Berserk God of War

Chapter 438: Chapter 438 Martial Arts Hall, Poor!

The other two students from the Main Academy were unknown to the crowd.

But Qin Heng had mentioned that they were locals of the Long Night Empire and certainly had significant backgrounds there.

However, Lu Zhiqian and the other two looked at people with their chins tilted upward as if they were superior, and they did not react at all after Qin Heng finished speaking, as if to show that they disdained to interact with Qin Lao and the others.

Qin Lao, though direct in nature, could clearly see the three people’s attitude and chose to remain silent, not wanting to say more.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became awkward.

”Ahem...”

Unable to hold back, Qin Heng coughed twice and said to Qin Lao, ”Xiao Lao, take your Junior Brother Lu and the others around, do not neglect them.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Lao could only take a deep breath and replied, ”Yes.”

After speaking, he looked towards Lu Zhiqian and the other two, softly saying, ”Junior Brother Lu, and the two senior brothers and sisters, please!”

Despite his words, the three of them remained motionless, but the corners of their mouths already revealed faint cold smiles.

It wasn’t until a few breaths later that Lu Zhiqian finally spoke, ”Qin Lao, I need to correct you properly. As a student of the Inner Palace of the Main Academy, you should be addressing me as your senior brother.”

He then looked at Qin Heng and continued, ”All students from the Inner Palace of the Main Academy should be addressed as senior brothers and sisters, please do not forget.”

As he finished speaking, the whole room fell silent... and Qin Heng’s expression also turned sour.

It was he who first called ”Junior Brother Lu,” but according to the regulations of the Holy Dragon General Academy, any student from a Subacademy must address those from the Inner Palace of the Main Academy as senior brother or sister.

Only students at the Ten Wings level are exempt from this rule.

At that moment, Elder Feng Tingfu sipped his tea gently, then spoke softly, ”Qin Heng, rules must not be broken carelessly.”

That brief statement seemed to scorn the entire Holy Dragon Palace, and Qin Heng could only bow his head and reply, ”Hmm, I was just used to calling that, and didn’t adapt in time... Xiao Lao, take your senior brother Lu for a walk.”

Qin Lao clenched his teeth tightly and ultimately could only say, ”Senior Brother Lu, please!”

Instantly, Lu Zhiqian smiled.

He then walked out of the Golden Dragon Mountain Hall with the other two students from the Main Academy.

Qin Lao and the others could only follow with glum faces, escorting them gradually towards Holy Dragon Town at the center of Qilong Mountain.

Meanwhile, inside the hall, Elder Feng Tingfu also stood up and said, ”I’ll go alone to the Drunk Dragon Sword Cave, don’t mind me.”

After speaking, he walked out of the hall and summoned a Demon Dragon to fly towards Drunk Dragon Mountain.

The hall quieted down, and the breathing of those present grew heavy.

Bang...

Suddenly, Dark Dragon Mountain Master Wu Ding slammed the table heavily and said coldly, ”All that pride for nothing, just because they come from a better background and had a higher starting point... Our Sikong Jing will definitely be stronger than them in the future, it’s just that he has had less time to cultivate.”

After Wu Ding spoke, his entire demeanor turned chilling and menacing, showing extreme discomfort towards the four from the Main Academy.

Although people like Huo Yanmei did not voice their feelings, they too were extremely displeased deep down.

Qin Heng only managed a wry smile, saying, ”Can’t help it, since they are from the Main Academy, getting to the current state is already quite good, and at least the odds of winning against Xingluo Palace tomorrow are not small.”

Hearing this, everyone fell silent again; tomorrow was a battle of life and death, and the Holy Dragon Palace could not afford to lose.

”By the way, where is Sikong Jing?”

”He’s too impulsive. I must find him and have a word, to prevent him from offending the three Main Academy students.”

People exchanged glances, unaware of Sikong Jing’s current whereabouts.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Heng set off directly for Demon Dragon Valley, assuming Sikong Jing would be there.

But what he didn’t know was that Sikong Jing was actually inside the Drunk Dragon Sword Cave at that moment.

However, he had just begun to slowly get up at this moment, holding the Six Symbols Dragon Sword in his hand, he muttered to himself, ”For now, this should suffice. Forcing further development of the meridians could lead me into becoming demonized again.”

The meridians of the Six Symbols Heavenly Dragon were overly complex; even with seven Dragon Veins, he had only managed to form half of them so far.

After placing the Six Symbols Dragon Sword back into the Golden Soul Palace, Sikong Jing walked out of the Sword Cave and calmly descended Drunk Dragon Mountain, circulating his True Qi as he walked. With a loud boom, he broke through again, reaching the Fifth Layer of the Xuanjiang Realm.

Due to the formation of the meridians of the Six Symbols Heavenly Dragon and the completion of the challenges on the seven mountain paths before, his realm had been steadily increasing.

By the time he descended Drunk Dragon Mountain Road, he had already reached the Sixth Layer of the Xuanjiang Realm.

Upon arriving at Holy Dragon Town, Sikong Jing suddenly paused, noticing that many people in the town market were packing up.

It was chaotic, as if enemies were invading.

Confused, Sikong Jing grabbed someone and asked, ”The day is still young, why is everyone closing up already?”

He had been thinking about buying some tasty food in the town and bringing it back to Long Night Black Burning Camp to share with Yue Xi and the others.

It had been a month since he had returned to Long Night Black Burning Camp, and Sikong Jing missed it dearly.

”Alas, three students from the Main Academy have arrived, and they prefer quiet. Consequently, they made us stop our stalls temporarily.”

At this statement, a flash of cold light appeared in Sikong Jing’s eyes—the Main Academy had sent their people?

An elderly man approached, his tone filled with anger, ”Exactly, who knows where they got such big tempers from, just a word from them and they made us all go home, forbidding us from wandering the streets.

”Don’t speak carelessly; even Young Master Qin Lao must lower his head in front of them,” a third person chimed in.

Sikong Jing’s eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.

At this moment, someone came up and mentioned that the three students from the Main Academy were heading towards the center of Holy Dragon Town with Qin Lao.

Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing, without a second thought, headed towards the Task Hall.

He wanted to see for himself how impressive these three students from the Main Academy really were.

Meanwhile, in front of the Martial Arts Hall at the center of Holy Dragon Town.

Lu Zhiqian raised his chin and stared at Qin Lao, asking, ”Junior Brother Qin, I wonder if the Martial Arts Hall has anything new?”

Struggling to keep his temper, Qin Lao replied deeply, ”There are, but not many.”

The Martial Arts Hall was the place in the Holy Dragon Palace for comprehending and cultivating Martial Arts Techniques; any new additions were incorporated for students and apprentices to learn and practice, allowing those with extraordinary talents to master powerful techniques.

Having been away for three years, Lu Zhiqian had this question.

Hearing this answer, Lu Zhiqian sighed and shook his head, a look of disdain on his face.

”Brother Shi, Senior Sister Gao, I told you there is nothing worth visiting in Long Night Saint Dragon Palace. It’s either a noisy marketplace or a mediocre Martial Arts Hall. Let’s go back and rest,” he said.

Brother Shi and Senior Sister Gao were the other two students from the Main Academy.

They lazily lifted their eyelids, and Senior Sister Gao said, ”I’ll go in and have a look; there might be something useful after all.”

After speaking, Senior Sister Gao turned and entered the Martial Arts Hall.

And Brother Shi also smiled indifferently and added, ”Since we’re already here, I’ll go and take a look as well.”

However, less than half a moment later, the two emerged again.

Senior Sister Gao, with a cold expression, declared, ”It’s poor, truly poor”

”Everything here, the Main Academy has it all; there’s nothing that could spark my interest.”

”Long Night Saint Dragon Palace is even more rubbish than I imagined.”

Brother Shi also said, ”Luckily, I traveled thousands of miles to the Main Academy back then. If I had joined Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, I would have been ruined.”
