I can’t see a single trace of prior sword training.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang He shook his head helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, the man before him looked nothing but a green boy, utterly untrained in martial arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No—he knew nothing at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For most of these seven days, they had practiced only fundamentals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, sword fundamentals aren’t hard to learn—just repeating the same few moves over and over—but to build solid roots requires years of relentless practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There simply wasn’t enough time, so Tang He taught only one technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thrust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every day, he corrected Dou Changsheng’s mistakes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, at dusk, he taught the Fearless Sword Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As dusk fell and it was time to practice the Fearless Sword Art, Tang He watched Dou Changsheng swing his arm, the rusted longsword thrust forward, its tip erupting with Primordial internal qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three inches of white qi, pure and arrogant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang He felt slightly reassured—if not for this genuine Primordial internal qi, he would have truly believed Dou Changsheng knew nothing at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything else could be faked, but this Primordial internal qi was real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since Tang He had personally felt it—the quality of this internal qi was extraordinarily high, surpassing ordinary Primordial qi. This could not be achieved by any common Primordial martial art; though he had never seen the Wang family’s ultimate technique, the Three Yuan Qi Gathering Scripture, Tang He was certain this was it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also felt the same sigh of awe as Black Eagle Elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Three Yuan Qi Gathering Scripture had been cultivated for over a decade—it was deeply rooted, unchangeable, for he had already broken through to Primordial using it, and could not now destroy his own cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he had no choice but to keep using it, but all other martial arts could be treated as if he’d never learned them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly, love what you do, do what you love.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Dou Changsheng, no doubt worthy of the Wang family’s direct lineage, had truly become an outsider since leaving the Wang household, merely stumbling upon a fragment of the Three Yuan Qi Gathering Scripture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang He had tested him these past days—he called out “Dou Changsheng” at midnight, and the man reacted instantly, without hesitation or thought. That alone proved everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further, when asked about the Three Yuan Qi Gathering Scripture, Dou Changsheng only admitted to having found a fragment of an unnamed scripture, never acknowledging he had learned the Three Yuan Qi Gathering Scripture. Look—this was detail, this was consistency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Tang He was instructing Dou Changsheng to continue training, Black Eagle Elder returned after being gone for several days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng promptly sheathed his rusted sword, wiped sweat from his brow, and stepped forward to greet him. Black Eagle Elder wasted no time: “In these past days—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I had others disguise themselves as if leaving.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The timing is right—we can depart officially now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder turned to Tang He: “Tang young master, you came straight to Junxian to rendezvous and have remained unseen—you must not appear in the open. Hide your trail, stay in the shadows.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder looked at Dou Changsheng: “So this time, we must rely on you, Dou young master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You will carry the package, walk in the open, and draw the enemy’s attention.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The contents inside are not real. At the critical moment, prioritize your survival—don’t care about the package’s contents.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will take another route. Tang young master will follow the true military payroll.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder’s plan was simple: both he and Tang He were exposed, so they wouldn’t travel together. Both would carry packages, take two separate routes, forcing the enemy to split their pursuit and lighten the pressure on each.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang He, unexposed, would secretly protect the true payroll route.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng had no objections to this plan; in fact, he breathed easier—when the moment came, he could tear open the package to reveal it was fake, giving him a decent chance of survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since he was a late addition, not trusted, and the payroll had not been entrusted to him—he felt no resentment, for it was only natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Dou Changsheng thought of his own luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had always been cursed—he had to prepare for the worst, so he asked: “Old elder, can you be certain this one isn’t real?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a life-or-death question—he had to know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder nodded decisively, then tossed the package to him. Dou Changsheng caught it, slung it over his shoulder, and said slowly: “Why not split into three routes?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tang brother hasn’t been exposed—he could carry the package and slip quietly to Jianmen Pass, while we draw attention.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder shook his head: “There’s no choice. This package looks ordinary, but it has the special ability to block qi signatures. The Yang Realm master’s blood—each drop is scorching hot, like lava. It’s far too conspicuous.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Combined with certain secret techniques, without this special package, the pursuers would never believe it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we split into three routes, one will inevitably be easily identified as fake.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The magistrate’s office was unprepared, and time was too tight. After arriving in Junxian, we only planned for two routes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Black Eagle Elder explained, Dou Changsheng understood why he had to be involved—he replaced the knife-wielder and preserved the original plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Black Eagle Elder might not be telling the truth—but Dou Changsheng hoped he wasn’t. It made the elder seem more capable, and increased the chance of successfully completing this payroll mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the payroll was gone, he would no longer draw attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder slung the package over his shoulder and looked at Tang He: “If things turn hopeless, don’t save me—take the payroll and go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My life is unimportant. But the border troops must be calmed—absolutely no letting the Hu Ren’s plot succeed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang He replied solemnly: “Old elder, rest assured.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Upholding justice, saving the dying—these are the very foundations of the Heavenly Sword Sect. If I, Tang He, were to fear death, I would be unworthy of being a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No time to waste—let’s leave the city.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Eagle Elder and Tang He were men of decisive action—in an instant, they vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Dou Changsheng sat successfully inside a wine vat, breathing the pungent stench, enduring the discomfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vat was sealed, pitch-black inside, only the sounds of shouts, chatter, and hoofbeats reaching him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After an unknown time, someone walked to the vat and tapped three times—the agreed signal. Dou Changsheng rose instantly and burst out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the damp towel handed to him and wiped himself down—the special herbs dissolved the alcohol smell, and he changed into fresh clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng glanced at the middle-aged servant, who said nothing. Dou Changsheng said nothing either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He concealed the package beneath his clothes, made a few adjustments, mounted his horse, and galloped toward Jianmen Pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Riding the horse, feeling the jolts, Dou Changsheng had many questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the package’s falsity could be easily determined, why did those who disguised themselves as leaving Junxian draw the pursuers’ attention?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were many similar puzzles—but Dou Changsheng didn’t ask. The reason was simple: Black Eagle Elder and Tang He clearly followed a fixed plan, orchestrated by a greater power. If they did this, there had to be a reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s assume the decoys can fool the pursuers for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng rode his horse, his mind going blank, and glanced at his system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The [Beautiful Life System], silent for days, had unexpectedly issued a new task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Beautiful Memory: Time flows like water—in an instant, two years have passed. At twenty, you return to the northern lands and recall the past: you, with no cultivation, driven only by passion, dared to block the iron-armored lion Wang Xiong. You sigh deeply—Wang Xiong, once invincible, can now be slain with a single gesture, even without striking his Shenque vital point. Cultivate for one hour. Reward: Basic Sword Technique—Thrust (Perfected).]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task: (Completed!)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the most satisfying thing when you see a task?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course—it’s realizing the task is already done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I must admit: your future self has consumed many of Dou Changsheng’s good fortunes, but this achievement wasn’t gained by chance—he worked hard too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In these seven days, Dou Changsheng had Tang He, a Primordial martial artist, as his teacher—excellent instruction, a master personally guiding him—but progress was minimal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His movements kept going wrong; even after corrections, his fundamentals remained shaky, easily disrupted, causing his posture to warp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t due to low talent—it was simply too little time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give Dou Changsheng one or two months, and things would be different. After all, every swordsman trains relentlessly since childhood, practicing through the coldest winters and hottest summers, day after day of sweat, until one day they astonish the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, this flaw could be corrected—and especially with that word “Perfected,” it was extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These basic techniques are easy to learn, but mastering them depends on individual talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who can perfect the basic moves are as rare as phoenix feathers or unicorn horns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng immediately claimed the quest reward, and instantly felt his body changing; a new memory appeared in his mind—memories of his arduous practice of the basic sword technique: Thrust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Again and again he struck, each thrust perfectly standard, yet utterly mechanical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the background shifted from scorching summer to swirling snow, each strike carried a unique rhythm, losing its stiffness and rigidity, gaining instead an indescribable quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rain and snow alternated endlessly; after countless repetitions, the scene shattered abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng had now fully mastered this basic sword technique; his sword art surged forward. Though he still knew nothing else, the resulting effects were immediate—he gained profound new insights into the Fearless Sword Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many things he once did not understand were now clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but sigh: the system was stingy to a fault. He had reached perfection in the basic sword technique—Thrust—but received no experience points for any other sword techniques. It made no sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s like growing taller: when you grow, your strength and stamina naturally improve too—all aspects rise together. But here, nothing else changed. He still knew nothing else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fearless Sword Art could not possibly be mastered in seven days—but now it was different. This basic technique—Thrust—was extremely similar to the Fearless Sword Art, differing only in its more advanced use of qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword strikes were nearly identical; the difference lay solely in the application of primordial internal qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Dou Changsheng successfully entered the realm of the Fearless Sword Art in one decisive step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Riding at full gallop, Dou Changsheng felt a surge of exhilaration, suddenly convinced that the world was vast and he could go anywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even entertained the dangerous thought of seeking out masters to duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His exhilaration lasted less than a quarter hour before he sobered up—he had swallowed a bellyful of northwest wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His swagger lasted no more than three seconds. After calming himself, he no longer feared danger: he possessed primordial internal qi and primordial sword art. Against a normal primordial martial artist, he could hold his own for one or two strikes. Against any post-heaven martial artist, as long as he ended the fight quickly, it was no problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t last long in a prolonged battle—but three-second man? He could manage that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t a very dignified title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now he had risen—he was no longer the ignorant Meng of Wu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly tugging the reins, Dou Changsheng gazed ahead at Wang Xiong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several days apart, the old rival met again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the other had grown stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was now a primordial martial artist!\u003C\u002Fp>",2315,"2026-06-20T23:35:01.027Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e284971ead3f1f7af4cd3265d300263b292398aae3b34de6633b97fb321dc495","system-you-ve-got-the-wrong-person-chapter-6","system-you-ve-got-the-wrong-person-chapter-4",470,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsystem-you-ve-got-the-wrong-person-cover.jpg"]
