Confucianism under Heaven

Chapter 331 The Mountain Beast Awakens

Chapter 331 The Mountain Beasts Awaken

Countless people stared at Ye Ru, and all fell silent. After all, they had witnessed the previous battle with their own eyes. How could a mere novice perform such a feat?

"You've won. I'm completely convinced. This sacred page is yours."

Taking a deep breath, Mo Qingshui said with a complicated yet unwilling expression, "I originally thought that with my talent as a scholar and the chivalrous spirit of the Mo family, I could easily defeat my opponent, but I never expected that the result would be such a failure."

"Thank you very much."

Ye Ru was secretly delighted. He hadn't expected to have another Holy Page. It seemed that he now had enough Holy Pages to fill a hand.

Moreover, the opponent is a person who can accept defeat and has the demeanor of a great general. If he were promoted a few more times, he would definitely become a capable person in Jin.

The others looked at Ye Ru with envy. Although the Holy Page had lost its Holy Power, it could still be restored if placed in the Holy Temple.

"let's go."

Ye Ru carefully put away the sacred page, then waved to the wondrous spirit of heaven and earth that was staring blankly at him in the distance.

"Since we're here, why leave? Why not stay and get those ten holy pages together?"

The familiar voice made Ye Ru's body stiffen instantly, and a murderous aura suddenly rose from within him.

At the same time, two sounds of wind breaking rang out, and then they arrived next to Mo Qingshui.

"Ye Ru, how have you been?"

The sound was loud and clear, which caused another stir in the crowd.

"Han Fengxian?"

"No way, one of the four masters of the Mohist school isn't enough, they've even sent Han Fengxian, the Legalist school's disciple. This is really going to be interesting."

"I heard that Mo Qingshui and Han Fengxian are getting close, which proves that Han Fengxian has come to confront me?"

Many people whispered among themselves after seeing Han Fengxian.

"Hehe, Brother Ye, have you forgotten your elder brother? We met in the King's Ruins."

Han Fengxian smiled as he looked at Ye Ru, but his eyes were filled with a chilling aura that began to emanate from all around him.

"How could I forget... You left such a deep impression on me back then..."

Ye Ru turned around, his fists clenched, his eyes filled with intense killing intent, and his words practically burst out.

"Don't look at me like that. Anger won't solve anything. Come on, beat me."

Han Fengxian reached out his hand and beckoned to Ye Ru.

Ye Ru clenched his fists, staring at Han Fengxian, then suddenly smiled, though his eyes were like sharp blades:

"Don't worry, I will go to your Jin state to learn from you. It won't take long. As for you, just wait, I will definitely defeat you in front of the entire Jin state."

"Besides, this time I defeated one of your Jin scholars and even gained a sacred page. Whether it's fame or gains, I've already obtained them, so why should I fight with you anymore?"

"Moreover, you are a successful candidate in the imperial examinations, while I am just a student in the preliminary examinations. Isn't it bullying the weak by fighting like this?"

Ye Ru's slightly sarcastic words made Han Fengxian's smile freeze, and his face turned somewhat gloomy:

"You quick-witted brat, I'll be waiting for you."

He originally intended to cripple the other party here, but he didn't expect them to be so shrewd.

"I say, you two, if you have so much energy, why don't you smash this tombstone and fish out the sacred page?"

At this moment, a young man with a blade of grass in his mouth and a nonchalant look jumped out and said with a smile.

This person made Han Fengxian narrow his eyes slightly, but a look of seriousness appeared on his face.

"Brother Guanhai, how have you been? I wonder how the Half-Saint is doing?"

After a long pause, Han Fengxian smiled slightly, bowed, and said.

"My master is doing well, but he seems to be quite concerned about Brother Ye."

Guan Hai's lips curled into a playful smile as he looked at Ye Rudao.

These words undoubtedly caused a huge uproar here.

Guan Hai was the last disciple of Guan Yu, a half-saint of the Wei Kingdom. He possessed extraordinary wisdom and an exceptional memory. After three years of training on the Wei Kingdom's border, he directly annihilated the invading army of the neighboring Song Kingdom, and later became famous in one battle.

He was one of the ten people who heard the Dao.

But listening to Guan Hai's words, how could it be that the renowned Wei Kingdom's Half-Saint Guan Yu was actually quite concerned about a mere student?

Han Fengxian's face stiffened for a moment. He knew exactly what the other party meant: Ye Ru was under the protection of their Wei Kingdom here, and he couldn't touch him. This immediately dispelled the other party's idea.

"That's good. Let's smash this tombstone together, try to get the Holy Page, and then head to the ancient temple."

"Alright, Brother Han, please go first."

Guan Hai looked at Han Fengxian, gestured for him to enter, and said.

"Ah."

Han Fengxian nodded, then took a deep breath, turned his hand, and a glowing ancient ruler appeared in his hand.

"Having no eyes that can see three feet ahead? Isn't that a tool of Legalism?"

Some well-informed people frowned upon seeing this scene and said...

"No, it's just a replica."

Han Fengxian shook his head and said with a smile, but there was a hint of arrogance in his tone.

This "eyes that see no three feet" technique is a treasure of their Legalist school, and even replicas are few and far between.

This demonstrates his status within the Legalist school of thought in the state of Jin.

"go with!"

With a flick of his hand, Han Fengxian unleashed the Eyeless One, which trailed a long tail of energy, and slammed it fiercely toward the tombstone.

"It's my turn."

Guan Hai spat out the straw in his mouth, and immediately a book with a strong, damp smell appeared behind him. The book flipped through the pages rapidly, as if it were formed from water droplets.

The next moment, countless water jets erupted, piercing through countless pebbles and striking the tombstone heavily.

"So this is the method of the Holy Families... Truly terrifying."

Seeing these attacks, Ye Ru's face also turned solemn. This Han Fengxian is indeed an unknown nobody. It seems that he needs to improve his strength as soon as possible and complete the Sacred Page quickly, which is equivalent to his natal spirit treasure.

As Ye Ru was pondering, a wild, furious roar suddenly resounded throughout the land, followed by the surrounding mountains and rivers, where rocks began to tumble down.

The rubble fell from the sky, and an astonishing force burst forth in all directions in an instant.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Ru gazed at the distant rocks. It seemed that the rocks were moving, and it was clear that the previous falling rocks had originated from this guy's body.

Rumble!

The mountain rock suddenly rose from the ground, and a powerful demonic force began to spread outwards, causing the energy within many people to slow down considerably.

A solemn expression appeared on Ye Ru's face. He never expected that this strange rock was actually a demonic beast!
