Chapter 269 Sword Intent

Chapter 269: Chapter 269 Sword Intent

Only by reaching the rank of Earth Martial Master could he have the strength to contend with the Sixth Prince.

At the very least, after becoming an Earth Martial Master, he won’t be easily killed by the other party.

The Sixth Prince left.

The entire plaza remained silent.

All of this was too shocking.

Lin Feng made a desperate counterattack, displaying an invincible fighting power and killed Nangong Linjue.

The Sixth Prince made a powerful move to suppress Lin Feng, and the Iron Spear Divine Marquis intervened to stop him.

All of this added a legendary color to this grand competition.

"Senior Brother, are you all right?"

Lin Feng walked up to Wang Hui and asked with concern.

Wang Hui cracked a slight smile and said, "I’m fine, it’s just a minor injury!"

"That’s good!"

Lin Feng nodded and then looked towards the Iron Spear Divine Marquis.

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis gave him a glance, nodded slightly, and then announced that the competition would continue.

There were only a few battles left in the entire ranking competition,

The shattered battle platform was quickly cleared up, turning it into a makeshift battlefield.

The battles ended swiftly.

Lin Feng still had one battle left, his opponent being Duan Bingye.

As expected, Duan Bingye conceded.

If even Nangong Linjue was no match for Lin Feng, she certainly stood no chance against him.

From then on, Lin Feng won all his battles.

The first place was already a sure thing.

After all the battles ended, rankings were determined based on wins and losses.

"Now announcing the rankings of the top ten disciples of this competition!"

The Great Elder stood up and announced loudly.

However, the Great Elder’s face twitched incessantly.

Because, it was said to be the top ten Outer Sect disciples, but now only seven remained.

The Great Elder cast a distant glance at Lin Feng, and sighed inwardly.

This youth’s talent and combat power are simply defying the heavens; if he did not know that the other was a disciple of the Iron Spear Divine Marquis, he would have even considered taking him as his own disciple.

At the same time, the Great Elder also felt a pang of pain.

Nangong Linjue, Li Jiantong, Yi Xiaoguang, and even He Yangjun, each one of them was a rare genius. It was truly a pity that they died just like that!

"First place, Lin Feng!"

"Second place, Duan Bingye!"

"Third place, Ling Muchen!"

"Fourth place, Fei Kuang!"

"Fifth place, Lu Shaoyun!"

"Sixth place, Wu Meng!"

"Seventh place, Mei Ling!"

After the Great Elder finished announcing the rankings, the disciples on the plaza sighed incessantly.

Lin Feng achieved first place, becoming the top individual of the Outer Sect, something no one had anticipated before.

"Now to distribute the rewards for this Outer Sect competition. All disciples who made it into the top one hundred of the finals have rewards. From eleventh to one hundredth place, each disciple is awarded ten thousand Contribution Points; from fourth to... ahem! From fourth to seventh place, awarded twenty thousand Contribution Points; second and third place, awarded thirty thousand Contribution Points; first place is awarded fifty thousand Contribution Points. Moreover, the top seven finalists will also have the opportunity to cultivate in the Spirit Pond for one day. Tomorrow morning, you seven will gather at the Outer Sect Great Hall."

As the Great Elder finished announcing, the surrounding disciples immediately cast envious, jealous, and resentful glances towards Lin Feng and the other top seven.

"The top seven not only receive Contribution Points as a reward, but also the opportunity to cultivate in the Spirit Pond, how enviable!"

"It is said that cultivating for one day in the Spirit Pond is equivalent to cultivating for a month, I wonder if it’s true!"

"It must be true. If luck is on our side, a direct breakthrough in cultivation is possible!"

Everyone was discussing fervently, their faces full of envy.

After that, the disciples who won the awards collected their prizes, and the crowd began to leave the square.

Since the competition, Lin Feng’s name has thoroughly resounded throughout the Divine Wind Camp, known to all.

For a Sixth Generation Disciple to clinch first place was like a dream, and many people still felt as if they were not yet awake.

In a short time, all conversations amongst the disciples revolved around Lin Feng.

And Lin Feng, after the competition, followed the Iron Spear Divine Marquis to his residence.

"Lin Feng, I must say, your talent far exceeds my expectations!"

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis was smiling faintly, growing more and more satisfied with Lin Feng as he observed him.

"However, you have offended the Sixth Prince. I reckon the Dynasty will not let this go easily, you must be very careful in the future! You should know, relying on his talent, the Sixth Prince doesn’t even consider me, an Imperial Uncle, in his eyes."

The smile on the Iron Spear Divine Marquis’s face faded as he spoke solemnly.

"Master, what exactly is the Sixth Prince’s cultivation level?"

Lin Feng inquired, eager to understand the exact strength of the Sixth Prince.

Only then would he have a clear target to swiftly catch up to.

"A few months ago, he just broke through to the Earth Martial Master Second Layer realm!"

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis pondered for a moment and continued, "However, with his exceptional talent, the Sixth Prince’s true combat power is comparable to an Earth Martial Master at the Fourth Layer. Many instructors at the Divine Wind Camp are no match for him!"

"Earth Martial Master Second Layer?"

Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he thought to himself, within half a year, I must reach the Earth Martial Master realm.

If others knew about Lin Feng’s thoughts, they would certainly think he was dreaming.

In half a year’s time, to advance from Great Martial Master Fifth Layer to Earth Martial Master, not a single person in the thousands of years of Hu Ben Country’s history had ever achieved this feat.

"Lin Feng, your talent is not much inferior to that of the Sixth Prince. Your top priority now should be to diligently cultivate and rapidly enhance your own strength!"

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis reminded him, "Also, you should keep a low profile from now on and avoid direct conflicts with the Dynasty."

"Understood!"

Lin Feng nodded.

He knew that the Iron Spear Divine Marquis was considering his best interests.

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis continued, "The power of the Dynasty is not too significant yet, and they all obey the Sixth Prince alone, you need to be even more cautious and prudent."

Lin Feng nodded again.

"Alright, let’s not talk about that. Now, I am quite curious about the state of your cultivation!"

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis asked with a faint smile, "When did you comprehend Sword Intent?"

"Just a few months ago."

Lin Feng replied.

"How much do you understand about Sword Intent?"

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis asked further.

Lin Feng shook his head and said with a fist-clasped bow, "Please enlighten me, Master!"

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis nodded and started to slowly explain.

"Sword Intent is one kind of the Martial Arts Will. The Martial Arts Will varies in levels and strength, divided into nine ranks, and each rank is further divided into the Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Perfection."

"All Martial Arts Wills have their own attributes, such as Fire Intent, Thunder Will, and many other unique Martial Arts Wills!"

"The Sword Intent that you have comprehended is the Wind Sword Intent, and its level is at the entry stage of the First Rank Early Stage."

"The higher the level of the Martial Arts Will, the greater the boost to one’s combat power. If you want to improve the level of your Sword Intent, you must Understand the Sword, and also Understand the Wind!"

"The stronger your understanding of wind, the more powerful your Sword Intent will be!"

"..."

The Iron Spear Divine Marquis explained in great detail, elaborating loads of information about Martial Arts Will.

Lin Feng listened very attentively, treasuring the knowledge as if it was priceless!

He had always practiced alone without guidance, and his understanding of Sword Intent was completely in the dark.
