The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 1021: Chapter 1015: Firefly and Bright Moon

Am I interrupting?

The expressions of some people near the stands, especially the two who had just spoken, darkened.

Lin Tian’s casual words, full of disdain and contempt, left them extremely displeased.

However, Lin Tian didn’t even raise his head to acknowledge them, instead turning to Yun Qingwan and saying, “I’ll only say this once, and I hope you can remember it! You only have a quarter of an hour, and if you can’t do it, as my disciple, you’ll be deemed unqualified! Because what I’m about to tell you are things you should be able to fully understand and even master in a short amount of time!”

“Ah… Second Master, you’re telling me? But I’ve already memorized the Yellow Spirit Palm and understood it!”

Yun Qingwan blinked her pretty eyes, somewhat confused, with a face full of perplexity.

Ye Lan and the others also watched, bewildered.

“Putting on airs!”

“Could this guy be a Guiding Master hired by the Tianlan Sect? He doesn’t have the slightest True Qi fluctuation on him!”

“At his age, his cultivation can’t possibly far exceed ours! He might really be a Guiding Master because this time, Sword Saint Mountain is hoping to attract some Guiding Masters to instruct their juniors!”

“Each subject has its own specialist. Sometimes having a Guiding Master point out issues for younger disciples is even more suitable!”

“But could this guy be a fake? Or just an amateur?”

“You’ll see soon enough; his true colors will be revealed soon!”

…

The people around began to discuss, and various remarks gradually spread around, with many people’s gazes occasionally or intentionally falling on Lin Tian.

Guiding Master?

Many were surprised.

But most people were not optimistic, thinking that being a so-called Guiding Master isn’t just about giving a few pointers; it requires having one’s own set of cultivation path theories that even a Golden Core Cultivator might not establish.

“Guiding Master? Idiot! When the Martial Arts Conference ends, I’ll beat you until you kneel! Even the Tianlan Sect can’t protect you!”

The young man who earlier vowed to slap Lin Tian had a gloomy face and spoke in a cold voice.

Plenty of people nearby, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but shake their heads, and looked at Lin Tian with eyes full of sympathy.

This young man in front of him was Jia Fucheng, a disciple of Tianping Mountain in the East Continent Cultivation Realm.

In the territory of the East Continent, although Tianping Mountain isn’t considered a major sect, it’s ranked in the upper-mid level.

It lies in the hierarchy below sects like Tianyang Sect.

At least, compared to Tianlan Sect, it’s much, much stronger!

And Jia Fucheng was the most outstanding rising star of Tianping Mountain this year!

This time, Jia Fucheng was given the mission to compete for a spot in Sword Saint Mountain.

Every Martial Arts Conference brings forth a slew of talents, with extremely fierce competition!

Those who could squeeze into the top hundred must have strength far surpassing most of their peers.

However, to enter Sword Saint Mountain, one must at least rank in the top fifty.

One can imagine how difficult this is, with the slightest carelessness possibly leading to elimination by others.

Nevertheless, Jia Fucheng was full of confidence, at least feeling capable of squeezing into the top fifty!

Those in the top fifty of the East Continent Martial Arts Gathering are already considered top-notch geniuses, capable of looking down on many peers.

Thus Jia Fucheng didn’t regard the so-called Guiding Master Lin Tian at all.

But others who knew Lin Tian, like cultivators from Thousand Mountain Plain and Yelang Valley, became bewildered, “A Golden Core Supreme, and also a Guiding Master?”

How monstrous a talent does this require!

Their discussions and thoughts didn’t bother Lin Tian. He smiled and said patiently to Yun Qingwan, “Forget the Yellow Spirit Palm’s spell you just memorized, and now remember and understand the key points I’m going to tell you; ignore everything else!”

“Second Master, I got it! You say it!”

Yun Qingwan’s face became serious, nodding heavily in response.

Now, after a brief contemplation, Lin Tian slowly began to recite a seemingly simple spell to Yun Qingwan in a low voice.

“Pfft… Haha… Isn’t this just the Yellow Spirit Palm’s spell? After all this, it’s just this thing…”

Someone nearby couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Soon, others also joined in with booming laughter.

Those who had originally disdained Lin Tian now couldn’t be bothered to pay attention anymore.

Yun Qingwan was dumbfounded as well; what Lin Tian recited was indeed the Yellow Spirit Palm.

But she said nothing, earnestly memorizing Lin Tian’s recitation word for word.

And soon enough, she realized something was off.

What Lin Tian recited initially seemed identical to the Yellow Spirit Palm, but when combined with the latter parts of the spell, Yun Qingwan discovered it seemed like an entirely new combat technique.

It looked similar, yet completely different. The more she understood it, the more mysterious it seemed.

And compared to the Yellow Spirit Palm, this new Yellow Spirit Palm appeared much more powerful, and not only did it not increase the difficulty of cultivation, but it was also easier to understand and master than before.

Yun Qingwan realized this combat technique seemed tailor-made for her.

“Oh my god, what did Second Master just do?”

Yun Qingwan exclaimed in astonishment internally, but she didn’t have time to think further and instead closed her eyes, slowly comprehending the new Yellow Spirit Palm Lin Tian had just taught.

Before the comprehension test, disciples weren’t allowed to demonstrate the Yellow Spirit Palm; it required improvisation to attack the Eastern Emperor Pillar.

This further tested a person’s comprehension.

Soon, a quarter of an hour passed.

Yun Qingwan opened her eyes, her beautiful gaze shining brightly.

“Master, I… I now feel like this Yellow Spirit Palm is something I was born to know. I feel that now, when I perform it, it’s many times stronger than before!”

Taking a gentle, deep breath, Yun Qingwan looked up at Lin Tian, her face showing shock, amazement, and puzzlement but also a strong sense of confidence.

“Very good!”

Lin Tian’s eyes lit up with satisfaction at Yun Qingwan’s performance. He looked around at the ring, where many young juniors were still immersed in comprehending the Yellow Spirit Palm. He promptly turned back and said, “While there’s still time, I’ll teach you two combat techniques, one offensive and one defensive. When you enter the ring for real combat, just coordinate with the new Yellow Spirit Palm I taught you!”

With that, Lin Tian proceeded to teach Yun Qingwan a defensive battle technique and an offensive battle technique.

Yun Qingwan’s beautiful eyes gleamed as she memorized them silently and practiced on the spot.

As time passed, it was time for the test.

The test was still conducted according to the previous badge numbers, with numbers 1 to 250 at the first Eastern Emperor Pillar, followed by subsequent numbers accordingly.

Coincidentally, Yun Qingwan’s badge number was 249, right at the first Eastern Emperor Pillar, at the end of the line.

The badge numbers were shuffled and not assigned in the order they were received.

At this moment, people began to get up one after another and queue up according to their badge numbers.

“Go on!”

Lin Tian patted Yun Qingwan’s shoulder and nodded encouragingly with a smile.

“Qingwan, just do as your Second Master instructed! Do your best!”

Ye Lan also encouraged her.

Yun Qinghe and others chimed in to cheer her on.

“Master, I understand!”

Yun Qingwan pursed her lips, stood up, and walked toward the queue behind the first Eastern Emperor Pillar.

But as soon as she stood in line, the three people in front of her suddenly turned their heads.

Recognizing the three, Yun Qingwan’s face slightly changed.

They were Gao Chengpeng and Jia Fucheng, who had previously conflicted with Lin Tian, and the third was Sikong Ping from the River God Sect, already among the top ten rising star talents!

“You actually participated?”

Gao Chengpeng frowned, then coldly said, “If you embarrass us, I won’t be interested in having you as a woman by then!”

“Haha… Brother Gao, with strength, who fears not having a woman? Such a woman is better left!”

Beside him, Jia Fucheng sneered, then looked at Sikong Ping with a fawning smile and said, “Brother Sikong, having this girl behind us is really unpleasant!”

“Exactly, Brother Sikong. Jia Fucheng is right; having this woman behind our numbered positions is indeed unpleasant!”

At this moment, a young girl wearing a moon-white dress standing next to Sikong Ping sneered at Yun Qingwan, mocking, “But then, such trash here only serves to highlight Brother Sikong’s extraordinary might! If this trash girl is a fire worm, then Brother Sikong, you are the vast bright moon in the sky!”
