My Master Knows It All

Cao Zhen’s brows were deeply furrowed. As a scion of the royal family, upon demonstrating exceptional talent, he had been given the best education since childhood.

Although he was now merely at the Golden Core Stage, he had been guided by no fewer than ten True Immortal Realm mentors, with three of them teaching him swordsmanship.

Yet, at this moment, his swordsmanship was unable to suppress the opponent.

If he wielded divine skills, naturally he could defeat the opponent, but having boasted in front of so many people that he would defeat the opponent with swordsmanship, how could he resort to divine skills!

Doing so would bring disgrace upon the Sky Clan, and upon the royal family.

However, this Human Clan’s swordsmanship was extraordinarily excessive in its strength.

It seems I have no choice but to use that sword!

Cao Zhen watched the Human Clan parry one of his strikes with a single sword, his figure subtly retreated a step, shifting from single-handed to two-handed sword grip, and thrust his sword once more.

As this sword was unleashed, the blade cleaved through space like lightning, carrying the momentum to shatter everything.

However, opposite him, Xingchen Zi also wielded the sword with both hands, horizontally before him, swiftly blocking the strike, the clashing swords emitted a resonant sound.

Cao Zhen felt the terrifying strength reverberating through his arms. Abruptly, his left hand gripping the longsword withdrew, revealing a slender sword that was only half the length of the main sword.

Though this sword was short, its blade was engraved with intricate runes, emanating an ancient and formidable aura.

Child-Mother Sword!

Even the True Immortal Realm cultivators who trained him in swordsmanship were unaware that he had actually mastered the twin sword technique.

He had always battled with a single sword.

He considered his twin sword technique as a trump card, a hidden strategy, initially intending to continuously cultivate the twin sword technique.

Unless absolutely necessary, he would never reveal his twin sword technique.

He had anticipated potentially showcasing the twin sword technique in the Immortality Regainment Realm or perhaps in the True Immortal Realm, but he never imagined that he would be compelled to reveal it during the Golden Core Stage!

This tournament was crucial, determining eligibility for entering the Primeval Realm.

No one knew when the Primeval Realm would open; what if it was in ten or twenty years?

If eliminated now, or if he lost, he wouldn’t even have the chance to enter the Primeval Realm.

Therefore, he must win, and he promised not to use divine skills; if he did, it would be a disgrace to the entire royal family.

The only way to secure victory is to unleash the twin sword technique!

Child-Mother Sword, also known as Yin Yang Sword!

One sword represents Yang, the other Yin, embodying the coexistence and conflict between all things in heaven and earth.

With the Child-Mother Sword in hand, he felt a vastly improved flow of energy through the sword compared to before.

The Child Sword thrust out, harmonizing with the Mother Sword to form a swirling vortex. As the vortex rotated, the Child Sword carved a strange arc from the void, aiming directly at Xingchen Zi’s neck.

The sudden appearance of the Child Sword caught Xingchen Zi completely off guard, not expecting a second sword to appear in the opponent’s hand. Within an instant, it was at his throat, poised to pierce.

The surrounding Human Clan cultivators’ expressions became exceedingly grave.

Wu Jianzi unconsciously clenched both fists tightly, as if he himself were battling Tian Fu on the platform.

”Not good!”

”How can this sword be blocked?”

”Defeat is imminent!”

Low exclamations spread around, and on the platform, a victor’s smile emerged on Tian Fu’s face as his Child Sword stabbed heavily at the Human Clan opponent.

Almost simultaneously, Xingchen Zi’s feet abruptly shifted, a star-like phantom appearing beneath him, as if he stepped upon a meteor, suddenly changing his position.

Tian Fu’s sword thrust down, but it felt as though it was stabbing into thin air, landing without effect.

His face froze with disbelief — how, how could this be?

At such close range, how could the opponent possibly evade!

That movement, what kind of movement technique is it!

Many Human Clan cultivators turned their heads towards Cao Zhen; they had seen that movement technique before, and the only one they had seen perform it was their Clan Leader, Cao Zhen.

Now, unexpectedly witnessing it from another Human Clan individual, it implied that this Child Star Son...

Amidst the astonished gazes, after Xingchen Zi dodged the sword, as he faced the Sky Clan opposite him, a sword technique naturally emerged in his mind.

Suddenly, a hundred identical phantoms of Xingchen Zi appeared in the void, all simultaneously wielding swords.

Instantly, a hundred streaks of sword light erupted in the void.

Each of those hundred sword streaks was different, as though a hundred Golden Core Period Limit masters were simultaneously executing a strike.

Dimly, those hundred swords seemed like a hundred stars traversing the sky, yet in the haze, it appeared as if it was only one sword!

As the singular sword stroke passed, the surrounding air was sliced open, a clear trace revealed.

The transformations unfolded so swiftly that Tian Fu hadn’t even comprehended how his opponent dodged his sword, the next moment that terrifying sword descended.

The longsword pierced directly through his back, impaling his body, the sharp Sword Qi surged through his interior violently, intent on ravaging every organ.

On either side of the martial stage, Human Clan cultivators and even Alien Race cultivators turned their gaze towards Cao Zhen.

The sword technique was famously known; many cultivators had not seen it before but had heard of it, once used frequently by Cao Zhen, considered his strongest sword!

Besides Cao Zhen, only a few disciples from the Four Treasures Peak had performed that sword.

Now, another Human Clan cultivator executed the sword technique, making his identity abundantly clear!

This is Cao Zhen’s disciple!

Wu Jianzi, staring at the figure on stage, finally realized why the sword drawing technique seemed familiar; he had understood it through Sect Leader Cao, hence the resemblance wasn’t surprising for Cao’s disciple!
