Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 884: Chapter 884 Minor Sword Intent

”Super monster?”

”Super freak?”

”Super genius among super geniuses?”

It seemed that no term could aptly describe the terror this young man instilled; he truly had surpassed his peers by far too much.

It wasn’t a transcendence of cultivation level, but a surpassing in martial arts prowess!

That finger strike earlier was clearly a manifestation of achieving Minor Sword Intent.

For martial artists who use swords, or rather swordmasters, Sword Intent is very important.

Some say Sword Intent is ethereal, but that’s not the case.

Sword Intent genuinely exists, progressing from the Beginner Stage to Small Success, from Small Success to Great Success, from Great Success to Perfection, from Perfection to the Transcendental Realm, from Transcendental Realm to Momentum, from Momentum to Profound Intricacies, and from Profound Intricacies to the Mystic Art, ultimately arriving at the Unity of Man and Sword.

I am the sword; the sword is me.

Whether it’s Slaughter Sword Intent or Destruction Sword Intent, they’re merely practical applications of Sword Intent.

The existence of Sword Intent comprehensively elevates a swordmaster, including lethality, willpower, speed, sword moves, and so on.

Previously, Ling Xiao’s Sword Intent was merely at the Beginner Stage; thus, it could only intimidate enemies and had little practical use.

However, now that his Sword Intent has reached Small Success, it could inflict substantial damage.

Using a finger as a sword, Sword Intent swirled around the fingertip, merging with the Heavenly Origin Power to produce explosive damage.

The power of an ordinary finger sword could never be so great.

If just a Minor Sword Intent was already so terrifying, how powerful would he be when he reached Unity of Man and Sword?

Ji Mingkong couldn’t help but take a deep breath, feeling utterly shocked within.

She also wielded a sword, yet her Sword Intent had not awakened; perhaps this was the biggest reason she lost to Ling Xiao in the first place.

The gap between martial artists sometimes truly wasn’t just about cultivation level; cultivation level was merely one of many benchmarks.

”How interesting, the initial success of Minor Sword Intent is already so formidable; it seems the path I’ve taken is the right one after all!”

Ling Xiao felt a surprising delight as well. His past self, having a plethora of attack methods, didn’t deliberately study Sword Intent and simply acted on instinct.

But in the Nine Tripod Illusionary Realm, he finally realized the exquisite utility of Sword Intent.

As a swordmaster, there’s no need to learn other martial skills; focusing solely on the sword was enough for a lifetime of study.

Combining sword techniques with the Mountain and River Martial Soul, it wouldn’t be impossible to dominate the entire Mysterious World.

As for reaching Unity of Man and Sword, Ling Xiao didn’t dwell on it; it was still a distant goal.

Only by continuously achieving one small goal after another would the ultimate goal potentially be realized.

”What are you going to do?”

Watching Ling Xiao shatter his own Ice Phoenix Illusion, Fengming Bo struggled as he crawled backward a few steps, then asked with horror.

Fengming Bo, who was once domineering and disdainful, now truly looked like an embarrassed dog.

He had previously mocked Ling Xiao as a despicable human being, a good-for-nothing, yet now, he appeared more like the good-for-nothing, even unable to catch a casual finger strike from Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao walked forward, his face devoid of any sympathy.

Those who humiliate others will be humiliated in return!

That was his principle!

With a scornful sneer, Ling Xiao looked down at Fengming Bo, who was sprawled on the ground, and said, ”Noble? Exceptionally talented? Heavenly Realm Martial Artist? Young prodigy? Now, all those lofty terms you pride yourself on seem quite unsuitable for you.

Instead, my words are more apt; you’re just a parasite that’s been gnawing on your great family’s success!

I’m a despicable human?

Then what about you, who couldn’t withstand a single move from me? Don’t you look more like an animal kept by humans?”

The words were like a knife.

Cutting directly into Fengming Bo’s heart.

It was as though a harsh slap had been fiercely dealt across Fengming Bo’s face, leaving him trembling all over, his complexion deathly pale and in agony.

And this time, it wasn’t just Fengming Bo, including those from the Phoenix God College who also seemed to have been struck hard in the face, their expressions were uglier than ugly.

Just moments ago, they had treated Ling Xiao like trash, provoking Fengming Bo to cripple him.

Yet at this moment, Ling Xiao had not only crippled Phoenix God College’s disciple Leng Chan but had also easily defeated the royal descendent Fengming Bo, on whom they had placed high hopes.

How laughable that the Phoenix God College looked down upon such a man.

Calling others lowly humans?

What, then, did that make those who were beaten by the ”lowly humans?”

Was it just as Ling Xiao had said, they were as useless as livestock?

”The grand Phoenix God College is no more than this; it’s a good thing I don’t have a letter of recommendation, otherwise, it might have ruined my future!”

Of course, this was mere sarcasm; Ling Xiao knew that since the Phoenix God College was so renowned in the Divine Phoenix Continent, it couldn’t be entirely false.

It’s normal to have some troublemakers, but the college’s treatment of him left him quite displeased—they didn’t give him the slightest chance and even condoned their disciples attacking him.

From this, it was clear what the atmosphere of this college was like.

He took a deep breath, refusing to glance again at the fallen Fengming Bo, and turned to walk towards the outskirts of the crowd.

Ji Mingkong and others naturally followed close behind.

”Our Phoenix God College’s reputation is not something for a mere human like you to evaluate! No matter how outstanding you are, with your kind of character, our Phoenix God College would definitely not accept you!”

Just then, a Phoenix God College teacher who had been watching the fight from the sidelines suddenly spoke up.

His words were none too pleasant.

Ling Xiao sighed. When even the teachers were like this, it reflected the ethos of the institution.

He didn’t turn back but kept walking forward, wanting to leave this place that had disappointed him.

”How bold, after harming a disciple of our Phoenix God College, do you think you can leave so easily? Today, unless you make it clear who sent you to create trouble, don’t even think of leaving!”

Seeing that Ling Xiao was ignoring him, that teacher’s anger surged, and with a furious shout, his figure swiftly burst forward, blocking Ling Xiao and the others’ path.

”You guys go ahead, wait for me at Qingxu College.”

Ling Xiao sent a message to Ji Mingkong and the others.

Only when they had left would it be easier for Ling Xiao to find an opportunity to escape.

”Be careful!”

Having already witnessed Ling Xiao’s strength on their way, especially his ability to escape, Ji Mingkong and the others did not hesitate, pushing through the crowd to leave quickly.

No one stopped them.

After all, the main culprit for today’s chaos was Ling Xiao.

If Ling Xiao was taken care of, the others wouldn’t escape punishment either.

After Ji Mingkong and the others had left, Ling Xiao drew a deep breath, his gaze landing on the Phoenix God College teacher in front of him.

Questioning his own integrity?

Harboring ulterior motives?

Claiming that he was sent by others to cause disturbances?

Shameful that an old man of his age could say such things.

Upon hearing the teacher’s words, the disciples of the Phoenix God College grew excited.

Although Ling Xiao had acted in self-defense, under coercion.

But who would care about that.

Regardless, you’ve made trouble right at the doorstep of the Phoenix God College; they could pin the biggest blame on you, throw as much dirt as they wanted, and you’d have to bear it.

The faces of Phoenix God College’s people broke into mocking and triumphant smiles.

Since the teacher had stepped in, no matter if Ling Xiao had the skill of a three-headed six-armed being, he was going to be out of luck.

After all, even the most ordinary teacher qualified to work at the Phoenix God College had very formidable strength.
