The moonlight is like water, shining on the ancient stone bricks of the Martial Arts Sect. A cold wind blows, carrying the fragrance of wutong trees. The moss on the stone path appears unusually bright in the moonlight, like jade embedded in the bricks.
In the distance, Chin Feng and Sung walk along this winding path, heading towards the towering hall.
In the main hall, ancient lanterns emitted a flickering light, casting a glow on the tense faces of everyone present. Beneath his blue robe, Elder Windthunder had hair as white as silver threads, with eyes that sparkled with wisdom. Beside him, Elder Bei Lu had a slender figure, and his white feather fan occasionally fluttered, bearing ancient seal script and emitting a faint spiritual energy.
In the center of the room stood the chief disciple Frost, around thirty years old, with sharp features exuding a sense of pride. He had a tall, imposing figure and was dressed in a dark green martial attire that tightly hugged his large frame.
Always wearing a cold smile. The deep gaze seems to see through everything, making people dare not look directly. After the death of the sect leader, those who once had deep friendships with Liu Mian, including senior brothers and teachers, have chosen sides, but they stand with Frost.
Lingling senior sister, with a face as pure as snow, yet her eyes are filled with worry. Clad in purple like the night, shining like the stars, she stands behind Chin Feng and Sung. Although she does not speak, the sword aura has already revealed her determination to the people in the field.
Chin Feng has noticed that the Martial Arts Sect has split into two factions. While Windthunder as the acting leader commands respect, some of the senior teachers and brothers feel that his leadership is lacking following the passing of Master Liu Mian, and they support Frost. The current situation in the sect is thus: on one side, there is the absolute authority of Windthunder, along with the traditional forces of elder Bei Lu and Lingling. On the other side, there is Frost and his supporters, many of whom have deep ties with Liu Mian. They believe that the martial arts sect needs a younger, more dynamic leader to guide them.
Frost broke the silence with his voice, "Today, I have gathered you all for one purpose. Since Master Liu Mian has passed, the Martial Arts Sect must have someone to inherit his mantle. I believe that I, Frost, am qualified for this."
Windthunder The sect leader sighed, "The affairs of the sect cannot be decided by one person alone."
Elder Bei Lu shook his feather fan and said, "Frost, are you suggesting that you want to become the reserve sect elder?"
Windthunder, the acting sect leader, draped in a blue robe, with flowing white hair, spoke lightly as if the willow catkins in the wind, "Moreover, since the passing of the former sect leader Liu Mian, two factions have emerged within the martial arts sect."
Chin Feng caught a glimpse of Frost's expression, which grew even darker. It turned out that Frost had already won over a portion of the senior brothers and intended to control the entire sect.
Elder Bei Lu, with a slender figure, holding a white feather fan, gently tapping, said, "Frost hopes to inherit the mantle of the master and become the next head, but many people also think that he is too arrogant and lacks grace, and is not suitable to be the head."
Lingling sighed softly, "The martial arts sect cannot be divided. I hope everyone can unite."
"I also think so," said Chin Feng.
"The affairs of the martial arts gate are not something you can meddle in!" Frost's voice was sharp when she saw Chin Feng, and every word sounded like it was being stabbed with a sword.
Frost: "As the acting sect leader, this junior brother, despite his profound martial arts skills, often acts on his own accord, disregarding the overall situation and recklessly intruding into Soul Valley. How can such a reckless person continue to stay in our Martial Arts Sect?"
Frost sneered, "Senior Sister Lingling, who helped our master resist other sects back then? Who fought against evildoers outside to protect the Martial Arts Sect? It was me, Frost! Not like certain people who only know how to seclude themselves and practice swordsmanship."
Chin Feng knows that Frost senior brother's political means are superior in addition to his martial arts. Many senior brothers have been helped by him, so although his personality is extreme, he still has the support of many people. In addition, his martial arts are strong, making him more prestigious in the sect.
"Cold senior brother, we are risking going to Soul Valley to find out the truth about the death of the sect leader!" Sung finally spoke, his voice calm but firm.
"The truth? Hah!" Frost sneered, "Who do you think you are? How dare you trespass into the forbidden area and cause Martial Arts Sect to be held accountable by the major sects!"
A hint of fear flashed in Frost's eyes, then was overwhelmed by an even stronger anger.
"It's just like trying to take over someone else's job, thinking you know better!" With a forceful palm strike, the lights in the entire hall flickered slightly.
The atmosphere in the hall grew increasingly tense, with the other senior brothers looking at each other, unsure of which side to take.
"Enough!" Windthunder shouted angrily, "These matters should be resolved within the sect, and not decided by our private quarrels!"
" Frost, the former sect leader Liu Mian did indeed recognize your talent and leadership abilities, but is everything you are doing now really in line with our master's original intentions?" Acting sect leader Windthunder continued.
Frost sneered, "Everything I do is for the future of the martial arts sect."
Windthunder replied, "Although you, as the sect leader, have formidable strength, you are also advanced in years. I, on the other hand, am in the prime of my youth, with enough energy and passion to lead the martial arts sect to new heights."
Chin Feng gazed resolutely and stepped forward, "Senior Frost, although Master Liu Mian chose you as the chief disciple, he also secretly passed on the 'Nine Sword Techniques' to me. This doesn't mean he favors me more, but rather, he hopes to have another force within the sect to resist external threats."
Frost's gaze sharpened, "What did you say?"
Sung tugged on Chin Feng's sleeve, sensing trouble. He was afraid that Chin Feng would face retaliation from Frost, but Chin Feng remained unfazed.
elder Bei Lu With a wave of the feather fan, "In that case, let's have a little contest to see who is more qualified to be the reserve head of the sect."
Frost Laughing heartily, "Good, that's just what I want!"
The atmosphere in the arena suddenly became tense. Windthunder took a deep breath and held his breath, knowing that this showdown would determine the future of the Martial Arts Sect.
Frost and Chin Feng stood at opposite ends of the arena, only a few dozen feet apart. Chin Feng gently activated the internal energy technique of "Spiritual Heart Tactic," surrounding his whole body with a faint blue aura, while Frost activated his powerful triple "selfless" inner strength of the Spiritual Heart Tactic, emitting a majestic aura from his body.
Frost suddenly launched an attack, with sword energy sweeping across, heading straight for Chin Feng. Chin Feng felt a chill in his heart, and immediately used the "Floating Cloud Dance" from the "Heaven and Earth Swordsmanship" to gracefully evade Frost's sword energy.
Then, Frost launched several consecutive sword techniques, but Chin Feng was always able to evade them, and each evasion was perfectly timed, as if he had foreseen all of Frost's attacks.
Upon seeing this scene, both Elder Bei Lu and Windthunder, the sect leaders, showed a hint of surprise in their eyes. They both knew that this was the effect of Chin Feng's "Heart Ocean Cleansing Wave Technique," which could see through the opponent's every move.
Not to be outdone, Frost suddenly unleashed the "Sun and Moon Radiance" of the "Heaven and Earth Swordsmanship," causing the sword light to instantly expand and envelop the entire hall in brilliance. Chin Feng's eyes flashed with a hint of astonishment; although he had seen this move before, he had rarely had the opportunity to face it head-on.
In the dazzling sword light, Chin Feng waved the sword in his hand, using the "Nine Sword Techniques" and the "Plunging Waterfall" to stab Frost directly.
The two swords clashed in the air, emitting a deafening sound of metal collision. Both of them simultaneously stepped back a few paces, standing firm and facing each other.
"Chin Feng, you do have some skills," Frost gritted his teeth, "but do you think that's enough to defeat me?"
The two of them stepped back, and in an instant, Chin Feng's figure disappeared. He reappeared holding a sword, using the first move of the "Heaven and Earth Swordsmanship" - "Floating Clouds Light Dance" to evade Frost's attack, and aimed his sword at Frost. Not to be outdone, Frost countered with the "Spiritual Heart Tactic," boosting his inner strength and launching the "Spring Thunder Initiates Earth" move.
Chin Feng performed the "Heart Ocean Cleansing Wave Technique" gesture, attempting to anticipate Frost's movements. Although the two were evenly matched in skill, Chin Feng had an additional technique to anticipate the opponent's attacks, giving him a slight advantage in battle.
As the two swords clashed, sparks flew in all directions. Each exchange felt like thunder, causing the lanterns in the hall to sway violently.
Everyone in the field held their breath, only hearing the continuous sound of the two swords. Although Chin Feng was young, he had already demonstrated strength comparable to Frost.
Suddenly, Frost gritted his teeth and used his ultimate skill - "Nine Techniques of Sword Wind." For a moment, the entire hall seemed to be surrounded by sword energy, and each sword wind was like a violent storm, attacking Chin Feng.
Chin Feng knew that this was his greatest test, and he had to use what he had learned to withstand Frost's attack.
At this critical moment, without hesitation, Chin Feng unleashed the ultimate skill he had learned from Soul Valley - the "Seven Heavenly Sword Technique." Each sword flashed like a shooting star, clashing with Frost's sword style and releasing a dazzling light.
At that moment, the entire hall was shining like the meeting of the sun and the moon, radiating light in all directions, leaving everyone in awe of this extraordinary sword fight.
After some time had passed, as the light gradually dissipated, the crowd saw that Chin Feng and Frost had both stepped back, standing face to face. Their respective swords had fallen to the ground, and both of them were panting heavily, but their eyes held mutual respect.
Elder Bei Lu stood up and looked deeply at the two of them, "Today's competition can be considered a draw. The future of Martial Arts Sect requires both of you to work together. I hope you can set aside past grievances and move forward together for the sake of the sect."
Frost sneered, "A draw? If I hadn't held back, he would have lost long ago."
Chin Feng calmly responded, "If you hadn't held back, I might not have been able to stand here now."
The two locked eyes again, neither willing to back down.
Elder Bei Lu took a deep breath and said, "Frost and Chin Feng, both of you are the future stars of our Martial Arts Sect. The external threats facing our sect are far more important than internal conflicts. I hope you can set aside your differences and work together."
Chin Feng took a deep breath and nodded. "Elder's words are true. I am willing to work together with Frost for the future of Martial Arts Sect."
Frost moved his eyes slightly, as if struggling. But the current situation was not in his favor, so in the end, he nodded helplessly. "As long as Chin Feng does not do anything detrimental to Martial Arts Sect, I can turn a blind eye."
Elder Bei Lu showed a satisfied smile. "Good, today's matter ends here. Starting from tomorrow, the two of you will train together, learn from each other, and no private fights will be allowed."
The other disciples in the field looked at Chin Feng and Frost with great astonishment. These two young talented martial artists will surely bring brightness to the Martial Arts Sect in the future.
The hall fell silent.
Chin Feng and Sung felt the changes around them after returning to their residence. The people in their sect were becoming increasingly indifferent, even hostile towards them.
"This Frost senior brother seems to be not so simple," Sung said in a low voice.
Chin Feng nodded with a determined look: "We must be careful, this sect seems to have changed from what it used to be."
"Yes, ever since our master passed away, everything has changed," Sung sighed.
"Don't worry, no matter what comes next, we'll handle it together!" Chin Feng patted Sung on the shoulder.
