Chapter 950 The Emperor's Assassination Attempt?
"Shameless brat!"
"They actually dared to ask us if we understood the game?!"
"That's outrageous!"
Upon receiving Ye Nanxiao's reply, the official organizing committee of the Sun and Moon Tournament was absolutely furious.
What an ignorant child! How dare you spout such nonsense!
"Snapped!"
An elderly man with white hair from the organizing committee slammed his hand on the table in front of him, bursting into anger.
"How dare this brat from the Tang Clan be so arrogant! I must petition His Majesty to disqualify the Tang Clan team from the competition! This is blatant match-fixing and provocation! It is a provocation against the entire Sun Moon Empire!"
"I second that! The Tang Clan team's behavior is too disgusting!"
"I second that!"
The staff members were excitedly discussing it.
However, the people sitting in the middle remained silent, their faces grim.
"Chairman, please say something!"
The chairman of the organizing committee sighed, tapped the table with his knuckles, and said, "They're just openly playing a friendly match, and there's nothing we can do about it! Who wins or loses doesn't matter anymore!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd, who had been filled with righteous indignation, fell silent.
This championship has already been reserved by Shrek Academy. Whether Tang Sect wins or Shrek Academy wins, the trophy belongs to Shrek Academy.
They're still on the field playing, so what's wrong with a friendly match?
They could even skip the match altogether, and any team could easily win the trophy.
The Tangmen team were members of the previous Shrek team.
For Shrek Academy, the meaning is actually the same.
The officials immediately deflated.
They are high-ranking members of the competition organizing committee; when have they ever encountered such a worrisome situation?
The official who had just been yelling about teaching Ye Nanxiao a lesson immediately fell silent.
It was like punching cotton.
Ye Nanxiao ignored the competition committee members' expressions of disgust, his attention wandering to various parts of the competition venue.
"Each passage is guarded by twenty soldiers. Twenty soldiers couldn't possibly be the main focus of the deployment. This cunning person didn't intend to set up the battlefield here."
The twenty soldiers were practically nothing to Yan Shaozhe and his men.
Perhaps they were worried that Yan Shaozhe and the others wouldn't evacuate through the passage?
A map of the entire Ming capital instantly appeared in Ye Nanxiao's mind.
As I evacuated from Sun and Moon Plaza, I listed out all the possible destinations the route might lead to in my mind.
"There should be troops stationed on the main road, just like a siege."
"The sky, Ye Yulin's high-altitude soul tool."
Simulations were taking place repeatedly in Ye Nanxiao's mind.
The match on the field is nearing its end.
The two teams are just casually playing against each other; the performance won't last long.
Yan Shaozhe quietly appeared beside Ye Nanxiao, his face bearing the same gentle smile as always, but a sharp glint in his eyes.
"Follow me and break through the defenses. Elder Xuan and the others have already come from the academy to meet us."
"The Sun Moon Empire should have imposed martial law in the cities along the way. Elder Xuan and his group are likely to encounter considerable trouble."
"I disagree with the plan to split the troops into two groups."
"Who said I'd become a hero? I have a clone."
"I respect heroes, but I don't encourage becoming one, because I'm not dead yet, and it's not your place to stand in front of me!"
"Old Yan, you were a real man when you said that!"
Yan Shaozhe tossed his hair and laughed, "Wasn't I manly enough before?"
A blue light flickered in Ye Nanxiao's eyes, and a few tiny ice flowers danced in the air. "A real man is someone who admits their mistakes to Dean Cai!"
"Tsk, you're not being honest enough, kid. As for me, the dean, I've always been a real man!"
On the field.
Using the tortoise-shell shield formation that Xu Sanshi had split open, Bei Bei took out a firework shell the size of a fist and threw it at Qiu'er.
Qiu'er nodded slightly, receiving the signal, and with her left hand, she sent a dragon shadow back with the firework.
The fireworks exploded, and Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei pretended to be stunned before being shot to the ground by Qiu'er.
The exercise was terminated, and with two members already eliminated, the Tang Sect was quickly taken down by the Shrek team.
Zheng Zhan glanced at Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, and only after looking further did he realize that neither of the two teams was taking the game seriously at all.
I did hit him, but it didn't hurt much.
"I declare the Shrek Team the victor!"
A golden light descended from the sky and shone on the Shrek team led by Qiu'er.
The Tang Clan team quickly left the battlefield and gathered in the waiting area.
"Passage One, Dean Cai is already waiting for you there." Yan Shaozhe gave the Tang Clan team an encouraging smile.
The members of the Tang Clan walked up to Ye Nanxiao and took turns extending their fists to bump fists with him.
"Nanxiao, we gave the best performance this time! We have to have a meal when we get back!" Xu Sanshi puffed out his not-so-remarkable chest muscles.
"We need to set up ten or eight tables! Fill them with meat buns!" Beibei said with a smile.
"Nanxiao won't be able to eat enough without filling the place with meat buns!" He Caitou patted his soul-guided armor.
Ye Nanxiao smiled slightly, the blue light in his eyes reflecting a faint glow through the mist. "Sect Master, this time the expenses will not be covered by public funds; deduct them from my salary."
Tang Ya smiled. "Of course! I've already approved the note for you. Remember to sign it when you get back!"
Jiang Nannan reached out and hugged Ye Nanxiao, kissing him on the cheek and softly saying, "I'll be waiting for you in Xingluo."
Their evacuation route ultimately led them to the Star Luo Empire, which had cooperated and made preparations in advance.
As for the Heavenly Soul Empire, it was in complete chaos internally.
"Don't worry, a shrewd businessman like me is destined to leave a significant mark on the history of the mainland!" Ye Nanxiao patted Jiang Nannan on the back and kissed her on the lips.
Finally, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er came to Ye Nanxiao's side, holding hands and bowing to him.
"As the eldest brother, please take me in as your sister-in-law on behalf of the family!" Wang Dong'er said with a grin.
Ye Nanxiao reached out and angrily ruffled Huo Yuhao's hair, turning his handsome hairstyle into a bird's nest.
The latest novel is first published here!
"We're already so close, let's not get sentimental. Here's some homework for you: you've discovered the teleporter in the underground lab, and there are still quite a few experimental samples on that wall further in. Go back and study them carefully. Whether the Tang Sect can become a major sect that transcends the world depends on you!"
Huo Yuhao nodded emphatically. "We'll start eating when you get back!"
Yan Shaozhe watched the Tang Sect team walk into the exit passage. "As expected of the pride of Shrek Academy! From what you're saying, you're going back to hold a banquet. Save me a good seat."
Four figures emerged from behind Ye Nanxiao, their soul rings shining brightly upon him.
"Old Yan, the dishes I cook myself are quite expensive, but I'll give you a 20% discount. Bring your own drinks, and you can sit at the same table as Elder Xuan!"
"You brat! You dare take my money!"
On the field, Qiu'er held up the trophy representing the champion of this year's Soul Master Competition. The person in charge raised a megaphone, wanting Qiu'er, as the champion, to say a few words.
A sharp, explosive sound suddenly rang out.
Before everyone's eyes, the grandstand reserved for the emperor suddenly exploded violently.
Several terrifying fire dragons shattered the glass and engulfed everything.
A figure, protected by golden light and sitting in a wheelchair, was violently thrown to the ground.
"Protect His Majesty!"
A loud shout echoed throughout the arena, and dark figures rushed towards the competition stage from all directions.
"Assassin! Catch the assassin!"
The area near the stands was filled with noble families and officials, who were stunned by the sudden and terrifying explosion.
No one expected the emperor's viewing platform to explode. If these people hadn't been wearing invincible protective shields as their life-saving trump card, they would have been pulverized to pieces long ago.
The first thought these people had when they got up wasn't that they were still alive, but rather, "Who would dare to oppose Xu Tianran now?"
After regaining their senses, they fled in a disheveled state.
Yan Shaozhe floated in front of the Shrek team, his face, which usually carried a gentle smile, now filled with coldness.
The gentle golden light transformed into blazing flames, repelling the attacking guards.
Ye Nanxiao held nothing back; he drew his Emperor Sword, freezing all the guards along the entire road.
"Qiu'er, lead the team, move forward, and don't look back."
Qiu'er knew she couldn't afford to hesitate in their current situation, so she immediately shouted, "Shrek kids, come with me!"
Knowing the plan, Dai Huabin and the others did not hesitate and immediately sprang into action, following behind Xiao Ye No. 1 and Xiao Ye No. 2.
"Little fox! Qiu'er is waiting for you to come back!"
Qiu'er gave Ye Nanxiao a deep look, and then, under the cover of Xiao Ye No. 3 and Xiao Ye No. 4, she retreated as the last of the team.
Yan Shaozhe and Ye Nanxiao stood side by side, looking at the large number of guards gathering in front of them. Without saying a word, they unleashed their full power.
The dazzling yet deadly frost intersected with the blazing, bright fire.
This was the first time Ye Nanxiao had witnessed Yan Shaozhe's combat prowess firsthand.
That was known as the Phoenix of Light, the strongest being who suppressed the geniuses of that generation.
"You'd better take a good look at my strength, kid!!"
Yan Shaozhe conjured a ball of light the size of his head with both hands, and then threw it into the sky.
The sphere of light quickly expanded, transforming into a radiant phoenix, its crimson tail feathers resembling a phoenix carrying several fiery new stars.
"The phoenix cries as it shatters the heavens."
Yan Shaozhe pressed down with one hand, his eyes filled with arrogance.
Several Title Douluo-level Soul Masters hidden in the shadows sensed such terrifying Soul Power fluctuations and took out their most treasured Soul Tools.
Yan Shaozhe's attack was terrifying. If they didn't go all out, they would probably all be burned to ashes in this arena.
Ye Nanxiao released extreme ice everywhere, suppressing the residual power released by the Bright Phoenix.
Watching the audience frantically fleeing from the arena, all he could do was try to intercept the remaining force.
Fortunately, the official organizing committee of the Sun and Moon Tournament was rather unscrupulous. The tickets for the front row were sold to noble families and government officials, while the powerless common people were all on the outermost edge, and most of them had already escaped through the evacuation channels.
In this world filled with soul power, the people have honed their skills over countless years. At the slightest sign of trouble, they will immediately flee to protect themselves.
In addition, the Audu Chamber of Commerce sells one-time triggered defensive soul tools, so the common people are actually the group that suffers the least damage in this turmoil.
Those closest to the competition venue, the disciples of noble families, were being mercilessly slaughtered for blocking the path of the guards.
