All My Disciples Bear The Mark of Greatness - Chapter 7: Is Honesty Not Believed in This World?

Chapter 7: Is Honesty Not Believed in This World?

As the old man announced the result, no one applauded. Instead, people’s faces were filled with shock. Li He, a top-ranked figure in the Martial Hall, had been defeated by an unknown Ye Qiubai. It was clear to everyone that Ye Qiubai had been very relaxed and hadn’t used his full strength.

President Qin Tiannan smiled and said, “It seems that Lu Changsheng’s judgment is still good.”

The Confucian Hall elder also nodded, saying, “This child’s talent is indeed exceptional.”

However, the Sword Hall elder gazed at Ye Qiubai with a strange expression, seemingly lost in thought.

At this moment, the old man stood beside Ye Qiubai and asked with a strange tone, “Ye Qiubai, your current contribution points are 200. Do you want to continue challenging? However, if you lose, your contribution points will be taken by the winner.”

Ye Qiubai showed no hesitation, as he came here to gain practical experience and break through his limits.

“Continue.”

The old man nodded and announced the next challenger’s name. “Array Hall, Qiu Ming.”

Qiu Ming looked at Ye Qiubai and said seriously, “Your strength is impressive, but I don’t know if you can break my array.”

After finishing, numerous array flags shot out from Qiu Ming’s fingers, surrounding the entire performance platform. A seven-colored mist formed, enveloping the platform.

Some spectators exclaimed,

“This is Qiu Ming’s Seven Illusions Array! Those trapped in the array will experience seven illusions, and if they can’t escape, they’ll be trapped for life!”

“Then isn’t Ye Qiubai in trouble?”

“Doesn’t everyone have seven emotions and six desires?”

The Array Hall elder watched the scene unfold and couldn’t help but laugh,

“Qiu Ming is my disciple, and his Seven Illusions Array was taught by me personally. This will be difficult for Ye Qiubai.”

The Sword Hall elder shook his head, “A sword cultivator won’t be easily trapped by illusions.”

“Then let’s wait and see.”

Meanwhile, Ye Qiubai was trapped in the Seven Illusions Array, and the first illusion was the scene where his family tested his talent.

“Next, Ye Qiubai!”

The illusion showed him surrounded by mocking faces, but Ye Qiubai walked forward calmly. The mocking words were like the most venomous insults in the world, attacking his heart. However, they couldn’t disturb Ye Qiubai’s state of mind. He placed a hand on the Heavenly Stone, and instantly, a brilliant light burst out, and sword aura filled the entire illusion! The first illusion was broken! The next five illusions were broken one by one until the sixth one.

When it came to the seventh illusion, a little girl stood in front of Ye Qiubai. The little girl was chasing after a little boy, calling out “Brother Qiubai!” The two of them played and cultivated together. The boy was known as the number one talent in Tianyuan City. The two of them, a talented boy and a beautiful girl, had a marriage agreement since they were young. Ye Qiubai watched the scene quietly, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

The scene shifted, and the girl grew up into a beautiful woman. However, the boy lost his talent during his training. The woman then came to the man’s family with a marriage contract, tore it up, and left. Later, she even sent someone to chase and kill him. The scene ended there. Ye Qiubai sighed,

“What’s past is past, gratitude and revenge should be repaid in kind.”

“Can’t stay stuck in the past, sword path, must move forward!” Ye Qiubai’s eyes were clear and bright, with a hint of enlightenment, and he slashed out with his sword. The seventh layer of the illusion was broken!

Outside, the crowd was still discussing whether Ye Qiubai could break the array. At that moment, Qiu Ming’s face changed. The Seven Illusions Array, the layer upon layer of colorful mist, began to dissipate!

“How is this possible!” Qiu Ming tried to reinforce his array, but the flags started collapsing!

Qiu Ming spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground! The array backfired! The audience was shocked. They all thought Ye Qiubai couldn’t break the array, but he not only broke it but also did it in just ten breaths!

Breaking Qiu Ming’s Seven Illusions Array in just ten breaths was an unprecedented concept!

The Sword Hall elder exclaimed, “Sword heart is connected!”

Qin Tiannan’s face was filled with astonishment, and the Array Hall elder’s face was filled with disbelief.

“At such a young age, he has already comprehended the sword heart connection.

His future prospects are boundless!”

The Sword Hall elder immediately appeared in front of Ye Qiubai and asked urgently, “Will you join my Sword Hall and become my disciple?”

Ye Qiubai was taken aback but politely declined, “I’m already a disciple of the Grass Hall, sorry, elder.”

The Sword Hall elder persisted, “You’re a sword cultivator, and our Sword Hall has countless sword techniques and foundations. If you join us, you may even be able to comprehend sword intent within a year… whereas in the Grass Hall…”

Ye Qiubai shook his head, “I already have a master.”

The Sword Hall elder sighed and said, “Very well, but the Sword Hall welcomes you to join us at any time.”

He then handed Ye Qiubai a sword-shaped jade token. “This is the Sword Hall’s token. If you have any questions about sword techniques in the future, you can come to me.”

“Thank you, elder.” Ye Qiubai bowed in gratitude.

After speaking, the Sword Hall elder disappeared on the spot.

After that, Ye Qiubai continued to win, defeating people from various halls. The name of the Grass Hall was once again renowned in the Academy, just like it was decades ago. The Grass Hall had finally taken in a disciple, and in a very domineering manner, announced its return.

Meanwhile, Qin Tiannan came to the Grass Hall and told Lu Changsheng about everything. Lu Changsheng’s face was strange, and he said,

“That kid is so fond of showing off, what if he wants to join the Grass Hall in the future? Won’t I be unable to hide?”

Qin Tiannan’s face darkened, and he said, “If you have the ability, why don’t you take in more disciples?”

Lu Changsheng spread his hands and said, “I can’t even understand my own cultivation, how can I teach others? That kid Ye Qiubai is just naturally talented.”

Qin Tiannan sighed, patted Lu Changsheng’s shoulder, and said, “I know you have this ability, you’re just lazy.” After speaking, Qin Tiannan left dir

ectly.

Lu Changsheng looked on innocently.

‘In this era, can’t people believe in honesty?’
