Chapter 225 March 3th
On the way to Shen Ce Mansion.
Normally, time would pass very slowly at this time, and Su Qiankun would communicate with the Great Compassion Tree King who was always holding his arm and Nashida in his arms through his heart...
However, at this time, March 7 seemed to have made up his mind. He came in front of Su Qiankun and half-knelt.
"Brother Su, please accept me as your disciple."
The Great Compassion Tree King quickly helped her up: "Xiao Sanyue, what are you doing? Get up quickly."
Sanyue looked at Su Qiankun with eyes full of admiration and sincerity: "To be honest, bows and arrows are not my best. I want to learn other weapons!"
"Brother Su is very good at this, and that's why he brought us here, so can you teach me?"
The couple looked at each other and asked, "Xiao Sanyue wants to learn other weapons?"
Yan Qing and Yun Li heard some explosive information, and their eyes subconsciously met.
Then they each said "Hmph" and looked away.
Su Qiankun did not refuse her request: "I promise you, what weapon do you want to learn?"
San Yueqi was overjoyed: "Brother Su, have you agreed to take me as your disciple? Master, please accept my disciple's greetings!"
"Master! Master! I want to learn swordplay! I know nothing about this, you have to teach me well, hehe~"
Facing Xiao Sanyue's attitude, Su Qiankun wiped his sweat and said, "But we don't have much time to practice now. We'll have plenty tomorrow, so we can start from the basics then..."
San Yueqi was filled with gratitude: "Thank you, Master!"
Yan Qing was really curious: "I don't know what swordsmanship Mr. Su used to defeat General Fei Xiao just now, but Yan Qing is sure that it was not Luo Fu's swordsmanship."
Yun Li said: "It's not Zhu Ming's swordsmanship either."
Su Qiankun smiled mysteriously: "If you are interested, you can take a look at how I teach Xiao Sanyue. Maybe you can learn something from it?"
Yunli and Yanqing were thoughtful after hearing this...

Arriving at Shen Ce Mansion...
See Huai Yan is there too.
Jing Yuan said: "Earlier at Sichen Palace, I had already introduced the guests of the Starry Sky Train to Elder Yan. But there were so many people at that time that we could only exchange some trivial greetings."
"We have driven out the chief culprit Huanlong, and uncovered the secret conspiracy of the Medicine King. If you want to know any details, Elder Yan, feel free to ask."
Huai Yan: "I have read the series of reports you submitted to the alliance regarding the whole process of Jianmu's rebirth. There are many doubts within the alliance about this matter... But I trust you."
"You have made remarkable achievements since you joined the army. After the Five Heroes of the Clouds disappeared, despite the many objections within the alliance, the Marshal still ignored them and entrusted Luofu to you."
"Over the years, you have devoted all your wisdom and loyalty to the Alliance. You defeated the evil creatures of Talassa, lifted the siege of the Jade Palace Immortal Boat, and destroyed the evil star summoned by the people of abundance... I still remember everything in the wars."
"Some termites doubt your loyalty and assume that you are stupid and foolish. They are happy to see General Shen Ce make mistakes because this is their nature. They have accomplished nothing themselves and only crave to see others fail as nourishment to survive."
"But I have witnessed too many failures. I prefer to believe that your loyalty has never changed."
Dan Heng asked: "So, the only person sent by the alliance to investigate the cause of the Jianmu disaster is General Feixiao of Yaoqing?"
Huai Yan: "How could that be? Of course there's me too."
March 7: "This old man's words are really...unexpected."
Huai Yan: "The Marshal issued an order for me to go to Luofu Xianzhou. But the official document only contained a few words: "Watch the ceremony and martial arts performance, and listen to Feixiao's questions." "
"For the Marshal, she is very clear about Jing Yuan's intention in holding the ceremony, and she also knows the situation he is facing. She mentioned this, obviously thinking that both are equally important."
Jing Yuan: "Old Master Yan is very kind-hearted, and I am deeply grateful to him. However, is it appropriate to speak out the order given by the Marshal in public?"
Huai Yan: "You introduced the witness on the train to me alone, just to find out the purpose of Fei Xiao and I, and whether there is any conflict between us. I am sincere to others, so young people should not hide anything.
"As for the Jianmu disaster, all I had to do from beginning to end was to listen in. The one who really wanted to raise questions was General Feixiao. What I am more concerned about is whether the martial arts ceremony can be held safely as scheduled."
Huai Yan: "Speaking of which, when I arrived in Luofu this time, I brought a gift for the martial arts ceremony. It is this box."
The box he carried had a dull sheen and was made of a material that was neither wood nor gold. The surface of the box was inlaid with metal threads with great skill, outlining a lotus pattern.
Then he said: "During the martial arts ceremony, there are countless large and small competitions and celebrations. The most important of them is the "defending competition."
"The host will send highly skilled warriors to defend the arena and respond to challenges from all sides, in order to demonstrate the martial virtues of the Immortal Boat."
"When I heard you mention that the Starry Sky Train would come to watch the ceremony, I thought the person defending the ring would be Luofu Longzun."
Jing Yuan: "Old Master Yan is joking. The Dragon Girl with Medicine in Her Mouth is still young and doesn't know anything about martial arts. How can we let her defend the arena?"
Huai Yan: "When it comes to joking, I'm still not as good as you."
San Yueqi asked: "What is this box used for? Why doesn't General Huai Yan open it?"
Then Huai Yan began to introduce the box in his hand: "This is the sword box I prepared for the prize of the martial arts ceremony. It is empty for now, but in a few days, a precious sword will arrive here and be stored in it."
"I am not bragging. This sword is the pinnacle of Zhu Ming Xian Zhou's craftsmanship. It has been wandering in a foreign land and created many heroic deeds. It is difficult to describe the strangeness of it in a few words."
"However, the delegation that brought the sword has not yet arrived, so I will put the sword box here first."
"I have been wondering... what kind of person is worthy of this sword? After thinking it over, I decided to give it away as a prize during this defense competition! The winner of the competition must be a hero, worthy of the sword."
"And I heard that Brother Yanqing is an excellent swordsman. He will defend the ring on behalf of Luofu. I think this gift is perfect."
Jing Yuan: "Master Yan has such a kind intention. Jing Yuan would like to thank you here."
Yun Li said, "Grandpa, if you want to give me the sword, just tell me directly. Why go through so much trouble?"
Huai Yan: "Girl, you are confident. But I don't think you can beat Yan Qing."
Yan Qing: "Ms. Yunli loves swords, and Yan Qing knows it. It's a pity that a sword will always choose a master that matches it."
Yun Li: "Even if some people get the sword, it will inevitably fall into the hands of others."
Yan Qing: "The outcome of today's battle at the Dan Ding Division has not yet been decided. Since Miss Yunli is interested, why don't you represent Zhu Ming Xian Zhou and fight on stage?"
Yun Li: "That's exactly what I meant! It's still uncertain who will be the winner! Maybe it's me, maybe it's someone else, maybe it's still me, but anyway... it may not be him!"
Huai Yan interrupted and said, "Be quiet in front of the guests! I gave you my sword to add luster to the ceremony, not to listen to you quarreling and hurting the friendship."
"Although both of you are confident that you will not lose to each other, in a ring, there is always a win and a loss, which is bound to hurt the relationship."
"I have an idea. Although the winner has not yet been announced, and may not be you two, if you want to get the prize, I want you to work together to train an apprentice, let him participate in the martial arts ceremony, and at least win one victory."
"In my humble opinion, it is gratifying for the Cloud Riders to achieve victory, but it is more valuable to pass down their skills and allow them to flourish and benefit others."
"If this person can represent the train in the martial arts ceremony and show off his skills with the Cloud Rider swordsmanship, I will be very pleased!"
After saying that, I looked towards March 7
Jing Yuan thought it made sense: "Master Yan's idea is really interesting. Only by teaching skills to apprentices can we show the spirit of cooperation. In this way, the winner will gain something, and the loser will not return empty-handed. But, who should they accept as their apprentice?"
As he said this, he also cast his gaze on March 7.
Sanyueqi quickly realized: "Huh? Who? Me? Me?"
Huai Yan: "Just now I saw that Miss Sanyue was quite interested in your sword fight. Why don't you teach her the basics of swordsmanship?"
March 7: "…Eh? Eh! The old general is not serious, right? Why did you suddenly involve me?"
Huai Yan said: "Miss Sanyue is still a rough diamond. I am also curious and would like to take advantage of the Luofu martial arts ceremony..."
San Yue Qi declined politely: "Thank you for your kindness, General Huai Yan. But I already have a master."
Huai Yan couldn't help but become curious: "Oh, who is your master?"
Dan Heng said: "To be honest, General Huai Yan, there is no one more suitable than Mr. Su to teach Miss Sanyue swordsmanship..."
"Tell me about it." Huai Yan became even more curious.
Jing Yuan didn't know when and where Su Qiankun learned the swordsmanship.
But thinking of the great battle with Huanlong that day, he became convinced again.
He said to Huai Yan: "Judging from Mr. Su's ability, it is indeed possible."
Huaiyan listened to what Yanqing and Yunli had said about their encounter with Feixiao just now.
"Okay, what do you think, Su Xiaoyou?"
Despite this, he still didn't want to give up this plan and wanted to ask Su Qiankun's opinion.
Su Qiankun suggested to Jing Yuan and Huai Yan: "Generals, if Yan Qing and Yun Li are interested in this, why not let them come and enjoy it together."
"After all, Sanyue is learning swordsmanship from scratch, so we can provide some guidance in this regard. This will not only save the two of us time to practice, but we can also gain some insights from it and improve our swordsmanship. How do you think?"
San Yue Qi was a little worried: "Master, if they accidentally leak the secret while teaching me, and we all know each other, wouldn't it be impossible to break their moves when we fight?"
Yun Li naturally had no objection: "San Yue Qi, you are a considerate person. Don't worry, if you don't practice hard for ten years, you won't be able to learn the secret technique."
Yan Qing quickly declined: "I don't deserve it. I haven't even started my apprenticeship yet, how can I be qualified..."
Yun Li folded his arms: "So you admit defeat? Well, since you don't even have the confidence to teach others, why don't I guard Luofu's ring for you?"
Jing Yuan also had no objection: "Yanqing, Mr. Su's suggestion is also for you to examine what you have learned and deepen your understanding of the skills. You have been a disciple for many years, it is time to change your perspective."
Yun Li's provocations were useless against Yan Qing.
But since the general said so, Yan Qing had no choice but to agree.
March 7: "I'll listen to Master. That's settled! Thank you General Huai Yan for your kindness."
"Hahaha, in that case, I also wish Yunli, Yanqing and Miss Sanyue to make progress together with Su Xiaoyou. I will take Yunli and go ahead..."
Huai Yan was also very satisfied with Su Qiankun's opinion, and then took Yun Li away from the Shen Ce Mansion.
