Chapter 288: Chapter 288: You Don’t Agree? Let’s Fight!

No.

Not a genius.

But two geniuses!

Because Ling Wu said she would choose the same Academic Palace as Ling Chen.

"Damn it, I’m all in!"

Chi Shen gritted his teeth.

Xingxing Academy originally had no significant relation with the Jiang Family, no need to offend two geniuses for the sake of the Jiang Family.

One can merge the Ice and Fire Power, the other cultivates both Divine Soul and Spiritual Power, even successfully mastering the Superior Heavenly Spirit Technique.

As long as Xingxing Academy nurtures them carefully, they might well contend with that person from Wangxing Academy in the future!

The Jiang Family is merely one of the Eight Great Families, they truly do not have the capital to make Xingxing Academy yield!

"Don’t worry, leave it to me!"

Having made up his mind, Chi Shen communicated with Ling Chen through voice transmission.

Then, he looked towards Jiang Wuyan not far away and said: "Elder Wu Yan, please calm down for a moment."

"Hm?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wuyan frowned and said to Chi Shen: "Elder Chi, what, are you trying to protect this murderer?"

Could Chi Shen not differentiate between a genius and his Jiang Family? Still arguing in favor of Ling Chen?

Chi Shen said: "Elder Wu Yan, that’s not right. Both Ling Chen and Jiang Wusheng are students of the Eight Great Academies. Since they both decided to participate in the Eight Palaces Martial Competition, knowing well that the rules this time are exceptionally brutal and dangerous. Now that Jiang Wusheng has fallen, it’s tragic, but it was due to inferior skill. You cannot label Ling Chen as a murderer."

Jiang Wuyan said coldly: "Elder Chi, I do not care about those damn rules. All I know is that this kid killed my Jiang Family’s Jiang Wusheng. I hope, Elder Chi, you give my Jiang Family some respect and hand this kid over to me for punishment."

He, a prominent member of a venerable family, how could he care about some rule?

Moreover, it’s just the competition rules of the Eight Great Academies, not the rules of Xingxing Academy or Wangxing Academy!

"Elder Wu Yan, I hope you understand. Ling Chen is a jointly invited person by both Wangxing Academy and Xingxing Academy, in plain terms, he’s also a prospective student. You should be aware of the rules of our two academies. Upon entering, no distinction in status or identity, all are equally treated as students, must be regarded equally!"

Chi Shen said: "If Ling Chen had died today, we would similarly not pursue Jiang Wusheng’s responsibility."

Seeing Chi Shen stand up for Ling Chen, both Mo Han and Ling Wu sighed in relief. Facing a colossal entity like the Jiang Family, their power was too insignificant.

"Since he’s a prospective student, that means he’s not an official student."

Jiang Wuyan spoke coldly: "Moreover, this person is just a student from a trash academy, Elder Chi, do you really want to offend my Jiang Family for him?"

He didn’t want to talk about rules; he knew that if he didn’t take Ling Chen back, he would face severe punishment.

"Trash academy?"

"What about a trash academy, it’s still managed to kill a member of your venerable family? I think your Jiang Family might as well withdraw from the Eight Great Families and establish itself as a trash family!"

Ling Chen retorted sarcastically.

As these words came out, the faces of the people from the Eight Great Academies all turned grim.

Four competitions, True Martial Academy undefeated.

Given the strength Ling Chen has shown, even people like Qin Shi and Lin Fuyao dare not claim they could beat Ling Chen.

If True Martial Academy really is a trash academy, then they can’t even defeat a trash academy, doesn’t that make them less than trash?

"Kid, you’re courting death!"

A murderous intent surged in Jiang Wuyan’s eyes as he glared angrily at Ling Chen.

What status did he hold, and this kid dared to mock him?

He hadn’t even fully held Ling Chen accountable yet!

"Old thing, stop trying to scare people here!"

Ling Chen said unabashedly.

Seeing this, disbelief appeared on everyone’s faces. Ling Chen actually dared to confront an elder of the Jiang Family, a high-level cultivator from the Primordial Pill Realm?

"Very well, very well!"

Jiang Wuyan was so enraged that he laughed: "Once I capture you, see how I deal with you!"

He directly looked at Ye Fan and said: "Elder Ye, what do you think?"

"Murder avenged by death, it’s only natural!"

Ye Fan casually uttered these eight words.

Clearly, from the moment Ling Chen killed Jiang Wusheng, he had made up his mind.

He felt that Ling Chen really did not understand restraint; daring to kill even someone from the Eight Great Families, what if he encountered a prince or princess and disagreed with them someday? Wouldn’t he dare to kill them too?

Such a genius, after all, is just a brief blossom, not destined for a long life.

"Oh, right. I take back my previous invitation for Ling Chen to join Wang Xing Academic Palace."

It seemed as if Ye Fan had just remembered something.

Upon hearing this, Chi Shen was taken aback.

"Elder Ye, these competition rules were mutually agreed upon by our two great Academies. Ling Chen has not violated any rules, and ignoring this could tarnish the reputation of both our Academies!"

Chi Shen quickly responded.

He had never imagined that Ye Fan would be such a person who changed faces and disowned people!

"Hmph!"

Ye Fan snorted coldly, saying, "Elder Chi, what kind of existence are our two great Academies? Ordinary geniuses do not even qualify to join us. And now, these people think they can point fingers at us?"

Chi Shen shook his head and did not continue to argue.

A man who cannot be trusted cannot stand, the same applies to our Academies.

"Elder Ye, how imposing you are!"

Ling Chen said coldly.

He glanced around at the students from the Eight Great Academies and continued, "In the upcoming contests, if you encounter prospective students from Wang Xing Academic Palace, if you don’t fight, that’s fine, or else I will show no mercy!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan glanced at Ling Chen and gently shook his head.

A youngster full of fiery energy, merely speaking impulsively.

"What an arrogant kid, how dare you be so presumptuous in front of Lord Ye with such little ability?"

Taiwu Academy’s Palace Master Zhao Tianwu said coldly.

After all, Jiang Wusheng was a student of Taiwu Academy, and as the Palace Master, he naturally needed to speak on behalf of his students.

Moreover, the death of Jiang Wusheng would affect their performance in the Eight Palaces martial discussion.

"If you don’t accept this, then let’s have a fight!"

Ling Chen stared at Zhao Tianwu and said coldly.

"What?!"

Everyone was completely dumbfounded.

Ling Chen actually wanted to fight the Palace Master of Taiwu Academy?

"Good boy, I really want to see how much weight you have, daring to challenge this palace?"

Zhao Tianwu stomped his foot and flew towards this side.

"Zhao Tianwu, get back here!"

Chi Shen said coldly.

"Lord Chi, this kid is challenging me; if I do not respond, how can I have any dignity left in this world?"

Zhao Tianwu said.

Just as Chi Shen was about to speak, he heard the voice of Jiang Wuyan: "Zhao Tianwu, just go ahead. If you cannot remain as the palace master, you can come to the Jiang Family and become a Guest Elder. I have only one condition, that is to capture Ling Chen."

Chi Shen obviously had his heart set on supporting Ling Chen, and it would not be easy for him to move against Ling Chen.

Now, with Ling Chen challenging Zhao Tianwu, it gave the latter an opportunity to strike.

With him distracting Chi Shen, once Zhao Tianwu captured Ling Chen, Chi Shen would have no chance of recovery.

"Thank you, Elder Wu Yan!"

Zhao Tianwu said excitedly.

With Jiang Wuyan’s assurance, he naturally would no longer fear Chi Shen.

Once he became a Guest Elder of the Jiang Family, Chi Shen would dare not act against him!

Saying this, he soared through the skies, standing opposite Ling Chen.
