High Martial Arts: First day of dropping out of school, reward: Devouring the Emperor's Body

"You want to learn swordsmanship?"

Wu Yuqing let out a soft "hmm".

The path of swordsmanship requires more talent. She told Li Mo that the spear and throwing knife he was currently using were extremely powerful weapons. In addition, he possessed both fire and lightning talents, making him a supreme expert.

As the saying goes, "Don't bite off more than you can chew." Throughout history, all those who have mastered swordsmanship have focused solely on swordsmanship; very few who have tried to learn a variety of skills have succeeded.

However, even so, whether they would survive to the next stage was still a question, so Wu Yuqing thought for a moment and then threw the Peerless Sword in her hand to Li Mo.

"Try swinging your sword casually, and I'll be able to tell if you have any talent in swordsmanship."

Legend has it that Wu Bai's peerless sword was forged from the strongest meteorite iron ore ever discovered in the world, making it a rare and divine weapon among sword-type weapons.

As soon as Li Mo got his hands on the Peerless Sword, he felt the immense power emanating from it.

Even within Li Mo's inner vision, numerous invisible sword energies appeared, attempting to disrupt his divine sense.

This is because the Peerless Sword has the characteristic of recognizing its master. Now that it is in Li Mo's hands, it will naturally trigger the Peerless Sword's counterattack.

Li Mo's hands trembled slightly; he even felt that he could barely hold onto the peerless sword.

But this was exactly what Wu Yuqing had expected. If Li Mo couldn't even get past this hurdle, there was no way he could achieve anything great in swordsmanship in the future.

The fact that he can't even hold the Peerless Sword proves that he has no chance of mastering swordsmanship.

However, the next second, Li Mo's eyes hardened. His Devouring Emperor Body came into play at this moment. Even the divine sword of Sword God Wu Bai could not withstand the domineering Devouring Emperor Body.

Almost instantly, Li Mo gripped the Peerless Sword again.

Seeing this, Wu Yuqing nodded approvingly: "Not bad! With your mastery of the Peerless Sword, you can become a first-class swordsman in the world in the future."

At this point, Wu Yuqing changed the subject: "But, it's only first-rate!"

There are countless swordsmen in the world, but only a very few can be called first-rate. However, there are quite a few, but above first-rate swordsmen, there are also top-tier swordsmen.

The difference between these two is the difference in talent!

A first-rate swordsman who can cultivate to the Heaven and Earth Realm is considered to have achieved great success, and such individuals are extremely rare.

However, the ultimate swordsman's goal is the God of War!

In the past three hundred years of the new calendar, there have only been three people, including Wu Bai, who have been able to cultivate to the Martial God Realm through swordsmanship!

Li Mo nodded slightly. He was only trying it out briefly because he had been observing Wu Yuqing using the sword many times before and was itching to try it himself.

If he doesn't have this kind of talent, then it doesn't matter if he gives up.

Immediately afterwards, Li Mo closed his eyes, concentrated, and slowly swung his sword forward.

To Zheng Jiahao and the others, this sword strike was ordinary and seemed to have nothing special about it.

But in the eyes of a true swordsman, it is a completely different scene.

Wu Yuqing could feel the sword intent emanating from Li Mo's every move, and even her own peerless sword was cooperating with Li Mo's actions.

Wu Yuqing was somewhat shocked because her achievements during the sword trial were similar to Li Mo's.

At this moment, Wu Yuqing said something her elders had told her: "The swordsman is fearless, the sword intent is unbreakable, and the sword energy is invincible!"

"Li Mo, so you're a born swordsman too!"

"Is that so?"

Li Mo was somewhat suspicious. He hadn't felt anything when he swung his sword just now, but Wu Yuqing was quite shocked.

Wu Yuqing discovered that Li Mo's swordsmanship talent was almost identical to hers.

Wu Yuqing is known as the future Sword Emperor. She was born with a sword body and raised her mental cultivation to the Heavenly Sword Realm at the age of thirteen. In the following two years, she learned all the sword techniques of the Sword God Wu Bai and even created the Nine Absolute Flying Sword, which made her famous throughout the land.

But she is the granddaughter of the Sword God Wu Bai, which is not surprising.

Wu Bai's genes are very strong. Most of his descendants can reach the Heaven and Earth Realm by cultivating the sword path alone. Wu Yuqing is just the most outstanding one among them.

But who is Li Mo?

He came from a slum, had no proper education, and his genes weren't particularly strong.

Even though Li Mo's background has now been exposed, his parents did not become Martial Gods after all.

This is why Wu Yuqing was so surprised.

Just then, Li Mo heard a system notification.

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully activating your sword-type weapon usage rights!"

To Li Mo's surprise, his impulsive experiment actually unlocked his right to use sword-type weapons!

It seems that, just as Wu Yuqing said, Li Mo is also a born swordsman!

Li Mo was somewhat pleased, but he also kept his promise. After tossing the Peerless Sword to Wu Yuqing, he held the Emperor Shock Spear in both hands, ready to fight Wu Yuqing.

To be honest, after seeing that Wu Yuqing was able to withstand Baal, Li Mo was no longer confident in Wu Yuqing's abilities.

Of course, this is all predicated on the absence of the use of divine souls, so it's really hard to say who would win or lose.

To ensure a fair fight, Li Mo even removed the Heavenly Emperor Armor. This armor was incredibly unfair to opponents without divine souls; even Wu Yuqing's Body-Piercing Sword Qi couldn't destroy the Heavenly Emperor Armor.

"Wu Yuqing, today I will grant your wish and fight you fairly!"

Li Mo unleashed an extremely powerful aura. He was going all out against Wu Yuqing, as this was a sign of respect for the strong.

Without wasting words, Wu Yuqing swiftly charged at Li Mo with her sword. The two brushed past each other and exchanged blows.

A trace of blood appeared at the corner of Li Mo's mouth. Facing the Body-Piercing Sword Qi, Li Mo had almost no power to resist without wearing the Heavenly Emperor Armor. After all, even a tank like Baal was killed by the Body-Piercing Sword Qi.

Of course, Wu Yuqing's situation was not optimistic either. Li Mo had no intention of showing any mercy to her. Even though Wu Yuqing used the light footwork of the Sword God Wu Bai, she could not dodge Li Mo's spear, which pierced a small hole in her right shoulder.

Despite the bloodshed, Wu Yuqing laughed instead: "Li Mo! I knew you were a formidable opponent! Hahaha!"

With Li Mo no longer wearing the Heavenly Emperor Armor and no longer using his divine soul, the two are evenly matched in strength. It would take at least a thousand moves in a life-or-death struggle to determine a winner.

But the enemy won't give them that time!

Just as the two were about to fight again, a flash of light suddenly appeared not far ahead, followed by a fireball that hurtled towards their faces!

Li Mo quickly changed his target, piercing the fireball with a single shot before retreating.

He said to Wu Yuqing, "It seems the enemy isn't going to give us that chance!"

With no other option, Wu Yuqing had to sheathe her sword. The enemy's encirclement was already imminent, and if Wu Yuqing continued to linger, it would only cause pain to her loved ones and joy to her enemies.
