Watching the limping Elder’s departing back, Qin Tian was still savoring that last sentence of his in his mind.

Using Fire Attribute True Qi for cultivation is going in the completely wrong direction?

Qin Tian understood; this limping Elder was using a roundabout way to help him cultivate!

”Since using Fire Attribute True Qi for cultivation is going in the wrong direction, then using Water Attribute True Qi for cultivation should be the correct trick.”

Qin Tian lowered his head and looked at the Sword Drawing Technique in his hand, and in that instant, it felt like something clicked.

On the surface, the limping Elder had come to persuade him not to cultivate the Sword Drawing Technique, but in reality, he must have guessed Qin Tian wouldn’t give it up, so his true purpose was to tell him the key to cultivating it!

He hadn’t expected that his usual politeness would actually earn him crucial help from the limping Elder.

Qin Tian could also tell that this Elder’s cultivation was unfathomably deep, but he had no idea why such a powerhouse would loaf around in the Xuanyuan Book Pavilion as a Guardian Elder just waiting to die.

Since his cultivation was so profound, why was one of his legs crippled?

Qin Tian was very curious, but none of that was something he could know.

Carrying the Sword Drawing Technique, Qin Tian went to the Second Floor exit of the Book Pavilion to register.

The limping Elder glanced at Qin Tian, said nothing, carefully recorded it, and then said routinely, ”You must return it within three months. You may not copy, lend, or lose it, otherwise both your master and you will be punished according to sect rules.”

”Got it, thank you Elder,” Qin Tian said.

”Yo, the Sword Drawing Technique. Got some temper, huh.”

Just as Qin Tian finished registering and was about to put the Sword Drawing Technique away, Jiang Feng behind him saw the technique in his hand and let out a cold laugh.

”Qin Tian, you’re overestimating yourself. Countless people have tried the Sword Drawing Technique; in the end, half don’t even qualify to get started. After getting started, almost no one can even reach minor success… Heh, didn’t expect you to be that brave.”

Jiang Feng stood behind him, looking at Qin Tian.

Qin Tian turned and looked right back at him. ”So what you’re saying is, Jiang Feng, you already borrowed the Sword Drawing Technique and tried cultivating it? You’re the one with experience, right? And yet you cultivated it into a complete mess and still have the face to mock me? Where do you get the guts?”

At these words, Jiang Feng’s expression froze instantly.

A month ago, he did indeed borrow it to cultivate. Unfortunately, after ten days, he had made zero progress and hadn’t even entered the introductory stage. Later, after learning just how difficult and how terrifying the risk of Deviation was with the Sword Drawing Technique, he obediently returned it.

”What, you beat one Outer Disciple, Li Yang, and now you think you’re all that?”

Jiang Feng curled his lip. ”Just you wait. When the Spring Martial Arts Competition comes, I’ll stomp you into the ground!”

”You and I are both Inner Sect Disciples now. Xuanyuan Immortal Sect doesn’t encourage Inner Sect Disciples to waste energy on infighting. I’ll let you off for the moment. When the Spring Martial Arts Competition five months from now comes, when there are no sect rules in the way, I’ll make you pay!”

”Disciple of the Chief Elder, my ass!”

Jiang Feng spat; originally that gob of phlegm was aimed at the ground.

But on its way down, it abruptly changed direction, and that mouthful of spit landed hard on his own shoe!

”Tsss!”

Seeing that, Jiang Feng immediately flew into a rage.

Qin Tian gave a faint smile. ”You’re really something—you even mess with yourself. I genuinely admire that act.”

”You actually dared make a move on me! You used True Qi to redirect it! Qin Tian, you violated sect rules!”

Jiang Feng instantly realized this was one of Qin Tian’s pranks.

But he was puzzled—he hadn’t sensed any fluctuation of True Qi just now. What was up with that mouthful of spit?

Before he could speak, the limping Elder had already drawled, ”In my Second Floor Book Pavilion, no spitting on the floor. This time you spat on your shoe. Next time you spit randomly, I’ll make you swallow it back down.”

Swish!

With that, Jiang Feng’s face went rigid, his whole face flushing red from the limping Elder’s words!

”You damn cripple, how dare you toy with me!”

He pointed at the limping Elder, took a deep breath, and ground out, ”You’re ruthless! Damn cripple, if you weren’t an Elder of Xuanyuan Sect, I’d have turned you to dust long ago!”

In Xuanyuan Sect, unless under special circumstances, if a Disciple takes the initiative to attack an Elder, that is a major crime.

Besides, right now there were no other witnesses, just Qin Tian standing by. If he fought the limping Elder, Qin Tian would definitely stand on the Elder’s side. A wise man doesn’t suffer a loss before his eyes, so he grit his teeth and swallowed his anger.

He glared viciously at Qin Tian, then flung his sleeves and stalked off.

”Qin Tian, I challenge you!”

”Qin Tian, fight me! If you’ve got guts, fight me!”

”Qin Tian, I, Zhao Ziliang, challenge you. Hurry up and accept!”

”You turtle hiding in your shell, I’ve been looking all over for you. Now I finally found you. I challenge you, hurry up and accept!”

As Qin Tian came down from the Second Floor of the Book Pavilion and had just stepped out of the Xuanyuan Book Pavilion, he hadn’t expected that over twenty people had already gathered in the square at the entrance.

Seeing Qin Tian come out, they each immediately started shouting arrogantly, all clamoring to challenge him.

These people were, without a doubt, Outer Disciples of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect.

Qin Tian looked at them, utterly speechless.

He figured these guys must have found out his cultivation was at the Initial Stage of the Ascension Stage. The moment he showed his face, this many people wanted to challenge him?

He felt utterly exasperated.

This was the aftereffect of the challenge system set up by Xuanyuan Immortal Sect.

Every Outer Disciple wanted to rise to fame overnight by challenging an Inner Sect Disciple, so they could legitimately become Inner Sect Disciples.

So these Outer Disciples were naturally clever about it. If they were going to challenge someone, they’d of course pick the weakest Inner Sect Disciple.

And Qin Tian, even though he’d defeated Li Yang last time, apparently still hadn’t earned the recognition of these Outer Disciples. As soon as he showed up, dozens of Outer Disciples swarmed him.

”Whoa, Qin Tian, I finally found you. Where’ve you been this past month…”

Just as Qin Tian was looking at this crowd, Xu San squeezed out from among them.

Seeing the only Disciple friend he had in Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, Qin Tian frowned and asked, ”Xu San, what on earth is going on?”

Xu San said helplessly, ”What else could it be? Among the Outer Disciples, who knows who started the rumor, but everyone’s saying your cultivation is the weakest, your strength is the weakest, and that if anyone wants to challenge an Inner Sect Disciple, you’re the first choice.”

”Then this past month, nobody’s seen you, so they all assumed you were hiding, which only confirmed what they thought. So the moment you show up, of course there’ll be people challenging you. Each Disciple can only go up on the dueling platform once a month, so everyone’s hoping to fight you first, get ahead of the pack, and make a name for themselves.”

Listening to Xu San and then looking at the noisy crowd in front, Qin Tian was dumbfounded.

So everyone likes to squeeze the soft persimmon, huh?

Everyone thinks I’m the weakest?

He laughed.
