Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

“The Sword Soul has been in the Sky Fire Valley all along.
Its appearance here in the outside world must mean that something has happened inside the valley.”

“Who in the world dares to wreak havoc at my Sword Prayer City!”

Just as Feng Xuanzi was about to send someone down to have a closer look, numerous masked black-clad figures emerged from a distance.

There were quite a number of them so they had the whole Great Sword Tournament venue surrounded in no time.

“Whoever has the Sword Soul, please kindly turn it over!” One of the leading masked figures of the mysterious group yelled in a hoarse voice.

“You guys are the ones who trespassed into Sky Fire Valley!” Feng Xuanzi stood away from the crowd and stared maliciously at the leading masked figure.

Chu Kuangren kindled his spiritual thought, attempting to find out who these masked people really were.
However, it seemed like they had already prepared for this as a spiritual thought blockade was formed on the leading masked man and so did his crew.
It was to prevent anyone from reading them.

“Having forged swords for so many years, it surprises me that the Sword Prayer City actually managed to create a Sword Soul here.
I can’t imagine the difficulty that you guys went through to keep such a huge secret under the radar for so many years.
Nevertheless, it’s time that this Sword Soul finds itself a new owner today.” The masked figure let out a cold smirk.

“Yes, you are right.”

Chu Kuangren’s voice was heard from amongst the crowd.
Holding the Descendant Self Sword in one hand, he strode calmly to the very front of the crowd.
“Obviously, the Sword Soul has already found its new owner in me.
Now that that’s settled, isn’t it time for you guys to leave?”

All the masked figures fixed their gaze on Chu Kuangren, or more accurately, on the Descendant Self Sword in his hand.

“That’s the Sword Soul’s energy.
It’s inside that sword!”

“Take that sword from him!”

“It’s him, Chu Kuangren.
Things are going to get complicated.”

The Sword Soul had only just merged into the Descendant Self Sword, so its energy had yet subsided completely.
That was the reason why these masked figures could immediately sense something amiss with the Descendant Self Sword.

However, some of their expressions turned grim once they recognized Chu Kuangren.

“Chu Kuangren, we just need you to surrender the Sword Soul and then we’ll leave,” the masked figure said.
Clearly, he too was not keen to make an enemy of Chu Kuangren.

“And what happens if I don’t?”

“Then don’t blame us for not being polite.”

All the masked figures at the scene braced themselves as their sword qi began to flow.
Each one of them was a sword cultivator.
Even the weakest one had a Nascent Soul cultivation base.

“Northern Sea Sword Pavilion and Steel Sword Sect, do you guys really think you’re all that great?”

Chu Kuangren said nonchalantly.

All of the masked figures at the scene were startled upon hearing that.

Meanwhile, the rest of the crowd turned to look at each other in blank dismay.

“The Steel Sword Sect and the Northern Sea Sword Pavilion, it’s them!”

They were the renowned sword orthodoxies of the Azure Dragon Domain, second only to the sage orthodoxies.
Everyone found it hard to believe that they came all the way here to snatch the Sword Soul.

“How on earth did Chu Kuangren figure that out?”

“Both Sect Masters of Northern Sea Sword Pavilion and Steel Sword Sect are amongst the Seven Heroes of the Swordsmanship World.
Do you know that they are both Honorables?”

Feng Xuanzi’s eyes lit up when he heard that.
“Ah, I remember now.
Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman, you’ve visited Sword Prayer City before not long ago.
You’ve even traveled to the Sky Fire Valley.
I reckon you started vying for the Sword Soul since then, am I right?”

“Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman, what’s the matter? You dare to do it, but dare not reveal yourself?!”

The masked figure thought for a moment, then let out a burst of laughter.
He took off his clothed face mask and revealed the face of an average-looking, middle-aged man.

“It really is the Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman!”

The expression on every sword cultivator’s face shifted slightly.

The person who was standing beside Northern Sea Honorable Swordsman took off his own mask too.
He was indeed the Sect Master of another sword orthodoxy, the Steel Sword Sect.
He was Honorable Swordsman of Steel!

Chu Kuangren turned to look at another masked figure who had yet to remove his mask.
“Your friends have already revealed their faces, but what about you, my defeated opponent… Sword Hoarder, are you not going to reveal yourself?” Chu Kuangren said coldly.

“Chu Kuangren!!” Seeing how his identity was exposed so easily, Sword Hoarder stared at Chu Kuangren with hate-filled eyes.
He then took off his mask too.

The crowd gasped in horror.

Either one of the Seven Heroes of the Swordsmanship World’s names would have been enough to send shivers down one’s spine.
The shocking thing was that now, three of them were gathered here in one place.

“A big occasion indeed.”

“Wow, Seven Heroes of the Swordsmanship World… Normally it would be hard to even meet one of them, but now we have three of them here together.
Things are about to get interesting.”
