301: Chapter 300: Continuous Surprises 301: Chapter 300: Continuous Surprises Second Elder and Ji Bei’s faces were glowing red, their expressions animated.
The resurgence of the Spirit Sword Sect was remarkable.
It even managed to clinch the first place this year.
It had once again reemerged in the Shenwu Kingdom.
The Second Elder asked in a hurry, “Chen Gong, what on earth happened?
Tell us in detail.”
Ji Bei also said, “Hurry, tell us what happened.”
Su Cang was also gloomy-faced, asking, “How could we be first?
Yi Han and Zhan Feng, they are not to be trifled with.
Even among peers in the same state, I can’t guarantee a win against these two!”
Grand Elder asked coldly, “Chen Gong, if you are lying, be careful I will not be polite.”
“Hehe, I’ll talk, I’ll talk!” Chen Gong laugh confidently.
Chen Gong spoke in a solemn tone, “Disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect.”
“This year’s Year-end Tail Sacrifice.”
“Our disciple from the Spirit Sword Sect, Lin Bai, won the ultimate honor for our sect by dominating over the military geniuses, slashing the outstanding disciples of the four major sects, overlooking the heroes, and fighting fiercely in eight directions, in Chaoyang Palace.”
“Defeating Zhan Qi Rui, beating Xiao Jian, chasing Wang Fang, injuring Zhan Ying, and laying waste to Zhan Feng!
None of the military geniuses in the vast Shenwu Kingdom were a match for Lin Bai!”
Chen Gong announced with excitement.
“Zhan Qi Rui, the young master of the Qi royal family?”
“He defeated Xiao Jian, chased Wang Fang!”
“Injured Zhan Ying?
Isn’t Zhan Ying reputed to be the top physical cultivator in the military, how could he be injured?”
“Wasted Zhan Feng, Lin Bai actually wasted Zhan Feng.
He was the toughest warrior of the Shenwu Kingdom’s military.”
All the warriors started exclaiming in surprise one by one, each regretting not being able to witness this scene.
Second Elder and Ji Bei, however, were ecstatic.
Grand Elder and Su Cang wore incredulous expressions.
Chen Gong continued, “As for the other three major sects?
Hahaha, they were a complete joke this year.”
“The warriors of Canghai Yuntai Palace, more than two hundred came this year, all were killed by Lin Bai!”
Hiss!
As soon as the audience heard that more than two hundred warriors from Canghai Yuntai Palace were all killed by Lin Bai, everyone gasped.
“The warriors of the Fire Palace, more than seventy came this year, all killed!”
“The warriors of Edgeless Sect, more than thirty came this year, all killed!”
“As for Zhan Feng and Yi Han mentioned by the Young Sect Master?”
“Hehe.”
“Zhan Feng got off fairly lightly, he was just wasted.”
“But Yi Han, he was slain on the spot in the Chaoyang Palace!”
Chen Gong let out a hearty laugh, his spirits soaring, “Looking around inside the Chaoyang Palace, all of you esteemed figures are influential personas in the Shenwu Kingdom.
There are affluent merchants, influential Prime Ministers, lords who dominate their territories, but not one person could resist Lin Bai’s sword.”
“Defeating all the military talents, slashing outstanding disciples of the Four Major Sects, Lin Bai won the first place for Spirit Sword Sect in Chaoyang Palace, earning the Spirit Sword Sect unparalleled glory!”
Chen Gong finished recounting everything in one breath, his eyes brimming with immense excitement and pride.
“Senior Brother Lin Bai…”
“Senior Brother Lin Bai is mighty!
Lin Bai is mighty!”
“Senior Brother Lin Bai is powerful!
Lin Bai!”
“Senior Brother Lin Bai, I want to marry you, have a monkey for you!”
“Lin Bai!
Lin Bai!
Lin Bai!”
All the warriors on Ceyun Peak were chanting Lin Bai’s name.
“How, how, how could this be possible!” Su Cang mumbled in disbelief.
Su Cang felt as if he had been severely slapped in the face.
Just now, I was talking about training my disciples diligently after becoming the Sect Leader so that the Spirit Sword Sect could at least secure a spot within the top ten in the Chaoyang Palace.
And at this very moment, Lin Bai has directly seized the number one spot!
Just now, I was saying that Lin Bai was just a waste!
And at this moment, Lin Bai has become a celebrated genius youth in the Shenwu Kingdom!
How painful!
Su Cang and the Grand Elder both felt a stinging pain on their faces, as if someone had violently slapped them several times.
The Grand Elder regained his senses at this moment and asked anxiously, “Killing is not allowed at the Imperial Banquet, yet Lin Bai dared to kill disciples from the Four Major Sects.
Hasn’t he been sentenced to death by Your Majesty already?”
Su Cang, with renewed hope in his eyes, asked, “Yeah, Lin Bai hasn’t returned.
Hasn’t he been sentenced to death?”
“Ha ha ha, Lin Bai is dead.”
Su Cang and the Grand Elder both burst into hearty laughter.
At this moment, when all the warriors present saw Su Cang and the Grand Elder and heard that Lin Bai was “sentenced to death,” that the hero of the Spirit Sword Sect was dead, none of the warriors could muster a laugh, whether they were from the Divine Alliance or the Sword Alliance.
They all wore grim expressions.
Only Su Cang and the Grand Elder were laughing heartily.
As the Young Sect Leader of the Spirit Sword Sect, and as the leading Grand Elder of the Elders in the Spirit Sword Sect.
They were actually hoping for the genius youth of the Spirit Sword Sect to die!
Chen Gong said, “I’m afraid this will disappoint the Young Sect Master and the Grand Elder.
Not only did Lin Bai not die, but he also gained Your Majesty’s favor.
Your Majesty even announced on the spot that he was betrothing the First Princess Your Highness Chang of Shenwu Kingdom to Lin Bai.”
“I returned to the Spirit Sword Sect this time to discuss with the Second Elder and Elder Ji Bei about when we should go to the Imperial Capital to set the wedding date with His Majesty.”
Chen Gong said to the Second Elder and Ji Bei with a smile.
“What!”
“The First Princess Your Highness Bai Xiaoxiao on the Shenwu Genius List is going to marry into the Spirit Sword Sect, and she’s getting married to Lin Bai!”
“Is it really true?
The Princess is going to marry Lin Bai?
Then doesn’t that mean Lin Bai will become a Prince Consort?”
“Yes, from now on, we disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect will be related to the royal family.”
All the warriors present exclaimed.
The Second Elder asked in surprise, “Chen Gong, are you telling the truth?
Is His Majesty really planning to marry into the Spirit Sword Sect?”
Chen Gong nodded to confirm, and very seriously said, “Second Elder, Elder Ji Bei, for us in the Spirit Sword Sect, this might be an opportunity to rise.”
The Second Elder’s expression was excited.
With tears welling up in his eyes, he said, “This is more than just an opportunity.
It’s as if the Spirit Sword Sect has been given a rejuvenating tonic.
With the support of the military and the royal family, the Spirit Sword Sect won’t be bullied like before.”
“Lin Bai, the Spirit Sword Sect owes you so much!”
Ji Bei asked, “Where is Lin Bai?
Why didn’t he come back with you?”
Chen Gong replied, “We separated when we were in the Imperial Capital.
Lin Bai said he was going to sea to take care of some matters.
So, I didn’t force him to come back with me.”
The Second Elder blurted out irritably, “After the big battle, he must have been badly injured.
Why is he running around at this time instead of returning to the Sect obediently?
What is he doing running around?”
“When that little bastard comes back, I must teach him a good lesson.”
Although the Second Elder seemed to be reprimanding, there was unmistakable pride in his eyes.
“How could this happen, how could this be!” Su Cang said, unwilling to believe it.
The Grand Elder tried to console him, “Young Sect Master, Lin Bai is the embodiment of fluke luck.
Compared to you, you are a divine dragon flying in the Nine Heavens, while he is just a loach in a mud pond.
There is absolutely no comparison.”
Upon hearing the Grand Elder’s words, Su Cangfelt somewhat better in his heart, “Correct, Lin Bai is merely a loach, a waste.
I don’t even need to lay a hand on him, Qi Yang can easily take care of him.”
“Since he didn’t die in the Chaoyang Palace, then Qi Yang won’t let him live.”
“Perhaps now, Qi Yang has already killed him and is bringing his head back to see me.”
Su Cang said to himself with a smug, cold smile.
The news that Lin Bai had won first place at the Chaoyang Palace for the Spirit Sword Sect immediately spread throughout the entire Spirit Sword Sect.
Countless warriors cheered for Lin Bai.
He had demolished military geniuses, used his sword to cut down standout disciples from the Four Major Sects, overshadowed everyone else, won the favor of His Majesty, and was granted marriage on the spot.
What kind of dazzling battle results could a genius like this create!
