Chapter 48 (2/2)

Lin Gutian froze at where he stood.

His face took on a ghastly expression because not only did Su He not bother about him when he asked for a challenge, but stated that he would contend with another person from Lin Clan Sect Residence.

Lin Gutian looked at Lin Han with a dark expression.

“Alright, leave the Heavenly Pride Level battles for the last.” Luo Qingcheng suddenly stood up.

Being the most beautiful lady in Broken Sky City, the eldest miss of the Governor’s Residence, and one of the Five Prides, she naturally had a powerful speaking right.

Following that, Su He also felt that it was inappropriate for him to challenge Lin Han so soon, so he smiled. “Alright, I’ll listen to you, Eldest Miss Qingcheng.”

He looked at Lin Han again, then walked over to the Su family disciples.

“This is going to be a good show…”

Many people were as thrilled as if they smelled gunpowder.

They were also very interested in Lin Han.

The Five Heavenly Prides of Broken Sky City had remained for many years. Would there be a miracle this year? Would someone new break the mold?

Subsequently, the Martial Arts Exchange began.

Starting from weaker young disciples, one could either challenge a Warrior of the same level or exchange blows with a stronger master.

As for the Five Great Heavenly Prides, they would fight last.

Therefore, there were only disciples with weaker cultivation bases in the beginning.

“I’m going to present Shen Clan Sect Residence’s Thirteen Lone Peak Steps, a high-grade sword martial art.”

A young disciple dressed in white robes, who had the cultivation base of fifth tier martial arts, walked to the center of the practice stage. He pulled a three-foot-long sword out of his scabbard and began wielding it.

His sword technique was sharp, and sword-lights filled the air.

When one performed the Thirteen Lone Peak Steps, one would feel like one was standing on a lone peak, and was changing the wind and the clouds with one’s sword.

Lin Han was secretly deriving the white-clothed disciples’ sword technique through his Golden Spirit Fire, so as to incorporate it in his sword technique.

Since he had a strong ability to discern the inner workings of martial arts, the Martial Arts Exchange was the perfect opportunity for him to “secretly learn” martial arts without any limit.

Perhaps other people could get some insight from that sword technique, but Lin Han could imprint the whole technique on his mind by using the Golden Spirit Fire. He learned it right away, and could even comprehend it well.

Young disciples went up the stage one after another. Some went up to perform, while some exchanged blows with others.

Those who went on stage were genius disciples from different great powers, thus their martial arts were essential martial arts from their respective clans.

Lin Han observed quietly throughout the process with an expressionless face.

Deep down, he was actually elated as he imprinted dozens of different martial arts like a madman.

“Shooting Star Finger Technique…”

“Nine Sudden Thunder Swords…”

“Thirteen Flowing Cloud Pikes…”

…

Lin Han derived palm techniques, fist techniques, leg techniques, body techniques, defensive martial arts, sword techniques, blade techniques, and even rare disguise martial arts.

Even though there were some martial arts that he did not need, he depicted all of them in his mind.

This was because these martial art paths were connected. If he could comprehend all of them, he could extract their essence to incorporate them into his own martial arts. It would certainly elevate his power, and he could even create a unique, powerful martial art for himself.

Lin Han had not gone on stage yet as he had been observing quietly.

On the opposite side, Lin Yu, Lin Cai, Lin Jiao, and the others had gone up for battles.

The Martial Arts Exchange was a platform for them to improve themselves, thus they were not stingy about using their strength.

Additionally, after every battle, the Five Great Heavenly Prides would give a few pointers to the disciples who were involved, which was very beneficial.

As time passed, the disciples who went on stage were the stronger ones.

“My name is Shen Yu from the Shen family.”

A tall and burly young man went onto the practice stage.

He gave fist salutes to the crowd, then looked at Lin Han before he called out to him, “Brother Lin, would you care to have a battle with me?”
