Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return-Chapter 1077: The Girls’ Admiring Screams

This is exactly his best chance to make a name for himself and prove his worth. As long as he defeats Yue Fanchen and restores the reputation of Anyun Country, he will become the hero of Anyun, a figure admired by all of the younger generation.

"Young Master Mu, teach them a good lesson and let them know the strength of our Anyun Country."

"Beat them so hard their own parents won’t recognize them, and see if they dare to act arrogantly in our Anyun Country again!" Cheers erupted from all around.

Though Gong Hongru and Wenren Qingqiu’s previous fierce battle shocked everyone and made them look up to Mu Hanyan, it was Mu Chengxuan’s performance during the assessment that left a deeper impression on them.

The ten moves of swordsmanship derived from the Heart Enlightenment Sword were exquisite, and the last sword strike left a half-foot-deep sword mark on the Trial Stele, far surpassing those like Qi Kaiyuan, Cheng Zhicheng, Guan Shanhe who passed the assessment afterward.

If nothing unexpected happens, Mu Chengxuan is undoubtedly the top candidate for the enrollment selection at Long Yan Academy.

As for Mu Han Yan, honestly, even the mentors at Long Yan Academy didn’t understand why Gong Hongru and Wenren Qingqiu valued him so much, and others were even more puzzled, automatically ignoring him.

Perhaps Mu Han Yan truly has exceptional qualities, but in terms of cultivation strength? From the previous performance, it appears Mu Chengxuan is still better.

Whether he can defeat Yue Fanchen, whether he can uphold Anyun Country’s dignity, depends solely on him.

"Indeed, Chengxuan stepping forward at this time doesn’t disappoint the old man’s painstaking efforts." Looking at Mu Chengxuan’s upright figure, the Supreme Elder spoke with both relief and pride.

"Chengxuan having such dedication is truly a blessing for the Mu Family." The Third Elder also showed a proud expression.

Finally, they’ve managed to steal the limelight from Mu Han Yan, and both elders were in a very good mood.

"What is your name?" Yue Fanchen glanced at Mu Chengxuan and asked calmly.

"Mu Chengxuan of the Mu Family in the Capital." Mu Chengxuan replied proudly.

He indeed has a reason to be proud. In terms of status, he is the eldest grandson of the Third Elder of the Mu Family, the only direct disciple of the Supreme Elder; in terms of strength, he reached the Fourth Rank Sword Master at eighteen; and in terms of talent, he passed the Heart Enlightenment Sword test and was taken under the wing of Long Congyuan. Isn’t this enough to prove his talent?

Seeing Mu Chengxuan’s arrogance, emanating from his very bones, yet coupled with his calm and stern demeanor, the surrounding crowd of young girls erupted in fiery screams.

Even Long Congyuan and the mentors nodded discreetly. Not to mention anything else, just his bearing alone surpassed many of his peers.

Although he didn’t see Yue Fanchen make a move, just from observing the guard’s skills, it’s clear he must be equally skilled. In any family, the best cultivation resources and techniques are always first provided to their descendants, then to the guards, and rarely there are cases where a guard’s capabilities exceed those of their master.

The Dragon Tooth Sword effortlessly defeated Zheng Zhi, leaving him unable to counter, yet the true strength of Yue Fanchen remains uncertain even to Long Congyuan and others.

The only thing that is certain is that if there’s anyone among the young swordsmen who passed the assessment today capable of contending with him and preserving Anyun’s reputation, it would be none other than Mu Chengxuan.

Therefore, as they gaze upon Mu Chengxuan, Long Congyuan and others were filled with anticipation.

"Draw your sword, today I will let you know what it means that there’s always someone better out there, and also, I’ll show you the majesty of Anyun Country that none shall offend." Amid the cheers of thousands of citizens, the screams of young dreaming girls, and the expectant eyes of Long Congyuan and others, Mu Chengxuan’s mood surged, a wave of unprecedented heroism rising within him, as if he was lifted above the ground entirely, he grasped his sword hilt and spoke loudly.

His voice reverberated across the venue, and the cheers, applause, and screams around intensified.

This person indeed makes a striking appearance. Even Mu Han Yan had to admit that Mu Chengxuan’s passionate speech was indeed invigorating, paired with his upright stance and the demeanor cultivated from a young age due to his noble family background, it was quite impressive.

"Stand down, you are not qualified to engage with me." Amid the heaven-shaking cheers, Yue Fanchen’s aloof and arrogant voice rang out. Though not loud, it silences all applause and cheers as if it resonated directly in their hearts.

The vast square plunged into a brief state of silence. Not qualified. He actually dared to say Mu Chengxuan is not qualified to engage him. If it was Zheng Zhi earlier, that would’ve been understandable, as Zheng Zhi’s talents and strength were only middling.

But now, standing before him is Mu Chengxuan. Excluding Mu Han Yan, whose enigmatic nature remains a mystery to all, Mu Chengxuan is undoubtedly the leading candidate of today’s enrollment selection, if not the unparalleled figure of this enrollment selection. Is this still not sufficient qualification to engage him?

This Zhao Fanchen truly lacks restraint in his arrogance.

"What did you say?" Mu Chengxuan was on cloud nine, only to be pulled back to earth by Yue Fanchen’s words, making his face flush with anger.

If he truly wasn’t Yue Fanchen’s match, losing wouldn’t make him this furious. But Yue Fanchen claiming he isn’t qualified to engage was simply a blatant humiliation.

"I said, your strength is too weak, your talent also quite mediocre, and you’re not qualified to engage with me." Yue Fanchen replied calmly.

"Looks like today I must teach you a lesson, you truly hold the cultivators of Anyun Country in no regard." Mu Chengxuan was enraged, not bothering with further words, and he simply slashed at Yue Fanchen with his sword.

In his fury, Mu Chengxuan unleashed his slash without reservation, pushing the Fourth Rank Sword Master’s strength to its utmost.

In an instant, the icy sword light came slashing with a sky-breaking momentum, where it passed, the air was torn apart, creating a transparent air tunnel.

What formidable power! Seeing the majesty of Mu Chengxuan’s slash, many showed expressions of shock. Even Qi Kaiyuan and Guan Shanhe, among the winners of the enrolment selection, had complexions that grew exceptionally grave. If Mu Chengxuan’s opponent had been one among them, in a head-to-head clash, it would’ve been extremely challenging for them to withstand Mu Chengxuan’s slash.

Almost everyone’s gaze turned to Yue Fanchen, perhaps indeed his strength was formidable, and perhaps Mu Chengxuan wasn’t truly his match, yet upon witnessing this slash, one would think Yue Fanchen wouldn’t still believe Mu Chengxuan was unqualified to engage him, right?

What surprised them was, as Mu Chengxuan unleashed this formidable slash, Yue Fanchen didn’t so much as blink an eye, rather the corner of his mouth revealed a scornful smile.

"Swish," The shadow of Dragon Tooth appeared once more before Yue Fanchen, the giant sword unfolded, slashing towards the incoming Mu Chengxuan.

This slash, as always, remained so simple and direct, so wild and bold, it felt lacking in skill, a sheer clash of power.
