#52 - Dragon Roar and Bird Cry
Half an hour later, Wei Changtian happily held two secret manuals, liking them more and more as he looked.
Although the system didn't have a recycling function, preventing this pile of cultivation methods from being "cashed in", he discovered a wonderful use for the system.
That was, it could be used as a grading tool for cultivation methods!
You should know that in this world, apart from the most basic internal energy cultivation methods being divided into "Heaven, Earth, Black, Yellow" four levels, other cultivation methods such as fist techniques, sword techniques, and movement techniques do not have a clear grading.
After all, the power of martial arts largely depends on the strength of the user, so it is difficult to compare which is superior.
It's like two people fighting with different weapons, and the final victory or defeat depends on the person or the weapon?
No one can say for sure.
Therefore, when martial artists choose cultivation methods, they mostly follow family traditions or the reputation of the martial world for stability.
And if they encounter a relatively rare cultivation method, they can only rely on luck.
Of course, this is for others.
Wei Changtian is different because the system has a clear rating for these cultivation methods!
What you don't know, the system knows!
Just choose the one with the highest level!
Happily putting the two secret manuals into his arms, Wei Changtian, who had "scammed" a thousand system points, stepped onto the wooden stairs and went straight to the second floor of the stone tower.
The second floor was smaller than the first floor, and it contained various weapons.
Swords, spears, staffs, axes, yue halberds, hooks, and forks were all available, and many could be seen at a glance to be extraordinary.
Wei Changtian's eyes lit up, and he immediately opened the system, preparing to use the same trick to check the grade of these weapons.
However, this time he failed to get something for nothing.
Because he didn't know the names of these weapons.
If he didn't know the names, he couldn't search, and he couldn't compare them one by one from the vast number of goods in the system store.
Alas, it seems I have to rely on luck.
Sighing, Wei Changtian casually walked between the rows of wooden shelves, looking here and there, his eyes mainly focused on sabers.
Sabers and swords are easy to carry, and they are the most mainstream cold weapons in any era.
Besides, he had just obtained a Heaven-rank saber technique, so he definitely had to make the most of it.
Although swords can also be used to perform saber techniques, but... villains don't deserve to use swords.
After wandering around the entire second floor, Wei Changtian quickly took a fancy to several sabers.
Anyway, he didn't know the specific quality of these weapons, so he simply used appearance as the only selection criterion.
The sabers he selected were all good, at least they looked awesome.
But which one should he choose?
Choice phobia came again... Or should he just take them all? Change one every day?
Forget it, weapons aren't necessarily better the more you have, it's more important to have one that's easy to use.
Looking back and forth at these divine weapons that would be enough to cause countless martial artists to compete for them outside, Wei Changtian suddenly felt that he was like a rich second generation choosing concubines.
The "goddesses" that others yearn for are sitting in a row in front of him, and he still has to pick and choose...
Ah, what a happy trouble.
After thinking wildly for a while, Wei Changtian still couldn't choose.
In the end, he decided to adopt the oldest and most effective decision-making method—
Drawing lots!
Whoever has a destiny with me will be chosen!
"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, catch a tiger by the toe..."
Muttering in his mouth, his fingers moved back and forth on the sabers, just as the answer was about to be revealed, Wei Changtian's eyes were suddenly attracted by two sabers at the bottom of a certain row of wooden shelves.
The two sabers were placed together, one slightly longer and one slightly shorter, both were similar to the Tang saber style, and the appearance of the scabbards was good.
They should be a pair made of the same material by the same person.
Eh?
If I had one, and gave Xu Qingwan one... Wonderful!
Wei Changtian immediately put the sabers he had just picked out behind him and went over to carefully examine the pair of sabers in his hand.
The handles should be copper cores wrapped in wood, with several circles of winding rope tied on them.
The scabbards were nothing special, but they were all engraved with two small characters at the bottom.
The longer one was "Dragon's Roar", and the shorter one was "Sparrow's Chirp".
"Why do these sound so much like sword names..."
Wei Changtian muttered, casually drew the saber out of its sheath, and then instantly understood the meaning of these two names.
The sound of drawing the two sabers was long like a xiao flute and crisp like a whistle, indeed very much like "Dragon's Roar" and "Sparrow's Chirp"... Although Wei Changtian didn't know what a dragon's roar sounded like.
It's not important! The most important thing is that the sabers are indeed good!
This time, Wei Changtian didn't hesitate and made a decision directly.
It's them!
Putting the other sabers back in the distance, holding two secret manuals and two precious sabers, Wei Changtian was now extremely looking forward to what was on the third floor of the stone tower.
Various magical tools? Top-quality pills? Supreme divine powers?
Or the Wei family's heirloom?
"Step, step, step", he stepped up to the third floor, but what appeared in front of him was a heavy iron door that was tightly locked.
"This..."
Wei Changtian stopped immediately, glanced at the iron door a few times, then turned around and left, seemingly not interested in what was behind the iron door.
Just kidding, he had watched so many horror movies in his previous life, and he had long deeply understood a truth.
Curiosity killed the cat, never open a locked door for no reason!
...
After coming out of the "Martial Pavilion", Wei Changtian went directly to the Suspended Mirror Division by carriage.
Then, his appearance caused a sensation.
The last time he pierced Toad Eye with a saber in the Zhang Mansion had already made many people admire him, but who knew that only a few days later, he had once again completed a great feat.
The ape demon with fifty years of cultivation was actually killed by Young Master Wei!
And he also saved the Suspended Mirror Division's "Flower Envoy"!
Martial artists generally don't have much culture, and they don't feel anything about love stories between men and women, they just like this kind of heroic rescue of beauty scene full of martial chivalry.
Therefore, in their eyes, Wei Changtian is no longer the wicked and useless young master, but a good man of love, righteousness, and chivalry!
"Young Master Wei! Tell us how you killed that ape demon!"
"Yes, yes! Especially the part where you saved Chief Xu!"
"Lord Wei! My little sister is fifteen years old, do you think she can be your concubine?"
"Hahahaha, you're thinking too much! Don't you know that even Lu Jingyao, the beautiful only daughter of the Lu family, can only be a concubine for the Young Master?"
"Hmph! So what, my sister is no worse than that Lu Jingyao!"
"Huh?"
Wei Changtian, who was surrounded by the crowd, keenly caught this sentence and immediately and accurately approached the man.
"This brother! You said your sister is no worse than Lu Jingyao?"
"Ah!"
The person who spoke was stunned, then puffed out his chest and said proudly: "That's right! I dare not say anything else, but in terms of appetite, she is definitely unrivaled in the entire capital!"
"Lord Wei, what do you think... Lord Wei, where are you??"
