Chaotic Sword Emperor-Chapter 32 – Recruitment continues!

The arena fell into a hushed silence.
Everyone watched as Su Mu stood with his sword, their Adam's apples bobbing with difficulty.
"He... he actually killed Su Mocheng and his son with his own hands!" The Grand Elder and Huang Shiren couldn't believe it. Su Mu's growth was terrifying, even more so than before he was crippled!
"Brother, you're invincible!" Huang Yiyun's face lit up with a smile, proudly lifting her head. Now, who would dare to underestimate her brother?
"Cough cough..." But then a sharp pain struck her chest, and she quickly took out a bottle of cold-natured elixir to suppress the fiery energy within her body.
Even though her body suffered another blow, her mood remained beautifully uplifted.
"Sword Intent, he has grasped Sword Intent..."
The five instructors from the Martial House were still in utter shock. None of them had comprehended Sword Intent, yet a teenager had done it, and at the Fate Palace Realm no less!
He was a monstrous talent!
"Did we really make the wrong choice?" The instructors from the first four divisions couldn't help but feel lost and regretful.
"I..." Zhang Heng was dumbfounded, cursing inwardly. Before, Su Mu was just a step ahead of him, but now he had become so freakishly strong.
Did he even have a chance to surpass Su Mu in the future?
"Surpass my ass!"
Zhang Heng cursed in his heart, shedding silent tears. He would be grateful just not to be left too far behind.
"This battle has allowed me to condense ten drops of essence fluid!"
Su Mu inspected his Sword Vein and was pleasantly surprised. The gains from this battle were immense!
The life-and-death pressure from Su Mocheng allowed him to comprehend the third move of the Lawless Sword Trick and grasp Sword Intent, and to his surprise, there was a third delight!
His body shook, and his cultivation surged to the seventh level of the Fate Palace Realm!
"It seems that battles on the edge of life and death are the fastest way to break through." The joy of becoming stronger made Su Mu lick his lips, but then he smiled bitterly. This feeling of having one foot in the grave was not pleasant, and there was always the risk of a real death, which would end everything.
"How dare you commit violence in public!" Suddenly, an instructor from the first division pointed at Su Mu and bellowed, his expression fierce. No matter how high Su Mu's talent was, he was still just a trash Fate Palace. How could he compare to Su Yilong!
Su Yilong's death was a huge loss for them and the entire Martial House!
"A life-and-death battle is either you die or I live. What's wrong with me killing him?" Su Mu looked up at the instructor from the first division, his gaze icy cold.
"You intervene in a life-and-death battle and injure a colleague. Don't you feel ashamed to say such things?"
"Su Mocheng and his son tried to kill me together, and you didn't even fart. Are you blind or has your conscience been eaten by dogs!"

Even facing the Martial House instructors, Su Mu didn't hold back his scolding.
"You, you!" The instructor from the first division was so angry he couldn't speak, his finger trembling as he pointed at Su Mu!
This was outrageous. He had been an instructor for many years and had never been spoken to like this!
"Su Mu is right!" At this moment, Tian Yuyue stood up, taking a bottle of elixir and looking coldly at the four instructors.
"Nobody should interfere in a life-and-death battle, yet you stopped it. That's a violation of morality and public ethics!"
"As instructors, aren't you ashamed to be proud of such actions?"
Faced with Tian Yuyue's scolding, the four instructors' faces turned ugly, but they had no retort. If it were anyone else, they would have acted already, but Tian Yuyue was also an instructor and had the right to scold them.
Besides, Su Yilong was already dead, and if they didn't preserve their reputation now, they would truly gain nothing.
But in their hearts, they had come to utterly despise Tian Yuyue!
Seeing that they remained silent, Tian Yuyue didn't speak further. Regardless of their attitude towards her, she was still a member of the Martial House and had to consider its reputation. The conduct of these four instructors was embarrassing enough.
"The recruitment continues."
After giving Tian Yuyue and Su Mu a glance, the instructors from the first four divisions shifted their gaze. Now that Su Yilong was gone, they still had to compete for new students. The resources of new students were directly related to the strength of their divisions.
The next moment, their gaze fell unintentionally on Su Mu, but quickly moved away. If they were to recruit Su Mu now, it would be like slapping their own faces, and they certainly wouldn't recruit him.
In the eyes of the Su Family's Grand Elder, Su Mu still had hope of rising, but they scoffed at the idea. They didn't deny that a Fate Palace could be upgraded, but it depended on what kind of Fate Palace!
For someone with a third-grade Fate Palace or lower like Su Mu, there was no hope!
In this world, aside from those who could truly defy the heavens and change their fate, who could upgrade their Fate Palace in one go? Upgrading by two levels was already the limit, and even then, it would only be a fifth-grade, still trash!
They didn't believe Su Mu was one of those rare individuals who could defy the heavens and change his fate.
Moments later, their gaze unanimously fell on Huang Yiyun. Now, the only new student worth their competition was Huang Yiyun.
"Huang Yiyun, how about joining my first division?"
"Huang Yiyun, my second division suits you well, consider it?"
Clearly, their enthusiasm and effort in recruiting were not as great as when they recruited Su Yilong. Huang Yiyun didn't even change her expression upon hearing them.
The four instructors looked somewhat embarrassed. Their plain offers now seemed too cheap compared to when they recruited Su Yilong. It would be strange if Huang Yiyun was interested.
"Huang Yiyun, as long as you join the first division, you can pick whatever you want!" The instructor from the first division gritted his teeth and chose to bleed, as they weren't the only ones recruiting. If they were outdone, it would be embarrassing, and the resources they could obtain as instructors would decrease.
"Whatever you want, my second division can also provide!"
"My third division is absolutely the best fit for you. Whatever conditions they can offer, my third division can match!"
After they finished speaking, Huang Yiyun still had no reaction, not even glancing at them, but instead turned to look at Su Mu, who was stepping onto the arena.
"Brother, which division will you join? I'll join whichever one you join."
The instructors from the first four divisions turned to Su Mu in unison, their expressions changing. Tian Yuyue was extremely nervous. Now, the choice was in Su Mu's hands, and his word could directly determine the success or failure of their recruitment.
"What should we do?" The instructors from the first four divisions became incredibly conflicted. Now, it seemed they had no choice but to recruit Su Mu, but wouldn't that be slapping their own faces? And in front of so many people.
But if they didn't recruit him, not only would they miss out on Huang Yiyun, but they also wouldn't be able to recruit any of the Huang Family's members. And with Su Mu's popularity, others might also choose not to join their divisions!
"Damn it!"
The instructors from the first four divisions bowed their heads and cursed under their breath. They had never been so passive, nor had they ever had to lose face over a young man!
"Do we really have to recruit him?"
"If we don't recruit him, we won't be able to explain ourselves when we return. You know how dire the consequences will be."
"That kid definitely won't join us. We might have to beg him to do so."
"Isn't that just groveling?"
The instructors from the first four divisions couldn't accept it. They had held their heads so high before, but now they would have to lower them so much!
