Cultivation Online Chapter 531: Underrated

Chapter 531: Underrated

Hey, look! Its the Grand Elders! Who are those two masked individuals with them? The people there quickly took notice of their presence, as the Grand Elders were incredibly influential and powerful people there.

I have never seen them before.

Me neither.

They must be very important if they are being guided by the Grand Elders...

While the disciples there tried to guess the identity of these two masked individuals, the Grand Elders led Yuan and Meixiu around the Jaded Garden.

This right here is the training hall.

They first stopped before a large building and explained, This is where the disciples are lectured and taught how to wield their weapons and cultivate. In other words, its where they are taught how to fight.

Although we dont really use our combat experience in the outside world, we often spar with each other so that we wont be powerless when we need to fight.

It is also one of the most populated places in the entire Jaded Garden due to its purposes.

The Grand Elders then led Yuan and Meixiu inside this building that had many floors.

The first and second floor is dedicated to disciples who wish to learn the sword.

Senior Wang said as she opened the door to a spacious gymnasium where hundreds of disciples could be seen practicing their sword techniques.

The sword is the most popular weapon for cultivators due to its ease of use and its destructive prowess. Thats why we have two entire floors dedicated to the sword.

Yuan used his divine sense to watch a few of these disciples practicing their sword techniques.

Then he noticed something that their swords were enveloped by a thin layer of spiritual energy.

Theyre using sword techniques...? Are these techniques from Cultivation Online or something from your families? Yuan decided to ask them.

These sword techniques came from Wu Family since its their specialty, said Senior Wang.

I see...

If youd like to learn the technique, you can join our faction and well let you learn as many techniques as you want, and we have over 20 different techniques combined, she said with a smile on her face.

I will consider it, he said.

Sometime later, they skipped the second floor since it was the same as the first floor and went straight to the third floor.

This floor is dedicated to disciples who wish to learn the spear and polearm basically long-ranged melee weapons. The Shi family and Xi Family are in charge of this floor since theyre both experts with long-range weapons.

Yuan silently watched the disciples practice this unfamiliar weapon for the next few minutes, as he has only fought very few opponents who used spears and polearms.

The most notable fight he had with a long-range weapon was within the Ancient Dragon City when he had to fight many experts.

Ten minutes later, they went to the fourth floor.

This floor is dedicated to archery. Its a unique and underrated weapon in the cultivation world, and in our modern world, they are usually used as a sport.

A bow, huh? Now that you mention it... I dont think I have ever seen a bow wielder inside Cultivation Online. Why do you think they are so underrated? Yuan asked her.

Well, for one, you have to aim using the bow, and people would rather use something more convenient, such as swords since you only need to swing it.

Secondly, it requires much more skills and training to fully master the bow.

Third, in the cultivation world where most people fight close-quarters, you wont be able to use the bow efficiently unless you gain distance from your opponent, which is easier said than done.

There are more reasons why people dont use the bow, but these are the main reasons.

However, even if the weapon is underrated, it is by no means weak. Once you put the time to master the bow and how to fight with it, it could become an unstoppable weapon, and it would only become even more powerful if you have a partner that can protect you while you fight in the back.

The bow can quickly become a nuisance and untouchable in the right situation and the right hands.

Meixiu silently listened to Senior Wang talk about the bow. Although shed intended on using her bare hands in Cultivation Online, she was starting to have thought about using the bow, as this will allow her to support Yuan from the rear without getting in his way.

And with Yuan in front of her, she was confident that nobody will be able to get to her while she abuses their opponents from a distance.

However, there was one issue, and that was she didnt have any experience with the bow.

Although she has plenty of experience with a gun, she had zero when it comes to the bow.

Twang!

The sound of strings trembling would constantly resound in the room as a little under one hundred disciples practiced their aiming skills on their targets.

A couple of minutes later, they made their way to the fifth floor.

The fifth and sixth floor is the last two floors to this tower, and they are both dedicated to cultivation since the bottom floors are usually the loudest. We also have private cultivation rooms that are completely soundproof just in case.

There isnt anything fancy like formations in this place, but this is place is mostly for ordinary disciples. Elite disciples and us elders usually cultivate at the Immortal Caves, where the spiritual energy is much denser.

There are Immortal Caves in this world? Yuan was truly surprised to hear this.

Do you want to see them later? Senior Wang asked him with a profound glint in her gaze.

She knew that this could potentially convince him to join their faction.

Of course, he quickly nodded.

Then lets make our way to the sparring area. Its on the way to the Immortal Caves. Senior Wang said, and they left the building shortly after.
