Chapter 64 (2/2)

Seeing how the master-disciple pair’s conversation was brimming with killing intent, the Headmaster, standing at the side could only laugh bitterly yet again. “The two of you… really know how to bring me trouble. Don’t tell me you guys really intend to kill Rebecca?”

Huang Lin coldly stated, “This kind of trash is merely a small hurdle my disciple met on his path. She’s nothing to be concerned with even in a few years’ time, but if she doesn’t keep herself in check, I will immediately slaughter my way to the Tresia Clan.”

The Headmaster was helpless with Huang Lin’s temper, and could only turn his head to look at Fang Xingjian, talking to him in an amiable manner. “Fang Xingjian, you… have really completed your job transition and have become a Windstorm Sword Hero?” As he said this, excitement could be seem gleaming in his eyes.

The instructors, teachers and students at the side also curiously turned their heads in their direction. When Huang Lin and Rebecca had crossed blows earlier, their attention had already been drawn to that direction. However, how could they dare to come closer when two experts were in combat.

Now that the battle was over, after hearing the Headmaster’s question, everyone turned to look at Fang Xingjian.

Fang Xingjian smiled slightly. Suddenly, his legs turned blurry as he said, “It was a success., I’m already a Windstorm Sword Hero.”

Seeing how his legs had become blurry, everyone’s expressions immediately turned serious.

Over 70% of those in the crowd could not see clearly which leg had Fang Xingjian moved earlier.

The Headmaster laughed uproariously. To think that such a rare job like the Windstorm Sword Hero had actually appeared in the Prefectural Selection this time around. This was undoubtedly the highlight of his career. Even his Majesty in the Imperial Capital would surely give him great praises for his teachings.

The quick witted instructors all quickly stepped forward, fawning, “Congratulations, Headmaster! After over ten years or careful nurturing of the students in a bid to strengthen and boost Kirst’s martial arts, you’ve finally came across a heaven-defying genius like Fang Xingjian, and groomed him into a Windstorm Sword Hero!”

“Windstorm Sword Hero is only the beginning. Based on Fang Xingjian’s talent, after ten to twenty years, he will definitely be at the Divine level. At that moment, both Headmaster and Master Huang Lin will be the teachers of a Divine level practitioner, and all of us could also bask in the light.”

“Yeah, since our academy has been founded over two hundred years ago, not a single Divine level powerhouse has appeared. The Headmaster is truly the first one to have such success as a master of a generation, having students all over the world.”

Bootlicking after bootlicking followed. The previous disdain, contempt and pity in their eyes when they looked at Fang Xingjian had now transformed into envy, admiration and passion.

After all, they were not idiots. How could they deliberately choose to go against a Windstorm Sword Hero, someone who could become a Divine level powerhouse in the future?

To them, people like Rebecca who did not know any better were simply people who had turned into idiots from their martial arts practice.

Although some bootlickers were too obvious, the Headmaster and Huang Lin listened to them and accepted them all. The Headmaster in particular showed an extremely good mood, with a perpetual smile on his face.

The Headmaster calmly said, “Enough, enough! All of you can take your leave first.” He then glanced at Fang Xingjian, looking at him as though he was a precious treasure, and said, “Xingjian, follow me. You are a Windstorm Sword Hero and naturally we must place more emphasis on your training from now on. We’ll discuss and plan for your next steps together.

“Hmmm, I remember that the Windstorm Sword Hero has the specialty of increasing one’s action and movement speed? It’s just perfect that the Kirst City Lord has over tens of Wind Hawks. I’ll get him to gift a few to you to eat, for you to nourish your body.”

Hearing the Headmaster’s words, everyone in the crowd gulped. The Wind Hawks reared by the City Lord were extremely ferocious beasts, with levels as high as 20. They were the City Lord’s most treasured pets.

But to think that with just that one word from the Headmaster, he would need to give them up as nourishment for Fang Xingjian!

The envious gazes from the crowd sent to Fang Xingjian instantly intensified by ten times.

But there was no choice. This was a Windstorm Sword Hero. The Windstorm Sword Hero which, in the entire course of history of the Empire, was only successfully transitioned into by three individuals; and all three of them had eventually become Divine level experts.

But now, finally, there was a fourth.
