Cultivation Online

"Experience, huh? I agree." Meixiu nodded.

"Hm? Are you also interested in something from this place?" Yuan asked her.

"Yes, I want to try out archery," she responded.

"Archery? That's unexpected."

"I know, but I think it will be useful one day," she said.

And she continued, "What about you? It has to be the sword, right?"

"Yes, but that's not all I want to do. I also want to try out the other weapons, such as the spear and the rod. After all, the more I understand these weapons, the easier it will be for me when I have to fight opponents using these weapons.."

"That makes sense." Meixiu nodded.

Sometime later, they entered the immortal cave and unpacked their luggage.

Once that was all done, they made their way back to the training area.

"L-Look at that person wearing the black mask! Isn't that Player Yuan?!"

The disciples around them quickly took notice of their presence due to their unique appearance.

"Is that really Player Yuan? What if he's an imposter? There are plenty of people like him out there. In fact, anyone can claim to be Player Yuan by wearing a mask!"

Although some people stared at Yuan in awe, there were also those that doubted his identity.

After all, Player Yuan was an incredibly mysterious individual whose identity isn't known by seemingly anyone.

Furthermore, there have been far too many people faking to be Player Yuan— too many to count, and most of them do it to gain fame, or simply to obtain gifts from others, as everyone was seemingly trying to curry favors with Player Yuan, hoping to learn his identity.

Of course, due to how common fake Player Yuans were, it was only logical for people to suspect the current 'Player Yuan'.

"But didn't he fight against Elder Xi and win? Who could possibly defeat a grand elder besides Player Yuan?" Another disciple asked.

"Hmph! As if you can call that spar a fight! Elder Xi wasn't even using his full strength, and that person had been dodging the entire time! You cannot call that a fight! It was more of a performance than anything!"

Sometime later, Yuan and Meixiu arrived at the training building.

Yuan went straight into one of the sword training rooms and asked the instructor there, "Can I borrow a sword? I'd like to train with it."

"You want to practice with the sword?" The instructor was baffled by his request.

After snapping out of his daze, the instructor pointed to the side of the room where a couple of weapon shelves holding swords were located and said, "Go ahead. Most of them are wooden swords with metal as its interior so it feels like a real sword. If you want a real sword… You'll need permission from the grand elders."

"I understand." Yuan nodded and proceeded to walk over to the shelves before picking a sword randomly.

"Wow, this thing does feel pretty heavy. I am not used to feeling this much weight," he said after picking it up and swinging it around a couple of times.

"But you wield an even larger sword in Cultivation Online," Meixiu said with her eyebrows raised.

"The sword may be big, and it may seem heavy, but it actually weighs almost to nothing for me since I am its master," he said.

After picking up the sword and getting comfortable with it, Yuan said to Meixiu, "Can you bring me to a spacious area that doesn't have many people?"

Since he couldn't see the entire gymnasium even with his divine sense, he asked for her help.

Meixiu looked around the place before saying, "Follow me."

Yuan then followed her.

The gymnasium was incredibly big— big enough for them to walk a couple of minutes without stopping.

Once they stopped, Yuan used his divine sense to make sure there wasn't anyone around them.

"Stand back a little. I don't want to hurt you by accident." Yuan said to Meixiu.

Meixiu nodded and took a couple of steps back until she was many meters away from him.

Once he was alone, Yuan took a deep breath and recalled his experience in Cultivation Online.

Although his body wasn't the same, his memories and experience within Cultivation Online were real.

After standing there for a few minutes without doing anything, Yuan began moving his body, calmly swinging his sword around.

Each of his swings was incredibly precise and powerful.

The other disciples in the gymnasium could see a small arc of wind appearing in front of Yuan every time he swung the sword, causing them to suck in a breath of cold air, as none of them could replicate such a phenomenon.

"Impressive…" The instructor also watched Yuan practice his sword swings with awe.

Although there were no sword techniques behind Yuan's sword swings, his sword still emitted a profound aura, and every swing left a deep impression on the disciples there.

Yuan proceeded to practice with his sword for the next hour without any disruptions.

Sometime later, Yuan stopped swinging the sword and turned to look at Meixiu, who looked a little bored, "Meixiu, you can go practice archery if you're bored of watching me."

"Are you sure?" Meixiu asked him.

"Yes, I will probably be here for a while working up a sweat. I will find you when I am done if you're not finished by then," he confirmed.

"Okay. I will see you later." Meixiu nodded and made her way to the fourth floor, where the disciples were practicing archery."

Once she entered the room, Meixiu looked around until she found someone who looked like the instructor and walked up to her.

"Hello, I'd like to try archery," Meixiu said to her.

"Hm?" The middle-aged woman turned to look at Meixiu, who was wearing a black mask.

"Are you with…?"

Meixiu nodded, "Yes, I am."

"Have you used a bow before?" The bow instructor then asked.

"No, I have not."

"That's perfectly fine. Follow me to an open aisle. I will teach you the basics." The instructor said with a friendly smile on her face.

"Thank you." Meixiu then followed her.
