160 Don’t Fret
Daoist Yijian stood at the front. When he saw Dong Xi coming over, he asked, “You’re Dong Xi?”
“That’s right, I’m Dong Xi,” said Dong Xi immediately with cupped fists.
Daoist Yijian had never seen Dong Xi’s true appearance, but he had heard that this girl had joined Lingxu with Chi Yan, and she was an outer sect disciple.
The outer sect disciples did not have very good aptitudes. He did not know why Lingxu would accept such a disciple.
“Come, give me the spirit testing stone,” Master Yijian said.
Dong Xi was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and asked, “Master Yijian, do you need to look at your spirit root to practice the sword?”
Venerable Yijian’s face was solemn as he said indifferently, “It’s just for reference, don’t worry.”
Chi Yan had said that this Little Junior Sister was very powerful. After seeing her today, he realized that this girl’s cultivation had not dropped at all.
He had also heard from the disciples that Dong Xi had not slept since he entered the Ningtian Sect and had been cultivating at night.
Although cultivation could replace sleep, new disciples who had just come to the cultivation world were generally not used to it. It was rare to see someone like Dong Xi who had self-control.
Dong Xi knew that her aptitude was not good, but she was also born with a spirit root, so there was nothing to be ashamed of.
Dong Xi raised her hand and placed it on the spirit testing stone. Everyone from the Sword Sect watched closely.
Xiong Ye read out the numbers from the side.
When everyone heard this, they were instantly in an uproar. Even Dong Xi herself was a little shocked.
Something was wrong, something was very wrong.
Dong Xi could not help but suspect that the spirit testing stone of the Sword Sect might have been broken, so why was the value of her spirit root still rising?
Wood spirit root was already a pass!
However, the others did not know about this. These people were all inner sect disciples of the Sword Sect, and many of them had spirit roots that were above Dong Xi’s.
Dong Xi’s three spirit roots were not very high, but she could refine dozens of furnaces of medicinal pills every day. What right did these so-called geniuses have to not work hard?
The flames of fighting were instantly ignited in everyone’s hearts. Daoist Yijian asked indifferently, “I heard that you know a little bit of swordsmanship?”
“I only learned basic sword technique,” said Dong Xi with cupped fists.
“Then let’s take a look at your basic swordsmanship and chop the sword-testing stone,” Yijian said immediately.
Dong Xi took out her Purple Jade Sword and was just about to take action when Master Yijian shouted, “Wait a moment.”
Dong Xi turned her head to look. Daoist Yijian took the wooden sword from a nearby disciple and threw it to Dong Xi. Daoist Yijian said, “Use this!”
Dong Xi took the wooden sword, put away her Purple Jade Sword, and then walked to the sword-testing stone.
Dong Xi took a deep breath. The wooden sword was very light. Dong Xi raised it up and stabbed forward.
She left a hole as deep as a walnut on the sword-testing stone.
The scene was eerily silent. Even Master Yijian was dumbfounded.
Dong Xi obediently put away her wooden sword and cupped her fists at Daoist Yijian. “Master, I’ve already tried.”
When Daoist Yijian heard Dong Xi’s words, he came back to his senses and looked at Dong Xi, not knowing what to say.
Previously, Chi Yan had said that this Junior Sister black was powerful. How powerful could a little girl be powerful?
From the looks of it now, this little girl had actually comprehended the way of the sword on her own. Wasn’t it ridiculous?
After a long time, Master Yijian came back to his senses and said, “Very good, you’ve practiced your basic sword technique very well!”
Dong Xi was also very happy to be praised by the Sword Sect elder. She looked at Master Yijian and asked expectantly, “Master, can I join the Sword Sect?”
Master Yijian did not say whether she could or could not. His hand behind him was so clenched that it was about to leave a mark, but his face remained calm.
At this moment, the disciples of the swordsmanship sect were all very quiet. They were all looking at Master Yijian, even more nervous than Dong Xi.
After a moment, he said slowly, “Come with me.”
With that, Yijian unsheathed his sword and jumped up, flying towards his own mountain.
After making sure that no one could see him, Yijian could no longer hold back his laughter.
Lingxu, Oh Lingxu, I’m really sorry, but I’m definitely going to snatch this disciple of yours!
Dong Xi did not dare to delay when he saw Yijian leave. She was afraid that she would lose him, so she immediately used Earth Bending to follow.
Even though Daoist Yijian was already flying very slowly, he was still very fast to Dong Xi. In fact, Dong Xi felt that even chasing after the sun was not as difficult as she was now.
However, in everyone’s eyes, Dong Xi had already walked ten miles away in a few steps. Everyone was extremely shocked and spoke one after another.
“What is this movement technique, Junior Sister? I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before.”
“The world is so big, there are too many things you haven’t seen.”
“If I had this movement technique, I would definitely challenge Lei Yanhu again. At least I would be able to escape unscathed!”
“Don’t think about it. This movement technique is obviously not simple. It’s more practical for you to exchange for two Wind Speed Pils!”
