System Journey to Godhood - Chapter 123

Dammit! ” Damn! How dare you use that tone on me? How dare you look at me that way! ”

Xian Bu Yu gnashed his teeth; his voice brimming with boiling anger—on the verge of exploding.

How could he not see through the mockery behind those false apologies?

How could he miss the pity hiding inside those eyes?

Just as it had been in the past; to him, toward his mother.

It’s because of you, it’s because of you…’ His eyes grew cold, and he gave Snowy a death gaze that would have killed her a thousand times over.

Do you think you are really better than I am? Then I’ll show you how wrong you are!

The corner of his lips slowly curled upward, giving the onlooker an insidious vibe.

Just like in the previous match, Xiao Bu Yu struck his opponent in an aggressive manner using the exact same techniques that they used.

Once again, it was a profound-rank sword technique, and once again, his technique had a perfect state of comprehension.

Although the gallery had been quite surprised by Snowy’s performance before, Xian Bu Yu’s display made them wonder how far their capabilities compared to a genius was.

It was quite mind-blowing that Xian Bu Yu had been able to cultivate two profound-rank techniques to perfection level at the same time.

No matter how high Snowy’s comprehension was, to be able to reach a manifestation state for two different techniques from scratch was absolutely impossible and nonsense, right?

It was too much even for a seasoned sword grandmaster, let alone Snowy.

So, most of them shift their admiring gaze to Xian Bu Yu instead.

Ahh… This is how it’s supposed to be…

Hearing the cheers and exclamations from the crowds, Xian Bu Yu clenched her fist, basking in confidence.

Unfortunately, like a fragile mayfly, his illusion only lasts for a brief moment.

In the 12th round, Snowy got on the stage, overpowered her opponent using a similar technique that had been used by Xian Bu Yu previously, and like a sick joke, she had also cultivated the technique to will manifestation level.

The crowd went silent.

Aside from the fact that they had been able to enter the state of comprehension for the second time because of Snowy, their worldview was also flipped upside down by her abnormal talent.

Who am I?

Where am I?

Am I dreaming?

I refuse to believe this is real!

Just like that, Snowy gave them a public face-slap!

“Ah… We really are frog inside the well… the sky is truly vast, ah…”

Elder Nong sighed deeply in vexation.

He looked at Snowy with a complicated gaze.

He had spent more than twenty years of his lifespan in bitter cultivation after being a sword grandmaster in order to cultivate his main sword technique to the will manifestation level, yet a snotty brat no older than twenty years old had surpassed him in just seven hours.

Tofu… tofu… where is it…I want to die, banging my head against them.

Of course, the wailing in his heart was shared by everyone.

The matches continued.

In the 15th round, Xian Bu Yu used another profound-rank technique at the perfection level.

In the 17th round, Snowy ruthlessly performed the same technique in the will manifestation realm.

In the 22nd round, Xian Bu Yu refused to give up, executing another profound-rank technique.

In the 25th round, Snowy gave him another trample.

In the 28th round, Xian Bu Yu Xian

In the 29th round, Snowy re

What was supposed to be an examination turned into a public dao enlightenment as well as a public execution.

Xian Bu Yu was being wrecked over and over again by Snowy without needing a direct showdown.

His complexion turned red from anger and his eyes were bloodshot.

His dao heart was cracking, on the verge of collapsing.

Why do you need to exist?

Just why are you so brilliant?

You’re just a woman! No matter how strong you’re in the end, you will only become a sow, with the sole purpose of bearing a child for powerful men!

just like my mother.

Why are you ruining my life? My bright future?

Just like my damn mother!

It’s your fault! It’s all your fault!

He and Snowy couldn’t exist under the same sky anymore. One of them was destined to end in the netherworld.

As he saw the blood-red pill in his hand, his gaze turned calm; he had already made his decision.

Oblivious to the ominous thoughts spiraling in Xian Bu Yu’s head, the examination round continued as it is.

***

On the other hand, the matches were proceeding smoothly on the other stage without many twists and turns.

In the first stage, Qi Ying’er was dominating her opponent with her fiery technique. She had successfully learned the Flaming Sword technique and, due to having the enlightenment, it had reached the small success realm.

It was noted that the Flaming Sword techniques were a part of an upper Earth-rank combination technique, although it wasn’t an upper Earth-rank by itself, it could be said at the level of peak lower Profound-rank technique.

Being able to reach such comprehension in just seven hours showed that her compatibility with the sword was quite high.

Similar to Qi Ying’er, the other twin, Qi Ning’er, didn’t suffer any defeat in the second stage.

Using Frosty Sword technique that had been cultivated to small success realm, no one could land any damage to her, and every opponent was defeated in one strike.

Due to her gentle nature and warm smile—as well as the strength she had displayed—by now, she had accidentally gained several additional “little sisters” and “little brothers”, looking at her with admiration.

On Meng Qi’s stage, her Trinity Sword made her stand unopposed. As a member of the Meng Clan, one of the behemoths in Sword City, her proficiency in the sword technique that had touched the great success realm was a testament to the prowess of the big clan under the Heaven Sword Sect.

If not for freaks like Snowy and Xian Bu Yu, her attainment in sword cultivation could be said to be the best amongst the current batch of new disciples.

Of course, it didn’t mean that she was weak.

At least she wasn’t any weaker than Xian Bu Yu or the Qi Twin.

Her performance didn’t let down the effort of her clan to provide her with resources and guidance.

Meng Qi collected her winning points like peaches in the spring.

The third stage also went smoothly without a hitch.

Only the fifth stage was full of commotion.

The frequent showing of sword intent by Snowy caught the attention of elders and examinees in other stages.

Knowing that they get enlightenment like Chinese cabbage, they’d all drool in envy.

Almost all unintentionally agreed to delay their respective matches to be able to see the show of will manifestation by Snowy.

Even the elder didn’t want to leave behind such an opportunity.

Meng Qi and the Qi twin met together.

“Wow… Snowy, she is so strong! ” Qi Ying’er gasped in excitement.

“I thought that our level’s gap wasn’t that big, but it seems that even if we cultivate madly from morning to night, we still can’t catch her tail.” Qi Ning’er’s expression was complicated, but her tone was spirited and determined.

“Hmm.” Meng Qi nodded, “It doesn’t matter. One day, I’ll beat her. ”

“Yes, yes, Sister Meng Qi is right! But now, we should quickly get a place to watch the matches in the fifth stage. If not, we will lose our chance to deepen our understanding of the sword! ”

“Let’s go!”

There were just a few more rounds left before the decisive match between Snowy and Xian Bu Yu started.
