with a calm smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yang and Weiwei left to report back upon receiving Lin Xuan’s answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s see just how formidable the talents on the Hidden Dragon List really are!” Lin Xuan harbored a tinge of anticipation in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a grand event, and it was expected that the martial artists among the top ranks of the Hidden Dragon List would make a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan took this opportunity to gauge the strength of Lin Feng and others, as well as to assess his own current level of power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just Lin Xuan; all the young disciples who had come here were looking forward to the sparring matches tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one could stand out in such contests, they would surely become famous throughout Xia Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this place was a gathering of forces from all the Seven States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Lin Xuan went to visit the residences of the Xuantian Sect and paid his respects to Elder Duanmu and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Duanmu and his peers sighed endlessly, as they had not expected Lin Xuan to be a disciple of the Sword Pond Prefecture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You are a Hidden Dragon, and one day you will ascend to the Nine Heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xuantian Sect is too small and can no longer contain you,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Duanmu sighed, “I just hope that when the Xuantian Sect is in trouble, you’ll lend a hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured, elders, I, Lin Xuan, will always be a disciple of the Xuantian Sect!” Lin Xuan said earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the Xuantian Sect’s courtyard, Lin Xuan went to the residence of the elders of the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yang and Weiwei were already there waiting, and Lin Xuan greeted them with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, the Red and White Elders and Elder Gu walked out from inside the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s set off,” Elder Gu said indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pathway made of ice and snow was now bustling with people and full of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various forces were heading towards the main venue, where the banquet was to be held.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After passing through numerous buildings and gardens, Lin Xuan and the others reached the main venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a square nearly a kilometer in size, entirely a brilliant blue, made out of thousand-year-old ice, and it shimmered with a cold gleam under the sunlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground was inscribed with countless patterns of birds and beasts, various plum blossoms, and others, all exceptionally exquisite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan and the others headed to their arranged seats, which were assigned based on strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This world was just so pragmatic, your strength earned you respect from everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ten Thousand Treasure Tower also belonged to one of the major forces in Xia Country, so their seats were relatively at the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan and the others sat down, tasting the fine food on the table while watching the martial artists milling about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the opposite side were the forces of the Golden Sword Sect, the Yuan Family, and above them were the Three Great Forces: the Sword Pond Prefecture, the Earth Fire Sect, and the Blue Moon Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Xuan, I won’t let you get away!” Across from him, the Sword Pattern Youth Yan Hui looked at Lin Xuan with a face full of hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, he had become the laughingstock of everyone’s leisure time conversations, which drove him mad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Hong was similarly filled with fury, wishing nothing more than to tear Lin Xuan apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yan Hui, during the sparring session later, you can take any action you wish against Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s what the boss wishes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ‘boss’ in his mouth was naturally Lin Ye of the Lin Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yesterday, Lin Zheng had said that the older generation could not make a move, but the younger generation could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, it was expected that many young disciples would take action against Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chirp chirp!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snow White Monkey on the table jumped about incessantly, eating to its heart’s content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, Lin Xuan had not discovered anything special about the Snow White Monkey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the creature sure could eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, the disciples of the Lin Family looked at Lin Xuan with varied expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youths around Lin Feng all had faces filled with ridicule, their eyes looking at Lin Xuan with disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Humph, this trash actually made it here, that’s really something!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve heard he can cultivate now, but I reckon he won’t be very strong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly, with a cultivation of the Spirit Sea Third Level, Brother Feng could crush him with a single finger!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While some of the young warriors were visibly excited,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>especially a boy and a girl standing beside Lin Zhen, who were punching the air with their little fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xuan, it really is Brother Xuan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad, why isn’t Brother Xuan coming to sit with us?” the girl naively asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Zhen affectionately ruffled the girl’s hair, “Now is not the time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Soon, he’ll be back with us very soon!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan felt their gaze and smiled, waving his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The snow-white monkey on the table was also merrily making faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yang couldn’t stop exclaiming, “I can’t believe Meng Yan is here too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan was slightly moved and looked toward a young man in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dressed in a fiery red robe, he sat proudly, exuding a domineering aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames danced intermittently on his body, and the thousand-year-old ice around him showed signs of melting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Yan, ranked first on the Hidden Dragon List, had unfathomable strength; even Lin Feng was no match for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That must be Fairy Yue across from him!” Weiwei exclaimed with awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fairy Yue, Yue Xun, the second-ranked on the Hidden Dragon List, only bested by Meng Yan in terms of strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to her formidable power, her beauty was unrivaled, and she wasn’t unworthy of the title Heavenly Immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many of the male disciples around her stole glances at her, their eyes filled with admiration and longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, many were also looking at the Ice and Snow Fairy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of beauty, the two were comparable, one cold and peerless, the other lively and unparalleled, each with their own merits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to the Ice and Snow Fairy sat a cold-looking youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drank quietly by himself, not saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hand held the wine cup, while the other occasionally rested on his long sword, never leaving it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This must be Leng Yidao, Lin Xuan guessed, sensing a piercing chill emanating from the youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if he sensed Lin Xuan’s gaze, Leng Yidao looked over in their direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were so cold that they felt like the sharp edge of a blade slicing through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone around Lin Xuan tensed up as if struck by a long sword; the unpleasant sensation was difficult to bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Lin Xuan was unaffected; the Sword Intent within him surged, countering the sharp gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aura is similar to my Sword Intent; could it be Sword Intent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems that the masters on the Hidden Dragon List really live up to their reputations!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Lin Xuan unaffected, Leng Yidao was taken aback and scrutinized Lin Xuan as if confirming something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when he saw Lin Xuan’s cultivation level, he quickly lost interest, shook his head, and turned away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More and more people took their seats, and the atmosphere grew more and more lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan took a quick look around and understood the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three strongest individuals were Meng Yan, Yue Xun, and Lin Feng; they were the top titans of the Hidden Dragon List, unshakable by anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below them were the Ice and Snow Fairy, Leng Yidao, and others who represented the second tier of masters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the third tier, there were even more, including Yan Hui, Yuan Hongliuyang, Weiwei, and others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan compared his strength with theirs and felt that if it were just a contest, he would be at the peak of the third tier, barely able to enter the second tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan was not discouraged; he was different from the others, strictly speaking, he had only been practicing for less than a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a young man who knew nothing to his current strength in less than a year, it was an achievement that would shock everyone present!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it came down to a life-and-death battle, it would be a different story altogether.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan held several trump cards in his hand, and killing a second-tier martial artist wasn’t a difficult task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, these were disciples of the major powers, so they undoubtedly had quite a few trump cards of their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a rough gauge of his own strength, Lin Xuan began to wait for the banquet to start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, a group of people walked over, led by the Sect Master of the Wenxue Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>",1497,"2026-06-06T00:46:41.017Z",1,"novelbin.me","a5341de4bbde982a067e05ab1cca9d013c45ef46e531d8e76fd0e1033bd48276","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-187","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-185",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
