Chapter 547 Paper Fraud
——Sword Cultivation Heroes Ranking Arena 1——
Quan Ming unleashed a torrent of criticism, which can be summarized as a complete disdain for Jiang Heyun, regardless of her background or strength:
"If you admit defeat, I'll give you a chance; otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Quan Ming talked for a long time, and Jiang He and the other cultivators of the Xiaoyao Sect listened for a long time until their ears were calloused.
Jiang He maintained a smile throughout, facing Quan Ming, with only the most ordinary spirit sword at her side.
Has anyone ever told you that villains love to taunt?
Jiang He smiled and looked up at the match time.
When Jiang He arrived, there was still one minute before the match officially started.
She watched the countdown slowly reach ten seconds.
The first round of the competition starts at a fixed time; once the monks arrive, they simply need to wait for the competition to begin.
If the cultivator has not arrived by the start of the competition, there will be at most one minute of waiting time.
In other words, she had one minute to defeat Quan Ming.
Jiang He never looked directly at Quan Ming, and the countdown slowly reached zero.
Jiang He raised his sword.
But...
"One second is enough."
A smile spread across Jiang He's lips.
Finally, I can install a big one...
"What do you mean?"
Quan Ming was slightly taken aback; Jiang He's opening remark puzzled him.
Now this sentence has popped up again.
One second?
Quanming opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
Suddenly, a gust of wind pierced through his chest.
Quan Ming's eyes were filled with astonishment. How... how could this be?
Quan Ming fell to the ground, a deep sword wound in his chest.
"Redwood of the Free and Unfettered Sect wins the No. 1 Arena on the Sword Cultivator Ranking."
"What? How could this be? Senior brother couldn't possibly lose."
"Senior brother, are you alright?"
"Was the judgment wrong?"
"This person from the Free and Unfettered Sect ended the match in a second, it's definitely fake!"
The Lingyun Sect cultivators raised their voices of doubt, and in fact, not only them, but the cultivators in the audience were also completely bewildered.
"Isn't the Free and Unfettered Sect a new sect? In less than a second, the sword pierced through Quan Ming. Moreover, according to the AI, it was just a hair's breadth away from piercing his heart. The control is terrifying."
"The term 'penetrating wind' originally meant literally, meaning it actually went straight through the chest, which is quite absurd."
"Does anyone know what cultivation level this female cultivator from the Free and Unfettered Sect is? I still find it outrageous. Quan Ming's swordsmanship isn't bad either; he's at the late Nascent Soul stage. In this match, he didn't even have the power to fight back, or rather, he was eliminated before he could even react. His opponent is either also at the late Nascent Soul stage, or..."
"Impossible, absolutely not the Nascent Soul stage. I am also at the Nascent Soul stage, and I couldn't tell this person's cultivation level."
"How do you explain that? I feel that Quan Ming is more like a newbie compared to the other party, and he's like a max-level master. There's no comparison between them. He didn't even last a second. Tsk tsk tsk."
"Just who is this opponent? They're so strong. This is a complete stomp."
"Didn't I say it's from the Free and Unfettered Sect?"
"Does the Free and Unfettered Sect have such a powerful person?"
The audience in the sword-fighting arena were still looking for Jiang He, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang He disappeared without leaving a trace.
The match in Match 1 ended quickly enough. Once a match in one venue was over, a new round of drawing lots would be held among the remaining cultivators who had not yet played, and then the next match would begin.
In this way, time and space will not be wasted.
As for the order and timing of the second round, these are unpredictable. This arrangement in the sect competition is a way of indirectly testing mentality.
The netizens who were waiting in the No. 1 arena of the Sword Cultivator Ranking were almost going crazy, and no one had told them that Jiang He was so strong.
[Damn, which idiot told me to bet on Quan Ming? This guy is no good either.]
It's not just bad, it's delicious!
I'm speechless. I went there to earn some pocket money, but I lost it all.
In the beginning, I saw that the cultivators from Lingyun Sect were always mocking Xiaoyao Sect and showing all sorts of disdain. I thought they had a great chance of winning, but it turned out to be like this.
I'm speechless. If you can't win, can you please stop making empty promises? I really thought Quan Ming's swordsmanship was that amazing. It's so annoying!
Is it possible that it's not that Quanming is too bad, but that Hongmu is too strong?
I don't know, but I've lost all interest in watching the game.
What's the point of caring who wins and who loses? Don't you guys even bother watching the replay? I watched it at 10x speed and still couldn't quite see how Hongmu started his momentum.
Of course I'll pay attention! I've already invested money in it!
: Awesome, this is so awesome! Hahaha, our Free and Unfettered Sect is different. I bet everything on Senior Sister Hong!
Hey you, you from the Free and Unfettered Sect upstairs, stop right there! You're pretending to be weak, aren't you? So all our money went into your pockets?
Scallion and Pork Dumplings: Wait, don't get too excited yet! Guess what I found? It seems this Quanming... emmm, it's really not that great.
Looks like there's some gossip? (Puts an ear)
Scallion and pork dumplings: Remember that talk about the gifted youth program? That's barely the tip of the iceberg. Let me tell you something surreal: I just looked at Quan Ming's information, tsk...
What did you find?
The complete inscription of Lingyun Sect?
Scallion and Pork Dumplings: That's him! This guy is something else. Isn't his whole family a high-ranking family? They basically all cultivate swordsmanship. Quanming University also chose sword cultivation as its major, but he studied a 4+4 program.
4+4? I don't quite understand.
Scallion and Pork Dumplings: If you don't know what 4+4 is, you can search it up. The key point is that Quanming graduated from university after four years and was directly reborn as a medical cultivator using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. He's now even affiliated with a cultivation academy as a physician.
Holy crap, I understand now. As a medical cultivator, I'm actually a bit overwhelmed.
What happened? What's wrong?
We medical cultivators basically study a 5+3+2 program: five years of undergraduate studies, three years of postgraduate studies, two years of doctoral studies, and after entering a sect, we have to be apprentices for another two years. That's about how we can make it. If you're really strong, it's fine to enter a sect earlier. The main thing is that I just heard from Conghua Pork Dumpling that Quanming University's major was sword cultivation, so he just switched to medical cultivation at the last minute.
The scariest thing is that Quan Ming has now completed his apprenticeship and even has a medical license.
Holy crap, this is huge! I always knew that healers take a long time to mature, but is Quan Ming a healer or a swordsman?
Whether he cultivates medicine, swordsmanship, or both, it doesn't matter. All I know is that someone like him who has only studied medicine for four years must not be very skilled.
What if Quan Ming is a genius? Wouldn't you be wrongly accusing him?
No, I'm not wrong. I dug up his graduation thesis, and it's unbelievable. It seems he even had a ghostwriter write it.
Wow, this is amazing! The more you dig, the more juicy the story becomes. If I were to get treatment for someone like this, I'd rather stay sick.
[Oh dear, I checked the StarNet for a bit, and it seems our conversation is trending.]
The matter of Quan Ming's academic paper fraud can be considered a major or minor issue; the key lies in whether or not it is investigated.
