I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1399: Chapter 1399: Encirclement, Interception! (1/4) Chapter 1399: Chapter 1399: Encirclement, Interception! (1/4) This academy exchange seems different from the usual.

Under Gu Sheng’s understanding, on the Tianji Continent, many academies spent a huge price to either align with other powers or to invite rogue cultivators for strengthening.

“But even so, what can they gain?” Tan Zongzhao frowned slightly and said, “Fame? Fame might rise, but if the foundation can’t keep up, it won’t help them recruit more students, right?”

Gu Sheng shook his head and said, “The dean should know the reason, it seems this Six Realms Academy exchange is very special, and it will take place in a very mysterious location. Perhaps these academies all want to go there.”

Everyone couldn’t help but show a look of surprise and doubt.

What kind of place was it that, even with such slim hope, they spared no expense in strengthening their numbers?

Weren’t they afraid they’d suffer losses so great they wouldn’t even have their undergarments left?

Gu Sheng lay on the back of a crane, hands cushioning his head, still with a blade of green grass in his mouth, he casually said, “Don’t worry, no matter how much they strengthen, it’s sure to be those same people. I probably know about sixty to seventy percent of them when it begins.”

Hearing this, everyone was speechless.

Indeed, in these years, Gu Sheng had been out experiencing the world—it was either brawling or on the way to find someone to brawl with.

Many prodigies had suffered greatly at his hands, and even went out of their way to avoid Gu Sheng!

At this moment, Vice-President Ming stood up and said to everyone, “Alright, I’ll discuss with everyone some of the itinerary for this exchange, after all, there are first-timers among you.”

“This exchange is set within the Xuanwu Divine Dynasty’s Martial God Mausoleum, which houses nine Martial God Platforms. The exchange will last seven days, and at the end, whichever academy has the most people standing on the nine Martial God Platforms will represent the northern region in the entire Tianji Continent’s academy exchange.”

“Of course, each Martial God Platform only allows one person to stand on it.”

Saying this, Vice-President Ming looked towards Mu Fusheng and the others, “Substitutes can also find opportunities to seize a Martial God Platform.”

Everyone nodded and expressed their understanding.

Vice-President Ming retracted the scroll in his hand and was about to close his eyes for a nap.

Suddenly, Vice-President Ming abruptly got up! He waved his hand, and the crane stopped mid-air.

Along with Vice-President Ming, the one who noticed was Mu Fusheng; he opened his eyes wide the moment Vice-President Ming stood up, his pupils flickering with lightning, his muscles tensing as he transmitted a message to Little Hei Shisheng, Fang Qiong, and the third person, “Be cautious, someone is ambushing us in the dark!”

Gu Sheng was next to react, but he took an extra look at Mu Fusheng, he could feel the instant physical change in Mu Fusheng.

Coupled with the enemy attack he had sensed, a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth, a thought rose in his mind: “Interesting…”

Under Vice-President Ming’s warning, all the personal disciples on the crane stood up.

Qin Chi looked at the surrounding dense crowd and said with an unpleasant expression, “Seems like there are people from other academies who do not want us to go to the Xuanwu Divine Dynasty…”

Gu Sheng snorted, “People from the Chaos Realm always like to play these underhanded tricks; it’s quite normal.”

Mixed Spirit Academy, as a top academy force on the Tianji Continent, was also a fierce contender for the first slot!

Adding to that, this time many academies considered this slot a must-win.

Thinking of this, it all made sense.

If they couldn’t beat the Mixed Spirit Academy during the exchange, then why not eliminate all the prized students of the Mixed Spirit Academy before the exchange had even started? Wouldn’t the opponent be out of the game then?

Vice President Ming looked around at the figures shrouded in special black robes, whose true identities were completely undetectable, and said with an icy expression, “It seems that it’s not just one academy involved in this matter. Three Demigod Realm powerhouses, plus thirty from the Ancestral Realm, and the rest are all juniors from the Divine Emperor Realm. You really do take us seriously.”

“Cut the nonsense. If the Mixed Spirit Academy forfeits the right now and gives up participating in the academy exchange, then we will turn and leave immediately, without hindering anyone.”

The voice was extremely coarse, unrecognizable, clearly altered.

The other side was very cautious.

This alone made it clear that the combined forces of all the involved academies were evidently no match for the Mixed Spirit Academy. Fearing retaliation after the autumn harvest, they had concealed their identities and voices.

Vice President Ming let out a cold huff, “Since when has the Mixed Spirit Academy ever succumbed to others’ threats? Moreover, do you think that by hiding, no clues can be traced back to you?”

“When we make our move, we will surely leave some trace on you. As long as the academy sends people to investigate those who participated in this exchange, a simple check will reveal the truth!”

The speaking Demigod powerhouse’s voice also sank, “What, do you think that any of you can leave here alive? As long as we kill you, your academy won’t be able to know the happenings here promptly, allowing us ample time to clean up any traces.”

Hearing this, Vice President Ming’s face turned unsightly.

Behind him, Mu Fusheng walked up to Tan Zongzhao and whispered, “Brother Tan, give it to me straight, what realm is your master in?”

Tan Zongzhao gave a wry smile, “He’s also a Demigod powerhouse. Although he could hold off the three Demigods for a while, with so many from the Ancestral and the Divine Emperor realms around, even their spit would be enough to drown us!”

At this time, Gu Sheng stepped forward, patted Mu Fusheng on the shoulder, and asked, “So, what’s your plan?”

“Although I don’t know how strong you actually are, you must have concealed your realm, right?”

Mu Fusheng felt somewhat helpless. He knew it was his subconscious reaction that had made Gu Sheng suspicious, but now was not the time to ponder that.

Mu Fusheng shook his head and said, “There is a way, but the three Demigod strongmen won’t let us carry it out smoothly.”

What Mu Fusheng was referring to was naturally the Heavenly Lightning Escape Talisman.

But those who had reached the realm of Demigods could influence the changes in the Dao Law with every move they made!

Even if they had little depth in the Dao Law of Thunder, they could still prevent the Lightning Evasion Talisman from teleporting.

After all, the Lightning Evasion Talisman had no defense against such interference.

At that moment, while Mu Fusheng was considering his options.

Vice President Ming’s expression suddenly became stern, “Get ready. Once we break through the encirclement, run towards the direction of the Xuanwu Divine Dynasty immediately. As long as we enter the city, they won’t dare to be so brazen.”

The Xuanwu Divine Dynasty was still a day’s journey from here!

Everyone was startled but quickly revved up their immortal aura to the maximum without further thought.

And the people in black robes sneered, “What, do you really think you alone can break the encirclement?”

Vice President Ming smiled, “After all, the Mixed Spirit Academy is part of the Chaos Realm’s power, and although I disdain to associate with those who like to resort to sleight of hand like you, I still anticipated this.”

Following that, Vice President Ming patted the immortal crane he sat upon and commanded, “Use all your strength!”
