As soon as Wei Minghua finished speaking, the crowd cheered.
He Yong turned his gaze to Meng Fan, who was standing on the stage.
He shook his head. “Maybe the sword Qi had already entered his body, and you didn’t notice it.”
The cultivation of the Acquired Sword Heart wasn’t something that could be accomplished overnight. There was a process. In He Yong’s opinion, Wei Minghua didn’t know about it.
Wei Minghua sneered. “Impossible! At the time, I even called him to the office to personally watch him draw his sword! Meng Fan definitely didn’t have the Acquired Sword Heart at the time, nor did he have any signs of the sword Qi entering his body. If I couldn’t see anything at such a close distance, I would have gouged out my eyeballs! At the time, that child was just an ordinary person. There was nothing special about him.”
He Yong frowned. “Are you saying that within half a month, this child was nurtured to develop an Acquired Sword Heart?”
He Yong found the answer hard to believe.
After all, the cultivation of an Acquired Sword Heart was not that easy. Generally speaking, it could take years, and there was even a high chance of failure.
But Meng Fan, in just half a month, was directly nurtured to develop an Acquired Sword Heart?
He turned his gaze to the relaxed Lu Ping with his arms crossed.
He heard Wei Minghua mutter, “No wonder Lu Ping said Meng Fan was an unpolished gem. At the time, I didn’t think much of it. I didn’t think he could use half a month to nurture Meng Fan to get an Acquired Sword Heart! From the looks of it, Lu Ping is definitely not ordinary!”
He Yong was just about to speak when Xue Luoyan waved his hand and smiled. “Don’t worry about it. Since I’ve set him as the primary school’s star to be, there’s naturally something outstanding about him. Just continue watching the match!”
From Xue Luoyan’s point of view, with Lu Ping’s “background”, it was perfectly normal for him to have some strange tricks up his sleeve.
After all, cultivators had many strange tricks up their sleeves.
At this moment, Meng Fan was in the arena, enjoying the cheers and the joy of victory among the crowd.
This was something he had never experienced before.
A heroic spirit arose in his heart. Hot blood rushed to his head, and his aura became even stronger.
In the next few matches, Meng Fan’s opponents were no match for his three sword strikes.
He made it all the way to the top 16.
By now, Meng Fan had become the most eye-catching person on the field.
However, Cao Yu wasn’t bad either. After consuming the cultivation fluid, his cultivation had broken through to the fourth level of the Qi cultivation realm.
Although he had just broken through and his cultivation was still not very stable, compared to a cultivator at the third level of the Qi cultivation realm, his cultivation was still stronger.
His swordsmanship was swift and fierce. It was wonderful and varied, and it was not the least bit inferior.
The more he acted like this, the more excited the audience became.
It was originally just a basic swordsmanship competition between a group of children. Everyone had come to watch the show.
They didn’t expect that the two teachers to have a grudge between them, and Lu Ping’s side was arrogant and provocative.
In the end, the students of the two were still very powerful!
In the stands, Wei Minghua was a little regretful. “I didn’t expect these two to be so strong. Now that I’ve looked around, I’ve made a fool of myself. If it weren’t for the special arrangement, the two would have met in the finals, which would have been more effective!”
He Yong gloated, “Hahaha! Loser!”
Xue Luoyan waved his hand and said, “It’s enough. There’s enough to watch in this fight. The effect is not bad now. It’s enough to have a good start.”
To them, the title of the champion was not important. The selection of talents and the promotion of the school were more important.
At this time, the four had arrived at the same arena.
Lu Ping led Meng Fan and stood in front of Chen Mu and Cao Yu.
The four looked at each other, their eyes filled with killing intent.
Suddenly, Chen Mu looked at the referee, he pointed at Meng Fan’s heavy sword and said, “Referee, I’m reporting him! This kid’s weapon is completely against the rules. We’re in a grand swordsmanship competition, so what’s he doing holding a big iron stick? He doesn’t even have a blade. Is this a sword?”
No one expected Chen Mu to make such a move at the last minute.
With this report, not to mention others, even Lu Ping was a little stunned.
Chen MU was too shameless.
A heavy sword isn’t a sword?
The referee frowned. “Mr. Chen, although this sword is a little bigger and heavier, it is not an iron stick, okay?”
Chen Mu “argued with reason” and said, “That’s not how it is. We have to pay attention to everything. Look at our grand swordsmanship competition. Naturally, we are competing in sword techniques and sword Qi. What is this? Isn’t it just a big iron rod? If he were to exaggerate a little more, what’s the difference between him holding this sword and holding a big iron hammer? In any case, it’s just smashing with force. We are not competing with brute force. This kind of practice is clearly against the rules and deserves to be punished!”
At this moment, the referee was a little hesitant. Chen Mu’s words seemed to make some sense.
“Stop bullshitting!” Lu Ping spat out angrily, “Are you trying to change your mind? A heavy sword doesn’t count as a sword? You have the nerve to call yourself a sword master? There are different types of swords. A sword expert could casually point a finger and send sword Qi soaring into the air. Is that not a sword technique? Now, Meng Fan’s sword Qi had gathered in his heart and sharpened. Not to mention holding a heavy sword, even if he held a hammer in his hand, it would still be a sword technique! Are you stupid?”
Lu Ping spat at his face!
Chen Mu’s face was ashen as he dodged Lu Ping’s physical attack. However, he was still hit by a small splash.
“Lu Ping, are you courting death?”
Chen Mu was furious. He turned to look at the referee and said coldly, “Aren’t you going to punish him for this kind of behavior?”
The referee was in a bit of a dilemma.
Actually, in the grand swordsmanship competition, the referee was just a tool.
There were no rules, and they didn’t need to do anything.
As long as they didn’t use anything other than swordsmanship, they wouldn’t care. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen? He couldn’t make up his mind.
In the live broadcast room, the audience was overjoyed.
“I can’t take it anymore, Lu Ping is too interesting, what a good move!”
“Haha, I really like this guy.”
“Chen Mu reporting this move is really a little too much to play with.”
“Yeah, isn’t he saying that he’s a coward?”
Although Lu Ping was very arrogant at first, after a few rounds, the strength Meng Fan had displayed had already made the audience recognize this kind of arrogance to a certain extent.
After consecutive victories, Lu Ping’s initial actions didn’t seem so unacceptable anymore.
In addition to Chen Mu’s report, it was a loss of character. The audience actually supported Lu Ping more. After all, everyone wanted to see the two kids fight.
In the stands, Huang Xiaoqi’s eyes were filled with mirth.
She didn’t think Lu Ping’s actions were anything special. They were a bit vulgar, but they were real.
The disdain was clearly displayed.
Jiang Mei frowned. She began to calculate. If at this time, Cao Yu lost, then their losses would be too severe.
Those who had some strength now could see that in this competition, the two most likely to win the championship were Meng Fan and Cao Yu.
But the result of meeting too early was that the eliminated side would get nothing!
This was something Jiang Mei couldn’t accept. If he lost at the final competition, at the very least, there was still a certain reward for the runner-up.
While she was thinking, Jiang Mei suddenly stood up and shouted, “Lu Ping’s actions were rude. Don’t you want to punish him for his actions?”
That’s right, she wanted to put pressure on the referee.
Her voice was infused with true energy and floated out in an instant.
The referee was stunned. When he saw Jiang Mei in the stands, he naturally recognized her.
As the head of the Logistics Department of the primary school department, she had quite a lot of authority. A lot of work had to be done by her.
