Chapter 298: Mo Jianfei
The Hero Palace held tests every month . Those who got excellent grades would be awarded, but those who got bad grades wouldn't be punished .
These tests aimed to motivate the disciples .
Talent was a given for them, since they had joined the Hero Palace . It was hard work that came into play next .
Ying Wushuang had only taken the test once, when she had first joined the Hero Palace .
After that, Ying Wushuang had never taken another one .
"The first item is to test how many turns you can manipulate your halos of heaven to make in an instant .
"The difficulty varies with your state and number of halos of heaven you have .
"In my case, I have two halos of heaven . The outside one is easier to control than the inside one .
"The test takes the average value as the result . "
This first item that Ying Wushuang had told Jiang Chen about was the source of her confidence .
The change brought about by the beads had convinced her that Jiang Chen could build something better than what the Hero Palace owned .
She told him about the next two items .
The first was about explosiveness, namely the most power a Reaching Heaven State could show in a moment with no further preparation .
The second was about the protective energy shield, the name explaining what it was . Reaching Heaven States would turn their power into an energy shield to envelop themselves for protection .
Fights between Reaching Heaven States were very intense . The vibrations caused by the fights could hurt their viscera unknowingly, so the protective energy shield was extremely important .
In fact, the three items the Hero Palace tested were all key points to decide how strong a Reaching Heaven State was .
Jiang Chen knew this clearly . That was why he had built the Heaven Halo Beads .
Ying Wushuang didn't have to urge him at all . He had almost finished building the practice equipment for the other two tests .
Ying Wushuang was relieved when she learned this .
Upon seeing the vague smile on Jiang Chen's face, she found him very reliable and reassuring .
Suddenly, both of them paled .
They had both sensed an aggressive strong energy at the door .
When they glanced at each other, they heard a blast from the yard's gate . The door was exploded into pieces, the fragments flying away with great power . A blunt fragment of the door even embedded into one wall of the yard .
The well-decorated yard had been totally destroyed .
A fragment flew at the two . Jiang Chen had to draw out his knife to ward it off .
Someone was standing at the door . They could only vaguely see his figure, but the energy given off by him was overwhelming .
Ying Wushuang became serious and said, "It's Mo Jianfei . "
Both she and Jiang Chen understood why he had come when she said his name .
Elder Du Yue couldn't do anything to Jiang Chen for the slap, but Mo Jianfei, as Murong Yuan's fiancée, had to do something .
If he didn't, he would lose his respected reputation as the president of the Sword Association .
They were just wondering how severe Mo Jianfei's revenge would be!
Ying Wushuang showed a complicated expression . She hadn't seen Mo Jianfei at all since she and Murong Yuan had turned against each other .
"Jiang Chen, you're not a match for him . Restrain yourself," Ying Wushuang said anxiously .
Mo Jianfei was ranked in the top ten on the Fighting Power List .
By this fact alone, he was way better than Jiang Chen .
"Don't worry . "
Jiang Chen was very calm . He strode out the door .
With a whoosh, a light attacked him, lightning fast, before he could even speak .
It was too fast . Jiang Chen, who had mastered the great doctrine of the creation of wind, was hit in the chest before he could realize what had happened .
It was a sword!
A sword that was still sheathed had hit Jiang Chen in the chest with great power .
The power was so great that Jiang Chen flew off the ground and fell on his face .
Before landing, Jiang Chen put his hands on the ground, withstanding the pain, to support himself and managed to get to his feet .
"Jiang Chen . "
Ying Wushuang hurried to run over and support him .
Jiang Chen flung off her hand and threw his shoulders back . The pain in his chest spread to the rest of his body .
The sword was back in its master's hand . The sheath of the sword looked quite normal, not eye-catching at all, but made entirely of darksteel, it was quite heavy .
The sword in the sheath was like a giant dragon, asleep . Once it woke up, the consequences would be unimaginable .
What surprised Jiang Chen was that his rival had been able to endow such a high speed to such a heavy thing .
If Mo Jianfei had really wanted to kill him, it would have been easy .
The smile on Jiang Chen's face faded when he thought about this . He looked very serious at that moment .
Mo Jianfei was approaching him, his upright figure becoming clearer and clearer to Jiang Chen . He looked serious, too .
He was in white, looking extraordinarily special .
His look was as cold as if he looked down on the whole world .
He was holding his sword in his left hand and drew it out with his right .
The sound of the unique, treasured sword drawn out of its sheath was the most beautiful sound in the world to a swordsman's ears .
The glow of the sword was like moonlight, white, bright, and omnipresent .
Ying Wushuang's pupils shrank . She shouted loudly, "Mo Jianfei, are you going to…"
Before she could finish, Mo Jianfei had launched an attack .
It was so fast that no one could see it .
Ying Wushuang hadn't seen Jiang Chen's right hand bleeding until Mo Jianfei had put his sword back into its sheath and turned around to leave .
Ah!
Jiang Chen shouted painfully . Not until then did he find out he had been injured .
His right arm was dangling weakly . The tendons in the hand he had used to slap Murong Yuan had been cut!
"As weak as you are, shouldn't you have hid yourself in a corner to work hard instead of running amuck? Haven't you asked yourself whether you could afford to start fights?"
Mo Jianfei stopped . He took out a white cloth and wiped the blood off the blade . He was doing it so casually that it seemed like merely a trivial matter .
Jiang Chen looked down and suddenly drew his sword out .
"The Sword Method of Ksana: The First Movement!"
Things slowed down . Falling leaves stopped flying in the air . The only thing that was still flowing was the astounding energy of the sword .
With a glint of the blade, Jiang Chen ran forward .
"Oh?"
Mo Jianfei became more serious, his posture not so casual anymore . At the same time as he was thinking, a shapeless field of energy enveloped him .
The blade attacked thousands of times in a second, but the attacks were all warded off by the force field .
"A great attack, but you're too weak to crack my force field . "
Mo Jianfei didn't turn around . He just punched backward .
The heavy punch hit against the Red Cloud Sword . Jiang Chen retreated to where he had been . With only one hand, he wasn't able to take the power of the punch . He lost control of his spiritual sword, and it flew away .
"Haha," Jiang Chen barked out a harsh laugh, although his condition didn't look good .
"What are you laughing at?" Mo Jianfei turned around and frowned .
"It was a fight between swords, but you used your force field . You already lost . When I catch up to you in state, I'll make you pay for the shame of today with your blood," said Jiang Chen .
"Ignorant . "
Mo Jianfei shook his head lightly and looked towards Ying Wushuang, "So that's your choice . What bad taste . I see . "
Ying Wushuang had refused him, and now, she was with Jiang Chen .
If Jiang Chen were excellent enough, he might have been jealous, but at that time, he only felt disdain .
"You think you can catch up to me . I'll smash your unrealistic illusion here and now to wake you up . "
Mo Jianfei was going to draw his sword out again intent on disabling Jiang Chen's left arm and making him a wasted person .
Even if his hand tendons could be repaired, he would still be greatly influenced .
"What a disgusting hypocrite . You just want to get rid of a threat, but you made it sound so pretty . Bring it on, if you're good enough!" Jiang Chen provoked .
