing Peak had reached such a level.

If the opponent has not mastered the martial arts to the [Outstanding] level, but has only reached the [Entry-level] level, then he can fight against the opponent who is three ranks higher.

Martial arts skills are a very practical thing.

The next level up, the power will be much greater...

The destructive power of their attacks, their application of strength, their control of distance, and even their ability to use an opponent's force against them and to counter their moves—they all have a significant advantage.

It can offset the opponent's disadvantages in strength and speed, allowing the weak to defeat the strong.

Of course, strength and weakness are always relative.

It's just a matter of who has the most chips...

You are faster than me, I am stronger than you, your moves are exquisite, but I have seen through your tricks and laid a deadly trap in advance!
In a true life-or-death struggle, a person's cultivation level and the number of meridians they have opened are not the sole determinants of victory or defeat.

Those who stand up win everything; those who lie down lose their lives.

"Yes, yes, finally I can get rid of the feeling of being completely exhausted every time I use [Yaoguang Powder]. It hurts myself before I can hurt others. After using a move, I have to lie in bed for three days. It's really not a good feeling."

Therefore, Lu Wubing understood.

Why didn't Senior Sister Xiaolan come to find me to practice swordsmanship during the few days I was on the mountain?

She's been injured.

With this thought swirling in his mind, Lu Wubing's eyes flickered slightly. Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and exclaimed with delight, "I've long heard that the Seven Star Sword of our Heavenly Star Sect is extremely dangerous and has endless uses. I wonder if I could witness Senior Sister's Yao Guang Sword?"

The Yao Guang Sword, also known as the Po Jun Sword.

A sword drawn is a life-or-death struggle, with no chance of survival...

It is a famously self-sacrificing sword technique.

When Ouyang Lan used it in her daily life, she did not grasp its essence.

To put it bluntly, it only captured the form, not the spirit...

It looks glamorous and beautiful, but it's actually quite superficial.

If you encounter someone unfamiliar with this sword technique, you can actually gain an advantage.

In a true life-or-death battle, her Yao Guang sword would only serve as a distraction. To truly defeat her enemy, she would need to devise another plan.

Out of habit, when she sparred with Lu Wubing, she mostly used the Thirteen Deadly Swords.

That's why she improved her basic sword techniques very quickly.

It was faster than expected.

I doubt even she knows how she made the progress.

Hearing Senior Sister Xiaolan showing off her progress, Lu Wubing became interested and thought to himself, "Senior Sister is working so hard, how can I not lend her a hand?"
May she make every boast she made a comeback.

This is truly a welcome and welcome development.
