Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 204

Feng Xiuxiu pointed at the Heavenly Temple behind the Golden Hall Square. Beyond the south wall was the Heavenly Temple.

Feng Xiuju said that after waiting for four years, only under the watchful eyes of everyone would there be a chance.

But even with all eyes on me, I want ten thousand people to respect me.

People like you and me need to be looked up to.

If it was in the past, before such a change had occurred in the Martial Arts Academy, perhaps Nie Qing wouldn"t agree to Feng Xiujing"s request.

But this time, Nie Qing didn"t refuse.

The Martial Arts Academy had already died in name. On his shoulders, he carried the glory and pride of the entire Martial Arts Academy.

""Alright!""

Nie Qing only nodded his head and indifferently replied with a single word.

Feng Xian said, ""Then follow me.""

His body floated away from the arena and charged towards the south gate, with Nie Qing following closely behind.

The two of them left one after the other, and the surrounding people suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Seeing them heading towards the south gate, the imperial guards also became nervous.

Mu Changyan straightened her back, her eyes twinkling. ""Don"t stop them!""

The Imperial Guards and imperial guards on the city wall had no choice but to prepare for battle, but they did not make a move.

The two of them climbed over the high wall and directly entered Empyrean Terminus Palace. The people outside couldn"t help but cry out in alarm.

An Zhe frowned slightly, thinking to himself, what is Feng Xiuzhu trying to do?

He would never act impulsively to someone who had reached such a high level.

He should have predicted that Nie Qing would definitely go with him. Then, what was his goal?

However, which two people were too fast? It was already too late for An Zhe to stop them.

At this time, the official from the Rites Division who was responsible for drawing out the contestants rubbed his eyes and said, ""Your flying speed is really high, but if you leave without permission, it"s a violation of the rules of the battle … Do you think I should announce that both of them have been eliminated at the same time in accordance with the rules?""

Hearing him say this, everyone shouted, ""No!""

The plump and bulky official who looked to be in his thirties stood up and said, ""Would this official change his att.i.tude just because of your att.i.tude?""

The surrounding crowd began to boil, ""Give them a chance!""

""We want to see the result!""

""You can"t disqualify the two of them!""

The official snorted coldly, ""Rules are rules. I declare that both of them will be eliminated at the same time from the battle for the championship.""

The leader of the Supreme Court, the black-robed Daoist, strode forward. ""You can"t just declare it so casually!""

""You don"t have the qualifications!""

The official sneered, ""What a joke. Do you think I don"t have the qualifications?""

""Are you too big for the training hall or too big for the rules of the imperial court?""

The black-robed Daoist was stunned for a moment before he glared at the official. ""Just you wait!""

The official"s stomach puffed out. ""I"m afraid of you.""

An Zaixin thought that this guy was interesting. This was a show of strength.

The official from the Ministry of Rites walked back to the box and said, ""Now, arrange for the next match. If anyone dares to leave the venue without permission, you will be stripped of your responsibilities.""

Today I am taking the exam, I have the right.

""The next one on stage is... Great Cauldron Academy, Su Feihu!""

The people who had been shouting had all quietened down when they heard that the next person to step up was Su Feihun of the Grand Cauldron Academy.

After all, Su Feihun and Nie Qing were on the same level, so it was very important for them to stay and watch Su Feihun"s match.

The scene instantly became absolutely silent. If it was anyone else, perhaps Su Feihun wouldn"t have fallen silent just like that.

The chubby Minister of Rites fumbled around in the box with his hand, before taking out a ball of paper and unrolling it. ""His opponent is … the Martial Arts Academy!""

An uproar broke out.

Nie Qing against Feng Xiusheng, and the match against Su Feihun.

What could be more exciting than this?

Everyone felt their heartbeat quicken. This was simply disregarding the continuity of their bodies.

It was unknown what the two people who had jumped into Empyrean Terminus Palace looked like. However, these onlookers would definitely not be able to get into Empyrean Terminus Palace.

Now that Su Feihun and An Chou were going on stage, they temporarily forgot about Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhu.

On the side of the Great Cauldron Academy, the expression of the leader of the group, Su Ju, changed.

He pressed his hand down to signal Su Feihun not to move first. Then, he strode over to the Ministry of Rites official and lowered his voice. ""What"s wrong with you?""

The Minister of Rites raised his head, narrowed his eyes and asked, ""What do you mean, "what"s wrong with me"?""

Su Ju lowered his voice even more: ""Didn"t you say earlier that Su Feihun would only be going on stage last in this match?""

""Now, let him go on stage. If he runs out of energy, how will he deal with the others later?""

The official chuckled, ""You mean to say, this official will help you?""

What a joke. This official has always been impartial and strict, which is why I was selected as the main examiner for the Battle of the Champions League.

If I act according to your wishes, then what qualifications do I have to take the main exam?

""Hurry up and leave, or I will take you down for disturbing the meeting.""

Su Qian said angrily, ""You didn"t say that when you received our benefits!""

The official continued to laugh, ""Who saw me accept your money?""

""d.a.m.n it, the Supreme Court even said that I"ve accepted the money. This official will remove Feng Xiuzhu"s name as well!""

Su Qian said, ""Just you wait!""

The official grunted, ""You"re the second person I"ve been waiting for. Can I trouble you to line up?""

""I will do everything according to the rules. I will not be afraid of the shadow. I will just wait for your revenge.""

Su Ju grunted angrily, then left with large strides.

The official from the Ministry of Rites looked at An Zhe and asked, ""What, are you waiting for me to bring you here on my back?""

An Zhan was stunned, he couldn"t help but feel that the official"s eyes were a little strange.

On the other side of the Grand Cauldron Academy, Su Feihun saw Su Ju leaving in a hurry. He was obviously looking for the Dean of the Grand Cauldron Academy, Su Pei.

He was not in the mood to wait any longer, so he stood up, stretched, and then slowly walked onto the field.

On the other side of the battlefield, An Zaiyue had already arrived.

The two of them stood face to face. Su Feihun clasped his hands towards An Zeng and said, ""h.e.l.lo.""

An Xuan cupped his fist in return. ""h.e.l.lo.""

Su Feihun subconsciously looked in the direction of Empyrean Terminus Palace, then turned his head to look at An Zhan. ""Can we start now?""

An Zhan asked with a smile, ""The opponent you want yourself, is he Nie Qing?""

Su Feihun did not deny it, ""Yes.""

""So I"m standing in front of you, and you"re disappointed, aren"t you?"" he asked.

Su Feihun did not deny it. ""That"s right.""

""Maybe you"ll have a surprise.""

With a wave of his hand, the Iron Pear Wood from Broken Cliff flew over, and the quiver of arrows floated over, right next to An Zeng. It was within his reach.

Standing there, bow in hand, the quiver floating at the right distance.

Su Feihun frowned. ""That seems to be General w.a.n.g KaiTai"s Piercing Cliff Iron Pear Wood Bow.""

""That"s right."" Ang nodded.

Su Feihun asked, ""Why are you using this?""

An said, ""General w.a.n.g only wanted to come to the Autumn Ceremony. If nothing happens to the Military Department, he will be one of the examiners today.""

It was perhaps the saddest thing for him to be convicted of a fugitive.

A person who had fought for the sake of this country for half his life, wasn"t this fate very sad and indignant?

""Therefore, I brought the magical equipment that he left behind at the Martial Arts Academy here. I think … this could be considered as General w.a.n.g partic.i.p.ating in this Autumn Ceremony.""

Su Feihun was silent for a moment before nodding his head. ""The magical equipment you use is not convenient. I am just afraid that you will lose faster.""

The corner of An Zhe"s mouth twitched. ""Not necessarily.""

He raised his hand, and an arrow of fine steel automatically flew out from the quiver floating beside him. An Zhe reached out his hand to grab the arrow, then pulled the bow and shot it.

The distance between the two was not far. After this arrow was shot, it arrived in front of Su Feihun without any delay.

Su Feihun"s body shifted horizontally by a foot. With just a foot, he perfectly avoided this arrow.

He couldn"t see any movement from his body, and his feet didn"t move either. His body shifted horizontally just like that, because it was too fast. The shadow of him could still be seen where he was standing a moment ago.

The arrow flew past Su Feihu"s body, but it didn"t fly back. Instead, it abruptly turned around in mid-air, flying back at a speed so fast that it left one tongue-tied.

Su Feihun clearly did not see the arrow fly back, but his expression could not help but change.

He reached back, his arm curving in a strange arc, but it was just in time to block the arrow.

He clamped his forefinger and middle finger together and snapped the arrow.

In that instant, the fine steel arrow hummed and vibrated. A visible ripple began to spread out from his fingers and around the fine steel arrow.

Ripples in the air blew Su Feihu"s long hair up. A few strands of hair were cut off and floated down.

Su Feihun lowered his head. When he saw the long hair on the ground, he frowned slightly.

""You have made me look at you in a new light. It turns out that you are not only at the same level of strength as when you fought against Lang Jing outside the Martial Arts Academy.""

An Zhan shrugged his shoulders. ""Both of you.""

Su Feihun"s arm twisted back, then he conveniently broke the steel arrow and threw it to the side.

In his palm appeared a longsword, shining like a spring of autumn water.

It was as though the sword itself was trembling slightly, and the tip of the sword let out a faint draconic roar.

""Be careful.""

Su Feihun said these four words, then he struck out with his sword.

His swordplay was ordinary, but it was a simple chopping motion.

There was a distance of at least a dozen meters between the two of them, but the sword light that shot out from the sword instantly arrived in front of An Xuan.

His sword slashed out over ten meters.

An Zhan"s body flashed to the side. The sword beam was like a long whip that was swung down, slashing a deep, straight groove under his feet.

The sword beam fell to the ground and the earth was split open, but this was not the end.

The sword light was more than ten meters long, but the sword energy extended even longer. The stone wall in the distance, which was half the height of a human, was cut open to prevent the onlookers from watching. The sword energy continued forward, and only stopped when it reached the front of the spectator.

With a snap, all of the clothes on the onlooker"s chest were cut in half.

The man looked down, then his face was as white as if he had just died.

In reality, if Su Feihun"s control over his sword intent had slightly relaxed, this person would already be dead.

Everyone began to move backwards on their own. No matter how exciting the compet.i.tion was, it was not as important as their lives.

As soon as An Zeng landed on the ground, the sword beam arrived once more.

This time, the sweeping sword beam was still like a long whip. The scope of control was really too big.

An He turned his body to the side and swept the sword light under He Xuan"s body. It was actually aimed at the chubby and seemingly clumsy Rites Ministry official.

The crowd didn"t even have time to cry out in alarm, because the sword beam was simply too fast.

Pah!

A clear sound rang out.

Just like how Su Feihun had caught An Zeng"s steel arrow just now, that chubby and clumsy Rites Department Official had unexpectedly used two fingers to clamp onto the sword beam!

The sword ray was not something tangible, it was pure cultivation power.

However, the sword beam was like a viper that had been caught seven inches. No matter how it struggled, it was unable to free itself.

The chubby official casually swung his arm to shake off the sword light and glanced at Su Feihun. ""I forgive you once. If you dare to randomly probe me again, I"ll beat you until your mother doesn"t recognize you.""

""If you let me do it again, I promise I will be the star for a long time.""
