However, by the time Chen Mobai and his group ascended to the second floor, Yuan Chiye had already left, apparently not through the front door but flew straight out of a second-story window.

Really, how could the leader of a faction be so thin-skinned?

Chen Mobai shook his head, only to realize that Liu Wenbo had not left yet.

“Brother Chen, Brother Yuan said that Uncle E wants to see you after the sect’s grand competition.”

E Yun!

Was he here just now?

Chen Mobai nodded gently. Whether in terms of courtesy or reason, he wanted

to express his gratitude to E Yun in person.

“Brother Chen, congratulations on becoming a true disciple.

After delivering Yuan Chiye’s message, Liu Wenbo respectfully bowed to Chen freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Mobai.

“There’s no need for such formalities, let’s all sit down.”

Chen Mobai immediately gestured for him to rise, then invited the four of them to sit.

“You have already reserved a Foundation Building Pill in the next batch. I just don’t know if I’ll get the chance.”

Qi Rui sighed. He had quite a bit of confidence in himself, but the crushing defeat in the sect’s grand competitions these last two years had truly shaken him.

Regarding this, all Chen Mobai could do was console him.

Honestly, those true disciples of the Divine Wood Sect were all quite skilled.

If he hadn’t suppressed them solely based on his realm, and if he hadn’t had the Divine Wood Sword, capable of displaying its full power, in his hand, he wouldn’t have been able to defeat Ding Ying in one sword blow.

Qi Rui’s realm was sufficient, and his Magic Duel experience rich, but he was missing a powerful killer move.

Ding Ying, for example, had the dual-phase rotation, Heavenly Wood Talisman, and even the Flying Flower Talisman Armor-three powerful techniques. Most true disciples had one or two, and with such strength, she was already at the top among them all.

Unfortunately, she met Chen Mobai, who suppressed others purely based on his realm. Facing the power of Core Formation, all three powerful techniques were broken and she was completely defeated.

“After Ding Ying was defeated by Brother Chen this year, the rune production department will naturally follow the flow and will no longer lend her the Flying Flower Talisman Armor. You’re also part of the rune production department, so you might want to think about making a move.”

Xi Jinghuo gave a suggestion. Hearing this, Qi Rui’s eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

After Ding Ying was defeated, though there were still eight or nine individuals at Qi Cultivation Rank-9 in the rune production department queue, he at least had the chance to apply for a second-ranking rune formation.

Unlike before, as long as Ding Ying did not step down, everyone else could only stare in van.

“Jing Huo, you’re right. I wonder if you could help me out here. I’ve been in the sect for twenty-three years and have accumulated some spirit stones and contributions.”

Although Xi Jinghuo’s cultivation level was ordinary, he had a Core Formation grandfather and pretty good Spiritual Root Talent, which made him one of the heavenly favored ones in the Divine Wood Sect.

“I have a bit of influence in our Sword Training Department, but I don’t know anyone in your rune production department.”

“How about I transfer to your Sword Training Department?

“It’s easy to transfer in, but our Sword Training Department’s true disciple positions are first decided through internal sword duels each year. Even my senior brother Qi Hou, who is my grandfather’s disciple, couldn’t defeat senior brother Feng and thus couldn’t obtain a second-tier flying sword.” Xi Jinghuo’s words caused Qi Rui to sigh once again. Chen Mobai was helpless in this situation.

In the end, the true disciple position hinged mainly on strength.

“However, next year our Sword Training Department is planning to organize a group to exchange studies at Golden Cliff. I’m part of the group, and if you’re willing to pay some spirit stones, we can go together.

“I’ve been there once, but my path in the Red Flame Sword technique tends more towards rune techniques, so it doesn’t align well with Golden Cliff’s pure sword path.”

“Why not try training in dual-phase rotation?”

In the end, Xi Jinghuo suggested another plan.

Generally speaking, the strength disparity among those at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation wouldn’t be large. With secondary-rated talisman magic weapons, it could virtually determine the outcome of a match.

But without considering external factors and judging based only on the spiritual power realm, those who practiced the dual-phase rotation technique undoubtedly had the advantage over those who specialized in one area.

However, the benefits and drawbacks of the Dual-phase technique are quite evident.

Only those with ample Spirit Stone resources and gifted Spiritual Root Talent can cultivate both techniques to the peak of Qi Cultivation.

Qi Rui’s Spiritual Root is decent, and he has also managed to save up some Spirit Stones over the years. If he wanted to cultivate the Dual-phase technique, he would have to invest all of these resources, even using his hard-earned contributions intended for the exchange of Foundation Building Pills on these cultivation resources.

Moreover, while the resources needed during the Qi Cultivation phase of the Dual-phase technique are barely manageable, once one reaches Foundation Establishment, without the support of a sect or a prestigious family, it would be almost impossible for the cultivator to persist until Core Formation. Bear in mind that the previous generation’s True Disciple, E Yun, did not practice the Dual-phase technique for this very reason, focusing solely on The Scripture of Everlasting Life.

Having successfully established his Foundation, he is now regarded as having the potential to reach Core Formation.

Thanks to not having the burden of the Dual-phase technique and the added century of life granted by The Scripture of Everlasting Life, as long as he doesn’t experience a premature collapse, he can essentially be assured of reaching the Perfection stage of Foundation Establishment.

As for whether he can reach Core Formation or not, that’s entirely up to fate. “Thank you for your advice, Brother Xi. I will give it some serious thought.” The words of Xi Jinghuo touched Qi Rui’s heart, and he decided to withdraw and contemplate it further after finishing his drink.

“Brother Xi, I wonder if there are any restrictions for the Sword Training Department’s quota for going to Golden Cliff?”

The one asking this question was Liu Wenbo. Chen Mobai knew that he was also cultivating the Dual-phase technique, probably both The Scripture of Everlasting Life and the Red Flame Sword Jue. He too was on the path of a Sword Cultivator.

“The limit is one hundred people. Cultivators in the late stage of Qi Cultivation from our Sword Training Department are given priority. If there are any vacancies, they will be opened up to other departments.”

-If you want to go, you can first give Brother Wen from our Sword Training Department a hundred Spirit Stones to reserve a spot.”

“If there is no place for you later on, these hundred Spirit Stones will be refunded back to you.”

After hearing this, Liu Wenbo stood up and thanked Xi Jinghuo.

“Brother Chen, are you interested? I have noticed you practicing your sword skills, and it seems your achievements are quite impressive.

Xi Jinghuo implied.

Although his defeat of Ding Ying with one strike of the sword was seen by outsiders as the merit of his Rank-2 Magic Artifact, the Divine Wood Sword, as a disciple of the Sword Training Department, Xi Jinghuo knew that without a solid foundation in Sword Dao, even a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage couldn’t strike such a formidable sword blow.

“I will see, if there is a chance, I would like to visit Golden Cliff.

This was, after all, the top sword sect in the Eastern Wilderness and the best ally of the Divine Wood Sect. The disciples of the two sects referred to each other as brothers.

As for Chen Mobai’s sword foundation, it was entirely elevated by the Casting Sword Ring.

It was very unstable.

The five of them drank until the end of this round of the True Disciple competition.

The last one on stage was Yuan Chiye, who won quite effortlessly.

However, after watching the competition, Chen Mobai knew that this time’s sect competition was going to be a breeze for him.

No one could match him!

in the seventh round, his opponent was another True Disciple from last year. However, his secret body-forging technique, which was claimed to be invulnerable during the Qi Cultivation stage, ended up knocked unconscious on the ground, bleeding from all orifices, after withstanding seven consecutive strikes of the Divine Wood Sword Qi from Chen Mobai.

In the eighth round, during the attention-grabbing twelve-to-six heats. Chen Mobai encountered the seventh ranked True Disciple from last year, from the Artifact Refining Department. Apart from a Rank-2 Magic Artifact borrowed from his department, he also had a Rank-2 Defensive Magic Weapon of his own.

This battle was the most difficult one that Chen Mobai had encountered in the competition. He couldn’t break through the opponent’s Defensive Magic Weapon with conventional means.

He could only use the Liquid Spiritual Power again to unleash the strongest attack of the Divine Wood Sword with the force equivalent to the Foundation Establishment level, and forcibly blast his opponent along with his Defensive Magic Weapon off the stage.

He advanced to the ninth round..
