Chapter 1462: 1462

The Sword House looked small from outside, but the world inside was very different from how it looked .

Jiang Chen talked big, but he was not just attempting to do something that he could not .

In fact, it was because of what Xiao Nuo had mentioned to him the previous day that he announced he would break the record .

“You are a swordsman now . The Sword House I built is at the Hundred Swords Peak . It has ultimate-level sword methods in there . You’ll get the chance to practice them as long as you can pass the twentieth challenge . ”

Jiang Chen asked Xiao Nuo why she did not impart them to him directly .

“Ultimate-level martial arts techniques aren’t just some average thing . Their mystery is beyond words . Even if I try to write them down in words, there is always something that will get lost . ”

That was what Xiao Nuo told him .

Jiang Chen recalled when he had got Azure Lotus Sword Classic . He had also fought with the white-clothed God of War movement by movement .

He came here particularly this day because Zhi Ruo had happened to mention the Hundred Swords Peak to him .

It was not true that he was extremely greedy for ultimate-level sword methods . Instead, he just wanted to improve his swordsmanship by studying ultimate-level sword methods .

Xiao Nuo told him the Sword House had restrictions of state forces .

The truth was state forces could offset the pressure created by the Sword House, and it was just a misunderstanding that the Sword House functioned differently by state .

It was fair to say that Jiang Chen knew the Sword House better than anyone from the Hundred Swords Peak .

Actually, this was not the only Sword House . There was another one not far away .

It happened to be available . Jiang Chen walked over since he did not have to wait there .

The stone door of the Sword House was open . It was as dark as pitch inside as if some monster had devoured all of the lights .

Under the crowd’s gaze, Jiang Chen threw out his chest and walked in .

As soon as he entered the house, the stone door was closed automatically .

Almost at the same time, the door of the other Sword House, which people had surrounded, was open .

The number on the stone became “Eleven” before anyone noticed .

“Haha . ”

Meng Kong, in white clothes, lifted his head and threw out his chest, feeling very proud of himself .

As a Martial Emperor, he had gone beyond the state limit of the Sword House!

He was ready to be received by cheers .

However, walking outside confidently, he saw no one there . The place looked desolate .

“What the hell?!”

Meng Kong was confused . There were a considerable number of people here when he went inside .

Usually, more and more people would have gathered here while he was in the Sword House .

“Has the celestial palace been eliminated?”

Meng Kong could not help but wonder .

He showed an odd face when he had looked toward the other Sword House nearby .

He was one of the most popular disciples at the Hundred Swords Peak .

He was surprised that his thunder had been stolen .

“Is First Chair in there?”

That was the only reasonable explanation Meng Kong could think of, but soon he saw Duanmu Rong in the crowd .

He walked over, full of doubts .

Outside that Sword House, those at the outer ring looked back unintentionally when they had heard footsteps . They were greatly surprised to see who was coming . They hurried to move aside and patted those in front of them on their shoulders to prompt them to do the same .

In this way, a way was open .

Meng Kong strode over as if it was something usual .

“Meng Kong, you have finished? How about your result?”

Duanmu Rong was surprised to see Meng Kong . She showed a bitter smile after noticing his facial expression .

She knew Meng Kong pretty well . She knew this great sword genius must be very unsatisfied at the moment .

“Eleven challenges,” Meng Kong said, deliberately dropping the pitch of his voice .

The others could not help but exclaim at his answer .

Even Duanmu Rong was surprised . Observing the change of Meng Kong’s disposition, she said, “You’ve advanced extremely fast since you joined the celestial palace . ”

“The credit goes to Leader the Venerable and the Sword House . The effect of the Sword House is beyond comparison, at least in the Realm of Divine Martial Arts!”

Speaking of this, Meng Kong turned serious . Then, looking towards the stone door, he asked who was in there .

“Our vice leader,” said Duanmu Rong .

“Vice leader!”

Meng Kong was shocked . Nothing seemed weird to him anymore, but then he realized it was not right because the current vice leader was no longer the person he admired .

Speaking of this, Meng Kong was quite reluctant to accept the fact that Zhang Tian had been forced to leave .

He did not think Zhang Tian had done anything wrong the previous day .

Even though he held Leader the Venerable in awe, he could not help but complain about her bad judgment .

“The man of yesterday?” Meng Kong asked, just in case he was wrong .

“Exactly . This vice leader is going to challenge the record of the former vice leader,” said Duanmu Rong .

“That means he’ll go through more than sixteen challenges? Are you kidding me?!”

It just slipped off Meng Kong’s tongue . He was really shocked .

Seeing his reaction, the others all laughed . They knew what that reaction was insinuating .

“Isn’t he just a Martial Emperor in the late stage?” said Meng Kong confusedly .

“Apprentice Elder Brother…”

Someone called him and then told him the whole story through holy awareness .

“I see!”

Meng Kong said in a drawn-out tone . Throwing Liu Neng a glance, he thought no wonder .

This Vice Leader was here to establish his prestige .

Since he was already unhappy because his thunder had been stolen, at the moment, he was desperate to see Jiang Chen make a fool out of himself .

“Look, the number has changed . ”

Some people noticed the number had changed from one to two while they were speaking .

It meant Jiang Chen had started the second challenge . No one was surprised at that .

After all, it would be way too ridiculous if he had even failed to pass the first challenge .

“It has changed again!”

“That’s fast!”

“Is there anything wrong with the Stone House?!”

However, then no one could stay calm anymore .

The number on the stone wall was changing ceaselessly, from two to three, from three to four, and on and on…

It became seven and then eight very soon .

Most people could not stay calm, because this was a result that most disciples of the Hundred Swords Peak could not achieve .

“This vice leader isn’t bad . ”

Recalling Jiang Chen was vice leader, they seemed to feel a little relieved .

However, then they were extremely shocked once again .

The number on the stone wall changed from eight to nine, and then from nine to ten .

Whenever the number changed, their hearts also beat faster .

It became eleven in the end!

Meng Kong, who was just onlooking, gnashed his teeth tightly, found it hard to believe .

Even Duanmu Rong walked over to the Sword House to check everything carefully . Then she turned around .

Facing the disciples of the Hundred Swords Peak, who were too shocked to bat an eye, she said, “The Sword House is working correctly . There is nothing wrong with it . ”

Her announcement started a great disturbance . Every disciple of the Hundred Swords Peak showed an astonished face .

“It has changed again!!”

Liu Neng shouted . His voice was hoarse . His face flushed . No one knew why he was so excited .

The number changed from eleven to twelve!

Meng Kong, although reluctant, felt helpless .

It took him half a day to finish eleven challenges . However, this guy leaped to the twelfth challenge in an instant!

Fortunately, this incredible speed finally slowed down .

However, since it would take some time for his performance to taper off, although he slowed down, he would still be able to pass the next a few challenges .

He was only four challenges away from the sixteenth challenge . Maybe he could really make it!

“Is his talent… really more dreadful than Apprentice Elder Brother Zhang Tian?”

Duanmu Rong murmured to herself . She recalled when she had been a teenager girl, Zhang Tian had impressed the entire Realm of Divine Martial Arts with his fast sword, and he had been the idol of thousands of teenager girls .

“It has been a new age . ”

She murmured after a good while, seemingly a little bit lost .
