Vol 1, Chapter 49: After The Battle 

TL: Godspell

"Hasn't drawn his sword out? I think he didn't even have the opportunity to draw his sword out, did he? Ha Ha!"

"Wasn't he a very strong swordsman, but at the time of battle, he wasn’t even able to draw out his sword in time. On top of it he is a chosen from the East River Bank, this must be really embarrassing for all of you!"

All the disciples from the West River Bank are laughing madly.

"You ..." Without any words to retort, Zhang Fan who is clumsy with words said with utmost disgust: "Such meaningless words, we'll see who gets the last laugh!"

"Yes, all of you just wait, Senior Brother Ding will definitely make this thin bamboo pole pee his pants!" Wang Xiao and all the other disciples of the East River Bank are firmly supporting Ding Hao."

Between their words, there is a sudden change in the arena.

Ding!!!

The sound of the sword cry shook’s the entire arena.

In an instant, the billowing bright light coming from the sword abruptly stops.

All the people below the arena looked at the thin bamboo pole Song Feixiong, whose face is white as a paper as if he had seen a ghost, every second he stumbled back several steps, with a full panic-stricken look on his face, he is inconceivably looking at Ding Hao.

He hadn't even realized when his sword had left his hand and got struck down on the surface of the arena, which is still making a humming sound while shivering continuously.

Below the arena.

All the disciples from the West River Bank who were laughing and ridiculing Ding Hao had immediately stopped.

"Senior Brother Ding has won!" The first one to awaken was Zhang Fan, who roared excitedly.

"Haha, I had already known that Senior Brother Ding will definitely win!"

"Senior Brother Ding is Invincible!"

"Ha ha, we won, Haha!"

Immediately, all the disciples from the East River Bank are jumping up with intense excitement.

"How could this happen? Senior Brother Song Feixiong was clearly having the upper hand, what the hell happened?"

All the disciples from the West River Bank who were waiting for the victory are now looking at each other with a blank expression, they cannot believe that the final result, will reverse this fast, this is simply too incredible!

"I…...You won!" A trace of bitterness is present on the face of the tall bamboo poll Song Feixiong.

He is thoroughly shaken up by Ding Hao, he was very surprised, when he finds out the sword on his right hand is completely covered by a dense silver cold qi, making all the muscles in his right hand become numb, the most important part is that his Qi circulation has also been abruptly stooped.

All this is because of the foreign invasion of his opponents Ice Profound Qi.

Only now, did he truly understand that his opponent’s strength is far above himself?

At the same time, he bitterly discovered that his opponent from beginning to end is still standing in the middle of the arena. Clearly, he has not moved, even if it’s one step.

All this had explained why his killing move "Blazing Light Sword Strike" was having an upper hand, even the sword light had already covered the entire arena, but in fact, it was not the slightest bit of threat to Ding Hao.

However, he had also gained some benefits in this battle.

Just thinking of the breakthrough, he had made in his sword technique during the arena, Song Feixiong can’t help but feel more shocked than anything else.

Because he is very surprised of his discovery about Ding Hao, on his body there is a very unusual peculiar aura, a type of aura, that can bring one to easily enter in a very profound condition of sword, which can help one break through a bottleneck, by every second, this feeling is simply very hard to describe for him.

Song Feixiong turned around and pulled out his sword embodied in the stone, then with serious face without any arrogance, he respectfully bowed to Ding Hao, and said: "After fighting you, I was finally able to master "Blazing Light Sword Strike" to a new realm, in this battle, although I had lost, but it is completely fair, and you, this win is what you deserved! You are very strong!"

Ding Hao nodded: "Your sword skills, are also pretty good!"

In fact, the reason why Ding Hao has not fought the battle with strength, was mainly to observe his opponent's sword skills.

"Blazing Light Sword Strike" is a Mortal-level middle-rank sword technique compared with the Basic Foundation Sword Techniques "Quick Cross Sword". He did not know but after comparing four to five times, he had roughly remembered this set of sword technique.

As for the specific movement technique used, he still needs some time to understand it slowly.

But this is also not a small harvest!

"One day, I will stand in front of you again, I will make you draw out your sword, to fight with me!" Song Feixiong seriously said in a good way: "You are very strong, but the chosen disciples from the Five Banks, are Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragons, you have to be careful, I hope you can go farther some!"

All the arrogant rampant disciples from the West River Bank, are thoroughly subdued by the demeanor of Ding Hao, some of them are even showing a bit of admiration towards Ding Hao.

After that, he jumped off the arena and walked away.

"East River Bank, Ding Hao wins!" The judge of the arena announced the final victory and defeat in a loud voice.

Below the arena, the disciples from the East River Bank were madly applauding.

……

Ding Hao had also returned to the resting area for East River Bank chosen disciples. The first round in the Five Great Bank Competition had finally completely settled down.

Out of ten chosen disciples from the East River Bank, six chosen disciples had been eliminated in the first round, there are only four other chosen disciples that had won besides Ding Hao, they are Li Lan, and his two trusted followers Ge Yin and Zhang Tianlun.

Many disciples had already expected the victory of Li Lan and Ding Hao.

Before Ding Hao, had attained a lot of popularity, and the sword skills that he had displayed were also very good, naturally, all the disciples from the East River Bank had the utmost confidence in him.

But the origins of Li Lan are quite mystical, usually, he remains in a close door seclusion, and he was also one of the chosen disciples personally selected by the Head Teacher in the martial arts contest previously held in the Martial Pavilion, all this has given everyone a formidable impression of him. 

But what surprised them the most, is that Ge Yin and Zhang Tianlun has also won their battles.

After all, during the former martial arts contest for the selection of the chosen disciple, the performance displayed by them were not that strong, but now both of them had actually won their battles, on top of it, Zhang Tianlun had defeated a chosen disciple from the Central River Bank, which had surprised all the disciples quite a bit, some of them even believed that these two were extremely lucky, to meet an opponent with low strength in the first round.

Only the Bearded Head Teacher Wang Juefeng was aware of what had actually happened with Zhang Tianlun and Ge Yin, there is a trace of slight purple Qi surging deep within the eyes of both of them, he knows this is not any abnormal phenomena, obviously both of them had taken some kind of strange pill, to temporarily increase their cultivation level.

The big bearded Head Teacher slightly shakes his head, not a bit bothered with their actions.

The medicine pill, within a short time, can increase one's strength, but it also has many after effects which can affect one's cultivation in the future.

However, it is the path they had to walk by themselves, as their Head Teacher, he is only responsible for explaining cultivation and greatly managing all the disciples in the East River Bank, he does not care with the private affairs of these many disciples absolutely.

"Hmm? What a surprise, I didn’t think, all these trashes will not be eliminated in the first round, also there are four chosen disciples that were able to get passed, attaining four points, well, it is really out of my expectations, Haha, but you all are getting happy way too early, I can see in the next round, that the luck is not on your side, so get ready for take a beating!"

The big bearded Head Teacher, like before has drawn the hatred of all the disciples.

With only a few words summarizing the success of the East River Bank, he had made all the teeth of the disciples itchy.

Ding Hao lips also twitched, but he did not speak.

There is an about two hours of rest before the start of the second round, so under the shade of a tree, he starts practicing the sword technique "Blazing Light Sword Strike" which he had just learned.
