Chapter 321: The Name of a Man, the Shadow of a Tree!
Jiang Qiqi said that she only needed a sword to defeat Murong Wanhui, but that was only for her in her heyday, so these words couldn't help but make people feel a little regretful.
But Xia Sheng didn't think so.
Because the victory or defeat of Chunqiu is only temporary, but the path of cultivation is as long as a lifetime, besides, if a person dies, then even if he gets the leader of Chunqiu's personal battle and becomes a big man admired by everyone, what is the use?
Everything, whether fame or power, is only useful while you are alive.
And in Xia Sheng's heart, Murong Wangui was already a dead man.
When Xia Sheng decided to climb Lingxiao Peak and sign a life and death contract to kill Pei Yuanji, the reason he gave Qin Xiaohua was that because Pei Yuanji wanted to kill him, he wanted to kill Pei Yuanji.
It's that simple.
And now facing Murong's late return, it is also based on the same reason.
Because you're going to kill me, I'll kill you first.
It is a matter of course.
The only pity is that Xia Sheng has no way to participate in Chunyu's personal battle, and he is openly beating Murong Wangui into the abyss before everyone else.
Before this, all the processes of this Spring Festival seemed to be moving in the direction that Murong Wangui had expected at the beginning.
For example, he designed the battle of Osmanthus Lane, although he failed to kill Xia Sheng, but to some extent the strength of the Spring and Autumn Academy was greatly damaged, Pei Yuanji died, and Xia Sheng was also removed from the position of team leader and teacher, which laid a very solid foundation for the victory of the Tianxing Academy.
Another example is to snipe the strongest group of the Spring and Autumn Academy in the first round of melee, so that all four people led by Zheng Jiaoxi were defeated and sunk in the sand, stopping before the battle for the position.
The only thing that was a little unexpected was the Mo Yuan who came out of nowhere.
Unexpectedly, he broke into the championship battle with the hope of the Spring and Autumn Academy on his own, and bit the Tianxing Academy and the Imperial Academy in the standings, retaining the last possibility of a comeback.
But it doesn't matter.
If all goes well. Murong Wangui will soon defeat Zhao Chen, and then break the myth created by Mo Yuan with a crushing momentum in the final championship battle, and ascend to the top position of this year's Chunyu individual battle.
In order to give the opponent a catastrophe in the final decisive battle, at this moment, Murong Wan is still retaining his strength!
So he proposed a gentleman's war.
He gave up the advantage of physical strength, and also gave up the tactics after the soul melting. All in order to hide your hole cards deeper.
And don't forget, now Murong is only a spirit king!
It is true that it has only been half a pillar of incense since Murong returned to the Spirit King Realm in the late years, but his aura has gradually climbed from the Spirit King Initial Realm and the Spirit King Middle Realm to the Spirit King Peak, and now it is now. has already faintly suppressed Zhao Chen on the realm!
No one would doubt that if he wanted to, he would even be able to be promoted to the Spirit Emperor at any time!
It may seem strange to say, but it's true.
Even Pei Yuanji, who was on the stage of life and death in Buju Mountain that day, was able to break through to the imperial rank, and Murong Wangui, who was ranked higher on the Jinyun list, would it be inferior?
But Murong Wangui didn't do this, because he wanted to leave this last gift to Mo Yuan of the Spring and Autumn Academy.
Murong's calculation of returning late had almost succeeded, because the time was in full swing. Seeing that the unicorn and the snow-feathered peacock under Zhao Chen's royal command were gradually declining, they were only one step away from victory.
The biggest variable in this year's Spring Festival has suddenly happened.
This variable. It's a person.
It is true that before this, Murong Wangui's promotion path was not smooth sailing, such as Gu Zhixing's strength transcendence, such as Mo Yuan's sudden rise, which brought him some trouble. But that was at least within Murong Wangui's control.
But now this person must not be judged by common sense.
When he walked into the Spring Stadium and when people found out about his arrival, he naturally became the focus of the audience.
Even Zhao Chen and Murong Wangui, who were still fighting the stage at this time, were overshadowed. For a while, he subconsciously suspended the battle.
Because his name is Xia Sheng.
Although many people from the seventy-two sects at the scene had never seen Xia Sheng, when his name came out of the mouths of the people of the major academies and families, there was an immediate exclamation in the audience.
The name of the man, the shadow of the tree!
No matter how the Qin family helped Qin Yan win the championship that day, how he killed a dignified venerable with the help of Qin Xiaohua's hand, and no matter how Xia Sheng's body was shrouded in the aura of the crown prince and the prince, the country's sacrificial wine, the youngest honorary teacher of the Spring and Autumn Academy, etc., just the fact that he killed Pei Yuanji openly on the stage of life and death was enough to make everyone present awe-inspired!
Before the Spring Festival, the most enthusiastic topic in the world was the duel between Pei Yuanji and Murong Wangui.
Because until the moment of the real fight, no one knows which of these two people is stronger.
Even if Jinyun Bang has given his own answer, his strength can only be proved by victory or defeat after all.
Therefore, once upon a time, the fight between Pei Yuanji and Murong Wangui was also regarded as the biggest highlight of this year's Spring Festival.
It's a pity that people weren't able to wait until that moment.
Because Pei Yuanji died.
The peerless genius who had always been compared to Murong Wangui, at a moment that no one expected, unfortunately died.
The person who killed him was the young man who walked slowly into the Chunqiu arena and was slightly thin.
Because of Pei Yuanji's death, there is no answer to the question of who is stronger between him and Murong Wangui.
But at least everyone knows that this young man named Xia Sheng is stronger than Pei Yuanji!
After a brief shock, a doubt could not help but rise in everyone's hearts.
Why is this here?
Isn't it said that he was dismissed from his position as the leader of the Chunqiu team and was punished to be claustrophobic in the back mountain of the academy?
In this regard, Xia Sheng did not explain, but faced everyone's gaze, and said with a smile: "You don't care about me, continue to compare, continue to compare, I just passed by here and came in to find someone, so what, have you seen our Vice Dean Wei of the Spring and Autumn Academy?"
When the words fell, everyone was a little confused, or the experienced head of the Ye family in Sunset Valley, and immediately spoke: "I didn't expect Xia Gongzi to come too, the hospitality was not good, please bear with me, I don't know if Xia Gongzi came to participate on behalf of the Spring and Autumn Academy, or just came to watch the battle?"
Xia Sheng thought about it, and then he made a gesture to take out the holy decree from his arms, saying that he was here to inspect the performance of the Nine Emperor Princes in this battle, but before he could complete this action, Zheng Rong jumped out of the oblique thorn first, and said in a loud voice: "I'm afraid we have to discuss this matter again, of course, it does not rule out the possibility that Xia Jiaoxi will play as the team leader in tomorrow's team battle." ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.
Although there is indeed a precedent for changing the team leader before the team battle, and it is also in line with the rules of the big competition, but it is generally because the original team leader had an accident in the individual battle, resulting in the inability to continue to insist on the battle made the next decision, but now judging from Zheng Rong's performance, there is no such worry......
Of course, with Xia Sheng's reputation in the cultivation world now, such a choice does not seem surprising.
So Master Ye nodded and said with a smile: "In that case, please ask Xia Gongzi to watch the battle from the sidelines first, I hope you can give an exact plan before the team battle." ”
Xia Sheng bowed slightly, and then naturally fell his gaze on the battle platform in front of him.
However, he was not looking at Murong Wanhui, but at Zhao Chen.
"Aaron, long time no see. ”
Zhao Chen's eyes were quiet, with a kind smile on the corner of his mouth, and he respectfully saluted Xia Sheng: "I've seen Mr." ”
Xia Sheng waved his hand: "Okay, let's compare it well, don't embarrass the teacher!" By the way, your Xueling peacock looks beautiful, but it seems to have eaten a bad stomach, if you have five dragon pills on your body, remember to eat it earlier." ”
As soon as these words came out, although the smile on Zhao Chen's face remained undiminished, a touch of fierceness suddenly flashed in his eyes!
