Chapter 224

Seventh Sage Martial University.

Two young men in martial arts suits in their thirties walked in from the school gate, talking and laughing. They walked all the way to the bottom of the Sage Martial Tower.

This area, which was not too lively in the past, was now completely surrounded by people.

It seemed like a grand gathering was being held.

“Damn, why are there so many people … They’re all students of Sage Martial University. What are they doing?” A young man muttered in surprise. He pushed the crowd aside and was about to squeeze in.

“Please make way, little brother!”

“Why are you pushing?!”

A few Sage Martial University students whose shoulders were grabbed by him trembled, sending out a shockwave that pushed the young man away and made him take two steps back.

“I … I received a text message. Line up until I enter the tower.” The young man was stunned.

“Come next time. Can’t you see we’re guarding the tower? Why are you joining on the fun?” Someone waved at him impatiently.

“I’ve been waiting for months!” The young man could not help but shout. Before he could finish, his companion covered his mouth.

“Sorry, sorry … We won’t enter the tower. You can continue.” The young man’s companion apologized again and again and pulled the young man away.

“What! I applied to enter the tower through the proper procedures. Why can’t I have a chance to go in …”

When they reached a corner far away from the crowd, the young man broke free from his companion’s hand and shouted anxiously.

His companion looked helpless. He pointed at the crowd and said, “Why are you so blind? Can’t you see that these Seventh Sage Martial University students are holding back a fire in their hearts? If you continue to force your way in, be careful you don’t get beaten up …”

“I …” The young man opened his mouth and only then did he notice the university students gathered at the bottom of the Sage Martial Tower. Their faces were ugly, and their eyes were gloomy. Some even clenched their fists and stared at the Sage Martial Tower.

The crowd seemed to be bustling, but there were not many people talking.

From afar, it seemed like a thick layer of dark clouds had gathered above this group of people. A thunderstorm could brew at any time.

“Damn, what’s going on …” The young man was a little surprised. He could not help but blurt out, “Why do they all look like their fathers have died?”

“Didn’t you hear them? They’re guarding the tower. If they can’t hold on, the position of the Seventh Sage Martial Arts University can’t be maintained. That’s much more serious than a dead father …” His companion pointed at the center of the crowd, something like a big Sage Martial University.

At this moment, the big screen was scrolling with rankings, names, and levels of the Sage Martial Tower.

The young man’s eyes weren’t sharp. He could barely see the first three rows of the rankings on the screen.

First: Miao Renxiong, 21st floor.

Second: Chen Yixuan, 19th floor.

Third: Xiao Lan, 18th floor …

“Fuck! Isn’t Miao Renxiong from the Fourth Sage Martial University? I think he’s quite famous. I’ve seen him in a magazine before. He’s the champion of this year’s senior students in Fourth Sage Martial Arts University, ranked sixth on the Seven Sages Ranking …”

“Yes …” His companion nodded. “The seven Sage Martial Universities can challenge each other in the form of tower challenge and tower defense. This is what we’re seeing now. Once the tower was successfully cleared, the party that failed to defend the tower would have to give up a year’s worth of usage rights to the Sage Martial Tower. This kind of competition is encouraged by the leaders of the Sage Martial University. Sage Martial Tower had such a rule when it was first established.

“Now that Miao Renxiong from Fourth Sage Martial University, Chen Yixuan and Xiao Lan from Seventh Sage Martial University are here. No wonder they’re nervous. Once they fail, the students of Seventh Sage Martial University will want to enter Sage Martial Tower again. They’ll have to fill out a form like us and wait in line for half a year …

“Do you think they’ll dare to beat you up for something as important as their face and martial arts cultivation? Don’t be unlucky. There’ll be plenty of chances in the future anyway.”

“I see …” The young man listened to his companion’s explanation and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. He suddenly walked toward the crowd in front of him. His companion was anxious. “Hey, why aren’t you listening? Why are you still going?”

The young man did not even turn his head. “I’m not going to enter the tower. It’s such a rare sight. I want to see it even if you don’t want to. Why should I go back?”

“That’s true.” His companion thought it made sense and hurried to follow.

A tall young man with short hair like steel needles walked out of the tower. He had a valiant temperament and a pale face. Seeing this person appear, the Seventh Sage Martial University students surrounding the Sage Martial University were disappointed.

Looking at the rankings on the big screen, their expressions were mixed with unwillingness.

“Hey, Xiao Lan also came out. Now only Chen Yixuan has a chance to beat Miao Renxiong …”

“That Miao Renxiong spent two days familiarizing himself with our Sage Martial University’s Sage Martial Tower. I didn’t expect him to be so fierce today. No one can catch up to him from start to finish.”

“After all, he’s a genius in the top ten of the Seven Sages Ranking. Chen Yixuan and Xiao Lan are still lacking compared to him …”

“It’s hard …”

Xiao Lan, who had just walked out of the Sage Martial Tower, stared at the rankings on the big screen for a while. A few familiar seniors wanted to help him up, but he pushed them away in an extremely violent manner.

“Get lost!”

After saying that, he walked to the side with a gloomy face.

Seeing Xiao Lan like this, the surrounding students became even more depressed.

“If Chen Yixuan also loses, then what should we do?”

A girl with a bun said worriedly, “Wouldn’t we be unable to raise our heads when facing the other students of Sage Martial University for the next year? We also have to fight with the people outside for a few spots to enter the tower … I don’t want that.”

Before she finished speaking, she heard a commotion in front of her. The girl with a bun looked up and subconsciously covered her mouth. Directly, a slender and handsome young man was slowly walking out of the Sage Martial Tower.

He didn’t seem to be in a good state. His spirit was a bit sluggish, as if he had stayed up all night without sleeping.

“Chen Yixuan … Chen Yixuan also came out …”

The surrounding crowd immediately became restless.

The previously suppressed emotions all exploded at this moment, releasing a lot of disappointment, irritation, and unwillingness …

“Chen Yixuan reached the 21st floor, Miao Renxiong still hasn’t come out at the 21st floor. It’s over, it’s over …”

The girl with a bun’s face turned pale. She muttered, “Even Chen Yixuan lost. Then who else in our Seventh Sage Martial University can be that Miao Renxiong’s opponent? Looks like we really have to squeeze with the martial artists outside to apply for a few spots in the future … ”

At this time, a girl with an alloy saber on her back beside the girl with a bun suddenly said, “That’s not necessarily true. Chen Yixuan isn’t necessarily the strongest in our Seventh Sage Martial University. I know someone who might have a chance to save our Seventh Sage Martial University’s face …”

“Uh …”
