♂?，，

  The crowd that had been stirred up by Gong Sun's fall to the ground suddenly fell silent.

  He's dead.

  Gongsun Zhi actually died.

  The core student of the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsmen Academy, the owner of the Zhongjian Swordsman Medal, the son of Viscount Gong Sun Fangyu, the grandson of Earl Gong Sun Jianye, and the knightly identity of Gong Sun Suo, actually died.

  Died on a duel field, by the hands of an ordinary civilian with only high-ranking martial artist strength.

  For a moment, the atmosphere in the field was slightly stagnant.

  Before the duel began, everyone who had heard about this news thought that a high-ranking martial artist accepting a challenge from a mid-ranking swordsman was simply courting death and overestimating oneself. It was an act of seeking to impress the crowd, as there was no comparison between the two.

  If it weren't for Gong Sun's reputation in the academy, a series of events that followed would not have caught Miss Hailin's attention, and this duel would not have had many spectators.

  After all...

  One side of the duel was just a high-ranking martial artist, which made it really hard for people to get excited about.

  But at this moment, when the result of the duel really came out, it was a shocking surprise for everyone.

  In the end, it was not the new students of the academy who were defeated, but Wang Ting, a high-ranking martial artist. Instead, it was Gong Sun Zu, the son of heaven and a seeded student at the academy.

  And in the end, Wang Ting actually killed Gong Sunzhuang.

  Gongsun Zan was killed by Yuan Shao's men.

  For a moment, everyone's gaze at Wang Ting changed slightly.

  Either in awe, or intimidated, or unbelievable, or angry, and some still with a hint of mockery...

  "Halt! Didn't I tell you to halt? Why won't you halt?! Do you know what you're doing?! You've killed a noble, the son of Viscount Gong Sun Jianye, and committed a grave mistake!"

  On the stage, the high-ranking swordsman Zhu Mo's face was stern and his voice was loud, shouting at Wang Ting. If he hadn't retained a bit of rationality, he would have probably attacked him already.

  "Once on the dueling platform, regardless of identity or status, life and death are not discussed, this is the rule."

  Wang Tingdao nodded.

  "What's 'rules'? What does a little brat like you know about rules? Rules..."

  "At least I understand!"

  Wang Ting said, too lazy to care about it anymore, his eyes fell on the ring below.

  This scene made Zhu Mo's eyes twitch with anger and his eyebrows jump up, his dissatisfaction and hatred for Wang Ting even more intense.

  "Sorry to disappoint you."

  Looking in the direction of Hailin and others, Wang Ting said softly.

  He believed that as a high-ranking swordsman, Li Mubai would be able to hear what he was saying clearly.

  "It's not interesting."

  Watching Gong Sun die on the dueling field, Hailin, who was originally excited, also felt a bit bored.

  Although she had no good feelings towards Gong Sun, even a dog that wagged its tail and begged for pity in front of her every day would gradually get used to it. But now, Gong Sun was actually killed by Wang Ting, which made Hai Lin'er, the spoiled girl, feel as if she had lost a not-so-bad toy.

  "He's gone."

  After saying a word, Hailin also left the dueling arena without staying here any longer.

  The female students behind her hurriedly followed closely after her.

  "Hmm."

  A hint of coldness appeared at the corner of Li Mu's mouth, and Wang Ting's words were naturally heard very clearly. Feeling his own young lady's low enthusiasm, at this moment, in his heart, he had already generated a real killing intent towards Wang Ting.

  He glanced at Xi Ruojian beside him and intentionally or unintentionally said, "This young man is too impulsive, doesn't consider the consequences, and if you associate with this kind of person, one misstep and who knows when you'll be dragged down together. Miss Xi Ruojian, isn't that right?"

  "This..."

  "Jian, what Li Mu said is true. This young man indeed doesn't know his limits, acting recklessly without considering the consequences. Doesn't he know that some things can be done and some cannot? I think it's better to minimize contact with him in the future to avoid unnecessary trouble."

  Bei Wu Ya also spoke up, he was quite dissatisfied with Wang Ting's daring to strike and kill a noble.

  However, just as Li Mu had finished beating Xi Ruojian, this noble lady, and was about to follow Hailin quickly leave, a voice suddenly came from the stage.

  "Li Mu!"

  "Huh?"

  Following Hailin'er, Li Mu was about to leave when his body suddenly shook slightly.

  "High-ranking swordsman Li Mu!"

  Two consecutive soft calls finally stopped Li Mu's movement. He turned around and looked at Wang Ting on the stage.

  "You think you can take me down? You thought I didn't hear that you intentionally lost to Gong Sun, and now you're coming after me?"

  Wang Ting said.

  Not suppressing one's own voice.

  Seeing all the students' eyes fall on him, Li Mu's face changed slightly, and his eyes flashed with a cold light: "You little brat, you can eat whatever you want, but don't talk nonsense!"

  Those who can join the Xuanhui Advanced Swordsman Academy are mostly geniuses from all over the world, with about one-tenth of them having a noble background. However, most of them are just knights or barons. Even so, if these people were to spread the word about what happened here, it would severely damage their reputation. Especially since this incident might also involve the Haino Earl's family, giving people the false impression that the Haino Earl's household is bullying others with their power!

  Although this is not an illusion, but a fact, the laws of the kingdom are placed here, and even if they have some small actions, they can only be carried out in private, and dare not openly challenge the authority of the kingdom's laws. Once today's events become a reality, the impact will be so severe that it is unimaginable, and the consequences will absolutely not be something that a small house minister like him can bear.

  "Regardless of true or false."

  Wang Ting's gaze locked onto Li Mu: "I'll give you a chance! A chance to openly and fairly deal with me! So as not to only rely on the power behind your back, using despicable means!"

  "Huh? Kid, what kind of trouble are you trying to stir up?"

  "Duel! High-ranking swordsman Li Mu! Life-or-death duel! Three months later, at the Xuanzhong High-ranking Swordsman Academy!"

  "Duel!?"

  Li Mu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and in his calm tone, there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.

  The Earl's vassals oppress the common people.

  "Yes, High-ranking Warrior Wang Ting, are you going to duel this high-ranking swordsman?! Are you daring or not?!"

  "Wow!"

  As soon as Wang Ting said this, it immediately caused a stir.

  A high-ranking martial artist, actually going to challenge a high-ranking swordsman?

  Although Wang Ting had just performed a shocking reversal, displaying the Burial Sword Technique and killing the mid-tier swordsman Gong Sun Suo, however, the power of high-tier swordsmen is fundamentally not something that mid-tier swordsmen can compare to. Mid-tier swordsmen temper their bodies, but high-tier swordsmen have already tempered their internal organs, including their hearts. After being tempered, the heart's performance is enhanced, its blood-producing function is strengthened, and the power of the vital energy it produces is fundamentally not something that practitioners below high-tier can compare to. And yet, Wang Ting, who has just become a high-tier martial artist, dares to challenge the high-tier swordsman Li Mu?

  For a moment, everyone's gaze was almost drawn over, even those nobles and students who had originally seen the end of the duel and were about to leave stopped in their tracks, their eyes going back and forth between Wang Ting and Li Mu.

  "In three months, let's have a duel!?"

  Li Mu seemed to have vaguely understood Wang Ting's intentions, which was a retreat in the guise of an advance. For a moment, the chill in his eyes had transformed into a cold and ruthless killing intent.

  Don't want to answer.

  He really didn't want to accept this duel. If he didn't accept it, there were a hundred ways for him to secretly get rid of that arrogant little beast.

  But now, with so many people watching, and the sons of so many wealthy and noble families staring at him, waiting for his response, the matter has already become a question of the honor of Earl Haino - how could he not accept?

  "If you want to die, what's the difference if I succeed or not? If you want to drag it out for three more months, then I'll let you live for three more months!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and quickly chased after Hailin.
