Chapter 2706: Most Stubborn Self

“Lu Ye from Wei Country’s northern Changjiang, and Luo Yuan from Wei Country’s southern Changjiang, this truly is a fated clash!” Bian Qiong’s voice was full of emotion, like a sigh, like the opening of a legendary prologue, making the audience extremely eager.

Her beautiful face was so enthusiastic:

“They are both young geniuses who emerged after Martial Saint Wang Xiao blazed a trail, faintly gathering the destiny of the martial dao————”

Xu San said leisurely:

“Speaking of the Martial Saint, there is even a direct disciple of the Martial Saint in the Wuxian division. Sun Xiaoman, who has followed him on mountains and seas these years, has also come to our Huanghe stage and is performing brilliantly.”

Xu San chuckled:

“Alright, alright, you continue.”

“They are both seated in the Chaowen Dao Tianli Palace, so they can also be considered schoolmates.” Bian Qiong spoke quite quickly, but her articulation was very clear:

“Their personalities are vastly different, their origins completely different.”

“One is an orphan, adopted by Wei Lao, Wei Huai, who reformed the martial dao, and showed extraordinary talent from a young age. One is a child of an aristocratic family in Wei land, became a direct disciple of Great General Wu Xun at the age of seven, and even earned military merits in the Netherworld.”

“One represents a small country battling on Guanhe Terrace, one represents a large country dominating the south bank of Changjiang stepping onto the battlefield.”

“One walks the emerging dantian martial dao, one walks the traditional qi and blood refining spine martial dao.”

She mobilized the emotions of the entire audience:

“This is a contest between a representative of a small country that previously had no qualification to ascend the stage, and an old and strong team of the Huanghe Assembly. This is a struggle between the new and old martial dao, and also a struggle between the northern and southern martial dao!”

Su Xiuxing just stared intently at the commentary stage, appreciating Northern Rose’s profound insights on the match. As for Zhongshan Weijun’s lack of depth, he did not appreciate it.

Hearing this, he couldn’t help but hum two sounds:

“Wei Country may not always have no qualification to ascend the stage.”

Bian Qiong was a host he liked very much. Whenever Bian Qiong hosted a match, as long as he had free time, he would chase and watch. At this moment, he had a slight feeling of not wanting to be looked down upon. He pouted and said:

“Originally if not”

“Brother, be cautious in your words.” A voice suddenly rang out beside him.

Su Xiuxing turned his head to look. This person was seven parts handsome, and in his heart, he first felt three parts dislike. Who knew how much slickness there was in reality, only in the Taixu Huanjing had he tidied himself up like this.

“Brother is?” He blocked his clear and beautiful cousin behind him, then asked.

That person sighed leisurely:

“We are all fallen people of the Tianya, why must we know each other when we meet!” Su Xiuxing brushed the corner of his clothes, smiled faintly:

“Nowadays, the martial dao is greatly prosperous, the dantian rises from ‘Liheng’, Wei Country is thriving, and I also have a little family wealth… Saying this may not be good, but I really don’t count as fallen!”

“No harm.” This scholar-like person waved his hand casually, then smiled and left.

It must be said, this person’s carefree smile was truly extremely charming.

But men ah, being good-looking is useless.

However, after this interruption, he also had no mind to flip through Wei Country’s old almanacs.

Indeed, he should be cautious in his words. Jing Country eternally hangs above, never has an eclipse. Even if it’s just idle words in the Taixu Huanjing for a few sentences, complaints or resentments, who can say clearly?

The smart and beautiful girl Bian Qiong, doesn’t necessarily truly not know Wei Country’s glorious history, perhaps this is precisely a kind of protection for Wei Country, she is truly kind-hearted!

“Brother, we are outside, all speak in low voices———— this person seems very powerful.” Su Xiaodie advised from the side.

Su Xiuxing smiled slightly:

“No harm.”

I came out of hell, who am I afraid of?

“This person is called Zeng Qing.” Su Xiaodie said again.

Su Xiuxing glanced at her:

“How do you know?”

Su Xiaodie smiled sweetly:

“I just exchanged feihe lingguang with him.”

Among Taixu walkers, sending letters with paper cranes is called “Heishu”, which has now basically replaced traditional letter channels and become people’s first choice for sending letters.

As long as walkers exchange feihe lingguang, they can communicate with each other. Or know the other person’s detailed information, and can also write a letter unilaterally. Of course, whether the other person receives it is another matter.

“Ah ya!” Su Xiuxing ground his teeth angrily:

“Girl, you have to be reserved!”

However, Zeng Qing?

Why does this name sound so familiar?…

‘Zeng Qing’ walked in the crowd.

This session of the Huanghe Assembly is so grand, the undercurrents are also unprecedented. It is a time of fierce competition, and also a moment to test true gold.

Invited by someone, he also came as an observer for this session of the Huanghe Assembly.

With his means, no matter where he is, it doesn’t affect this temporary side job. Moreover, the Netherworld has already merged with the present world. Even if he lies high in the Xuanming Palace, who in the present world, if he has news, will be cursed to death with a single word, or hooked soul with a single thought.

But through the Taixu Huanjing, looking at the scene on the stage, it is ultimately a wider world.

He of course watched the match.

On the stage, Luo Yuan was warm and meticulous. At seventeen, he made decisive moves, fortified step by step, very much in Wu Xun’s style.

Lu Ye, who is the same age as him, is even more extraordinary. His divine power is like rivers and seas, his qi swallows like a tiger, and he already shows a few points of a master’s demeanor!

In the spectator seats, the cheering never stopped.

‘Zeng Qing’ slowly walked to his position and sat down.

Noise entered his ears, a surging sea of people.

He quietly looked towards the stage.

He heard people mention You Country in the previous period————

Well, just heard the busybody Jiang Wang say.

He himself never returned to the past. The story between him and You Country has already turned a page, forever without a sequel.

But Jiang Wang went. To prepare for this session of the Huanghe Assembly, this guy walked through every country in the present world.

In many dao affiliated countries, You Country is also a similarly calm one.

The Jinghai Plan has already ended.

You Country’s fate has also ended.

The giant turtle possessing the Baxia bloodline forever sank in the East Sea.

To the rulers of You Country, it’s hard to say whether it’s good or bad——— they no longer need to support a vicious beast, no need to rack their brains to pull out geniuses to feed the beast’s mouth, less a lot of trouble. But this also means they no longer have so much utilization value, thus losing corresponding support resources. What they need in the future, they all have to strive for themselves. The old masters of You Country, with tender skin and delicate flesh, where are they busy?

To ordinary You Country commoners, life from dead silence and calm has become flowing waves, perhaps it will be better? Maybe worse?

The only certain benefit is that geniuses may be born in You Country in the future——— their life’s endpoint is no longer the beast’s mouth, but the highest in the human world, the eternally shining Tiandu City.

Tiandu City is a sun, a big pie hanging in front of the geniuses of all dao affiliated countries.

‘Zeng Qing’ doesn’t care about You Country.

But the match is so wonderful, the audience is so noisy and excited, he can’t help but think———

If there were originally visible Taixu Corner Towers everywhere, there was the Taixu Academy, there was the 《Taixu Xuanzhang》, there was the Chaowen Dao Tianli Palace…

Then the real Zeng Qing, then the former Yin Guan, wouldn’t his life be different?

If the Huanghe Assembly was originally like this, opening up quotas and widely accepting talents from all over the world. That Yin Guan from the twenty-seven cities of You Country’s lower city, who depended on others… Is it possible to walk onto Guanhe Terrace, in the brilliant sunlight, and receive people’s cheers?

Is it possible to confront Jiang Wang from Zhuang Country’s Fenglin City, Fengxi Town, on the world stage?

“Beautiful!” ‘Zeng Qing’ cheered and slowly applauded. A thin piece of paper, carrying the freshly brewed list of the top four of the Huanghe Assembly Outer Court, drifted down to the world, impacting people’s cognition like a hurricane.

The waves of Dao Calendar Year 3933 do not stop today, but today they are particularly surging.

Usually, the top four races of this Huanghe Assembly are all contentions between hegemonic countries. Occasionally, when the drawing is not good and the six major hegemonic countries slaughter each other, one seat will be leaked in the top four.

This seat is also called the “lucky draw”, and it has always rotated between several big countries and regional strong countries.

For example, in the Outer Court of 3919, Yan Shaofei of Wei Country killed his way into the top four, and at the beginning, he was seen as a lucky pick, taking that “lucky draw”. It was not until he forcefully defeated Zhongshan Weijun of Jing Country and advanced to the finals that he proved himself.

For example, in this session of the Inner Mansion, Chen Yanxun, who forcefully killed his way into the top four, also represents a big country like Song Country in the competition.

But when it came to this year’s Outer Court, among the four seats in the top four, the hegemonic countries only occupied two seats.

One is Yu Xianyu of Jing Country, and the other is Ji Sansi of Qi Country.

The remaining geniuses of Qin, Chu, Jing, Mu, all folded their halberds!

The remaining two seats unexpectedly both fell into the hands of small countries————

One is Gong Tianya of Yue Country, and the other is Lu Ye of Wei Country.

Since the Huanghe Assembly was held, the number of times that recorded geniuses from small countries have occupied seats in the top four is no more than ten fingers. Among them, there have been three upset victories to win the championship, two in the Inner Mansion and one in the Outer Court.

But in the past two thousand years, there has not been a single time.

The current world order is already so stable, stable to the point where there has not been one in two thousand years!

Especially Gong Tianya, who directly ran into Chu Country’s Wu Sheng, forcefully defeated him, beat him until his ghost face was broken, his qi and blood exhausted, and in a sense completed the revenge war——

That was the most watched battle in the top eight, and also universally seen as the most gold-containing battle.

In comparison, the geniuses of the Outer Court in Jing and Mu countries both unfortunately ran into Yu Xianyu and fell. It’s quite like the flavor of “the central great Jing suppressing the north, preventing barbarian riders from going south”. That one from Jing Country lost too early, having just lost to Yu Xianyu at the beginning of the main race, and after getting the challenge race quota, he was not convinced and re-battled… thus being re-defeated. The geniuses of Qin Country’s Outer Court were then soul-seized by Ji Sansi’s three guns in the top eight.

Well, at least they all lost to players from hegemonic countries.

Among the world’s Outer Court geniuses, in the most shining four positions, the geniuses from small countries occupy two of them.

This made many people shout “New era!”

Is it that the so-called “geniuses of big countries”

“Geniuses of small countries”, they have never been different. What the geniuses of small countries lack has always just been opportunities?

Is it that the talent system of the hegemonic countries is not so great?

Cultivation is this kind of thing, has it always depended on the individual?

Or is it that… With the rapid expansion of the Taixu Huanjing, with the opening and promotion of the 《Taixu Xuanzhang》, Taixu Academy, and other series of major actions, the huge gap in cultivation between people in different regions and countries has been filled?

Yue Country and Wei Country are so similar, once both rose, glorious

Once, they were also directly hit by the hegemonic countries that dominated one region, their future cut off, and they are now mediocre in the world.

And they are both reborn from the ruins…

The former has become the ideal place for the “eternal reform aristocratic family”, the latter has given birth to the dantian martial dao that is popular in the world.

In Yue Country’s weakest time, Gong Tianya resolutely returned to his homeland, becoming a “farmer” on the fields. He irrigated the knowledge he learned in Muguyuan in the fields of Yue land, and used the sword techniques he learned in the academy to protect his hometown.

Lu Ye also never left the homeland that nurtured him, always in the barren Wei Country, living barrenly, casting copper skin and iron bones with sweat, until he grew to his current appearance.

The era… has already changed?

There are voices asking in shock!

Not just a certain person, but a sentiment that is rapidly forming and has become quite widespread.

“Not quite right…” Bo Wanghou of Great Qi murmured. He looked at the piece of paper in his hand———Lu Ye, Yu Xianyu, Gong Tianya, Ji Sansi.

He didn’t quite understand. Didn’t Qi Country have a quota?

As for the pile of intelligence collected from various places on the table, all boasting about Jiang Wang, like “great achievements are eternal” and so on, she was used to it and didn’t feel anything.

Wang Ge’er was originally a very good person.

Doing something beneficial to the world and being praised by people is very normal. It explains that the common people’s eyes are sharp.

“Where is it not right?” she asked.

At this moment, they are all resting in the Qi Country embassy on Guanhe Terrace.

The top four of the Inner Mansion and Outer Court have already been decided, and the players competing in the Qi Country Wuxian division have also already been eliminated…

At this time, Chong Xuan Sheng, the leader of Great Qi, welcomed a rare moment of leisure.

“Yu’er misses his godfather.” Chong Xuan Sheng just narrowed his eyes and smiled.

She looked at him holding his son, who could barely open his eyes, and reached out to hug him:

“The child is sleepy, I’ll take him to sleep first. We’ll go see his godfather later.”

Chong Xuan Sheng just leaned back lazily:

“I’ll also take a nap.”

In the Taixu Yin Yang Realm.

Bo Wanghou opened his eyes.

Then he saw a fluffy big face close to his face.

He suddenly shrank back:

“Scare! Who are you scaring!”

The magic ape opened its sharp fangs and grinned, laughing:

“Who else can scare you?” He then casually pulled a flaming chair and placed it next to the fat marquis, directly lying on it, and exhaled contentedly: “Speak! What do you want from me?”

These days, he has not been able to relax for a moment.

Only next to his close friend, in this “Taixu Yin Yang Realm”, can he slightly exhale. Although it is only a leisure time for one body and one thought, he also inevitably feels a little happy.

Of course, talking about some emperors’ stories with Qingyu also brings a similar mood.

The two of them just lay side by side like this.

Meteors streaked across the sky one after another.

Chong Xuan Sheng narrowed his eyes, appreciating the beautiful scene:

“Originally it didn’t matter———— if you listened to me, slightly made a gesture, and let Gong Tianya and Lu Ye go down by one.”

Among the various bodies, the most active and noisy magic ape lay there without speaking.

Chong Xuan Sheng continued:

“Now everyone is already saying you have changed the era. Saying you are a well-deserved human race flag, the protagonist of this era. Saying the old era will be ended by you, and the new era will be opened by you————”

The magic ape only opened its mouth at this time, but it was not as jumpy as usual, instead, it had a somewhat solemn and celestial demeanor:

“‘Fairness’ is the foundation of everything on Guanhe Terrace today. If this point cannot be guaranteed, everything this year does not need to begin.”

“There is no need to say these things now. You are like a standard mediocre ruler in a storybook novel, always choosing the middle strategy among the upper, middle, and lower three strategies.” Chong Xuan Sheng waved his hand and said faintly:

“The problem now is———— who is raising such a big flag for you, wanting to bury you here?”

“There is no need to pursue this problem anymore, there will certainly be no answer now.” The magic ape grinned and laughed:

“There are already many people who want to do this——— more who love me, more who hate me.”

“You can actually still laugh.” Chong Xuan Sheng touched his own belly.

The magic ape also curiously patted his belly, one pat, one ripple, and laughed heartily:

“I have already done all I can do, then I will face all I should face.”

Chong Xuan Sheng used dark strength, and with one grasp, he tore open the fur, hurting his hand, but he endured not making a sound.

He turned his head and looked at him:

“It seems this marquis talks too much. You are also quite smart, not completely without prediction of danger. The magic ape is the most jumpy of the bodies, and also the most stubborn. You coming to see me with this body already shows your determination.”

The magic ape laughed:

“We two sit in yin and yang, gaze at the star sea, it is a peak meeting, a dialogue between wise men, it should be understood by heart without words!”

He patted his fluffy abdomen to show that there was scheming inside:

“Saying it out just falls to a lower level for me, making us two not profound enough!”
