Pingzhen Town, a small town less than ten miles away from the Holy Sword Sect, is relatively prosperous due to the protection of the Holy Sword Sect.
Due to the prestigious Name Sword Conference, this already bustling small town is even more bustling, with crowds of people and a sea of people.
It took Chen Mo a circuitous journey of ten days from the wilderness inn to Pingzhen Town.
"The Name Sword Conference is just an excuse, if you want to get deeper into the plan of the Holy Sword Sect, you need to be among the top ten in the Name Sword Conference... It seems that I have to get qualified for the competition first."
After a moment of reflection, Chen Mo made up his mind. His sword skills were not outstanding, he had only studied for a few days at the Cangsha Sect. It might be challenging to break into the top ten of this talent-packed Name Sword Conference, but "everything is possible with human effort..."
"Since it's a Name Sword Conference, I'll need to find a sword first."
Chen Mo looked at the bustling street, where not only swordsmen participating in the Name Sword Conference, but also many curious onlookers were there to watch the excitement.
The Holy Sword Sect is renowned far and wide, and is a holy land that all swordsmen around the world aspire to. The Name Sword Conference, once opened, attracted a lot of people. Compared to the previous recruitment by Fu Bo at Rely Mountain Sect, the hustle and bustle of this Name Sword Conference was hard to compare.
"This one."
Chen Mo wandered around the streets of Pingzhen Town, and finally chose a sword shop. A wide variety of swords were displayed inside the shop, extending out to the street.
"Shopkeeper, find me a good sword."
Chen Mo entered the shop and took a look, but didn't find anything to his liking. After thinking for a moment, he called out to the shopkeeper, asking him to bring out the store's treasure.
The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes, with a large belly. He looked expensive and received Chen Mo's words happily, opening his mouth to welcome him.
"What kind of sword would you like?"
"A good sword, an excellent sword."
After looking around the shop, Chen Mo said seriously, "I don't see any swords in your shop that I like, does there really not be any better ones?"
"You have really good eyesight, since I've met someone as discerning as you, I won't be hiding it any longer."
Saying this, the chubby shopkeeper turned and entered the back of the sword shop, taking out three long swords, one red, one blue, and one black. "Sir, look here, these are the three treasures of my shop, all extraordinary..."
Although Chen Mo is not familiar with swords, he can still discern some things from these three swords, which are a few levels higher than the ones in the shop.
"Hmph, these are considered the treasures of your shop?
A proud voice came from outside the shop, and a young man in a purple robe, with a long sword at his waist and a 'Sword' emblem hanging from his belt, walked in from another place.
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper's expression turned unpleased, and he furrowed his brow, "What do you mean by that? If this cannot be considered a treasure of your shop, then what kind of sword could be considered a treasure?"
It's not that the shopkeeper was boasting about his own shop, but the three swords in his shop were undoubtedly the top ones being sold in Pingzhen Town. He had put in a lot of effort to obtain these three swords, and now in the mouth of that young man, they were worthless. How could he not be angry?
A 'clink' sound was heard as the young man drew his sword from its sheath, and a cold blade of light shot out, with the blade being stuck into the ground. The green hilt and purple blade were particularly eye-catching.
"Of course, it is my Green Gan Dan Ziyun Sword."
The young man smiled, narrowed his eyes slightly, and smirked at the shopkeeper.
At the words, the shopkeeper's face instantly flickered with a look of fear. As a sword seller, he was naturally well-acquainted with famous swords in the world, especially the famous Qinggang Ziyun Sword.
"You, you are the young master of the Forging Sword Manor, Li Yijian?"
"That's right. Tell me, is my sword significantly stronger than the three in your shop?"
"That's... naturally."
The shopkeeper nodded and nodded, admitting that compared to the other person's sword, his three were indeed inferior.
Chen Mo turned around, looked at the long sword in Li Yijian's hand, and smiled, "How many silver coins are you willing to part with for your sword?"
"What did you say?"
Li Yijian raised his eyebrows and his expression was full of dissatisfaction, "This is the Qinggang Ziyun Sword, a famous sword in the world. It can be called a divine weapon. I cannot afford to part with it."
"Then what do you say?"
Chen Mo couldn't help but give him a white look, "I'm here to buy a sword. What are you showing off for?"
Li Yijian's mouth twitched. He admitted that he had a component of boasting, but being caught by Chen Mo directly, his face showed some discomfort.
"Why don't you tell me what you need the sword for? I can help you choose one."
Li Yijian took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and forced out a smile.
"I want to participate in the Name Sword Conference and make it into the top ten."
Chen Mo was full of confidence.
The shopkeeper was shocked all over, "You really dare to think of using the sword from my shop to participate in the Name Sword Conference?"
Li Yijian snickered, "You really know how to joke, participating in the Name Sword Conference? You think you can just buy a sword on the street and participate? Participating is feasible, but the swords here...I have to say are not suitable for use. If you go to participate in the Name Sword Conference with these swords, it will only bring shame to you. If you want to participate, it's your only chance if you can bring out a sword as powerful as my Qinggang Ziyun Sword. Only then can you possibly achieve a good ranking..."
Li Yijian's words were full of boasting about his Qinggang Ziyun Sword, whether it was now or when he entered the shop earlier.
Chen Mo couldn't help but slightly frown, suddenly remembering an incident that happened a few days ago. He smiled and said, "The Qinggang Ziyun Sword is very powerful, right? Then why did I hear a few days ago that you teamed up with the young master of Tian Shan Sect and still weren't able to defeat the Jiu Swordsman who was wielding only half a sword?"
Upon his words, Li Yijian, who had just been ridiculing Chen Mo, turned pale instantly. He stammered for a long time but couldn't come up with an explanation, his face reddening in embarrassment.
Being disturbed by Li Yijian like that, Chen Mo lost his interest instantly. After bidding farewell to the shopkeeper, he planned to visit other sword shops.
In the crowded streets, two figures stood out.
A woman in a red long dress, veiled with gauze, with a seductive figure and flowing black hair, and another woman in black battle armor, wearing a bull horn helmet, and carrying a great sword across her waist with silver hair.
"Banxia, this trip is a mission assigned to us by the King to investigate the true intentions of the Holy Sword Sect in hosting this Name Sword Conference. You must not act carelessly, or else if anything goes wrong, I won't be able to speak well for you in front of the King."
Yun Chu Xiu turned his head to look at Feng Ban Xia beside him, with a serious face, fearing that the guy would lose his temper and start a fight.
"I know."
Feng Ban Xia nodded seriously, and there were a few more seriousness in the eyes that showed from the bull horn helmet.
"Know and... Ah!"
As Yun Chun Xiu was speaking, a figure suddenly collided with her, and she stumbled backwards a few steps. Her eyebrows furrowed in dissatisfaction, and she looked up to see the person who had bumped into her was a man in a blue robe, carrying a long sword and holding a drunken bamboo wine flask.
"Filthy man"
Yun Chun Xiu muttered an obscenity and was about to teach the man in front of her a lesson, but saw that he had already passed out on the street, giggling foolishly.
Yun Chun Xiu's expression carried a trace of displeasure. She was also lazy and didn't want to continue paying attention to him. She turned and was about to leave with Feng Ban Xia, but when she turned her head, he was nowhere to be seen...
