“Back then, when Li You’an entered the Little Sacred Ranking, his ranking was better than yours, but not much better. However, from the day he entered the rankings, he began to challenge the geniuses on the Little Sacred Ranking.”

“He fought once every seven days with unstoppable force. Other than the Spring Quarter Examination, the rest of the time, he was either challenging or on the way.”

“He won every battle and nurtured an invincible aura. He accumulated a mouthful of righteous qi and became the top scholar of the Spring Quarter Examination and the Hall Examination!”

“After becoming the top scorer, he challenged the top of the Little Sacred Ranking after another seven days and won. The clouds of the Sacred Mountain opened for him and he climbed the mountain to converse with the Sacred

Teacher.”

The old man said with a smile. Even he sighed.

“Do you think it can be called a legend?”

When An Le heard this, he couldn’t help but yearn for it. The Legendary Top Scholar could indeed be called a legend. It was simply like a cheat life. It was really… amazing.

“Luo Qingchen, who entered Lin’an back then, took this path. Unfortunately… Luo Qingchen’s Tofu Dao heart is top-notch in the world. It’s very rare.” The old man couldn’t help but smile at the mention of Luo Qingchen.

“And this is not the most legendary. After Li You’an became the top scholar and conversed with the Sacred Teacher, he gave up Lin’an’s wealth and went to the Blue Wave River battlefield. Starting from a centurion, he relied on killing enemies to obtain military merits. In just a year, he became a deputy general.”

“He once led a hundred people and dared to cross the river and enter the main camp of the Yuan Meng Army. He captured the other party’s main general alive and safely crossed the river to return. He’s really domineering.”

The old man stroked his long eyebrows, his words filled with emotions.

“Fighting 3,000 miles with one body, once stopping a million experts with one sword… This is heroic qi!” An Le exclaimed in admiration.

When the old man heard this, he thought about it carefully and could not help but clap. “Well said.”

The two of them poured wine and drank. The warm old yellow wine had already turned cold, but there was not much left.

“I’m telling you about Li You’an today to let you understand the importance of belief. Next, I have hope for you. I hope that you can also be invincible and bring the spirit and boldness of winning consecutively to the top of the Little Sacred Ranking, the Spring Quarter Examination!” The old man’s eyes sparkled as he said.

An Le took a deep breath with a solemn expression, even though this request was indeed very difficult.

Not to mention the others, just Zhao Jiu, also called Prince Zhao Xianyou, who was ranked first on the Little Sacred Ranking, was a monster. He was known as the mortal immortal. His Body Tempering cultivation had already broken through the fifth realm and stepped into the sixth realm. No one in the younger generation could compare to him.

However, An Le did not give up like this. He raised his head like a tiger and was filled with heroic qi!

The old man stroked his beard and smiled. He raised his hand and waved at Green Mountain, which was inserted into the old locust tree.

Green Mountain trembled slightly and instantly left the tree hole, landing in the old man’s hand.

“I find you very pleasing to the eye, so I’ll teach you three moves. I hope you can comprehend them and make up for the gap in the sword technique profundity. It can also be considered as passing down my sword technique legacy.”

The old man slowly stood up.

He entered the courtyard with his sword in hand, bathed in the cold spring rain, and began to slowly dance with his sword.

“I named these three sword moves Bamboo Branch, Fragrant Grass, and Youth Travel respectively. Young Friend An, don’t tease me about the pretentious name of my sword technique. It was chosen by a beautiful woman who named them after lyrics. You’re still young and won’t understand such things.”

“Hahaha, young friend, watch.”

The old man laughed heartily and danced with Green Mountain.

The courtyard was filled with spring rain. It hung upside down in the sky and did not fall into the mortal world.

An Le had already stood up. After bowing, he observed seriously.

At this moment, the [Thousand-year Genius] Dao Fruit and the [Innate Swordsman] Dao Fruit seemed to emit an unprecedented aura.

An Le’s pupils reflected every move and move the old man made with Green Mountain.

That night, the old man danced freely with his sword like a young man, causing the spring rain in the sky to fall on the mortal world.

That night, An Le comprehended the Lyrical Three Swords and saw a romantic scene.

On the night of the spring rain, the battle for the Little Sacred Ranking on the West Lake came to an end.

The young master of the Duke Wang Residence, Wang Qinhe, was also known as a genius. He held the Little Sacred Token and was once famous in Lin’an.

However, such a genius was defeated by Master An, who was famous for painting ink bamboo.

Most people were not familiar with An Le, a newcomer on the Little Sacred Ranking However, at the mention of Master An, everyone in Lin’an Residence came to a realization. That ink bamboo had attracted the praise of the Headmaster and caused turmoil in the Literary Department. The scholars all had some understanding of it.

Therefore, after the spring rain stopped for the entire night, before the dawn light was clear, this news spread throughout Lin’an.

Master An was not only an ink bamboo master, but he was also a cultivation genius. He accepted the challenge of the young master of the Duke Wang Residence, Wang Qinhe, on the West Lake and defeated the other party forcefully, causing Wang Qinhe’s mentality to collapse. He lay dead on the lake for the entire night.

Some people said that Wang Qinhe might be like the genius Luo Qingchen back then, whose Dao heart was covered in dust!

This matter instantly became the topic of gossip for many dignitaries in Lin’an Prefecture. It was comparable to the interesting news of Qin Qianqiu being beaten up by Luo Qingchen a few days ago and hiding in the Vajra Bell like a coward.

Wang Qinhe and Qin Qianqiu had become Lin’an’s laughingstock.

Prime Minister Qin’s residence.

After the rain, the cold still lingered, and the sorrow of spring turned into melancholy.

Water Pavilion Pavilion.

The atmosphere was cold and silent.

The two of them, who had not slept the entire night, sat upright among them.

They looked at each other and could see the awkwardness in each other’s eyes.

The Duke Wang Residence and Prime Minister Qin’s Residence were in-laws, so Qin Qianqiu and Wang Qinhe had a good relationship. They were like brothers, but this time, the two brothers became jokes at the same time.

Wang Qinhe touched his nose. “Don’t look at me. My jokes sound better than yours. It’s just that I couldn’t calm down and challenged him. I was beaten up like a drowning dog.”

“It’s a little better than you being ridden like a turtle..”
