Chapter 1876: Chapter 307: Gap

Lowly people have light words, this ancient saying means that what is said by someone of low status carries no weight and will not be taken seriously.

But it also serves as a reminder to those in power not to argue with the common folk over their words.

Because they receive little education and have even less, often their words come from instinct rather than thought.

Such words have nothing worth valuing, naturally, there is nothing to argue about either.

Thus, throughout history, the harshest criticism of those in power comes from these short-sighted commoners, like now in Xiling, those well-dressed and extraordinary-looking family disciples turned pale at hearing such criticisms of the new king.

Perhaps for these ordinary martial artists, the Heaven-Ascending Cloud Steps are an impossible trial, but for those disciples with connections, things are entirely different.

Once they master the Escape Technique, wouldn’t these Cloud Steps be as easy to tread as flat ground?

But if the cries of these fools displease the king, who changes the test, where will they go to cry?

People will always be angry when their interests are invaded, for this group of family disciples, these wailing fools before them are the trash blocking their progress.

Thus, several family disciples showed fierce expressions, stepped forward, and quickly knocked those who dared to insult the new king to the ground.

It’s quite funny to say, these warriors who dare to denounce the king can say nothing but plead and feel aggrieved when facing attacks from family disciples, while the crowd that had been swayed by emotions, fearful to avoid them, made a large circle.

"Why injure people!"

Perhaps he was hit hard, the martial artist knocked to the ground angrily said: "If you hit me again, I’ll call for help, Xiling City forbids private fights, the guard martial artists patrol day and night relentlessly!"

"You call, and when the guards arrive, Young Master will relay what you just said, let’s see if you can walk out of Xiling alive!"

The family disciple, fearless, sneered and kicked a few more times, kicking the speaking martial artist, hunching like a mud dog.

"A bunch of trash, only good at complaining, without any skill, can’t even climb the Cloud Ladder, how can they worship at the gate of the Martial Arts Monarch!"

After teaching the useless ones a lesson, the noble son tidied his clothes, walked under the Cloud Steps, lightly tapped his toes, and flew up like a swift, rising to the Cloud Steps at a ten-odd foot distance.

Below, the crowd looked up at the gracefully ascending noble son, their mouths unconsciously open.

Everyone knows the technique, but to be as nimble and elegant as this gentleman is indeed rare, some martial artists at this point couldn’t help but cheer.

While the martial artist knocked over on the ground clutched his chest and belly, raised his head with resentment.

He hoped that the person would fall, the worse the fall, the better!

The noble son, lightly like a swift, easily ascended to the first rung of the Cloud Ladder, switching his left foot to his right with a light tap on the cloud, his body initially slowing its upward momentum, seemed to gain the support of solid ground, ascending again.

Seeing this, those below were all shocked, is the soft Cloud Ladder really firm as the ground?

"Impossible!"

Suddenly, in the crowd, a simply dressed man red-eyed shouted angrily: "Yesterday I also stepped on that Cloud Step, clearly it’s a soft air mass, how could it support someone to ascend another step! This clearly.... this clearly....."

Clearly, it is to exclude all wandering martial artists, only accepting the elites of families!

Though the man didn’t say it outright, those around him felt this man’s grievance, similarly stepping on the Cloud Steps, why did he fall heavily while the noble son could ascend again by leveraging?

Is it true that wandering martial artists have no qualification to worship at the gate of the king?

"Ignorant frog in a well!"

Hearing this, a well-dressed fair-faced gentleman spread his folding fan, disdainfully said: "Young Master Liu didn’t ascend using the Cloud Ladder, let me teach you trash a lesson, see the vast difference between heaven and earth."

While speaking, the fair-faced gentleman actually lifted off the ground, floating above everyone’s heads, his gaze looking down at the crowd, filled with compassion and contempt.
