However, she stopped herself again. When he joined the school of Novels back then, I didn’t go to see him, so if I go see him now, wouldn’t he just take me as a snob?
But he had entered secluded cultivation just a few days after joining the school of Novels. She had been busy too, which was why she had not visited him. And, as a woman, it would be utterly humiliating for her to have any contact with a person from the school of Novels.
Just as she was stuck in this dilemma, a legalist disciple reported, “Senior brother and sister, there’s another show going on again! Han Tieyi has laid down his military formations for Li Qingshan to challenge!”
“Let’s go take a look!” Hua Chengzan said, so Han Qiongzhi just went with the flow. She hated missing out on the fun the most.
After she arrived, Han Qiongzhi felt rather glad. At least she had not missed this battle.
As she watched Li Qingshan rampage through the military disciples with a composed smile, she suddenly felt her heart thump, while her eyes were firmly glued to him too.
Hua Chengzan smiled. “Who’s the one infatuated now?”
Han Qiongzhi’s face reddened, but she did not back down. “Do you have any issues with that? This is the type I like. It’s countless times better than a pretty face like you!”
Hua Chenzan rubbed his nose. “You really can’t keep a grown girl at home. In the blink of an eye, your childhood friend has become a pretty face.”
They knew one another since they were children. Since young, he had been radiating with charm, such that he would interest basically every single woman that he met. Only she maintained a relationship of purely friends with him. Even without him, Han Qiongzhi would still dislike romantic men, as she came from a clan of soldiers. No matter how charming Hua Chengzan was, it would still be ineffective against her.
Han Qiongzhi sniggered. “This time, li’l bro Tieyi’s in for quite the humiliation. My old man must be quite ashamed too.”
Before she had even finished speaking, a cold snort pierced her ears like an awl. Han Qiongzhi shivered all over as she became sheet-white.
Hua Chengzan asked, “What’s wrong?”
Han Qiongzhi gritted her teeth. “It’s the old coot. To think he would actually be so vicious to his own daughter.”
Hua Chengzan said, “There aren’t any daughters who speak so brazenly either.”
As they spoke, the outcome had been determined on the platform. Han Qiongzhi saw how Li Qingshan was riddled with wounds, tottering about, which pulled at her heartstrings. She called out, “You’ve won, so come down already!”
“Hold on. I need to beat you up now!” Li Qingshan instead turned around and made his way up as he said this to Han Tieyi.
Li Qingshan climbed up step by step, arriving before Han Tieyi.
A military disciple on the ground suddenly climbed up and wrapped his arms around Li Qingshan’s waist.
“Brothers, stop him!”
The incapacitated military disciples all grabbed Li Qingshan’s legs with everything that they had.
Li Qingshan lifted his fist, throwing it towards the military disciple around his waist. The disciple just closed his eyes, but he continued to cling onto him. However, he felt no pain at all. For some reason, Li Qingshan had pulled the fist back again.
Li Qingshan moved his heavy feet with difficulty, forcefully dragging so many people along as he approached Han Tieyi step by step. He tottered about very much as he walked, but he was determined.
With a thump, he finally stepped onto the platform on the top, throwing a punch towards Han Tieyi.
Han Tieyi raised his hand to stop the drillmasters who wanted to interfere. Without dodging at all, he received the punch.
“Young general!” The military disciples were all furious. This was akin to watching helplessly as the enemy general charged through their ranks and killed their commander. Every single military disciple who was still conscious felt disgraced. They gritted their teeth, with some even tearing up like children.
“Release him,” Han Tieyi ordered. “There are still two more punches.”
Li Qingshan exercised his body slightly. “Even I find punches so powerless to be boring, so I’ll keep it on credit for now. I’ll punch you when I recover my strength!”
With that, Li Qingshan fell backwards. There was a flash of golden light, and Xiao An caught Li Qingshan with her vajra avatar.
The sound of snoring rang out as he slept away soundly. As he slept, he grinned in pure satisfaction.
“Give him to me. He needs some treatment.”
A woman arrived beside Xiao An. Her beauty was picturesque as she spoke gently. Dressed in white clothes, she seemed to radiate with white light. An ivory tablet hung from her waist, engraved with the word “One”.
On the steps, disciples of the school of Medicine in similar white clothes got to work, tending to and treating the wounds of the military disciples.
Han Tieyi said to the woman, “Ru Xin, thank you for your troubles.”
The school of the Military could handle regular injuries. As a matter of fact, the disciples themselves could recover without any treatment at all. However, if the injuries were slightly more severe, they would ask the disciples of the school of Medicine to help out, preventing any potential lingering problems.
“Since I’m getting paid, of course I have to do my job and leave you satisfied.” Ru Xin smiled gently in a natural and graceful manner. The school of the Military was the school of Medicine’s greatest customer. Rarely did they ever have so much business.
“Senior sister Ru Xin, he seems to be mostly fine,” a muscly man said in a low, muffled voice.
“We have no idea if he has suffered any internal injuries. It’ll be bad if it becomes something chronic. Don’t you think so, little sister?” Ru Xin crouched down and asked Xiao An.
Xiao An felt that Li Qingshan would be completely fine with how his body was built, but she was still worried, so she nodded in agreement.
A green leaf flew out from Ru Xin’s sleeve. It expanded and lifted up Li Qingshan. A green light rose up and encased Li Qingshan. His smaller wounds immediately began to recover.
Even more green leaves flew out from her sleeve, over a hundred of them. They lifted up all the military disciples who were relatively more injured.
This was not a technique, but a spiritual artifact. It was a spiritual artifact that came in a set. Although it was only high grade, it was probably worth even more than regular supreme grade spiritual artifacts.
Ru Xin glanced at Li Qingshan on the leaf and pursed her lips. His body was so powerful that it basically exceeded all regular understanding. It was very much worth studying.
……
Han Tieyi turned around and entered the martial arts hall. To the very back sat Han Anjun, who held a bronze, three-legged cup for drinking alcohol. To his sides were ten seats, nine of which were occupied. Only the seat to Han Anjun’s right was empty.
All of them were eighth or ninth layer Qi Practitioners, while the vicious-looking, bulky, bald man to Han Anjun’s left was impressively at the tenth layer Qi Practitioner.
The bald man said, “General, why won’t you give us permission to fight? Why must we let that kid run amok in such an arrogant manner?”
The eight other people were furious too. They had watched helplessly as Li Qingshan defeated all of their fellow officers alone before a public audience. If it were not for Han Anjun’s power and influence, they would have run out of patience a long time ago and interfered.
Among the academy, apart from the primary disciple, there were a total of ten disciples who held the greatest status. They were known as core disciples. The nine of them were truly valiant soldiers and generals. They possessed the strongest battle prowess in the entire school. If any one of them had joined in on the battle earlier, it would have been possible to change the outcome.
