Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2069: Chapter 2072: Doesn’t Have to Be the Best

”No, I... Please take a look, Master!”

Jiang Chen extended his left hand, and the Saint Dragon Sword appeared in his grasp.

”This... Spirit Treasure Level Divine Weapon!?”

”He also has a Spirit Treasure Level Divine Weapon!”

Jian Cangqiong and the others were taken aback.

Spirit Treasure Level Divine Weapons, which even those at the peak of the Unity Realm Stage hadn’t fully equipped with, were unexpectedly found in the hands of two juniors at the Divine Infant Realm Early Stage.

Ouyang Ruoxue’s weapon was understandable since Changling Academy was one of the top powers on the continent, and it wasn’t surprising for them to have Spirit Treasure Level Divine Weapons on their weapon exchange list, which was intended to motivate the students. But Jiang Chen’s weapon...

The crowd looked at Jiang Chen with eyes full of surprise and doubt.

”Alright, it seems I need to reconsider what kind of gift to give you as a master-disciple gift!”

Wine-crazed glanced at the Saint Dragon Sword and put away his own wine sword.

”Take your time thinking, Master, you can owe me the gift for now.”

Jiang Chen smiled lightly and put away the Saint Dragon Sword.

”Why don’t you use a Spirit Treasure Divine Weapon? Are you looking down on me?”

A cold voice sounded, as Ouyang Ruoxue looked at Jiang Chen with a hint of annoyance.

”No!”

Jiang Chen shook his head gently: ”I advise you not to always use this Spirit Treasure Level Divine Weapon. Firstly, revealing your wealth can easily draw unwanted attention, and more importantly, you can’t yet unleash the full power of this divine weapon. Relying on it too much can make you dependent.”

”Over time, your control over your own power will gradually diminish. Although your cultivation level will improve with practice, among cultivators of the same realm, you will gradually fall behind. Even if you win battles, it will be due to the divine weapon you’re wielding, not your own strength.”

Jiang Chen paused and glanced at the weapon in his hand, smiling helplessly: ”If I didn’t only have divine weapons and lacked ordinary spiritual artifacts, I wouldn’t use the divine weapon either!”

Jian Cangqiong and others were momentarily stunned by his words and then revealed a satisfied smile.

”Haha! Well said!”

Ouyang Song laughed heartily: ”As expected of the disciple of the Wine-crazed brother, I only realized such insights when I was at the Integration Realm Stage.”

Turning to Ouyang Ruoxue, Ouyang Song spoke with a gentle smile: ”Snow, now do you understand why Grandpa doesn’t allow you to use the Bi Han Sword for practicing Sword Dao?”

Ouyang Ruoxue was momentarily stunned, a contemplative look in her eyes.

A few breaths later, Ouyang Ruoxue stepped forward to Ouyang Song, handing over the Bi Han Sword: ”Grandpa, you should return the sword to the academy. I’ll fetch it myself when I can fully master such a divine weapon.”

”Haha! Well said!”

Ouyang Song chuckled, taking the Bi Han Sword and putting it away, gently saying: ”It was I who didn’t consider carefully, only thinking of giving you the best, forgetting that the most suitable is the best!”

Ouyang Ruoxue returned to the open space, reached out, and a spiritual artifact longsword appeared in her hand. It was just an ordinary spiritual artifact, not a divine weapon.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and stepped up to Ouyang Ruoxue, offering the divine weapon: ”Let’s exchange!”

Jian Cangqiong and the others were momentarily stunned, looking at Jiang Chen with curious expressions.

Hu Yiqiu looked at Ouyang Ruoxue, then at Jiang Chen, his eyes spinning as he thought to himself, is this kid interested in that girl? Should I take her as a disciple, then...

”No need!”

Ouyang Ruoxue firmly refused.

”It’s not just for you!”

Jiang Chen explained softly: ”Using a Spirit Treasure Level Divine Weapon all the time, then suddenly switching to a normal spiritual artifact during a battle can cause a slight awkwardness in your attacks, and that slight hesitation can be fatal in a life-and-death fight.”

”While using a Spiritual Divine Weapon, the issue remains, but it’s much better. It’s like someone used to eating delicacies suddenly having to eat coarse grain, it’s hard to swallow. But if they first have several days of simple vegetarian meals and porridge, the discomfort of switching to coarse grain is greatly reduced.”

Switching gears, Jiang Chen addressed his own situation: ”I haven’t used divine weapons much, so using ordinary spiritual artifacts doesn’t affect me much, and I also want to train in controlling my power with simple weapons.”

”Thus, it’s not just for you, but also for myself, let’s exchange!”

Hu Yiqiu and the others showed expressions of admiration, looking at Jiang Chen with deep appreciation!

”This kid is truly a pleasant surprise!”

Hu Yiqiu remarked with satisfaction, his gaze on Jiang Chen full of approval and praise.

”Old wine-imbiber, even without that connection, I’m jealous of you!”

Li Yukun lamented.

Jian Cangqiong and the others glanced at Hu Yiqiu with slightly envious expressions.

”No need to be jealous, if you like, you can have him train with you for a while.”

Hu Yiqiu laughed lightly and said.

The crowd was momentarily stunned, then recalled that Jiang Chen could comprehend the Wood Path, their expressions immediately changing, and they looked at Hu Yiqiu with a gaze full of an amazing theory brewing in their minds.

Hu Yiqiu nodded gently.

Jian Cangqiong and several others had serious expressions, their eyes gleaming with shock as they looked at Jiang Chen with eyes filled with fervor.

”This kid...how can anyone keep up with him?”

Li Qingzhu muttered in disbelief.

”What are you all talking about?”

Ouyang Song looked at Hu Yiqiu with uncertainty in his eyes.

”None of your concern.”

Hu Yiqiu didn’t offer an explanation, turning back to Ouyang Ruoxue and Jiang Chen.

”Alright!”

Ouyang Ruoxue contemplated for a moment, then gently nodded, handing the spiritual longsword to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and exchanged the weapons.

Swoosh!

Grasping the spiritual longsword, Jiang Chen retreated ten meters, facing Ouyang Ruoxue from a distance: ”Changlin Academy, Southern Maniac Mountain, Jiang Chen.”

Ouyang Ruoxue was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, then replied softly: ”Aiming to enter Changlin Academy’s Southern Maniac Mountain, Ouyang Ruoxue.”

It was Jiang Chen’s turn to be surprised, turning to look at Hu Yiqiu in confusion.

”Kid, whether she can join our Southern Maniac Mountain depends on your ability. If her performance in this battle doesn’t impress me, I won’t accept her!”

Hu Yiqiu chuckled lightly.

”This... Master, you’re really giving me a tough challenge.”

Jiang Chen smiled wryly.

Hu Yiqiu’s words seemed to suggest that Ouyang Ruoxue had to defeat Jiang Chen, but that wasn’t actually the case.

He wanted to see Ouyang Ruoxue’s talents; assessing this talent required evaluating her mental response and combat awareness in various situations.

It was a tricky task for Jiang Chen because he couldn’t win too swiftly or lose too quickly, and he had to consistently guide Ouyang Ruoxue to display her full abilities, which required skill.

Jiang Chen also understood that what Hu Yiqiu was doing was also a form of training for him.

If he could guide Ouyang Ruoxue in various battle situations, he too could absorb valuable combat experience, and he would also better practice merging the Wood Path with Sword Dao in offense and defense.
