Chapter 467 – Enemy: Eighth on the Golden Ranking
Having achieved the ninth rank on the Golden Ranking in one day, An Zheng felt like he was carrying a halo while walking in the courtyard of Three Academies. Everyone who saw An Zheng couldn’t help but look at him a few times, regardless of whether they were men or women. When the man looked at him, most of him would think how great it would be if he was the one who had challenged all the way to the police station. When the woman saw him, he was mostly thinking, “How crazy can this guy be?”
The Three Academies walace filled with vigor and vitality. The people here had a strong sense of jealousy and admiration for the strong, and it was even stronger than other places. No matter what era it was, the word ‘strong’ was used by men to attract the attention of women. Moreover, An Zheng was not ugly.
This was on the third day in Three Academies. An Zheng did not go to the class that was already arranged for him to attend, even if his teacher was indeed Fang Xuzhen. Therefore, according to An Zheng’s analysis, the Ming Fa Si still had some influence, and not only that, they also retained a certain amount of power hidden within. Otherwise, in this kind of place, students with potential like An Zheng would have already been snatched away by even more outstanding teachers.
Fang Shishi actually did not ask, nor did she look for An Zheng.
contest ground, when An Zheng walked to the front of the few instructors, the male instructor who had always wanted to make it difficult for An Zheng, was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head away and did not look at him. In fact, when he saw An Zheng’s brutal performance yesterday, wasn’t he thinking in the depths of his heart, if I were this young man, then how many beautiful girls’ favors would I receive in this bustling academy? However, he was just a low-level teacher who was only in charge of civil affairs. Even if he took the initiative to greet them, those arrogant girls would only address him as “mister” symbolically.
As for the female instructor, she was especially gentle to An Zheng.
“You’re not resting either.”
The female lecturer seemed to be criticizing him, but how could this be considered a criticism?
An Zheng replied, “Disciple is young, there is no need to rest.”
The female instructor sighed and said, “It’s good to be young. It’ity that I’m no longer young.”
An Zheng didn’t know what to say, and luckily this female instructor didn’t say anything more.
“We still need to register so that we can query the records in the future. “But I knew you would come, so I helped you fill out the form. You can just sign it.”
She smiled.
An Zheng gratefully looked at her, and then, he signed his name onto the form.
The female instructor saw that An Zheng had finished writing, and a hint of undetectable doubt flashed across her eyes. However, this suspicion quickly disappeared, and furthermore, An Zheng did not see her lower her head. When she looked up, it was spring.
“If I were younger, I might have been like them.”
The female instructor raised her hand and pointed in a direction. An Zheng looked in the direction of her finger and discovered that there were already dozens of girls gathered at contest ground. Although they weren’t too close, they were all gathered near the battlestage where the Golden Ranking Challenge was held. So even a fool would be able to tell that they had come for An Zheng. When they saw An Zheng looking at them, many of the girls started shrieking.
An Zheng sighed in his heart. He didn’t feel proud at all, rather, he was a little worried. That way, even if he didn’t do anything, more and more men would want to kill him.
“Du Shaobai!”
In the distance, a girl yelled out. She was even waving a small flag with the word “Du Shaobai” written on it.
“Keep going forward!”
Although he did not know them and knew that he would not interact with those girls in any way, this kind encouragement from them was of course kind to An Zheng. Therefore, An Zheng raised his right hand and waved it, causing the girl in the distance to immediately scream. An Zheng felt that it was unbelievable. What did he do, why did she scream?
Wearing a black robe, An Zheng looked clean, handsome, and tough. His body was tall and straight, as if he was a sharp javelin. Actually, An Zheng’s skin color was not very white. Compared to those young masters who lived like princes, his skin was not good enough. However, this kind of wild fresh meat was a completely different attraction for those girls.
In this era where every man was smeared with fat and powdered, An Zheng felt like a clean stream.
The female lecturer said, “If I were younger, I would have joined one of them. In fact, to a girl, attraction was not only about her figure and appearance. The strong always had an irresistible attraction to girls. You are not like those who are born superior. You have paid more than they have. So do not let them down, because at times, what they like is not necessarily someone, but some kind of hope. ”
An Zheng suddenly understood, these girls were obviously not people who came from genuine families. They didn’t really like him that much. Even if they worshipped him, it was only a moment of impulse. The reason they came to cheer for An Zheng was because they felt that he belonged to the same world as them. Simply put, An Zheng was the first Three Academies disciple to be so overbearing and barbaric as to give these Humble Class disciples a chance to win against them.
An Zheng thanked him again, and then asked: “May I ask if my opponent is here yet?”
The female instructor pointed towards the contest ground: “Many people guessed that you would continue challenging them today, those girls were already waiting for you here. And those boys who are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself or to see you go on singing. As for your opponent, he naturally guessed that you would challenge him today, so he arrived at least an hour earlier than you did. ”
Hearing that, An Zheng laughed: “So I won.”
The male instructor snorted and said, “Arrogant, arrogant. Sooner or later, you will suffeuge loss.”
The female instructor looked at An Zheng with admiration. “Because he doesn’t have confidence.”
“Yes.”
An Zheng replied with a single word, then walked towards the contest ground.
Eighth on the Golden Ranking. Although An Zheng had only seen it once, he remembered every name on the Golden Ranking and Purple Ranking. This man is called Jeroen. It was precisely because of this strange surname that An Zheng had a slightly deeper impression of him. Yelu was someone who was definitely not from the Da Xi Empire. He came from the grasslands in the north of the Da Xi Empire, which was even farther north than the State of Yan. Moreover, it was the surname Wang, one of the three most powerful clans on the prairie. These three clans almost divided the prairie into three parts, and most clans were subordinate to this large clan.
First, the Manchu race ruled the eastern region of the prairie. It was said that there were 1.5 million armored soldiers. The first was the Tie Qi clan, which ruled the southwest of the prairie. It was said that they had two million soldiers. The Yuan Clan ruled the north, which was the strangest clan in the Northern Grasslands. The Manchu Golden Clan had always been the overlord of the east with the royal clan’s name and face. Three hundred years ago, the Iron family had almost unified the entire grassland. If it wasn’t for the rise of the Manjin family, the territory of the Iron family might have been even larger.
The strange thing was that the Yuan Room Clan only had a total population of less than one million. Other than the old, weak, and women, there were only around two hundred thousand real warriors. However, it was this two hundred thousand that frightened both the Manchu and the Iron family. The Manchu and Iron Cranes had tried to snatch the northern meadow more than once, but no matter who it was, as long as they went there, they would be defeated. The great army of one million Iron Cranes clashed head-on against the iron cavalry of one hundred and twenty thousand Su Clan soldiers, but they were completely wiped out by the Yuan Clan. Before the eight hundred thousand strong Golden Tribe’s expedition army reached their destination, it was already abandoned halfway through the journey by the Yuan Su Family’s cavalry.
He didn’t know why, but he still couldn’t win.
The Iron family had always admired the culture of the Central Plains, so they had always sent their royal children to the Central Plains to study. Since Da Xi was the ruler of the Central Plains, the first choice for the royal family would be Da Xi. Ever since the first batch of proud Iron Cranes had been tortured to the point where they couldn’t even get a single piece of skin out of their bodies, the people that came after became much more obedient, no longer as domineering as before.
However, the people of the prairie were very aggressive, so they naturally would not easily admit defeat. However, their pride was still lacking compared to Da Xi’s. It was still the same. The Great Xixi was too powerful.
When Yale saw An Zheng walking over, his heart was actually nervous to the point of trembling. He was present when An Zheng won the ninth place on the Golden Ranking with ease yesterday, and he knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape the outcome of being challenged. Thus, he had not slept last night. He had been thinking about how he should prepare so that he would not lose.
“My name is Yale. I’m the opponent you want to challenge today.”
Yeluo cupped his fists in salute, his eyes sharp, “Are you ready? Our prairie folk treat our guests differently from your Central Plains people. ”
An Zheng: “If there’s nothing special to say, let’s begin.”
After he finished speaking, the girls who were spectating outside the contest ground shouted in an orderly manner, “I’m short on time.”
An Zheng could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
But in the eyes of others, An Zheng was just showing off. The jealousy and anger of Jeroen rushed to his mind in an instant, and he felt as if he were about to explode.
“Nothing special, I just wanted to tell you. I am the one in the highest position among the disciples sent by the Iron family to study in Da Xi. The servant who informed me of the good news has just left for a month and according to the distance, I have yet to return to my hometown. I can’t wait for the news to spread, but I am already no longer ranked eighth on the Three Academies’s Golden Ranking. ”
An Zheng said: “It’s not as slow as you think.”
He gestured a ‘please’ and before he could speak, the girls who were spectating outside shouted once again, “This one is Du Shaobai, please enlighten me!”
An Zheng took a step back, signalling Yale to take action.
Yale’s face grew redder and redder. The shouts of the girls outside made him more and more angry. He slightly moved his hands, and two semi-circular daggers appeared in his hands. His scimitar had been bent to an outrageous degree. If the two scimitars were put together, it would berfect circle. These two blades carried a very, very cold aura, and An Zheng guessed that it was probably made from a very mysterious type of meteorite.
“I know you are very strong, but everyone has their own perseverance.”
“What I want to protect is the pride of the people of the prairie.”
An Zheng: “Can we start?”
When we competed in the past, he said that everyone had their own perseverance. He said that it was to protect the pride of the people of the prairie that those girls would look at him with admiration and curiosity. But right now, they only knew how to say “my time is short”, “my name is Du Shaobai”, please enlighten me.
He attacked with his blade.
The blade was like the crescent moon.
In just an instant, within the contest ground that had a radius of less than fifty metres, other than the two of them, the only other person left was the blade aura. It was everywhere, so much that it made one’s scalp tingle.
[Silvermoon Wolf Slash]
Yale’s eyes were a little red. He howled like a wolf, “You will fall!”
