Fang Zhengzhi had never heard of Meng Tian, nor the World of the Sage. But, so what? As long as Yan Xiu knew.
Yan Xiu trusted Fang Zhengzhi, and Fang Zhengzhi trusted Yan Xiu.
"Do you know of Meng Tian?"
"Yes."
"Do you know what is in the World of the Sage?"
"Just a little."
"Okay!"
Fang Zhengzhi nodded.
All of the candidates were fighting to be the first to step into the stone door.
As the saying goes, first impressions are the most important. Seeing the World of the Sage before everyone else. The more understanding one had, the more advantages one would have.
Fang Zhengzhi was in no hurry, and neither was Yan Xiu.
As such, the two of them waited quietly. When everyone had passed through the stone door, the two of them walked in side by side.
There was no reason. Fang Zhengzhi just felt that he was clean, while everyone else was wet. As such, the wet and the dry did not mix well.
...
The rain stopped the moment they stepped through the stone door.
In front of them was an empty plot of land. There were no chairs or tables, not even a tree. There were only green pebbles on the ground. It was like a courtyard in a mansion.
The plot of land was not big, but it was enough for 200 people to stand comfortably.
Other than that, there was a bridge. A stone bridge. To be more precise, it was a broken bridge.
On the other side of the bridge, there was a mountain. The mountain was shrouded in fog, so they could not see anything. They could only vaguely tell that it was a mountain.
This scene did not seem too different from an ordinary pocket dimension. However, since it was called the World of the Sage, how could it be as simple as it looked on the surface?
"Cross the stone bridge!"
A clear voice rang out from the sky. It was a simple command, but it indicated what they had to do next.
A stone bridge that was broken in the middle.
There was a stone tablet at the end of the bridge. The words "Broken Bridge" were carved on it.
Other than that... There was nothing else.
Everyone's gaze was on the broken bridge. However, no one took the lead. Because... This was a broken bridge with no end in sight.
The gap was obvious, but the other side was shrouded in fog.
No one knew how long this bridge was, or if there was another bridge on the other side.
Everything seemed to be unknown.
However, the unknown was the hardest to fathom.
Fang Zhengzhi did not look at the bridge. He was looking at the stone tablet at the end of the bridge, or rather, he was looking at the two words …
"Broken Bridge."
Those were two very sharp words.
Every stroke and every drawing was deeply engraved on the stone tablet.
"If I am not wrong, Meng Tian's weapon is a sword?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yan Xiu.
"It is indeed a sword, but he has already abandoned it." Yan Xiu was slightly shocked. He did not know how Fang Zhengzhi knew that Meng Tian used a sword. Because. Fang Zhengzhi obviously did not know Meng Tian.
Fang Zhengzhi pointed at the words' Broken Bridge '.
Yan Xiu took a look and nodded his head in understanding.
"Speaking of swords, there has always been a legend in the Great Xia Dynasty. It is said that there is a sword in the World of the Sage. That is the sword that the Sagely Battle God used to kill the Demon Lord Si Kong!"
"A sword can be hidden in a small world?" Fang Zhengzhi was slightly confused. If that was the case, why couldn't his sword be kept in the small world?
"When one reaches the state of the Sagely Battle God, he can hide anything in the small world. Naturally, he can hide a sword." Yan Xiu was not surprised by Fang Zhengzhi's question. He knew that Fang Zhengzhi did not enter the Hall of Dao. Furthermore, ever since Fang Zhengzhi finished the six sets of examination papers in four hours, he was even more certain of this.
Because. No Hall of Dao could produce such a student.
"Then … where is the sword?"
"It seems like no one has found that sword. Legend has it that the Sagely Battle God did not use that sword after killing the Demon Lord Si Kong."
"Then what did he use?"
"Knife, a short knife."
"Short knife? A person who used a long sword suddenly used a short knife … "Fang Zhengzhi could not understand. It was as though a person who was used to writing with his right hand suddenly used his left hand. Could he adapt to it?
He did not understand. Yan Xiu could not explain it either.
In fact, no one in the entire Great Xia Dynasty could explain it. However, the truth was that the Sagely Battle God had been using a short knife ever since he returned from the Blood Shadow City.
As Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu were discussing, a figure appeared beside them. It was a figure covered in a red cloak. Her petite figure looked somewhat weak.
"You snuck in again?" Fang Zhengzhi did not even need to wait for the figure to take off her cloak to know who it was.
"What do you mean snuck in? I walked in openly okay?" A crisp voice rang out from under the red cloak, seemingly dissatisfied.
Fang Zhengzhi naturally did not believe her. He did not see her in the inner court of the Imperial Academy. As such, she was not in the inner court when she entered the World of the Sage.
It was easy to confirm this. Her cloak was not wet.
"What do you want?" Fang Zhengzhi could not be bothered to expose her.
"I want to defeat you!"
"Sure, but I heard that there is a sword here. I want to take a look first."
"Are you talking about the Sagely Battle God's sword? Hahaha … you want to find that sword? No one has been able to find that sword for hundreds of years … okay, this is fun. I have decided to join your team. Hurry up and cheer! "
Ping Yang was slightly taken aback. Then, she smiled and agreed in a matter-of-fact manner. She even made a great suggestion to move out together.
This process was quick.
Then, Ping Yang waited expectantly for Fang Zhengzhi to welcome her into the team. However, to her surprise, Fang Zhengzhi shook his head.
"You are too weak!"
This sentence was simple and direct. However, one had to admit that it was very damaging. At the very least, Ping Yang felt that she had never been doubted before.
"Fang Zhengzhi, you dare say that I am too weak?!"
"Is that not the case?"
"I am the one who wants to defeat you!"
"But, the truth is that you are too weak." Fang Zhengzhi insisted.
"Okay, you forced me to do this!" Ping Yang pouted, her clear eyes filled with anger.
Then, Ping Yang turned around and left without hesitation.
Fang Zhengzhi was very satisfied with Ping Yang's performance. At the very least, Ping Yang knew what shame was. He understood that it was not an easy task for a Star Conglomerate State cultivator to cozy up to him.
However, very quickly, Fang Zhengzhi realized that he had overestimated Ping Yang.
Because …
Ping Yang quickly returned, and beside her was a middle-aged man wearing a set of bright green armor.
"Bodyguard? Bodyguard? "These two terms flashed through Fang Zhengzhi's mind.
"Tell them, how powerful are you?" Ping Yang walked in front of Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu, then turned to the middle-aged man.
"Your highness, I have already entered the Heavenly Reflection State a year ago!" The middle-aged man replied respectfully.
"Okay, you have to defeat me now!" Ping Yang looked at Fang Zhengzhi as she spoke.
"Your highness, you can't do that!" The middle-aged man paled when he heard Ping Yang's words.
"Cut the crap. If you can't defeat me today, I'll raid your house tomorrow!" Ping Yang didn't care about the middle-aged man's begging at all. His face was overbearing.
"Your highness, do you really want me to defeat you?" The middle-aged man was in disbelief.
How could this be? He was in the Heavenly Reflection State, yet he was facing off against a Star Conglomerate State girl. Wasn't the difference in their abilities obvious?
"Of course!" Ping Yang nodded confidently.
The other examinees also noticed this scene at this moment.
All of them looked on in disbelief.
"That is … Princess Ping Yang!"
"Why is Princess Ping Yang in the combat examinations? And she even challenged Wang Chuanping? "
"Wang Chuanping is in the Heavenly Reflection State. Princess Ping Yang is only in the Star Conglomerate State, why would she challenge him? Did Wang Chuanping offend her in some way? "
All of the candidates were confused.
At this point, Su Donglin stepped out from the crowd.
Today, Su Donglin was wearing a green robe with a headband draped over his head. He looked indescribably dashing. Unfortunately, the tiredness between his brows could not be erased.
