Chapter 302: 0301 Cooperation Intentions

A man was killed!

Although the North-South Martial Arts Tournament was a venue for Martial Artists to exchange moves, it mostly ended with merely determining winners and losers, yet today someone had been murdered!

Yuan Zongguang lay soundlessly on the ground, Mei Huiling’s face gloomy as she stared deathly at Zonan.

"Sorry, I didn’t mean to!" Zonan stammered, but his explanation seemed feeble compared to the sight of Yuan Zongguang lying on the ground.

All the members of the Dragon Group looked terrible, as none had expected Yuan Zongguang to be brutally exterminated on the combat stage.

In a flash, Mei Huiling moved and stood opposite Zonan, her hand had already grasped Zonan’s neck, ready to snap it with just a bit more force.

"Hold on."

An incongruous voice rang out as an elder Martial Artist rose and silently stepped onto the combat stage, saying, "This is the Martial Arts Tournament, please release this young man."

Mei Huiling shifted her gaze and said, "This man killed a member of our Dragon Group, I won’t let this go so easily."

The elder Martial Artist spoke indifferently, "Since you chose to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament, life and death should be disregarded. It’s merely a dispute among Martial Artists, and his death was accidental. But your interference on the stage breaks the rules."

Mei Huiling slowly tightened her fingers, leaving red marks on Zonan’s neck, yet at that moment, Zonan’s expression held no trace of panic. He smiled at Mei Huiling, seemingly unafraid of being strangled.

"Please maintain your honor. Those who interfere in a challenge on the combat stage will face the wrath of all Martial Artists, so please reconsider."

Mei Huiling didn’t speak, her expression revealing her displeasure towards the elder Martial Artist. At that moment, everyone’s eyes were on Mei Huiling, who dared to step onto the combat stage and defend her people—her courage and skill were far from ordinary.

Eventually, Mei Huiling let go and walked away without saying a word.

Zonan rubbed his neck and said to the elder, "Thank you for your fairness."

The elder Martial Artist said, "This is a Martial Arts Tournament, not a slaughterhouse, do gain some poise."

Zonan just smiled and did not reply. After this incident, no one dared to challenge Zonan anymore, fearing he could once again become lethal.

The members of the Dragon Group were furious with Zonan on the combat stage, even Si Ma’ao could hardly hold back from attacking.

"Everyone, do not act impulsively. This man is very strong. To avenge Yuan Zongguang, we must not rush," Mei Huiling calmed down considerably. She could have killed Zonan just then, but she restrained herself, knowing that if she did kill him, the people of the Martial Arts community would also hold her accountable, because she broke the rules by intervening in the combat stage. Anyone who dares to challenge the established rules will become the target of public criticism."

Although the Dragon Group is a secret agency of China, its strength is still not enough to contend with the entire Martial Arts community, a colossal entity brimming with masters, incomparable to a fledgling Dragon Group.

As the leader of the Dragon Group, Mei Huiling had to consider the bigger picture.

"This guy is detestable, whoever encounters him next should fight him to the death," a member of the Dragon Group said.

"But if this guy could easily take down Yuan Zongguang, who among us in the Dragon Group has the strength to avenge him?" someone sighed.

On consideration, if a person of Yuan Zongguang’s caliber was not his match, how many in the Dragon Group could possibly possess the strength to avenge him?

Si Ma’ao fell silent, and Mu Chujian also became quiet. Both had observed everything, and indeed, Zonan was not easy to handle. If outnumbered, they feared they would fall to his lethal tactics as well.

If this man dared to kill one, he would dare to kill another, but could this individual, who seemingly held human life in disdain, genuinely abide by the rule on the combat stage that one must not harm another’s life?

Not necessarily so.

Si Ma’ao and Mu Chujian’s strength might be comparable to Yuan Zongguang; their intervention also likely wouldn’t prevail; at this moment, the gaze of the Dragon Group members involuntarily fell on the same person.

Ye Qiu felt somewhat uncomfortable under everyone’s gaze; he spread his palms and smiled, "Do you think I can handle him?"

The crowd unanimously nodded, with someone saying, "Master, in our Dragon Group, apart from the leader, your strength might be the strongest. To avenge Yuan Zongguang, probably only you can do it."

Mu Zhige and Lin Wurou both nodded in agreement, even Mei Huiling was looking at Ye Qiu.

"I only have one request, once you encounter him, just make your move, even if it results in death, there is no need to hold back," Mei Huiling’s expression was very serious.

Ye Qiu nodded slightly, etching this matter in his heart.

Meanwhile, not far under the combat platform, Cheng Tianhu revealed a cold smile, "Die, it would be best if everyone dies."

Cheng Tianhu’s face was filled with a cold smile; since the plan had officially started with the commencement of the fighting on the platform, what remained was to wait for the plan to gradually unfold until the timing was right to bear fruit.

Amidst the ongoing North-South Martial Arts Conference, a dark plan officially began.

An invisible layer of dark clouds had already enveloped the summit of Mount Hua.

The morning light shone brightly, with mists rising, stretching as far as the eye could see; towering peaks emerged, their necks thinly veiled by the fog, revealing ancient pines atop them, displaying an aura of wilderness.

The North-South Martial Arts Conference was still in the midst of competition, ultimately selecting three hundred young experts.

This number might seem small, yet it represented the new talents that had emerged three years after the last conference.

It was still an arena battle; however, to shorten the time, it no longer adopted one-on-one fights.

Up next was a melee to select the top thirty experts.

This meant eliminating two hundred seventy combatants, a substantially high elimination rate.

From each side of the North and South Martial Arts fraternity, a venerable person would mark an area to serve as the battleground for the upcoming fight.

At this moment, among the three hundred martial artists, each viewed the others with misgivings because they were about to battle each other.

There were three large mixed regions to start the elimination simultaneously.

Most members of the Dragon Group were dispersed, only Mu Zhige, Lin Wurou, and Li Xiaohu were fortunate to be placed in the same area; the three nodded at each other, silently reaching a tacit agreement to join forces against the enemy.

Teaming up is common in melees; any wise person would choose to collaborate. Otherwise, fighting alone would quickly exhaust one’s energy, and even those in the realm of True Qi could potentially be eliminated.

Ye Qiu stood within the designated area, looking around at the other advancing martial artists, some had already agreed and stood together, collectively facing the enemies, although they would eventually compete for the ten spots, it did not prevent the numerous martial artists from allying.

As Ye Qiu was surveying the area, suddenly, his gaze stopped on the figure directly looking at him.

Ye Qiu gave a faint smile.

Ye Zi also smiled; her smile was as radiant as a blossom, her white teeth sparkling crystalline under the sunlight.
