It was rumored that some demons had mastered some kind of art and technique that allowed them to speak the human tongue.

Naturally, those demons were extremely powerful.

“Where’s the demon? Don’t eat me, please don’t eat me!”

That giant bird was so frightened that it fell onto the ground. Its wings covered its eyes as it bawled loudly for mercy.

“I was referring to you.” Lin Feng spoke to the giant bird.

“You are the demon! Your whole family are demons! I’m the imposing, elegant, and impressive crested myna.”

Lin Feng touched his chin and mumbled, “Are there mynas of this size?”

“Brat, are you doubting your grandfather myna’s words?” The myna glared at Lin Feng angrily.

“Damn bird, get out of here and guard the entrance for me.” At this moment, a large slipper was tossed over. It directly slammed into the bird’s head.

“So smelly, it’s so smelly!” the myna cried in dissatisfaction.

“If you disturb your daddy’s sleep again, your daddy is going to kill and roast you.” A fatty walked out.

“Disciple Lin Feng is here to choose a martial skill.” Lin Feng held back his laughter and spoke.

The fatty’s eyes gleamed. He then spoke, “So you are the little brat that displayed your brilliance in the inner court examination? Not bad, not bad. You are much more pleasing to the eye than what this old man has imagined. The Long River Branch Court isn’t bad this year and actually managed to recruit a genius student like you. During the inter-competition between the four branch courts, we still have to depend on students like you to gain some face back for the Long River Branch Court. Haha, come with me.”

The fat old man led the way.

“Might I ask how should I address senior?” Lin Feng asked.

“You can call me Elder Tianxuan,” the fat old man replied.

“Senior, what was that giant bird earlier? How could it speak the human tongue? It said that it is just a crested myna, but how can there be such a gigantic myna in the world?” Lin Feng asked.

When speaking of that bird, Elder Tianxuan also had a helpless look on his face. He replied, “Ten years ago, I encountered a spirit bird by accident in the Desolate Forest. At that time, the myna was only palm-size and it could speak the human tongue. I initially thought that it was a demon beast that had gained sentience, so I brought it back to the academy. Who knew that this damnable bird only knows how to speak and laze about but doesn’t seem to know anything else.”

“Ah, damn fatty. You are not permitted to say bad things about me!” From outside, the giant bird cried out in dissatisfaction.

“So rude. I’m going to stew you tonight,” Elder Tianxuan shouted.

“I’m wrong, please don’t stew me!” The giant bird started to beg for mercy again.

Lin Feng’s lips twitched. He then followed Elder Tianxuan to the Skills Pavilion.

Usually, for students who just joined the inner court, they could only gain access to yellow-tier martial skills. Unless the student had contributions to the academy, they wouldn’t be able to gain access to mystic-tier martial skills.

However, because Lin Feng’s talent was shocking, the Long River Branch Court clearly wanted to nurture him heavily. This was why Gongyang Ming had given ten Mighty Dragon Subduing Pills to Lin Feng and allowed him to come here to choose a mystic-tier skill for his cultivation.

“All the mystic-tier skills are here.” Elder Tianxuan brought Lin Feng to the second level.

Above the shelves, over ten scrolls could be seen.

Lin Feng walked toward them and opened the first one he saw.

Autumn Rain Sword Art: The autumn means coldness, and the evening rain is perpetual. The sword would produce frost with rain-like sword intent.

This Autumn Rain Sword Art was created by a woman, and it brimmed with sorrow like the season.

Lin Feng placed the scroll down and opened the second one.

Crazy Sword Slash: Gathering all true qi in one’s body and concentrating them into a crazy and violent sword qi before releasing them in a single slash.

Iaido technique: Emphasized on speed as quick as lightning.

Spring Swordplay…

Lin Feng finished viewing these scrolls. They were all low-grade mystic-tier sword arts. Each of them contained immense might and had their own unique points.

Lin Feng then took up the last scroll and opened it.

Grand Day Long River Sword Art: mid-grade mystic-tier. When this sword art is cultivated to the peak, one’s sword qi would be like a long river, cutting across the void.

This Grand Day Long River Sword Art was undoubtedly an ultimate art of the Long River Branch Court. Its power was extraordinary.

“Which one should I choose?” Lin Feng furrowed his brows.

All of a sudden, his gaze turned to a corner.

At that corner, there was also a scroll placed there. It seemed that it had been a very long time since anyone had picked it up. There was actually a layer of dust on the scroll.

“Mhm?” Lin Feng was bewildered. He walked over and opened the scroll.

“Blazing Sun Sword Art: Legendary earth-grade sword art. Once one masters this, a blazing sun would rise into the air. A slash using this art would cause a blazing sun to descend to the world, containing the might to destroy the heavens and earth.”

“Earth-tier!”

Lin Feng was shocked. Martial skills of this tier were considered legendary.

Elder Tianxuan, who was at the side, narrowed his eyes and spoke, “This Blazing Sun Sword Art used to be the number one sword art in the True Martial Country. But sadly, it is fragmented. For those who cultivated this art, they had exploded and died because they couldn’t control the blazing sun sword qi that formed in their bodies. Hence, I advise you to give this up and choose another martial skill.”

“A fragmented swordplay?”

Lin Feng felt pity.

Just when he was about to put it down, the mysterious bead in his dantian suddenly trembled slightly.

Lin Feng was startled. The mysterious magic bead had extremely bizarre origins, and his own transformation had a close connection with it. Now, this mysterious bead actually trembled slightly, could it be because of this Blazing Sun Sword Art?

Lin Feng’s heart stirred as he spoke, “Elder, this disciple decided to select the Blazing Sun Sword Art.”

“Hmph, young people are always so full of themselves. If they don’t ram head-on into a wall, they won’t turn back,” Elder Tianxuan coldly snorted, seeming somewhat angry. But after that, he spoke, “Alright then, since you wish to cultivate this, you can take it. But once you find out that you cannot control the sword qi in your body, you have to stop cultivating immediately. Return and I will exchange another sword art for you to learn.”

“Many thanks, elder. This disciple will remember your advice.”

Lin Feng bided farewell to Elder Tianxuan and exited the Skills Pavilion.

“Junior brother, which sword art did you choose? Was it the Iaido technique? Or the Nine Immortals Soaring the Skies Sword Art? Or could it be the Crazy Sword Slash? These sword arts at the mystic-tiers all have their own unique points and are extremely powerful as well as being suitable for us to cultivate.” Zhang Qichu smiled as he asked.

“I chose this sword art.” Lin Feng passed the scroll to Zhang Qichu.

When Zhang Qichu saw this, he cried out in shock. “The Blazing Sun Sword Art. It’s rumored that this sword art is an earth-tier one, containing boundless might. However, it’s impossible for anyone to master this. Why did junior apprentice brother choose this? Junior brother, let’s go and plead with Elder Tianxuan. You must choose another one.”

Lin Feng laughed and replied, “Senior brother, don’t need to worry. I only pick this to do some research. If I discover something wrong with my body when I cultivate it, I will immediately stop. Elder Tianxuan has also said that if I cannot master this, I can pick another sword art.”

“If you can still pick one more sword art, that would be good.” Zhang Qichu nodded and passed the Blazing Sun Sword Art back to Lin Feng.

After returning to their lodgings, Lin Feng went back to his room and opened the Blazing Sun Sword Art.

“A part of this sword art is missing; it is clearly fragmented. There’s truly no way to master this, but why did the mysterious bead resonate because of it? I wonder what’s the reason?” Lin Feng mused silently.

Bzz~

At this moment, the mysterious magic bead in Lin Feng’s dantian trembled again.

Next, a magical light radiated out, shining upon the Blazing Sun Sword Art’s scroll and a strange transformation manifested!
