At this moment.
Upon hearing Ji Changfeng's words, a hint of surprise appeared on Su Ru's graceful and beautiful face.
"Changfeng, you're only at the first level of the Jade Clarity Realm..."
Su Ru had initially wanted to decline.
After all, Ji Changfeng was only at the first level of the Jade Clarity Realm currently, and he should be focusing on 'improving his cultivation'.
However, Ji Changfeng's next words shocked everyone.
"Reporting to Shiniang, this disciple has already advanced to the second level of the Jade Clarity Realm today," Ji Changfeng said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Su Ru was stunned.
"What?"
"You..."
"You've reached the second level of the Jade Clarity Realm?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, Su Ru flashed.
She instantly appeared beside Ji Changfeng and placed her slender, jade-like hand on his shoulder.
Boom—
Cool spiritual power entered the body.
A look of surprise immediately appeared on Su Ru's face.
Jade Clarity Realm, second level! Indeed, it was the second level of the Jade Clarity Realm!
"Good! Good! Good!"
Su Ru said with joy, "Since you have already stepped into the second level of Jade Clarity, I will compete with you."
At this moment.
The surrounding fellow disciples came back to their senses one after another.
"Second level of Jade Clarity? Hiss—"
"Seventh Junior Brother has only been cultivating for less than half a month, right?"
"He's already reached the second level of the Jade Clarity Realm in less than half a month?"
"This…"
"This is practically Ancestor Qingye reborn!"
"I'm afraid even Ancestor Qingye's talent isn't as good as our Seventh Junior Brother's, right?!"
Song Daren and the others were discussing amongst themselves.
Tian Linger opened her mouth wide, looking at Ji Changfeng in astonishment.
Second level of the Jade Clarity Realm?
So, he broke through just like that?
Is this what a true, freakishly talented genius is like?!
Zhang Xiaofan's heart was also filled with disbelief.
He had been diligently cultivating the Taiji Xuanqing Dao for the past half month, but...
...there was still no response.
Actually, Zhang Xiaofan's aptitude wasn't that bad.
It was just that due to his prior dual cultivation of both Buddhist and Daoist practices, his cultivation progress was relatively slow...
But slow had its advantages.
At the very least, Zhang Xiaofan's foundation could be considered exceptionally solid.
Late bloomer.
That's the one.
"Come on, come on! Let's bet!"
At this moment, Du Bishu's gambling itch flared up again. He called out to the surrounding junior brothers and said, "How many moves do you think the seventh junior brother can last against Shiniang?"
"I bet Ji Changfeng can't even last one move!" Tian Linger said first.
The next moment.
The surrounding junior brothers immediately placed their bets: "I bet three moves!"
"Then I'll bet on four moves..."
At this moment.
Just as Song Daren and the others were placing their bets.
Ji Changfeng casually picked up a twig from the side and bowed towards Su Ru, saying: "Esteemed Teacher's Wife, your disciple has recently comprehended a sword technique."
"I humbly request your guidance!"
"A sword technique?" Hearing this, Su Ru was slightly surprised.
But she didn't say much.
Or rather…
She didn't think Ji Changfeng could comprehend any profound sword techniques, probably just a child flailing around a bit? And then thinking it was a sword technique?
"Xiao Qi, you go first." Su Ru smiled gently.
"Be careful, Shiniang."
Hearing this, Ji Changfeng didn't hesitate.
"Whoosh—"
He saw that he held a tree branch and slashed gently.
Instantly!
An astonishing sword intent burst forth from his body.
Two Sleeves Green Snake!
Green Snake Sword Intent!
Ssslaash——
The sword intent exuded an aura of destruction, like a green snake dancing gracefully as it slashed towards Su Ru.
"Hmm?!"
Seeing this, Su Ru was shocked.
She had originally wanted to suppress her strength and spar with Ji Changfeng.
But…
Once this sword appeared, how could she still think of suppressing her strength?!
Su Ru quickly raised the branch in her hand and swung it down.
Boom!
Two sword auras collided with each other.
Immediately, a powerful wave of energy surged outwards.
After one exchange.
The twig in Su Ru's hand had completely shattered.
After all, it was just an ordinary object.
How could it withstand the flow of magic?
At this moment.
Su Ru no longer had the heart to continue the spar.
She looked at Ji Changfeng with a face full of astonishment and said, "Changfeng, this swordsmanship..."
"You figured it out?!"
"Indeed." Ji Changfeng nodded slightly, his tone quite calm as he said, "Master's wife, this sword is called - Two Sleeves Green Snake."
"Two Sleeves Green Snake?"
Hearing such an elegant name, Su Ru couldn't help but be stunned.
A moment later, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.
"Good! Good!"
"Good name! Good swordsmanship!"
"Thump—"
Just then, footsteps echoed from the Hall of Quietude.
Tian Buyi emerged, his hands clasped behind his back.
He surveyed his wife, Su Ru, whose face was alight with surprise, and the bewildered expressions of the disciples. He frowned slightly.
"What's all the commotion about?"
Su Ru turned to him, her voice filled with excitement. "Buyi, Changfeng has created a sword technique!!"
"A sword technique?" Tian Buyi was taken aback.
His first thought was that the boy was just fooling around, swinging his sword a few times and calling it a technique.
But…
If that were the case, would Su Ru be this excited?!
Of course not.
Tian Buyi's expression gradually became serious. He looked at Ji Changfeng with anticipation and said:
"Seventh, show me? Let me see how powerful it is?"
"Yes, Master." Ji Changfeng nodded slightly.
"Shua——"
He lightly swung the branch in his hand.
The next moment.
A pure sword intent burst forth.
Green Snake Sword Intent!
The sword intent, like a ferocious green snake, lunged towards Tian Buyi.
Seeing this, Tian Buyi's expression shifted slightly.
He was surprised to discover that Ji Changfeng seemed to have broken through to the second layer of the Jade Clarity Realm?
"Whoosh—"
With a flick of his sleeve, he extinguished the Green Snake Sword Intent.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Tian Buyi said three consecutive "good"s.
His expression was unusually excited as he asked, "Does this sword technique have a name?"
Ji Changfeng was about to speak.
Su Ru, who was standing beside him, quickly interjected, "Two Sleeves Green Snake!"
"Green Snake? Two Sleeves Green Snake?"
Tian Buyi nodded thoughtfully, "A good name! A good sword technique!"
How to put it?
In Tian Buyi's opinion, this sword technique, Two Sleeves Green Snake, was not inferior to any of the Qingyun Sect's Daoist techniques.
With Ji Changfeng's cultivation at the second level of the Jade Clarity Realm, the power displayed could rival that of someone at the fourth level. This alone showed the potential of Two Sleeves Green Snake...
Of course.
But that's not even the most crucial part.
What is the most crucial part? This sword technique was created by a disciple at the Jade Clarity Realm, second level!
What kind of comprehension is this? What kind of talent is this!?
Tian Buyi looked at Ji Changfeng with fiery eyes.
He was truly becoming more and more satisfied with this disciple. Leaving aside his natural talent, his comprehension was also so outstanding?! A mere second level Jade Clarity Realm cultivation.
And he could create such a peerless sword technique?
If he were to grow up...
That would make him the next Ancestor Qingye?!
At this moment, the surrounding senior and junior brothers were completely dumbfounded.
What the hell? Self-created sword technique?! And he received the approval of his master and mistress? Our seventh junior brother…
He's truly a monster!
Several senior and junior brothers looked at each other.
At the same time, they also felt a little joy.
Their seventh junior brother was so powerful.
Then, wouldn't their mistress stop constantly testing them in the future?
"Having Junior Brother Seven take the assessment alone is enough!"
"Seventh, your swordplay…"
Just then, Tian Buyi seemed to have thought of something, and he hesitated, wanting to say something.
Seeing this, Ji Changfeng understood.
He smiled faintly and spoke…
