Chapter 103
They had also seen too many stars like Ximen Ximen Chuixue who shone for a while.
And they knew well that the martial arts world is forgetful.
Not to mention the distant ones, Xue Xue Yiren, who had retired for ten years, was rarely mentioned anymore.
Not to mention those even more distant sword path powerhouses.
After all, not every swordsman is determined to become famous in the world; there are also those who practice silently without asking about the future.
A hundred years in the martial arts world, how many eras have passed, how many powerhouses have faded away,
Ximen Ximen Chuixue being ranked sixth on the Sword God Ranking is not low.
Besides these people, there were a few swordsmen whose hearts were broken.
Ximen Ximen Chuixue making the list meant that even the strongest Sword God of the contemporary era was only so-so.
Then it was even more impossible for them to make the list.
Although their hope of making the list was very small to begin with.
But Ximen Ximen Chuixue making the list undoubtedly completely cut off their thoughts and sentenced them to death.
The second private room in the West District.
Brother Duan Brother Duan Tianya said with a bitter smile, "It seems I underestimated the swordsmen of the world and underestimated the Great Ming martial arts world."
Although he had always appeared indifferent before this.
But deep in his heart, he had always been full of anticipation for the Sword God Ranking.
He wanted to know what rank his phantom sword, which fused Eastern Ninja techniques, could reach in the world.
Not in the top three, at least it should be in the top five, right?
But Ximen Ximen Chuixue making the list completely shattered his hope.
According to this ranking method, it was highly unlikely that he would make the list.
"Big Brother Brother Duan, don’t be discouraged."
"Although Mr. Su has the ability of divine judgment, he might not know everything in the world."
"Your sword technique was learned in the East; no matter how powerful Mr. Su is, it’s impossible for him to know, right?"
Shangguan Shangguan Haitang tried to comfort Brother Duan Brother Duan Tianya.
Brother Duan Brother Duan Tianya nodded slightly.
These words did make him feel better, but...
Brother Duan Brother Duan Tianya looked at Su Chen, who was calm and composed on the White Jade Platform; would this person really not know his phantom sword technique?
The fourth private room in the South District.
Ximen Ximen Chuixue clenched his fists tightly, making a sound of bones dislocating, but he didn't notice it at all.
In his mind, he was still thinking about what Su Chen had just said.
Sixth place on the Sword God Ranking!
This was a ranking he absolutely could not accept.
Hua Hua Manlou and Sikong Sikong Zhaixing on the side were so scared they didn't dare to breathe.
They could still understand Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s mood.
Besides being obsessed with the sword path, Ximen Ximen Chuixue also had an arrogant heart that no one could compare to.
Especially in terms of the sword path, he had never submitted to anyone.
In fact, Ximen Ximen Chuixue had indeed never been defeated since he became famous.
The sixth place on the Sword God Ranking was undoubtedly a bucket of cold water poured on his head.
On the White Jade Platform.
Su Chen ignored everyone’s discussions and continued to comment:
"Ximen Ximen Chuixue can be called a genius of the sword path; he learned the sword at seven and directly entered the realm of self-forgetfulness."
"There is a kind of sword technique that few people have seen, because those who were lucky enough to witness it have already been buried."
"There is a kind of loneliness that cannot be described, because it originates from the depths of the soul."
"This is Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s sword path."
"Entrusting feelings to the sword; the more heartless one is in the heart, the sharper the sword in the palm."
"When he reaches true detachment, his sword technique will have no flaws."
"But the current Ximen Ximen Chuixue is still far from this realm."
"A sentimental swordsman with a heartless sword, the power is ultimately hard to reach the peak."
"Therefore, considering various factors, he is tentatively ranked sixth on the Sword God Ranking."
Su Chen finished his commentary, and there was another sigh in the hall.
The evaluation of this commentary was undoubtedly very high.
Ximen Ximen Chuixue had his own sword path; this was the necessary path for every Grandmaster who inherits the past and ushers in the future.
From this point of view, Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s upper limit would be very terrifying.
But his sword path was simply too difficult.
Many swordsmen in the hall shook their heads because of this.
Although they worshipped Ximen Ximen Chuixue, they could not identify with Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s sword path.
Living in the world, who can truly achieve detachment?
Most people in the world are mediocre; most people learn sword techniques to become famous and to win the heart of a beauty.
If they were to abandon everything for the sake of sword techniques, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?
The fourth private room in the South District.
A flash of light crossed Ximen Ximen Chuixue’s eyes.
Never expected that his sword path would be broken by Su Chen in one word.
That’s right.
His sword path was exactly the path of heartlessness.
So besides Lu Lu Xiaofeng, he didn't have a single person who could be called a friend.
But he didn't care about these things; as long as he had the sword by his side, it was enough.
"Mr. Su said my realm is still far from heartless; could it be because..."
Ximen Ximen Chuixue muttered to himself, subconsciously looking toward the Emei Sect’s private room.
Practicing the sword in the bamboo forest, even the servants in the manor could see that his sword technique was not smooth.
How could he not know it himself?
Ever since he had that glimpse, ever since he looked at Sun Sun Xiuqing one more time in the crowd.
His sword technique had a knot.
He knew exactly where the knot was, but he couldn't bear to cut it.
These days, he had been avoiding this problem.
But he knew very well in his heart that he would have to make a choice one day.
Make a choice between the heartless sword path he had insisted on all his life and Sun Sun Xiuqing.
"Ding!"
"The host has exposed martial arts secrets in the casual talk, causing a sensation throughout the venue; you are rewarded with 12,000 popularity points."
"Storytelling popularity has exceeded 684,000 points."
"The host has accumulated six Golden Lottery Cards, eight Silver Lottery Cards, and four Bronze Lottery Cards."
"Please keep up the good work, host."
Seven hundred thousand popularity points are in sight!
Watching the crazily rising popularity points, Su Chen’s enthusiasm was fully mobilized.
Without waiting for everyone to discuss, Su Chen continued to speak:
"Next, let’s comment on the next Sword God."
