Chapter 170: Ten Seasons Sword Art

Xiang Yu delivered a punch that sent Meiling sliding several meters backward. He felt a surge of satisfaction at how he was completely overwhelming her in terms of raw physical strength now. Yet, even as this thought formed, his instincts screamed danger. He barely managed to twist his body, evading an incoming attack by mere millimeters.

Meiling appeared before him in a blur of movement, her sword already swinging downward. The blade pressed against him with tremendous force. Though he managed to resist the pressure, his arms trembled with the effort. With a heave, he threw her off, creating momentary distance between them.

She recovered instantly, spinning gracefully like a dancer before executing a perfect sword technique. The edge sliced straight for his neck. Xiang Yu concentrated his dragon essence on the threatened area, scales forming rapidly across his skin. The blade rebounded off the hardened surface, but not before leaving a deep cut.

Before he could recover his balance, Meiling made another lightning-fast swing. This time, her sword found no resistance, cleanly separating his head from his shoulders.

Xiang Yu’s awareness snapped back to his form in the spiritual sea. He blinked, orienting himself as he glanced at the infant soul still diligently practicing nearby. Analyzing the fight in his mind, he recognized his progress—he had lasted significantly longer against the simulation than in previous attempts.

He could now confidently say that his physical strength now matched that of a peak Golden Core cultivator, but his skill remained inadequate. If he just had one perfected technique, he felt certain he wouldn’t lose to her again.

Sighing, he reset the simulation and selected peak Core Formation Meiling as his opponent. To his surprise, he managed to overwhelm and defeat her in mere seconds. He tried several more times with the same result—instant victory. Curious, he moved on to the early Golden Core version. This provided slightly more challenge but remained entirely doable. _{fr\eewe.bn(o)v\el.c(o)m}

After these easy victories, Xiang Yu decided to return to the peak Golden Core version, but with the usual modification. He edited her skills to match his own. This proved to be the ideal training environment. Their battles now stretched for almost an hour at times. Though he completely dominated her in physical power, she compensated through qi enhancement techniques, creating an evenly matched fight that pushed his abilities to their limits.

For a full hour, he continued this rigorous practice—fighting intensely, then taking time between matches to analyze and digest the benefits. When his allocated simulation time concluded, Xiang Yu didn’t immediately leave the spiritual sea. Instead, he settled into a meditative posture mirroring the infant soul’s position.

Unlike the soul, however, he wasn’t cultivating his mind. He focused on technique research. With his high enlightenment, along with the natural boosts from his physique and phoenix bloodline, it would be a waste not to take advantage of it.

Waiting passively for techniques to appear wasn’t an option now that he understood their critical importance in combat. His earlier assumption that superior strength alone guaranteed victory had been thoroughly disproven.

Entering a deep meditative trance, Xiang Yu began formulating various techniques, concentrating specifically on swordsmanship. He had observed countless sword moves from both Meiling and his junior sister, providing abundant inspiration. Methodically, he analyzed every movement he had witnessed, experimenting and testing different variations, restructuring problematic sequences, editing inefficient motions, repeatedly practicing promising combinations, and brute-forcing solutions when inspiration failed.

After countless attempts and refinements, something finally crystallized in his mind:
