A moment later, he reacted and asked anxiously, “Sect master, did you make a mistake?”

“What mistake?” Pei Xuan clearly did not expect Li Ming to say such words.

Seeing the sect master looking at him as if nothing was wrong, Li Ming could only say, “I’m afraid that I can’t do this. Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan and Senior Brother Luo Ming can handle this. My meager strength is still far from enough…”

As his words trailed off, even Luo Ming found himself looking at Li Ming with a strange gaze.

Pei Xuan chuckled. “You’re really letting down your name like this.” He narrowed his eyes and said in a gentle tone, “When necessary, you can use the name of your sect. But in the same way, you must not back down from what the sect needs you to do.”

Li Ming’s heart skipped a beat.

He was dead! The sect master must have discovered his feats in the Departing Moon Sect!

The sect master’s gentle gaze felt no different from a sharp knife to Li Ming, causing his heart to tighten. He immediately retracted the words he was about to say.

“Yes, yes, yes! Of course! I was muddle-headed just now! It is naturally our duty as disciples of the sect to bring it glory. I am willing to give up everything for our sect!”

The sect master laughed and said, “There’s no need to sacrifice everything. As long as you fight with all your might, you will benefit greatly.”

Li Ming felt incredibly awkward, but fortunately, he was able to keep an expressionless face, concealing any flaws.

“Sect master, I thought that the slots for the Sword -Testing Conference were already filled?”

“Hehe, each of the local sects has a few spots. Alright, if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask your Senior Sister Li Fengying.”

“I’ve already given her full responsibility for the logistics of this competition.” Pei Xuan waved his hand and dismissed the two of them.

From the beginning to the end, Luo Ming did not say a word. He was like a wooden statue. Li Ming was too out of it to even say goodbye to him and simply went on his way.

Li Ming still had not come back to his senses when he arrived at the entrance of the valley. He never thought of participating in this Sword -Testing Conference. Although he coveted the prizes, he knew his limits.

When he was refining medicine, he had heard that this coming Sword-Testing

Conference was going to be the largest one in the history of the Heavenly Profound Continent, and it was also the one with the most people participating.

Although he had performed well in the Departing Moon Sect, it was mostly due to luck.

There were many young disciples on the continent, but those who could reach the golden core realm at such a young age were all people like Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan. The golden core realm was a watershed. If one could not cross it before the age of 30, then it would be difficult to make it much further.

Even though Li Ming had great confidence in Li Zhengxuan, his confidence would be greatly reduced if he were to compare Li Zhengxuan to the entire Heavenly Profound Continent. After all, Dongfu was only one of the thirteen towns on the Heavenly Profound Continent. Clans of all sizes were scattered all over the continent.

There were many sects and clans on the Heavenly Profound Continent.

Most of these clans were cultivators from generation to generation. They were no different from ordinary sects, but they were more old-fashioned and would not accept foreign cultivators.

Compared to sects, clans had far fewer resources and magical arts. However, they also had their own specialties. They did not have many cultivation techniques, but they had been improved by generations.

While the disciples of sects would have many cultivation techniques and magical arts to choose from, allowing them to become skilled in many things, the disciples from clans would master one or two magical arts to an extremely deep level. There were gains and losses to be had between the two.

If a cultivation clan had an outstanding disciple, the resources they received would be far more than that of an outstanding disciple in a sect.

There were so many experts. How could he, a mere foundation establishment disciple, participate? Li Ming’s mouth twitched.

In fact, he did not have high hopes for Luo Ming either. If there was any hope for the sect, it would probably lay with Li Zhengxuan.

Thinking of Li Zhengxuan, Li Ming could not help but feel a strong desire in his heart. How did he come out of the sword cave? This was also why Li Ming held some interest in this Sword -Testing Conference.

When the tablet spirit mentioned his senior brother, it would occasionally reveal a look of admiration because he had driven out all the yin fiends in the entire sword cave.

Forget it. Since it was practically just a formality, Li Ming made up his mind. Yes, he naturally had to put on a good show so that he would not be punished by the sect master.

Thinking of this, Li Ming threw this matter to the back of his mind and continued to do his own things.

Walking into the yard, he saw Lin Xue practicing her swordsmanship. She was sweating profusely and looked focused.

Li Ming did not say anything. He just watched quietly and nodded lightly. Lin Xue’s progress was very fast. Her [Blue Flower] sword art had already taken some shape.

To be honest, she was not very talented in the path of the sword. When Li Ming first taught her, he was only doing his part as a senior brother.

However, as Lin Xue’s progress got further and further, the effort she put in far exceeded Li Ming’s expectations, his attitude towards Lin Xue gradually changed, and he began providing her with more and more care.

The [Blue Flower] sword art was known for its gentleness. The deep blue sword light was sometimes thin and long, sometimes layered like an exquisite painting, and sometimes unrestrained like a huge painting.

Lin Xue’s current [Blue Flower] lacked killing intent, but it was lingering, feminine, and flexible. It had reached an outstanding level.

What surprised Li Ming the most was that her sword actually possessed a tenacious quality.

She was like a quiet and shy spider, lying on the porcelain and spitting out blue silk threads that weaved into a large blue net that enveloped the other party.

This [Blue Flower] really suited her!

Li Ming praised her in his heart and was happy for her. As long as she was given time, Lin Xue would definitely become a powerful sword cultivator.

As for the other variant in the original version of the [Blue Flower], Li Ming felt that there was no need to force it. Such a thing largely depended on the person’s temperament.

Lin Xue was not a straightforward person, so it would be difficult for her to understand this step.

Li Ming was not a person who followed the rules. On the contrary, he felt that if Lin Xue continued to develop like this, she would definitely find her own path.

Li Ming pondered for a moment and searched for sword arts that were useful to Lin Xue. Most of these sword arts were suitable for women.

Just as Lin Xue finished her cultivation, she looked up and saw Li Ming standing beside her. She could not help but catch her breath and say timidly, “Senior brother…”

“Mm.” Li Ming responded.

Seeing Lin Xue’s eyes start to become teary again, Li Ming felt a headache coming on. He quickly stuffed the jade slips into her hand and said seriously, “This is homework! Look at them! Don’t be lazy! Continue practicing!”

After saying that, he fled back to the small house.

This girl was pretty much perfect, if not for the fact that she was easy to cry.

Li Ming shook his head. He could not do anything about Lin Xue.

Forget it, I should just let her cultivate on her own. She’s already cultivated very well so far. Li Ming’s mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts.

Soon, Li Ming threw this matter to the back of his mind and began his daily training..
