My Master Knows It All-Chapter 409 - 165 I Wasn’t Boasting, Was I?_2

Everyone even had the illusion that Wu Jianzi seemed ready to draw his sword immediately, an illusion that once Wu Jianzi drew his sword, the very heavens and earth around them would be torn apart by Sword Qi.

Lan Pili felt the terrifying Sword Qi and couldn’t help but involuntarily step back twice, his heart filled with indescribable shock. Wu Jianzi was not targeting him and, moreover, Wu Jianzi showed no sign of taking action or releasing his combat power.

Yet even so, he couldn’t help retreating involuntarily.

Just how profound was Wu Jianzi’s Sword Dao?

He even discreetly circulated his Mana to regain his composure, pointing at the individuals from Thousand Caves Door who had spoken earlier as if tattling to an elder, "They said it. Peak Master Cao said, ’Drawing the sword is everything, the moment the sword is drawn marks the divide between life and death.’ They called it some flawed theory."

As the words fell, it felt as if the air around them solidified instantaneously, as if invisible Sharp Swords were shooting towards them.

Wu Jianzi turned his head to look at them, speaking slowly and deliberately, "Daring to insult Predecessor Cao. Predecessor Cao is the Pathfinder of my Sword Dao, insulting him is like insulting my teacher.

Who just spoke, draw your sword! I will duel with you!"

Around them, the disciples of Thousand Caves Door were completely taken aback.

This...

How had the situation escalated to this point? They were merely discussing swordsmanship with Cao Zhen when Wu Jianzi arrived, ready to draw his sword for a duel.

"Pathfinder?" Around them, everyone took note of the key word in Wu Jianzi’s statement, finding it completely unbelievable.

"Wu Jianzi said that Cao Zhen is the Pathfinder of his Sword Dao? How is that possible?"

"Wu Jianzi comes from Sword Sect."

"The swordsmanship of the world comes from the Sword Sect. What swordsmanship hasn’t Wu Jianzi seen? Why would he take Cao Zhen as his Pathfinder?"

"What did Cao Zhen tell him? Could it really just be those two words ’draw sword’?"

They couldn’t understand it at all, how could Wu Jianzi from the Sword Sect acknowledge Cao Zhen, a Peak Master of the Hundredth Peak of the Hundred Peaks Sect, as his Pathfinder.

A Pathfinder is not something one merely mentions casually.

The Pathfinder might not be a master, but in certain aspects, they could be regarded as one.

As for Wu Jianzi wanting to duel, they were speechless.

When a master is insulted, a disciple duelling on their behalf is beyond reproach.

And when a Pathfinder is insulted, it’s nearly the same as the master being insulted, so there is nothing wrong with Wu Jianzi wanting to duel.

Cao Zhen understood the importance of a Pathfinder, but now, he saw firsthand how revered the status of a Pathfinder was. Seeing Wu Jianzi about to start a battle, he hastily waved his hand, "There’s no need for this. Everyone is just discussing the problems of Sword Dao. There’s no need for violence. If they don’t understand my Sword Dao, then let’s discuss it with them."

"Yes," Wu Jianzi heeded Cao Zhen’s instructions, his aura retracting instantly. He turned to the Cave Masters of Thousand Caves Door, "It’s your own problem that you can’t comprehend Predecessor Cao’s Sword Dao; you simply cannot reach the heights of Predecessor Cao’s swordsmanship.

It was because of Predecessor Cao that I became resolute in my way of the Sword Dao, so let me be the one to discuss this with you."

Elder Huan Kong glanced at the Cave Masters and then at Wu Jianzi before finally nodding, "The exchange of ideas between Sects is meant for mutual improvement. Let’s proceed with the discussion."

It wasn’t that Thousand Caves Door was afraid of Wu Jianzi, but since they were all part of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s Immortal Sects, it would be better to avoid fighting if possible.

Besides, such matters would not sound good if they were to spread.

Moreover, if it came to a discussion...

Wu Jianzi was strong, but even if he was extremely capable, he was still a disciple. When Wu Jianzi last joined a discussion, although he cut through the ranks of Thousand Caves Door, he did so against the disciples, not their Cave Masters, who did not participate in the discussion.

Soon

Elder Huan Kong realized he had made a grave mistake. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Back then, the disciples of Thousand Caves Door had held on for three days, but watching their masters, it wasn’t even three hours before they were overwhelmed.

Within just two hours, one after another, the Cave Masters of Thousand Caves Door were rendered speechless by Wu Jianzi’s questions.

One by one, the masters of the sword caves hung their heads in shame; they had lost. Together, they had joined in a discussion with Wu Jianzi—a generation younger—and were utterly defeated.

When Wu Jianzi previously came for discussion, they had watched the entire process without participating. Although Wu Jianzi was strong then, he had not reached the level he was at now.

Or rather, although Wu Jianzi was formidable that day, they felt that his strength was in understanding the Sword Dao; he was superior in all aspects of understanding the Sword Dao.

But on that day, Wu Jianzi did not have a clear Sword Dao.

Today’s Wu Jianzi had a definite Sword Dao, and his entire martial arts theory had undergone a qualitative change. In the discussion, he completely crushed them.

Elder Huan Kong watched from a distance as a faint smile appeared on Cao Zhen’s face, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt there was a hidden meaning to that smile.

It must have been intentional; Cao Zhen must have done it on purpose.

Not only did he win himself, but also allowed Wu Jianzi to win a second time.

No one would think less of Thousand Caves Door the first time Wu Jianzi won the discussion since it was their disciples who lost to the heir of the Sword Sect, which was quite normal.

But this time, they sent out their Cave Masters!

If the Cave Masters were to lose, it would be a massive embarrassment.
