Marks!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten Inches!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xie Yongbing from the Genius Group could only leave three-inch Sword Marks, all the warriors present were astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chorus of gasps came from the warriors in the Advanced Group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the warriors in the Low-Level Group, they were thoroughly dispirited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They thought, if even the peerless geniuses of the Genius Group could barely leave three-inch Sword Marks, how could they, the Low-Level Group warriors, possibly pass the monthly exam?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Baoyu continued to call out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, the warriors of the Genius Group stepped forward one by one to begin their assessment of Sword Heart Clarity’s level of cultivation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sword Marks two inches!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second attempt, Sword Marks three inches!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sword Marks one inch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second attempt, Sword Marks two inches, truly a disgrace to the Genius Group!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next, Sword Marks three inches, second attempt, Sword Marks four inches, not bad, not bad!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than a hundred warriors from the Genius Group stepped forward to begin their tests all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The majority scored around three-inch Sword Marks, with a very few achieving four inches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some warriors did not even pass, only having two-inch Sword Marks!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three left!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jian Ruohan, it’s your turn!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong scanned through the ranks of the Genius Group, noting only Jian Ruohan, Yejian Qiu, and Longqing Feng remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong smiled as he looked at Jian Ruohan, filled with confidence in his heart for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Ruohan was a warrior invited by Dugu Yun, and since joining the Sword Art Academy, she had shown immense strength and had been diligently hardworking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Ruohan stepped forward lightly and stood on the Sword Testing Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She circulated her Spiritual Power, summoning the forces of Nature, concentrating them on her Longsword!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one strike, she hit the Sword Testing Stone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong looked intently and said softly, “Sword Marks five inches!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not bad, you have another opportunity!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Ruohan nodded lightly and, for her second opportunity, she did not rush to strike but instead focused and steadied her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The first sword strike left five-inch Sword Marks, so Jian Ruohan’s second sword strike must be at least six inches.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Incredible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The talents of the Genius Group indeed live up to their reputation!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many were looking at Jian Ruohan with astonishment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only the warriors from the Advanced and Low-Level Groups but also those from the Genius Group had incredulous expressions on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sword Marks five inches, that was the best performance so far!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, Jian Ruohan was ready once again, an overwhelming icy aura emanating from her, accompanied by a sword flash that burst forth, swift as lightning, with a sound as thunderous, striking the Sword Testing Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sword strike caused the entire Sword Art Academy Arena to tremble thrice!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could only imagine how powerful Jian Ruohan’s sword strike was!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Bai, observing Jian Ruohan, chuckled and said, “It’s settled, this sword strike must have left at least eight-inch Sword Marks!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Bufan, utterly astounded, looked at Lin Bai and said, “Eight-inch Sword Marks, my heavens, isn’t this person a monster!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Bai, are you sure you’re not mistaken?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Bai gave a faint smile, neither affirming nor denying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong, sensing the extraordinary nature of Jian Ruohan’s sword strike, immediately focused his gaze, and said with satisfaction, “Jian Ruohan, your second sword stroke, eight-inch Sword Marks!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eight-inch Sword Marks!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The first sword five inches, the second eight inches!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s terrifying!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not only is this woman beautiful, but she’s also so powerful!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eight-inch Sword Marks, it’s a certain victory, Jian Ruohan is definitely among the top ten in this assessment!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the warriors present, whether from the Genius Group or the Advanced and Low-Level Groups, gasped in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Ruohan looked at the eight-inch Sword Marks on the Sword Testing Stone and thought to herself, “Eight-inch Sword Marks, Lin Bai, I wonder how many inches you could leave on this Sword Testing Stone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I think it should be deeper than mine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she thought to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right at that moment, Jian Ruohan was taking her test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the Sword Art Academy Arena, there stood a pagoda from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pagoda was exquisitely built, appearing just like a sword tower from a distance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like a Sharp Sword, thrust into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Atop the sword tower, on the very top floor, two old men stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Ji said with a faint smile, “The dean truly has a discerning eye, picking out Jian Ruohan as a sword art prodigy the moment he saw her at the Famous Sword Manor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These eight-inch Sword Marks are indeed a score that could rank within the top hundred of the Sword Art Academy over the last decade.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Ji said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man beside Pei Ji was none other than Dugu Yun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Yun had said when parting with Lin Bai at the Famous Sword Manor that he was going to Lingnan to take care of some matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Dugu Yun had reappeared in the Sword Art Academy, it was likely that the matters in Lingnan had been settled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Yun glanced at Jian Ruohan and said with a light smile, “She is not much yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke these words, Dugu Yun’s gaze began to search the grounds of the Sword Art Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Ji, curious, looked at Dugu Yun and asked, “Dean, what are you looking for?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Yun spoke with a look of concern, “I’m looking for someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s strange; he is a Sword Cultivator, and it’s illogical that he wouldn’t choose the Sword Art Academy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Ji asked, “Dean, who are you looking for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe I can help you search?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Yun laughed lightly, “Never mind, he will appear when the time comes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Sword Art Academy Arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Jian Ruohan stepped down, only Longqing Feng and Yejian Qiu were left in the Genius Group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong asked, “Which of you two will go first?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yejian Qiu, with a slight smile, asked, “Brother Long, how about you go first?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Longqing Feng chuckled softly and said, “Then I shall humbly comply.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He responded and approached the Sword Testing Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew his Treasure Sword, concentrated, and struck a fierce blow upward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong looked intently, “The first strike, Sword Marks of seven inches!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only seven inches?” Longqing Feng was clearly dissatisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Longqing Feng once again gathered the forces of nature and struck fiercely once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A violent shaking that moved the earth and mountains followed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong looked again, exclaiming, “The second strike!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sword Marks of nine inches!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good heavens!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nine-inch Sword Marks, doesn’t that mean he’s even stronger than Jian Ruohan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a freakishly talented person!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of Warriors, upon hearing of the nine-inch Sword Marks, were shocked and exclaimed in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Longqing Feng smiled coldly, “Now that’s more like it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Ye, it’s your turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With your ability, I presume that your understanding of Divine Power is deeper than mine, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yejian Qiu said with a wry smile, “Brother Long’s nine-inch Sword Marks are like a legend come to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m afraid my understanding of Divine Power couldn’t possibly keep up with yours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Longqing Feng scoffed, “What are you talking about, Brother Ye?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We haven’t even compared yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How would you know that your understanding of Divine Power is not as profound as mine?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough idle talk, Brother Ye, please proceed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yejian Qiu walked up to the Sword Testing Stone with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong reminded, “Yejian Qiu, you may begin once you’re ready.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood!” Yejian Qiu smiled faintly and immediately drew his Treasure Sword, swinging it with an effortless flick!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sword fell, without a trace of earth-shaking strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the strike, Yejian Qiu instantly sheathed his sword and rejoined the Genius Group, saying, “This sword is my strongest strike; there’s no need for a second.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong was taken aback, quickly turning with Lin Baoyu to look at the Sword Testing Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What they saw took them by surprise, stunning both Minghong and Lin Baoyu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minghong exclaimed, “Sword Marks!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten inches!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Minghong announced Yejian Qiu’s result, the crowd burst into exclamations once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Yejian Qiu’s stroke, Lin Bai instantly said, “He’s still hiding his strength!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1377,"2026-05-29T14:40:16.715Z","2026-06-01T04:29:32.613Z",1,"novelbin.me","1560a474d47edded8265e9a09400c5c0fb6077871e5b864f3186767913678c2c","the-unparalleled-sword-emperor-chapter-881","the-unparalleled-sword-emperor-chapter-879",2737,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-unparalleled-sword-emperor-cover.jpg"]
