Becoming a god begins with the evolution of acupoint supernatural powers.

"Sword stance!"

"This kid, with only the cultivation of Great Perfection of Flesh Refinement, has actually comprehended the essence of swordsmanship!"

"How is this possible? I investigated him; at most, he's only been practicing for a little over two months, and besides, I've never heard of him practicing swordsmanship before!"

Lu Ming's display of sword prowess caused a great stir among the powerful figures in the hall.

Liu Yiyi opened her mouth slightly, stunned. Lu Ming had actually comprehended the legendary sword technique?

That was a realm she never dared to imagine in her life, yet Lu Ming actually comprehended it at this moment.

No wonder, no wonder Lu Minglei was expelled from Tianji Pavilion by Wan Chun, yet he was still not afraid.

So that's why he had such confidence.

"Sword stance?!"

Liu Feilong's expression also changed slightly, and a hint of regret showed in his eyes as he looked at Lu Ming.

Whether it's sword stance or any other "stance," it belongs to the realm of martial arts geniuses!

In the entire Chiyun County, let alone truly understanding "momentum," there are very few people who have even touched the threshold of "momentum."

Lu Ming's ability to comprehend sword intent at this level of cultivation proves that he has truly earned his reputation as a genius.

From now on, calling Lu Ming a martial arts genius will no longer be a polite or flattering term, but a fact that even his enemies will have to admit.

At this moment, his heart was filled with complex emotions. Lu Ming had once visited the Flying Dragon Martial Arts Academy, hoping to become his son-in-law, but he had missed out on such a genius.

Marrying into the family? Such a genius would never marry into the family!

The ones who didn't know what was good for them back then weren't Lu Ming, but the Liu family.

Liu Feilong sighed, filled with regret.

Lei Wanchun, who had just sat back down, froze on the spot, utterly astonished.

Lu Ming actually comprehended the sword intent? How is that possible! How could he possibly be such a genius?

He quickly recalled that Qin Zhonghai had been heavily supporting Lu Ming and had a very high opinion of him.

He had never understood this until now, seeing Lu Ming shock the powerful figures of Chiyun County, he suddenly realized.

Qin Zhonghai must have known about this all along, which is why he was so certain that Lu Ming was a martial arts genius.

Qin Zhonghai didn't even inform him about this; he deserves to die!

Thinking about how he had just publicly expelled Lu Ming from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, his face instantly darkened to the point of being almost dripping with water.

After today, he will surely become a laughing stock in Chiyun County, and the Tianji Pavilion in the prefectural city might even send someone to question him.

He gritted his teeth. The die was cast, and there was no use in regretting it now. He simply closed his eyes expressionlessly and waited quietly for this scene to pass.

In the main hall, Lu Ming drew his sword, its power spreading unrestrained.

Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, he stood proudly, full of vigor, and slowly said:

"Chief Feng, you dare to discuss the quota of disciples from a third-rate sect in front of me?"

"Third-rate sect... Hmph!"

"Anyone who tries to force my friend into a marriage today will meet their demise the day I ascend to the main lineage!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the powerful figures changed slightly, especially those from Zhou Zhen's side, such as the Shen and Chen families, who supported the marriage alliance; their faces turned grim.

Chen Boxiong, the head of the Chen family, and Shen Wanlin, the head of the Shen family, exchanged a glance. Recalling their disdain for Lu Ming after the last competition for the red token, both of them felt a pang of regret.

Lu Ming didn't participate in the Genius Bait Project not because he was afraid, but because it was unnecessary!

Lu Ming's understanding of sword intent was completely different from that of ordinary martial arts disciples, who had to risk their lives to secure a future.

The failure of the "genius bait" plan, with six out of ten geniuses dying, proves that Lu Ming's approach was indeed correct.

They try to guess the thoughts of a true genius using their own ideas, and naturally, the slightest error will lead to a huge mistake.

In this way, they had already offended Lu Ming before and failed to resolve the issue in time. Today, by supporting this marriage alliance, they have offended him again.

If Lu Ming holds a grudge, they will be in danger when he grows up!

For a moment, both of them looked worried.

"The main lineage of Taoism..."

Shen Changfeng's face was the ugliest. He had just been preparing to cooperate with Feng Buping to take the opportunity to kill Lu Ming on the spot!

Unexpectedly, Lu Ming revealed his sword aura; his target was a major sect of the Dao lineage!

The great lineage of the Daoist sect is the dream of all disciples of the Martial Arts Department, but most disciples only dare to dream about it. However, Lu Ming now has a real opportunity to join!

At this moment, Shen Changfeng felt that his bright red clothes were extremely glaring. He should have been the protagonist today, but now he was made to look like a clown by Lu Ming.

I hate it!

Shen Changfeng roared inwardly, hating Lu Ming to the core. Shen Jue had died because of Lu Ming, and today, Lu Ming had ruined his arranged marriage.

If looks could kill, Lu Ming would have been torn to pieces by now, but he absolutely cannot move now.

He saw that after Lu Ming displayed his sword stance, Wei Jinlin, who was standing to the side, looked at Lu Ming with surprise and delight, and admired him greatly.

Wei Jinlin is the strongest person in Chiyun County. Now that Lu Ming has such outstanding talent, he will definitely step in to protect him.

At this moment, although Lu Ming had lost his identity as a secret agent of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, he had gained Wei Jinlin's absolute support and was no longer someone Wei Jinlin could control.

But after today, he and Lu Ming are now at odds. What will he do if Lu Ming gains power?

Shen Changfeng was filled with shock, pain, hatred, and helplessness; his expression was incredibly complex.

"How could this be...?"

Feng Buping froze, standing rooted to the spot.

Feng Qingzhu's friend Lu Ming actually has such talent?

Leaving aside the major sects, with Lu Ming's talent, he can at least enter a first-class sect. The cultivation elixirs he can obtain are far superior to those of the Lingyun Sect!

Originally, he might have had the opportunity to obtain such a powerful cultivation elixir.

However, now that Feng Qingzhu has severed ties with him, everything is beyond repair!

The powerful figures watched this scene with shock, regret, or amusement, while Feng Buping was at a loss for how to respond.

For a moment, an eerie silence fell over the hall.

Just then, a powerful figure who had been silent for a long time stepped forward, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

This man was a middle-aged man with a refined and scholarly demeanor and a ruddy complexion; he was none other than Zhou Zhen!

What is Zhou Zhen doing out here at this time?

Shouldn't he have pretended to be dead? After all, Lu Ming is gaining momentum, and Wei Jinlin is intentionally protecting him. If he were to speak out, he would definitely not get any credit.

The crowd's attention was drawn to Zhou Zhen. This man had been stirring up trouble recently, and today's marriage was orchestrated by him in an attempt to win over the Green Bamboo Gang and dominate Chiyun County.

His every move is under the public's attention.

His eyes flickered as he scrutinized Lu Ming from head to toe, then he suddenly said in a deep voice:

"Gentlemen, there are many suspicious points about this person."

"I heard that he did not practice martial arts before the age of eighteen, and only began to practice martial arts after joining the Military Service Department."

"As for learning swordsmanship, the earliest he started practicing was after the day he competed for the red token and someone gave him that sword."

"Is it possible that he could master swordsmanship in just seven days?"

"Such a peerless genius is something I have never heard of in Lingyun Sect."

"It is very likely that he had already cultivated the sword technique before, but kept it a secret."

"He is a commoner with no experience in martial arts training from the major powers in the city, yet he has secretly cultivated a sword style, which must be due to guidance from a master."

"Under normal circumstances, it would be fine; hiding one's talents is not a sin."

"But unfortunately, it was because of him that the genius bait plan was ruined today. He seemingly accidentally lured Wei Sizheng away, which led to Wei Sizheng being ambushed by the mysterious powerhouse and the earth dragon beast."

"Aren't these a bit too many coincidences?"
