Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System
chapter-33

Elder Miao shook his head. "If it were just that, I wouldn't call him heaven-defying Talent. The Kid's name is Han Cai. He joined our sect two years ago. His father used all his life savings and sold his family heirloom to get him into our sect directly. When Elder Zhou and Elder Ji behaved unruly in front of the outer sect disciples, I had to take the matter seriously as a discipline hall elder and investigate it thoroughly, as this disciple caused two outer sect elders to fight without worrying about consequences. So after the event, I discreetly went to check on the disciple who was the reason for this whole event. I visited his quarters secretly multiple times. During one of my visits, I saw him sparring with elder Zhou. The strength he was using to fight was not level 1 qi condensation level, but actually, he was at level 2 of qi condensation level, and when he attacked, his Sword sent out two cranes made out of sword qi which meant he was not at level 1 of sword technique but at least level 2.

Elder Miao continued, "He joined the outer sect at age ten and began his cultivation journey. The last time he reported his cultivation to the sect hall, he was eleven years old and showed cultivation of level one of Qi condensation and level one crane sword technique. This summer, Han Cai will be twelve now, and in less than two years, he reached 2nd level of Qi condensation and the second level of crane sword technique. Five months ago, he was at level 1 of Qi condensation and the Crane Sword technique. Outer sect elder Zhou verified his cultivation himself in front of the outer sect disciples, so this could not be faked. This means in five months, He went from level 1 to level 2 in Cultivation and sword technique."

Elder Miao was silent for a while, then spoke again, "But if this were the reason, I still wouldn't call him a heaven-defying Talent…."

After saying this much, older Miao stopped speaking. He was still determining if he should talk further. The whole hall was silent. For the moment, all elders, even the sect master, were in deep thought about a disciple who could improve his cultivation by a level in five months was indeed a genius talent. Every genius was a very precious resource for the sect as they were the future powerhouses of the sect. There were no more than five disciples with such Talent in the sky-soaring sect; they were all core disciples of the sect.

The silence prevailed for a few more breaths of time. Then another elder spoke, "Then what is the reason you called him Heaven-defying talent, elder Miao."

Elder Miao hesitated but finally spoke, "When I saw him sparring with elder outer sect elder Zhou. Because Elder Zhou's cultivation and skill levels are low, he might not have noticed, but I was able to notice something peculiar. He was not showing his full strength to elder Zhou while sparring, especially in sword technique it was like he was playing with elder Zhou, Han Cai's sword technique is far superior to elder Zhou's. But that is not the end of it. I am at level 3 of the sword crane technique, and his techniques were better than mine."

This one of the inner sect elders sitting close to the sect master spoke, "So you are saying his crane sword technique is at level 4?"

Elder Miao nodded. The hall went silent again. The inner sect's elders, even the sect master, were quiet, but their eyes were glowing. 11-year-old level 4 sword master in crane technique, Most cultivators in the sect take more than 100 years to reach level 4 of the sword technique. He mastered it in 2 years. Who was he? Dao child of Sword?

This was too unbelievable.

After a long silence, the sect master coughed to break the awkward silence, and he spoke, "Elder Miao, this time, I would like to preside in outer sect tournaments too."
