Chapter 507 Unexpected Changes
"This time, the champion is Ye Ru!"
The sound echoed throughout the land, causing many people to stand up abruptly, and thunderous applause soared to the heavens.
"Won!"
Upon hearing Xie Ming announce the final result, Zhang Dong's tense heart relaxed, and he clapped and smiled.
"This time it was really dangerous."
Zhang Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then gave a wry smile and muttered to himself.
After all, Ye Ru's talent is evident to all, and if he loses or dies, it will be a huge blow to their Yanhuang Kingdom.
But now, they are relieved.
"The mission is finally complete."
Hearing the sound of blood dripping from the Three Perfections Brush, Ye Ru turned his head to look at Yan Jin, who was still staring blankly into the dead, and sighed.
Whether human or ghost scholar, they are still human, which makes him feel sad.
After all, Yan Jin was not wrong from the Ghost Scholar's perspective. Whether it was the Ghost Scholar or the human race, what they did was to make humanity stronger.
However, this view becomes an extreme one when it comes to Ghost Scholar.
Yunshui Chanxin continued to activate it, and finally healed all the hidden injuries in his body.
"Now that you are the champion, you deserve our reward. However, given your performance, we have decided to grant you the status of a citizen of Jin. What do you think?"
After the applause subsided, Xie Ming stood on the high platform and looked down at Ye Ru.
These words startled everyone present, but they quickly came to their senses.
To obtain citizenship in any country, one must make exceptional contributions to that country; otherwise, it is absolutely impossible. However, it is not impossible for someone with talent and learning to receive such an offer from these countries.
"If you enter our Jin state, I can allow you to be registered in the Confucian family's register, and you will have access to all of the Confucian family's resources. What do you say?"
While everyone was astonished, Mr. Kong's words were undoubtedly a bombshell, resounding once again.
"I can actually get into the Confucius family? No way, what incredible luck!"
Upon hearing Mr. Kong's words, the place erupted in discussion once again.
"How about it? If I were you, I definitely wouldn't be able to resist this temptation."
Looking at Ye Ru in the distance, Xie Ming said with a smile.
In contrast, Ye Ru remained unmoved. He had no interest in being from the Confucius family or the Jin state. What he wanted to do was to unite the scholars of all ten kingdoms to resist foreign aggression.
Shi Tianze looked at Xie Ming and immediately understood what was going on. It seemed that Xie Ming had also guessed it, which was why he had let Ye Ru join the Jin Kingdom.
Once Ye Ru joins the Jin Kingdom, then I will have no reason to take action myself. Moreover, with Ye Ru's talent, which is rare even in a century, he will inevitably attract the attention of the National Academy.
At that time, the National Holy Academy will definitely do its utmost to protect him; they will not allow someone who has the potential to become a half-saint to die at their hands.
"These Jin people are really despicable; they actually tried to poach our talent."
Anger flashed across Zhang Dong's face as he said resentfully.
"Don't worry, given Ye Ru's personality, he would never join. They're just humiliating themselves by doing this."
Zhang Zhi seemed to understand Ye Ru quite well, patting Zhang Dong on the shoulder to comfort him.
Under the intense gaze of many eyes, Ye Ru narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled. It seemed that the other party was also eager to extend an olive branch to him.
However, if one is truly as lacking in self-control as the other party imagines, then one is sorely mistaken.
After all, he was a transmigrator, and this body belonged to the Yanhuang Kingdom. Even if he agreed, the consciousness of this body would probably not agree.
"Well? If you agree, then the Jin state will belong to me from now on..."
“Mr. Xie, you misunderstand. I have no interest in the Jin nationality whatsoever.”
Before Xie Ming could finish speaking, Ye Ru slowly raised his head, and his clear voice resounded throughout the area, causing everyone to stir again.
"Is this guy an idiot? Everyone knows that the Jin Kingdom is far stronger than the Yanhuang Kingdom, yet they actually refused!"
"Exactly, it was obviously damaged just now."
These words made Xie Ming raise an eyebrow, and he immediately asked:
"Why? Tell me. It's incredibly difficult for others to enter our Jin Kingdom. Now we're giving you a chance, but you don't know how to cherish it. Don't tell me you don't like our Jin Kingdom."
"That's not the case. Jin has fertile land and is full of talented people. It's just a pity that I am a citizen of Yanhuang and do not want to betray my Yanhuang country for fame and fortune."
Ye Ru said calmly.
"Forced melons are never sweet. You, on the other hand, have the integrity of a true scholar, neither saddened by poverty nor eager for wealth. It is truly a blessing for the Yanhuang nation to have a scholar like you."
Nodding, Xie Ming slowly said:
"In that case, accept the reward, and after meeting His Majesty, return to your Yanhuang Kingdom."
"Wait, let's figure out something else first before we go."
At this moment, Shi Tianze's eyes flashed with a chilling light as he looked at Ye Ru and said:
"I'll ask you one more time, are you sure you don't want to become a citizen of the Jin state?"
Sensing the murderous aura, Zhang Dong, Zhang Zhi, and the others were all startled, and then their eyes widened.
The Star Ape King also raised its head, its demonic power directly locking onto Shi Tianze in the distance.
"I will not enter. I wonder what instructions Patriarch Shi has? Are you going to say that I am the murderer of Brother Shi Yu?"
Upon seeing this, Ye Ru's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show it. Instead, he looked at Shi Tianze and said...
"Isn't that so? Back then, we found some clues on Shi Yu and confirmed that it was Xiucai who did it. And in all the world, the only Xiucai who could kill a Juren is probably you, Ye Ru."
Shi Tianze sneered, his face filled with murderous intent, and said.
Outside the arena, countless people stared at Ye Ru in disbelief. Who would have thought that Ye Ru, who defeated the Ghost Scholar, was actually the one who murdered the Shi Sheng family?
"Oh no, we've been found out..."
With a hint of seriousness in his eyes, Zhang Dong felt a sense of unease. The other party was currently in Jin State's territory, so even if they wanted to run away, it was still a different story.
"It was I who did it, so what?"
With a hint of gloom in his smile, Ye Ru spoke slowly, which made Shi Tianze's face turn extremely gloomy.
"Sigh, I really tried my best."
Xie Ming looked at Ye Ru, who remained expressionless, and sighed, seemingly regretting that Ye Ru would die here today.
"No way……"
Kong Ling's mouth was slightly open as she looked at Ye Ru, a look of surprise and astonishment appearing on her pale face.
"It really is..."
The room erupted in uproar. Mr. Kong and the others were also stunned for a moment, their faces turning solemn.
Now that the other party has a grudge against Shi Tianze, even we can't say anything.
"Now you're admitting it? You said before that you didn't kill them."
Shi Tianze stood up, gripping the armrest of the chair so tightly that he crushed it to pieces. A surge of talent, like a vortex, appeared above his head and finally locked onto Ye Ru from afar.
At the same time, he felt a little disdainful, because Ye Ru had not taken responsibility for his actions.
"Because I couldn't beat you back then."
Ye Ru remained calm as he spoke.
"So, can you beat me now?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Tianze sneered and said.
"That's possible, I'd like to give it a try."
call out!
As Ye Ru finished speaking, three sounds of wind breaking echoed here, and then Zhang Dong and Zhang Zhi arrived next to Ye Ru.
"Since there are three Hanlin scholars, why don't the four of you go up? That way, you won't have no chance of winning at all."
Seeing that there were three more people, Shi Tianze took a deep breath and, under everyone's watchful eyes, leaped down onto the already extremely messy battle arena.
"What should we do? Should we take action?"
Xie Ming looked at Mr. Kong. On one side was the Shi family, and on the other was a rising star of the human race. Neither of them wanted to offend the other.
"Don't help anyone, just stay moderate."
Mr. Kong closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
"That's fine."
Xie Ming nodded and looked in that direction again.
