Chapter 1035: Chapter 1035: Earthquake and Thunderbolt

Ling Xiao looked at Jia Yun with a cold expression and said, "That’s right, I do want to gain military exploits and change my fate, so what? Can you stop me? Don’t blame me for not warning you, I will stop at nothing to achieve my goal. If you dare stand in my way, I’ll kick you aside like a stumbling stone!"

Ling Xiao’s words were righteous and dignified, neither humble nor overbearing.

Madness!

True madness!

To dare speak to a member of the Righteous Qi Alliance, Young Master Jia, like that, one must either be foolish or truly impressive!

"There’s going to be a good show to watch!"

"Hehe, it looks like there’s a story here, interesting!"

"Hmph, I’ve always known you’re slick with words, I won’t stoop to your level. Let’s see the real deal in action!"

Unable to out-argue Ling Xiao, Jia Yun could only snort coldly, leaping into one of the passageways, ready to begin the challenge.

Ling Xiao also stepped out of the queue and stood at another passageway.

"Please, Young Master Jia, let me also see the mettle of the Alliance Leader of the Righteous Qi Alliance!"

"Keep your eyes wide open!"

After speaking, Jia Yun’s body shot through the air, and with a loud shout mid-air, the Barbaric Bear Beast on the ground directly prostrated itself, allowing him to mount.

"Good!"

A thunderous cheer came from the Phoenix God College side, all cheering for Jia Yun.

Jia Yun smiled proudly and spurred the Barbaric Bear Beast beneath him to charge forward.

Facing the first, second, and third waves of attack, he dissolved them with ease, as if strolling leisurely in a courtyard.

However, he couldn’t smash the arrows without moving like Leng Mei did.

Therefore, he had to break through the Arrow Tower; otherwise, if he couldn’t even surpass Leng Mei, that would indeed be a joke.

During the fourth wave of attack, a Treasured Sword finally appeared in Jia Yun’s hands. With a thrust of his sword, he shattered two arrows at once.

"Beautiful!"

Cheers rose up wave after wave.

Jia Yun still easily resolved the fifth wave of attack.

This made many people start to tense up.

Because if he could withstand one more wave, Jia Yun would surpass Leng Mei and break the record, with people from Phoenix God College hoping he could set a new record.

People from Qingxu College, on the other hand, did not want him to break the record.

The sixth wave was incredibly fierce, nearly appearing before the fifth had even ended, causing Jia Yun to falter, to the extent that his arm was grazed.

But even so, he still successfully dodged the sixth wave of attack.

"Young Master Jia! Young Master Jia! Young Master Jia!"

The thunderous shouting rose again, and the faces of all the martial artists from Phoenix God College bore excited expressions. Jia Yun had broken the record held by Leng Mei, which was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise.

For this, Si Kong Zun couldn’t help but clap his hands.

The seventh wave was even more terrifying, almost occurring simultaneously with the sixth. Jia Yun used the Barbaric Bear Beast underneath him to block one of the arrows, mimicking the previous contender.

But his performance was much better.

While the Barbaric Bear Beast blocked one of the arrows, the Treasured Sword in his hand deflected the second one.

Although he was shaken to the point of bleeding from the corner of his mouth, he had, after all, withstood the final wave of attack.

"Good!"

Si Kong Zun shouted joyfully, "Indeed worthy of being the Alliance Leader of the Righteous Qi Alliance, indeed worthy of being a student of Phoenix God College, well done, now go and seize the Battle Flag!"

Sword in hand, Jia Yun stood there, his white robe fluttering, eliciting screams of admiration from countless female disciples.

He also looked at Ling Xiao with great pride.

"You little shit should just go eat shit; this Battle Flag belongs to me, Jia Yun!"

Ling Xiao looked at Jia Yun with a cold smirk on his lips, he could see things that Jia Yun might not be able to.

The moment that seemed close to success might actually be the moment when all previous efforts were in vain.

Jia Yun elegantly soared towards the Battle Flag.

However, the next moment there was a thunderous explosion, and he was violently blasted away, his entire body blackened.

Although his injuries weren’t severe, he had utterly lost face.

"What happened?"

The martial artists from Phoenix God College looked at Si Kong Zun with confusion.

This wasn’t part of the challenge that Si Kong Zun had told them about.

Si Kong Zun was also puzzled and turned to ask Lu Chenlong, "General Lu, what’s going on here?"

"Reporting to the Commander-in-chief, I merely added a Thunderbolt Earthsplitting Bomb that is commonly used on the battlefield at the last moment. No army would allow someone to take away their Battle Flag, so it’s basic practice to bury these things around it."

Lu Chenlong smirked and added, "On a real battlefield, the Thunderbolt Earthsplitting Bomb is much more powerful. Even a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist could be killed by it. Not to guard against it and still talk about capturing the flag is simply being coddled."

"General Lu, this isn’t appropriate. Why wasn’t I informed beforehand!"

Si Kong Zun was quite irritated.

"Reporting to the Commander-in-chief, as a deputy commander in charge of troops, I do have this authority. If you are dissatisfied, you can report to the Emperor and have my position as deputy commander removed."

Lu Chenlong was not afraid of Si Kong Zun.

Moreover, he was speaking the truth; for such trivial matters, he indeed had no obligation to report.

If he had to report everything to the Commander-in-chief, it would literally be the death of the Commander-in-chief from overwork.

"Ha ha ha, it seems I was a bit overzealous. Indeed, these young lads do need to suffer a bit."

Si Kong Zun’s mood swiftly changed when he realized that he couldn’t do anything to Lu Chenlong, so he chose a different tone.

Then, he turned to Jia Yun and said, "Young Master Jia, do not take it to heart. The final Thunderbolt Earthsplitting Bomb is something that you students cannot detect and neutralize. Therefore, your achievement is already the best."

"Commander-in-chief Saxon, aren’t you being a bit too arbitrary with your statement? The battlefield is unpredictable. If one cannot even detect a Thunderbolt Earthsplitting Bomb, they’d probably be dead and bones by now! If he had focused his proud thoughts on observing his surroundings just now, he wouldn’t have ended up like this. He has good strength, decent talent, but in the end, he’s just a hopeless cause!"

A cold voice suddenly resounded, shocking everyone.

Who was so bold as to criticize Jia Yun in their midst?

And to directly negate what Si Kong Zun had said?

They followed the direction from where the voice originated.

Dammit, it was that kid Ling Xiao again!

"Is this kid doing this on purpose?"

"But I think what he said makes sense. Commander-in-chief Saxon’s statement was indeed too arbitrary. Hasn’t this kid not even taken the field yet?"

"I don’t think his performance will be better than Young Master Jia’s."

"There’s no use talking about it now. We’ll know once we watch."

A wave of commentary followed, and everyone’s attention then focused on Ling Xiao.

Si Kong Zun said coldly, "You say I am arbitrary, so are you saying that you can capture the Battle Flag?"

"Why not?"

Ling Xiao smiled and replied.

"Heh, now that the Thunderbolt Earthsplitting Bomb has been exposed, you’re naturally not afraid. Would you dare let us reset the trap?"

Si Kong Zun continued.

"If Commander-in-chief Saxon sets up a trap that not even a Cave Heaven Realm dancer can contend with, then of course I can’t handle it. But I don’t think you would be so shameless, right?"

Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
