The night enveloped the entire sky, and roars and growls could be heard from time to time. However, the inside of the Imperial Sword Sect seemed especially quiet.

Inside the room, Yang Fan had just finished reading the jade slip that was given to him when he entered the sect. The contents of the jade slip were quite complicated, and after reading it, not only did he not lose his confidence, it even made his path of cultivation even more firm.

He took out a cloth bag from his waist. It was the storage bag he had obtained from the registration office today. After putting the jade slip away, he recalled what Ling'er had told him today and took out a yellowed book from his bosom. It was the《 Nine Sword Arts》.

Yang Fan looked at the yellowed book and gently stroked its surface. After pondering for a long time, he finally said, "I thought I was just being smart and secretly cultivating, but I didn't know that mother took a fancy to everything. This book that father left behind was probably prepared for me. I have already firmly memorized the contents of the book. Mother told me to burn it down after memorizing it. It seems this technique is extraordinary. "

After looking at it for a while, he threw it into the brazier.

"Tomorrow's Large Competition is very important to me. This means that whether I can become a core disciple or not, I'll have to practice a bit more!" I also happen to want to see how I can use my mind to control things. "

His eyes were filled with a glimmer of anticipation as he sat down cross-legged and began to circulate his spirit energy, "The first of the five organs of the heart. Strength originates from the body and mind, the power of divinity is born, formless and formless … "Control your spiritual energy and concentrate it at one point, then replace it with spiritual energy to form invisible hands …

Complicated handprints continued to condense on his hand. Spiritual Energy interweaved on his hand and a halo surrounded it.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Yang Fan suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Capture!"

The coffee table on the table opposite him trembled slightly, leaving the small piece of the table behind. However, it only trembled for a little before it returned to its normal calm.

At this moment, Yang Fan was feeling extremely exhausted, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. In his heart, it seemed that controlling objects with one's mind wasn't that easy. Moreover, one's desire for strength of heart was also very high. He didn't know what the others were like.

Yang Fan didn't know that mental fortification was not something that the current him could control. Only those who had reached the Innate Realm would be able to practice it. Moreover, it was not so easy to grasp someone who had just entered the Nascent Realm. One had to go step by step to master it. If others had seen Yang Fan's performance just now, their jaws would have dropped to the ground.

Yang Fan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect the mental fortification to take so much effort. It seems like I'm in too much of a hurry to make progress. I still need to take one step at a time." I still have to fight tomorrow, so I can't let myself get too tired. After I recover, I need to go to sleep early or else I won't be able to fight my opponent tomorrow. "

At this moment, there were people discussing Yang Fan's group in another area. There were four people in the room. The other three men looked at the one sitting in front with fawning expressions, one of them said: "Young Master Qin, why are we retreating today? As long as we show them our might, they would obediently send those two beauties to us, allowing us to …"

The four people in the room were Qin Ye and the others who wanted to 'befriend' Yang Fan and the others. They were currently discussing this matter with ill intentions, as if they were unwilling to accept the sudden withdrawal today.

Qin Ye waved his hand to cut her off and said with a dark expression, "Mn, I know you won't accept this, but don't forget our purpose in coming here. If he caused trouble the moment he entered, he would probably be swept out of the house very soon. Furthermore, the strength of the person who fought against me has exceeded my expectations. I'm afraid that his strength is not ordinary.

The three people standing by Qin Ye's side had looks of disbelief on their faces as they exclaimed out loud, "H-how is this possible? Young Master Qin is one of the top three young experts of our Jade Mist Empire."

Speaking of this matter, Qin Ye also felt some fear in his heart. Logically speaking, such a powerful person shouldn't have appeared. How could such a powerful opponent appear out of nowhere? Furthermore, he had also taken the Heavenly Pill bestowed upon him by the Emperor, causing his strength to soar. To think that he would be defeated by an unknown brat, he felt extremely humiliated when he thought of this. If it wasn't for this mission …

"There's nothing impossible about that. We don't know much about it. Furthermore, I feel that the one who didn't make a move is the ruthless one."

Even though he didn't want to admit it, he still had to reveal his formidable relationship so that they wouldn't ruin his plans.

"This..." They obviously didn't believe it.

"Tomorrow, there should be many arena wars, and 20 people will be left in the five arenas before the competition. If there is a chance that they might join hands and knock them out of the arena, then..." As Qin Ye spoke, he made a cutting motion with his neck. His eyes were sinister and vicious.

"Understood." The three of them exchanged glances and nodded.

"Big Sister Mu, just let me sleep with you!" From one of the courtyards came the soft sound of pleading.

Xin Ha, I don't have the habit of sleeping in the same room with others. So it was Mu Sword Spirit who was half-closing the door to speak to Xin Ha outside the room. It was not that she did not allow it, but she had just met him and could not easily trust others.

At this moment, Xin Ha's eyes flashed. He suddenly asked, "Then you've never slept with Yang Fan before?"

Mu Sword Spirit was stunned by Xin Ha's question and her face revealed a slight shyness. She said weakly, "About that … This is different. "

Xin Ha finally sighed. "Alright! I understand. I'll be going then. I'll come again tomorrow morning to look for Big Sister Mu. "

"Yes!"

Mu Sword Spirit looked at the distant Xin Ha and let out a light breath, covering the room door with her hands.

The next day, the bright and beautiful sunlight had long since illuminated the entire Profound Sky Continent. Within the Sword Management Sect's territory, various types of mountain beasts were shuttling back and forth between the vast mountains, inadvertently emitting a few roars.

The enormous plaza of the Imperial Sword Gate had long since become packed with people. Five large arenas had risen up in the plaza, and a halo of light had surrounded them. With a single glance, one could tell that this wasn't an ordinary person's work. Near the entrance of the mountain, there was a group of elders' grandstand. There were a total of ten seats.

The scattered people were all whispering to each other.

"Hey, did you sleep well last night?"

"What, you didn't sleep well!"

"Who knows? It would be weird if I could sleep well with those roars. Otherwise, I would have woken up so early." A grumbling sound came from that person's mouth, occasionally hitting Hachi.

"What are you afraid of? The Imperial Sword Sect is an Immortal Cultivation Sect. If they can't even block this, then who would be so full of food as to build their sect in the mountains?"

"I'm curious about whether you will be able to enter the ring or become a core disciple. Tsk, tsk, that is a chance for you to reach the heavens in one step."

"Hmph, you think I don't know what you're thinking? Besides, don't you know how to fight? Why don't you give it a try? Why are you so concerned about me! "
