After hearing Yang Qi's words, Cao Xin couldn't help but fall silent. She had always felt that her Ice Sword was lacking something, and she hadn't discovered the reason before. Now, with Yang Qi's reminder, she vaguely realized that she was lacking something in the Ice Sword.
"Senior, I wonder how I can make up for this?" Cao Xin looked at Yang Qi and said.
"The easiest way is to fight!"
Yang Qi glanced at Cao Xin and continued, "Only by facing different opponents can we constantly learn from the experience of fighting with our opponents and thus constantly improve our own path."
Cao Xin had experienced many battles during his cultivation, but they were basically with practitioners within the family. As a family that practices the art of walking corpses, the Cao family has a relatively simple fighting method, which naturally has little effect on the training of Cao Xin. Only by leaving the Cao family and fighting with more practitioners can Cao Xin continue to improve his own way.
Of course, in addition to fighting, there are other ways, such as learning from the experience and insights of a large number of Ice Dao practitioners, and it is also possible to make up for one's own shortcomings. But by the same token, if the Cao family had a large number of Ice Dao experience and insights, Cao Xin would not appear in the situation of using stereotyped Ice Dao.
"Fight?" Cao Xin raised his eyebrows.
Yang Qi nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Yes, experience a real battle."
“Senior, don’t you know that it is very difficult for the descendants of the Cao family to leave Yuecheng and venture out before they reach the mid-level Martial King level?” A cultivator frowned.
Um
Yang Qi was stunned. He didn't expect that the Cao family had such a rule. However, it was not surprising after thinking about it carefully. As a cultivation family, the Cao family's talented practitioners could definitely not be compared with those of the sect. Relatively speaking, they also attached more importance to protecting the family's geniuses.
Although there are not many martial kings in Tianwu Continent, there are definitely tens of thousands of martial kings, and the Cao family has been standing in Yuecheng for a long time, so it is impossible for them to have no enemies. If the talented and powerful people in the family are not strong enough to go out and explore, it is simply to die. Therefore, the Cao family has set a rule that if the strength is not at a certain level, they cannot go out and explore at will.
"I am not a member of the Cao family, so I don't know this." Yang Qi shook his head slightly.
What
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of everyone present changed. When Yang Qi appeared in the martial arts arena, they instinctively regarded Yang Qi as a practitioner from the Cao family. However, they did not expect that Yang Qi was not a practitioner from the Cao family at all.
"I thought he was a senior in the family, but it turns out he is a guest of the clan." A cultivator raised his eyebrows.
If it was the guidance from a family elder, there would naturally be no problem. But if it was from an outsider, it would be hard to say. He might have ulterior motives and deliberately point Cao Xin on a detour!
"Brother Yang!"
Looking at the expressions of the crowd, Yang Qi sighed inwardly. Just as he was about to speak again, a familiar voice came from not far away.
Hearing this voice, everyone's eyes immediately looked over and immediately found Cao Min walking towards the arena. Cao Min was the family's deacon, so the practitioners present were naturally familiar with Cao Min and recognized him at a glance.
"It's Deacon Cao!" a cultivator said in a deep voice.
The cultivator in front of him, who was addressed as a peer by Deacon Cao, was at least a cultivator at the mid-level Martial Emperor. His strength might even be stronger than Cao Min. Such a cultivator would never be able to mislead a low-level Martial King!
The practitioners present looked at the newcomer and said respectfully, "Deacon Cao!"
"No need to be so polite."
Cao Min smiled slightly and came in front of Yang Qi.
"Brother Cao, why are you here?" Yang Qi had not received any message from Cao Min. Logically, Cao Min had no way of knowing where he was. It was somewhat beyond his expectation that he came to the martial arts field.
Hearing this, Cao Min couldn't help but smile calmly and said, "The meeting hall is over there. On the way back, I just happened to pass by the martial arts arena. I was planning to send you a message, but I didn't expect to run into you."
I see!
Yang Qi nodded. He was not familiar with the Cao family, so naturally he didn't know where the council hall was. He didn't expect that he would walk towards the council hall without realizing it.
"Brother Yang, why are you here?" Cao Min asked curiously.
Hearing this, Yang Qi couldn't help but say, "After you left, I felt a little bored, so I wandered around Cao's house. I happened to see them sparring in the ring, so I gave them some pointers."
"Oh~"
Cao Min's eyes lit up. He had been with Yang Qi for almost a year and knew him quite well. He naturally knew how terrifying Yang Qi's vision and knowledge were in cultivation. Even a high-level Martial Emperor might not be able to match Yang Qi. He started to give instructions, which was definitely a great opportunity for a cultivator at the Martial King level.
Cao Min took a look at the practitioner in front of him, then smiled and said, "Brother Yang is following the Way of the Sword. As far as I know, among the practitioners present, it seems that only Cao Xin follows the Way of the Sword. You should be the one who taught her, right?"
"It is indeed the seniors who are guiding the juniors." Cao Xin said hurriedly.
Hearing this, Cao Min couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Yang's insights on the way of the sword are probably not as good as those of a high-level martial emperor. If you can get a word of advice from him, I'm afraid it will be enough for you to benefit from for the rest of your life."
"Brother Cao, you are too kind. I just gave you a few random suggestions." Yang Qi shook his head slightly.
He was not the kind of practitioner who was aggressive, so he just gave a few casual pointers and naturally did not take it to heart. Moreover, he himself was not good at the way of ice, and his instructions to Cao Xin were just based on his insights from the fight with Xuan Bing and the way of the sword.
"Brother Yang is too modest." Cao Min chuckled and continued, "Is it okay to disturb you from instructing Cao Xin?"
"No, I've said what I need to say." Yang Qi shook his head slightly.
Cao Xin opened her mouth when she heard this, but in the end she didn't say anything. She was a little hesitant when she learned that Yang Qi was not a cultivator of the Cao family. Now that she knew Yang Qi's identity, she no longer had any doubts in her heart, but as a low-level martial king, how could she take the initiative to ask Yang Qi for guidance
Cao Min didn't think much about it when he heard it, and said directly, "That's great, I've already arranged it, let's leave first."
Yang Qi nodded, and then the two of them left the training ground.
Looking at Yang Qi and the other person leaving, Cao Xin felt as if she had missed something. Then her eyes focused, as if she had made a decision, and she quickly left the training ground.
The arrangement Cao Min mentioned was nothing but a banquet. Along the way, he also knew that Yang Qi liked fine wine, so he specially arranged some specialty wines from the Tianwu Continent.
Yang Qi had drunk a lot of spirit wines, and even had several spirit wines of the Emperor Wu level. However, when Yang Qi enjoyed the special spirit wines of Tianwu Continent, he was more thoughtful, after all, they were spirit wines from Emperor Haoyang's hometown. Even if they were spirit wines of the same level, he couldn't help but feel that the ones from Tianwu Continent were more delicious. Perhaps this was because he loved the house and loved the dog, or it was the influence of Emperor Haoyang's inherited memory. (To be continued)
