Chapter 821

Guan Yutian sneered: "A mere Xiongba has never been in my eyes; the key is the people on the list who follow."

Ren Qianxing nodded upon hearing this.

Xiongba was only ranked sixth on the Wu Huang List.

Above him, there were still five even more powerful Martial Emperors!

Thinking of this, Ren Qianxing couldn't help but gaze toward the Bai Yu Platform, wanting to know what other hidden experts there were in this Jianghu.

……

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen sipped some clear tea, facing the expectant gazes of the crowd, and without playing coy, he said directly:

"Next, let us review the next Wu Huang on the list."

"Fifth place on the Wu Huang List, Pojun."

"Regarding this Wu Huang, I presume many fellow martial artists are very unfamiliar with him."

"But in reality, his background is very astonishing; he is the biological son of Jian Hui, the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect."

"Back when the Sword Sect was in its prime, it would not be an exaggeration to say it was the number one force in the Great Han Jianghu; even the Supreme Alliance and the Sea Shark Palace dared not challenge its edge."

"But the Sword Sect, which was at its zenith, declined rapidly in just a few decades."

"The biggest reason for this lies in this Pojun."

"This person's internal energy cultivation is similar to Xiongba's; both are at the peak level of the Wu Huang Realm."

"At the same time, his insidiousness, cunning, and shamelessness are enough to rival Xiongba's."

"If you wish to know the details, please listen as Su slowly recounts them."

"This Pojun was originally the son of Jian Hui, the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect, and had extremely high martial arts talent, entering the Wu Huang Realm at a young age."

"But his nature was extremely cruel and shameless; he often took pleasure in hurting others, and everyone in the sect despised him."

"Although his father, Jian Hui, was the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect, he was not the strongest in the Sword Sect; according to the Sword Sect's rules, he could not cultivate the Sword Sect's supreme art, 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin'."

"Jian Hui felt deep regret about this, so he pinned all his hopes on Pojun, hoping that Pojun could become the strongest of his generation and cultivate 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin'."

"Pojun lived up to Jian Hui's expectations; at just over twenty years old, he had already become the number one expert of the Sword Sect's younger generation."

"But just at this time, an unexpected person appeared, and that was Wuming."

"When reviewing the Kyushu Sword God List earlier, Su already mentioned the reason Wuming joined the Sword Sect."

"At that time, Wuming had no cultivation at all, but because he obtained the Hero Sword forged by the Great Swordsman, he was highly anticipated by everyone in the sect."

"Pojun therefore deeply hated Wuming and actually used Wuming's mother, who was in critical condition, to threaten Wuming into taking a palm strike from him."

"Wuming was worried about his mother's safety and was forced to agree."

"But what Pojun did not expect was that although Wuming's cultivation was ruined, his sword dao attainments had already reached the state of mastery; with just a tree branch, he broke Pojun's fierce palm strike."

"Pojun was therefore even more resentful and wanted to put Wuming to death at every turn."

"Afterward, Wuming gradually recovered his cultivation and became close friends with the Sword Sect's senior apprentice brother, Chen Feng."

"The two witnessed Pojun's evil deeds many times and hated them deeply, intervening many times, which made Pojun's inner anger uncontrollable."

"Later on, Pojun confessed his love to the woman he loved, Xiao Yu, and was ruthlessly rejected; in his anger, he actually planned to forcibly take Xiao Yu."

"Just at this time, Wuming arrived and saved Xiao Yu; the two fell in love because of this and became husband and wife."

"Pojun was narrow-minded and, seeing this situation, became even more resentful, burying the seeds of hatred in his heart."

"Again and again later, Pojun took advantage of a sect competition to ruthlessly kill Wuming's good friend, Chen Feng."

"And although Jian Hui knew Pojun was wrong, he deliberately favored him, only punishing Pojun with four years of wall-facing, making all the Sword Sect disciples dissatisfied and gradually turning against him."

As Su Chen's voice fell, a chorus of 'boos' erupted in the hall.

Everyone revealed expressions of disdain.

Although this Pojun had an astonishing background and strength that even surpassed Xiongba's.

But the crowd could not feel the slightest respect for him; instead, they were full of contempt.

Because Pojun was simply too 'scummy'.

By comparison, although Xiongba was also insidious and cunning, using every possible means, he could at least be called a treacherous hero.

And every time Xiongba used insidious tricks, he had a clear goal, and he achieved them all.

Look at Pojun again; he was simply a piece of trash and human scum.

As the son of the Sword Sect Leader, breaking through to the Wu Huang Realm at a young age—this was the configuration of a peerless prodigy.

But what did he do?

Bullying fellow sect members daily.

Using Wuming's mother to threaten Wuming into taking his palm strike.

Confessing to the woman he loved, and when rejected, wanting to forcibly take her.

Taking advantage of the sect competition to use insidious tricks to murder his senior apprentice brother.

This was truly not doing a single human thing.

The crowd even felt that after hearing Pojun's various insidious behaviors, even Xiongba looked refined and pleasant.

It could even be said that Pojun was not even fit to carry Xiongba's shoes!

If the two exchanged identities.

If Xiongba were the young master of the Sword Sect, he would have long ago obtained 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin', and the grass on Wuming's grave would be two meters high.

And Pojun? With his insidious personality, even if he apprenticed under the Three Absolutes Elder, he would have been expelled from the sect within two months at most.

At the same time, many people couldn't help but sigh.

This Wuming was truly Pojun's nemesis of fate.

He joined the Sword Sect when Pojun was at his most high-spirited.

Relying on his identity as the designated successor of the Great Swordsman, he directly stole all the light from Pojun.

Then, with a single tree branch, he easily broke Pojun's fierce palm strike; the damage was not great, but the insult was extremely strong.

Finally, it was a killing move.

The beauty Pojun could not obtain turned around and married Wuming; this was simply killing the person and punishing the heart 0........

Although the crowd despised Pojun's behavior.

But thinking about it from his perspective, if they were Pojun, they would probably also be driven to a breakdown by Wuming.

Thinking this way, the crowd gazed even more intently at the Bai Yu Platform.

Clearly, the dispute between Pojun and Wuming had not ended.

And the crowd wanted to know even more how Pojun managed to toss the Sword Sect, which was at its zenith, into extermination.

……

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen lightly shook his folding fan, and without waiting for the crowd's discussion to end, he continued:

"During Pojun's wall-facing period, Wuming had already undergone the tempering of ten thousand swords and attained the Heavenly Sword Realm."

"At this time, he was already the number one expert of the Sword Sect's younger generation; according to the rules, he could cultivate the Sword Sect's supreme art, 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin'."

"But Jian Hui still did not want to give up 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin', so he proposed that Wuming and Pojun have a formal duel; whoever won would obtain 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin'."

"To ensure the fairness of this competition, Jian Hui sent out hero invitations far and wide, inviting famous experts from all over the Jianghu at that time to come to the Sword Sect's base to observe the ceremony."

"For example, the previously mentioned Dugu Yifang was invited to the Sword Sect to observe the ceremony, which was to witness this peak duel."

"The location of the competition was chosen in the ice cave in the deepest part of the Sword Sect."

"Pojun occupied all the advantages of weapons and terrain, and used these few years of wall-facing to cultivate the Sword Sect's unpassed supreme art, 'Ten Thousand Swords Facing the Emperor'."

"It could be said that at that time, heavenly timing, geographical advantage, and human harmony were all on Pojun's side."

"But any scheme or trick is pale in the face of absolute strength."

"Wuming's Heavenly Sword Realm far exceeded Pojun's imagination; even if Pojun used 'Ten Thousand Swords Facing the Emperor', he was still not Wuming's opponent."

"Just as the duel reached the final sword, Wuming thought of Chen Feng's death, and for the first time, killing intent arose in his heart, wanting to avenge Chen Feng."

"Jian Hui, loving his son, disregarded the rules and intervened, throwing out a jade pendant from Wuming's apprenticeship ceremony to block him."

"Wuming, considering the bond between master and apprentice, withdrew his move at the last moment, but the sword qi still pierced Pojun's face, leaving an indelible scar."

"To prevent the scandal from leaking, Jian Hui used the Sword Sect's supreme art, 'Return to Heaven Ice Technique', to freeze everything."

"Those Jianghu experts who came to observe the ceremony were caught off guard and were all frozen in the Sword Sect's ice cave."

"Only Wuming and Pojun, who were on the periphery of the ice cave, escaped 1.8 the ice cave at the critical moment and survived."

"After this battle, Pojun's nature changed drastically; all his hair fell out, and the hair that grew back was completely white."

"And just when Pojun was at his most disheartened, he met a peerlessly beautiful woman jumping off a cliff and was captivated at first sight."
