The first Sword Fighting Token!

Lu Changsheng was incredibly proud!

In fact,

he even turned the tables, recovering the situation earlier in the bronze ranking competition where he had slightly lost to Gu Shentong. How could he not be excited, how could he not be thrilled!

However,

to Lu Changsheng's surprise, the military training field did not erupt into the tidal wave of cheers that he had imagined.

Even,

after he said those words earlier, the expressions of the eight sect leaders in the stands all turned peculiar.

And the faces of the disciples of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect revealed a look of indescribable shame.

Shua!

Shua!

Shua!

Shua!

Just at this moment,

several more beams of light appeared, clearly indicating that others had also obtained the Sword Fighting Tokens and were being transmitted out of the secret realm. After emerging, when they saw Lu Changsheng with a face full of excitement and Gu Shentong slightly dejected beside him, they couldn't help but narrow their eyes.

"It seems that Lu Changsheng has obtained the first Sword Fighting Token!"

"I am not at all surprised that he got the token. After all, his and Gu Shentong's strengths are quite evenly matched... if it was not either of them who obtained the Sword Fighting Token, that would have been the truly shocking matter!"

For them,

Gu Shentong and Lu Changsheng were both quite powerful figures.

It doesn't matter who, either obtaining the first Sword Fighting Token would be an expected outcome.

Seeing the last person being transmitted out of the secret realm,

the Celestial Essence Sword Sect Leader directly said in a loud voice to Lu Changsheng, who wore a face full of pride, "The qualifying competition has ended, let's return to the sect!"

Saying this, he straightened up and prepared to leave.

Lu Changsheng felt a strange sense of discomfort in his heart; he could not understand why the sect leader was not happy at his obtaining the first Sword Fighting Token, and instead acted in such a manner.

It was as though,

he did not wish to stay even for a moment longer.

However, he did not think about it deeply but instead cast a proud glance over the field: "Wait a minute, where is Ye Qingchen?"

Ye Qingchen!

Mentioning this name,

"Why are you looking for him?" The Celestial Essence Sword Sect Leader's body involuntarily trembled slightly, his eyes drooped down as he spoke: "He left before you all came out..."

"Haha!"

Upon hearing these words,

Lu Changsheng realized not only that Ye Qingchen was missing but even Qin Wentian on the high terrace had left, and he suddenly couldn't hold back his laughter, with his face even more full of ridicule:

"That kid, wasn't he quite arrogant before? How come he already left so early? It's a pity, I didn't get to show him my stance when I obtained the first Sword Fighting Token!"

Lu Changsheng was proud to the extreme in his heart.

In his eyes,

Ye Qingchen was nothing more than an insignificant nobody, but this unimportant person dared to challenge him, completely unaware of the immensity of the sky and earth.

"Haha, catching just one of my moves with less than one-tenth of power, does he think he has the strength to contend with me? Having courage is certainly good, but he also needs to have the strength to match it!"

While saying this, Lu Changsheng shook his head, his expression instead carrying a trace of regret.

One should know,

he originally planned to ridicule Ye Qingchen properly, mocking him for overestimating his abilities.

It's a pity Ye Qingchen had already left early, which left him with a little regret.

The other few disciples who had obtained the Sword Fighting Tokens also nodded in agreement.

In the earlier bronze ranking competition, they had all seen that scene.

Although,

the strength Ye Qingchen displayed wasn't bad, compared with them, it was far inferior.

Now, the fact that the other party did not receive a Sword Fighting Token was the best indication.

"Senior Brother Lu Changsheng, that kid Ye Qingchen boasted before, but now can't find a way to end the situation, so he could only flee! Could he really stay here and let others mock him?"

A disciple who had obtained a Sword Fighting Token from the Supreme Sect spoke with a laugh.

"Indeed, Ye Qingchen's entry into the bronze ranking surprised us, but his foundation is too shallow and his background too thin. To obtain the qualification for the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference, he will have to wait for another three years!"

Another disciple from the Shifang Sword Sect nodded.

Although the eight sects were in a competitive relationship,

as the competition had now ended and the Sword Fighting Tokens had been distributed, naturally, there would not be any more red-faced disputes as before, and everyone conversed with laughter.

Even Gu Shentong nodded and said, "Lu Changsheng, you truly are my greatest adversary! To be able to obtain the first Sword Fighting Token, I hope we can face off again at the Sword Fighting Conference..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng's smile grew wider, and just as he was prepared to continue speaking,

"Enough, stop talking! The seven Sword Fighting Tokens have all been taken out, the qualifying competition is over! I shall take my leave!" The Celestial Essence Sword Sect Leader's face had long shown a look of shame and anger. If there had been a crack in the ground right now, he would have wished to crawl into it.

On the stage, the expressions of the other sect leaders were not much better, with a look of wanting yet hesitating to speak.

"Sect Leader?"

Not only did Lu Changsheng not respond, but he even looked at the sect leader in surprise.

One should know,

the Celestial Essence Sword Sect had the deepest grievances with Ye Qingchen. Now that he had obtained the first Sword Fighting Token and Ye Qingchen had been eliminated, the sect leader should have been happy; so why did he instead have such a look of shame and anger?

However,

where did the Celestial Essence Sword Sect Leader desire to stay any longer? Without waiting for Lu Changsheng to speak further, he had already wrapped himself in his long robe, transforming into a beam of escape light, leaving the military training field as if fleeing.

At this moment, the other few sect leaders also could not bear to stay any longer, transforming into beams of escape light and leaving rapidly.

This scene left the few people present all somewhat stunned.

Clearly, only six people had obtained the Sword Fighting Tokens; how could it be announced as ended? Moreover, why did even the other sect leaders have such an attitude?

Even,

the disciples on the military training field also began to leave.

However, the way those people looked at him was somewhat strange.

At this moment,

finally, a disciple from the Celestial Essence Sword Sect could not restrain himself anymore, secretly tugging at Lu Changsheng, whispering, "Senior brother, let's leave first..."

"Why, isn't there still one Token that hasn't come out?" Lu Changsheng asked in confusion.

"It has already come out!" The disciple hesitated before speaking.

What?

With this said,

not only did Lu Changsheng's face change drastically, but even Gu Shentong and the others were greatly astonished.

They exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

One should know,

the six people who had acquired the Sword Fighting Tokens were all here, and they had not seen a seventh person who had a Sword Fighting Token come out!

Could it be?

In an instant, everyone couldn't help but have an incredible thought pop up in their minds.

"Indeed, before you all, the first Sword Fighting Token had already appeared! The person who acquired that token was..." the disciple glanced at the shocked crowd and slowly uttered a name:

"Ye Qingchen!"
