Chapter 118: Progress in Mastery of All-Thing (1/2)
Unlike the first and second rounds, outsiders were forbidden to watch the third round. Other than the examinees, only the members of the Heaven Sword Sect were present inside the Sword Pavilion.
All present had their eyes on Snowy, filled with curiosity.
”Isn't that the girl who had passed all the nine gates? She is so young…”
”Yeah, she is the one. With her outstanding results, I think the sect will not refuse if she wants to skip the examination. Why does she need to muddle around here with us?”
”Maybe she wants to learn many Earth-grade techniques from here?”
”Hmph. What do you know? Even if she is extremely talented, learning Earth Grade techniques in a short time is still very difficult. How many techniques do you think she can learn in six hours? Are you forget about the bet between Young Master Qian and her? I think she is here to thrashing Young Master Xian once more.”
”Is it really that difficult to learn an Earth Grade technique?”
”Heh, do you think it is easy to learn a new technique only in six hours? Maybe it is doable if you want to learn Mortal or Profound grade techniques, but Earth grade techniques? You are just wasting your time!”
”It is a pity, though…”
”C'mon don't bite more than you can chew. If you perform well in this round, maybe you can get another chance to come here in the future.”
The examinees didn't waste their time and hurriedly dispersed, searching for any suitable techniques they could learn.
Some of the examinees from the clans affiliated with the Heaven Sword Sect didn't pick random techniques, instead, they approached the stone tablet which contained the sword techniques passed on to their family to increase their comprehension. It was far more beneficial for them to do this instead of learning a new technique from the scratch.
”Snowy, which technique do you want to pick?”
”There are so many choices! Heaven Sword Sect really is up to its name!”
Qi Ying'er and Qi Ning'er looked around the room with sparkling eyes. Their eyes fixated on the Earth grade techniques section, basically ignoring the Mortal and Profound Grade techniques section.
Although it was not the first time they came upon Earth grade technique, this was the first time they had seen a lot of them in one place. She couldn't help but feel excited!
”I want to take a look first.”
”Then, I am going first. I want to find the Trinity Sword's stone tablet, hopefully, no one had claimed the sword tablet.”
”Is that the signature technique from Meng Clan, Meng Qi?”
”Yes. If I can learn the insight from the sword tablet, I think I can reach a great success level today.”
Although everybody could learn any techniques, it didn't mean that they could exert the full power of the moves. The amount of strength they could release was depending on how deep their mastery of each technique.
Martial Techniques mastery could be divided into several levels: Initial success, Small Success, Great Success, and Perfection. Only at the perfection level could the practitioner sense the sword intent within the sword technique.
Of course, those were the only level that ordinary cultivators knew. When they reached the realm of Grandmaster, they will realize that beyond the perfection level there was one more level called Manifestation. It was the level where the practitioner could unleash the intent within the techniques.
Increasing the comprehension of martial techniques required vigorous training and accumulation of insight. For a loose cultivator or cultivator from a mediocre clan, family, or sect, reaching the level of great success was already an incredible achievement due to a lack of resources and experts.
That was why many people spent their utmost effort to join Big Sect and Great Family.
”How nice… We need to learn from the start.”
”That is why you should hurry and pick your sword tablet; six hours is very short.”
”Okay! Let's go sister!”
”Yes, yes. Snowy, we are going too.”
