Chapter 903: I, Yao Ji, Can’t Pass the Movement Technique Test?! Watch Me...
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
At this moment, at the Dao-Hearing Pavilion in the Gui Family.
The Gui Family had always valued education and etiquette. Among all the major families, the Dao-Hearing Pavilion had the best learning atmosphere, and even other major families would send some of their members to this place after they reached adulthood for study and experience.
At this moment, elite disciples from different families stood in rows with great solemnity outside the Dao-Hearing Pavilion.
Outside the pavilion was a wide martial arts field. At this moment, three grand-looking coaches dressed in pale blue robes stood on it with their hands clasped behind their backs. An elder wearing a teal robe stood on the high platform and looked down on the disciples who didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
“Next up, Yao Ji!”
“Yao Ji!?”
“Yao Ji?!”
After three calls, there still wasn’t anyone who answered. At this moment, the three coaches’ faces darkened.
Standing beside the three coaches was a cold-faced young man who moved with the elegance and dignity of a member of a big family; he walked down the platform slowly.
Obviously, he had just finished the test. His arrogant look showed that he had got a good mark.
Turning to the three coaches, he bowed and said, “In my opinion, since this person isn’t here, you don’t have to test him, coaches.”
“Huh?” One of the coaches asked in puzzlement, “Gui Nian, what do you mean?”
The young man with the family name of Gui said with a faint smile, “Coaches, Yao Ji has always been lazy in the academy and is a good-for-nothing. It’s said... that this guy has only a poor human-immortal physique. I think it doesn’t matter if you test him or not.”
“He’s right.” At this moment, another person walked up and said, “Coaches, this guy didn’t even attend the One Step to Heaven Test held by the elders. Furthermore, he has been disrespectful to elders in private just because he comes from a major immortal family. Most importantly, he has only managed to master the most basic movement technique, the Seven-Illusion Spirit Body.”
“The Dao-Hearing Pavilion has a good learning atmosphere and is a holy place for learning Dao that is recognized by all families. We come here to cultivate with concentration, but this guy has a very bad influence on this place!” Another person stood out and said, “Today, he is so arrogant that he is absent from the test personally held by the elders. Next time, I guess he won’t come even at the elders’ invitation! I hope the elders will severely punish him; it would be best if you can expel him, so we will have peace back in this immortal cultivation pavilion!”
“Yes! Expel him so that we can have a peaceful environment!”
“Elder, Yao Ji is indeed arrogant,” Gui Nian said in a low voice, “If...”
“Wait!” At this moment, a white-robed young master walked out of the crowd with a young servant and stepped to the center of the field.
With a sharp gaze, he stepped forward with a strange rhythm as his robe flapped around him even though there was no wind.
“This is...!? Yao Ji!?”
“Yao Ji! You dare to come here?!” Gui Nian of the Gui Family stared at him coldly.
“Why not?!” Yao Ji stared back at him.
“Don’t you know what our test is today?!” Gui Nian stared at him arrogantly as if he was looking down on a good-for-nothing scum.
“Of course. The so-called One Step to Heaven is a test of movement techniques and battle steps.”
“And you dare to show up here?” Gui Nian said with a sneer, “You showed disrespect to the elders. If I were you, I would not humiliate myself in front of others since you’ll fail anyway.”
People laughed when they heard his words.
Gui Nian bowed and said, “It isn’t slander. This guy has failed all the tests in previous years!”
“Just because I failed in previous years doesn’t mean that I will fail this year,” Yao Ji said in a loud voice, “How do you know that I will fail this year?! You bully me just because this place belongs to your Gui Family, but today, I won’t let you do it!”
“Oh?” At this moment, the elder standing on the high platform squinted his eyes. “Have you obtain a breakthrough this year?”
“Yes!” Yao Ji said immediately, “I’m late because I spent the whole day on understanding a wondrous movement technique.”
“Oh...?”
The elder waved his hand and said with interest, “Let him have a try.”
He pointed at one of the coaches and said, “Coach Wang, you test him.”
Seeing that the elder agreed to test Yao Ji, Gui Nian said resentfully, “I’ll see what moves you have!”
Then, the solemn coach with a wide forehead and a square face walked over. “One Step to Heaven Test. To pass the first test, you must dodge ten attacks from me. Are you ready?”
At this moment, Yao Ji lightly stood on his toes and hummed some strange sounds as fierce battle intent burned in his eyes. “I’m ready!”
“Watch carefully! This is the Void Spiritual Sword Technique of the mid-tier Xuan-level!” Coach Wang pointed two fingers forward, and a spiritual light shot out like a lightning bolt!
At this moment, Yao Ji hummed the miraculous ‘pithy formula’. As the prelude of the ‘pithy formula’ was completed, his whole body moved!
The ethereal sword energy shot toward the direction in which Yao Ji moved like a light beam.
But Yao Ji’s body swayed with his steps slightly as if he was walking on the clouds!
The sword energy missed him! He was intact!
Then, the sword energy moved unpredictably like a heavenly shadow.
But at this moment, everyone heard the strange sounds.
“Aiyaiyai! Aiyaiyai~”
Next, everyone saw Yao Ji moving with a strange rhythm as if each step he took was on a perfect spot. During the process, his body moved in a narrow range of a three-by-three grid.
As Yao Ji moved his feet, the coach found that regardless of how he attacked, he couldn’t predict Yao Ji’s next move. Regardless of how he changed his attacks, none of the strikes could hit the target!
“Wow-!?” Exclamations erupted around them.
“This...!? What’s happening?!”
“Watch out!” Coach Wang’s expression changed as he felt the wonders of this movement technique. “Returning Sword Technique! Top-tier Xuan-level!”
With chilly glints in his eyes, he seemed to be swiftly analyzing Yao Ji’s steps in his mind. “Left! Right! Lower leg! Shoulder!”
“Aiyaiyai! Aiyaiyai~!”
Everyone watched as the young man swayed rhythmically under the coach’s sword attacks with smooth steps, flowing like water.
“He dodged it!”
“He dodged it so narrowly!”
“How can it be?!”
At this moment, they seemed to see the youthful dance that was as passionate as boiling blood!
“This...!?” everyone exclaimed as they watched the scene on the field dumbfoundedly.
“He dodged it! He dodged them all-!”
How is this possible?!
In disbelief, they rubbed their eyes, feeling as if they were blinded by the sight!
