Martial Master

Buzz buzz buzz!

Under everyone's gaze, the first, second, and third silver swords flickered to life, and then with a hum, the fourth sword also lit up.

"That's ninety-four!"

The crowd was stunned; with ninety-four, Ye Wuming had broken the record that had stood for over a thousand years regarding the Demon Sword inheritance.

This was an unprecedented achievement, shocking to everyone.

What was even more astonishing was that after activating ninety-four swords, Ye Wuming showed no sign of stopping.

Ninety-five swords!

Ninety-six swords!

Finally, upon reaching ninety-six, Ye Wuming came to a halt, exhaling a long breath as if he were weakened.

A total of ninety-six swords shone brilliantly before him, forming a stunning scene, with countless sword energies crisscrossing through the skies.

Heavens!

Everyone covered their heads, their mouths agape, unable to utter a word.

Ninety-six swords!

This created history; previously, the most anyone had achieved were the likes of Ling Jianhuang, Leng Xingfeng, and Chen Sisi, who had lit up ninety-three swords.

But now, Ye Wuming from the Qingyun Sword Sect had directly broken that record, pushing it to ninety-six.

Never before seen!

This represented a vast difference between Ye Wuming and Leng Xingfeng in their comprehension of sword Dao, indicating that he had absolutely surpassed a level.

How could there be such a terrifying genius in this world?

"Brother Qin, I shall take my leave first," Ye Wuming turned to Qin Chen, giving a slight bow before stepping into the sword Dao, instantly disappearing.

Brother Qin?

Many geniuses on the cliff turned to look at Qin Chen. Did Ye Wuming just greet this guy? Who was this person that even Ye Wuming treated with such respect?

While they had learned from the square that Ye Wuming was from the Qingyun Sword Sect and saw Ye Wuming speaking for Qin Chen as they stood together, the crowd had not paid much attention to Qin Chen.

But now, with Ye Wuming addressing Qin Chen twice, they couldn't help but wonder about Qin Chen's background that could earn him such regard from Ye Wuming.

Geniuses always associate with geniuses; this young man, seemingly around twenty, must either have some connection to Ye Wuming or possess extraordinary talent, otherwise, why would Ye Wuming value him so highly?

"Qin Chen, I’m coming!"

Seeing Ye Wuming light up ninety-six swords, You Qianxue immediately felt a surge of battle intent.

She was eager to know how far she could go.

With a flicker of her figure, she stepped forward, her long skirt clinging to her perfect body curve as the gentle wind brushed against her.

This made everyone on the scene widen their eyes, unable to pull their gazes away.

She was a stunning beauty not inferior to Chen Sisi of the Heavenly Maiden Gate, her aura even surpassing it.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz...

Like Ye Wuming, You Qianxue activated her sword intent, and in an instant, ninety swords lit up simultaneously.

"What, where did this beauty come from? Her speed is not slower than Ye Wuming's."

"My heavens, could she also be a supreme expert in sword Dao?"

"What on earth is happening?"

The crowd was almost going mad, unable to believe their eyes.

Some martial artists who initially held feelings for You Qianxue were now left in shock, completely losing their previous thoughts.

This was a peerless genius not weaker than Chen Sisi; how could they possibly pursue her?

After ninety ordinary swords lit up, the first silver sword followed suit without any pause.

Then, the second, third, fourth!

By the time she reached the fourth sword, her speed evidently slowed, as if she had reached her limit.

"That's about right; with You Qianxue's cultivation, activating around ninety-four swords is reasonable. After all, she was born in the impoverished Five Kingdoms and had too little exposure to sword Dao manuals."

Qin Chen sighed.

With You Qianxue's talent, had she been born in the Martial Domain or Qingyun Sword Sect, she undoubtedly would have become a sword expert not weaker than Ye Wuming.

But she was born in the most barren area of the Five Kingdoms, where there were hardly any good teachers or remarkable sword manuals and insights. Though her cultivation had skyrocketed after meeting him, compensating for her weak foundation was not something that could be achieved overnight.
