Chapter 975: Gu Fan and the Female Sword Immortal
After the stormy weather ended the next day, the sunlight was splendid. Gu Fan got out of bed, stretched, and took a deep breath of the fresh morning air.
Perhaps on a whim, Gu Fan went out for morning exercises, waving his fists and feet in the forest to get a feel for it.
Each punch carried the force of a tiger’s wind, each step was strong and masculine. Imagining his enemy before him, Gu Fan’s offense and defense became more fluid. He truly felt his progress, having reached the realm of a third-rate master.
After a short workout, Gu Fan took a deep breath, adjusted his mindset, and repeatedly told himself not to put too much pressure on himself. His main goal in this Martial Arts Competition was to make a name for himself, not to fight for the title of Martial Arts Alliance Leader.
After a day and a night of contemplation, Gu Fan had adjusted his approach. Perhaps knowing the dealings between Xuanjian Sect and the First Gambling House, he could use it to his advantage. Without claiming the seat of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader, he could still establish his reputation—and let Lin Xi know, "Gu Fan is here."
Just then, a slight noise caught Gu Fan’s attention. He immediately turned around, "Who’s there?"
A slender figure emerged from under the shade of the trees, dressed like a dashing female warrior, wearing a delicate mask. Who else could it be but the Female Sword Immortal?
Gu Fan greeted her warmly, "What a coincidence, you’re out for morning exercises too."
The Female Sword Immortal crossed her arms, "Yes, but I didn’t expect someone else would also rise early to practice martial arts. It seems you take this Martial Arts Competition very seriously, taking the time to adjust your mind."
