Chapter 569: Divine Weapon as a Reward!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was also a reward from the martial arts tournament itself.
Aside from the Joined Finger the Murong Clan gave Happy, the champion of the young disciples in the martial arts tournament would also receive a divine weapon.
“The villa master chose you a good sword. He already sent someone to deliver it over, so it is now resting in our storage.” Master Murong was all smiles when he looked at Happy. “But I believe that you need a different weapon even more.”
As he spoke, he cast a glance at the gloves on Happy’s hands with an underlying meaning. “This equipment might have been finished by a master, but after refinement, it is still just a normal masterpiece. It cannot compare to a divine weapon. How about this? I will choose a weapon that is suitable for you from our storage.”
“I understand.”
Happy had been thinking about practicing Yue Clan’s Spear or Sword Technique, but since he gained Joined Finger, his plans changed. This technique complemented Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, and if he could get another pair of gloves, it would naturally be great.
Then, Master Murong brought out a pair of dazzling, snow-white, and soft pair of gloves out of thin air as if he had just performed magic.
Happy was stunned.
He was a little shocked at first, but he soon noticed the temperature around him swiftly dropping. The gloves in Master Murong’s hands were releasing a shocking chill in streams. Clearly, it was not just for show.
“This is...”
The Murong Clan Lady’s eyes lit up, and she quickly explained. “Hurry up and thank the master. This is the weapon that made my father famous! Heavenly Silk King Ice Gloves is its name, and my father relied on this divine weapon to make a name for himself!”
Master Murong smiled. Without waiting for Happy to speak, he threw the gloves that exuded a cold chill to him. “I will hand over this divine weapon to a hero. I’m old now, and the current world of martial artists is already a world of you youngsters.”
[Heavenly Silk King Ice Gloves. Middle grade divine weapon. They were created using the silk from the intelligent beast Ice Silk Worm King from Heaven Mountain, which was then bathed in sunlight and darkness for ten years. No water and fire can penetrate the silk, and no weapon can cut into it. There is also a strange chill about it.
[Attack: 1,000. Increase attack speed by 20%. Has the freezing effect from Ice Silk Worm King. Wherever its ice aura passes by, its enemy’s movement speed will be reduced by 20%. While you fight with the gloves, all the enemies in the area will be affected by freezing poison, and it will increase the usage of their qi.]
‘This is good stuff!’
Happy sucked in a sharp breath. He caressed Heavenly Silk King Ice Gloves lovingly with admiration.
The effects of the gloves were practically the same as the effects and damage of a supreme-grade martial art. They could also increase the speed at which the enemy used up their qi, which could compare to Silver Wolf’s Red Flame Palm.
With his Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, Happy might not even feel too diffident when he went up against an evil cult elder alone.
When he thought about how this divine weapon could complement his skills and how Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill could circulate automatically, he could no longer feel the bone-chilling cold from the gloves anymore.
“Thank you for your reward, master!”
Happy could already imagine that if he could push the gloves to the fourth echelon, he would have no one who could serve as his opponent in Inaction Realm. However, that was naturally just a dream. The refinement of divine weapons relied solely on luck, and if he failed, he would be left with nothing.
Little North only dared to try with Thousand Year Corpse King’s Right Arm because it was a low-grade demon vessel. Its damage was not high, and if it was not refined, it would not be such a great weapon. It had to be refined before it was valuable.
But it was different for Heavenly Silk King Ice Gloves. Even though its attack was lower than that of a fourth-echelon Nation Protecting Divine Sword, its attributes were very practical and valuable. Happy truly did not dare to take any risks with this item.
“You don’t need to thank me for this. This is your reward from Hero’s Mountain Villa. I am just helping them fulfill their wish.”
Master Murong naturally did not know that Happy was already thinking about how he should deal with this divine weapon. He laughed heartily and said, “But this item is also perfect for your title...”
“Title?”
“That’s right. Once you returned from the martial arts tournament, the sects have decided to call you Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero!”
“Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero?”
Happy found himself a little unsteady on his feet.
Such a title was really not very impactful. It did not give others a shocking feeling, contrary to what he had expected.
Master Murong seemed to have sensed the puzzlement in Happy’s heart, and he smiled before he said, “The people from Hero’s Mountain Villa are indeed extraordinary.
“They seem to have understood that you like to wear blue robes most of the time. They also know that the Murong Clan disciples usually keep a low profile when they wander about the land. They remain humble and do not act in a flashy manner, which was why they asked for the opinion from various sects and gave you this title.
“Gusu, blue robes, and hero!” Master Murong’s smile did not diminish. His voice was loud, and he seemed very satisfied. “It’s not bad! You obtained a title given to you personally by the elites of the sects. Next time, when you wander about the land, you can be proud of yourself.”
A system notification arrived.
“Ding!
“Obtained title: Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero. Your reputation in World of Martial Arts increased by 100,000 points!”
Happy’s gloominess only lasted for an instant. When he thought about it carefully, he found that such a title was actually an astonishing way to praise him.
Regardless of whether it was the word Gusu at the front of his title or the phrase blue-robed in the middle, they would all become nouns that would symbolize Happy in the future!
Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero!
The meaning that the blue-robed person in Gusu City was the strongest was contained within that phrase.
As for the last word, hero, it was a title that only the great heroes could have.
Once Happy understood the meaning behind it, Master Murong turned the topic of conversation back to the ultimate goal of the martial arts tournament, and his tone changed.
“The martial arts tournament was destroyed by the evil cult, but the master of the alliance has already been chosen by the sect leaders. They have come to the unanimous decision to have the creator of Complete Reality School, Wang Chongyang, to take up the task!”
It was the same as Happy had guessed.
Perhaps only the legendary Wang Chongyang, who had Pre-heaven Skill, could fight against Evil King Shi Zhixuan.
Master Murong’s expression turned solemn. “But the sects also suffered great losses. It was decided to attack Sky Demon Sect a month later, but during this period of time, the people from Sky Demon Sect will definitely harass and invade the sects. Even the Murong Clan has to be careful.
“But the elites from the evil cult should place their attention on the large sects. The ones who will take action in this area should be normal disciples from the evil cult, so they will not be hard to handle.”
“The evil cult has been running wild, so we can get rid of one of theirs, we will be ridding the world of one lesser evil,” the Murong Clan Lady said after she thought things through with her keen wit.
“That’s right.” Master Murong nodded. “Since we’ve already declared war with the evil cult, we do not need to be too wary. Immediately send word and give strict reminders to our disciples that when they see the people from the evil cult, they are not to pardon even a single one of them! The more they kill, the greater the reward will be!”
Happy said nothing.
After listening quietly for a while, he finally realized that Master Murong and the Murong Clan Lady had already finished giving him their instructions, so he left the hall.
“Happy.” The Murong Clan Lady caught up to him with light footsteps.
“My lady.”
“Hurry up and master Joined Finger. And if you can, try to reduce the number of times you use Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm in the future in case the people from Beggar’s Sect misunderstand you.”
“I understand.”
“Alright, you may leave now.” The Murong Clan Lady did not stop Happy again.
Happy bade farewell in a respectful manner, then met up with Eleventh Crane and the others, who had been knocked unconscious and were sent back while they were passed away. After a brief meeting, he left in a hurry.
Right then, there was no longer anything that could stop him from heading to Wudang Sect!
