In three years, Lin Binqiang had long stepped into Condensing Truth, while Wang Junze had become a joke in everyone's eyes.
Unexpectedly, three years later, the two suddenly met here, and... as soon as they met, Lin Binqiang started mocking him directly.
"Third Brother Lin, long time no see." Wang Junze squinted slightly and replied blandly, "I heard you wanted to join the Cloud Mirror Sect too, so why are you still in Jubei City?"
When Wang Xin joined the Cloud Mirror Sect, Lin Binqiang actually went too, but unfortunately, he was rejected by the Cloud Mirror Sect! Opening twenty-one veins, for ordinary people, was already very impressive, but it was still not enough to become a True Inheritor of the Cloud Mirror Sect. Naturally, with Lin Binqiang's status, he was unwilling to become an Outer Disciple, so he simply returned. This incident had always been regarded as a deep humiliation by Lin Binqiang.
Now that Wang Junze deliberately brought it up, it was clearly a counterattack to the other party's mockery.
"That's still much better than your Innate Wasted Vein!" With a cold sneer, Lin Binqiang completely tore off his disguise and taunted, "What is a waste like you doing at the Spirit Treasure Pavilion? This is a place only Martial Artists can come to. Are you worthy?"
"No need for Third Brother Lin to worry, Xin'er brought back a Meridian Opening Pill for me, and I have successfully opened my veins." Feeling a slight stir in his heart, Wang Junze deliberately said.
It was certain that he couldn't hide the fact that he opened his veins, so he might as well use this opportunity to mention the Opening Pill. After all, outsiders didn't know how many veins he had opened. With this reason, he could brush it off.
"Opening Pill? That girl Wang Xin really is generous." A hint of jealousy flashed in Lin Binqiang's eyes, and he sneered, "But using an Opening Pill on a waste like you is truly a waste. How many veins can it help you open? One or two? Oh, no, our Young Master Wang is a genius, maybe he can open nine veins, hahaha!"
"Regardless of how many veins are opened, it has nothing to do with you." Wang Junze replied flatly, "If there's nothing else, please step aside and don't interfere with my sword purchase."
"Wang Junze, do you dare to fight me?" Lin Binqiang said coldly.
"A fight?" Wang Junze glanced at Lin Binqiang with mockery, "You are Condensing Truth, and I have just opened my veins. You talk about fighting me, shame on you for even saying it."
"No True Qi, just compare swordsmanship!" Lin Binqiang spoke again, "Weren't you said to be a Sword Path Genius three years ago? Now, let's compare swords. Do you dare?"
Compare swords?!
Slightly stunned, Wang Junze couldn't help being a bit surprised.
Lin Binqiang had envied him before, so wanting to humiliate him with swordsmanship now was not surprising. However... forcing him to compare swords at the Spirit Treasure Pavilion in front of so many people, his motives probably weren't that simple, right?
Profound Moon Sword Sect!
In an instant, the name surfaced in Wang Junze's mind.
The Saintess of the Profound Moon Sword Sect was coming to Jubei City. Now, throughout the entire Northern Domain, countless people were flocking to Jubei City just for this opportunity. But among so many people, who would the Saintess of the Profound Moon Sword Sect see?
Although the Lin Family is the top family in Jubei City, it means nothing to the Profound Moon Sword Sect!
Unless, Lin Binqiang could make a name in Jubei City, such as... the reputation of a Sword Path Genius?!
In this way, with this reputation and the identity of the Lin Family's young master, he might have a chance to meet the Saintess Xuan Yue.
Although I am an Innate Wasted Vein now, three years ago, I did have the name of a Sword Path genius. If he could defeat me in the Sword Dao, he could also gain some fame.
"Why should I agree to you?"
While thoughts raced in his mind, Wang Junze still continued to refuse indifferently.
"A Rare Treasure Sword!" Lin Binqiang spoke again, "Aren't you going to buy a sword? As long as you can beat me, I'll give you a Rare Treasure Sword. If you lose, it's no big deal, just admit in front of everyone that you are a waste and that your Sword Dao is far inferior to mine, how about it?"
So that's his plan!
With a sneer in his heart, Wang Junze immediately understood the other's intentions.
Completing this duel in front of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion would surely be witnessed by many Martial Artists. After all, those who could come to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion were almost all Martial Artists. If he wanted to gain fame, this was definitely an excellent opportunity.
Using a Rare Treasure Sword to pave the way for himself, stepping on my reputation to gain the title of a Sword Path genius, his plans are indeed shrewd.
Moreover, Lin Binqiang probably never expected to lose. The Rare Treasure Sword was nothing more than a promise he never needed to fulfill, and instead, he could use it to attract more attention.
And even if I refuse, he could still use it to ridicule me, mocking me as a former Sword Path genius who doesn't even have the courage to accept a challenge, which would not be a loss for him either.
But... why are you so sure you can win against me?!
Thinking this, Wang Junze couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
For me, why can't this be an opportunity as well?!
Lin Binqiang wants to step on me to rise, so why can't I counter that and step on him to regain the name of Sword Dao Genius?
