Chapter 195: The Arrival of the Snow Condensing Sword 【11 Bonus Chapters for the Alliance】
After casually inquiring around the city, he leisurely strolled towards the Heavenly Man Martial Academy.
Unhurried and composed, he walked with the grace of a deity.
It seemed the competition wasn't over yet, and there were still a few days to go. He had arrived at the right time and could enjoy the excitement for a few days, as well as observe the martial skills of the top students from the various martial academies.
Perhaps he could gain some insights.
He walked with a relaxed pace, his demeanor as elegant as jade, attracting countless gazes.
However, not many dared to approach him.
The invisible aura of gloom he carried made people fear him at a glance.
After walking for several dozen li, he could already faintly hear the commotion from the other side, the roar of tens of thousands of people. Sensing the scale of the gathering, he quickened his pace.
He arrived at the Heavenly Man Martial Academy.
It was located on the outskirts of the city.
Fang Che thought this made sense; such a massive academy couldn't possibly be in the city center. However, this heavenly capital was indeed enormous.
A population of over a hundred million was a certainty, but the exact number was unknown.
He kept a low profile along the way, knowing that the Heavenly Capital wasn't inferior to the White Cloud Continent. There were hidden dragons and crouching tigers here, and he had no idea what was concealed among the common folk. It was better to stay low-key, so he proceeded smoothly.
Upon entering the Heavenly Man Martial Academy, he was surprisingly allowed in without any trouble.
It seemed there were quite a few students from various martial academies.
Fang Che easily found the arena and saw that it was surrounded by a sea of people. Many were perched in trees, holding long-range telescopes to watch.
"It's so lively."
Fang Che quietly squeezed into the crowd, blending in like a drop of water merging into the ocean.
As he pushed forward, someone turned around in annoyance, and Fang Che responded with a smile.
Seeing such a handsome young man smiling kindly, the person who had been squeezed responded with a smile as well, and they stepped aside, allowing him to pass smoothly. He smiled again and continued on...
If there was a girl in front, it would be even easier.
Fang Che squeezed forward, and the person in front turned around angrily. Fang Che threw a campus belle smile at them, and they immediately blushed, stepping aside and even striking up a conversation: "You... want to get through?"
"Yes, I can't see clearly from here."
"Then you should move from this side... let the people in front make way..."
"Thank you, senior sister."
"You're welcome... what's your name, junior brother? Which academy are you from?"
"..."
Damn this handsome face.
Fang Che sighed in his heart, cursing this appearance-obsessed society while enjoying his own advantages. With his good looks, he was unstoppable. Soon, he squeezed his way to the front rows.
Currently, it was the finals of the fourth-year students.
After the fourth-year finals, it would be the first-year finals. The order wasn't sequential but determined by drawing lots.
Fang Che quietly squatted down among the crowd.
In the fourth-year finals, the White Cloud Martial Academy faced the Heavenly Man Martial Academy for the champion and runner-up titles.
The intense battle lasted for over half a day.
The White Cloud Martial Academy was defeated and settled for the runner-up position, while the Heavenly Man Martial Academy claimed the championship.
Fang Che shook his head.
The students from the Heavenly Man Martial Academy were clearly more advanced in their cultivation, and this battle was basically one-sided.
The students from the White Cloud Martial Academy were evidently a level higher in overall quality than those from the other academies, but compared to the Heavenly Man Martial Academy, there was still a noticeable gap.
Huang Yifan, the leader of the team, led the five disheartened students away. Despite their disappointment, their faces remained determined.
"Seeing the gap is good. Go back and work hard. We'll win it back next year!"
"Yes, Headmaster."
Several people's eyes lit up.
They all thought of Wu Zhi Bing's senior's fierce battle from before.
Although it was only a semifinal match, they had faced the Heavenly Man Martial Academy. After defeating them and advancing to the finals, the championship was practically guaranteed for the White Cloud Martial Academy.
Wu Zhi Bing's senior had consecutively lost to the Heavenly Man Martial Academy for four years! It was only in this final year that he turned the tables.
If Wu Zhi Bing could do it, so could they!
After a short rest, someone inspected the arena, reinforcing it. Others were cleaning the bloodstains.
The referees changed.
The first-year finals officially began.
Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted, startling Fang Che.
"Celestial Sovereign Team! Celestial Sovereign Team! Celestial Sovereign Team!"
Fang Che stared, then almost burst out laughing.
These kids had been cheering non-stop lately.
But on the other side, there was also frenzied shouting: "Heavenly Man! Heavenly Man! We must beat White Cloud!"
Both sides were shouting at the top of their lungs, and the people around Fang Che were also chanting, "Heavenly Man! We must beat White Cloud!"
Fang Che, standing among them, didn't join in. Immediately, two people nearby angrily poked him with their fingers and shouted in his ear, "Why don't you shout?"
Fang Che then shouted, "Celestial Sovereign Team! Celestial Sovereign Team!"
Instantly, several people around him had black lines on their faces.
What's a donkey doing in a flock of sheep?
With Fang Che's shout, not only did he fail to boost the momentum, but he also disrupted the rhythm, almost causing others to join him.
"Senior, I'm from the White Cloud Martial Academy."
"Several girls immediately understood and said, 'Oh, oh, oh, you're from White Cloud, so it's fine, haha... We can't let you guys from White Cloud shout 'Heavenly Man', hehe, or you'll be beaten to death when you get back, honk honk honk...'
The girls themselves couldn't help but laugh, sounding like geese.
The boys on the side were left in disarray by the wind. 'What's so funny about what they just said? I don't get it.'
Suddenly, several girls came over and casually pushed a few boys aside, saying, 'Junior, what year are you from White Cloud?'
In the process, they had secured a seat for Fang Che.
Then, the girls also grabbed a few seats and sat down right next to Fang Che.
The leading senior sister spoke solemnly, 'Since our junior brother from White Cloud has come to spectate, we should be good hosts and not let it be said that we from Heavenly Man Martial Academy are not hospitable. What's your name, junior brother? I'm Yu, the Yu of flawless white jade.'"
Fang Che rubbed his nose and said, 'My surname is Fang, Fang, like a square piece of wood.'
'Honk honk honk...'
The girls laughed again.
The boys, looking flustered, were pushed aside as the girls shouted their slogan. They were flirting with the boys... No, hitting on the guys... Wait, that's not right either, they're... teasing these good-looking boys?
Fang Che effortlessly handled the girls, and soon they were all chatting and laughing together.
The surroundings were filled with fragrant scents, and soft, sweet voices filled the air.
Fang Che was satisfied.
The environment had improved so much. Just a moment ago, a group of boys were farting non-stop. Now, the atmosphere was much more pleasant and fragrant.
The two small flags on the stage were waved.
Instantly, the whistling around them stopped.
The five-person team from Heavenly Man Martial Academy took the lead in sending out their first competitor.
It was none other than their captain, Snow Ten Thousand Generations. And from White Cloud Martial Academy, Yu Zhongge also stepped forward.
The two captains drew lots for their teammates.
This was the first time these two teams met in a major competition.
Snow Ten Thousand Generations' face showed a hint of strangeness as he said calmly, 'Is it you?'
Yu Zhongge smiled and said, 'Big Brother Snow.'
Snow Ten Thousand Generations nodded and said, 'Let's draw the lots.'
The lot box was placed on the table.
Snow Ten Thousand Generations reached into White Cloud Martial Academy's lot box and drew a lot, saying, 'Ding Zheran?'
Yu Zhongge reached into Heavenly Man Martial Academy's lot box, praying silently in his heart. He drew a lot and took a look, 'Shen Changshan?'
Snow Ten Thousand Generations' face remained calm as he said, 'It's him.'
The first match was between Ding Zheran and Shen Changshan.
They drew lots for all five matches.
Yu Zhongge versus Zhu Jianghai.
Mo Gaiyun versus Lu Youlin.
Qiu Yunshang versus An Yunxue.
The unluckiest one was Jing Shuanggao, who was up against Snow Ten Thousand Generations.
Five matches.
Snow Ten Thousand Generations took a look at the matchups and sighed with some regret.
Yu Zhongge said, 'You don't have to worry. You should be able to fight until the end.'
Snow Ten Thousand Generations replied with disappointment, 'Not necessarily.'
He felt that he probably wouldn't get a chance to fight.
Just looking at the lineups made it clear.
Shen Changshan was a five-star General, and Ding Zheran was a four-star General.
Yu Zhongge was a four-star General at the peak, and Zhu Jianghai was a five-star General in the middle.
Mo Gaiyun was a four-star General at the peak, and Lu Youlin was a four-star General.
Qiu Yunshang was a four-star General, and An Yunxue was a five-star General at the peak.
Jing Shuanggao was a four-star General, but Snow Ten Thousand Generations was a seven-star General.
Whether it was the overall strength or individual cultivation levels, Heavenly Man Martial Academy was overwhelmingly superior to White Cloud Martial Academy.
This battle was basically impossible to win.
No wonder Snow Ten Thousand Generations sighed. It was even possible for them to win the first three matches and end the competition. Even if one match was forced into a draw, by the fourth match, it should be over.
At this moment, Fang Che was also watching the arena, listening to the senior sisters beside him introduce the strengths of Heavenly Man Martial Academy's five-person team.
The more Fang Che listened, the worse he felt.
If he were to fight, with his current strength, he could defeat all five opponents within a few moves.
It wouldn't be much more difficult than cutting melons and vegetables.
However, the problem was... he couldn't participate.
He was excluded.
And compared to their opponents, Mo Gaiyun and the other four were a whole level behind!
Fang Che sighed inwardly.
It seemed that Mo Gaiyun and the others were about to face a historic crushing defeat.
He couldn't help but feel a bit suffocated. 'I've come all this way, and now you're making me watch a humiliating defeat?
The first match was about to begin.
Just then, a cold sword intent suddenly enveloped the entire Capital.
The sun had just risen, and its rays shone in all directions.
But as soon as the sword intent appeared, it seemed to infuse the sunlight with a sharp aura, and everyone felt as if they were being pricked by needles, as if the sunlight had turned into countless sword auras.
The rays shone sharply on everyone.
In Heavenly Man Martial Academy, countless powerful figures rose into the air, facing the East.
They saluted in unison, 'We welcome the arrival of Lord Snow Condensing Sword at Heavenly Man Martial Academy!'
The legendary Lord of Snow Condensing Sword was coming to witness the Martial Academy's major competition, and the news had spread far and wide.
But Lord Snow Condensing Sword hadn't shown up.
Everyone thought it was just a rumor, but they hadn't expected that, just as the competition was about to end, this Lord Snow Condensing Sword would finally arrive.
Under everyone's gaze, a white figure suddenly appeared in the direction of the rising sun.
He appeared abruptly, blocking the sunlight and turning into a dark shadow.
The sword aura instantly raged across heaven and earth, displaying the unparalleled majesty of a sword lord.
The sharp aura traversed the heavens, and the sword tip pierced the autumn sky; fighting alone outside the heavenly gate, he was graceful and unrestrained!
