Chapter 25. Hand Over Your Head
Watch three times.
Learn a Yellow-grade sword technique?
The disciple couldn’t help but laugh angrily.
He started learning this technique at Foundation Establishment and barely mastered it after three years!
Even so, he was considered quite good among Foundation Establishment disciples.
Now a newly joined disciple claimed she could learn a Yellow-grade technique after watching just three times!
If she really learned it, what did that make him after struggling for three years?
The disciple sneered, “Anyone can make big claims. If you really learn it, I’ll cut off my head and give it to you!”
Yun Jin: “???”
She couldn’t help glancing at Ruan Jun, silently worried.
Another one offering to cut off his head.
If there were too many heads, where would she put them?
Yun Jin sighed, “Originally, I thought I could learn such a low-level technique in one viewing. But your proficiency is too low. This technique has five levels, and you’re only at the first level, right? Senior Brother, you’re too weak!”
If someone at the third level or above had demonstrated, she really could have learned it in one viewing.
Now, it would take a full three times.
What a waste of her time.
The disciple, angered by Yun Jin’s disdainful look, was about to say more.
But Yun Jin had already grown impatient, “Hurry up! My time is far more precious than yours.”
The disciple gritted his teeth and resentfully demonstrated the technique twice more. Then he coldly looked at Yun Jin and mocked, “Well? Have you learned it?”
Yun Jin said nothing, swiftly assuming the starting stance.
Surprisingly, her stance looked quite proper.
The disciple’s expression changed slightly.
Could she really have learned it after just three viewings?
No, impossible! It must be all form and no substance! She just mimicked the moves superficially!
Yun Jin casually demonstrated the sword technique.
The disciple stared intently, trying to find flaws in her swordplay.
But.
There were none.
Not a single mistake.
Not just the sword moves, but even the circulation of spiritual energy was perfectly replicated.
As she finished, Yun Jin lightly pointed her sword tip, sending a sword energy towards a nearby tree. The tree shook violently, leaves falling in a shower.
Everyone looked closely.
The fallen leaves on the ground formed three characters.
“Hand over head.”
Hand over head!
Everyone instinctively looked at that disciple.
He seemed to have suffered a huge blow, one hand clutching his chest tightly.
He stared at those three characters, his face turning bright red. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood!
Then he fell backwards, having fainted from sheer anger.
Someone hurriedly went to check on him. Seeing his internal energy in chaos and meridians disrupted, they quickly sent him for treatment.
Yun Jin calmly looked at the remaining four, “You four, come together. I’ll learn all your simple techniques at once.”
The four looked at each other, their expressions turning ugly.
The first disciple’s fate was still fresh in their minds. No one had expected that Yun Jin wasn’t bluffing. She had truly learned a high-level Yellow-grade sword technique after watching just three times.
Such terrifying talent…
Four words suddenly appeared in their minds.
Natural Sword Body.
Perhaps only the legendary Natural Sword Body could accomplish such a terrifying feat.
Did this Yun Jin before them truly possess such extraordinary talent?
Everyone grew somewhat apprehensive.
Ruan Jun’s face also darkened.
This Yun Jin indeed exceeded his expectations.
But the more talent she displayed, the more necessary it became to eliminate her!
“Senior Brother,” Ye Danxia timidly tugged at Ruan Jun’s sleeve, saying, “Little Jin is really amazing. I don’t think I can compare to her at all.”
She too had realized that Yun Jin’s talent seemed terrifying.
What if Senior Brother stopped helping her?
Seeing Ye Danxia like this, Ruan Jun’s heart trembled, a feeling of pity welling up, “We still don’t know how she’s cheating!”
In his heart, Ruan Jun harbored murderous intent. He couldn’t let this woman overshadow his Little Junior Sister.
This time, he must drive her out of Tianxing Sect. Once she lost her backing, he would secretly hunt her down and eliminate her completely.
Thinking of this, Ruan Jun sent a mental message to the four disciples, “Agree to her! When you four demonstrate together, deliberately make a few mistakes. Let’s see how she learns then!”
Right, they could deliberately make mistakes.
It couldn’t be too obvious, but they could introduce some minor errors in the details.
After seeing an incorrect version, could Yun Jin still reproduce the correct technique?
That would be preposterous.
This time, they were sure to win.
With this strategy in mind, one of the disciples stepped forward, “Since you requested it yourself, don’t say we four are bullying you.”
Yun Jin raised an eyebrow, asking curiously, “If I succeed again, will you all cut off your heads and give them to me?”
The disciples: “……”
One of them shouted angrily, “Enough nonsense! Watch carefully! We’ll only demonstrate three times!”
Fearing Yun Jin might say something else outrageous, they immediately began demonstrating their techniques.
Four sword techniques started simultaneously.
Four sword lights intertwined, interfering with each other.
Yun Jin remained completely unperturbed.
She leisurely sat down cross-legged, then took out a bag of melon seeds.
Notably, these were spirit melon seeds given by her Eldest Senior Brother, with a better taste than mortal ones and containing a small amount of spiritual energy.
Yun Jin quite enjoyed them.
After some thought, she also set out a teapot and began sipping tea leisurely.
Mainly because the seeds were too dry; she needed tea to moisten her throat.
Surely everyone could understand that.
On one side.
Sword lights crisscrossed.
On the other.
Crack, crack.
At first, everyone was watching the disciples demonstrate their techniques, but in the end, all eyes couldn’t help but turn to Yun Jin.
They had heard that this oddball was eating melon seeds during the sect entry test.
Now she was at it again?
Were these seeds really that good?
Yue Zhao and Si Wanning silently lowered their heads.
They had both been shocked by Yun Jin before and should have been used to it by now.
But at this moment, they still wished they could pretend not to know her.
The disciples finished their first demonstration, panting, only to see that Yun Jin had already eaten a pile of melon seeds.
Their faces turned ugly.
Yun Jin raised an eyebrow.
The system had completed its detection.
“Detected four high-level Yellow-grade sword techniques, found a total of nine errors. Do you want to correct them?”
Nine errors.
Yun Jin put down the melon seeds, revealing a meaningful expression.
“Correct them,” she said inwardly.
“Consuming three simplification chances, correcting all errors.”
The next moment, the system listed out all nine errors.
“Senior Brothers,” Yun Jin said calmly, “Have you truly mastered these techniques? Such simple sword techniques, and the four of you combined made nine mistakes? If I were you, I’d give up practicing swords altogether. It’s too embarrassing.”
Yun Jin’s expression was disdainful.
The disciples’ expressions instantly changed.
They had been very subtle, yet Yun Jin saw through them at a glance. She even stated the exact number of mistakes? Although they didn’t know if she was just guessing, her confident demeanor was truly unsettling.
This woman must be some kind of monster!
Shocked as they were, they couldn’t admit it.
One of them stubbornly said, “You’re talking nonsense! There were no mistakes in our demonstration! Don’t try to frame us just because you can’t learn it.”
Yun Jin smiled, “Is that so? Then I guess your level is really too low to even perform Yellow-grade techniques properly.”
Before they could argue, Yun Jin calmly pointed to the first person on the left, “You, at the tenth breath, why did your spiritual energy suddenly stagnate for a moment? At the fiftieth breath, are you sure that sword move was supposed to go that way?”
That disciple was dumbfounded.
He had only made those two deliberate mistakes.
Yun Jin had noticed them on her first viewing?
And pointed them out in front of everyone!
He instinctively looked towards Ruan Jun.
