My Martial Arts Can Train Themselves

Chapter 35: Spirit Item

A sword suddenly appeared beside Yang Yi.

This sword was simple and grand, and it had a lot of weight. One look and he could tell that it was quite extraordinary.

Although Yang Yi did not know how to use a sword, he was attracted by its complicated appearance at first glance.

He came to the bed and unsheathed the sword.

Swish!

The blade was greenish black. It even had a little bit of rust.

Yang Yi swung it about, but it did not seem sharp at all. Instead, it felt like he was swinging a club.

"Uh... It's only good-looking on the surface!"

Yang Yi instantly understood that this was a trap set up by the stall's owner.

It made sense when he thought about it. If it was truly a treasure sword, why would it be placed on the stall?

He toyed with it for a while, and then he completely lost interest in this good-looking but useless Black Iron Sword.

He returned to his bed and focused on the second feedback message.

[The Mo Family has recently provoked unclean things, and strange incidents kept occurring. As long as it goes dark inside the manor, it would always feel as though somebody is squatting with their backs turned in the dark shadowy corners.]

Yang Yi could not help but frown when he saw this feedback message.

Such strange events were not groundless.

According to the memories of his host, he had similar recollections when he stayed in Baisha City.

"Does this have something to do with devil thoughts?" Yang Yi guessed in his heart.

If that was really the case, it would not be an easy thing to solve this strange happening.

Yang Yi shook his head and did not trouble himself further with this.

The night passed by peacefully.

The next morning, Yang Yi took the Black Iron Sword and followed everyone to the outskirts of Panshan Town.

"Demonic beasts are divided into the Blood Refining and Bone Refining stages. The Blood Refining demonic beasts' scores range from one to five, while the Bone Refining demonic beasts' scores range from six to 10. After killing Bone Refining demonic beasts, one can return to killing Blood Refining beasts, and repeat the cycle. Of course, you can also challenge a participant." Feng He repeated the rules to everyone as they journeyed toward the destination.

"Remember, each participant only has one chance to challenge and be challenged." When he was almost done speaking, the group arrived at the foot of a flat mountain.

A platform had been set up here, and there were many members of the Rope Fire Gang standing guard nearby.

In a certain part of the mountain forest, one could occasionally hear the continuous whistling sounds and the pungent smell of wild beasts.

"I heard that there are 20 Bone Refining demonic beasts prepared this time. We can go all out." Luo Ran grinned and bumped his fists that were bigger than the others'.

Feng He brought them to the side of the stage and sat down.

Then, a middle-aged man wearing leather armor walked onto the stage and cupped his fists.

"This demon slaying party will be guarded by the deputy of the Rope Fire Gang, Mo Wuxie. Everyone can rest assured."

Yang Yi noticed that on the other side of the stage, a man who looked like a demon was sitting with his eyes closed, as if he did not care about the movements of the outside world.

"Your deputy gang leader is really young," Jiang Hong whispered to Li He beside her.

"Although deputy Mo is young, he is already at the Cauldron Assembling stage." Li He's eyes were filled with fanaticism.

"Alright. Next, let's talk about the reward for the person with the highest points in the demon slaying party this time." The middle-aged man's voice drew everyone's attention back from Mo Wuxie.

He kept them guessing for a while and said with a chuckle, "This time, besides the usual rewards of demonic beast meat and demonic cores, there is another item that I believe all of you will like."

A gang member carried a golden feather on a wooden plate and stepped forward.

Although he was observing from afar, Yang Yi could sense a different aura from this feather.

"It's a Golden Phoenix Feather!"

The others were in a commotion.

"Senior Brother Tian, what is this Golden Phoenix Feather?" Yang Yi asked Tian Zhen.

"Junior Brother Yang, you may not know this, but it is considered a spirit item. It's a rare item found on demonic beasts like pheasants. It is the core material for forging mystic weapons such as the Golden Phoenix Bell and the Phoenix Sound Spear."

Tian Zhen's eyes were fixated on the Golden Phoenix feather as he explained. It was obvious that he was also extremely eager to have it.

He did not expect that the major gangs would offer a spirit item as a reward for the demon slaying party.

Yang Yi had heard of mystic weapons before.

The Qixia sect had the Mystic Weapon Pavilion.

However, it was only accessible to inner disciples.

If he remembered correctly, only those who mastered the force could control mystic weapons.

Therefore, he did not bother to learn about them before this.

Since the Golden Phoenix Feather was a core material for forging mystic weapons, its value was self-evident. It was no wonder that everyone's expressions were so exaggerated.

Except for Jiang Hong, those who participated in the demon slaying party were all at the Bone Refining stage. If they could win the Golden Phoenix Feather, they could use mystic weapons directly after breaking through to the Spiral Force realm. This would greatly increase their combat strength!

"Hehe, I want to win this time. None of you should compete with me." Luo Ran's words had a threatening tone.

No one refuted him. However, they were all plotting in their hearts.

It was rare to encounter a spirit item, so no one wanted to give up so easily.

Yang Yi was the only exception. He was of the opinion that he could purchase these items as long as he had the money. It was just a matter of how much would he need to spend.

Therefore, he was not particularly envious.

The middle-aged man on the stage then repeated the principles of "practicing restraint", "keeping the peace", and so on.

The competition officially began.

A Blood Refining ice blue toad was loaded into a cage and pulled onto the stage.

On the cage hung a wooden sign that said 'three'.

This meant that defeating this ice blue toad would earn the person three points.

The first person on the stage was Li He.

Li He had prominent brows and his gaze was deep. He held a shining long saber in his hand, and his aura was extraordinary.

This battle only lasted for the time it took to brew a pot of tea. He won.

The entire process could be said to be a one-sided suppression.

After that, he chose to continue challenging Bone Refining demonic beasts.

A Bone Refining fire-biting tiger was pulled up.

Li He was much more serious than before.

He quickly displayed the Rope Fire Saber Technique and attacked first.

The fire-biting tiger was very fierce. After being locked in the cage for so long, it lunged at Li He as soon as it was released.

It seemed that it wanted to vent its pent up frustrations from all the abuse it had suffered in the cage on Li He.

The two of them fought for more than ten rounds, but they were still inseparable.

The fire-biting tiger's sharp claws and fangs caused quite a bit of trouble for Li He, and fierce signs kept appearing.

In the end, Li He used the domineering Rope Fire Saber Technique to successfully counter-attack the fire-biting tiger.

After that, the scene erupted with cheers.

Li He was a member of the Rope Fire Gang. His performance was divine and brave, so the members of the Rope Fire Gang naturally gave him face.

"I won't continue."

Li He looked at the fire-biting tiger lying in a pool of blood. He was bewildered and did not choose to continue.

Yang Yi could tell that he should still have some strength left. However, he did not choose to be reckless because he had considered possible future developments.

He had killed two demonic beasts in this round, so he had obtained nine points.

"It's my turn."

Tian Zhen had a troubled expression on his face.

After the blood stains on the stage were cleaned up, he slowly went up to the stage.

"You can do this, Senior Brother Tian!" Yang Yi cheered.

Tian Zhen was not good at close combat, and his character was weak. His battle results would probably not be too good.

However, as long as he could gain experience from fighting, this trip would not be in vain.

"Hey, the Qixia sect disciple is up on the stage. Everyone, quickly take a look. It's rare to see such a good show." Luo Ran waved around, completely unconcerned about offending others.

To put it bluntly, Yang Yi and Tian Zhen were only outer disciples and were not considered the core members of the sect.

If they were wearing purple clothes, even Mo Wuxie, who was resting with his eyes closed, would have to show some respect, let alone Luo Ran.

Yang Yi ignored the noisy Luo ran.

His gaze landed on the stage.

A Blood Refining demonic beast had just been pulled onto the stage.

Tian Zhen struck out with lightning speed. His palm struck the demonic beast's head, and the beast's head immediately exploded.

The outcome was decided in an instant. This was even quicker than Li He's round.

It was bloody, overbearing, and unreasonable.

The scene was completely silent.

None of them expected Tian Zhen to possess such explosive power.

"..."

What happened to not being good at close combat?

Yang Yi almost believed Tian Zhen's nonsense.
