As we all know, the Shushan Qing Sect is a somewhat underworld sect.
Since swordsmen rely heavily on "the breakthrough and enlightenment between life and death", the sect also intentionally encourages sword competitions between people of the same rank.
The most typical rule is that if someone asks you to initiate a sword fight, if you refuse, you will have to pay a large amount of spiritual stones.
This kind of atmosphere and environment makes everyone very aggressive. Even Senior Sister An, who has a gentle personality, has to pretend to be vicious, otherwise she will be treated as a soft persimmon.
In this way, Junior Sister Xu is actually more suitable to join the Qing sect on Shushan Mountain.
With her competitive personality, whenever she felt unhappy, she would go to a junior brother or sister to have a sword fight, and beat them by beating them, and she would immediately have an idea.
On the contrary, in Kunlun, everyone was busy breathing and refining qi, so she couldn't let go and held it in her heart. Wouldn't it be a flaw in her Taoist heart?
Alas, it’s all a matter of sect culture!
Qiu Changtian still remembers the time when Junior Sister Xu led the Asuras to kill the heavenly and human beings in the secret realm of the Leaving Palace Trial, and ushered in victory after victory.
At that time, there was indeed a pure smile on her face that came from deep in her heart.
Now, all he needs to do is repeat his old tricks and bring that smile back to his junior sister.
"Challenge fellow Kunlun disciples?" Xu Yinglian was confused for a moment, then became a little angry, "You want me to crush those junior brothers and sisters who are weaker than me?"
"Haha." Qiu Changtian shook his head and said with a smile, "You should be pitiful."
"What are you doing?" Xu Yinglian felt a little uncomfortable when she called her by his first name, and his attention was quickly diverted.
"If you don't look at your cultivation and just talk about swordsmanship, how do you compare to your third junior brother Guan Zhan?" Qiu Changtian asked with a smile.
"...Between brothers." Xu Yinglian said hesitantly.
"Between brothers?" Qiu Changtian said seriously, "How does the Kunlun swordsmanship compare with the Shushan swordsmanship, or even the secret swordsmanship of the Guan family in Longxi?"
Xu Yinglian was silent for a moment and sighed:
"It's not as good as that."
Qiu Changtian asked like a barrage:
"Since the exquisiteness of Kunlun's swordsmanship is far inferior to the secret swordsmanship of the Guan family in Longxi, which specializes in swordsmanship, then junior sister must have been immersed in swordsmanship for decades more than Junior Brother Guan in order to far surpass him in terms of combat experience.
?Or is it that Junior Sister’s swordsmanship talent is outstanding and cannot be matched by Junior Brother Guan?”
"I..." Xu Yinglian hesitated, and after a while he admitted insincerely, "In terms of swordsmanship alone, I may... well, indeed, I cannot definitely defeat Junior Brother Guan for the time being."
"Okay!" Qiu Changtian clapped his hands and laughed, "In that case, how about we try to improve your swordsmanship so that you can win against him?"
"Ah, this?" Xu Yinglian became confused.
As Qiu Changtian said, in terms of talent, he cannot stably defeat the opponent, and in terms of experience, he is also among the same, and he is far behind in terms of swordsmanship. How is it possible to win the opponent steadily in terms of swordsmanship alone?
Unless you rely on flying swords!
However, recently, Guan Zhan also received a tenth-level flying sword from the Li Palace Trial. I don’t have any advantage with this equipment, right?
"Junior sister, are you scared?" Qiu Changtian said with a smile.
"Afraid?" Xu Yinglian blurted out immediately, "How is that possible?!"
She originally wanted to subconsciously say, "I'm not even afraid of you, so how could I be afraid of my junior brother?", but thinking about it, it was too destructive to her own ambition and made her senior brother more prestige, so she forcibly changed her words to "how could it be possible".
"Then it's over!" Qiu Changtian laughed loudly, "Ying Lian, don't belittle yourself, you are my junior sister whom Qiu Changtian recognizes!"
[No enemies, synchronization value +1.]
"I'm not looking down on myself!" Xu Yinglian became angry and said in a low voice, "Humph, of course I know my own potential, but you can tell me, how can I defeat him in swordsmanship?"
"Of course you are going to fence with me!" Qiu Changtian said loudly.
………………
Xu Yinglian gritted his teeth.
When Qiu Changtian borrowed the training method from Jin Gangfeng Lin Duanshan and used her overwhelming swordsmanship to crush Xu Yinglian and push her to the limit, her subconscious reaction was to hold on for dear life.
Never run away, never show weakness, never admit defeat.
His performance was much better than that of Ling Yunpo back then.
Qiu Changtian secretly approved in his heart and said:
"Don't think about the strength gap between you and me. What you really want to defeat is your cowardly self that always wants to give up!"
"Of course I know!" Xu Yinglian said fiercely.
Her high concentration and long-term control of the flying sword brought her physical strength and will to the verge of collapse.
But she still gritted her teeth and mobilized her little remaining energy, and continued to urge Yu Jia to block the Jade Smoke Sword's attack.
"That's enough." Qiu Changtian suddenly put away his flying sword, "Take a rest first."
Xu Yinglian recalled Yu Jiajian tremblingly, and then slowly meditated on the bluestone next to her, recovering her true energy.
"Next, let's talk about your sword skills..." Qiu Changtian didn't let her rest.
Because this girl tends to have random thoughts when she is free.
Once your thoughts are wandering, it is easy to get into trouble and start to get mad.
Therefore, based on Ling Yunpo's sword training experience, Qiu Changtian planned to use the "high-pressure training method" for her, using a completely full training schedule to occupy all her time, leaving her no chance to think.
Sure enough, when "problems with swordsmanship" were mentioned, Xu Yinglian forced himself to listen even though he was exhausted.
Although he also used Kunlun swordsmanship, Qiu Changtian's swordsmanship skills at this time had already completely crushed Xu Yinglian by relying on the analogy in the way of swordsmanship.
Normally, this girl might not be able to accept the fact, "The gap between me and my senior brother is actually so big," but Xu Yinglian didn't have that time at this time.
She just listened attentively, absorbing the kendo knowledge Qiu Changtian instilled in her like a sponge.
There is always only one firm thought left in my heart, which keeps circling over and over again and cannot be driven away:
I must defeat Guan Zhan in swordsmanship!
Then, find a way to surpass your senior brother!
After a few days like this, he realized that his junior sister's swordsmanship had improved by leaps and bounds. Qiu Changtian announced the end of the training and took her to find Guan Zhan to challenge her with a sword.
"You don't need to cultivate, don't use Taoism, just focus on swordsmanship?" Guan Zhan, who didn't know why, said in shock when he heard this.
When it comes to swordsmanship alone, let alone Senior Sister Xu, even if Senior Brother Qiu came over, wasn't it easy for me to suppress them?
"That's right." Xu Yinglian said coldly.
At this time, although there was still a tired look on her face, her whole temperament was like a sword that had just been tempered in the water, cold and sharp.
"Okay." Guan Zhan also sneered.
If you want to humiliate yourself, it's not my fault.
Hearing that Senior Sister Xu was going to challenge Junior Brother Guan in swordsmanship, Chen Zhen and others couldn't stay in the cave any longer. They quickly took up their swords and followed Senior Brother Qiu to watch the battle.
