Chapter 18: Experience

Chapter 18: Experience

At this critical moment, Yue Buqun appeared in front of the two men. Without saying a word, he quickly pressed down Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong’s shoulders and arms respectively. Purple air floated on his face and his internal force burst out.

The two people who were fighting fiercely suddenly felt an internal force that did not belong to them entering their bodies, causing their internal force to surge, their breathing to become disordered, and their hands to slow down a little.

Boom!

Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong were shocked and stepped back, and the swords in their hands fell out of their hands and fell to the ground with a clanging sound.

Jiang Ning’s body uncontrollably retreated four or five steps before he could steady himself, and the same happened to Linghu Chong on the opposite side.

“Ho…ho…”

Linghu Chong’s chest kept rising and falling. He steadied his breath and gasped heavily.

At this moment, he looked at Jiang Ning opposite him with a serious expression and his brows were tightly furrowed.

Suddenly, Linghu Chong felt a chill on his collar. He subconsciously reached out and touched it, and felt wetness on his fingertips.

Linghu Chong looked down and found blood on his fingertips. At the same time, there was a slight pain in his throat. When he reached out to touch his throat, the wetness on his hand became stronger.

His throat was broken, and although his trachea was not injured, blood was still oozing from the wound.

Seeing the blood on his hands, Linghu Chong felt a chill on the back of his head.

Jiang Ning on the opposite side was not in a much better condition. There was a scratch on his cold cheek, and the index and middle fingers of his left hand were bleeding, with bright red blood dripping onto the ground.

“Junior brother, are you okay?”

Linghu Chong looked at Jiang Ning opposite him and asked.

Jiang Ning shook his head and looked at the blood on Linghu Chong’s neck.

“I’m fine. Is the injury serious, Senior Brother?”

Linghu Chong smiled carefreely.

“It’s okay, just a skin injury.”

Yue Buqun frowned as he looked at the two men, and said in reproach, “How could you two be so ignorant of the seriousness of the situation? If I had been a little slower, you two would have been seriously injured at best, or even beheaded at worst.”

Although he was blaming him, Yue Buqun did not mean to blame him in his heart.

Swords have no eyes, and battles are full of accidents. Even in a competition, sometimes the fighting gets too intense and you can’t stop it just because you want to. At this time, you need a third party to intervene.

But despite this he still had to make a few verbal reproaches.

“Big Brother!”

“Little junior brother.”

At this time, all the Huashan disciples at the edge of the martial arts training ground rushed up.

Just now, Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong had been fighting very fiercely. They watched without blinking, enjoying the fight so much that they held their breath and dared not breathe out loudly, for fear of disturbing the two fighters. The last scene just now was too sudden, and they did not have time to react. They only came to their senses now and then hurriedly surrounded them.

“Big Brother!”

Yue Lingshan rushed to Linghu Chong and looked at the wound on his throat nervously, almost crying.

Lu Dayou originally wanted to come over, but his seat was occupied by Yue Lingshan, so he could only stand aside and look at Linghu Chong with a worried look on his face.

The main thing is that the blood on Linghu Chong’s throat is very scary.

“Little Junior Sister, don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Linghu Chong smiled gently.

Although there was bleeding in the throat, it was nothing serious, just a superficial injury.

Yue Lingshan looked at him, then looked at the blood on Jiang Ning’s cheek and hands not far away, and blamed: “You two are really stupid. You are brothers from the same sect, why are you fighting so seriously? Do you really have to decide the winner?”

Linghu Chong looked embarrassed.

He didn’t expect that what happened next would be so dangerous.

“Junior Brother Jiang Ning, are you okay?”

On the other side, Liang Fa asked with concern, and Du Lanyin, who was not far away, also had a concerned look on his face.

Jiang Ning shook his head slightly.

“Thank you for your concern, I’m fine.”

Yue Buqun then said: “The purpose of fighting among fellow disciples is not to determine the winner, but to discover one’s own shortcomings and improve them. You two should remember this and do not do it again.”

Ning Zhongze also frowned and said, “Your master is right.”

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong nodded.

Yue Buqun nodded, and then said to all the disciples: “Although your master’s wife and I have been away from Huashan for several months, and have not had time to check on your practice during this period, it seems that you are all practicing seriously and not lazy, and you are all doing well.”

After affirming the disciples’ diligence during this period, Yue Buqun said to Jiang Ning: “Ning’er has been practicing hard without any slacking off. You have made great progress and passed the test.”

After making the evaluation, Yue Buqun turned to look at Linghu Chong, but did not speak immediately. He frowned at first, then regained his composure.

His reaction made Linghu Chong nervous.

After a while.

Yue Buqun spoke slowly.

“Although Chong’er has a bad temper, he did work hard. Although he lost the upper hand at the beginning of the fight, he adjusted himself and made the right choice to turn the situation around. His overall performance was good, especially the counterattack at the end, which was very beautiful and passed.”

Linghu Chong heaved a long sigh of relief, and couldn’t help but beam with joy when he heard Yue Buqun’s last words.

“Master, the last move is a sword technique that I created with great effort and dedication. It is called Linghu Wushuang Sword.”

That was a move he painstakingly researched in order to deal with Jiang Ning. For this move, he had resisted drinking during this period of time.

“Yes, Not Bad.”

Yue Buqun nodded, that move was indeed good.

Yue Buqun then said to all the disciples, “Today’s internal assessment is over. The result of the duel between Linghu Chong and Jiang Ning is a draw.”

Another draw.

The Huashan disciples had no objection to this, and Linghu Chong did not think there was anything wrong with this outcome.

Jiang Ning also accepted the result.

In the last move just now, although he seemed to have caught Linghu Chong’s sword and was about to pierce Linghu Chong’s throat, the tip of his sword was still some distance away from Linghu Chong at that time. The wound on Linghu Chong’s throat was caused by his internal force attached to the sword, and the injury was not serious. The opponent still had time to react at that time.

And even if he killed Linghu Chong and won the victory at that time, Linghu Chong would have plenty of time to fight back. Even if they couldn’t die together, at least he would be able to make him lose a few fingers.

What’s more, Jiang Ning didn’t think he could kill the other party by just paying a few fingers.

The outcome is still unknown until the end.

It was for this reason that Yue Buqun gave the result of a draw, and he did not intend to favor either Jiang Ning or Linghu Chong.

The assessment within the sect has ended, and everyone is ready to leave after the master gives the order.

Yue Lingshan did not take part in the assessment.

This was not because she was the daughter of the headmaster and had the privilege of not having to take the test, but because all the disciples present had already completed the test and there was no one who could team up with Yue Lingshan. Yue Buqun simply waited until later and let Ning Zhongze test her alone.

“Okay, go down and get ready for breakfast.”

Yue Buqun waved his hand and asked his disciples to go and eat.

Although it was an internal examination and the disciples practiced in groups, it did not take much time after all the hard work and it was just dawn.

This may be the advantage of having few people in the sect.

“Yes.”

The Huashan disciples bowed and said yes before leaving.

“Master, I want to go down the mountain to gain experience.”

At this moment, a voice sounded, causing the Huashan disciples who were about to leave to stop and look towards the source of the voice. They were all stunned the next second.

Chapter 19: Yue Buqun became rich overnight?

Chapter 19: Yue Buqun became rich overnight?

Yue Buqun was also stunned and a little surprised.

Because it was Jiang Ning who said this.

“Why do you suddenly want to go down the mountain to gain experience?”

Yue Buqun was very curious.

Why does this otaku suddenly want to go out for a walk?

Linghu Chong also looked surprised.

Facing Yue Buqun’s question, Jiang Ning said calmly, “I have recently reached a bottleneck in my cultivation. I have not made any progress for a long time, resulting in half the effort with twice the results. So I feel that blindly practicing is inefficient. Going out to practice and gain some experience may help me. It can also broaden my horizons, so that I won’t just stay on Huashan Mountain and know nothing about the outside world. In the end, I will be like a frog in a well, only able to see the world from the bottom of the well.”

Jiang Ning’s words were well-reasoned and Yue Buqun couldn’t help but nod his head frequently. Linghu Chong couldn’t help but nod as well and wrote down all of Jiang Ning’s words.

Yue Buqun smiled and nodded, “Ning’er is right. Simply practicing hard is not the solution. Only by combining work and rest, seeing more of the outside world, and improving your state of mind, can you make rapid progress in the martial arts.”

After that, Yue Buqun waved his hand and said to all the disciples: “Since Ning’er has this idea, you have also stayed on Mount Hua for a long time. In order to reward you for your hard training in the past few months, I have decided to take you down the mountain to play and relax.”

The Huashan disciples cheered loudly.

“Good!”

“Finally we can go down the mountain and play!”

“I’m almost suffocating in this mountain.”

“Master is wise!!!”

Lu Dayou, Gao Genming and other Huashan disciples cheered and shouted loudly. Even the female disciples were excited, and some even shouted slogans exaggeratedly, “Long live junior brother!”
