The Check-In System, Starting with the Sunflower Martial Art for Eunuchs

Chapter 27: Sword Sage Successor!

In the teahouse.

The audience had debated for a long time, and some guests even silently tipped Old Li with a handsome sum. Only then did Old Li sip some tea and strike the table with the wooden block in his hand.

Then, he continued, "Everyone, please keep calm. Everyone, please keep calm!

"It's said that countless experts have gathered in the Grand Xia Dynasty in the capital. There are several dozen masters that have achieved the top three ranks!

"Of course, the most dazzling among them are definitely the grade-9 masters! Furthermore, these two grade-9 masters are definitely not mediocre people. They are both extremely famous!

"The first person is Dugu Xiong of the Bashan Sword Masters! When one mentions Dugu Xiong, one must also mention the Six Blue Wave Demons!

"Many years ago, there were six great demons in Sichuan, and the people gave them the nickname of the Six Blue Wave Demons! These six demons all had the cultivation bases of the top three grades. They would burn, kill, loot, and commit all crimes imaginable to cause disaster to the region. Thus, many civilians and ordinary Shaolin experts died in the hands of these six demons. The imperial court and the Jianghu had both sent many experts to kill these six demons, but it was a pity that none of them were successful. On the contrary, many lives were lost for naught!

"In particular, many grade-7 and grade-8 masters have died at the hands of the Six Blue Wave Demons!

"For a period of time, the people of Sichuan were in a state of anxiety. Hearing the name of the Six Blue Wave Demons would cause people's expressions to change and babies to stop crying!

"Then, eleven years ago, the then-unknown Dugu Xiong challenged the Six Blue Wave Demons at their lair along the Blue Wave River!

"Back then, the Six Blue Wave Demons were at the peak of their fame. It was said that even grade-9 masters had no way to deal with them. Thus, they naturally paid no attention to the unknown Dugu Xiong and even thought that he was a newbie who had an exaggerated opinion of his own abilities. They thought that he was attempting to use a sensational method to make a name for himself, but it would be in vain.

"Thus, the Six Blue Wave Demons looked down upon Dugu Xiong. They only sent the third and sixth demons to challenge him and conveniently kill him.

"However, they never imagined that on the day of the battle, Dugu Xiong only used two attacks and beheaded the two top-grade demons who were guilty of monstrous crimes!

"Furthermore, Dugu Xiong did not stop after killing the two demons. In a spurt of energy, he simply found the other four demons. Then, after an hour of violent combat along the Blue Wave River, all Six Blue Wave Demons were killed and none of them escaped!

"After experiencing this battle, even though Dugu Xiong had sustained injuries, after his injuries healed, his cultivation base broke through and advanced to the grade-9 realm!

"It turned out that when Dugu Xiong was killing the Six Blue Wave Demons, he did not have a grade-9 cultivation base. Instead, he was only a grade-8!

"Who can imagine how terrifying Dugu Xiong's current strength is?!

"Later on, there was a rumor from the Jianghu. Apparently, before Dugu Xiong became famous, he was not truly unknown there either. His sword techniques were inherited sixty years ago from a master who was extremely famous in the Jianghu and lived up to his reputation, the first Sword Saint Ye Qingcheng!

"Everyone here knows Sword Saint Ye Qingcheng, right? I have mentioned this many times in the past, but he is a Mythical Pugilist whose sword technique can topple cities and cannot be stopped even by a mighty army!

"Thus, as a junior of the Sword Saint, his sword techniques are equally unfathomable, and he is chivalrous. Thus, he is also called the 'Sword Sovereign' by the Jianghu!"

Then, Old Li stopped again.

However, this time, no one scolded him.

The audience was seething with excitement from his words.

Sword Sovereign Dugu Xiong had killed the Six Blue Wave Demons, who even grade-9 masters were worried about, without leaving any survivors when he was in the grade-8 realm.

This achievement had far surpassed that of barbarian expert Bo Ri, who had swept across the capital six years ago.

Now, Dugu Xiong had also become a grade-9 master. Thus, people naturally felt that Dugu Xiong was even more impressive and stronger than Bo Ri.

Of course, what shocked people the most was that Dugu Xiong was the successor of the Sword Saint Ye Qingcheng!

It was the Sword Saint Ye Qingcheng! Who did not know about him?

It could be said that

Even though the grade-9 masters in this world were aloof from the world and were extraordinary people who were not restrained by the law

and top grade-9 masters were extremely famous and became public figures that even many ordinary people knew

most of the grade-9 masters were not well-known.

Perhaps those who were in the higher classes of society or practiced martial arts would know about them, but a large majority of ordinary people did not know them.

However, the Mythical Pugilists were different.

Every Mythical Pugilist was well-known throughout the world, and even ordinary people could describe them in great detail from frequent exposure.

The Sword Saint Ye Qingcheng was one of these people.

Stories regarding Ye Qingcheng could not be completed even after three days and three nights of storytelling.

For example, legends said that Ye Qingcheng once had the opportunity to replace the Emperor. However, Ye Qingcheng decisively gave up on this opportunity. He did not intend on being the Emperor!

Thus, even though the current "Sword Sovereign" did not have any achievements, just the title of "Sword Saint successor" alone was enough for everyone to have confidence in him!

Since the first grade-9 master was already so impressive, everyone was even more excited for the second grade-9 master.

"What about the other grade-9 master?"

"Is he the imperial family's guest elder that attacked six years ago, Senior Yan Bugui?"

"Old Li, hurry up and say it! Don't leave us hanging!"

Old Li was blind and could not see the anxious expressions of the audience. However, he could sense their anxiety from their tone.

This time, he did not leave them in suspense.

After all, the audience had just offered him money. Thus, he could not ask them for money again so quickly.

"The second grade-9 master is not the imperial family's guest elder, Yan Bugui.

"Even though Senior Yan Bugui is unfathomable and extremely strong, in the end, he is of old age. It's said that he is almost a hundred years old. Thus, he is not suitable for combat this time.

"I'm guessing that many guests here have heard the name of the second person

"He is the Invincible Iron Fist, Senior Shi Chengtian!"

Hua!

When the audience heard this name, many people simply widened their eyes. It was obvious that they knew who Shi Chengtian was.

"Senior Shi Chengtian has attained many achievements and has caused waves in the Jianghu time and again.

"However, his most impressive achievement was when he was requested to take care of the Qin family in Yuzhou. Back then, the Qin family had angered the Demon Gate for some reason. As a result, the Demon Gate placed a death order on them and wanted the family dead.

"Even when faced with the threat of the Demon Gate, Senior Shi Chengtian was happy and did not fear. Instead, he went to save the Qin family and stayed with them for a full month. During that period, he resisted the repeated attacks from the Demon Gate.

"In the end, the Demon Gate was enraged and gathered three grade-9 masters from various places to Yuzhou. Not only did they want to kill the Qin family, but they also wanted to kill Senior Shi Chengtian.

"What were the results? Senior Shi Chengtian was one up against three and faced three grade-9 masters. However, he was not at a disadvantage!

"From this battle, the Demon Gate finally realized how impressive Senior Shi Chengtian was. In reality, ordinary grade-9 masters could not compare with his strength. Thus, the Demon Gate willingly dropped their pretentious airs and revoked the death order against the Qin family. Instead, they discussed their conditions with the Qin family. Such incidents are rare in the history of the Demon Gate, and only Mythical Pugilists can make the Demon Gate step back.

"As a result of this battle, Shi Chengtian rose to fame in the Jianghu and was called the 'Invincible Iron Fist'!"
