The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 708

Chapter 708


Jiang Chen's reaction put many people speechless . It was such a rare chance
to know Tian Ling in person, but his reaction was so plain .
Tian Ling was too surprised to come to herself as well . Throwing him a
glance, she went back to the pavilion .
The most important thing for a martial arts practicer was practicing .
Indulging in the four arts (Chinese zither playing, go playing, calligraphy and
painting) used to be thought as a waste of time .
The situation hadn't changed until someone combined martial arts techniques
and the four arts together, which started a trend to improve the martial
techniques level through the four arts .
By then the Civil and Martial Arts Institute started by Tian Ling even got so
popular in the Three Middle Realms .
Tian Ling's music was combined with the wind of the martial techniques of
lore .
However, most people on the scene couldn't get it . They thought it was only
some average music .
Not until then did many people who had scolded Jiang Chen realize how
shallow and insignificant they were .
"Our young lady spent half a year in learning this Chime of the Spirit of Wind .
This guy managed to play it after listening to it only once . That's terrific . "
Those from the Civil and Martial Arts Institute were even more shocked . A few
people could get the combination of music and the tune of wind, but they
didn't know this Chime of the Spirit of Wind required a lot to play .
To put it simply, Tian Ling had comprehended the lore of wind through playing
the Chime of the Spirit of Wind .
"Did he do that intentionally in order to get a chance to know young lady?"
Since it was too shocking, these women found it hard to believe .
"But it was young lady who gave him trouble first . "
This remark almost excluded all of the possibilities of a planned show .
Young Master Wind was that great indeed .
"It's just a small episode . Please don't let it ruin your mood . "

Sitting in the pavilion, Tian Ling didn't even draw the curtains .
"Not at all . "
Those who had shouted the loudest all stopped speaking . They were afraid
they would catch Jiang Chen's attention if they spoke .
Except one person .
"Young Master Wind, may I ask where you are from? You are so excellent . We
can't help but feel curious about you . "
Young Master Shenji kept smiling coldly . It was difficult to tell what was on his
mind from his tone .
"Where I am from isn't important . What's important is where I am going," Jiang
Chen said .
"Fantastic . " Although Young Master Shenji said so, his look turned colder and
colder .
Jiang Chen ignored him . He pushed the jade zither back into the pavilion, but
Tian Ling didn't take it . She waved her arm gently to push the zither back to
him .
"This zither suits Young Master Wind better than me . Please take it as an
apology from me," Tian Ling said .
The crowd felt very envious . Looking at that zither, their eyes lit up .

The zither wasn't any useful as a weapon, but it was Miss Tian Ling's zither!
It could be sold at a high price, equal to the value of a magic weapon or even
higher .
The thing was no one would be so stupid as to sell it .
"Fine . "
Jiang Chen took the zither . That was how this episode ended .
"As expected, you really enjoy staying in the limelight . "
Ji Yinyi said suddenly .
"Come on . I was just sitting here, behaving well . It was others who wanted to


give me trouble," Jiang Chen said helplessly .
Besides, if he weren't with Ji Yinyi, he could have just left the seat and stood
aside .

"The Title Battle will start soon . I wish everyone from Wing Prefecture will get
a good result," Tian Ling said gently .
"Thank you, Miss Tian Ling . "
The talented young people from Wing Prefecture said with one voice .
"I also hope today's Civil and Martial Arts Institute will be helpful for you . "
After that, Tian Ling gave a sign to start that night's Civil and Martial Arts
Institute formally .
There were no unnecessary conventional remarks . Neither was there any
liquor .
This was how formal the Civil and Martial Arts Institute was, and no one would

be unsatisfied with it .
"I'll show you a painting first . This painting will raise the curtain on tonight's
event," Tian Ling said .
Then two women appeared, one holding a wooden easel and the other
holding a scroll painting .
The easel was placed where everyone could see . Then they put the scroll on
the easel and unfolded it gradually .
When the scroll had been fully unfolded, exclaims kept coming .
It was a sword painted on it .
There was no background . It was just a sword with its tip pointing down on the
white paper .
The technique was amazing . Its delicate strokes made it look real .
However, comparing with the technique, the state revealed by the painting
was more eye-catching .
As the scroll was being unfolded, they felt they heard the sword chiming .
When they gazed at the sword, they felt a sharp energy coming head-on .
"This is Meng Shaobai's sword . He has got the title of Sword King . "


"While Meng Shaobai was painting, his sword kept chiming . It just wouldn't
stop . "
"When the last stroke had been done, the sky was illuminated by the radiance
of his sword . "

Tian Ling introduced to the participants .
The Sword King Meng Shaobai .
Everyone kept this name in mind, including Jiang Chen .
"Stay mindful in practicing martial arts techniques . When you manage to paint
it, you will gain a lot . "
While Tian Ling was speaking, those women put paper and ink on everyone's
table .
It was worth to mention that the woman preparing paper for Jiang Chen made
eyes at him .
Ji Yinyi, just next to Jiang Chen, noticed it . She pinched his waist with effort .
"What is this?" Jiang Chen looked over, puzzled .
Ji Yinyi looked away . She said, "I'm your fiancée now . I'm just doing what a
fiancée is supposed to do . "
Shaking his head, Jiang Chen didn't know what to say .
Ji Yinyi felt relieved when she had made sure Jiang Chen didn't take it too
seriously . She actually didn't know why she had done that, either .
The only explanation was Jiang Chen's performance had been too brilliant .
"My guests, if you want, you can try to paint your own weapons . You can also
appreciate Meng Shaobai's painting for some time before you start . "
Tian Ling was like a teacher in an institute, instructing her students and
assigning them homework .
"Miss Tian Ling, what if I can't paint?" someone asked .
"The technique isn't important . What matters is what you try to express
through your painting . Sometimes, the whole world is contained in a single
drop of ink," Tian Ling said .
Then they started to work, focusing on painting .


Before they started, most of them spent some time observing Meng Shaobai's
work .
So did Jiang Chen . He was gazing at the painting concentratedly . Gradually,
he felt something sprouting in him .
The martial arts techniques of lore of metal?

Jiang Chen realized what it was soon .
All weapons relied on the martial arts techniques of lore of metal .
However, it was kind of special for swordsmen, since metal could be replaced
with wind .
Certainly, it would be better to have both of them .
Jiang Chen perceived the perfect combination of the martial arts techniques of
wind and metal in this painting .
Sword King? I would like to meet him in person, Jiang Chen thought to
himself .
Jiang Chen had practiced through the four arts in the Realm of Nine Heavens,
and he had spent a lot of money on it .
What was different was this time there was no more outlines drawn on the
paper beforehand .
They would have to work everything out on their own to get a perfect painting .
Hoot!
Suddenly, a real sword chime came . It caught everyone's attention .
They looked over and saw Young Master Shenji's sword shaking violently .
However, Young Master Shenji didn't seem to have noticed it . He was
completely immersed in the world of painting .
In the end, the sword left the sheath automatically, flying into the air like a
flame .
This scene reminded the people what Tian Ling had just said .
The same thing had happened to the Sword King Meng Shaobai!
Many people looked at Young Master Shenji with admiration .
