Chapter 1452: The Sun Rises in the East, I Alone Remain Undefeated

Chu Tiange thought carefully but could not find an answer. He let out a soft sigh and said, "Maybe my comprehension just isn't enough. On the path of the sword, talent is everything. Perhaps reaching the peak of novice sword will is already my limit."

"Not enough comprehension?" Ling Feng smiled faintly. "You reached novice sword will at twenty. After entering the Dongling Immortal Pool, you even ranked within the top thirty of the Creation Star Ranking. If that counts as poor comprehension, then what about all those who are worse than you? Should they just smash their heads against a wall?"

"Then... what is it?" Chu Tiange asked, clearly puzzled. As he looked at Ling Feng, he felt that the next words might finally clear the confusion that had troubled him for years.

"It's not that your comprehension is lacking. You changed!"

Ling Feng looked at him steadily and spoke each word with clarity. "Do you know what your sword will is called?"

Chu Tiange flushed slightly, clearly embarrassed. "Uh..." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Undefeated Sword Will, right?"

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes. "Back in the Earth Emperor Pool, we didn't truly fight, and you weren't going all out. Even so, I could still sense the shadow of your Undefeated Sword Will."

"Yes..." Chu Tiange nodded. Something stirred within him. He felt like he was on the verge of understanding, yet a thin veil still blocked his sight.

"Undefeated Sword Will places everything on an undefeated heart! No matter who you face or how powerful they are, as long as your heart does not yield, your sword will never lose!"

A deep light flickered in Ling Feng's eyes as he continued, "The sun rises in the east, I alone remain undefeated! That is the essence of your sword will. But what about now?"

He held Chu Tiange's gaze. "Is your undefeated heart still there?"

Chu Tiange trembled. A loud ringing filled his mind as memories surfaced. Ten years ago, he had lived within the small circle of his clan, unrivaled among his peers. Back then, he truly believed himself invincible. But now...

After a long silence, Chu Tiange took a deep breath. Gratitude filled his face as he bowed deeply to Ling Feng. "Junior Brother Ling, I understand now!"

In the next moment, a fierce battle will surged within him.

"My undefeated heart has been buried in dust for ten years. From today onward, it will never collapse again."

His eyes shone with renewed clarity and confidence. Then he looked at Ling Feng, his gaze burning with fighting spirit. "Junior Brother Ling, I look forward to our next match!"

Feeling that intense battle will, Ling Feng smiled and nodded. "Sure. But my sword heart allows no equal. When that time comes, I won't hold back!"

"Haha, Junior Brother Ling, thank you!"

Chu Tiange looked at Ling Feng deeply. Without those words, he might never have realized he had already lost the heart of a true expert.

Without that heart, his future achievements would have been limited. In time, he would have faded into the crowd.

"We're companions. There's no need for thanks."

Ling Feng gave his shoulder a light pat. With the others supporting him, he returned to his room and sat down to regulate his breathing.

Only today did Ling Feng truly understand the strength of those from the Hall of War. Yet instead of fear, a faint excitement rose within him.

He had come to the right place. This was where he could truly grow.

If he had remained in the Tianbai Empire, he might still be looking up at Great Emperors from afar.

...

On the other side, after leaving with Donghuang Xuanyi, Yuwen Liang grew more and more unwilling to accept what had happened. He gritted his teeth and said, "Senior Brother Donghuang, are you really going to let that brat off? He only managed to take your three moves by relying on strange secret arts and treasures."

"That's enough."

Donghuang Xuanyi shot him a cold glance. "I keep my word. Do you expect me to break it myself?"

Yuwen Liang immediately shrank back, not daring to speak further.

"No matter what, he managed to take three of my punches. That alone makes him noteworthy," Donghuang Xuanyi said flatly.

"But he... he clearly..." A trace of resentment flashed in Yuwen Liang's eyes. He could not accept that Donghuang Xuanyi had shown even a hint of appreciation toward Ling Feng.

That was the last thing he wanted.

"You don't need to feel unconvinced," Donghuang Xuanyi said, glancing at him. "If it were you, how many punches could you take from me?"

Yuwen Liang swallowed with difficulty. "How would I dare fight you, Senior Brother?"

Donghuang Xuanyi let out a cold laugh. "With your ability, you wouldn't even withstand a single punch!"

He paused briefly before continuing, "That boy has plenty of tricks. No wonder even Feng Shaoan fell to him."

"Are we just going to let him continue acting so arrogantly?" Yuwen Liang said through clenched teeth. "Think about it, Senior Brother. He took three of your moves without serious injury. Once word spreads, people will think he stands on equal footing with you. If this goes on, he might even try to step over you."

"He wouldn't dare!"

Donghuang Xuanyi frowned. "If this were a life and death battle, he would already be dead!"

"That may be true, but others won't see it that way. After this, he'll only grow more arrogant. In time, even those new disciples will stop taking us seriously."

Yuwen Liang kept pressing the issue, stirring trouble with every word.

Donghuang Xuanyi was not a fool. He shot him a sharp look. "Enough. Stop trying to stir up trouble."

Yuwen Liang forced a smile. "Senior Brother Donghuang, I'm only thinking about your reputation."

"I have eyes of my own. Do I need you to tell me what's what?"

Donghuang Xuanyi snorted coldly, then added, "Still, that boy does need to be taught a lesson."

A faint, chilling smile appeared on his lips. "He won't be proud for much longer!"
