The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 1937 - 1934: Tianjiao Alliance
CHAPTER 1937: CHAPTER 1934: TIANJIAO ALLIANCE
Shi Zhongxian and Wu He stood together chatting idly, while the other warriors of the Shi Clan quietly surrounded them, not daring to easily interject in their conversation.
But in the crowd, there was one person, a woman, whose eyes were fixed on Lin Bai, filled with resentment and malicious intent, as if she wanted to eat him alive!
Lin Bai naturally saw her as well and smiled lightly, paying no heed.
This woman was none other than Shi Jiamu, previously suppressed by Lin Bai beneath the lake bottom of the Territories of all nations, the most outstanding Tianjiao, and also the one who harbored the deepest resentment against Lin Bai.
A few more days passed, and more and more warriors arrived on the ninth floor, but they all went directly to pay their tribute items, waiting on the side, focusing on the upcoming Tianjiao battle!
The day before the Tianjiao battle began, Jian Kong and others finally arrived on the ninth floor.
Jian Kong, Shen Qin, Lin Yibing, Leng Yun, Lei Zidong, Huo Fentian, Shui Qingling, and others had been cooperating since the second floor, basically capturing all the Puppet Kings on the other several floors.
"Jian Kong."
Wu He saw Jian Kong arrive on the ninth floor and immediately smiled and called out.
Jian Kong was taken aback, immediately looked towards Wu He, walked over, and cupped his fists, saying, "Brother Wu He, long time no see."
Wu He chuckled lightly, "You’re really slow, only now reaching the ninth floor."
Jian Kong laughed lightly, "I ran into some things along the way, got delayed."
Subsequently, Jian Kong, Lin Yibing, and others stood by Wu He’s side and began to chat leisurely with Shi Zhongxian.
After chatting for a while, Jian Kong, Lin Yibing, Shen Qin and the others all turned back to look at Lin Bai and his group, after which they exchanged a few words, all showing a slight smile.
Ning laughed lightly, saying, "It seems we’re being targeted."
Lin Bai smiled lightly, "Heh, let them come."
Feng Wenjun smiled faintly, also not taking it to heart.
Immediately after, another person arrived in the White Jade Square on the ninth floor, a handsome young man in a purple robe.
"Tu Ziyun." Wu He at this time also smiled and called out.
The young man in the purple robe heard the voice, immediately looked up, and walked over with a smile, "Brother Wu He."
Half a day later, Hu Qi arrived on the ninth floor.
Seeing Lin Bai at first glance, Hu Qi immediately prepared to walk over.
Wu He then spoke up at this time, "Hu Qi."
Hu Qi was taken aback, slightly turned his head to look at Wu He, and said blandly, "What is it?"
Wu He chuckled lightly, "Please come over for a moment, Brother Hu Qi, we have an important matter to discuss."
At that moment, Hu Qi frowned and with a puzzled expression, walked over to Wu He, came to the group, and after Wu He explained his thoughts, awaited Hu Qi’s response.
Hu Qi laughed lightly, "Forget it, with Tu Ziyun here, I won’t participate."
Saying this, Hu Qi lost interest and left Wu He’s side, walked towards Lin Bai, and immediately smiled broadly, calling out, "Brother Lin Bai."
Lin Bai smiled and replied, "Brother Hu."
Wu He saw Lin Bai and Hu Qi talking happily and his face showed a trace of chilliness, saying, "Hu Qi, don’t take what’s given to you; since that’s the case, don’t blame us for being merciless."
In the White Jade Square, nearly five thousand people now had come to worship the Yuanzu God Statue, becoming disciples of the East Continent Academy, but they did not leave, instead waiting in the square for the upcoming Tianjiao battle!
Many people were now frowning, saying, "Why do I feel... something’s not right."
"I also feel something’s not right, as if camps have been divided."
"With Wu He and Shi Zhongxian as leaders, this side is the Tianjiao from the East Continent Heroes Record."
"And over here, with Feng Wenjun, Ning, Lin Bai, and Hu Qi standing together."
Many warriors observed this scene strangely, speaking in low voices.
By now, most of the warriors to participate in the upcoming Tianjiao battle had already gathered here, without exception, but their directions of standing were all different.
On this side, led by Wu He and Shi Zhongxian, stood Jian Kong, Lin Yibing, Shen Qin, Leng Yun, Lei Zidong, Huo Fentian, Shui Qingling, Tu Ziyun, and Shi Jiamu among others.
On the other side, Lin Bai, Ning, Feng Wenjun, and Hu Qi stood together.
And Yin Jiuling had always stood silently in the middle, exuding a strong aura of death, making people reluctant to approach.
Following this, more and more warriors came to the ninth floor.
Among them, the Wind Spirit Feng Xiangtian and Ice Spirit Bing Wuling, known as two of the Five Spirit Children, were called over by Wu He upon arriving on the ninth floor, then stayed in their camp without leaving.
After a while, a man in a purple robe and a man in a white robe arrived side by side on the ninth floor, appearing on the White Jade Square.
The young girl who had been following Zi Donglai remained at his side, although she was not particularly eye-catching.
"Zi Donglai and Xie Changqing."
Ning looked at the two, a subtle expression on her face.
Lin Bai also looked over, taking note of the pair.
Without a doubt, both were called over by Wu He, but then came their simultaneous laughter, "Brother Wu He, you probably are looking for the wrong people."
"We are not good at fighting; I’m a fortune teller and Brother Xie is an alchemist, neither of us are adept at fighting."
Zi Donglai said with a faint smile.
Xie Changqing glanced back, seeing Ning, and laughed softly, "Brother Wu He, rest assured, although we won’t participate in the martial arts competition, we will of course stay to witness this pinnacle battle."
After they finished speaking, Zi Donglai and Xie Changqing went to the Yuanzu God Statue, paid homage, offered tribute items, received some treasures, played with them with great interest, and stored them in their storage bags.
"Are Zi Donglai and Xie Changqing really not participating in the final Tianjiao battle?"
Many warriors were taken aback by Zi Donglai and Xie Changqing’s actions.
Worshiping the Yuanzu God Statue meant giving up participation in the Tianjiao battle!
Time passed quickly, and late at night on the last day, nearly five thousand warriors had already gathered in the White Jade Square, all waiting for the battle to begin tomorrow.
"Tomorrow is the last day of the Master Apprenticeship Examination."
"Every year, the last day of the Master Apprenticeship Examination is the Tianjiao battle, and this year’s Tianjiao battle might be particularly spectacular."
"Indeed, there are so many Tianjiao this year."
Many warriors chatted casually, looking at those in the field who were going to participate in the Tianjiao battle.
Wu He, Jian Kong, Lin Yibing, Shen Qin, these warriors are all well-known on the East Continent.
Ning, Lin Bai, Hu Qi, and others are this year’s dark horse Tianjiao.
The last dark horse Tianjiao to arrive on the ninth floor were the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers.
The Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers looked over at Wu He upon arriving and went over, laughing, "Brother Wu He."
Wu He’s eyes flicked with dissatisfaction and he said harshly, "What are you coming over for, get lost!"
The Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers were stunned; they clearly saw this year’s Tianjiao gathered here, so why were they not allowed?
Being stopped by Wu He’s shout, the Four Heavenly Disabled Brothers froze in place, puzzled, and a trace of displeasure appeared on their faces.
Hu Qi at this moment smiled faintly, "Ling Yi, if people look down on you, why bother sticking your warm face on their cold asses?"
Ling Yi turned back to look at Hu Qi, gave a bitter smile, and the four brothers walked over toward Hu Qi.
