Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Ancient Human Race_1

White Cloud Temple, True Spirit Hall.

Master Baiyun was sitting in the chief seat, with Zuo Leng and Ming Tian beside him.

In front of him were seated Ling Xiao, Ling Yixue, and others.

It was still the four true disciples and eight beginner disciples.

At this moment, Master Baiyun’s injuries had largely healed; evidently, the expert from the Beast King Palace hadn’t intended to take his life.

It was probably out of fear of the power behind Master Baiyun, the Moon Hua Sect.

Ling Xiao’s resurrection had taken everyone in Yunkong City aback; even Master Baiyun could hardly believe it.

However, not even Master Baiyun was clear about just how miraculous the ninth rotation of the Nine Rotations Golden Body Technique was. Ling Xiao’s resurrection was undeniably a blessing, and he didn’t inquire further. At this moment, what he cared about the most was the Sect’s expansion.

Although he wasn’t very optimistic about Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao was after all his disciple, and Master Baiyun was pleased he was alive.

"Do you know why your master isn’t concerned about the conflicts between the Green-eyed Clan, Ninja Clan, and Human Race?"

Master Baiyun suddenly asked a question.

All twelve shook their heads.

Although they each had their own ideas, none dared to voice them.

"Enough, today your master will tell you," Master Baiyun said, revealing a kind smile. "In the ancient times, there was no Ninja Spirit or Heroic Spirits, no Ninja Clan or Green-eyed Clan."

"Ah?"

The crowd was somewhat astonished.

"Back then, the Human Race was the only race that ruled the Heavenly Dragon Continent and was the Spirit of All Things! At that time, there were plenty of Ancient Demonic Beasts and Ferocious Beasts on the Heavenly Dragon Continent, whose strength was untold times greater than today’s Monster Beasts and Ferocious Beasts."

Master Baiyun continued, "At that time, the only power that the Human Race relied on was the Martial Soul!"

"What about the Ninja Clan and the Green-eyed Clan?" Ming Tian couldn’t help but ask.

"Approximately one hundred thousand years ago, the Alliance Leader of the Twelve Sects longed for immortality. Thus, he dispatched martial artists from the Xu Dao to search for the immortal holy medicine overseas. When Xu Dao left, he took with him a thousand male and female martial artists, who are the ancestors of the Ninja Clan."

Master Baiyun replied, "Xu Dao proclaimed himself Nin Emperor, the first emperor of the Ninja Clan. That was the beginning of the Ninja Clan, and the so-called Ninja Spirit is merely a rename, still a Martial Soul."

"As for the Green-eyed Clan, they also branched off from the Human Race during roughly the same period. At that time, the child born to the Alliance Leader of the Twelve Sects, with blond hair and green eyes, unlike ordinary people, was considered a demon bringing misfortune. Therefore, the Alliance Leader sent the child’s mother and their lineage to the Wild Land."

"No way, the Ninja Clan and the Green-eyed Clan both branched off from the Human Race?"

Anyone who heard this would be deeply shocked.

Because the grievances between the Green-eyed Clan, Ninja Clan, and Human Race had already persisted for thousands of years.

"Although you find it hard to believe, it is indeed true. This is also why the Twelve Sects, after re-emerging in the world, are willing to recruit disciples from the Ninja Clan and Green-eyed Clan," Master Baiyun sighed and said. "Besides the Ninja Clan and the Green-eyed Clan, there is also the Barbarian Clan, founded by the younger brother of the former Alliance Leader of the Twelve Sects, who were originally from the Human Race."

"Human Race, Barbarian Clan, Green-eyed Clan, Ninja Clan all originated from the same source? Is this what you mean by the lower races?"

Everyone present was somewhat unsettled.

They had recently fought a fierce battle against the Green-eyed Clan and Ninja Clan, resulting in countless deaths and injuries, only to arrive at such a conclusion.

"Indeed, the existence of the Twelve Sects is to regain the Human Race’s position as the Spirit of All Things! Only then are we qualified to rule over the Heavenly Dragon Continent again and compete with the races from the other twelve continents," Master Baiyun nodded and said. "I’m saying all this for a simple reason. Previously, I didn’t bother with your squabbles, but now that the Mountain and River Martial Soul has appeared and the Twelve Sects have re-emerged, the other twelve continents will soon learn of this. We share a common enemy, and I hope you will stop the infighting."

"We will obey the master’s command."

Although the twelve young geniuses replied very straightforwardly, what they actually thought in their hearts remained to be seen.

"Alright, let’s leave the matter at that. Next, Lin Ze and Wan 犇 will announce your military achievements, and at that time, these achievements will allow you to enter the Skill Transfer Hall to receive your rewards."

After Master Baiyun finished speaking, all the disciples were utterly confused.

It was one thing for Ling Xiao and the others from Hidden Dragon Camp to have Military Achievement Points, but what about Zuo Leng and Ming Tian?

And what’s the deal with Fei Yu and the other prodigies from the Heavenly Ninja Academy?

Do they also have Military Achievement Points?

"I know you’re puzzled. Actually, it’s quite simple. In your eyes, this war is a matter of life and death, but to your master, it is merely a trial to assess you," Master Baiyun explained.

Master Baiyun further elucidated, "The Military Achievement Points of Hidden Dragon Camp were obtained by killing members of the Green-eyed Clan and the Ninja Clan. The Military Achievement Points of the Heavenly Ninja Academy were obtained by killing members of the Human Race. Do you understand now?"

Although Master Baiyun’s words were somewhat hard for the twelve young disciples to accept, it was in keeping with his character.

He seemed to care not at all about the casualties on either side. It was normal for him to do something like this.

"Alright, read out the Military Achievement Points in order of amount. Surely both of you have sorted out the sequence by now?"

Master Baiyun glanced indifferently at Lin Ze and Wan 犇 as he spoke.

Here, Lin Ze represented the Human Race, while Wan 犇, who had just returned from outside, represented the Green-eyed Clan and the Ninja Clan.

"I’ll do the reading," Wan 犇 volunteered, picking up the record of military achievements and began, "First..."

At this point, Wan 犇’s face visibly paled, and after a pause he continued, "First is Ling Xiao, with 1060 Military Achievement Points!"

"Hmm?"

Upon hearing this, Master Baiyun appeared astonished and looked at Wan 犇, asking, "Are you sure you read that correctly? Isn’t Ming Tian first? Or Zuo Leng? How could it be Ling Xiao?"

Master Baiyun was skeptical.

Wan 犇 was skeptical as well.

But all the Military Achievement Points were not tallied manually; they were calculated by a Treasure, and there could be no mistake.

In the True Spirit Hall, the expressions of Ming Tian, Zuo Leng, and the rest of the Heavenly Ninja Academy were not looking good.

However, they dared not openly challenge Wan 犇.

"Master, there is a special circumstance here. Ling Xiao worked together with Lin Ze to kill a Nine Layers powerhouse of the Ninja Clan, which is why he received so many Military Achievement Points," Wan 犇 said.

"Governor Wan, your words are not quite correct," Lin Ze interjected.

"The Military Achievement Points are tabulated by the Treasure. Killing that Nine Layers powerhouse, Ling Xiao accounted for ninety percent of the points, and I only accounted for ten percent. It should be said that I assisted him, not the other way around," Lin Ze clarified.

"Enough, now is not the time to quibble about this. How many Military Achievement Points were granted for killing that Nine Layers strongman of the Ninja Clan?"

Master Baiyun interrupted Lin Ze and inquired.

"For slaying the Nine Layers strongman of the Ninja Clan, a total of 500 Military Achievement Points were awarded, with Ling Xiao receiving 450 of those points," Wan 犇 answered.

"But even for a Nine Layers strongman, isn’t that too many Military Achievement Points?" Master Baiyun questioned.

"That’s because, Master, this individual possessed the Shadow Martial Spirit, posing a tremendous threat to Yunkong City. If he had not died, the course of this war might well have changed, which is why the Military Achievement Points awarded were so substantial," Lin Ze responded.

"Indeed, this may be so, but even adding these 450 points, the figures still don’t seem to add up. Could it be that there was an error with the Treasure?"
