At the entrance of Yuan Martial Arts Academy.
A young boy, eyes closed, hugging a pair of mother-and-son swords, stood like a peerless swordsman with his back against a willow tree, as if waiting for sothing.
In front of him stood a pale-faced scholar who seed like he was about to recite poetry to the roadside willow tree.
Beside him sat a yawning old beggar, who even lay down on his side as if utterly bored.
Behind him, on the other side of the willow tree, stood a beautiful woman seeking shade under the tree.
Surrounding them were passersby in a hurry.
Today, there seed to be an unusually high number of people passing by the street at the entrance of Yuan Martial Arts Academy.
Attracted by the boy’s peculiar behavior, quite a few people stopped, whispering to each other.
A gentle breeze blew by, carrying fresh willow leaves from the branches into the air and also lightly stirring the youth’s long, fine hair.
It was at this mont that the young man opened his eyes.
Because he heard footsteps.
Slightly lifting his gaze, he looked towards the plaque of Yuan Martial Arts Academy.
Those four characters, which ant so much to him a month ago as the starting point of his martial arts journey.
But now, he only wanted to smash that signboard.
Tap tap tap.
The sound of hurried footsteps ca from within the academy.
A group of people walked out.
"Diao Deyi!"
At first glance, Yuan Hongxin saw the swordsman boy hugging the mother-and-son swords with his back against the willow tree.
"Heard you’ve co to smash up my place? Thinking you’ve grown wings, have you?" Yuan Hongxin’s eyes narrowed slightly, his mouth curling into a smile.
His gaze moved briefly from Diao Deyi to the three people beside him, but it was unclear whether those three were with Diao Deyi or not.
If they were indeed with him, then these three might be the very reason Diao Deyi dared to issue a challenge.
After all, Diao Deyi alone could not possibly defeat him.
However, as Diao Deyi walked away from the willow tree towards him and seeing that the three people beside the tree had no reaction, Yuan Hongxin’s mind was mostly at ease, and he looked noticeably more relaxed.
Of course, he knew why Diao Deyi had co.
That Diao Ruru was Diao Deyi’s sister, not to ntion she was such a special experintal subject.
There might even be so connection with the powerful figures behind the scenes, possibly even being appointed by them to look after Diao Ruru.
Now with Diao Ruru missing, he had no choice but to find her.
This led to the scene unfolding now.
Too bad.
Diao Ruru, I want!
You Diao Deyi, I also want!
I want it all!
Yuan Hongxin’s eyes glimred with an aggressive light.
"Diao Deyi, you ingracious traitor! The master treated you like his own son, gave you his utmost care, and yet you repay kindness with enmity! You’re worse than pigs and dogs!"
"Diao Deyi, don’t think just because you have joined the Foolish Underworld you can do whatever you want! We at Yuan Martial Arts Academy will not indulge you!"
"Junior Brother Diao, turning back is the shore; if you recognize your mistakes now, the master won’t be angry. It’s just that you were montarily confused."
Several disciples from Yuan Martial Arts Academy, including Qi Xiangxuan, voiced their opinions.
There were those with forceful attitudes, moral condemnations, and earnest pleads.
Their intense words also attracted ’people’ passing by to co over and watch.
Yuan Hongxin didn’t care about these onlookers at all.
He was just thinking about how he could easily subdue Fang Yu without putting in much effort.
But while Yuan Hongxin was still pondering on a plan, Fang Yu spoke up.
And as soon as he spoke, it was shockingly provocative.
"Master, you’ve grown old."
These words, Yuan Hongxin himself had said.
It was said to Song Dongn.
But when Yuan Hongxin himself said it, it was just a strategy.
Coming from Fang Yu, however, it was an insult.
Yuan Hongxin couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.
"Oh really? I’m old? It seems that you, this ungrateful disciple, truly wish to challenge ."
"A challenge?"
Fang Yu shook his head: "No, no, no, I am asking you to step aside, master."
Before Yuan Hongxin could respond, disciples like Qi Xiangxuan were already cursing furiously.
"How dare you!"
"This is totally outrageous!"
"Delusional thinking of overthrowing your superiors! Ignorance of life and death!"
But these noisy rebukes could not affect the two main parties in the slightest.
Instead, because of the lecturing from these individuals, even more ’people’ ca around to watch.
Yuan Hongxin squinted his eyes.
"Diao Deyi, do you really think you can defeat ? The last ti I tested you with one move, it was just going easy on you. Are you overestimating yourself?"
[Yuan Hongxin:350/350.]
Seeing the familiar health bar, Fang Yu stared straight at Yuan Hongxin without any evasion.
"Thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west; don’t bully the poor just because they are young! Master, do you know how to write the word ’genius’? The aged should fear the young; it’s about ti your old bones started enjoying so peace and quiet."
Yuan Hongxin laughed again.
"So you’re that eager for my position?"
"You know what I’m after."
Sure enough!
He wanted to take back that woman.
Yuan Hongxin felt smug inside and his tone beca even more steady.
"Renounce your position at Yangshen Hall, return to Yuan Martial Arts Academy, and you shall have what you desire."
"I only trust my sword. Once I inherit the position of head of Yuan Martial Arts Academy, I will naturally get what I want."
Yuan Hongxin sneered.
"It looks like you really won’t turn back until you hit the south wall. Fine! In that case, how about we make a bet?"
"Speak."
"We will have a match; if I win, you will obediently resign from Yangshen Hall and return under my tutelage."
"And if I win?"
"You know what you will get, and even this position as head of Yuan Martial Arts Academy, I would let you have it."
This response was bold and magnanimous.
As if he never even considered the possibility of defeat.
But the disciples below were all flustered.
