No one would believe it even if it was said. They would think it was a lunatic.
Because only a madman could invent such a bizarre story.
But this was not a story. It was a story that many people had witnessed with their own eyes.
While carrying General w.a.n.g Kai-tai"s pear bow, An Zhe climbed over the wall and climbed onto the Jun Xin Tower. He shot out five arrows from the back window of the third floor, and no one could change the result of the five arrows. .h.i.tting the heart. Although the first arrow was slightly off center, it was still in the heart.
This matter might even be recorded in the history of the Yan Kingdom Martial Arts Academy, or even the history of the military.
Chang Huan swallowed a mouthful of saliva with great difficulty before turning to look at w.a.n.g KaiTai and the rest.
At this time, everyone walked over, including the new Dean of the Martial Arts Academy.
After Sang Hai died, Yan Zhang Yan and the soldiers didn"t have any reaction to Sang Hai"s order to become the new headmaster of the Martial Arts Academy.
Therefore, the death of Sang Hai Sutra might not be a good thing for the Martial Arts Academy.
But it was precisely because the Empress Dowager was impatient to accept the words she trusted as the new President that the rumor was spreading that the Sanghai Sutra had been killed by the Empress Dowager.
Even if one didn"t like to argue, one couldn"t change this fact.
""Hmph!""
Yan Gui let out a cold humph, ""You show off your character, it"s hard for you to achieve greatness.""
He left a comment of eight words, then turned and walked away.
w.a.n.g Kai-tai waved a hand at An Zai-ying, signalling that he should not be reserved about his words. He then gave a thumbs up. ""Amazing!""
In the entire Martial Arts Academy, more than seven hundred people had their reputation overshadowed by five arrows.
Even Chang Huan, a personal disciple of Yan Dazhi, had no choice but to write an excellent score on An Zhe"s examinations. The other examiners immediately put An Zhe first.
""Next, let"s get on horseback and not surround them. Everyone, get ready. Pick your horses!""
""Sit!"" Chang Huan shouted before turning around and sitting down on the platform with a gloomy expression.
Other than the peaceful dispute, the other nine examinees all went to the stables to pick their horses. Horse selection was also one of the tests. The horses were mixed with mules and nags, and the quality of the horses were also different.
Chang Huan saw that An Zaiyue hadn"t moved, and wondered how this man could be so unconventional and unconventional.
""Why don"t you go?""
Chang Huan asked with an unfriendly tone.
""I remember a few lines of poetry that praised our war horses,"" the gold and jade saddle past the stepladder, the bones of the extraordinary hair.
I know very well what kind of feelings the horse has for the soldiers of Great Yan, so I always have a special love for the horse.
When it"s not necessary, I don"t want to ride.
A horse, born not to be ridden, is a symbol of freedom.
In times of war, cavalry can bring victory, no doubt about it.
But now it"s just a test, and I don"t think there"s a need to let the horse carry the weight. ""
Chang Huan frowned slightly, ""What exactly do you mean?""
An Zhan replied seriously, ""I … I don"t know how to ride a horse.""
Everyone was stunned. General w.a.n.g Kai-Tai"s mouth slowly gaped open before laughing out loud, ""Hahahaha … you stayed in the border army, how could you not know how to ride a horse?""
An Zhan explained, ""Everyone has their own things that are quite contradictory to each other, such as mice, snakes, and... horses.""
""It"s the first time I"ve heard anyone say they"re afraid of horses.""
An Zhan explained in all seriousness, ""I"m not afraid, I"m … conflicted, distressed, and respectful.""
Chang Huan coldly replied, ""There"s no point in talking too much. You don"t know how to ride a horse, so let"s forget about this test. You deserve a bad ride.""
There was no objection to the dispute, so he did not say anything.
Chang Huan had finally found a weak spot and wrote a big mistake in the exam book. After which, she couldn"t help but mock him, ""In the future, you might become a soldier of Great Yan. If you don"t know how to ride a horse, do you know what that means?""
""It means that others have one more rider,"" Anjou argued.
Chang Huan opened her mouth as she swallowed her words.
w.a.n.g KaiTai sat beside her and spat out the water he had just drunk.
He secretly gave An Zeng a thumbs up. ""That makes sense.""
Just as Chang Huan was about to scold him, An Ying continued, ""If I"m faster than a horse, and more agile than a horse, then I don"t need a horse.
On the battlefield, the greatest value of a warhorse is to give it to a soldier who is weaker than me.
Head Examiner, although the big Yan doesn"t lack war horses, it"s not full, so the number of cavalrymen is always around fifty thousand.
Wouldn"t it be a waste to give the horse to someone who didn"t need it? ""
Chang Huan held back her words and did not know what to say. She could only wave her hand, ""Step back!""
An Zhan cupped his fist. ""Yes.""
He left the exam grounds and walked back, mimicking Gu Qianye. The sloppy look on the back of his hand was indeed very arrogant.
In the distance, the examinees had chosen their own horses. After that, they began to sprint forward, each and every one of them in high spirits.
When they learned that they would not ride a horse, a sense of pride rose in them that I was finally better than Ann, and everyone worked very hard.
An Zeng had nothing better to do. He crouched by the side and watched the exam candidates compete.
At this moment, he saw a familiar figure walking in the distance, carrying a box of something in his hands.
An Xuan"s expression changed, and he got up to chase after her.
This was Sang Rou, and she was also wearing a plain white dress.
When Sang Rou saw An Chou approach her, she wanted to hurry up and leave, but she was stopped by An Chou.
""What happened?""
Anjou asked.
Sang Rou forced a smile and shook her head. ""It"s fine.""
An Zeng looked down and found that there was a small inkstone platform, a brush, a folding fan, and a wooden tea pot in the box she was carrying.
In addition, there was a notebook.
""What"s going on?""
he asked again.
In the end, the tears in Sang Rou"s eyes couldn"t help but fall. They slid down her cheeks quietly.
She was originally an outwardly cheerful girl, but now she looked so pitiful and weak. ""They … They told me to immediately clear everything out from grandpa"s things. That room no longer belongs to him, but belongs to the new headmaster.""
""When I went there, my grandfather"s remains were all left in the courtyard. I found all these things and dragged the rest away.""
He took a deep breath, then asked, ""Where"s it going?""
Sang Rou shook her head. ""I don"t know. I"ve already loaded a car, so I don"t know where I"m going.""
An Zhan nodded, then grabbed Sang Rou"s hand. ""Come with me.""
Sang Rou was at a loss and didn"t know what to do. She was pulled along by An Xuan and asked around along the way. After knowing that the carriage had left the back gate of the Martial Arts Academy, she brought Sang Rou and chased after it.
When they arrived at an alley behind the Martial Arts Academy, they saw a few servants of the academy rolling on the carriages. Several of them were still muttering among themselves.
""This old thing is actually so poor, he doesn"t even have a single decent good item.""
""That"s not it. Do you still have the face to be the dean of the Martial Arts Academy? There"s not a single valuable item.""
""What kind of rubbish are these? I"ll just drag them out of the city and throw them away.""
If he knew earlier that there wasn"t anything valuable, why would he have tried to stop that little girl? ""
""Yeah, a f.u.c.king waste of time.""
The few of them were rummaging through things on the carriage, throwing away all their clothes and throwing away many books.
A janitor rummaged through a wooden box and opened it to see what seemed to be some sort of expensive item. It was about the size of a palm and although there was a layer of dust on it, there was still a faint glow radiating from it.
He didn"t dare let anyone see him, so he deliberately threw the box away and prepared to put it away when they didn"t notice him.
Just as he was about to throw the box out, it was suddenly s.n.a.t.c.hed away by someone.
Just as the footman was about to curse, he turned and saw the cold eyes of An Zhe.
""Ah …""
The errand boy jumped in fright before retreating a few steps back. ""You … what are you doing here?""
An Zhan handed the wooden box to Sang Rou and took a step forward. ""Did you guys send these items to Princ.i.p.al Sang through words of reserve?""
After all, in the rumors, An Zeng was a hot-headed young man who was not afraid of the heavens or the earth.
He even dared to beat up officials from the Martial Arts Academy, so of course he wouldn"t have any scruples towards them.
""No, is it about you?""
He asked a question in reply, then said to his companion, ""Let"s go, let"s go. Let"s leave this place.""
A servant pushed the horse carriage forward and An Zaiyue stepped forward to grab the reins. Then, he exerted a force with his arm and pulled the horse carriage over. The horse carriage stopped after a short moment.
After putting down a horse with one hand, the anger in An Zhe"s eyes became even more intense, ""If I"m not wrong, no matter how much you talk, you won"t ruin the remains of a dead person.
He definitely wanted you to send these things to President Sang"s residence, and you think that Princ.i.p.al Sang is already dead. His son is only a scholar, useless in every way, and he doesn"t have any achievements on him.
""You guys can just secretly pull out these things, and plan to find valuable items to keep, throwing away everything else, right?""
One of the errand boy"s face changed, ""You... What do you care? These things have nothing to do with you.""
""That"s right, it has nothing to do with me, but I like to meddle in other people"s business.""
He reached out and pulled the handyman out of the carriage. The handyman"s body fell to the ground with a thud, and Andersen stepped on him four times, breaking all the bones and limbs of the handyman.
""There is no bottom line for a person to abuse the things of the dead. You are no longer considered human.""
An Zaiyue crippled one of the servants, and without waiting for any reaction from the others, he directly grabbed them one by one and beat them up.
He tied them to the tree with a rope, broke a branch from the tree, and drew it round.
After breaking one, he would switch to another.
At first, the few of them were still able to curse when they were beaten up. Then, they began to beg for mercy, and finally, they began to cry for their fathers and mothers. After that, they could only moan.
An Zaiyue and the others were beaten to a pulp, and more and more people were watching from all sides.
The distance from here to the Martial Arts Academy was not far, so people from the Martial Arts Academy quickly rushed over.
Chang Huan was promoted to vice headmaster after becoming the headmaster of the Martial Arts Academy, and the general affairs of the academy were handed over to him.
When he heard that An Zeng was beating someone up at the back of the Martial Arts Academy, he suppressed his anger and rushed over with a team of commanding officers.
Along with them were w.a.n.g KaiTai, Xu Chao and some others.
""What are you doing!""
Chang Huan walked in front of An Zaiyue and stopped him, yelling out a command.
An Zhan put down the branch in his hand and took a deep breath. ""It"s nothing. I just wanted to save some face for the Martial Arts Academy.""
""What do you mean?""
""Vice headmaster, you can ask these errand boy if the vice headmaster knows them.""
Chang Huan took a look at the group of people who had been beaten to a pulp, but she was able to recognize them as the servants of his underlings.
He looked at the horse carriage and the messy things around him, then looked at Sang Rou. He already understood what was going on, and his face turned ashen.
""Bring these disgraceful items back!""
Chang Huan shouted, knowing that he couldn"t lose his composure at this moment, ""The headmaster will let you know the rules of the Martial Arts Academy!""
Several commanding officers rushed over like wolves and tigers, twisting those people and bringing them back to the Martial Arts Academy.
The commoners around were already discussing amongst themselves, and it didn"t take long for even the bailiff from the Fang Residence to arrive.
Seeing that it was a matter for the military, the few bailiffs did not step forward. They asked around and then left.
Chang Huan coldly replied, ""They have broken the rules of the Martial Arts Academy. They have also spoiled the reputation of the academy. You are not a student of the academy, and even if you are, you have no right to teach them a lesson.""
An Zhan shrugged his shoulders. ""I didn"t teach them a lesson. I just... challenged them and defeated them all.""
Chang Huan asked, ""How many trash are you challenging as a cultivator?""
""Why, I just like to challenge people who are inferior to me, is there a problem?""
Chang Huan turned around, ""Take him back as well!""
w.a.n.g KaiTai took a step forward. ""Vice headmaster, there must be something wrong with this matter. An Zaijun is not a member of the Martial Arts Academy, but An Zaijun has a position in the military. This matter belongs to the military.""
He waved his hand and said, ""I will take him away. If you have anything to say, Headmaster Yan, please come to the Military Department to discuss it.""
