Chapter 102

The fourth private room in the South District.

Lu Lu Xiaofeng said with surprise, "Xue Xue Yiren, I didn't know there was such a top-tier swordsman in the Great Ming martial arts world back then."

"The radiance of Xie Lu Xiaofeng in that era was too great, shining on the world, making all swordsmen look dull."

"Although Xue Xue Yiren was the swordsman second only to Xie Lu Xiaofeng in that era, it was still hard for him to radiate his own light."

"Perhaps that’s why he chose to seal his sword and live in retirement after Xie Lu Xiaofeng fell."

"He didn't want the younger generation of swordsmen to bear this kind of pressure."

Hua Hua Manlou said with emotion.

Ximen Ximen Chuixue on the side remained silent, only tightening his grip on the black-sheathed sword in his hand.

If Xue Xue Yiren hadn't voluntarily sealed his sword, with his arrogant mindset at the time, he would definitely have gone to challenge him.

What would the result have been?

A few years ago, his sword path was far less exquisite than it is now.

And Xue Xue Yiren had been honing himself at the peak of the sword path for over a dozen years.

Ximen Ximen Chuixue estimated that if he had gone to challenge Xue Xue Yiren at that time, he would likely have lost.

For a swordsman, defeat is a very terrifying thing.

Because the most important thing for a swordsman is an invincible heart.

An invincible heart that says, no matter who it is, I will defeat them with one sword.

If one loses the invincible heart, the sword intent will become stagnant.

At best, one will stop progressing; at worst, one’s state of mind will shatter, and one’s realm will fall.

For example, the old Sword God Li Li Chungang under the Tingchao Pavilion, once his state of mind broke, his realm fell several levels immediately.

So from this point of view, he is undoubtedly lucky.

In the era when he rose to prominence, the number one Sword God Xie Lu Xiaofeng fell, and the second Sword God Xue Xue Yiren sealed his sword and retired.

These two Sword Gods who could have caused him setbacks exited the stage one after another, leaving the stage to him.

If it were someone else, they might have felt lucky about this.

But he is Ximen Ximen Chuixue, the cold Sword God who considers himself invincible in the world.

His heart is as proud as Xue Xue Yiren’s, and he disdains to have this name of number one Sword God that does not live up to its name.

So he only felt aggrieved at this moment.

Not having fought Xie Lu Xiaofeng, not having defeated Xue Xue Yiren, his title of number one Sword God is more like a joke.

The seventh private room in the South District.

Zuo Zuo Lengchan could no longer remain calm.

"With Xue Xue Yiren’s sword path, he is only ranked seventh on the Sword God Ranking?"

Zuo Zuo Lengchan muttered in disbelief.

As an older figure, he knew Xue Xue Yiren’s name very well.

In that era, Xue Xue Yiren was the strongest swordsman under Xie Lu Xiaofeng.

The three words "Blood-Clothed Man" carried heavy weight in the martial arts world; who didn't respect him?

At least Zuo Zuo Lengchan knew he was definitely not Xue Xue Yiren’s match at the time.

And such a powerful swordsman is only ranked seventh on the Sword God Ranking?

Then can there still be a position for him ahead of this?

A very bad premonition emerged in Zuo Zuo Lengchan’s heart.

That was that he had overestimated himself too much.

With his sword technique, he was not enough to make the Sword God Ranking at all.

If that were true,

wouldn't his trip here have become a huge joke?

"No, I don’t believe it!"

Zuo Zuo Lengchan roared in his heart, his eyes looking coldly toward the White Jade Platform.

He couldn't wait to know who the Sword Gods behind were.

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen was drinking tea with interest.

His guess was correct.

Adding appropriate rhetorical devices when commenting on characters could greatly increase the growth rate of popularity points.

After all, in this era, everyone worships the strong, and even more worship heroes, heroes with stories.

The Xue Xue Yiren he described, with peerless sword path talent but a tragic life, clearly resonated with many people.

Now, his popularity points were approaching the 600,000 mark.

And compared to Xue Xue Yiren, the next Sword God to be revealed was even more heavyweight.

Thinking of this, Su Chen couldn't wait for everyone to discuss it, directly unfolded his fan, and said slowly:

"Sixth place on the Sword God Ranking, Ximen Ximen Chuixue."

Boom!

Just ten words, but it was as if a mountain had collapsed.

The hall, which was originally boiling, instantly fell silent.

Everyone’s movements froze at this moment, like ice sculptures.

The long-awaited Ximen Ximen Chuixue had finally made the list.

This number one Sword God of the new era, wearing the title of Xie Lu Xiaofeng’s successor, was worshipped by a million swordsmen.

Some swordsmen even claimed that this era was Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s era.

The only one who could compete with him was Ye Ye Gucheng, the West Sea’s number one Sword God.

In everyone’s view, the top two Sword Gods of the Great Ming had to be these two.

However, Su Chen’s words gave everyone a head-on blow, making their brains roar and tremble.

Ximen Ximen Chuixue had indeed made the list.

But he was only ranked sixth.

Sixth place on the Sword God Ranking!

This meant there were five more swordsmen in the Great Ming whose strength was above Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s.

This was something no one had expected.

If it weren't for the fact that Su Chen already had the reputation of a human immortal,

just based on this sentence, those supporters of Ximen Ximen Chuixue could have smashed the Tongfu Inn.

Even so, the discussions of the crowd erupted uncontrollably.

"Oh my god! Did I hear that right? Ximen Ximen Chuixue is actually ranked sixth on the Sword God Ranking?"

"This is absolutely impossible! Ximen Ximen Chuixue has never been defeated since he debuted; who dares to say they can defeat him?"

"There must be a dark secret here; besides Ye Ye Gucheng, Ximen Ximen Chuixue is invincible in the world."

"I believe Mr. Su’s ranking is absolutely correct; it can only be said that the Great Ming martial arts world is full of hidden talents."

"Just listen patiently; I believe Mr. Su will definitely give a reasonable explanation."

In the great hall, it was bustling.

Those who were most emotional were the young swordsmen.

They had almost all grown up with the name Ximen Ximen Chuixue, and they regarded Ximen Ximen Chuixue as their idol in their hearts.

They couldn't accept the fact that Ximen Ximen Chuixue was not the number one Sword God in the world.

In contrast, many older martial arts heroes were much calmer.

They had been in the martial arts world for decades.

They had seen too many storms.
