Donghai City Lord, Bai Tianyu!

Chapter 65 Donghai City Lord, Bai Tianyu! (Third Update)

Chen Fan turned his head...

At the edge of the training ground, a middle-aged man carrying a long sword stood side by side with his master, Zhang Hai.

The man appeared to be in his forties, with bright, piercing eyes that seemed to flash like lightning. He possessed an imposing and dignified air, as if his presence were as deep and imposing as a mountain.

Even though he was shorter than Chen Fan, he gave Chen Fan a strange feeling of having to look up at him!

What alarmed Chen Fan even more was...

Under the dim light, this person seemed to exude a strange aura, and from a distance, he looked like an unsheathed demonic sword!

Chen Fan quickly ran a few steps over and greeted him politely.

Zhang Hai glanced at the several beasts training diligently in the distance, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Don't be shy. This is your senior brother, Bai Tianyu. Tianyu is my younger brother's disciple and also the city lord of Donghai City."

Lord of Donghai City!

Bai Rugo's father?!

Chen Fan was taken aback.

He knew he would see Bai Tianyu sooner or later, but he never expected it to be so soon!

It's only the first day of school, and Master Zhang Hai actually brought Bai Tianyu here...

Bai Tianyu smiled slightly and said, "My senior uncle praised you highly, saying you are a genius. I was a little skeptical at first..."

"As a result, you signed a contract for your fourth beast tamer at the War God Academy this morning."

"Junior brother, you are so young, yet your talent is so extraordinary that even your senior brother is envious!"

Chen Fan hurriedly lowered his head: "Senior brother, you flatter me. Signing the fourth beast taming contract was purely by chance."

"There's no such thing as luck involved," Bai Tianyu said with a smile, shaking his head. "Without talent and strong soul power, you can't sign contracts with multiple beast tamers."

"Those below the fourth rank can theoretically only sign a contract with one beast tamer."

"People like Chu Xuan and Fang Qingqing have already signed contracts with three beast tamers before even reaching the second rank, which already makes them unparalleled geniuses."

"In the entire Donghai City, among the three major academies and five great families, only these seven people have emerged."

"The others... there are only two people, who have signed contracts for two beast tamers."

"So you actually signed four beast taming contracts... In the past thousand years, I'm afraid Chu Qingcheng is the only genius at this age who has signed four beast taming contracts."

"So, junior brother, you don't need to be modest."

"Whether it's your talent in beast taming or your talent in raising beasts, it can be described as extraordinary and unparalleled in the world!"

I heard the name Chu Qingcheng again.

But Chen Fan didn't ask any further questions.

After examining Chen Fan with great curiosity, Bai Tianyu said, "My senior uncle told me that you use a knife..."

"So after consulting with my master, I made a special trip here to teach you a set of sword skills."

"Knife skills!" Chen Fan's eyes lit up.

He was just marveling at his own "wild knife skills" when Senior Brother Bai actually delivered his knife skills right to his doorstep!

Bai Tianyu nodded slightly, stepped forward, and said, "Clear your mind and eliminate distracting thoughts."

Zhang Hai, who was standing nearby, was startled and hurriedly said, "Tianyu, you absolutely mustn't!"

Without turning his head, Bai Tianyu said, "Uncle-Master, there's no need to worry. It's just a little loss of soul power. I can recover in about half a year."

"This amount of soul power won't have a significant impact on my strength."

As he spoke, he pointed his fingers like a sword and gently touched Chen Fan's forehead.

Chen Fan felt a sudden jolt in his head as countless mysterious and profound pieces of information flooded into his mind.

"Nine Heaven-Severing Blades!"

A single slash shattered a thunderclap in mid-air!

In addition to the "Nine Heaven-Severing Blades" sword technique, Chen Fan also absorbed Bai Tianyu's insights from the first to the fourth sword strike in his mind!

suddenly!

With his eyes closed, Chen Fan noticed that a "cloud" above the system panel had begun to flash!

What happened?

Why did Bai Tianyu's transmission of sword skills trigger a system "cloud" reaction?

While receiving the power from Bai Tianyu, Chen Fan glanced at the system panel.

Above the system energy bar are many "clouds".

When he first activated the system, Chen Fan examined these cloud clusters and suspected that they might be skills that could be activated with energy in the future.

Chen Fan focused his mind and examined the cloud cluster that was shimmering with light.

Four slightly blurry characters appeared on the cloud: Nine Blades of Heaven-Severing!

What happened?

Was the Nine Heaven-Severing Blades that Bai Tianyu passed on to him a built-in feature of the system?

How then are the sword skills on the system transmitted to the outside world?

Chen Fan suppressed his shock and began to patiently accept the information transmitted by Bai Tianyu.

Thirty-five seconds later...

Bai Tianyu withdrew his finger, as if all his energy and spirit had been drained, completely lacking the domineering aura he had shown earlier!

"Senior Brother Bai, you..."

Although Chen Fan didn't know much about this kind of power transfer.

But from his master's earlier exclamation and Bai Tianyu's current weakened state, he understood that Bai Tianyu had expended a great deal of soul power to pass on his sword skills to him!

Bai Tianyu smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Don't think too much about it."

"I can replenish my soul power through cultivation, and it won't have a significant impact on my current strength."

"Only by using this method can I pass on to you everything I have learned from cultivating the 'Nine Blades of Heaven' over the years."

"Why..." Chen Fan's nose felt a little sore.

From childhood to adulthood, apart from the director of the orphanage, no one had ever been so kind to him.

Besides, this was the first time he and Bai Tianyu had met.

Even if it's for the sake of Master Zhang Hai, is it really necessary to go to this extent?

You'll find out later.

Bai Tianyu gently patted Chen Fan on the shoulder and said, "I have high expectations for your growth."

"Practice this swordsmanship diligently..."

"The Nine Blades of Heaven-Severing Technique was passed down from an earth-shattering being. It is no longer bound by material things or forms, but is the supreme and unparalleled sword technique in this world."

"My talent is limited. After so many years of cultivation, I have only managed to comprehend four of the sword techniques."

"Your soul power is strong. You're only eighteen years old and you've already signed contracts with four beast tamers. Your future achievements in the way of the sword will definitely far surpass mine."

"I hope that in the future you will build upon my foundation and thoroughly understand and master the Nine Swords Techniques!"

Zhang Hai said in a deep voice, "In all the main cities of the Tang Kingdom, the city lords need to reach the seventh rank... and only those who reach the seventh rank can be called grandmasters."

"Tianyu is the only city lord at the peak of the fifth level of the sixth rank."

"Just because he mastered the Nine Heaven-Severing Blades, reaching the fourth strike!"

Bai Tianyu chuckled and said, "Uncle-Master, couldn't you have said that after I left?"

Zhang Hai said with a smile, "I'm praising you, not mocking you..."

"Back then, you slew a seventh-rank Grandmaster with a single, devastating strike. How majestic and domineering that was!"

"In the vast Tang Kingdom, which seventh-rank Grandmaster would dare to look down on you?"

Bai Tianyu smiled and waved his hand: "Uncle-Master, you think too highly of me... After all these years of hard work, I still haven't mastered the fifth sword technique or broken through to the seventh rank. I feel really ashamed of my master."

"..." Chen Fan was filled with respect.

The further you progress in cultivation, the greater the difference between each level becomes.

Let alone a difference of one major realm, even a difference of one level of heaven can make a world of difference!

A peak sixth-rank cultivator actually killed a seventh-rank grandmaster with a single strike... It's simply unbelievable!

If Senior Brother Bai could break through to the seventh rank, or even comprehend the fifth sword technique, what a terrifying sight that would be.

"Nine Blades to Sever the Heavens"...
