A single stone raised a thousand ripples!
Jiang Chen's words stunned everyone and caused an uproar. His words were filled with deep meaning. Even an idiot could tell that there was a hidden meaning in his words. Didn't he mean that all of them had died in there?
How was that possible? They were all from the Azure Dragon Mansion, the top ten geniuses of the Azure Dragon Mansion, especially Teng Yunwu and Teng Shan. Even in the Four Mansions and One Battalion, their names had already spread far and wide. How could they all die in the Minorcosm World? This was simply inconceivable.
"This is impossible!"
An Azure Dragon Mansion disciple bellowed, unable to believe what he had just heard.
"Among the four manors and one battalion, the one with the highest chance of winning the championship is none other than Senior Brother Teng Yunwu and Senior Brother Teng. Don't tell me … they really died inside the Minorcosm World?"
Some couldn't believe it, their eyes filled with doubt. Ever since the Azure Dragon Mansion was established, it had always been the representative of the four manors and one battalion, the pride of the Lin Country. How could it be possible that all of them died? If this news was true, it was no different from a bolt from the blue to the Azure Dragon Mansion.
"Say that again? Where are they exactly? "
The Azure Dragon Mansion Principal, Murong Jie, took a step forward, his eyes sharp. Leng Leng's gaze was fixed on Jiang Chen's group. Even his breathing became heavy. He had high hopes for the Teng Yunwu and Junior Brother Teng. This time, the Four Manors and One Battalion Grand Competition was waiting for them to perform. Yet, they were swept away by a dark horse from Kirin Province. No matter what, Murong Jie was unwilling to believe this.
"He's already dead, there's no way he'll come out again. Isn't it clear enough?"
Da Huang said calmly. His expression was cold as he looked at the various faces in disdain. There was anger, sorrow, sighing, and gloating. There were all kinds of emotions in the world.
"Arrogant country bumpkins, how dare you kill someone from my Azure Dragon Mansion!"
Murong Jie's gaze was as sharp as a blade, and his killing intent was overwhelming. A terrifying aura enveloped them, firmly locking onto Jiang Chen and the others.
At this time, the White Tiger Manor and Vermilion Bird Camp were no exception, all of them were on high alert. Once Murong Jie made a move, they wouldn't let the matter rest. After all, Jiang Chen had incurred the wrath of the public, killing one of their geniuses. He had long been viewed as a thorn in the side by these four Manors and One Camp. Other than the Black Warrior Mansion's people who didn't suffer any casualties, even Murong Tianci was holding a grudge against Jiang Chen, extremely angry.
"The winner becomes king and the loser becomes a bandit. Who can be blamed for not being as skilled as others? If the ones standing here today were people from the Azure Dragon Manor, and the ones who died were us, I'm afraid you would have a different story, right? I gave them a chance, but they couldn't escape. "
Jiang Chen was fearless, speaking in an indifferent tone. Facing Murong Jie, Bai Bijiang, and the Vermilion Bird Camp's Chen Hongmin, this battle could be said to have greatly damaged the morale of the four Manors and One Camp.
However, some people were happy while others were sad. At least to the Qilin Mansion, this was a rare piece of good news. Jiang Chen was the dark horse that led the crowd and stood his ground against the opinions of the masses. This was something that no one could refute. There was no need to look at the Flowerless Fruit in his hand as everyone had already retreated in defeat.
"Are you trying to challenge my bottom line?"
Murong Jie Leng Leng said, glaring at Jiang Chen. The anger in his heart had long been ignited.
"You can't say that, Brother Murong. The winner is king, and the loser is a thief. If you lose, it can only be your Azure Dragon Mansion's people. If Jiang Chen's group lost, I don't think they would be able to come out."
Mu Tianheng said coldly. Facing the confrontation between the three Manors, he didn't back down. After all, as Manors, they couldn't oppress others with their power, could they? Although Jiang Chen was in the wrong for killing people, they couldn't just ignore their status and attack Jiang Chen, right? If they did that, wouldn't they make a fool of themselves?
"He violated our previous agreement. Shouldn't he be punished? This kind of evil person has killed countless people, yet he doesn't know how to repent. He has talent but no virtue. So what if his talent is high? "
Chen Hongmin sneered as he pressed forward.
"Since there is a battle, there will be sacrifices. What is the purpose of our cultivation? Where is the great dao? Isn't it to protect ourselves? Are you going to remain indifferent when someone puts a knife to your neck? Are you not allowed to resist when someone's knife is pointed at you? What's the point of this Four Manors and One Camp Grand Competition? Are we going to be trampled on by others? Hmph, what a joke. I believe in my disciple, and I believe that the people of Kirin Province are not murderous devils. They won't do this unless they have no other choice. "
Mu Tianheng argued. He didn't care about Murong Jie and the other two at all.
"You're twisting words. An eye for an eye. Don't you know how many of our people Jiang Chen has killed?"
Bai Bijiang said in a deep voice.
"If you're afraid of death, why didn't you stay at home? Why did you come out to embarrass yourself? Are you a sore loser? Hehehe. "
Da Huang snorted.
"A bunch of barbarians. They're hopeless."
Chen Hongmin said in a low voice.
"Enough!"
Lin Tianlin furrowed his brows and harrumphed coldly. In an instant, the square became deathly silent.
"Since it's a competition, there must be a winner and a loser. Since it's a battle, there must be sacrifices. Survival of the fittest! I believe that you all agreed to let them fight like cornered beasts in the Minorcosm World. Since you've made this decision, you should understand that death is inevitable. Now, all of you look indignant. What a scandal! Where is the prestige of the Four Prefects and One Battalion? I think you're all like the middle-aged women haggling in the market. I feel ashamed for you. If you win, you have to win with honor. If you lose, you have to lose with dignity. You're all heroes of your generation. Don't you understand this? Among those present, there are also seniors of mine. This is a breach of etiquette. What a scandal! "
Lin Tianlin's words made everyone blush with shame. They didn't say another word. After all, this wasn't something to be proud of.
As the Crown Prince of Lin Country, he still had this bit of authority. No one dared to refute him.
"Your Highness, you're right."
Mu Tianheng was the first to stand up and agree with Lin Tianlin. Everyone looked at each other and snorted. They were speechless. Although they had suffered a great loss, they could only let it go in the end.
Jiang Chen looked at Lin Tianlin and nodded slightly. His Highness, the Crown Prince, had stood his ground and won the competition of the Four Prefects and One Battalion. There was no doubt about it.
Lin Tianlin had made the final decision. No one dared to disobey him. After all, he was the Crown Prince of Lin Country. Not everyone dared to disobey him. What Lin Tianlin said was right. There was nothing wrong with it. Everyone could only grit their teeth and swallow their anger.
All of the disciples of the Qilin Mansion were incomparably excited. Murong Tianci and the others were gnashing their teeth and they were unwilling in their hearts. But, after all, they were the biggest geniuses of the four manors and one camp. They were also disciples of the Qilin Mansion, but they felt a sincere humiliation.
"Jiang Chen! I will never forgive you. "
