My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"Let's go, Elder Cheng has already gone to make preparations. I'll take you to see the Knife Wall first!"

After watching Cheng Yanqiu walk away, Feng Jitong's gaze returned to Jiang Xiaobai: "Perfect timing, the Sword-Viewing Wall isn't far from here!"

"good!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and followed Feng Jitong away.

……

"This is the Sword-Viewing Wall!"

After a stick of incense had burned, the group arrived at a huge stone wall under Feng Jitong's guidance.

Here you can see five people sitting cross-legged, their eyes fixed on the stone wall.

They were obviously selected after passing the previous assessment.

After glancing over the area, Jiang Xiaobai's gaze fell on the stone wall.

This stone wall is several tens of feet high, and its surface is covered with marks of varying depths.

These traces, mixed together, looked very messy.

Jiang Xiaobai stood there, watching for a while, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

I don’t understand it at all!!

"What exactly is being observed on this 'Knife-Viewing Wall'?"

Jiang Xiaobai looked at Feng Jitong and couldn't help but say something.

"Look at the intention of the sword!"

Feng Jitong said, "These marks were left by masters throughout history."

"Some people can grasp the techniques, others can grasp the movement!"

"How exactly it works ultimately depends on individual talent and understanding!"

"..."

After hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai looked up again for a moment, but finally shook his head with a wry smile.

It seems he really doesn't have that talent.

"Sigh, forget it, let's just go!"

Jiang Xiaobai sighed, turned around, and said, "This thing has no affinity with me!"

"Continuing to watch is a waste of time!"

That's right, if you don't understand it, you don't understand it. There's no point in wasting time here.

Feng Jitong couldn't help but chuckle twice.

Those who manage to get in here would love to stay for as long as possible.

Jiang Xiaobai, on the other hand, has only been watching for a short while, and he's already getting ready to leave?

However, just as Feng Jitong followed, he suddenly noticed something and couldn't help but let out a soft "Eh."

Ok?

Jiang Xiaobai turned his head and glanced at it.

Chen Jian stood in front of the stone wall, his legs slightly apart, his hands in front of and behind him, striking a strange pose.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Jian slowly pushed out his left hand and made a fist with his right hand. As he pulled and released his fist, his feet also moved.

"I almost forgot!!"

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned for a moment when he saw Chen Jian's performance, then burst into laughter: "I'm no good!"

"But Brother Chen's martial arts talent is unmatched by ordinary people!!"

That's right, all the theories he mentioned could become reality in Chen Jian's hands.

One can imagine how terrifying Chen Jian's martial arts talent is.

"His comprehension is truly remarkable!"

Feng Jitong looked at Chen Jian with amazement on his face.

"hehe!"

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled twice, then looked at Feng Jitong and said, "Then let Brother Chen stay here and continue observing!"

"Let's go to the archives!"

"this……"

Feng Jitong opened his mouth, but ultimately let out a sigh: "Alright then!"

According to the rules, the reward for observing the sword wall is for Jiang Xiaobai.

But thinking of Chu Qingci, Feng Jitong swallowed back what he was about to say.

There's no way around it; whatever Jiang Xiaobai says now, their sect leader will nod in agreement.

So it's better not to say anything!

After glancing at Chen Jian one last time, Feng Jitong led Jiang Xiaobai and the others away from Guandaobi.

On their way back, they happened to pass by the place known as the "Number One Knife in the World".

From a distance, a dozen or so disciples of the Cangfeng Sect were carrying firewood up the stone platform, while others were carrying wooden buckets below.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled when he saw this.

Putting everything else aside, the efficiency of the Hidden Peak Sect is quite high.

"Kid!"

Feng Jitong followed Jiang Xiaobai's gaze and chuckled, "If you really rely on this method to draw the number one sword in the world!"

"Heh, I could take you to another place!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai immediately became interested.

Xiao Yunshu seemed to have guessed something, paused slightly, and looked at Feng Jitong, saying, "Old Feng, can you make that decision?"

"Can!"

Feng Jitong smiled faintly and said, "However, we should wait until this kid draws his knife first!"

Jiang Xiaobai listened, his curiosity growing, and immediately looked at Xiao Yunshu: "What kind of place is it?"

"There is actually an unexplored area within the Hidden Edge Sect!"

Xiao Yunshu said, "It's said that the first sect leader hid a secret manual there!"

"But despite repeated attempts by successive sect leaders and Elder Tian to enter, they have never discovered where the secret manual is hidden!"

"A secret technique?"

Jiang Xiaobai's eyes lit up slightly, then she asked curiously, "Have you been there? What's it like inside?"

"I……"

Just as Xiao Yunshu was about to answer, she suddenly realized, "Oh, young master, I'm just a little maid!"

"How could I possibly have ever been to such a secluded place as the Hidden Edge Sect!"

"..."

Jiang Xiaobai was speechless.

How can you know so much about something you've never been there?

Feng Jitong, who was standing nearby, also shook his head.

It's really unbearable to look at!

He still can't understand why their deputy sect leader, with such a noble status, would end up working as a maid for Jiang Xiaobai.

Although he was curious, Feng Jitong didn't dare to ask too many questions and could only continue leading the way in silence.

This journey was a bit longer; the group followed the mountain path for half an hour before finally arriving at a pavilion.

The pavilion was built halfway up the mountain, and a plaque hung above the door with the two large characters "Collection" written on it.

In front of the attic door, an old man was slowly sweeping the floor with a broom.

The old man was dressed in gray cloth clothes and had gray hair.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai slowed down.

An elderly person sweeping the floor?

Moreover, he's the janitor of the treasure trove?

hiss!

Jiang Xiaobai gasped, then immediately cupped his hands in greeting to the old man, saying, "Senior, I apologize for disturbing you!"

Upon hearing the voice, the old man looked up at Jiang Xiaobai, responded softly, and then continued sweeping the floor.

"Mr. Feng, who is this...?"

Jiang Xiaobai moved closer to Feng Jitong and asked in a low voice.

"Oh, he's just an ordinary janitor!"

Feng Jitong said casually.

hiss!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai's eyes widened, and his gaze towards the old man instantly changed.

That's right, the more ordinary something is, the more extraordinary it is!

"Senior, let me sweep for you!"

As they were talking, Jiang Xiaobai took the initiative to walk up to them.

"No, no!"

The old man waved his hand and continued with his own business.

"Senior, how many years have you been sweeping here?"

Jiang Xiaobai asked casually.

"this……"

The old man paused, then shook his head and said, "Alas, it's too long; I can't remember it anymore!"

Jiang Xiaobai was instantly energized.

You can't even remember the year?

A master!

This person is definitely a master!

Immediately, Jiang Xiaobai's face broke into a smile, and he moved closer to the old man, saying, "Senior, do you need any more disciples?"

"How about I become your apprentice?!"
