Chapter 1892 - 1881: Peak State
Although Ao Cangsheng verbally praised Jiang Mingye, his left hand gave Jiang Mingshan a harsh slap.
In the end, Jiang Mingshan was beaten all over by Ao Cangsheng, looking very miserable.
"My hand was too heavy, do you blame me?"
When Jiang Mingshan was carried out of the battle circle, Ao Cangsheng asked him with a smile.
"Actually, you should be even more ruthless so that I can learn more!"
Jiang Mingye, with a pale face and full of bruises, smiled and said, seeming not to hate Ao Cangsheng at all.
A day later, all the participants of the battles between the two universities were continuously injured by Ao Cangsheng several times.
Every time someone got injured, Ao Cangsheng would give medicine to the injured person and then let the uninjured ones step up.
After making a round, the first one got injured and then fought with Ao Cangsheng.
Although neither side engaged in fire, when Ao Cangsheng should make a move, he did not show mercy.
By sunset, apart from Ao Cangsheng, the other 9 individuals were exhausted and covered in injuries.
Besides the pain, they were shocked by Ao Cangsheng’s powerful strength and bewildered by his endless life force.
According to Ao Cangsheng’s request, among them, 10 people had to reflect on what they learned at the Thunder Martial Arts Hall and improve their skills after the daytime battles.
Each day, these ten individuals only had an hour to rest. For the remaining time, they either fought diligently or practiced desperately.
Although Ao Cangsheng was surrounded by these people, he did not relax at all.
A month passed quickly, and as the competition drew nearer, they worked even harder.
Five days before the competition, Ao Cangsheng’s realm finally reached the peak state of life-breaking.
However, due to the competition with the Sky Martial Arts School, Ao Cangsheng did not take advantage of the situation to break through to Celestial, but suppressed his state, still at the peak of life-breaking.
The day of the battle finally arrived, and all the participants who underwent training couldn’t help but breathe heavily.
This hellish training nearly drove them into unbearable pain.
For this reason, these people even hoped for the battle between the two universities to come soon, as it would spare them from such agony.
Early today, a group of people arrived at the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School.
At the front of the team were a hundred Brocade guards, followed by the Sky Martial Arts Academy students coming for the battle.
Behind them was a jade chariot with eight dragons, surrounded by carriages and ten robust men in black by its side.
Behind the palanquin followed a hundred Brocade guards. Such a formation could be said to be magnificent.
The team stopped at the entrance of the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School.
Though the competition between these two universities was a major event, it didn’t attract much attention.
Because of this, many university students who came to watch were dispersed, making the battle scene quite deserted.
Additionally, Leng Shui also considered the appearance of the Royal Family. After all, this battle concerned the reputation of the two universities and who would lose face in the public eye.
To avoid direct embarrassment, the number of spectators was reduced.
"Baili Chuanqiong greets President Shui, and you seniors!"
Before taking the stage, Baili Chuanqiong first went to Shui Linghan and others, assuming a posture of respect to the elders.
Shui Linghan apologized with a smile: "I don’t know if His Highness is present right now, but I couldn’t come personally to meet you. I hope His Highness won’t be offended."
Baili Chuanqiong waved his hand. "President Shui smiled. He’s just a junior, how could he trouble President Shui to meet him personally!"
With these words, Shui Linghan didn’t continue to be polite. He glanced lightly at the people behind Baili Chuanqiong and said, "There, the ten people should be disciples from the Sky Martial Arts Academy!"
Baili Chuanqiong nodded: "Yes! Those in blue clothes are disciples of Celestial. Those in blue are disciples of life-breaking."
With Baili Chuanqiong’s explanation, everyone’s gaze in the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School fell on those ten disciples.
But for some reason, many people frowned slightly after seeing these ten individuals.
"Elder Yu, don’t these top three disciples look very familiar this time?"
A tall and thin old man lightly stroked his goat beard while looking at the ten disciples not far away.
The elder, summoned as a veteran of the Royal Family, slowly nodded, "Indeed! I know many talents from the three universities, but it seems I’ve never seen these individuals."
"Take a look, the power of these people is not weak at all!"
An old man with purple cheeks squinted slightly and answered with approval, a hint of surprise in his tone.
Under the elders’ commentary, Ao Cangsheng also focused on these ten people.
Having attended a feast in Qianlong Country, he had some understanding of the situations in the three academies.
Regarding top talents, almost all three universities had appeared on the stage of the Qianlong Banquet.
After that war, the other two universities fared slightly better. Only Lingxiao Academy lost a few talents.
According to Ao Cangsheng’s assumption, among the ten people who came for this battle, he should have recognized a few.
Unexpectedly, among those who came to fight, none matched Ao Cangsheng’s expectations.
This strange situation made Ao Cangsheng feel a little foreboding.
He didn’t think these three academies had planned against the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School long ago.
For this, they even used the Underground Dragon Banquet as a cover to hide true talents of the university in the darkness.
They sent some second-rate talents to participate in the Qianlong Banquet.
If that’s not the case, then the origins of these unfamiliar faces in front of us need to be investigated.
Ao Cangsheng had publicly offended Luoyun Valley. This matter had become a hot topic during the Tang Dynasty.
Strangely enough, so long after, Luoyun Valley hadn’t dealt with Ao Cangsheng, not even causing embarrassment for Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School.
Such strange actions did not align with Luoyun Valley’s usual style.
But at this moment, the top three academies suddenly merged into the Sky Martial Arts Academy.
Subsequently, the Sky Martial Arts Academy challenged the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School, claiming to seize the title of the first martial arts school in Tang Country.
If these things were not mere coincidences, then there is joy hidden within.
At this point, these unfamiliar fresh faces made Ao Cangsheng sit seven or eight parts up.
According to his conjecture, these people were not from the Sky Martial Arts Academy at all but were directly sent by Luoyun Valley.
If we challenge the authority of the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School, looking across the entire Tang Country, it seems no institution could manage it.
Even the Royal Family couldn’t achieve that.
However, if the challenger were replaced by Luoyun Valley, it would be reasonable.
Firstly, Luoyun Valley had a grudge with Ao Cangsheng. Ao Cang is a talented disciple of Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School, so it’s not surprising that Luoyun Valley hates the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School.
This is Luoyun Valley’s motivation to contend against Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School.
Secondly, Luoyun Valley governs seven nations and has countless talented disciples within its walls.
If they want to secretly kill Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School, they have an idea.
"Shui Ling coldly nodded, "Moreover! If Luoyun Valley really wants to humiliate the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School, they could choose any of the three martial arts halls and then send a disciple to challenge the entire Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School."
"As long as they win, such humiliation would have a greater impact than the many people who came today."
"Indeed!"
Ao Cangsheng once said: "Luoyun Valley’s purpose isn’t to humiliate Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School again but to kill off all the best talents from the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School!"
"Without top talents, the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School is bound to suffer great losses."
Upon hearing this, Shui Ling coldly’s heart shook suddenly, and a pair of cold, fierce eyes burst into shocking and astonishing brilliance.
Shui Ling hesitated for a moment and said in horror: "Since Cloud Valley has been prepared for a long time, it’s obvious that there is no need to launch this battle."
"I must tell Baili Chuanqiong now that our Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School will not accept the martial arts hall challenge."
"In this way, LuoYun Valley’s conspiracy will not succeed!"
After saying this, Shui Ling turned to leave.
