Chapter 122: Yi Xue's Assessment

  Su Wen smiled and began to explain.

  "Jubaozhai is a shop I opened in Huaxia, which only sells all kinds of treasures. Our Jubaozhai has always been committed to the excavation of various unknown and known treasures around the world. If you come to Huaxia, welcome to visit."

  The three of them heard this and all showed a hint of curiosity.

  Suoren thought for a moment and said: "Su Wen, I won't hide it from you, the three of us may be stationed in Huaxia frequently in the future."

  Beck followed, "The reason we appeared on the Bright Number this time is that we are going to Huaxia. As the direct heirs of the three major auction houses, we have to search for more treasures for the auction house. Huaxia is vast and rich in resources, with talented people and a land of wonders, it has always been a place that all Western auction houses must contend for."

  Sa Ya Te also smiled slightly: "Su Wen, if your Gathering Treasure Hall really has a lot of treasures, we can establish a long-term cooperative relationship. We need treasures and we have money. If it's about purchasing power, very few can surpass our three major auction houses."

  Su Wen nodded: "I still can't make any promises to you, after you arrive in Huaxia, you will naturally know what the Gathering Treasure Pavilion is."

  "Alright, looking forward to it."

  "We will definitely go visit when we have time."

  "I hope we can continue to work together. In the future, when we are in Huaxia, I also hope you can take care of us more. After all, Huaxia is still a very unfamiliar place for the three of us."

  Su Wen smiled: "Alright!"

  A knock at the door was heard.

  "Wait a minute." Su Wen opened the door and found it was Yuxue. He smiled and said, "Wife, how did you come?"

  Yi Xue furrowed her brow, finding Su Wen taking advantage of her again.

  "Suewen, this beautiful lady is actually your wife, it's really enviable." Solen spoke first, "Beautiful lady, nice to meet you, I'm Suewen's good friend."

  "I'm Beck, nice to meet you, your husband is excellent."

  "Your beauty eclipses a hundred flowers. Sayat is delighted to make your acquaintance."

  Yi Xue looked at the three of them, unsure of how to explain things.

  Su Wen saw the awkwardness of Yuxue and hastily said: "You three don't misunderstand, Yuxue is not my wife yet, she is the boss of our gathering treasure hall. If we cooperate in the future, you will deal with her."

  The three of them looked at each other. They really didn't understand what the difference was between a boss's wife, an old lady and a wife.

  Su Wen then introduced the three to Yixue, and when he heard that Su Wen and Beike had made a deal worth 600 million US dollars, Yixue was still somewhat surprised.

  A few people chatted for a while. Su Wen took out the Evil Dragon's Eye and gave it to Beck.

  "Su Wen, wait a minute, I'll have someone transfer the money to you right away."

  "Alright!"

  A few minutes later, the transfer was completed.

  Baek immediately made a phone call, looking for someone to return the Evil Dragon's Eye.

  Everything came to an end and the three of them left.

  "After Yixue and the other two left, he spoke up: "You're really extremely lucky to know those three. From now on, the road to gathering treasures will be much smoother. In Huaxia, Shengshi Auction House is the only one that stands out, but it's different in the West. There are many auction houses in the West and there are also many rich people, so some things can sell for a higher price."

  Su Wen smiled: "Knowing them three was just a coincidence. Alright, let's not talk about that. What brings you here so early to find me?"

  "The Swordsmanship Exchange Conference is about to begin, and as my disciple, you are also a member of the Swordsmanship Association, so you can't be absent."

  "Can't I be absent?"

  "Everyone in the Swordsmanship Association must attend. We've just offended Ma Guangnian and can't let him get a handle on us."

  "I didn't plan on being absent anyway, let's go now!"

  The two went out and Huang Nan was already waiting over there.

  When the three of them arrived at the central hall, many people had already arrived.

  "Go get it first." Yuxue pointed to the queue over there.

  Su Wen looked back and found that many people had received a thin booklet from there. The three of them lined up for ten minutes and also received one. Su Wen flipped through it and found that the booklet was all about the introduction of the Swordsmanship Association, which was of no use to him at all.

  About half an hour later, the swordsmanship exchange conference began.

  An old man with a white beard walked up, and he gave a smiling opening speech. However, what left Su Wen speechless was that this old man was none other than Xia Qing's master. Su Wen listened to the old man ramble on for half a day before remembering his Taoist name.

  Sword crazy!

  The old man finished speaking and casually performed a set of sword moves, setting an example for everyone. Afterwards, many people began to take the stage to show off their sword skills. Su Wen didn't understand much about swordsmanship, but he could still see some doorways, while Huang Nan was dazed and confused, pretending to be knowledgeable. On the other hand, Yi Xue watched with rapt attention, her fingers constantly waving, and upon closer inspection, they were exactly the same as the sword moves being performed on stage. Su Wen was shocked, he hadn't expected Yi Xue to have this talent.

  I don't know how many people were on stage, but many of them seemed to have gained a lot from it. Su Wen, however, looked rather drowsy.

  The meeting will not be adjourned at noon.

  Su Wen saw some people sneaking away to eat and also quietly slipped away.

  Yi Xue saw Su Wen leave, and could only smile bitterly. She seemed to have known all along that Su Wen wouldn't be able to take it. What caught Yi Xue off guard was that half an hour later, Su Wen ran back, carrying a big bag of food.

  "You're so absorbed in what you're watching, you must not have had time to eat anything. I brought some food for you, hurry up and eat."

  Yi Xue looked at Su Wen's serious expression and a hint of emotion flashed in her eyes: "Have you eaten?"

  "I ate."

  "Cheater!"

  "I really ate it, half a bun."

  "Bring out the food and let's eat together!"

  "Alright!" Su Wen started searching his pockets, but Huang Nan on the other side couldn't sit still and came over in a very impolite manner.

  Su Wen reluctantly gave some to Huang Nan, then drove him away. This guy was too much of a hindrance, didn't he see that he and Yi Xue were cultivating their feelings? The two secretly ate together, with a kind of shared suffering feeling.

  In the afternoon, the theme of the fencing exchange conference changed.

  Many people started going up to try out their swordsmanship, and it wasn't long before the Sword Maniac appeared again. He looked at the people below and said, "Alright, the final event of the grand assembly. If anyone wants to take the test to become a Great Swordsman, you can start now."

  As soon as Jian Fengzi's words fell, many people were eager to try, and even Yixue beside Su Wen was no exception. Su Wen originally thought that Yixue would not make a move today, but it turned out that she was waiting for this final great swordsmanship assessment.

  "Yi Xue, isn't it difficult to be assessed as a great sword master?"

  "It's tough, there are many swordsmen in Huaxia, but less than a hundred great swordsmen. It can be said that all great swordsmen are true masters of swordsmanship, I've prepared for so long, and this time I don't know if I'll become a great swordsman either."

  "It's just a title, is it that important?"

  "Whatever I love, I want to reach its peak." Yuxue's tone was serious, that's her personality.

  "What is the Great Swordsmanship Assessment like? Who will be assessing?" Su Wen asked thoughtfully.

  "The assessment of a great sword master is generally held once a year, and the assessment method is very simple. One, as long as you can defeat one great sword master, it is considered a pass. Two, if you can withstand five minutes in the hands of three great sword masters, it is also considered a pass."

  "It's like that, it seems to be really difficult." Su Wen looked towards the center of the hall, and someone had already gone up for assessment. However, those who went up couldn't even last a minute under the three great swordsmen, let alone five minutes. One poor guy was defeated as soon as he made his first move.

  Su Wen looked at it for half a day, and the best result was that one person persisted until the second great sword master made his move.

  Although Su Wen didn't understand any sword techniques, seeing that dazzling sword technique made him secretly admire the complexity of the Swordsmanship Association. If this were ancient times, these people would all be considered heroes of the green forest.

  Yi Xue waited for a long time and finally went up.

  "Be careful!" Su Wen reminded.

  "Don't worry!" Yuxue glanced at Suwen, and a rare smile actually appeared on her face.

  Yi Xue took the stage, and many people showed a look of surprise.

  "How beautiful!"

  "I remembered, his name is Yuxue, during the sword master assessment, he defeated his opponent with a single sword."

  "It's been a while since he was going to assess the great sword master, what a terrifying woman, I don't know if she can give everyone a surprise."

  Yi Xue stepped onto the stage, and immediately a great swordmaster walked out from that side.

  "Please enlighten me!"

  "Please!"

  The two of them suddenly clashed together.

  Actually, Yixue originally did not plan to take the assessment of the Great Sword Master, but after practicing Su Wen's physical skills and taking the Water Spirit Grass, her strength greatly increased. This time, she encountered a rare opportunity again, so she decided to participate in the assessment.

  Five minutes passed quickly, and Yuxue was actually evenly matched with the great sword master. Soon, a second great sword master took the stage, who turned out to be a Westerner, wielding a knight's sword. However, when facing Yuxue, he still didn't gain much advantage. In the end, when the five minutes were up, the man decisively retreated from the scene.

  Many people were cheering for Yuxue, but Su Wen obviously noticed that Yuxue was somewhat exhausted.

  As everyone waited with bated breath, the third great swordmaster walked up. Su Wen looked over and discovered that this great swordmaster had actually come from beside Ma Guangyin, and before going on stage, Ma Guangyin seemed to have said something to him.

  "Not good." Su Wen had a very bad feeling.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, as soon as he took to the field, the great swordmaster launched a fierce attack. Yuki was already exhausted, and now she had lost the initiative, completely unable to counterattack. With a huge advantage, the swordmaster thrust his sword towards Yuki's chest.

  "Hah!"

  Yi Xue did not dodge this sword and spat out a mouthful of blood.

  The great swordsman saw that one sword had not pierced Yuxue's chest, and yet he did not stop, pulling out his sword to slash at Yuxue's neck.

  Su Wen saw this scene and could no longer sit still, the ugly treasure sword smashed towards the great sword master. Many people also issued a cry of surprise at the same time, what kind of assessment was this, it was simply killing people!
