Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 211: Heavenly Dao Tower Quotas
「Heavenly Dao Academy」
Chu Yue had been having a very frustrating few months. The news of her expulsion from the Cyan Dragon Manor had spread, shocking the entire Great Xia Country. Although the various families and sects didn’t dare discuss it openly, it became the main topic of their private conversations. Chu Yue had truly become their laughingstock.
In a frantic rage, Chu Yue smashed everything inside her palace, terrifying her servants and maids, who knelt on the ground, trembling in fear. The Star Pavilion Master came to comfort her after learning of the situation.
"Master, the Cyan Dragon Manor has gone too far! You must avenge me!" Chu Yue pleaded.
The Star Pavilion Master sighed. He didn’t dare make a move against the Cyan Dragon Manor. However, he said, "I will find that so-called honored guest, and I will show them no mercy."
Chu Yue nodded heavily.
「Meanwhile」
Tian Xing wasn’t having an easy time either. He felt like he was hallucinating and could no longer tell if seeing Lin Xuan at the Cyan Dragon Manor was real or just an illusion. The matter was driving him to the point of collapse.
Just then, news spread that four Grandmasters were taking up positions in the Heavenly Dao Building, sending countless people into a frenzy. Tian Xing stopped thinking about Lin Xuan; he had to secure a spot to enter the Heavenly Dao Building. However, his current status and strength were insufficient. He had to curry favor with Chu Yue.
Chu Yue, of course, didn’t need to worry about getting a spot. With her status, she was guaranteed to secure one. However, many people were now fawning over her, hoping to get that spot from her. She would have to choose carefully who to give it to.
「Cyan Dragon Manor」
The doors to the Cyan Dragon Hall opened, and Lin Xuan walked out. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Manor Master Li had been waiting all this time. Upon seeing Lin Xuan emerge, he hurried over with a concerned expression. "How is the Young Master?"
Lin Xuan smiled. "Not bad. My strength has increased greatly."
"That’s good, that’s good," Manor Master Li laughed excitedly. "Young Master, you’ve been cultivating for four months; you must be exhausted. I’ll arrange a place for you to rest immediately."
However, Lin Xuan shook his head. "No need. I want to return to the Heavenly Dao Academy."
"Why the hurry?" Manor Master Li didn’t understand. Isn’t resting here the same as resting anywhere else?
Lin Xuan explained, "There is only a month left before the Hidden Dragon Chart begins, and I want to participate in it."
What? Participate in the Hidden Dragon Chart? Hearing this, Manor Master Li was stunned. Although Lin Xuan’s lineage was noble, being a descendant of the Great Emperor, he was too young—only sixteen years old and merely a Five-star Martial General. With this cultivation level, he couldn’t possibly participate in the Hidden Dragon Chart.
He was genuinely concerned for Lin Xuan’s well-being. "Young Master, to participate in the Hidden Dragon Chart, one needs the cultivation of at least a Nine-star Martial General," he advised. "You are still too young; there’s no need to participate now. It won’t be too late to join in a few years when you’ve grown stronger."
Lin Xuan laughed. "Manor Master Li, don’t worry. I’m confident. My current strength is far greater than a Nine-star Martial General’s. I can instantly kill one."
What? The Manor Master was even more stunned. He thought Lin Xuan must be boasting, but given Lin Xuan’s status, he couldn’t just call him out on it. He could only continue trying to persuade him, but Lin Xuan just shook his head, seemingly determined to participate in the Hidden Dragon Chart.
Manor Master Li sighed and finally said, "If you must participate, Young Master, perhaps you could stay a while longer. I want to teach you an Ultimate Skill called the Azure Sky Dragon Claw Hand. With this Ultimate Skill, you might have a fighting chance in the Battle of the Hidden Dragon."
Lin Xuan was surprised. Azure Sky Dragon Claw Hand? What’s that? He asked the big black dog, but the dog wasn’t sure either, having never heard the name.
Manor Master Li said, "You may not have heard of the Azure Sky Dragon Claw Hand, but you should have heard of another name: the Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand."
Lin Xuan nodded. "I know of the Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand. It’s a Supreme Ultimate Skill. But what is this Azure Sky Dragon Claw Hand?"
Manor Master Li gave a bitter smile, "The Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand is our Cyan Dragon Manor’s Supreme Ultimate Skill, but it’s far too difficult. In the past 500 years, not a single person in our Cyan Dragon Manor has been able to master it. This is also why our strength has declined so significantly; we have failed to inherit the Ultimate Skill passed down by our ancestors.
"However, over the past few hundred years, we have made some changes. Because the Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand was too difficult, we simplified it to create the Azure Sky Dragon Claw Hand. Although its power is much weaker than the true version, it is also much easier to learn. Currently, the Azure Sky Dragon Claw Hand is the primary skill passed down in the Cyan Dragon Manor."
So that’s how it is. It’s just a simplified version of the Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand. Lin Xuan immediately lost interest.
The big black dog also chimed in, "Don’t learn that. If you’re going to learn something, learn the true Supreme Ultimate Skill."
Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Manor Master Li, I appreciate your kindness, but I don’t need it. I discovered the true Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand in the Cyan Dragon Hall and have already begun practicing it. I can now perform the first move and believe it won’t be long before I truly begin to grasp it. So, I don’t need to practice the simplified version."
"What? You can perform the Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand?" Manor Master Li was shocked yet again. He could hardly believe it. The Cyan Dragon Heaven-Rending Hand was incredibly difficult. In 500 years, the Cyan Dragon Manor had produced many peerless talents, yet none had managed to master it. Let alone master it, they couldn’t even perform a single move. This fact alone showed how difficult the skill was. It seems impossible for even Lin Xuan, a descendant of the Great Emperor, to perform it.
Lin Xuan, however, was very confident. He had already grasped the basics and believed he would soon master the entry-level techniques. It couldn’t be helped; his innate talent was simply too strong. He practiced the Extreme Dao Ten Thousand Dragon Diagram, and his command over Dragon Dao Power far exceeded that of others. Therefore, Lin Xuan could accomplish what generations of Cyan Dragon Manor ancestors could not.
Manor Master Li was dazed for a moment before finally sighing. He asked, "Young Master, since you’re participating in the Hidden Dragon Chart, is there anything we can do to help? We will definitely support you with all our efforts."
Although Manor Master Li thought Lin Xuan was boasting, he would still support him unconditionally since he was the Young Master.
Lin Xuan thought for a moment and said, "There’s no need for now. When I need your help, I will use the Cyan Dragon Ring to contact you."
"Understood," Manor Master Li nodded.
Then, he personally saw Lin Xuan off. After Lin Xuan left, Manor Master Li found the Grand Steward. "You must always be ready to support the Young Master," he ordered. "No matter what the Young Master needs, it must be delivered to him immediately."
"As you command," the Grand Steward replied respectfully.
Thus, Lin Xuan returned to the Heavenly Dao Academy. Upon his return, he was startled by what he saw. The Heavenly Dao Academy was buzzing with excitement. Every disciple seemed to be fueled by adrenaline.
Lin Xuan’s return naturally attracted considerable attention.
"Lin Xuan is back!"
Cries of surprise echoed through the academy.
Disciples of the Star Pavilion saw Lin Xuan and immediately turned to inform Chu Yue.
"Senior Sister Chu, that Lin Xuan has returned."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yue’s eyes filled with killing intent. "What? That guy has finally come back? I must personally teach him a lesson!"
