Chapter 91 Showing Off Spectacturaly



Showing Off Spectacturaly

However, unlike the crowd, the Elder managed to keep his calm. And thanks to the help of Xue Bai\'s gender reveal he was finally able to guess Li Rou\'s identity.

"I see! So you must be the famous Young Duke Xue of The Great Xuan Empire. And this senior over here must be the prominent Peak Yellow Grade Alchemist Duchess Li! Forgive me for not recognizing you earlier." The Elder expertly spoke as he gave a curt bow.

Even Xue Bai was slightly surprised by how eloquently the Elder of the Soaring Sword Sect spoke. Usually, people from the Soaring Sword Sect were blunt, rash, and very direct with their interactions.

But this seemed to be the complete opposite. This Elder seemed to be extremely social and cultured to the point where he even gave both Xue Bai and Li Rou elegant titles instead of calling them by their names. It was to the point where even Xue Bai felt prideful of his title.

"It\'s fine, Elder. We didn\'t introduce ourselves, so if anything, it\'s our fault you didn\'t recognize us." Xue Bai spoke after he finished gloating mentally.

"So, Young Duke Xue, if I may ask, would you like to go through our entrance exam or join the sect directly?" The Elder asked as they made it to the registration desk.

"I can skip the entrance exam?" Xue Bai asked, slightly shocked.

"Of course you can, Young Duke Xue! You awakened a High Black Grade Martial Vein with a Fire Element affinity! Even if you were in our main sect, you\'d be admitted without going through a trial. Let alone this branch Soaring Sword Sect." The Elder laughed.

Hearing that, Xue Bai found it reasonable. Even the Sect Master of the Main Branch of the Soaring Sword Sect was only in the Mortality Shedding Realm. So Xue Bai, who could not only reach that Realm but also possibly advance beyond it, was someone who could have rules bent around.

After all, even if Xue Bai didn\'t fight a single time during his stay at the Sect but merely cultivated diligently for a few hundred years, he could still become a powerhouse in the Mortality Shedding Realm. And for a Sect in the Central Continent where power mattered most, that was definitely a good trade.

However, Xue Bai wanted to show off his talent and skills. So how could he not participate in the entrance exam?

\'I became a shut-in for more than five years just to show off at this moment. I am going to show off, and I am going to do it spectacularly!\' Xue Bai thought.

But on the surface, he kept his face calm and humble and spoke different words.

"Elder, no matter how talented I am, I disdain people who try to bend the rules for their benefit! I will take the entrance exam like any other potential disciple." Xue Bai replied righteously.

"Good words Young Duke Xue! That\'s the exact temperament a swordsman should have! Righteous and forthright! I\'ll sign you up right at this moment." The Elder laughed merrily as the way that he looked at Xue Bai changed.

\'I thought he would be like those other spoiled young masters and try to bend every rule of our sect as if it were their home. But it looks like I was wrong. This Xue Bai is destined to go places.\' The Elder thought as he transcribed Xue Bai\'s name onto a Jade Slip.

"Young Duke Xue, forgive me for being pervasive, but I still do need to check your Marital Vein and Cultivation Base." The Elder spoke after he finished writing Xue Bai\'s name down.

Xue Bai, who had no problem and was even slightly excited, nodded at the man\'s words. After all, revealing his heaven-defying cultivation base was surely the best way to show off, especially in such a large and diverse crowd.

"Young Duke Xue, pour your Elemental Essence into this stone. It will test your Martial Vein." The Elder instructed.

Obeying, Xue Bai poured in his Fire Element, but instead of doing it normally, Xue Bai, with precise control, managed to lower its purity far below its actual rank. While this trick was slightly hard to do, it was possible. However, since it served no positive purpose, no cultivator did it.

After all, unless you plan on going to play pig to eat the tiger, why would you want your Martial Vein rank known to be a lower rank than it actually was?

And after a few seconds, the stone lit up and portrayed Xue Bai\'s \'Martial Vein Rank.\'

"High Black Grade Fire Element Martial Vein!" A cold robotic voice boomed throughout the town square.

And as it did, it also gave birth to some intense debates within the crowd spectating Xue Bai.

"So the rumors were true. Xue Bai did awaken a better talent than Wang Yu."

"Then who do you think will win the title of Holy Son?"

"It\'s hard to say. But I still think Wang Yu is going to be the next Holy Son."

"Yea, you\'re right. After all, Xue Bai is still only 13 currently. Wang Yu is more than five years older than him."

"Indeed. Even if Xue Bai will have a higher peak, Wang Yu is still in the lead for now. I heard he reached the 6th stage of the Qi Sea Realm a month ago."

As the crowd tried analyzing the upcoming battle for the Holy Son between Xue Bai and Wang Yu, The Soaring Sword Sect Elder was so excited that his aging, wrinkled face turned rosy with enthusiasm.

"Good! Good! Good!" The Elder yelled out three times.

"Elder, where do I test my cultivation base?" Xue Bai calmly asked as he removed his hand from the testing stone.

However, since the Elder was still relishing in his excitement, the impatient Li Rou snorted loudly to remind him where he was.

Coming back to his senses thanks to the snort, the Elder quickly replied."Young Duke Xue, you can just take off your cultivation concealing artifact and let me examine it myself."

The Elder was at the Peak Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, so if it weren\'t for the cultivation-concealing artifact that Xue Bai wore, he would be able to tell his cultivation base easily.

"Yes, Elder." Xue Bai humbly replied while taking off his necklace, letting his cultivation base reveal itself.

However, while he acted humble, the reveal was anything but. Giving not only the Elder but also everyone stronger than Xue Bai the shock of their life.

"2nd stage of the Bone Strengthening Realm!" The Elder couldn\'t help but gasp at the reveal.

And like a rock thrown into a still lake, waves rippled in the crowd after the Elder\'s words.

"Xue Bai is in the Bone Strengthening Realm? How could that be? He\'s only supposed to be 13 this year!"

"He only awakened two years but advanced more than three entire realms? Is the Elder not mistaken?"

"Fool! The Elder is in the Domain Lord. How could his senses not work for a 13-year-old?"

"But still, even if Xue Bai started to cultivate at 10 or 9, isn\'t reaching the Bone Strengthening Realm at 13 something impossible? Wang Yu only had a Martial Vein Rank 1 rank lower, and yet he only reached the Bone Strengthening Realm at 15 and a half. Xue Bai is more than two years younger currently."

Xue Bai, the source of the commotion, was struggling to keep his inner smile from revealing itself.

\'Stay humble, Xue Bai! Stay humble. You can\'t reveal your true nature yet!\' Xue Bai mentally brainwashed himself.

"Young Duke Xue, you\'re extremely talented. You\'re making this old man feel useless." The Elder awkwardly spoke after he regained his composure.

"I\'m still much weaker than you, Elder, so you don\'t have to feel like that." Xue Bai replied humbly.

Though his comment helped to reduce some of the Elder\'s feelings, it still didn\'t completely erase them. And after he wrote down Xue Bai\'s 2nd stage Bone Strengthening Realm cultivation, he respectfully bid himself farewell.

The Elder feared if he stayed any longer, his Dao Heart would collapse.

"Young Duke Xue, I have registered you for the entrance exam. You can come then, and you\'ll be able to take it then." The Elder shouted as he walked back to his desk.

Giving the Elder a respectful bow, Xue Bai left the crowd. The group planned to find a nice hotel to stay in until the exams started.
