surely, if the others knew, they would be green with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early the next morning, Lin Xuan was awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young girl with a longsword strapped to her back stood outside the door, her smile brimming with curiosity as she sized up Lin Xuan, “Are you the top-ranked newcomer, Lin Xuan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t seem all that special,” the girl carrying the longsword scrutinized him more closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed, it’s me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>May I ask what brings Senior Sister here?” Lin Xuan was puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, to see our instructor,” the girl said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Instructor?” Lin Xuan became even more perplexed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t know?” The girl was astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All new Inner Sect Disciples are assigned an instructor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They oversee everything we do in the sect, including our cultivation and assessments.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see, so that’s how it works.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The treatment of Inner Sect Disciples is truly impressive, having personal guidance; no wonder so many are desperate to get in!” Lin Xuan began to understand the significant differences between the Inner Sect and the Outer Door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“However, the instructors assigned vary depending on your ranking in the selection competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re lucky; you’ve been assigned Instructor Murong!” The girl’s face shone with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come on, follow me to report in!” The girl with the longsword gestured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following her out of the courtyard, Lin Xuan stepped onto a secluded path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My name is Ye Qing; just call me Senior Sister Ye,” the girl led the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Sister Ye, what kind of person is Instructor Murong, and how many disciples does she have in total?” Lin Xuan inquired, aiming to gather some information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Instructor Murong is quite formidable, one of the Core Disciples from the previous cohort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s kind and doesn’t give us a hard time,” Ye Qing explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for the disciples under her, there are only three, including you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One of the Core Disciples!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just three of us!” Lin Xuan was somewhat astonished; he hadn’t expected his instructor to be one of the top Ten Core Disciples from the previous cohort, and that she only had three disciples in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Xuantian Sect, once someone exceeds the age of twenty-five, they are no longer considered a Disciple and stay on in the sect under other titles such as steward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given Instructor Murong’s status as one of the previous Ten Core Disciples, it spoke volumes about her strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them swiftly proceeded, arriving at a small palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qing led Lin Xuan inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Instructor, I’ve brought Lin Xuan,” Ye Qing announced cheerfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A graceful figure emerged, standing atop a stone platform and looking towards Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan squinted his eyes, appraising the figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wore light armor in a shade of green that accentuated her exquisite form; a very young woman, Lin Xuan estimated she was around twenty-six or twenty-seven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her short hair took away some of the softness but added a touch of valiancy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Greetings, Instructor Murong,” Lin Xuan said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhm,” Instructor Murong nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Xuan, ranking first in the selection competition is quite an achievement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But remember, within this Inner Sect, talent abounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without effort, you’ll soon be surpassed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I hope you will strive hard and reach even higher realms in Martial Arts.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for the reminder, I’ll keep it in mind,” Lin Xuan responded earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, let’s see what level you’ve reached!” Murong Qianling drew her longsword from her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Give it your all and attack me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes,” Lin Xuan’s gaze sharpened, his fingers flicking the Storage Ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dark red long sword appeared in his hand, and with a swift motion, he charged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunder Move Sword Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan had started with his best sword technique, the air rippling with sword qi and golden electric arcs dancing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that strike, he aimed straight for Murong Qianling’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But contrary to expectation, Murong Qianling didn’t retreat but advanced, countering Lin Xuan’s attack with dazzling sword light that dazzled the onlooker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long sword in Murong Qianling’s hand merely grazed Lin Xuan’s broadsword before slipping eerily toward Lin Xuan’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan suddenly felt a powerful force instantly breaking through his thunder defense, causing his sword to deviate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he felt a chill on his neck—the cold blade had already reached his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How fast!” Lin Xuan’s pupils shrank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t been able to clearly see the trajectory of that strike at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if he used his right eye, he might have been able to see clearly, but his body wouldn’t have been able to move out of the way in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If this were a battlefield, you would already be dead,” said Murong Qianling in a cold voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan knew she was right, but if it were a true life-and-death battle, with his techniques, he would definitely be able to take Murong Qianling down with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So this is the level of a Core Disciple, indeed very strong!” Lin Xuan was not discouraged at all—he believed that given time, he too would soon reach this level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your swordsmanship is fast, but not accurate enough,” Murong Qianling said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speed could suppress an opponent, but if the opponent could find your weakness and counterattack, then you’d be in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan pondered this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had indeed never encountered an opponent who could suppress him with a counter, but today’s events reminded him not to be careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, if your speed can be so fast that I have no chance to make a move, then you could also win.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for the instruction, Instructor Murong,” Lin Xuan said gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Qing, take him to get acquainted with the sect’s affairs,” Murong Qianling put away her longsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying goodbye to Murong Qianling, the two headed toward the front of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How was it, Instructor Murong is impressive, right?” Ye Qing blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t have to be downhearted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was also defeated in a single move when I started, and not even Senior Luo escaped that fate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I guess Instructor Murong just wanted to remind you that there’s always someone better out there, to prevent you from being arrogantly overconfident and causing trouble everywhere.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan gave a wry smile; it seemed his fellow disciples had all been dealt the same blow by Instructor Murong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, who is Senior Luo?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s also a disciple of Instructor Murong, joined the sect earlier than us, and is now ranked among the top thirty!” Ye Qing said with admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan began to understand what his life would be like in the future, and he changed the subject to ask about the Cultivation Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ye Qing heard that Lin Xuan had five hours of cultivation time, her mouth fell open in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Lin, you’re really lucky to have five hours of cultivation time right from the start!” Ye Qing said enviously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is five hours a long time?” Lin Xuan asked, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You just joined and don’t know how precious the Cultivation Tower is; to be precise, it’s not a product of our Xuantian Sect but an Ancient Relic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ancient Relic?” Lin Xuan was astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, although it’s damaged, its miraculous aspects are far beyond our understanding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look, that’s the Cultivation Tower right there,” Ye Qing pointed to a majestic tower in front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A towering edifice of dark black, thirteen stories high, even from afar, one could feel an ancient and vast aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only when Lin Xuan got closer that he sensed a faint but dangerous atmosphere around the tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan covertly activated his right eye and saw countless invisible light beams, which provided excellent coverage around the pagoda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It must be a Defensive Array,” Lin Xuan observed before following Ye Qing inside.\u003C\u002Fp>",1337,"2026-06-06T00:46:41.017Z",1,"novelbin.me","5d41e8b88ecfc333873f397b35c6529b1ed44c1f115684abeb75e7c9f56da3c3","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-71","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-69",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
