"Yes, Lord Roman. ”

"Eighteen-year-old swordsman......" Roman closed his eyes slightly, his expression was full of embarrassment and emotion: "Eighteen-year-old swordsman, Lin Cheng, if I guess correctly, your mentor is at least a powerhouse at the level of a great swordsman, otherwise how can you be taught to become a full-fledged swordsman before the age of twenty?"

Ling Yun had a laugh in his heart, everything he did was through self-study, and after he arrived in this world, he was no exception, and he had never been instructed by any sword master at all.

Roman Swordsman frowned slightly, muttered to himself for a moment, raised his head and said, "With the Purple Cloud Empire as the center, I have almost seen or known the great swordsmen of the surrounding ten empires and kingdoms, I don't know which one your mentor is?"

"My mentor ......" This question Ling Yun is really hard to answer. He relied on the memories of his previous life to successfully cultivate to this realm, and if he insisted that he had a mentor, it could only be himself.

Shaking his head, Ling Yun said euphemistically: "Your Excellency Roman, my mentor is a hidden sword master, who has never walked around the outside world at all, and does not want others to know his name, so ...... Please forgive me for not being able to tell you. ”

Roman laughed, shook his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay." In his opinion, Ling Yun's mentor must be an extremely powerful Great Sword Master, and it was even possible to break through to the Sixth Order and reach the level of a Seventh Order Holy Sword Master. Not to mention that such a big man is a small third-order sword master, even those strong people who have entered the realm of a great sword master want to meet him, it is extremely difficult.

Ling Yun didn't explain to him on this issue, whatever he thought was nothing.

Roman Swordsman smiled, glanced at the sword on Ling Yun's body, and then stretched out his finger and pointed to a dark and shiny black iron stone on the side of the martial arts platform: "Your Excellency Lin Cheng, as long as you can perform three consecutive Dou Qi Slashes within ten seconds, and leave traces on the black iron stone." ”

"It's that simple?"

"Of course, judging from the energy fluctuations on your body, you already have the strength of a first-order sword master, as long as you can slash three powerful enough Dou Qi slashes, you can obtain the professional badge of a first-order sword master through the approval of our sword master union. ”

Ling Yun nodded, drew the sword out of the sheath, and the Nine Nine Xuan Sword Qi in his body poured into the sword at the same time, only to see that the light of the sword body suddenly brightened, and the three sword qi slashed on the black iron stone with a sharp sound of breaking the air, and with a bang, the stone chips flew one after another, leaving three sword marks nearly half a finger deep on it.

Drawing the sword, stabbing the sword, and retracting the sword, the three actions are like flowing water in one go, without the slightest pause.

After doing all this, Ling Yun made a slight gesture of please, asking him to verify the sword marks on the black iron stone.

There was a hint of surprise on the Roman Swordsman's face, and after verifying the sword marks left on the black iron stone, the surprise he looked at Ling Yun couldn't help but become even stronger.

In fact, according to the convention, if a ninth-order swordsman wants to be promoted to a first-order swordsman, he can't pass by releasing three Dou Qi slashes in ten seconds, not only that, but he also needs to be undefeated for three minutes under him, a third-order swordsman, in order to obtain the swordsman career badge. Those swordsmen who have the strength of their fighting spirit but have no combat experience will not be recognized by the swordsmen's union.

However, when he saw Ling Yun's age, he naturally regarded him as the kind of sword master who had been forced by his mentor to cultivate and fight, and had never been in contact with combat, so he naturally let go of a little water.

But now, seeing Ling Yun's light description, three sword qi burst out, and the strength of each sword qi was slightly better than that of the idle sword master's fighting qi slash, his eyes finally showed a look of surprise.

In less than two seconds, three sword qi were stimulated at will, and the strength of each sword qi was equivalent to the level of a newly promoted sword master who could exert his fighting qi with all his might, and this strength was already faintly below the second-order sword master. At least in terms of attack power, he had reached the level of a second-order sword master.

Such a young first-order sword master was surprising enough, if it was a second-order sword master...... Roman Sword Master shook his head, in the end, he could only attribute all this to Ling Yun's mysterious mentor, perhaps it was that mentor who taught him some kind of powerful sword technique, which allowed him to instantly stimulate this level of sword qi.

After revealing this hand, the Roman Sword Master had completely determined the identity of the Lingyun Sword Master in his heart.

Roman Sword Master put away the surprise on his face, and said with a solemn expression: "Your Excellency Lin Cheng, your cultivation at the moment has completely qualified to be promoted to a formal sword master. In the name of the Sword Master Guild of the Purple Cloud Empire, I now grant you the title and badge of a first-order sword master, hoping that you can make persistent efforts to reach the realm of a second-order sword master as soon as possible. After speaking, he took the sword master badge that the girl held over and handed it to Ling Yun.

Ling Yun took the badge and wore it on his chest.

The badge of the First Order Sword Master was entirely forged from silver through a mystical technique, which was simply difficult for ordinary people to imitate. The sword mark on it represents Ling Yun's class at the moment, a first-order sword master.

Wearing this badge is equivalent to an official announcement that Ling Yun has also entered the upper class of this world.

After hesitating for a moment, the Roman swordsman waved his hand slightly, and the girl immediately bowed in amusement, retreated, and closed the door before leaving.

Ling Yun glanced at the girl who had left, did not speak, and waited for the next step of the Roman Sword Master.

"Your Excellency Lin Cheng, now that you are an official swordsman under the Purple Cloud Empire, I wonder if you have the intention of entering the royal family and serving the country?" ”

As soon as he was promoted to the sword master, someone immediately threw an olive branch.

Ling Yun smiled lightly: "Roman Sword Master should be the sword master of the Sword Master Guild, why didn't you invite me to join the Sword Master Guild in advance, and let me join the royal family instead?"

Roman let out a sigh with a somewhat solemn expression: "Although I am a sword master of the Sword Master Guild, I will never forget that I am a child who grew up on the land of the Purple Cloud Empire. Without the cultivation environment given to me by the state, how could I be able to cultivate to this level in peace? I joined the Sword Master Guild just as an expedient method, using the convenience of the Sword Master Guild to obtain cultivation methods and cultivation materials, in the hope of better impacting a higher realm. I even hope to be able to get acquainted with some more sword masters here, and talk to them to become a member of our Purple Cloud Empire......"

Ling Yun knew that this was the so-called national and family honor that was extremely impressive in Lin Cheng. However, for the Purple Cloud Empire, neither Lin Cheng nor Ling Yun had the slightest sense of belonging, so they shook their heads very simply and said, "I'm sorry Your Excellency Roman, I don't plan to take on any position until I have cultivated to the realm that I am satisfied with." ”

If it were someone else, the Roman Swordsman might have promised a little more benefits and national righteousness to impress him, but Ling Yun ...... According to his identity card information, he is a side disciple from the Lin family of the sixth-level civilization Haisen Empire, although now their line has reached the edge of kicking out of the family, but with the appearance of a sword master, their status within the family is bound to change dramatically...... Moreover, he even vaguely doubted that the mysterious mentor behind Ling Yun was from the Lin family of the Senhai Empire......

Thinking of this, the Roman Sword Master finally sighed in his heart and said, "Your Excellency Lin Cheng, since you are focused on cultivation, we can't force you anymore, I just hope that when you have the heart to join a certain force in the future, you can consider our Purple Cloud Empire in advance." Rest assured, with Your Excellency Lin Cheng's current cultivation and talent, our Majesty the King will definitely not treat you badly......"

Ling Yun nodded politely: "I'll consider this." ”

"There are too few sword masters in our Purple Cloud Empire now, and compared to the surrounding empires, they are even less than one-third of those of other countries. Moreover, as a fourth-order empire, there is a lack of fourth-order sword masters, and without the deterrence of high-end force, our Purple Cloud Empire's status in the international arena is already worse day by day. Speaking of this, Roman glanced at Ling Yun, who still didn't say anything, and finally gave up helplessly: "Your Excellency Lin Cheng, our Purple Cloud Empire is also an outstanding person, I don't know if Your Excellency can choose a few disciples or attendants within our country?"

Ling Yun still has an old saying: "I will consider this." ”

Seeing that the Roman Sword Master seemed to have something to say, Ling Yun, who couldn't stand his vigorous recruitment, hurriedly took the initiative to say, "If the assessment procedures have been completed, then I will leave first." After saying that, he immediately left the Sword Master Guild.

The Roman Sword Master watched Ling Yun gradually move away, and suddenly remembered the information displayed on his identity card, and a hint of joy immediately appeared between his eyebrows: "Lin Cheng, a side family of the sixth-level civilization Haisen Empire. Although this family is in decline, if there is such a young swordsman, his status will inevitably rise, and sooner or later he will be able to return to the Lin family...... Since he can't be recruited, why not give him a lot of benefits while they are in decline, maybe you can rely on them as an intermediary to climb to the sixth-level civilization Haisen Empire. ”
