Shocking World War Emperor
Chapter 246: Where’s Your Sister?

Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Where’s Your Sister?

Three days later, in Taiyi Prefecture City.

"Master Mo!"

An elder at the southern gate of the prefecture city greeted Mo Han and the other twelve dusty travelers with a clasped-hand salute and a smile.

"Vice Palace Master Xiao!"

Mo Han hurriedly returned the courtesy.

The person who came was none other than Vice Palace Master Xiao Yun of Taiyi Academy, responsible for receiving people from the various academies.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your hard work on the journey. Please come inside!"

Xiao Yun said with a smile.

Under the lead of Xiao Yun, everyone entered the city and then arrived at an inn named Yunqi Inn.

This was the lodging place for the people from the Eight Great Acadacies.

"Vice Palace Master Xiao, have the people from the other academies arrived?"

Mo Han asked.

"Yes."

Xiao Yun nodded and smiled, "Your True Martial Academy is the last to arrive, even the furthest Xiongwu Academy arrived yesterday. Your lodging is on the fourth floor; follow the manager up there, would you? You must be weary from the long journey; I won’t go up and disturb your rest."

"Thank you for your efforts, Vice Palace Master Xiao."

Mo Han bowed slightly.

After seeing Xiao Yun off, they were led by the manager to the fourth floor of Yunqi Inn.

"All honored guests, the fourth floor has been reserved by Taiyi Academy, you are free to choose any room. If you need anything, just call."

The manager said with great respect.

"Alright."

Mo Han nodded.

The Yunqi Inn was quite large with twenty rooms on the fourth floor, enough for their accommodation.

Ling Chen casually selected a room and settled in.

Ling Wu chose the room next to Ling Chen, and the other four contestants also picked their rooms.

The long journey had left everyone somewhat exhausted.

After resting for an afternoon, everyone started to feel reinvigorated.

As night fell.

Led by Mo Han, the group went down to the inn’s first-floor hall, ordered some wine and dishes, and began to eat and drink.

At Yunqi Inn, the guest rooms started from the fourth floor upwards, and the bottom three floors were all used as a restaurant.

They had just sat down when another group of people came down from the upper floors.

"Master Cheng, may the winds be at your back!"

Mo Han greeted the person at the forefront with a cupped-hand salute and a smile.

These people belonged to none other than Netherworld Academy.

Ling Chen and the others also showed a hint of a smile.

The sight of Netherworld Academy fleeing in a sorry state aboard the Flying Divine Ship had left a deep impression on them.

Hearing this, the six core students of Netherworld Academy cast unfriendly glances at Ling Chen and the others.

Cheng Yuan’s expression stiffened for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Thanks to Master Mo’s blessing, it was quite smooth. Master Mo, your students should rest well. The day after tomorrow, the Eight Palaces Martial Arts Competition will begin. If they are not in good shape, I’m afraid True Martial Academy might be stuck at the bottom again this year!"

Mo Han mocked their experience with the Divine Ship being attacked by a mysterious powerhouse, and he replied with a slight mocking of True Martial Academy’s embarrassing record.

"Even if they are in good shape, with the strength that’s there, I’m afraid they won’t be able to avoid ending up at the bottom!"

Su Tong directly mocked.

Hearing this, the students of Netherworld Academy also showed a knowing smile.

However, contrary to their expectations, the students of True Martial Academy were all very calm, as if they didn’t care at all.

"Heh, resigned to your fate, are you?"

Su Tong’s expression became more smug.

Chen Yichen abruptly stood up with a "bang," glaring at Su Tong, and said, "Whether we’re at the bottom or not is not for you to say - it has to be decided through the competition!"

"Have we not competed before?"

Su Tong smiled slightly, "If I recall correctly, didn’t you lose to our Senior Sister Luo Yue?"

The Luo Yue he mentioned was the only female student among the six from Netherworld Academy, with a cultivation at the mid-stage of the second level of the Primordial Pill Realm and possessing the Super Spiritual Body, Ice Spirit Body.

On that day, the opponent Luo Yue chose was Chen Yichen.

"Junior Brother Su Tong, why waste words with those losers under your command?"

Luo Yue spoke, her voice indifferent.

Initially, she thought that Chen Yichen was the strongest contender in True Martial Academy, which was why she challenged him.

Who would have known that he was just a normal Spiritual Body.

He was no match for her at all!

Chen Yichen was furious, almost ready to make a move.

If it weren’t for the Palace Master ordering them to conserve their strength, with the power of the Heavenly Spirit Technique, even if he couldn’t win, he could still have wounded Luo Yue. How would it then be her turn to spout such nonsense here?

"Senior Brother Chen!"

Ling Chen grabbed Chen Yichen’s arm, saying indifferently, "If a dog bites you, are you going to bite back? Remember, we’re humans, not dogs."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yichen calmed down and smiled wryly, "Junior Brother is right; it was impulsive of your Senior Brother."

"What did you say, boy?!"

Su Tong let out a cold shout, his piercing gaze turning toward Ling Chen.

An icy frost covered Luo Yue’s face.

The rest of the Netherworld Academy students were filled with rage.

Ling Chen lifted a cup of wine, draining it in one gulp, then slowly said, "Ah, I didn’t realize we had a deaf dog here!"

"You’re courting death, boy!"

Su Tong’s face instantly turned extremely gloomy, his Spiritual Power bursting forth, his robes flaring without any wind, making a whooshing sound!

How could he not be furious when a mere Spirit Sea Realm youngster dared to insult him, a Primordial Pill Realm powerhouse with a Super Spiritual Body?

Seeing that the students from the two great academies were about to come to blows, the surrounding guests cast their gazes over, watching the drama unfold.

These days, the entire Taiyi Prefecture had been bubbling with excitement, filled with talk about the Eight Palaces Martial Contest.

They naturally could discern the identities of these two groups.

Yet, Ling Chen didn’t even glance at Su Tong, instead turning to Chen Yichen beside him, he asked, "Senior Brother, did you hear a dog barking?"

"Yes."

Chen Yichen nodded, "Yunqi Inn is really something, even letting dogs in. Don’t they know to drive them away?"

Seeing the two of them play off each other, Su Tong was nearly driven to fury, his eyes filling with a murderous intent.

"Ling Chen, cut the sharp-tongued act. Do you dare to fight me?"

Su Tong stared down Ling Chen.

This Ling Chen was merely at the Spirit Sea Realm, just a substitute contestant, yet he turned out to be even more troublesome than the official contestant Chen Yichen?

"Oh, this is interesting. Are we going to start fighting now?"

Just then, a voice came along, as a purple-haired young man descended the stairs.

"If you want to watch the fun, then roll aside and watch quietly!"

Su Tong said in a cold voice.

"Heh, really interesting. To think there’s someone in this tiny Taiyi Prefecture who dares talk to me like that!"

The purple-haired young man’s expression turned cold as he walked over.

"Didn’t you hear me tell you to roll?"

As the footsteps grew closer and closer, Su Tong glanced at the approaching person.

That one glance made cold sweat break out on Su Tong.

"Greetings to Young Master Zi!"

Su Tong immediately paid his respects to the purple-haired young man.

Purple hair was indeed the symbol of the Zi Family, one of the Eight Great Families in the Royal Capital!

Although he possessed a Super Spiritual Body and was a core student from Netherworld Academy, he was nothing in the face of the enormous presence of the Zi Family.

At this moment, Ling Chen’s gaze fell upon the purple-haired young man, a smile lifting the corners of his mouth, "Young Master Zi?"

Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, the purple-haired young man looked over, exclaiming excitedly, "Young Master Ling, you’ve finally arrived!"

The purple-haired young man was Zi Lingyang.

Ling Chen’s gaze shifted behind Zi Lingyang, and seeing no one else there, he asked in confusion, "Where’s your sister?"

At that, the space fell suddenly silent.
