In the waiting area, Wang Ye rubbed the sword rabbit’s ear and watched the little guy polish its wooden sword with a serious expression.

It sat up straight and placed the wooden sword in its furry paws, wiping the sword back and forth with its fur. Its eyes were focused as if what was in its hand was not a wooden sword, but its life. Because it was too serious, it did not even notice that Wang Ye was rubbing its ears.

Suddenly, the sword rabbit’s paws paused, and it looked out of the corner of its eyes as if it had sensed something.

A clear, spring-like sword hum sounded faintly as if announcing something.

At the same time, the other beastmasters in the waiting area stood up one after another, probably sensing something as well.

“It’s starting!”

“I can sense the aura of the sword!”

“Sword resonation. As a swordsman, if one can’t even do this, one shouldn’t even participate in this meet!”

“I wonder if my sword bear can…”

…

At the same time, a man walked in and said with a smile, “Everyone, the swords are ready. The meet has begun. You may go out now.”

Hearing this, everyone brought their pets with them and walked out.

When they left the waiting area, they saw the blue sky outside.

......

Under the sky, a high platform stood.

In the center of the platform, the long sword that originally had a banner hanging on it had turned into a sword monument. Countless swords had been engraved on it at some point in time.

The surroundings were impenetrable with countless spectators.

In mid-air, a handsome middle-aged man with white hair laughed loudly, “I’m Jian Canghai from Tianqian University, the person in charge of the way of the sword exchange meet.”

“The participants of the way of the sword exchange meet are all swordsmen, regardless of whether they are pets or beastmasters. As the saying goes, a sword can only be honed in ten years, and a sword heart can only be forged in a hundred years. If you want to become a powerful swordsman, the first thing you need to do is to polish a sword that belongs to you. The process of polishing is also the process of each person’s growth. In the end, the radiance of a sword will depend on everyone’s sword hearts.”

“The first project of the way of the sword exchange meet today is to resonate with the sword. All these swords are unsharpened swords. What all of you need to do is to use your strength to select the corresponding sword and sense it. At the same time, inject your power into the sword to sharpen it. When the sword is sharpened, it will emit radiance and display various effects. According to the strength of the sword after sharpening, your levels will be graded.”

“The highest level is A+, and the lowest is C-. If you do not have a grade, you will be considered eliminated. Of course, there is no need to be discouraged even if you are eliminated. There is still a reward, which is the sword that you have sharpened. Only if the sharpening is successful can you take away the sword. Everyone, please do what you can.”

Hearing this, the crowd was full of chatter.

Some might have participated in way of the sword exchange meets before, so they were no strangers to this event.

Sometimes the meet would be held once a year, and sometimes it would be held once every few years.

“We can even take the sword?” Wang Ye was taken aback.

There was even such a benefit?

He wondered if he could choose a few more swords to sharpen.

Then, Wang Ye thought about it. This was actually quite difficult for the other beastmasters and pets.

He reckoned that the meet probably wouldn’t provide any good swords.

At most, it would be a sword of the same level as advanced equipment. Thinking of this, Wang Ye felt a little disappointed.

“The swords are on here,” At this moment, Jian Canghai pointed at the sword monument beside him, “This is our school’s ancient sword pet, the ancient spirit sword monument. There are many unsharpened swords engraved on it.”

As soon as he said this, the surrounding people immediately started chattering again.

“Huh? This thing is a sword pet?”

“I thought it was just a stone pillar. You call this a sword pet?”

“I’m afraid it’s probably been around for quite some years. To think even a stone pillar can become an innate sword spirit. It’s incredible.”

“I’m from Tianqian University. This is our school’s guardian sword monument. I never thought it was a pet, though… I just thought it was used to commemorate something…”

…

Wang Ye pondered for a few seconds. Since all things had a spirit, thus it was only normal for an innate sword spirit to be born in anything.

Whether it was flowers, trees, or rivers, an innate elf could possibly appear in them.

It was just that their forms were different.

After all, senior Xiao Tao was originally a piece of peachwood.

“The highest grade of the sword this time is an emperor-grade sword,” Jian Canghai cleared his throat and said, “However, all of you should act according to your abilities. Otherwise, you will only be able to return empty-handed.”

“The first project of the meet is relatively free. If you are willing to try, you only need to tell us your registration number,” After saying that, Jian Canghai flew to the side and sat cross-legged in the air, quietly watching. He seemed like an unworldly expert.

Even with the size of the sword monument, it was still densely packed with swords as it stood hundreds of meters tall. Wang Ye took a look and felt that there were at least thousands of swords.

Many of them should be from the past.

The closer the sword was to the top of the monument, the higher its grade should be. Lines of small words were also carved around each sword, probably introducing their origins.

Soon, without waiting for Wang Ye to think further, a few beastmasters brought their pets up the platform.

“I’ll go first!” A tall man with a rugged face raised his head to take a look, then glanced at the sword bear next to him and nodded.

“Roar!” The sword bear, which was as tall as two people, had a body shape like a pyramid. It had a small head but an extremely thick lower body. The cross-shaped steel sword on its back looked extremely heavy, and its entire body was emitting an oppressive aura.

The sword bear was a Supreme first-class pet of the earth attribute, also known as the earth sword bear. They were born with a sword bone in their bodies and would develop special feelings for the sword since young. When they came into contact with the sword, they would cultivate day and night and would only put down the sword in their hands when physically and mentally exhausted.
