“Call reinforcements!”
Hearing Chen Guanzi’s words, Cao Bai did not waste any time. He immediately opened his palm, and a sword token shot straight into the sky!
Hum!
A resounding sword cry instantly echoed throughout the entire Sword Sect!
Soon, hundreds of sword lights rose from various parts of the Sword Sect and rushed toward the sword hall. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of sword cultivators appeared in front of Chen Guanzi. Everyone bowed together. “Greetings, Eldest Senior Brother!”
Ye Guan glanced over and felt shocked!
Among this group of sword cultivators, there were actually more than a hundred Great Sword Immortals. Ordinary Sword Immortals numbered over two hundred. The rest were at least Sword Saints!
Beyond that, there were fully six Sword Emperors. Adding Cao Bai, Yuan Gong, and Qin Xue, the Sword Sect had a total of nine Sword Emperors!
And Eldest Senior Brother was a quasi Great Sword Emperor. His strength was far beyond what an ordinary Sword Emperor could match!
This lineup was simply invincible!
Chen Guanzi suddenly said, “Move out!”
As his voice fell, he turned into a streak of sword light and soared into the sky!
In the area, all the sword cultivators also transformed into streaks of sword light and rose up!
Hundreds of sword cultivators headed toward the life-and-death platform!
The life-and-death platform of Guanxuan Academy was located on Trial Peak. It was not the Trial Peak of the Central Divine Continent, but the one belonging to Guanxuan Academy. The entire mountain soared into the clouds. At the top of the peak floated a massive life-and-death platform that stretched a hundred thousand metres in both length and width. The four corners of the platform were firmly locked by four enormous iron chains, each hundreds of metres long. The other ends of the chains disappeared into the clouds and were tightly sealed by four grand formations.
Around the life-and-death platform stood hundreds of towering stone pillars, each hundreds of metres wide. At this moment, every single pillar was packed with people!
On the leading pillar to the left stood a group from the Martial Court, numbering several thousand. At their head was not the Martial Court’s chief Chen Ge, but Lu Tian!
The moment he decided to accept the challenge, he had become the undisputed leader in the hearts of all Martial Court students!
At that moment, hundreds of sword lights shot in from the horizon. Soon, the hundreds of sword lights landed on the stone pillars opposite Lu Tian and the others. At their head was none other than Eldest Senior Brother Chen Guanzi!
Lu Tian’s gaze landed directly on Chen Guanzi. A smile played on his face!
Ye Guan glanced at Lu Tian. The aura of this fated one was now so deep it was impossible to fathom!
Just then, streaks of flowing light suddenly appeared in the sky. Soon, these lights slowly descended onto the stone pillars behind Lu Tian and his group!
These were students from the various courts of Guanxuan Academy. In addition, there were also many children from great families and sects!
More and more flowing lights kept arriving in the sky, but they all landed on Lu Tian’s side!
In just a moment, tens of thousands more people stood behind Lu Tian, while the Sword Sect side still had only those few hundred!
In terms of numbers, the Sword Sect was far outnumbered!
At that moment, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared behind the Sword Sect group. Seeing this, everyone was stunned.
Ye Guan looked toward those dozen or so people. The leading man cupped his fists. “Brother Ye, I am Ye Ming, a member of the Ye family from Qingzhou!”
The Ye family of Qingzhou!
Ye Guan was slightly surprised. Then he cupped his fists in return. “Brother Ye Ming, thank you!”
He knew that right now this was equivalent to choosing a side!
And those who had the courage to stand on their side were truly offering help in time of need!
Ye Ming smiled. “No need to be polite!”
Just then, several thousand people suddenly appeared in the sky. When everyone saw these thousands, both sides were stunned!
Ye Guan looked toward those thousands. His eyes were full of confusion. Cao Bai suddenly said, “People from the Literary Court! In the past, Miss Ye Guanzhi was their leader. Now that she is imprisoned, they are like dragons without a head!”
Dragons without a head!
At that moment, among the Literary Court students, the leading man suddenly looked toward Ye Guan. “Are you Ye Guan?”
Ye Guan nodded. “Yes!”
The man sized up Ye Guan, then nodded. “As expected of someone the chief favoured. Very good! Today, our Literary Court stands with you!”
With that, he directly led the several thousand people to land on the stone pillars behind Ye Guan and the others!
Even with the addition of the Ye family and the Literary Court, compared to Lu Tian’s side, the Sword Sect group was still vastly outnumbered!
Moreover, more and more people kept joining the fated one’s side!
In a short time, hundreds of thousands stood behind Lu Tian!
While on Ye Guan’s side, they did not even have ten thousand!
In terms of sheer numbers, they were completely crushed!
But in terms of momentum, the Sword Sect showed no weakness at all!
More and more people were rushing over!
And those who arrived all went behind the fated one.
Although the fated one’s side grew larger and larger, the sword cultivators on the Sword Sect side showed not the slightest fear. In their eyes there was only battle intent!
The most battle-capable sect in Guanxuan Academy!
At that moment, dragon roars suddenly rang out from the sky. Immediately after, hundreds of Heavenly Dragons appeared above everyone’s heads. Terrifying dragon might continuously swept downward!
Seeing these Heavenly Dragons, the corners of the fated one’s mouth curled upward slightly. It seemed the Heavenly Dragon Clan had been persuaded by his teacher!
But just then, the leading Heavenly Dragon suddenly turned into a streak of light and landed beside Ye Guan!
It was Ao Qianqian!
Ao Qianqian looked at Ye Guan and smiled gently. “Young Master Ye, long time no see!”
Ye Guan smiled. “Miss Qianqian, it has been a while!”
Ao Qianqian blinked. “I could only bring a few hundred dragons. Please do not think it is too few!”
Ye Guan smiled faintly. “Thank you!”
Ao Qianqian waved her hand. Those Heavenly Dragons immediately transformed into human form and landed on the stone pillars behind Ye Guan and the others!
Seeing this, Lu Tian’s face instantly turned cold. He stared at Ao Qianqian. “Miss Qianqian, is this the choice of your Heavenly Dragon Clan?”
Ao Qianqian smiled slightly. “Yes!”
Lu Tian nodded and gave a light laugh. “Good, very good!”
His voice was calm, but everyone could feel his anger!
Just then, Ye Guan suddenly turned into a streak of sword light and landed on the life-and-death platform. He looked up at Lu Tian and smiled. “Back on that day I failed to kill you. What a pity. Come on, no need to wait two months. Let us settle it right now. How about it?”
Settle it early!
Lu Tian was about to speak when a voice suddenly descended from the sky. “Are you really that good at fighting?”
Crack!
Space-time split open, and a young man slowly walked out!
“Senior Brother Wuming!”
In the crowd, a Martial Court student suddenly cried out in surprise!
The third-ranked on the Martial Ranking!
In the Martial Court there was a Martial Ranking based on strength. Wuming ranked third!
Several years ago he had left the academy and gone to the legendary Void Truth world. No one had expected him to return now!
Seeing Wuming’s return, the Martial Court disciples behind Lu Tian immediately erupted with excitement!
Wuming landed ten metres in front of Ye Guan. He stared at Ye Guan with icy eyes. “Is your Sword Sect not looking for a fight? Come then. I will be first. A life-and-death battle!”
“Fight!”
At that moment, the Martial Court students behind Lu Tian roared in unison. Behind them, the children of great families and sects also joined in and roared together!
“Fight!”
The sound was like rolling thunder, soaring into the clouds and shaking heaven and earth!
Ye Guan turned to Cao Bai. “Brother Cao, for a life-and-death battle on the platform, is there any procedure we need to follow?”
Cao Bai replied, “No procedure needed. Once you step onto the life-and-death platform, it is automatically a life-and-death battle!”
Ye Guan nodded. He looked toward Wuming. Suddenly, he vanished from his spot!
Sizzle!
A streak of sword light flashed through the area!
The speed was so fast that countless people in the crowd could not follow it!
Seeing Ye Guan’s speed so astonishing, Wuming’s eyes immediately narrowed. A flash of shock passed through them. He had not expected this sword cultivator in front of him to be so fast. Not daring to be careless, he suddenly took a step back. With that step, his body became illusory!
Sizzle!
Ye Guan actually struck empty air!
The instant he missed, a figure suddenly appeared behind Ye Guan. Yet Ye Guan did not turn around. At the same time, a sword appeared silently behind that figure!
That sword was the real killing move!
Wuming’s pupils suddenly contracted. He had not expected the young man in front of him to predict his move. Not daring to be careless, he slammed both hands downward.
Boom!
In an instant, the space around him turned into a cage that protected him!
Sizzle!
Ye Guan’s sword pierced into the spatial cage. Its speed instantly slowed. At that moment, Wuming had already appeared dozens of metres to the right. But the moment he stopped, the space between his brows cracked open, and a sword thrust out!
Wuming was horrified. He slammed both hands forward. Golden light flashed on his arms!
Boom!
With that clap, he caught Ye Guan’s flying sword. But at that moment, the space above his head cracked open, and another flying sword stabbed downward!
Wuming’s pupils shrank to pinpoints. He suddenly stomped the ground hard with his right foot. “Heaven and Earth Dharma Form!”
Boom!
A burst of golden light shot up from his body. In an instant, a massive golden phantom appeared above his head. This Heaven and Earth Dharma Form directly grabbed Ye Guan’s flying sword with one hand!
Heaven and Earth Dharma Form!
A divine ability technique, and at least at the divine-grade level!
But just then, in everyone’s gaze, Ye Guan suddenly walked toward Wuming. With every step he took toward Wuming, a flying sword shot out from the space around Wuming!
Bang!
Wuming’s Heaven and Earth Dharma Form trembled violently. He quickly retreated!
In the next instant, several more flying swords slashed out!
In this way, under everyone’s eyes, Wuming kept retreating again and again, while the Heaven and Earth Dharma Form began to crack at that moment!
Sword cultivator!
At this moment, everyone’s expression became extremely grave!
On the Sword Sect side, Chen Guanzi watched Ye Guan below. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. “Sword control technique… to actually cultivate it to this level. Truly impressive!”
Cao Bai nodded, his expression serious. “Compared to before, he has grown much stronger!”
Ao Qianqian watched Ye Guan with a smile on her lips.
This man had become stronger again!
On the opposite side, Lu Tian watched Ye Guan with a very calm expression!
Boom!
At that moment, under everyone’s gaze, the Heaven and Earth Dharma Form shattered with a loud crash. The instant the dharma form broke, Wuming was horrified. Just as he tried to retreat, a sword suddenly pressed against the space between his brows.
Wuming froze in place!
Defeated!
He had never imagined he would lose to a sword cultivator whose realm was countless levels below his!
Ye Guan looked at Wuming with a calm expression. He flicked his sleeve, and the flying sword at Wuming’s brow flew back to him.
Ye Guan turned to look at the fated one. He snarled, “No need to wait two months. I want to bury you right now. Get down here, hurry up!”
Everyone: “…”
Brothers, the old book has ended.
Four years, basically no missed updates. Now I want to take a break, go travel with my family, and I hope everyone approves!
