I am a mage and a wet nurse, so using seven swords is not too much, right?

Cangming Academy is an academy for sword cultivation that even outsiders dare not underestimate. In addition to having powerful sword cultivators, advanced sword cultivation techniques, and the natal swords left behind by the powerful sword cultivators after their deaths.

There is another treasure.

That is the sword embryo.

A powerful sword blank can be used to forge an even more powerful natal sword.

And Cangming Academy has many sword embryos.

The quality ranges from medium to top quality.

There are no inferior ones. Cangming Academy never accepts inferior sword embryos.

Among these countless sword blanks, there are a very small number of more precious sword blanks that have been left over from even more ancient times.

Once this kind of sword blank is successfully cast, it can give birth to a sword spirit that is in tune with the mind of its owner.

Those who have been able to take away this kind of sword embryo are all those with top talent and luck, and are born to be the destined ones to be sword cultivators.

There are many destiny sword cultivators in Cangming Academy, and it may take less than five hundred years for someone to take away this kind of sword embryo.

But even such a precious sword embryo is still not the best sword embryo in Cangming Academy.

The best sword blanks have been preserved from ancient times to the present.

Even when the human race was at its most prosperous, only nine sword cultivators had taken it.

Later, these nine sword cultivators all became the most powerful ones in the entire human race.

From ancient times to the present.

There were only ten sword blanks in total, and now only this one is left.

Almost the entire human race agrees that, now that the human race is in decline, this sword embryo will probably remain in Cangming Academy forever.

But now...

A swordsmanship instructor at the Royal Academy still had an expression of unwillingness to believe, "Are you talking about the ancient piece? Was it taken away?"

The instructor of Cangming College raised his eyes calmly, "Yes."

The Royal Academy swordsman instructor, who was breathing rapidly and obviously very excited, took a deep breath and asked, "What did you say his name was?"

"Ling Zuoyou." He said these three words very seriously.

Although even the people of the Eastern Qin Empire have never heard of this name.

But in the near future, this name is bound to frighten all ethnic groups.

General Han was equally excited.

While he was excited, he thought about more.

"He took away the sword embryo, which is a big deal for the human race. This matter is of great importance. You just said that everyone in the academy knows him?"

"How can we let everyone in the academy know about this? He hasn't really grown up yet. If outsiders knew about this, they would definitely not tolerate him."

"However, fortunately, this matter has not been leaked yet. After I report back to His Majesty, I will definitely cooperate with Cangming Academy to help conceal this matter."

He talked a lot.

His tone was excited, and his expression showed both relief and envy.

But the only response he got was the Cangming College instructor's frowning voice, "Why do you want to hide it?"

General Han: “!!!”

"He took the sword embryo away! If we don't hide it and give him a chance to grow, then... wouldn't that be a huge loss for our human race?"

He would be willing to protect such a genius even at the cost of his life!

The instructor of Cangming College frowned even more deeply, "Why should we, sword cultivators, hide?"

"The sword embryo's choice of master is an opportunity, but also a test of tempering." His voice was not loud, but it echoed clearly throughout the meeting room. "The ancient sword embryo has been silent for tens of millions of years. Since it has chosen Ling Zuoyou, it has recognized him. How could the master it chose be someone who needs to hide under the wings of others and live in disgrace?"

The sword master of the Royal Academy couldn't help but interrupt, "That's true! But that is... the last ancient sword embryo after all! Its owner is destined to be the backbone of our human swordsmanship in the future! Once the outsiders know about it, they will kill it at all costs. The risk is too great."

"Risk?" The corner of Cangming College instructor's mouth seemed to raise a very faint, almost sarcastic arc, which was not directed at the person, but at the cowardly idea.

"Is the reason why Cangming Academy has been able to stand to this day because of the hidden geniuses? It is because of the swords in the hands of sword cultivators like me, the sword energy that is born from the face of death!"

"A flower in a greenhouse cannot blossom with unrivaled sharpness; a sword under protection cannot chop off the enemy's head."

"I, Cangming, don't care how you train your disciples, but my Cangming's disciples are never afraid to draw their swords."

"..." In terms of the stubbornness of Cangming College, it must be the leader among the four major colleges.

Even if everyone wanted to refute, they really couldn't find any reason to refute.

There was even a feeling of being scolded.

Isn't this just pointing at their noses and saying that the disciples they taught are all greenhouse flowers, the exact opposite of Cangming's disciples?

……

No one outside knew about the debate in the meeting room.

As the rich fragrance spread, the disciples who came to participate in the competition could no longer sit still.

Those eyes seemed to be embedded in the iron pot and could not move at all.

The food in the iron pot was still cooking, but the barbecue that Pei Jingyu had grilled himself was already ready.

He handed it to Ning Ruan skillfully.

Ning Ruan started eating as usual.

After eating several skewers of barbecue in a row, she suddenly felt that the barbecue, which attracted everyone's attention, seemed a bit heavy.

After thinking for a while, she raised her eyes and asked, "If you have any ingredients that can be used for cooking, you can use them to exchange."

"..."

Ingredients for cooking?

They are clearly spiritual fruits and plants, as well as monster meat and spiritual liquid!

No wonder just a bowl of food benefited them so much.

How can this be an ordinary dish?

The dimpled young man sheepishly took out a bunch of spiritual fruits and said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, is this all I have to exchange? It's not very old, I can also use spiritual stones as collateral."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at the barbecue in Pei Jingyu's hand.

The sizzling hot oil and the smell of the spicy and delicious barbecued meat make your mouth water.

He actually doesn't care much about food and drink.

But the barbecue in front of me is an exception.

He saw with his own eyes how much spiritual liquid was sprinkled on the barbecue, and there were even many good seasonings that he had never seen before but were obviously rich in spiritual energy.

It goes without saying that after taking a bite, not only will your taste buds feel comfortable, but your body will also benefit greatly.

"Sure." Ning Ruan nodded.

He took the spiritual fruit with great interest.

She had eaten this kind of spiritual fruit before and it tasted very good.

The deal was done.

Seeing that the young man with dimples got food so easily, how could others resist?

They immediately scrambled to take out spiritual fruits in exchange.

Ying Bei even took out the monster meat directly.

I can’t tell what kind of monster it is, but the quality of the meat is very good.

Ning Ruan was attracted at first sight.

"Can I use this instead? I don't eat grilled meat, I want to eat it in the pot."

Ying Bei still had the marks of being beaten up, and his whole body exuded an awkward feeling.

Just for the sake of the monster meat, Ning Ruan was not prepared to argue with him.

What's more, he was the one who was beaten, and she didn't suffer any loss.

What's there to care about?

"No problem." Ning Ruan would not refuse something that was delivered to her door.

She was so happy that Ying Bei felt even more awkward.

"My monsters are no match for your food, but I still have some in my place. I'll give you some more when we get back."

The young man raised his head proudly and snorted, "Let's keep things separate. I won't take advantage of you."
