Whether it was the elderly or the children, whether it was women or unmarried daughters, whether it was the literate or the illiterate, they all gathered behind Fang Yun at this moment, marching forward in a mighty manner.
Fang Yun was like their spiritual support and the brightest star in the night sky, leading them to the entrance of the Academy of Literature.
The Academy of Literature was surrounded by cloth strips by the bailiffs to create a wide open space for the competition. More than ten bailiffs stood guard around the open space, and there were bloodstains everywhere.
Inside the arena, the four High Scholars and five Elementary Scholars of the Qing Kingdom sat in their chairs. Across from them sat a few officials from the Jing Kingdom. Each of the officials had a heavy expression on their faces. Among them, Feng Yuanjun of the Fu Wen Academy had the worst expression.
Outside the arena, a Jingguo Elementary Scholar was being supported by a few people. He was wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and there was a large pool of blood in front of him.
An arrogant voice came from the side door of the Academy of Literature.
"Hahaha, Jingguo trash, are you here to die? Idiots! People of Jingguo, as long as you kneel in front of us and beg for mercy and say that Jingguo is not as good as Gyeongo, we will spare you. "
"What are you looking at? But you are still human. Fang Yun, that coward, doesn't even dare to come. He is not as good as you. What? Are you angry? I am Feng Shaoyu of Gyeongo. If you are not convinced, come and beat me! "
Among the nine scholars of Gyeongo, other than two who were smiling, most of them were expressionless. However, two of them were frowning. They were very dissatisfied with Feng Shaoyu's words.
Fang Yun understood halfway through. Feng Shaoyu was probably a member of the School of Vertical and Horizontal Thinking. Sometimes, he was full of eloquence, and sometimes he would say that the dead were alive and the living were dead. However, when necessary, such as when two countries were negotiating or challenging each other, he would use all kinds of methods to infuriate the other party.
Moreover, the words of the School of Vertical and Horizontal Thinking carried the power of literary courage and talent. It was easy to deceive or anger others.
Everyone present knew that Feng Shaoyu was extremely arrogant on the surface. In fact, everything he did was to lure out Fang Yun. He would never be so arrogant. However, even though they knew that he was like this, many people still couldn't help themselves.
"Feng Shaoyu, right? I'm coming for you! "Fang Yun said as he walked forward.
The officials hurriedly stood up and looked at Fang Yun with surprise and joy.
"Who are you?" Feng Shaoyu's face was full of disdain, but his eyes were extremely vigilant. It was obvious that he was not as arrogant as he seemed.
"Jingguo Fang Yun!"
As Fang Yun spoke, he walked towards the ring that was surrounded by bailiffs.
The nine Gyeongo people all stood up, but Feng Shaoyu was not angry. Instead, he revealed a trace of delight from his scheme succeeding.
"Hahaha. Fang Yun, no matter how talented you are, you were still lured out by me, weren't you? "Feng Shaoyu continued to mock him.
Fang Yun said calmly, "No matter what you say, it won't anger me. As for the matter of you luring me out, I believe that when I hit you, you will be filled with regret. "
"Haha! Hit me? Fine, as long as you beat me in a literary battle, I'll let you hit me however you want! Even if you want to kill me, I won't have a problem! However, I, Feng Shaoyu, am still a top scorer of a province. You have to at least beat an elementary scholar before you have the right to compete with me. When the time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless! "
At the end of his words. Feng Shaoyu's gaze suddenly became sharp.
Fang Yun dao: "Fine, I'll see how ruthless you are first, then I'll hit you." As he spoke, Fang Yun looked at the nine Gyeongo people.
"Gyeongo's elementary scholars. Who wants to have a literary battle with me first? " Fang Yun straightened his body and lifted his chin slightly. A sharp sword like aura emanated from his body, piercing the eyes of the Gyeongo people.
The Gyeongo people were secretly shocked. They guessed that Fang Yun's talent or literary palace was too strong, so the aura that leaked out from him formed a substantial deterrent force.
A young man wearing a black Juren robe walked over and clasped his hands towards Fang Yun. He said: "Fang Maocai, we all serve different masters and I have to repay a debt of gratitude. I have no choice but to participate in the literary battle. Please forgive me if I offend you."
"You're from the Xi family?" Fang Yun asked.
"Xi Mo Lu."
"You want to use your despicable actions to tarnish the Xi family's reputation?"
"Fang Maocai, you've misunderstood. I'm not here to target you. I'm only here to help my Gyeongo friends. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you or tarnish the name of the Xi family, "Xi Mo Lu said.
Fang Yun sneered: "Gyeongo people humiliated my Jingguo's innocent women, but you didn't do anything. Gyeongo suppressed my Jingguo for more than ten years in order to annex my Jingguo, but you didn't do anything. My country shed blood and tears to fight against the barbarians, but you didn't do anything! Now, Gyeongo is bullying my Jingguo people, and you're doing something! If this was a battle of the Holy Path between you and us, and it was related to the foundation of a family's Holy Path, then I wouldn't say anything. But you, a Half-saint family member, humiliated my Jingguo people, hurt my Jingguo people, and now you have the face to say that you won't do anything! You won't do anything? I'll do it! "
Xi Mo Lu was embarrassed and angry. He was embarrassed because he shouldn't have come to Jingguo. The Half-saint family rarely participated in the literary battle between the two countries. They either schemed behind the scenes or fought with the other Half-saint families in Notre-Dame. He was angry because he was a member of the Half-saint family and had never been humiliated like this before, especially when the other party was a member of a poor family.
Fang Yun paused for a moment and looked at the ten Gyeongo people seriously. His eyes became brighter than the stars in the sky, and there was a faint sense of grandeur about him. Then, he slowly said something that shocked everyone present.
"I want the world to know that the people of Jingguo can be defeated, but they can't be humiliated! Therefore, I will defeat all ten of you here and wash away the humiliation of Jingguo. When I become a scholar, I will personally cross the river and fight Gyeongo! When I become a scholar, I will fight the ten prefectures and take over the land of Gyeongo! I want all the scum of the human race to know that not only can you not bear the price of humiliating me, but you will also be recorded in the history books and become a laughingstock for generations to come! This is the only way to hurt you, and only this way will you scum not dare to fight among yourselves! "
"You …" Feng Shaoyu was about to speak when Fang Yun interrupted him.
"Shut up! Aren't you Feng Shaoyu of Gyeongo? It's enough to be beaten up! Which one of you will go first? What do you want to compete in? Tell me! "Fang Yun's gaze fell on the five scholars.
The five scholars were all older than Fang Yun and were all geniuses of their prefectures. However, at this moment, they were completely suppressed by Fang Yun's aura and none of them dared to speak.
Xi Molu stared at Fang Yun. He didn't expect Fang Yun to be so fearless as to make such a huge vow. Once he achieved something in the "Sage of Valor", he would be unstoppable.
He also didn't expect Fang Yun to not only challenge a country, but also a prefecture. Even the current head of the ten nations, the scholar of Lu, couldn't achieve this feat. He could only slowly conquer the prefectures one by one.
There was a moment of silence in front of the academy. One of the scholars from Gyeongo stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Fang Yun. "You and I are both scholars, we don't have the guts to compete in literature. I know that your poetry is the best in the ten nations, I'm not stupid enough to compete with you. Therefore, I want to compete with you in terms of talent! "
Fang Yun's expression was calm as he asked: "How many of my Jing Guo's people did you injure and kill?"
The scholar revealed a nervous expression and did not dare to answer. Beside him, Feng Yuan Jun immediately said, "He injured seven of our Jing Country's scholars. One person's hands and feet were chopped off by his war poem, two are unconscious and four are lightly injured."
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Then, let's begin."
Feng Yuanjun held the official seal in his hand and said slowly, "Since it's a competition of talent, I will explain the rules. I will use my official seal to gather talent from the Divine Temple and control the vitality of the world for the two of you to fight over. Each of you can only use an inch of talent. The more stable your literary palace is and the more condensed your talent is, the more vitality you can control. The more vitality you can control, the stronger the vitality impact will be. "
Fang Yun had long known the rules. The competition of talent was originally used by the Notre-Dame to encourage everyone to stabilize their literary palaces and condense their talent. It was to prevent students from neglecting their foundation for the sake of pursuing the quantity of their talent, which would cause their talent to collapse and their literary palaces to shatter.
Feng Yuanjun paused for a moment and asked, "Do the two of you have any questions?"
"No questions," the two of them answered in unison.
"Good. I will host this competition on behalf of the Divine Temple and will not be biased towards anyone. If you feel that it's unfair, you can ask for the Divine Temple's judgment or appeal to the Notre-Dame. The vitality impact is extremely dangerous, the two of you still have a chance to go back on your word. "
The two of them looked at each other and did not speak.
The night wind blew and everyone's clothes fluttered. Everyone kept quiet and quietly watched Fang Yun's first competition.
"In that case, let the competition begin!" Feng Yuanjun held up the official seal and it flew into the air, releasing a transparent vitality shield that was thirty feet in diameter and shrouding the two of them.
Fang Yun and the scholar saluted each other and then straightened their bodies.
The scholar said seriously, "Jingguo has declined and lost to the barbarians. Such a weak country is the shame of the human race. My Gyeongo accepting Jingguo is a matter of course, benevolence and righteousness!"
After saying his reason, the scholar's body was suddenly surrounded by a strong gust of wind. His clothes fluttered loudly and seemed to be spreading outwards.
Fang Yun said, "I will fight with you because I want to defeat Feng Shaoyu!"
After Fang Yun finished speaking, the gust of wind around the scholar suddenly dissipated and his clothes did not move.
Before the crowd could react, Fang Yun's body suddenly emitted an ear-piercing sound and a gust of wind swept past. The scholar looked as if he had been hit by an invisible bull demon. His body flew backwards and crashed into the invisible shield with a 'peng' sound. The sound of bones breaking could be heard and he spat out blood as he fell down the shield and fainted.
The crowd was silent. Fang Yun had only been a scholar for less than three months but the amount of vitality he could use was at least three times that of his opponent. This meant that his talent and the stability of his literary palace were at least three times that of his opponent.
Ever since Gyeongo set up the competition in front of the academy, this was the first time Jingguo had won and it was a clean victory.
"Good!" Fang Yun's classmates suddenly shouted.
"Fang Yun wins!"
"Fang Yun is invincible!"
The crowd around the Wen Academy seemed to have exploded. They roared and cheered crazily. All of their resentment had completely erupted.
Feng Yuan Jun and the other officials' faces had been dark for the past four or five days but now they were rosy. They wanted to keep a straight face but they could not hide the smile on their faces.
At this moment, the will of all the Jingguo people seemed to have merged into one and they were invincible.
Feng Shaoyu's eyes flashed with a hint of shock but he quickly returned to normal and laughed softly.
"No wonder the higher-ups couldn't wait to send us to fight and even told me to use all the means possible! As expected! Fang Yun, you did what Li Wenying could not do! "
