Chapter 158 (2/2)
As he stood there gazing at the Saber Forest, he muttered inwardly, ”The saber master that once stayed here had most likely intentionally left the slash behind. It wasn't a slash left after gaining a new comprehension. He had probably reached the saber steering phase at that time. What a remarkable saber master.”
At this time, Luo Yongcheng arrived with a group of people. There were young and old among them, but there weren't many of them. In total, only about a few dozen people were brought over.
For an academy, this was quite a low number of people to gather. Xiang Shaoyun originally a.s.sumed that he was supposed to hold a lesson to everyone in the academy, but looking at the crowd before him, that did not seem to be the case.
”Brother Xiang, this is the princ.i.p.al, these two are the vice princ.i.p.als...” Luo Yongcheng started introducing the people in an enthusiastic manner.
Xiang Shaoyun stepped forward and humbly greeted them one by one. No matter what, he was still a second-stage Transformation Realm cultivator. Thus, it was still not the time for him to put on airs.
”Haha, what a fine young hero. I never expected the person who had accepted the Redwolf Bandit bounty to be a young hero like you. You have even comprehended the saber intent here. Looks like we are truly getting old,” said the princ.i.p.al.
The princ.i.p.al was a slim old man. As an eighth-stage Transformation Realm cultivator, he was the strongest expert in the Green Bamboo Academy.
”You are too kind, princ.i.p.al. I need to thank your academy for giving me this opportunity,” Xiang Shaoyun said. He then broached the main topic, ”So shall we start now?”
”Sure!” the princ.i.p.al agreed. He then turned and spoke to the people behind him. ”Everyone, sit properly and listen well. This is the young hero who has comprehended the saber intent in the Saber Forest. He is going to share with us his experience in comprehending the saber intent.”
Everyone was looking at Xiang Shaoyun with complicated gazes. The young man before them was not a disciple of their academy, yet he was the one who had managed to grasp the opportunity waiting right in their academy. They were envious and regretful at the same time.
Suddenly, a voice rang out, ”I refuse to believe he has comprehended the saber intent. Unless he can prove it in front of us, we will have a hard time believing him.”
The speaker was a middle-aged man with a medium build. He was also a Transformation Realm cultivator and was an elder of the Green Bamboo Academy.
”Eighth brother, look here. These are the cuts left by Brother Xiang. What is there to not believe?” Luo Yongcheng said gloomily.
”Hmph. How are the cuts sufficient to be proof?” the eighth elder snorted coldly. He then looked at the others and said, ”Everyone, don't be afraid to voice your thoughts. Should we get him to demonstrate what he has comprehended? It would be way too embarra.s.sing if we end up tricked by a young man like this.”
With the eighth elder fanning the flame, the others started voicing their agreement. They demanded that Xiang Shaoyun demonstrate what he had learned. They would only be willing to listen to his lesson if they were convinced by his demonstration.
”Princ.i.p.al...” Luo Yongcheng looked to the princ.i.p.al, requesting for help with his eyes.
But before the princ.i.p.al could say anything, Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, ”Sure. Since that is the case, why don't we exchange a few pointers, elder. You will then be able to personally sense the existence of the saber intent. Who knows, you might even learn something from it!”
Xiang Shaoyun was not one to say no to free target practice.
