When Yu Xuan stepped onto the Foundation Establishment stage, murmurs rippled through the crowd.
Opposite him stood a disciple clad in pale violet green robes, a longsword at his side. His posture was elegant and steady not quite rigid, but clearly disciplined.
'A swordsman?' Yu Xuan raised an eyebrow. That was rare for someone from the Elemental Heaven Peak.
Most sword cultivators hailed from the Martial Heaven Peak. Still, something about the way this opponent stood… it didn't scream "pure swordsman." More likely, he merely dabbled in sword techniques.
Even Lan Hao, his opponent from before, had possessed Fist Intent — an extension of the Will Path, though it had clearly been influenced by his fire affinity.
The Will Path wasn't limited to swords or fists — it was about developing an intent powerful enough to influence the external world.
