Chapter 999 - Leaving Behind One’s Name for Years
Chapter 999: Leaving Behind One’s Name for Years
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“No, Ping Yang can’t go, I… I oppose strongly!” Mu Qingfeng gritted his teeth and said firmly.
If they had no chance of winning, Mu Qingfeng would allow Fang Zhengzhi to do anything he wanted to do.
However, they had managed to come so far and smelt victory, how could Mu Qingfeng possibly allow such things to happen?
Although he knew Fang Zhengzhi would probably not listen to him…
He still said it out loud.
Even if his power as an individual was insufficient, what about the entire Human Alliance’s power? No matter how stubborn Fang Zhengzhi was, he should listen to everyone’s opinion, right?
That was what Mu Qingfeng thought.
After Mu Qingfeng spoke, the surrounding disciples of the Human Alliance expressed their agreements.
“I agree with Pavilion Master Mu!”
“Precisely, Ping Yang is still young. Even if she needed an opportunity to train, this is not the occasion to do it. Ping Yang will definitely lose to two Godly State experts and a Monster King like Ling Ning!”
“Exactly, the Human Alliance’s final hope cannot die in Ping Yang’s hands!”
Every single disciple of the Human Alliance had a firm expression.
“What do you mean by ‘Human Alliance’s final hope cannot die in Ping Yang’s hands’? I am very powerful, whoever who does not believe can fight with me!” Ping Yang could not hold in further after hearing this.
In fact, she was initially worried as although Fang Zhengzhi had promised her to send her in the third round, she was slightly fearful when she saw the opponents sent by the Monster Race and Demon Race.
However, even though she was fearful…
The worst case scenario was to quit!
Ping Yang had already chosen to keep silent but was still accused by others to be the one “killing” the hopes of the humankind, how could she be pleased with that kind of comments?
“…”
The disciples of the Human Alliance shut their mouths.
None of them were weak and everyone was a sage. However, no matter what, they were not powerful when they considered Ping Yang’s identity and her relationship with Fang Zhengzhi.
After all, she had powerful support!
“I have my reasons for choosing Ping Yang.” Fang Zhengzhi was initially not planning to explain himself but after considering that this battle affected the future of the Human Alliance, he decided to explain.
“What reason? Ping Yang is too weak, she cannot even defend against a Monster King like ‘Ling Ning’, what could she do if she went for the third round?” Mu Qingfeng who was usually gentle with his words became very assertive.
“Fang Zhengzhi, can we discuss this first, you may not know how powerful Gu Yuan is but I know. Why not listen to my description of his skills before you make a decision? If you still insist on sending Ping Yang after my description, I, Mo Shanshi, will definitely not object!” Mo Shanshi tried to persuade Fang Zhengzhi.
“Alright, Speak, Valley Master Mo.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.
“That’s right, we can discuss in peace. Old man Mu, you aren’t like this usually?” Mo Shanshi smiled after Fang Zhengzhi agreed.
Hearing this, Mu Qingfeng moved his lips and did not say anything else. Instead, he winked at Mo Shanshi.
His expression was obvious. He was trying to tell Mo Shanshi to describe Gu Yuan’s powers as detailed as possible.
Mo Shanshi definitely understood what Mu Qingfeng meant.
As long as Fang Zhengzhi could be persuaded, not only would Mu Qingfeng be willing to endure, but he would even be willing to get slapped.
“Elder Gu Yuan’s skills are…” As Mo Shanshi said, he lowered down his volume and set up a sound barrier within the Human Alliance. “Elder Gu entered the Holy Dao after his successful interpretation of the Eight Diagrams, even though it was not as powerful as the Dao of Asura in terms of attacking power, its defense… I won’t dare to say that I am more powerful than him, especially since he could change his opponents’ positions continuously!”
“Yes, this is very important!” Mu Qingfeng added on as he could not hold it in.
“Shut up!” Mo Shanshi finally got the chance to scold Mu Qingfeng and definitely had to make use of it. “Fang Zhengzhi, think of this… there are four people and only you can fight against Lin Yu and Chou Qi. If he could change your position at any time, then you would be able to take care of the others, right?”
“Hmm… this is very important!” Mu Qingfeng really could not hold it in.
“Old brat, will you die if you kept silent? Can you let me finish?” Mo Shanshi was mad and did not care about Mu Qingfeng’s reputation.
“Alright, you continue, I am listening.” Mu Qingfeng was not mad and was in fact submissive.
Meanwhile, Fang Zhengzhi was patiently listening and admiring the skit put up by the pair of old “friends”.
Not bad, the two old men were good at coordinating with each other.
They had put on a very good skit. One was acting as a firm and strict person and the other acted as the one trying to persuade others.
Fang Zhengzhi was really reluctant to dismiss them. He could only give a sigh in his heart, ‘continue performing, if you persuade me, you win.’
That was what went through Fang Zhengzhi’s mind.
Fang Zhengzhi heard the description of Gu Yuan’s skills and had to admit that he was powerful.
In order for Mo Shanshi to say that he might not even be as good at defense as Gu Yuan, Gu Yuan’s defense skills must be really excellent.
Moreover, the ability to change one’s position was somewhat interesting. It was equivalent to setting up a formation in a constrained space and make use of the formation to lead and giving one the ability to ‘shift forms’.
However, was this useful?
It would be in an ordinary battle.
However, it was useless in today’s battle. In fact, not only was it useless, but it would disrupt Fang Zhengzhi’s tempo and steps of attack.
The reason was simple…
Fang Zhengzhi chose Yan Xiu and Yan Qianli.
Who were they?
Swords!
Two most powerful swords for attacking!
The Dao of Asura was a Dao that made use of attack as a means of defense and would not take back its attack after taking action.
At this moment, introducing a Gu Yuan who was powerful at defense and could change the four people’s positions casually was definitely causing a disruption.
Of course, Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi had their own opinions.
They were old and liked the battle to be steady.
Fang Zhengzhi could understand this. Gu Yuan was indeed the most suitable person to send if he wanted a steady battle.
That was because Gu Yuan could perfectly make up for the lack of defense ability of Yan Xiu and Yan Qianli.
However, it caused a problem too.
The reason was simple…
This was not a battle that required steadiness.
There was only one reason to explain why ‘Chou Qi’ was willing to give up on the second round of competition: he had absolute confidence that he could win the third round.
Although Fang Zhengzhi did not know where ‘Chou Qi’ got his confidence from, he knew that the third round could be described as a battle that would not end until one party was wiped out.
As the saying went, enemies meet on a narrow path and the brave one wins.
Fang Zhengzhi chose to use the two most powerful “swords” with the highest attacking power, one on his left and one on his right, so how could he possibly choose another shield to be placed in front of the swords?
That was an ironic behavior and Fang Zhengzhi was not foolish.
As for why he chose Ping Yang…
It was not because of his stubbornness. In fact, it was because Ping Yang was the only “unpredictable factor” in the battle. She was a weakness, a weakness that could cause the loss of the Human Alliance.
By right, Ping Yang would become the first target of the two Monster Kings.
That was precisely Fang Zhengzhi’s plan.
For a battle between two individuals with a similar level of power, if both parties decide to be reserved, the outcome of this battle would probably not be out even after seven days and nights.
In the end, willpower would be the determining factor.
Fang Zhengzhi did not have that level of willpower to fight with ‘Chou Qi’ and Lin Yu. After all, be it Yan Xiu or Yan Qianli, none of them were in the defense line.
Attacking would be the most exhaustive!
Since Fang Zhengzhi chose to attack, he would definitely not prolong the battle. He was not afraid of ‘Chou Qi’ to attack him but was afraid that ‘Chou Qi’ would not attack. Therefore, he wanted to put a “point of weakness” out there for the Monster Race and Demon Race.
‘Come and attack us!’
‘Let’s attack each other!’
Fang Zhengzhi wanted to force ‘Chou Qi’ to attack him with their weakness.
Of course, this plan was both extremely risky and profitable. However, fortunately, Ping Yang, the “weakness” could read his mind.
Since he had decided on his plan, how would he be easily swayed by Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi’s “skit”?
“Fang Zhengzhi, with this, you can rest assured and attack without having to worry about Yan Xiu and Yan Qianli. You just need to find an opportunity to severely injure the two Monster Kings before the three other teammates put a restraint on Lin Yu. Then, you can fight it out with Chou Qi and I am at least 50 percent sure we will win!” Mo Shanshi’s eyes lit up as though he saw the door of victory opening for him.
“That’s right, with the help of Elder Gu, he will definitely try his best to help you take Chou Qi down!” Mu Qingfeng nodded immediately and was completely unafraid of Mo Shanshi’s scolding.
“Hmm…” Fang Zhengzhi nodded like a chicken.
Mo Shanshi smiled.
Mu Qingfeng also smiled.
After spending so much efforts to describe Gu Yuan’s skills in detail, Mo Shanshi and Mu Qingfeng were indeed very good at collaborating.
Especially Mu Qingfeng’s expression when he was mad but did not dare to express himself, wanted to say but was afraid of being scolded, and choosing to say even after he was being scolded. The conflicting thoughts and the mixed expression of hate and love…
One was willing to hit the other while the other was willing to be hit. That skit was so real and well-performed.
Fang Zhengzhi was almost persuaded.
“So, Fang Zhengzhi, you agreed?” Mo Shanshi asked him after exchanged glances with Mu Qingfeng.
“Agree with what?” Fang Zhengzhi was confused.
“Agree with sending Gu Yuan up!” said Mo Shanshi.
“Oh, you are referring to this? I will still send Ping Yang up,” said Fang Zhengzhi as though he had just woken up from his dreams.
“…”
“…”
Both Mo Shanshi and Mu Qingfeng froze on the spot.
What the f*ck!
After a painstaking round of acting, their efforts had gone to waste? After all these while, nothing had changed?
“Fang Zhengzhi did you hear us clearly? If you didn’t, I will repeat it again. This time, you must listen…” After a while, Mo Shanshi regained his senses and said while trying to suppress his anger.
“I heard you well.” Fang Zhengzhi broke off Mo Shanshi’s sentence.
“You have heard me and you are still insisting on sending Ping Yang up? What exactly did you hear?” Mo Shanshi was in disbelief.
“I have heard very clearly. You said that you will not object if I still insist on sending Ping Yang after your description of Gu Yuan’s skills,” replied Fang Zhengzhi sincerely.
“…” Mo Shanshi’s face turned green.
He was really green. If he was not 100 years old and had a white beard, he would definitely look like a jade statue that was green from head to toe.
What the hell?
What on earth was happening?
Even if there was only a little bit of trust between two parties, they should not be saying such things?
After saying so much, you only remembered this sentence?!
Mo Shanshi was really so angry that he turned green.
Mu Qingfeng, on the other hand, was black instead of green. He was black from head to toe. He had been scolded continuously since Mo Shanshi started talking.
That was almost the sum of all the scoldings he had received for the past of his life.
He had suffered so much…
And the outcome was so miserable.
How would Mu Qingfeng not be angry?
“Alright, since both Valley Master Mo and Pavilion Master Mu has no objections, then the third round would be represented by me, Yan Xiu, Yan Qianli and Ping Yang!” Fang Zhengzhi gave a happy expression after looking at Mo Shanshi and Mu Qingfeng.
Mo Shanshi’s face turned even greener.
It was crystal clear like a piece of jade.
As for Mu Qingfeng…
He looked extremely painful as though he had just consumed the most bitter herb on earth and had no choice but to suffer in silence.
“…” the disciples of the Human Alliance looked at each other with their eyes wide open.
Therefore…
They had patiently watched the three of them make mute hand signs for such a long time and the outcome was unchanged?
So why did they decide to mute hand signs?
“Thank you, uncle Yan!” Fang Zhengzhi shifted his focus from Mo Shanshi and Mu Qingfeng and bowed to Yan Qianli.
“It’s my pleasure. I can still fight although I am old. Don’t lag behind me on the battlefield!” Yan Qianli was excited.
He had fought as a soldier for his entire life, guarded at Western Liang and his name as Prince Yan brought him a bright future.
However, after turning to a sage, Yan Qianli fell to the lowest point in his life. The powerful individual was like a forest and the sage state was like a cloud. He persisted forward with much trouble and hoped to reach the peak again someday.
Today, he stood up.
He stood up during the third round of competition that decided the future of humankind. Leaving behind his name for years, even if he died, what regrets would he have?
