C854 There Was Still Lingering Fear in His Heart
Zhang Yi sighed. He was somewhat afraid. He had never thought that such a thing would happen. He had never thought that his indulgence of the child would develop to such an extent.2
It seemed like he really had to discipline Zhang Chao strictly. Otherwise, how could he be so naive as to cause such a huge disaster? He couldn't help but bring harm to himself and the entire Zhang family.
Zhang Yi took a sip of tea and sighed. He couldn't help but think to himself. It seemed like he couldn't stay in the Sword Forging Valley any longer. After all, there were many experts in this world. If this unfilial son caused any trouble, he wouldn't be so lucky next time.
Thinking back to the family before, Someone had once said something like this to him. He absolutely couldn't allow Zhang Chao to continue developing like this. Otherwise, it would definitely affect his family in the future, and he might even suffer misfortune.
And now, Zhang Yi had discovered that this matter had already happened. Today, he almost got himself into trouble, and even harmed his family.
Putting down the teacup in his hand, Zhang Yi's eyes were filled with determination as he muttered to himself, "From today onwards, I must discipline this unfilial son well. Hopefully, there is still time for all of this."
After leaving the room, Zhang Yi immediately informed all the people of Zhang family to leave Sword Forging Valley overnight. He did not dare to stay any longer to avoid any trouble later.
The next morning, the Sword Forging Valley was ready to start the Sword Seminar. The venue was the Sword Seminar Sea in the Sword Forging Valley. It looked like a mountain peak. In the mountain peak, someone seemed to have used some kind of divine weapon to cut it off. It left a very flat area, and it was quite spacious. The people of Sword Forging Valley had made a simple renovation of this place. Every year, the Sword Seminar would be held here.
Because this place was specially used for the Sword Seminar, and the surrounding sea of clouds was parallel to this place, it seemed like a sea of clouds as far as the eye could see. So, this place was named the Sword Seminar Sea.
Every year, this day arrived, and the Sword Conference Sea was packed with people. This was because every year, a divine weapon would appear in Sword Forging Valley. At this time, many people would come to fight for it, and the Sword Conference would be held. To put it bluntly, they wanted to select a powerful and responsible person to become the guardian of Sword Forging Valley.
In other words, Sword Forging Valley could give the newly forged divine weapon to the chief of the Sword Conference for free. However, there was only one condition. That was, if there was any danger in the Sword Forging Valley one day, it could happen. All those who had obtained the divine weapons of the Sword Forging Valley would have to return to this place to solve the problem together.
However, this wasn't too much for the people of the Pugilistic World. Furthermore, there was nothing wrong with the Sword Forging Valley. It was a rare occurrence every hundred years.
Moreover, all the weapons in the Sword Forging Valley were branded. When a person obtained the divine weapon in the Sword Forging Valley, they would have to sign a contract with the weapon. If the owner of the weapon died, then this divine weapon would return to the Sword Forging Valley and be reforged, turning into a new weapon.
Today, everyone would come here. Some of them were here to fight for the divine weapon, while others understood that they weren't strong enough and couldn't even enter the battlefield. However, they were also very curious as to who the divine weapon was.
There were a few people as well. For example, the family head of the family, or the Sect Master of the sect. They basically wouldn't fight for the divine weapons, because their status in the martial world was very high. If they fought with some juniors for the divine weapons, they would be ridiculed.
Furthermore, there was a clear rule in Sword Forging Valley that the divine weapon couldn't be given to each other. For example, if someone took the divine weapon, he or she wanted to give it to someone else. This was not allowed, because when the result came out, the divine weapon would have a soul mark on it, and no one else could use it.
Therefore, in order to obtain the divine weapon, one must have the strength to do so. If one didn't have it, or if one's skill was inferior to others, then one would have no fate with the divine weapon.
The rules set up in the martial arts arena were also more in line with the rules of the martial arts world. As long as someone was killed, they couldn't kill anyone. If someone was killed, then the killer wouldn't have the chance to obtain a Divine Weapon.
When Zhang Fann came to the Sword Forging Valley, Lee Yiheng had told Zhang Fann about these rules for a long time. Moreover, the Lightning Tribulation Sword that came from the Sword Forging Valley this time was something that Zhang Fann believed he had to obtain. Although it didn't seem fair to him, it was the best way to test a person's true strength.
Moreover, at the end, there would be an evaluation by all the elders of the Sword Forging Valley. This was basically a test of one's understanding of weapons.
From this, it could be seen that it wasn't that easy to choose the owner of a divine weapon from the sea of swords. It also required a certain amount of fate and strength.
Zhang Fann followed everyone to the Sword Sea and found that the surroundings were filled with people. Moreover, according to the different strength and status, the size of the territory each sect or family had was different.
The Black River Hall held a very high position in the pugilistic world. Therefore, when they sat at a higher place, they had a wide view. They knew almost everything about the major families and sects below them.
It was Yan Fei's first time seeing such a big scene. He was very curious about everything. He stood next to Zhang Fann without blinking his eyes. He kept looking around, afraid that he would miss out on any detail. Ever since he arrived in Sword Forging Valley, Yan Fei had been observing everything. He had been observing everything carefully because he wanted to know what he had seen and heard here. When he returned, he would tell Ninth Master Lu everything.
Zhang Fann looked around and found that almost everyone had already taken their seats. Many people from sects and families had arrived early. There were even morning dew on their bodies and hair. It could be seen how much importance they attached to this Sword Seminar.
Lee Yiheng smiled and said to Zhang Fann, "This is the Sea of Swords. Every year, the Sword Conference will be held here. Normally, this place is not open to the public in Sword Forging Valley. It only opens once a year."
Zhang Fann nodded. Although it was only open once a year, it was still open to the public. A year. Sometimes, they would even go into seclusion once. This time would pass. Therefore, this time was still acceptable.
However, in Zhang Fann's opinion, it would take a very long time to finish forging a divine weapon. It would take a very long time to forge a divine weapon in a year, but it would take a longer time to forge a divine weapon.
