I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 697: Chapter 421: The Final Round_3

“It’s truly beautiful.”

Unconsciously, the two had walked to the edge of the stone sword spanning a hundred feet. Looking out at the vivid scene of the sea merging with the sky and the fiery sun partially concealed by the vast, misty waves in the distance, they couldn’t help expressing their awe.

“May I take a photo with you?”

Master Wanyu hesitated for a moment but eventually mustered up the courage to make this request to Chen Mobai as the evening glow was about to recede completely. Without hesitation, he nodded.

“It is my honor.”

After hearing his response, Master Wanyu happily took out her cellphone. Using the Object Capturing Technique, she set the perfect angle and, with Chen Mobai, stood against the stunning backdrop of the evening glow while pressing the capture button.

...

“Thank you. This has been the happiest day of my life.”

Looking at the image of the man and woman standing side by side on the screen, a blush still lingered on Master Wanyu’s face as she shared her feelings with Chen Mobai.

“I’m also very happy. Let’s strive and cheer for each other during the final round.”

Chen Mobai responded with kind words and glances at the time. Seeing that it was getting late, he then rode together with the gleeful young girl into the setting sun, escorting her back to the lodging arranged by the Mountain Sea Academy.

For Chen Mobai, this might have been their last encounter if Master Wanyu did not succeed in Foundation Establishment.

Among the students of the 120 school districts, only those who could establish their foundations held positions equivalent to the school’s top performers.

If Chen Mobai remembered correctly, Master Wanyu was of the same year as him, and with just a year and a half left, her hopes of Foundation Establishment were extremely slim.

Returning her three lipsticks today was a fitting end to their interactions.

After doing this, Chen Mobai felt a sense of spiritual elevation. A Green Paulownia Seedling within his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion sprouted and merged into the central beryl wutong tree, resulting in a slight increase in his Divine Sense.

Is this karma?

Chen Mobai inexplicably recollected his initial encounter with the successor of The Divine Machine Mansion. She also seemed to establish bonds through karma. He wondered how much she would advance when their causal ties reach their conclusion?

Time flew, and it was soon the final round of the Purple Electric Sword choosing its master, as announced by the Mountain Sea Academy.

Chen Mobai was chosen to interact with the Purple Electric Sword on the penultimate fourth day, the final part of the selection process.

The ones before him were the twelve unparalleled Sword Dao geniuses, selected by Hao Cao, to cover up the reincarnation of the Holy Light Elder.

Master Wanyu, who was weaker in cultivation, was arranged to be the third one. Before she entered the Sword Tower, she gifted Chen Mobai a Sword Bag. It was a craft item that she had bought when she was buying lipsticks at the business street.

Compared to before, the palm-sized Sword Bag now had a circle of embroidery on it. The embroidered pattern was a sketch of their shared sunset photo.

Inside the Sword Bag was a white stone infused with Master Wanyu’s Streamer Sword Qi, which she said was a gift to celebrate Chen Mobai obtaining the Purple Electric Sword in advance.

Chen Mobai thanked her and didn’t refuse, politely accepting the Sword Bag.

After their final interaction with the Purple Electric Sword, the sixteen Cultivators had to stay in their respective rooms, awaiting the finalist’s walkout from the Sword Tower, which would announce the ultimate result.

Soon, Zhongli Tianyu and Zhai Jianbai exited the Sword Tower, and it was Chen Mobai’s turn.

Since he had been there before, Hao Cao didn’t accompany him this time, but merely taught him the mantra to open and close the Sword Box.

At the entrance of the Sword Tower, Chen Mobai saw Pei Qingshuang who was waiting there. She didn’t say much but just gave him a thumbs-up.

Chen Mobai nodded and stepped in.
