Destined Martial Lord

Ye Fan stood to the side and listened to the comments of his seniors. He couldn't help but nod his head. These seniors of his were all sword arts experts, and their cultivation realms were far above his. Their comments were extremely useful to him.

Moreover, some of the seniors' comments were quite novel. It was something he had never thought of before. He suddenly felt that he had benefited greatly from it. Although it was just the first lesson, his comprehension of sword techniques and sword intent had both improved tremendously.

When he woke up in the morning to begin the class, the reviews continued all the way until noon. Finally, Elder Su gave a summary of Ye Fan's sword techniques.

"Ye Fan, your swordsmanship is pretty good. Your foundation is very solid, but your swordsmanship is of a low grade. This is a bit of a disadvantage." As Elder Su spoke, a sword manual appeared in his hand. He said to Ye Fan, "I see that your sword technique is suitable for the path of swordsmanship. I have an Earth Rank sword technique, « Thunderbolt Sword Technique » for you to learn first."

"Thank you, Master."

Ye Fan's eyes couldn't help but light up. An Earth Ranked sword technique was given to him so easily. If it were any other sect, it would definitely require a massive amount of contribution points!

From this, it could be seen that the Azure Cloud Sect had spared no effort in nurturing their disciples.

However, by now, Ye Fan already knew that the back mountain was not the true core of the Azure Cloud Sect. In the back mountain, there was a peak called Lingyun Peak, which was where the true elites of the Blue Cloud Sect gathered.

It was said that there were no more than a hundred disciples on Lingyun Peak, and only those who had truly profound cultivation methods and truly rare resources could obtain them after entering Lingyun Peak. The resources that the disciples of the rear mountains could not even obtain a tenth of the resources of the disciples of Lingyun Peak.

The conditions to enter Lingyun Peak were extremely harsh, stopping most of the geniuses in their steps. The Lingyun Peak disciples also became the most terrifying force within the Azure Cloud Sect, with the true power to suppress the heaven's pride experts!

Entering Lingyun Peak was Ye Fan's current number one goal. Only by entering Lingyun Peak and obtaining special training from the Blue Cloud Sect would he be able to step into the Heaven Realm within three years!

After evaluating Ye Fan's swordsmanship, many of the senior disciples left. Elder Su hadn't taken in disciples for decades, and Ye Fan's seniors could be considered to have their own jobs in the Azure Cloud Sect, so they all gathered together to spare time. After meeting up with everyone, they all went back to busy themselves.

"Master, I want to enter Lingyun Peak. I wonder what kind of conditions are required?"

Seeing that everyone had left, Ye Fan lowered his head and asked Elder Su.

"If you want to enter Lingyun Peak, the first condition is that you have to reach the Earth Realm before the age of eighteen. How old are you this year?"

Looking at Ye Fan's current appearance, he appeared to be a youth around the age of twenty. This was the reason why Elder Su had this question.

"Your disciple is soon going to be seventeen. I'm one year away from the eighteen year old standard."

Ye Fan replied in a low voice.

"Oh? So you're not even eighteen yet! "Since you have this thought, you should practice the sword techniques I gave you. I will be slightly partial to you in terms of resources soon. Come look for me again after your cultivation breaks through to the Earth Realm."

He never thought that Ye Fan would actually be only seventeen years old. There was still a year until he turned eighteen, and as long as he had enough resources, it shouldn't be a problem for him to complete the transformation from the eighth level of the Spirit Integration realm to the Soul Dueling realm.

"I understand, Master."

In other words, he hadn't even reached the basic requirements to enter Lingyun Peak yet.

After bidding Elder Su farewell, Ye Fan quickly returned to his own residence. As for the Thunderbolt Sword Technique, he only roughly read it once before putting it aside. Ye Fan, who had studied Ling Tian's sword manual, didn't need to practice this sort of Earth Ranked Sword Technique.

His main task now was to raise his cultivation level through the spirit materials he had obtained and enter the Soul Dueling Realm as soon as possible!

Entering the cultivation room, Ye Fan took out all of the resources he had on him, directly filling up more than half of the room. This didn't even include the gifts his seniors had given him.

Summoning his Astral Battle Soul, Ye Fan began to absorb and refine the spirit energy from the spirit materials. Ye Fan's realm was also slowly increasing!

The middle stage of the eighth level spirit realm.

Late eighth level of the Spirit Fusion Realm.

Early stage of the ninth level of the Spirit Fusion Realm.

It took three days before all of these spiritual materials were absorbed by Ye Fan. However, the amount of spiritual energy Ye Fan needed to break through to the next realm was simply too great. Even with so many spiritual materials, he had only been able to raise his cultivation by a small realm.

If he added in the gifts he had received, he might be able to break through the barrier of the Soul Dueling Realm.

However, Ye Fan didn't continue to cultivate. His body had just obtained a large amount of spiritual energy, so he needed to calm down and prepare for the next breakthrough.

Since he had nothing better to do, Ye Fan began practicing the Thunderbolt Sword Technique that Elder Su had given him. In the future, when he couldn't use the Heaven's Heaven Sword Technique, he would have a cover.

For ten consecutive days, Ye Fan was completely immersed in comprehending the Thunderbolt Sword Technique. Having trained in the Heaven Ranked Sword Technique, he would naturally be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort if he were to return to training in the Earth Ranked Sword Technique. He had already completely mastered the Thunderbolt Sword Technique.

"Azure Cloud Sect disciples, gather at the Heaven and Earth Palace!"

"Azure Cloud Sect disciples, gather at the Heaven and Earth Palace!"

"Azure Cloud Sect disciples, gather at the Heaven and Earth Palace!"

Just at this moment, three continuous loud shouts resounded through the entire Azure Cloud Sect. Ye Fan couldn't help but suddenly move.
