Chapter 56: Sword Technique Mastery, Instructor Lin Su is Provoked

"Asking me for help?"

Lin Qingya was very curious; what could she possibly help Ye Tian with?

Afterwards, Ye Tian explained that he wanted to ask Instructor Lin Su for guidance on the Dao of the Sword Technique.

"You want to learn Sword Technique from my aunt?"

Lin Qingya understood, but she was not certain about it.

"Ye Tian, I can speak to my aunt, but I don't know if she is willing to teach you."

Seeing that Lin Qingya was willing to help, Ye Tian thanked her immediately: "Many thanks!"

Donghai University.

Logistics Department.

Lin Qingya came to find her aunt, Lin Su.

Lin Su saw Lin Qingya and revealed a smile, "Qingya, you've come."

"Aunt!"

Lin Qingya called out softly.

She chatted with her aunt for a while, then stated the purpose of her visit this time, "Aunt, I have a classmate who wants to learn Sword Technique from you."

"Which classmate?" Lin Su's expression remained unchanged; her thoughts were unreadable.

"Ye Tian," Lin Qingya said calmly.

"Ye Tian?" Lin Su asked: "Is it the freshman Newcomer King Ye Tian?"

"It is him!"

Lin Qingya nodded slightly.

Lin Su was silent for a long time before she spoke: "Originally, I did not want to teach anyone, but since you asked, Qingya, I can teach him. However, I will only teach for one month. If he cannot meet my requirements after one month, I will not teach him anymore!"

"One month! That is too short!"

Although Lin Qingya did not understand Sword Technique, she knew very well that one month was at most enough to lay a foundation.

Even for a B-grade Ability, one month was not enough to reach Entry Level.

What could be done in a mere month?

Whatever her aunt's requirements were, she would just set them herself; she would probably just say he was unqualified after a month and stop teaching him.

However, this was definitely Aunt Lin Su's bottom line.

"Thank you, Aunt!"

After Lin Qingya left Aunt Lin Su, she went to find Ye Tian and told him about the situation.

"One month, that's enough!" Ye Tian had not expected to be able to study with Instructor Lin Su for a long time anyway; he only needed Instructor Lin Su to guide him to Entry Level.

Afterwards.

Under Lin Qingya's arrangement, Ye Tian met with Instructor Lin Su.

"Greetings, Instructor Lin Su!"

Ye Tian appeared very respectful.

Lin Su looked at Ye Tian and said calmly: "I have heard of you. Your talent is monstrous; to be honest, I cannot see through you. However, Sword Technique is different from Strange Art. Even those with monstrous talent for Strange Art may have no talent for weapon mastery. If you spend too much time researching and delving into it, it will instead drag down your progress."

"Instructor Lin Su, my physical constitution is powerful, and I have obtained the Mid-grade Strange Treasure Heaven Gate Sword, so I want to delve into melee weapons to enhance my combat ability," Ye Tian said.

"Your physical body is very strong? Try attacking me!"

Lin Su said.

"This..."

Ye Tian hesitated.

"Worried about hurting me?" Lin Su smiled: "I suppose you've heard that my Ability Organ is damaged and I cannot use Strange Art power? But my physical constitution is still that of a Peak Ability Grandmaster. If I don't use Strange Art, you cannot hurt me!"

"Instructor Lin Su, then I apologize!"

Ye Tian used an ordinary sword and thrust it toward Lin Su.

Lin Su pointed a finger, directly sending Ye Tian flying.

"You have actually condensed an Extraordinary Body. To possess an Extraordinary Body while at the cultivation level of an Ability Master is truly rare," Lin Su said in surprise.

"Instructor Lin Su, the power you used just now was not as great as mine, yet you were able to knock me back!"

Ye Tian saw this and asked, feeling very confused.

"This is the application of power. Grandmasters who walk the path of melee combat all control the explosion of power. Only by combining the body with the weapon can one truly unleash the power of melee combat. It looks magical, but if you don't cultivate the weapon to a certain level, it is not as good as a powerful Strange Art! That finger I used just now not only involved the explosion of physical power at the fingertip but also used Sword Technique skills, which is why I could send you flying," Lin Su said.

"I have been taught!"

Ye Tian knew he had still underestimated Lin Su.

A powerhouse who could be called invincible among Peak Ability Grandmasters, even if unable to mobilize Strange Art power, still possessed powerful combat strength, enough to instantly kill an ordinary Grandmaster.

If he were to go all out now and use all his methods, he probably wouldn't necessarily be able to defeat Grandmaster Lin Su.

"For the next month, do not go to the Earth Cave World; follow me to cultivate Sword Technique!"

Lin Su demanded.

"Yes!"

Ye Tian replied.

Lin Qingya did not cultivate Sword Technique, so she left.

Donghai University, a training room.

Ye Tian and Lin Su arrived here.

"Next, I will teach you a Basic Sword Technique developed by humans. I will give you three days; once you have learned it, come find me again!"

Lin Su began to demonstrate the Basic Sword Technique for Ye Tian.

Relying on his powerful memory, Ye Tian recorded this Basic Sword Technique.

Afterward, Ye Tian practiced here, while Lin Su left.

After Lin Su left, Ye Tian directly used the Enlightenment Technique to boost his comprehension to practice the Basic Sword Technique.

Five minutes later.

The Basic Sword Technique reached Consummation!

However, he still waited for over an hour before coming to find Lin Su.

"Instructor Lin Su, I have learned the Basic Sword Technique!"

Ye Tian said excitedly.

"What, you learned it???" Lin Su frowned, "Learning it isn't just about performing the moves; you need to grasp the essence of the sword technique."

"Instructor Lin Su, let me perform it for you to see!"

Ye Tian directly performed the Basic Sword Technique one by one.

When Ye Tian finished performing, Lin Su was dumbfounded.

"This is the Basic Sword Technique at the Consummation Realm."

She could not find any flaws in such a Basic Sword Technique.

"Have you learned the Basic Sword Technique before?" Lin Su asked.

"I have not."

Ye Tian shook his head.

Lin Su did not know whether to believe him or not, but that was no longer important.

"Next, I will teach you sixteen types of sword fighting techniques. Once you have mastered them thoroughly, come find me again. This time, I will give you ten days—no, three days!"

Lin Su performed all sixteen sword fighting techniques one by one; each move did not constitute a full sword technique, but they were all basic killing moves capable of slaying enemies, representing a preliminary application of physical strength.

This time.

Ye Tian used the Enlightenment Technique and spent one hour learning all these basic killing moves, and performed them perfectly.

When Lin Su saw Ye Tian perform these killing moves, some of which were her own unique creations that Ye Tian could not have learned in advance.

At this moment, she had to admit that Ye Tian was truly a monster!

"Next, I will teach you the true Dao of sword techniques!"

Lin Su taught him one by one the many profound techniques and mysteries of the Dao of sword techniques, such as the application of physical strength, the unity of sword and body, and how to seize opportunities in battle.

Furthermore, she frequently sparred with Ye Tian, feeding him moves to allow Ye Tian to grow rapidly.

And with the help of the Enlightenment Technique, Ye Tian did not disappoint Lin Su, rapidly reaching Entry Level in his sword technique with a terrifying growth speed.

Ten days later, Ye Tian's sword technique reached Small Success.

Twenty days later, Ye Tian's sword technique reached Great Success.

"Ye Tian, you can leave now!"

Lin Su waved her hand and said.

"Instructor Lin Su, didn't you say one month? It hasn't been that long yet!"

Ye Tian said hurriedly.

"Your sword technique has already reached Great Success, what else do you need me to instruct you on? At your terrifying speed of progress, I estimate that in another half a month, you could reach the Micro Level in sword technique. I have only reached the Consummation level in sword technique realm myself."

"You have already completed your apprenticeship. From now on, you only need to practice continuously, fight against the alien races in the Underground Cave, increase your combat experience, and hone yourself step by step to improve your sword technique realm. Perhaps, you will have the chance to comprehend Sword Intent in the future!"

There was a hint of bitterness in Lin Su's words.

If she had possessed talent as monstrous as Ye Tian's, she would surely have comprehended Sword Intent long ago and would not have had her Ability Organ injured by the alien races, becoming what she was today.

"Thank you for your guidance, Instructor Lin Su!"

Ye Tian took his leave.

He decided that if he found a way in the future, he would help Instructor Lin Su repair her Ability Organ.

Subsequently.

He set off from Donghai University, arrived at the entrance to the Earth Cave World, and entered the East Sea Fortress.

War Merit Hall.

He came to exchange for Battle Merit.

He had not yet exchanged those Identity Tokens he had obtained in the Wanxiang Strange Realm!
