Open up and break into another world

Arrogant!

Too arrogant!

Everyone at the birthday celebration battle was infected by Xu Ming's arrogance!

But when one lives in this world, shouldn't one be wantonly arrogant when it's time to be arrogant? And the key is—Xu Ming has the capital to be arrogant!

Xu Ming just stood in the center of the arena, pointing at the faces of the First Prince and Envoy Zhao to provoke them, but they didn't even dare to fart—this is the capital of arrogance!

Envoy Zhao's face was so dark that water could drip from it. He gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice to Xu Ming: "Boy, don't be too rampant. Being too rampant will lead to a miserable death!"

"Oh, Envoy Zhao, are you threatening me?" Xu Ming said loudly, "Being too rampant will lead to a miserable death? I'd like to see just how miserable it will be!"

What's going on?

Envoy Zhao is threatening him?

Not many of those present were fools; they immediately realized that Envoy Zhao must be threatening Xu Ming through voice transmission.

"Damn, that's too shameless! He can't win, so he resorts to threatening through voice transmission?"

"Damn, what kind of skill is threatening through voice transmission? If he has the ability, he should send a genius up there!"

"Send a genius up? The seven geniuses from the Barbarian Sect have already been slapped away, so who else dares to go up?"

"That's true…"

"Isn't it said that the Barbarian Sect is a sacred ground of martial arts? Why is there someone like Envoy Zhao? If that's what the sacred ground of martial arts is like, then it seems it's not even as good as some of the small and medium-sized martial houses in our Cloud Arise City!"

"Indeed! Seeing someone like Envoy Zhao really makes me lose all hope in the Barbarian Sect! I originally wanted to join the Barbarian Sect, but now I really have no interest at all; even if the Barbarian Sect begs me to go, I won't go!"

"I guess, in the Barbarian Sect, anyone who can withstand three slaps from Xu Ming would be considered a very powerful genius!"

"I think so too!"

The discussions in the audience only made Envoy Zhao's face turn green and then red. But Envoy Zhao is worthy of being an old driver among the shameless; he's used to being shameless, and he doesn't even blink when he starts talking nonsense: "Xu Ming, don't spout blood. When have I ever threatened you through voice transmission?"

While shouting nonsense, Envoy Zhao also secretly sent another voice transmission: "Boy, just be arrogant as much as you want, anyway, you're dead!"

Xu Ming smiled disdainfully: "Envoy Zhao, whether you've threatened me or not, I don't think that's important. Now, I'll just emphasize one point, you must all remember it well—any genius sent out by the First Prince's side, I'll slap them all! One comes up, one gets slapped away!"

"Got it?" Saying that, Xu Ming left Envoy Zhao with a disdainful figure and stepped down from the arena.

Envoy Zhao clenched his fists, released them, and then clenched them again, finally reluctantly letting them go.

"Hmph! A gentleman takes revenge; ten years is not too late!" Envoy Zhao comforted himself, "Let it be for now, anyway, after the birthday celebration battle is over, there will be plenty of opportunities to kill him!"

Envoy Zhao has chickened out!

It also represents that the First Prince's side has been completely cowed by Xu Ming alone!

"Really useless!" Xu Ming thought to himself, "I originally thought that Number Six and Number Seven would come on stage, so I would have two more slaps to deliver!"

Xu Ming's cheat effect can last for twelve hours. Now he's only delivered a few slaps, and it's already useless, which makes Xu Ming feel quite wasteful.

Throughout this entire process, Wen Shuai became more and more excited as he watched: "Brother Xu Ming is too fierce! He's simply as fierce as a beast!"

At a time like today, Wen Shuai is of course most happy to see the First Prince lose face. Throughout the entire birthday celebration battle, the First Prince couldn't even win a single match, which simply made Wen Shuai overjoyed—without a doubt, this means that his chances of competing for the throne will be much greater!

"I didn't expect that I would be able to befriend a genius like Brother Xu Ming unintentionally!"

Wen Shuai now thinks that befriending Xu Ming with all his heart was really the most correct choice he has ever made in his life.

Some are happy, some are sad.

The more Wen Shuai watched this birthday celebration battle, the happier he became, while the First Prince naturally became more and more anxious as he watched.

It's just that, no matter how anxious he is, it's useless!

"The situation is very bad…" The First Prince frowned, and finally could only sigh, "Give up on the birthday celebration battle!"

The Emperor, Wen Mantuo, seemed to be watching the birthday celebration battle absentmindedly, but in reality, everything on and off the stage was seen in his shrewd eyes.

"Xu Ming's secret skill is heaven-defying, not only is its power huge, but it can also last for so long… I'm afraid even the Barbarian Sect doesn't have this kind of secret skill!" Wen Mantuo also thought that Xu Ming had used some heaven-defying secret skill to have such strength, "Moreover, the few strange stones he took out to increase mental power are also not available in the Barbarian Sect…"

Wen Mantuo began to brainwash himself: "It seems that the mysterious master behind Xu Ming has a very terrifying background!"

How could he have thought that there was no mysterious master behind Xu Ming at all; what he had was an invincible cheat that was stronger than any master!

"I suddenly thought of two words…" Watching the genius brought by Envoy Zhao being abused by Xu Ming like a dog, Wen Mantuo suddenly had a feeling, "Foundation."

The hunched black-clothed figure and the Military Lord looked at each other and asked in unison, "It seems that Your Majesty has already made a decision."

Saying that, the three of them tacitly and obscurely glanced at Wen Shuai.

Wen Mantuo said, “Although the Liang family in the Barbaric Sect has risen rapidly, like the sun in the sky, its foundation is far inferior to that of the Gu family! The Gu family has been in charge of the Barbaric Sect for thousands of years and has endured for a long time, there must be a reason for this. This time, I will take a gamble and bet on the Gu family!”

Betting on the Gu family means that the First Prince cannot be chosen as the heir. Then who else can be the heir to the throne?

The Birthday Celebration Battle is quietly coming to an end.

“Lord Gu.” Yue Jian walked up to Gu Hanmo with some disappointment. “It seems that I have no hope of entering the Barbaric Sect?”

Gu Hanmo once said that whoever could win first place in the Birthday Celebration Battle would be given a place to go to the Barbaric Sect. Although Yue Jian performed well, the first place in the Birthday Celebration Battle was definitely out of his reach—compared to Xu Ming, all the geniuses at this year's Birthday Celebration Battle paled in comparison.

Yue Jian cannot get first place, so he cannot get the place to go to the Barbaric Sect.

Gu Hanmo did not answer directly, but asked, “Yue Jian, what do you think of your talent compared to those disciples of the Barbaric Sect?”

Yue Jian thought for a while and said frankly, “I am not as good as them!”

“Those disciples are only at the bottom of the Barbaric Sect. With the Barbaric Sect's mechanism of selecting the superior and eliminating the inferior, those few people will probably be trapped in the Xiantian realm for the rest of their lives, with no hope of condensing their Dan—do you think you can compete with them if you go to the Barbaric Sect?”

“Difficult!” Yue Jian said frankly.

Talent is something that is difficult to make up for with diligence. If talent is not as good as others, it is useless to work to death.

“You can't even compete with these bottom-level disciples of the Barbaric Sect, so what's the point of you going to the Barbaric Sect?” Gu Hanmo said directly.

Yue Jian listened with a burst of dismay: “Yes… what can I do if my talent is not as good as others?”

Seeing Yue Jian was a little depressed, Gu Hanmo said again: “To be honest, if you insist on entering the Barbaric Sect, I can take you in!”

Yue Jian's eyes lit up.

“However, I suggest that after you break through the Xiantian realm in the Barbaric Martial Academy, you should travel around and find your own path of martial arts; that way, one day, you may still have hope of breaking through to the Ningdan realm! Otherwise, forgive me for speaking frankly, I am afraid that you will have no hope of condensing your Dan in this life!—The choice is yours.”

Yue Jian fell into a deep struggle.

Entering the Barbaric Sect has always been his pursuit; but now, Gu Hanmo tells him that with the Barbaric Sect's mechanism of selecting the superior and eliminating the inferior, he will have no chance to condense his Dan if he goes to the Barbaric Sect. On the contrary, if he travels around, he may have a little hope of reaching the Ningdan realm.

Is it entering the Barbaric Sect?

Or is it pursuing the Ningdan realm?

Yue Jian suddenly thought about why he embarked on the path of martial arts. Was it to join the “assembly line” of the sect's selection and then be screened out?

No!

Yue Jian remembered his yearning for wielding a sword and roaming the martial world when he was young; he remembered the joy of breaking through himself again and again during cultivation.

Suddenly, a flash of understanding flashed in his heart.

“Lord Gu, I have made my choice!”

… …

The Birthday Celebration Battle ended in an atmosphere of enthusiasm.

After the Birthday Celebration Battle, it was the moment that the First Prince Wen Man and the Third Prince Wen Shuai were most looking forward to and most concerned about—the ownership of the throne was about to be revealed.

At this moment, the First Prince Wen Man and the Third Prince Wen Shuai became unusually nervous. The two of them had been fighting each other since childhood, wasn't it all for today?

At this moment, who will soar into the sky and who will fall into hell will be revealed immediately.

Wen Man and Wen Shuai, these two royal brothers looked at each other, their eyes full of complexity; then, they surprisingly sighed in unison.

Immediately afterwards, the two returned to a state of holding their breath and concentrating, nervously anticipating.

At this time, Wen Mantuo had also stood up. He looked at his eldest son Wen Man, and then looked at Wen Shuai; as for the other princes, they were directly skipped by him.

The fatherly affection of the royal family is very different from that of other families.

“Your Majesty!” Elder Du suddenly stood up and cupped his hands. “Jia Ying is very kind to me. No matter how Your Majesty chooses, I will always be loyal to the Third Prince.”

Chen Jiaying is the birth mother of the Third Prince.

Wen Mantuo was not surprised by Elder Du's choice.

“Wen Mantuo, old man, also has a word!” Only Yun Qi Elder dared to call Wen Mantuo “boy.”

“Senior Yun Qi, please speak!” Wen Mantuo still respected Yun Qi Elder, after all, the other party had given him guidance.

“If the Third Prince ascends the throne, I am willing to assist the Third Prince for a few years with my aging body!” Yun Qi Elder said unexpectedly.

What!?

Elder Yun Qi is willing to assist the Third Prince!?

Why!?

No one cares about Elder Yun Qi's ability to govern the country. However, a great expert of Xiantian Completion is willing to assist, even if it is only for a few years, it is of great benefit to the Feiyun Kingdom royal family!

Suddenly, within the Feiyun Kingdom, the only two Xiantian Completion experts besides Wen Mantuo stood on Wen Shuai's side! On the side of the First Prince, there was only an outsider, Envoy Zhao, who was Xiantian Completion.

Wen Shuai's situation suddenly climbed to the peak.

“Elder Yun Qi!” The First Prince gritted his teeth in hatred. His situation today is already bad enough, and you, Elder Yun Qi, still have to come up and add another knife…

Wen Mantuo responded to Elder Yun Qi with a smile.

Then, after some polite remarks and official words, he got to the point: “…The heir I choose is…”

I originally planned to take a rest today with two updates, but when I saw a soldier brother in the group, I went, added another update, and paid tribute to the soldier brother!
