Novel Return of Mount Hua Sect Chapter 294

Jin Cho Baek tightened his fists.

Everyone in this room must have been nervous, but no one would have watched the game with such nuance and nuance.

Why would he not?

One son attempts to depose his younger brother, who has entered Mount Hua as a rising star of the Southern Edge Sect, while the other son, who is also a rising star of Mount Hua, attempts to depose his older brother, the pillar of the Southern Edge Sect.

Jin Cho Baek had no choice but to look at the scene with bitterness.

Kwang!

They bounced back faster than the two men, who were fighting with swords in hand, and rushed at each other.

Jin Cho Baek bit his lower lip as the two brothers stared at each other across the room. Although the actual skills had not yet been revealed, there was no discernible difference between the two on the surface.

‘When did that child become as important as his brother?’

He could tell Baek Chun was growing stronger. How can he be unaware of his success in this competition?

However, no matter how powerful Baek Chun is. He expected it to be inferior to his brother’s.

He was no match until a few years ago, so it was natural to think so.

Baek Chun has never beaten Jin Geum Ryong since he was a child. Even considering his age, he lacked half of the talent that Jin Geum-ryong of his age possessed.

But.

‘What exactly did he go through, and what did he receive from Mount Hua?’

Baek Chun now spreads his sword in front of him without being pushed by Jin Geum Ryong.

It’s stunning and dazzling.

Jin Cho Baek bit his lower lip again.

‘I’m to blame.’

Talent is not a one-size-fits-all commodity. Some talents shine brightly from the start, while others bloom over time, like flowers that survive a long winter.

Parents and teachers must recognize and nurture talent from an early age.

‘I wasn’t a proper parent.’

He clearly didn’t believe it was possible.

He assumed that Baek Chun could not catch up to his brother. That’s why he was surprised by Baek Chun, which hurt him.

But.

His gaze moved beyond the stage to the Mount Hua disciples who were cheering for Baek Chun.

‘That kid was raised by Mount Hua.’

They accomplished what he could not.

Mount Hua requires Baek Chun, and Hyun Jong, who sat there shamelessly, came to mind.

‘Would I have said something like that?’

Jin Cho Baek tightly closed his eyes.

He has arrived as an Elder of the Southern Edge Sect. If he considers his responsibilities, he should support Jin Geum Ryong rather than Baek Chun.

However, as the father of Baek Chun, rather than the Elder of Southern Edge Sect, he was forced to turn his gaze away from one of his most notable sons.

‘Prove it to me.’

‘What do you have?’

‘What I didn’t notice.’

“Sahyung. Sasuk will win, right?”

“…….”

Yoon Jong couldn’t easily answer Jo Gol’s question.

Of course, faith in Baek Chun is unwavering.

‘Sasuk is different from us.’

Baek Chun was superior to everyone else on Mount Hua before Chung Myung appeared.

Softness, leisure, and even skill are all attributes.

No one did not admire him as a Mount Hua disciple. Even the same second-class disciples gave up competing with Baek Chun because he was so overwhelming.

He is gifted and persistent in his efforts. Closed training was suggested by Baek Chun, who pushed himself to the limit to defeat Southern Edge Sect Jin Geum Ryong.

So how can they not believe him?

But…….

Jin Geum Ryong is the opponent.

Despite being defeated by Chung Myung, he has dubbed the Southern Edge Sect’s best talent in a century. If he is elected Sect leader, he is a gifted man who is expected to restore the Southern Edge Sect to its former glory.

Of course, Mount Hua has been stronger than ever since Chung Myung arrived. But…….

‘Did we truly close that gap?’

That is what Baek Chun must demonstrate. In opposition to Jin Geum Ryong.

“Sahyung…….”

“Believe him.”

Yoon Jong stated firmly without looking away from the stage.

“Have faith in Sahyung. Believe in what we’ve learned so far. We’ve grown in strength.”

“But…….”

Jo Gol interrupted his speech by closing his mouth.

‘Was Jin Geum Ryong also not playing?’

If he had to pick just one true genius, it would be Jin Geum Ryong over Baek Chun.

‘Jin Geum Ryong has trained to the point where he looks nothing like himself from the past.’

Anyone can deduce Jin Geum Ryong’s momentum. He pushed himself to the limit.

Is it possible for Baek Chun to defeat Jin Geum Ryong? Could they have bridged that chasm?

“Sahyung will win.”

Jo Gol shook his head in response to the voice from behind him.

Yoo Iseol had a cold, stiff expression on his face as he looked at the stage.

“Because he worked hard enough to die.”

Yoo Iseol’s fist is clenched beneath her sleeve, in contrast to her casual tone. She, too, was nervous.

Jo Gol bit his lower lip as he looked at Baek Chun.

‘Sasuk!’

‘Win.’

‘Of course!’

The two swords fly at each other.

Chaeng!

The sword falls and collides again with a short sharp metallic sound.

Baek Chun clenched his teeth, feeling the power of his sword pass through him.

‘What kind of internal fortitude!’

He believed he had surpassed Jin Geum Ryong.

Regardless of how much support he received from the Southern Edge Sect, he believed that Jin Geum Ryong could not have a stronger internal strength than himself after taking Chaos Origin Pill and Jasodan.

However, Jin Geum Ryong’s internal strength was never less than that of Baek Chun.

He was aware of how diligently the Southern Edge Sect worked on Jin Geum Ryong.

Kwang!

The thrust force caused a collision. At the same time, there was a small explosion of ki (chi, internal strength) between the two.

“Keuk!”

When he saw Jin Geum Ryong running toward him, Baek Chun, who had been swept back, opened his eyes.

Jin Geum Ryong’s sword fell like a beam of light towards his head. Baek Chun clenched his teeth and raised his sword in response.

Kwaang!

Shock swept through Baek Chun’s entire body, as if a huge rock had fallen on his head. Jin Geum Ryong’s foot kicked him in the chest before he could come to his senses.

Kwaang!

The body of Baek Chun was pushed out of the arena. Baek Chun glared at Jin Geum Ryong while bending his knees and barely taking a posture.

Jin Geum Ryong looks down at him, his eyes are arrogant.

‘It’s always been that way.’

Such an exchange has occurred numerous times.

And fought numerous times.

But the outcome was always the same.

Baek Chun, who is unable to recover from his fall, and Jin Geum Ryong, who looks down on him.

One difference was that Jin Geum Ryong, who used to express concern with facial expressions, now stared with cold eyes.

“Certainly… you’re a good match for Mount Hua.”

“…What are you talking about?”

Jin Geum Ryong looked at Baek Chun and said emotionlessly.

“If it was before, you would have already collapsed. With a face that was contorted in anger.”

“…….”

“I admit the gap has narrowed. However, no matter how close the gap has become, the results are always the same unless overtaken.”

– I’m still your wall.

That’s what he was saying.

Baek Chun slowly rose to his feet. Then he shook his sword lightly and opened his mouth.

“Wall.”

The corners of his mouth crept up.

“You don’t know, the walls are just there.”

“What?”

“I told you.”

Baek Chun muttered calmly.

“As long as you’re trying to be my wall, you’ll end up being overtaken by me. The wall just stays and I move forward.”

He raised his sword and aimed it straight at Jin Geum Ryong.

“No matter how high a wall is, if you climb and climb, it will eventually reveal its end. I’ve learned enough from some damn guy.”

So,

“I will bring you down today.”

“What a chatterbox.”

Jin Geum Ryong looks at Baek Chun with cold eyes.

If it were him in the past, he would just laugh off Baek Chun’s remarks now. For him, Baek Chun was nothing more than a suitable toy that couldn’t catch up with him no matter how hard he tried.

But now?

Jin Geum Ryong glanced down and looked at his hand holding the sword.

His palms are subtly shaky even though they can’t be.

‘Am I nervous? Me…’ (‘긴장하고 있다는 거로군.)

Against Baek Chun.

Jin Geum Ryong did not ignore that fact. He was neither forced nor self-respectful.

He just admitted it.

Baek Chun became stronger than in the past, and their differences narrowed significantly.

But one thing is for sure.

“Even if what you say is true…….”

Jin Geum Ryong’s cold gaze turned to Baek Chun. It was a cold face, but beneath that expression, there was a strong sense of self-confidence.

“That wouldn’t be today. You can’t get over me now.”

But soon he was full of life.

“And I’ll prove that day will never come!”

Jin geum ryong rushes towards baek chun without conversing any further.

Paaang!

His sword pierced the air sharply. The flying swords split in an instant, creating dozens of Sword Shadow (검영(劍影)).

The clear momentum of the sword is so strong that it seems to rip even the soul.

But Baek Chun clenched his teeth and looked straight at Jin Geum Ryong’s sword flying toward him.

‘Do not avoid!’

No matter how fast, no matter how strong.

He has been through a worse sword than this to the point of getting tired of it. So there is no reason to be afraid.

‘I can see.’

Baek Chun raised the corners of his lips involuntarily.

His body moves before his head can even think. The plum sword he grabbed accurately cuts Jin Geum Ryong’s sword.

Kakakakang!

The swords full of sword energy collided, creating a noise that pierced the eardrums. Baek Chun, who bounced Jin Geum Ryong’s sword, gripped his sword even tighter.

‘I’m looking at Jin Geum Ryong’s sword now.’

A sword that had never been seen before. He was lost without even understanding how he lost.

But at this moment, Baek Chun could clearly see Jin Geum Ryong’s sword and fight back.

The joy that makes his hair stand on end runs all over his body.

But he cannot be satisfied with just blocking.

He takes a step forward and stabs Jin Geum Ryong in the neck.

And he saw clearly.

The bewilderment on Jin Geum Ryong’s face is evident for the first time since he was on stage.

Kaang!

Baek Chun’s sword, which was rushing in, bounced back helplessly.

But that doesn’t mean nothing has been achieved.

‘It works!’

His sword!

What he has achieved!

It’s definitely reaching that Jin Geum Ryong.

‘I grew up.’

It may sound obvious.

He has become stronger than ever before. And he successfully defeated the prestigious disciples.

Everyone can’t help but acknowledge Baek Chun’s growth.

But strangely, it was difficult to realize that fact. He pretended to be confident in front of the Saje, but in the meantime, Baek Chun suffered from nervousness that is hard to say. Even at this moment.

And now he can see the reason for the anxiety.

In the end, he couldn’t really grow unless he crossed Jin Geum Ryong.

In fact, Jin Geum Ryong is still a huge wall for Baek Chun.

‘You can’t move forward unless you jump over it.’

Is it pure ambition? Or is it jelousy? Envy?

No way!

In order to progress further as a swordsman, he must jump over it. Jin Geum Ryong, Southern Edge Sect, and the past!

“Taaat!”

Baek Chun did not miss the victory he had caught and swung his sword one after another toward Jin Geum Ryong.

‘I’ll show you.’

What this Baek Chun accomplished.

After a long winter-like time, he endured and endured, and bloomed!
