"Killing a Grandmaster of the Dong Fu Nation is as easy as slaughtering a dog!"
Ye Xing roared with his inner strength, his voice spreading in all directions.
Whether it was the army of the Dong Fu Nation five miles ahead or the people of the Luo Xing Kingdom five miles behind, they all heard it clearly.
Apart from the teachers and students of the Zishan Academy, the soldiers of the Dong Fu Nation and the Luo Xing Kingdom were all shocked.
Ye Xing had actually won. He had killed a Lv 8 Martial Dao Grandmaster from the Dongfu Nation!
Moreover, it was a clean victory. As he had said, killing a Grandmaster was as easy as slaughtering a dog!
After a moment of shock, the Dong Fu Nation broke out into enthusiastic cheers.
"Dong Fu Gou!"
"Dong Fu Gou!"
…
The waves of cheers grew louder and louder. Compared to the cheers for Ye Xing earlier, these cheers were even louder and more passionate.
The cheers roused the hearts of the people and boosted the morale of the Luo Xing Kingdom's soldiers.
The soldiers of the Dong Fu Nation felt the same as the people of the Luo Xing Kingdom, but their other emotions were the opposite.
Liuchuan Wei had actually been killed by Ye Xing, a Rank 7 Martial Path cultivator. This was beyond the expectations of the Dong Fu Nation's soldiers. They were shocked and furious at the same time.
Especially the Liuchuan Legion's Legion Commander, Liuchuan Ji, who was furious.
He had ordered Liuchuan Wei to chop off Ye Xing's head and use it as a urinal, but in the end, it was Ye Xing who had chopped off Liuchuan Wei's head. Although Ye Xing did not use Liuchuan Wei's head as a urinal, that was because Ye Xing disdained to do so. His actions had also caused the Dong Fu Nation to lose face and suffer humiliation.
Ye Xing's shout, "Killing a Grandmaster of the Dong Fu Nation is as easy as slaughtering a dog," was no less humiliating to the Dong Fu Nation than Liuchuan Wei's head being used as a urinal.
"He's dead! Bastard!"
Rukawa Ji was infuriated. Rukawa Wei's death was not only a loss of face for the Dongfu army, but also the loss of an elite of the Rukawa family.
He roared, "Which chiliarch is willing to go out and bring back this thief's head and corpse? I will tear him into pieces and use his head as a lantern!"
"Beishan Cang is willing to fight and kill this bastard!" A peak Level Eight Martial Scholar walked out from the Liuchuan Army.
Beishan Cang was over forty years old. He was one of the famous chiliarchs of the Liuchuan Corps. His strength was definitely top-notch among grandmasters of the same realm. He had defeated grandmasters of the same realm many times.
…
Ye Xing narrowed his eyes when he saw another person coming up. This was exactly what he wanted.
In his eyes, every Level Eight Martial Grandmaster was a generous contribution.
All the countries nearby had the same way of recording their battle achievements. The higher the cultivation of the enemy killed, the higher the battle achievement.
Ordinary soldiers of the fourth or fifth stage of the Martial Path were worth one merit point.
Most of the soldiers of the sixth stage of the Martial Path were decurions and were worth ten merit points.
Most of the masters of the seventh stage of the Martial Path were centurions and were worth a hundred merit points.
Most of the masters of the eighth stage of the Martial Path were thousand-men and were worth a thousand merit points.
Most of the masters of the ninth stage of the Martial Path were tribunals and were worth ten thousand merit points.
Most of the half-step Martial Sages were legion commanders and were worth fifty thousand merit points.
This was only the merit points gained from killing enemies. If it was purely based on merit points, it would be different. For example, killing a decurion would give you ten merit points. However, becoming a decurion would require more than ten merit points. Instead, it would require five times more merit points to become a decurion, which would require fifty merit points.
Similarly, becoming a centurion would require five hundred merit points. Becoming a chiliarch would require five thousand merit points. Becoming a tribunus would require fifty thousand merit points. Becoming a legion commander would require two hundred and fifty thousand merit points.
Ye Xing had already killed a seventh stage of the Martial Path and an eighth stage of the Martial Path, earning him a total of one thousand and one hundred merit points. Based on merit points alone, it was more than enough to become a centurion.
Of course, there was a limit to the number of merit points one could obtain. This was especially true for the temporary mercenaries and the teachers and students of the Zishan Academy. They were not part of the military. Unless they entered the military system and became a real soldier, they would not be able to become a general no matter how many merit points they had.
To the cultivators outside the military system, merit points were just a form of honor and a form of value. They could be used to exchange for various treasures in the Zishan Marquis' residence. They could also stay and enjoy the same treatment as a general.
For example, Ye Xing had one thousand and one hundred merit points, which was more than enough for him to become a centurion. Although he could not become a true centurion, he could still obtain the title of a centurion and enjoy the same treatment as a centurion. His status was higher than that of a normal soldier or a decurion.
Even after the war was over, as long as he did not exchange his merit points, he could keep his title. It was a great honor, representing how much he had contributed to the country and how much merit he had earned.
Beishan Cang was stronger than a normal eighth stage Martial Path master, but he was slightly weaker than Ren Xiuwu, who had cultivated the supreme-grade Origin Restoration Technique.
If Ye Xing could defeat Ren Xiuwu, Beishan Cang was naturally no match for him. He was defeated in less than ten moves by Ye Xing.
This wasn't the Academy Tournament, so losing to Ye Xing meant losing their lives.
Whoosh!
There was a flash of cold light, and the heavily injured Beishan Cang's head flew into the air.
Shi Jingxiang's scimitar was very good. It was unusually sharp and could cut through a person's head like cutting vegetables.
In the next moment, Ye Xing raised Beishan Cang's head high and faced the Dong Fu army. He shouted again, "Killing a grandmaster of the Dong Fu Nation is as easy as slaughtering a dog!"
The void trembled, and the sound waves were like the sea. The sound waves shook the heavens and spread in all directions. Everyone heard it clearly.
Another eighth stage Martial Path master in the Dong Fu Nation army had fallen at the hands of Ye Xing.
In the Dong Fu city, cheers shook the sky. The people of the Fallen Star Kingdom were very happy and excited.
Now, the soldiers and mercenaries of the Fallen Star Kingdom finally understood that Ye Xing had such terrifying strength. He could even kill a peak eighth stage Martial Path master. No wonder Ye Xing dared to challenge all the grandmasters of the Dong Fu Nation.
Previously, they thought that Ye Xing was courting death. Now, it seemed that Ye Xing was completely confident that he would win. He had deliberately set up a trap and waited for the Martial Dao Grandmasters of the Dongfu Nation to jump into.
With such a heaven-defying martial dao master, the Dong Fu Nation would be at a disadvantage in the one-on-one battle between the two armies.
The people of the Fallen Star Kingdom were very excited and overjoyed.
On the other hand, the soldiers of the Dong Fu Nation were furious. They had the upper hand in the one-on-one battle yesterday, but because of Ye Xing, they were at a disadvantage again and again. Even Beishan Cang had died at the hands of Ye Xing. How many chiliarchs in the Dong Fu Nation army could go against Ye Xing?
However, there would always be someone stronger. Beishan Cang was not the strongest eighth stage Martial Path master in the Dong Fu Nation army.
Soon, another person rushed out of the Dong Fu Nation army and charged at Ye Xing.
This time, the martial dao grandmaster was not from the Liuchuan army, but from the Dongxuan army. It was Dongxuan Mo from the Dongxuan family.
Dongxuan Mo was a peak eighth stage Martial Path master. His combat strength was a level higher than Beishan Cang's. Just like Shi Jingxiang's position in the Dong Fu Nation army, Dongxuan Mo was the top chiliarch of the four armies.
Among the eighth stage Martial Path masters, Dongxuan Mo was almost invincible.
With Dongxuan Mo's appearance, the angry soldiers of the Dong Fu Nation could not help but regain some of their morale. Many of them shouted Dongxuan Mo's name, hoping that he could kill Ye Xing and bring glory to the Dong Fu Nation.
On the Dong Shan side, many of the soldiers of the Fallen Star Kingdom looked grim as well.
Although Shi Jingxiang, who had killed five of the Fallen Star Kingdom's centurions, was the one who had won the limelight yesterday, Dongxuan Mo's reputation was not inferior to Shi Jingxiang's.
He had killed a chiliarch in the late stage of Lv 8 from the Luoxing Kingdom. Moreover, he was evenly matched with a Lv 8 supreme power master in the army of the Luoxing Kingdom who was almost invincible in the same realm.
Dongxuan Mo did not waste any words when he entered the arena. He immediately killed Ye Xing.
At this moment, any words were superfluous. Only death was the real outcome. If he died, all the harsh words he said before would be useless. If he lived, killing the other party was more impactful than any words.
Dongxuan Mo's mastery of movement techniques was extremely high. His upper class movement technique had surpassed mastery and was close to perfection.
In addition, his movement technique was extremely strange. His entire person faded like a shadow and finally disappeared completely, making others unable to see him at all.
No matter how fast one's movement technique was, there should still be a shadow. However, Dongxuan Mo did not even have a shadow.
This was the Dongxuan family's heirloom, Shadowstrike. Shadowstrike was not a martial technique, nor was it a lightness skill. It was not even a cultivation method, but an auxiliary martial skill that could be used in conjunction with any martial skill cultivation.
Once it was integrated into the movement technique, the movement technique would become invisible. It was extremely strange and could kill without a trace.
Dongxuan Mo had killed many Martial Path masters of the same level just by relying on this movement technique that made his opponent unable to see him.
How could one fight when one did not even know where the opponent was? And by the time Dong Xuanmo appeared, it would definitely be a fatal strike. By the time they discovered his figure, it would already be too late.
Shadowstrike was Dongxuan Mo's trump card.
Unfortunately, he had met Ye Xing. Ye Xing was his nemesis. The moment Dongxuan Mo disappeared, Ye Xing immediately used the super brain's scanning function. Once again, Dongxuan Mo's figure was discovered by Ye Xing.
However, it was not seen by Ye Xing's eyes, but by the super brain's scanning function. There was a scanning area in the super brain that allowed Ye Xing to see Dongxuan Mo's every movement clearly.
When Dongxuan Mo was hidden, his speed was not particularly fast. To Ye Xing, that speed was no different from standing still.
Ye Xing snorted inwardly. He did not attack Dongxuan Mo directly. Instead, he pretended to be panicked and turned around, exposing his back to the other party.
Dongxuan Mo was about to circle to Ye Xing's back for a sneak attack when Ye Xing's back happened to be facing him. This made Dongxuan Mo overjoyed. This was equivalent to giving him a great opportunity.
How could Dongxuan Mo not seize such a good opportunity? At this moment, a cold glint flashed in his eyes. His figure was like lightning as he charged towards Ye Xing, arriving behind Ye Xing in an instant.
The black dagger in his hand pierced towards Ye Xing's heart from the back.
