Chapter 183: Weak



Fang Zhengzhi had never heard of Meng Tian, and he had never heard of the World of the Sage. But so what? It would all be fine as long as Yan Xiu knew about it.

Yan Xiu and Fang Zhengzhi trusted each other immensely.

"Do you know this Meng Tian?"

"Yes I do."

"Do you know about the World of the Sage?"

"I know a little."

"Good!"

Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

Each of the candidates rushed to go through the gates.

There was an age old saying that it was better to enter first. Being inside first meant that one was more familiar with the world and thus in an advantageous position.

However, Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu were in no hurry.

As such, the two of them waited quietly outside. They only made their way through the gate after everyone entered.

There was no big plan behind their patience. Fang Zhengzhi was just afraid that squeezing with the rest would dirty his clothes. He also did not want to get wet.

...

The moment they stepped through the stone doors, the rained stopped.

A vast expanse greeted them. There were no tables or chairs, not even a tree in sight. The only thing that could be seen were the green stones on the ground.

The space was not big, but it allowed enough space for all 200 of them to stand inside.

In the near distance was a bridge, a stone bridge. To be more accurate, it was a broken stone bridge.

On the other side of the bridge was a mountain. The mountain was covered by mist so no one could see anything clearly. They surmised that it was a mountain from the silhouette.

This did not seem much different from an ordinary pocket dimension. However, since it was known as the World of the Sage, how could it be this simple?

"Cross the stone bridge!"

Four simple words echoed out throughout the space. It clearly laid out what they had to do.

This was a stone bridge that was broken from the center.

There was a stone at the start of the bridge. It was carved with two words, "Broken Bridge!"

There was nothing else.

Everyone’s gazes focused on the broken bridge but no one took the first step. This was an endless broken bridge.

The gap was clear for all to see, but everything past the gap was covered with white mist.

No one knew how long the bridge was, or if there was even a bridge on the other side.

Everything was unknown.

This was the most unsettling thing.

Fang Zhengzhi did not look at the bridge. He looked at the stone plate, at the two words to be exact...

"Broken Bridge."

These were two incredibly sharp words.

Every stroke was carved deeply into the stone.

"If my guess is correct, Meng Tian’s weapon was a sword?" Fang Zhengzhi glanced at Yan Xiu.

"It was a sword, but he stopped using it." Yan Xiu was slightly surprised. How did Fang Zhengzhi know Meng Tian used a sword when he didn’t even know who Meng Tian was?

Fang Zhengzhi pointed at the two words.

Yan Xiu glanced at it and nodded in understanding.

"Speaking of swords, there is a legend in the Great Xia Dynasty. It says that a sword is hidden in the World of the Sage. That is the sword that Meng Tian used to kill the demon lord Di Sikong!"

"There is a sword hidden in the pocket dimension?" Fang Zhengzhi was confused. If that was the case, why can’t he keep his own sword in his pocket dimension?

"When you are at that level, you can keep tens of thousands of things in your pocket dimension. Naturally, you can keep a sword." Yan Xiu was not surprised by Fang Zhengzhi’s question. After all, he knew Fang Zhengzhi had never gone to school. Ever since Fang Zhengzhi completed the Theory Examination in four hours, he believed this fact even more.

No academy would teach a student like that.

"So... where is the sword?"

"No one seems to be able to find the sword. It is said that the Sagely Battle God never used it again after killing the Demon Lord."

"Then what did he use?"

"Sabre, a short one."

"A short sabre? Why would someone who uses a sword change to using a short sabre..." Fang Zhengzhi had difficulty understanding it. Would a right handed person be able to use his left hand to write at such short notice?

Neither he nor Yan Xiu understood it.

No one in the Great Xia Dynasty could explain it either. However, the fact was that he did change to using a short sabre after killing the Demon Lord.

Just as Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu were discussing it, a figure appeared next to them. This was a figure in a red cloak, and her petite body made her look rather frail.

"You managed to sneak in?" Fang Zhengzhi did not even need her to take off her hoodie for him to recognize her.

"What do you mean sneak in? I came in here on my own accord okay?" The crisp, unhappy reply came from under the red cloak.

Fang Zhengzhi was in disbelief. He did not see Ping Yang in the Imperial Academy. She was also not in the courtyard when they entered the World of the Sage.

It was easy to verify this, her cloak was dry.

"Do you have something to say?" Fang Zhengzhi was too lazy to call her bluff.

"I want to defeat you!"

"Sure, but I heard that there is a sword here. I want to go take a look first."

"You’re talking about the Sagely Battle God’s sword? Hahaha... you want to find that sword? No one has been able to find it in centuries... okay, this feels like fun, I have decided to join you, celebrate!"

Ping Yang stiffened, then guaffawed. She immediately agreed and proposed something rather selfless.

It was all a quick process.

Then, Ping Yang waited for Fang Zhengzhi to welcome her into the group, but instead, Fang Zhengzhi shook his head.

"You are too weak!"

This was a simple and direct statement. But it was an impactful one. Ping Yang began to doubt herself for the first time.

"Fang Zhengzhi, how dare you say that I am too weak?!"

"Isn’t that the case?"

"I am somoene who wants to defeat you!"

"But, the truth is that you are too weak." Fang Zhengzhi maintained his viewpoint.

"Okay, you forced me into this!" Ping Yang pouted, her crystal clear eyes filling with rage.

Then, she turned and left without hesitation.

Fang Zhengzhi was quite pleased with Ping Yang. At the very least, she knew what shame was. It was not easy for a Star Conglomerate State cultivator to leech of someone like him.

However, very quickly, Fang Zhengzhi found that he had overestimated Ping Yang.

Because...

Ping Yang returned quickly. This time, there was a male in bright green armor next to her.

"Bodyguard? Protection?" Fang Zhengzhi thought to himself.

"Tell them what your cultivation level is now." Ping Yang walked to Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu and said.

"In reply to the princess, I hit the Heavenly Reflection State a year ago!" The middle aged man replied respectfully.

"Okay, now, I want you to defeat me!" Ping Yang looked at Fang Zhengzhi as she said this.

"I cannot touch the Princess!" The middle aged man was scared out of his wits when he heard it.

"Enough with the excuses. If you can’t defeat me today, I will go raid your house tomorrow!" Ping Yang was incredibly domineering, ignoring the pleas of the man.

"Princess, do you really want me to defeat you?" The middle aged man was in disbelief.

How could he possibly take up this battle. He was in the Heavenly Reflection State and she was just a Star Conglomerate Cultivator. The difference was way too stark.

"Of course!" Ping Yang nodded.

All of the other candidates began to take notice as well.

All of them were in disbelief.

"That’s... Princess Ping Yang!"

"Why is she in the combat examinations? And it looks like she’s challenging Wang Chuanping?"

"Wang Chuanping is a Heavenly Reflection cultivator. Princess Ping Yang is only in the Star Conglomerate State, why would she challenge him? Did Wang Chuanping antagonize her?"

The candidates thought to themselves.

Su Donglin stepped out from the crowd at this moment.

Su Donglin was dressed in green. His hair was let down and he was inexplicably charming. However, it was a pity he could not rid himself of that look of tiredness.
