Chapter 1223 - 1223 God of War and Martial God, Sword Competition (1)
1223 God of War and Martial God, Sword Competition (1)
Zhang Yukun was an ordinary youth in Great Xia, and his idol was the former King of the South of Great Xia.
He had grown up listening to the legends of the King of the South from a very young age. At the time, his grandfather was still around.
His grandfather had often held him on his knees and told him about the King of the South.
He still clearly remembered how his grandfather had talked about the King of the South proudly. All his life, his grandfather had been proud to have worked with the King of the South.
But even until his death, his grandfather had regretted that his aptitude was too poor and that he couldn’t keep up with the King of the South.
His grandfather was Zhang Yibei. He was once a Forging Apprentice of Great Xia’s Forging Division. Later, he became the superintendent of Great Xia’s Forging Division’s 0th Workshop!
Zhang Yukun grew up in Great Xia’s Forging Division. He didn’t become a forger but chose to become a martial artist.
After his grandfather became the superintendent of Great Xia’s Forging Division’s 0th Workshop, his family had already broken away from the fate of being Forging Apprentices.
It was precisely because his grandfather had been a Forging Apprentice for decades that he understood even more that without talent in the path of forging, no matter how hard one worked, it would only be a waste of time.
Zhang Yukun didn’t have any forging talent. On the contrary, his Martial Dao talent wasn’t weak.
As the superintendent of Great Xia’s Forging Division’s 0th Workshop, Zhang Yibei had helped Zhang Yukun find some cultivation techniques.
It was precisely because of this that Zhang Yukun could cultivate all the way to the third rank.
A third-rank martial artist might not be worth mentioning in the eyes of those big shots. But to a family like the Zhang family that had just risen less than three generations ago, it was already an existence that brought honor to their ancestors.
After all, his grandfather, Zhang Yibei, had only been a mere workshop superintendent. Back then, the commander of Great Xia’s Divine Constable Bureau had only been a third-rank martial artist.
The Zhang family’s assets could only support the birth of a third-rank martial artist.
Unless Zhang Yibei was willing to beg Zhou Shu, with Zhang Yukun’s aptitude, this was the highest realm he could reach in his life.
But Zhang Yibei was unwilling to beg Zhou Shu. He cherished the friendship between them and was unwilling to let this friendship be tainted. Moreover, Zhou Shu had already helped him enough.
If not for Zhou Shu’s guidance, he, Zhang Yibei, would have only been a Forging Apprentice for the rest of his life.
His son and grandson might even continue to be Forging Apprentices.
It was Zhou Shu who had changed the fate of the entire Zhang family!
Even until his death, Zhang Yibei had never used his relationship with Zhou Shu to do anything against his conscience!
After Zhang Yibei’s death, the Zhang family developed steadily. Now, they were considered a rather affluent family in Great Xia’s capital.
Ever since the Myriad Worlds Communication Token spread to the capital of Great Xia, Zhang Yukun had spent all his wealth and even used some of the connections left behind by his grandfather to obtain a Myriad Worlds Communication Token.
This made the people who were of comparable status to him extremely envious.
In the beginning, the reason why Zhang Yukun had rushed to buy the Myriad Worlds Communication Token was that Zhou Shu had forged it.
He was Zhou Shu’s fanatical fan. When he heard that Zhou Shu had personally forged the Myriad Worlds Communication Token, he couldn’t help wanting to get one.
At the time, many people had mocked him for being a sucker.
But now, everyone knew that Zhang Yukun had made a killing.
The black market price of the Myriad Worlds Communication Token had already increased several times.
If Zhang Yukun wanted to sell his Myriad Worlds Communication Token now, he would be able to earn at least several times more money.
But he wouldn’t sell his token no matter what!
This was because only he knew that the greatest value of the token was not how much it was worth, but the content inside!
The God of War Catalog is indeed worthy of its name! Zhang Yukun stroked the Myriad Worlds Communication Token, his face filled with excitement. That bullshit Martial God Catalog isn’t even worthy of carrying shoes for the God of War Catalog!
On the Myriad Worlds Communication Token, two people were actually openly imparting the Martial Dao.
At first, Zhang Yukun thought that it was just two people fooling around. But in the end, he became completely absorbed in it.
He began cultivating the God of War Catalog according to the instructions on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token. He had only cultivated the first diagram, but he had already broken through the bottleneck he had been at for many years and entered the second rank!
He had once thought that it was impossible for him to break through beyond the third rank in his life. He had only cultivated a little of the God of War Catalog on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token, but he had already broken through.
This made him treat the God of War Catalog as a treasure and become a loyal supporter of the unknown martial artist.
This ‘unknown martial artist’ was now his idol on par with Zhou Shu.
Over the past few days, he had been cultivating the God of War Catalog day and night. If there was anything he didn’t understand, he would communicate with others on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token. Sometimes, this unknown martial artist would even appear and personally explain the God of War Catalog to them.
The unknown martial artist’s realm was profound, and his explanations were even more in-depth and simple, benefiting those who cultivated the God of War Catalog greatly.
Now, there were two camps on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token.
One camp cultivated the God of War Catalog, while the other camp cultivated the Martial God Catalog taught by the Peerless Martial God.
Neither side gave in. They both thought that what they cultivated was the best cultivation technique.
On the Myriad Worlds Communication Token, scolding battles erupted almost every day.
From the looks of it, the person who cultivated the God of War Catalog had the upper hand!
Huh? People who cultivate the Martial God Catalog are courting death. They are actually challenging the people who cultivate the God of War Catalog? They want to see which side is stronger?
Zhang Yukun saw a message on the Myriad World Communication Token and immediately felt ardor and zeal coursing through his blood.
Those who cultivate the Martial God Catalog are all heretics. I will let you see that the God of War Catalog is stronger than the Martial God Catalog!
Zhang Yukun registered without hesitation!
This scene was happening everywhere in the Ten Nations at the same time.
Just like that, the Martial God camp and the God of War camp agreed to have a sword competition. The losing side would have to bow their heads to the winning side.
