The Urban Dao Child.

Yue Jing gave a low shout, "Sovereign stabbing the heavens."

In the next movement, she circulated the spirit energy in her shoulder and arm, letting it flow through and cover the sword blade. Her control was so subtle that the energy gathered at the tip of the sword. She took a step forward and her hand turned into an afterimage. 

  Yue Ming was surprised, he did not expect his weak sister to be able to give him such an attack. This attack was so strong that he did not dare to be careless. The streaming stabs approached him and the boy used his all to defend himself. Yang Dao had not only trained the girl into using the skills to the best but also imparted her own experiences. 

The stabs looked like they were chaotic but somehow they would all end up aiming at the vitals. The essence of the attacks was to aim at the vitals of the people and Yue Jing was able to do this quite efficiently. She manipulated the trajectory followed by her blade and attacked the same point from various angles. Her attack was a combination of her movement and sword skills.

She was moving around like a specter as she attacked. Stabs after stabs fell on Yue Ming's body as he desperately tried to defend himself, however, Yue Jing was not in the mood to give him a chance. Yang Dao had told her not to let the enemy off. The enemy will not be merciful to you if they faced-off. 

This thing she was well aware of, the humility she suffered in hands of her immediate family, the abandonment, the condemnation behind the walls. She was indignant as the attack progressed she became more ferocious. The tip of her sword was now able to avoid the defense of Yue Ming and leave shallow stab wounds. The latter felt an itching pain in his body and he had no idea what to do. 

Finding himself at a point where he could not counter he pulled out the tested card. He shouted, "Sister, do you wish to kill me? I am your own brother." 

If this was the Yue Jing from the past, she would have stopped the movement Yue Ming attacked her, however, she had changed. She ignored his words and said, "If you accept defeat, I will stop." 

Yue Ming could not believe what he heard, she did not intend to answer his call of blood. When he was dazed, Yue Jing exploited the opportunity and her sword tip landed on Yue Ming's throat. She stopped just in time where the tip was touching the skin and the spirit energy was breaking through his skin, drawing a trace of blood. 

Yue Ming did not even dare to gulp. For the first time ever his sister had turned out to be so lethal and that too in front of so many people. 

...

Outside the array, the disciples had given Yue Jing a moniker that she never would have thought of. They named her, "Sword Fairy, Yue Jing." 

The reason behind this name was that when she was fighting with her opponents, using her basic skills to the limit, she gave off the halo of heroism as if a fairy descending among the plebians and she became an inspiration to a lot of people who thought that they will always be strong. As the prime disciple of the alchemist supreme elder, the disciples were aware that Yue Jing was a soft-natured person yet today she had thoroughly shocked them. 

They did not expect this girl, who had never even been spotted talking in a loud voice will hold the sword and swipe the crowd. The elders were all satisfied with this. They all wished for their sect to grow stronger and Yue Jing coming out to be a sword maiden, just like a sword master, gaining a name for herself using basic skills. This will inspire a lot of disciples and this was what they needed for the sect to grow more. 

Yang Dao did not say anything but nodded. He said, "Elder Bai, Yue Ming has been defeated, right?" 

The elder was in a tough spot because the contender had not yet admitted defeat and he was standing but the moment he even dares to breathe heavily, it will be the end of everything. He did not know how to handle this. Just when he was about to take an action. Something happened. 

...

Inside the array one of the true disciples who were good friends with Yue Ming sneaked up and attacked Yue Jing from behind. The girl was aware of this and waited for the person to approach closer, and just when the boy stabbed at her with his spear, she vanished from her spot and the spear bearer felt a push from behind. 

His center of gravity changed and his spear advanced to stab Yue Ming due to this. Before the two of them could even understand what happened, the spear had made its way inside Yue Ming's stomach, right below the dantian. The boy froze and was about to take out the spear when he heard a soft voice, "You will break your dantian and become a cripple. You can admit defeat and someone outside will cure you. What will you gain by risking it all? Acknowledgment that you were an ignorant fool who did not realize what was more important?" 

The voice belonged to Yue Jing and at this moment they were no less than the sword penetrating through Yue Ming's pride and ego. He had lost and very thoroughly at that, no matter how much he wanted to deny this fact, he could not, after all, he could not lie to himself. 

Yue Ming sighed and said, "I accept defeat." 

Then his body vanished from the array and Yue Jing kicked his friend unconscious as well. The scene was projected to everyone. At this moment, they all acknowledged that Yue Jing was a sword fairy. But they did not know that this battle made Yue Jing acknowledge herself a little as well. 

...

Sun Eckhart said, "Dao, I have a task for you." 

The boy asked, "What is it, Master?" 

"Note down your comprehensions regarding the sovereign sword art," said Sun Eckhart. 

Given Yang Dao's intellect, he could guess what the man wanted to say. Sun Eckhart aimed to make the basic sword art available to every one of the disciples and then they all will be able to excel together. Where did Yang Dao have any problem with this? He replied, "Yes Master." 

The elders saw this and nodded in satisfaction. Asking a cultivator to share his comprehension could only be done when the relationship between the two parties was very close like a master and disciple, however, asking someone to make his experience public was a big thing and almost considered a taboo. 

Yang Dao could have rejected and no one would have been able to say anything against it. The reason was that everyone had their own comprehensions and ideas when they read on technique. Sun Eckhart was not a fool. Although, he was aware that he was not Yang Dao's master but he was also aware of the fact that the boy was a human reincarnation of the dao itself. Thus, if the disciples learned his comprehensions, they will not go astray and might even gain a unique path from the insights left by Yang Dao. 

...

Inside the array, the battles continued. Yue Jing did not take initiative to engage anyone but she did not back off when she was attacked. She ranked ninth among her generation of prime disciples. This was all thanks to her technique's uniqueness. The other people did not expect her to be so lethal with a sword and thus they lost. 

Yet latter opponents were able to figure out the weaknesses of her technique and executions. They all had a higher cultivation realm than her so Yue Jing had to withdraw when she could not move forward. This loss did not depress her but winded the flames in her heart even more. The opponent she lost to was a girl and she said, "You are very strong. I will look forward to sparing again together Yue Jing." 

This was something she did not expect. She recalled when Yang Dao said, "When you stare at the mirror the mirror is staring back at you." 

She acknowledged herself and her mindset changed to positive, this made the people around her acknowledge her as well. When she understood this, something in her mind clicked. 

...

Elder Jing Shui was paying attention to the mentality of her disciple after she came outside the array and she smiled and said, "Her soul cultivation advanced." 

Yang Dao said, "Now you know why I asked you to protect her?" 

The lady nodded and the boy smiled smugly. He asked, "So what is the next test?" 

Elder Bai chuckled and said, "All in good time, Dao." 

The boy scratched his head and said, "Why do all the elders say this same thing?" 

The elders all smiled and chuckled at this.
