Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 9: The First Battle, Sword Heart Shines

After assessing his own situation, Zhong Cang closed his eyes and continued his cultivation, eagerly anticipating what characteristics the advanced Five Beasts Infusion Technique would provide him.

And in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

With the help of You Tao, Zhong Cang managed to barely maintain his situation.

This relieved Zhong Cang, as he had somewhat given up on his role as a training supervisor, but leaving in such a dejected manner did not align with his intentions.

He felt that maintaining the current situation was just right.

However, unexpected events always seemed to occur.

Two more days passed, and on this day, Zhong Cang was meditating with his eyes closed.

But during his meditation, a proud and angry voice echoed in his training ground, accompanied by a scorching aura that directly attacked his body, causing him to involuntarily open his eyes.

"Hmph, another useless person. Are you all looking down on me?" The voice was crisp and petulant, and when Zhong Cang opened his eyes, he saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl pointing a sword at him with a dissatisfied expression.

This scene furrowed Zhong Cang's brow.

He helped up a companion who was groaning on the ground and asked about the situation.

"What happened?"

Although these companions, like the other supervisors, thought Zhong Cang was useless, they still showed respect on the surface when facing him.

At this moment, when faced with Zhong Cang's inquiry, one of the companions immediately explained the reason behind the little girl's anger.

"We are too weak..."

After listening, Zhong Cang realized that this was also related to You Tao. Just like a few days ago, You Tao would divert some client resources to Zhong Cang, allowing his subordinates to accompany them in practice.

However, today's client had cultivation at the third level of Qi Refining, but their strength was exceptionally strong. Zhong Cang's companions were no match for them.

Easily defeating the enemy prevented the girl from gaining any experience, which made her angry.

...

In this situation, Zhong Cang didn't know what to say.

On the other side, seeing the girl's anger, You Tao quickly ran over to handle the aftermath and find someone else to accompany the little girl in practice.

However, before You Tao arrived, Zhong Cang thought for a moment and stepped forward, coming in front of the girl.

"I'm sorry about earlier. Let me be your opponent now."

He couldn't let You Tao handle this matter.

Indeed, if he handled it himself, it would be easy for him.

But if such a thing were to happen, it would completely disappoint him. He wouldn't be able to expect any more client resources in the future.

Without the resources being diverted to him, he could only leave dejectedly, which would also disappoint his uncle, Zhong Kangping. This was not something Zhong Cang wanted to see.

Therefore, no matter what, he had to take action.

In addition to the reasons mentioned above, Zhong Cang also had the idea of testing his own strength.

Thinking of this, he smiled.

"With a blade in hand, the killing intent arises. And there is the saying that heroes cause chaos with their martial skills. These two phrases sum up the thoughts of those with great strength."

Zhong Cang wanted to step forward and retain the client in front of him. However, the girl clearly didn't trust him.

"You?"

Looking up at Zhong Cang, the girl snorted coldly, "Only at the third level of Qi Refining. Don't be like those useless people earlier who couldn't even take a single sword from me."

In response to this doubt, Zhong Cang shrugged and casually said, "Whether I can take it or not, we'll find out if we try. Besides, it won't waste much time, just one sword."

"...... That's true."

These words convinced the young girl. With her decisive and resolute character, as soon as she finished speaking, her delicate little hand firmly grasped the heavy sword in her hand.

Yes, a heavy sword. Although the young girl in front of him was petite, the sword she wielded was taller than her.

What caught Zhong Cang's attention even more was that at the moment the girl's small hand held the heavy sword, a "boom" sound erupted and a raging fire ignited from the sword.

Even though there was still some distance between Zhong Cang and the girl, he could feel the scorching heat of the flames.

This heat made Zhong Cang realize that the girl in front of him was definitely a formidable enemy. The four training partners under his command were not unjustly defeated.

"Boom!"

Just as Zhong Cang was lost in thought, a violent explosion sounded, and the girl made her move.

Her attack was not based solely on physical strength, but rather flames burst forth behind her, propelling her with intense fire and explosions. She flew towards Zhong Cang like an arrow released from a bow.

This attack method, as well as her speed, exceeded Zhong Cang's expectations.

However, just when Yan Lingdie thought she would easily win again, something unexpected happened.

When she rushed to Zhong Cang's side, Zhong Cang's expression suddenly changed from confusion to sharpness.

Beyond his demeanor, his body made the first move.

He twisted his body and drew his sword.

Just as Yan Lingdie's flaming heavy sword was about to strike, Zhong Cang's Maple Flower was also drawn out.

"Not good!"

The sudden change in demeanor made Yan Lingdie realize that something was wrong, and she instinctively increased the force in her hand.

However, it was all too late.

"Clang!"

"Sizzle..."

The swiftly drawn long sword blocked the heavy strike of the flaming heavy sword from the side, and with great agility, it slid along the twisting force, causing the heavy strike of the flaming heavy sword to slip away.

The heavy sword fell, but not the Maple Flower.

As light as a breeze, after sliding away the heavy sword with the twisting force, the Maple Flower was raised and cut off a strand of Yan Lingdie's hair.

This scene, although it takes a long time to describe, happened in an instant.

After that instant, the two separated, and only a strand of hair floated in the air.

Being able to cut off a strand of hair most likely meant being able to cut off a head.

There was no doubt that Zhong Cang had won this duel.

The young girl also knew it, but even in defeat, she was not convinced, only filled with anger.

"To pretend to be weak, how despicable!"

"Boom!"

After shouting in anger, the girl, consumed by humiliation, was once again engulfed in flames.

Then, engulfed in flames like a fire spirit, she wielded her sword and charged towards Zhong Cang.

"Buzz..."

The approaching girl was like a flaming sports car rushing towards him.

Seeing this scene, Zhong Cang felt no fear. His demeanor became even more fierce.

PS: Please bookmark and follow... The new book really needs these, I beg you!!!

I made some changes. Originally, I didn't want the novice Sword Heart to be too strong, and I wanted the protagonist to have a process of growth from weak to strong. But now it seems that readers don't really like this aspect.
