Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 349: Battle of Genius

The vast Shanhe Martial Arts Academy, deserted.

Apart from Chen Shuiwen and his enthusiastic entourage, everyone had left the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy to converge towards Xuanwu Square.

Chen Shuiwen had hoped to use the grand opening ceremony to disrupt the battle of talents at the Xiaoshanhe Institute.

It was also a powerful declaration of the establishment of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy.

For this purpose...

They had not only spent a great deal of resources but also promised generous compensation.

Chen Shuiwen himself had been forcefully suppressing the timing of his breakthrough, all to pass through heavenly tribulation with an overwhelmingly strong stance during the grand opening ceremony, and step into the Dharma Manifestation Realm to boost the prestige of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy.

Unfortunately.

Reality and fantasy always have a huge gap!

Not only did Xiao Yi’s appearance turn his tribulation into a joke, but even his own cultivation had failed to enter the Dharma Manifestation Realm. With his current state, if he wanted to enter the Dharma Manifestation Realm again, he would likely have to wait several more years.

If Chen Shuiwen was the only one who failed, the impact on the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy would not be too great.

After all.

Nangong, Beitang, Three Seas Mountain, and Wendao Villa had promised to send experts to support the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy, which included several in the Dharma Manifestation Realm and dozens from the Tao Tribulation Realm!

Such a formidable lineup of experts could barely rival any of the top ten sects.

As a result...

Xiao Yi directly brought over a hundred from the Tao Tribulation Realm and four from the Dharma Manifestation Realm, among them even a seven-star Alchemist.

In both quantity and quality, he thoroughly crushed the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy.

Just when Chen Shuiwen thought everything was over, Xiao Yi dropped another bombshell; the corpses of Xue Mantian and others became the final straw that broke the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy.

The corpses of Xue Mantian and the others not only severely slapped the face of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy.

Xiao Yi even used their Martial Dao Divine Fruits as rewards, attracting countless talented experts who wished to join the Xiaoshanhe Institute. These were the Martial Dao Divine Fruits of the Dharma Manifestation Realm and Tao Tribulation Realm!

If one could obtain it, it would be more important than acquiring resources worth hundreds of billions of Silver!

What’s more...

All those people were sent by Chen Shuiwen and his allies!

Nangong Shengtian and the others looked at the comatose Chen Shuiwen with extremely ugly expressions. Strictly speaking, it was they who had handed over the Martial Dao Divine Fruits of Xue Mantian and others directly to Xiao Yi!

"Ancestor Nangong, do make a decision. What should we do?" Yun Ruowang said gravely.

The Sword Inquiry Taoist narrowed his eyes, his Sword Intent was earth-shattering, and his rage was no less intense than his Sword Intent, "Where did Xiao Yi get those experts from? A seven-star Alchemist, four from the Dharma Manifestation Realm, over a hundred from the Tao Tribulation Realm, that’s no small lineup!"

"I see that those people are suffused with Evil Qi, and Xiao Yi has just come back from Beast Emperor City. I’m afraid they are all the experts he garnered from Beast Emperor City," Beitang Feng said darkly, pondering.

All eyes turned to Nangong Shengtian.

The capital they had invested in the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy was substantial. If it all fell through now, they would suffer complete losses.

Nangong Shengtian squinted his eyes and said, "No matter, we still have one opportunity left!"

"Hm?"

The crowd looked at him expectantly.

Nangong Shengtian’s eyes radiated a chilling glint, his gaze cold to the extreme as he sneered, "In less than two months, it will be the Ancestral Worship Ceremony. As long as the disciples of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy can trample the people of the Xiaoshanhe Institute underfoot during the ceremony, there’s still hope for the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy!"

"Ancestor Nangong, given the current state of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy, how is it possible to trample the Xiaoshanhe Institute underfoot?"

"The strongest among the disciples of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy are only at the peak of the Golden Core Realm..."

Nangong Shengtian smiled coldly and said lightly, "If we can support the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy with those in the Calamity Realm and Dharma Manifestation Realm, are we lacking in disciples?"

Hum!

The crowd exchanged glances.

Yun Ruowang said in a deep voice, "Let’s do it just like that!"

"We must trample the Xiaoshanhe Institute beneath our feet!"

Clutching his fists tightly, Nangong Shengtian looked toward the direction of Xuanwu Square, his eyes filled with a gloomy madness, "Xiao Yi, daring to oppose me, you are still too inexperienced!"

...

Xuanwu Square.

Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.

The square was vast and could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people without feeling crowded.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the great day of the genius battle at our Xiaoshanhe Institute. As Xiao mentioned before, the top three of this genius battle will each get a Martial Dao Enlightenment Fruit of the Dharma Manifestation Realm, while the top twenty will each get a Martial Dao Divine Fruit of the Tao Tribulation Realm."

The Xiaoshanhe Institute had long set up a ring, and Yu Huaxian appeared in the center, announcing with an elevated voice, "All other disciples who pass the genius battle and enter our Xiaoshanhe Institute will receive great benefits. Next, please come forward to collect your Identity Tokens, the genius battle of our Xiaoshanhe Institute is about to begin!"

Rustle!

Figures surged out from the crowd to collect their Identity Tokens.

A total of thirty thousand Tokens were distributed for this genius battle, and the last ten thousand people remaining would enter the Xiaoshanhe Institute.

At the same time...

This genius battle would also rank the top one hundred, with rich rewards for each rank.

After the incident in front of the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy, the number of warriors willing to join the Xiaoshanhe Institute had multiplied, and the thirty thousand Tokens were quickly distributed.

Yu Huaxian immediately began arranging the matches, and pairs of powerful fighters took to the ring, where the situation changed in a split second.

On the elevated platform.

Xiao Yi sat upright, watching the competitors on the ring, and nodded slightly, "Not bad, the quality of these disciples is quite good. If they are well-trained, they can absolutely support the Xiaoshanhe Institute!"

"Director, there is less than two months left until the Ancestor Worship Ceremony, I’m afraid we might not have enough time," Hai Wei said, his expression hesitant with concern.

Li Jinjun nodded and said, "Based on what I know about Nangong Shengtian and the others, they will definitely not stop here. It is likely that the Shanhe Martial Arts Academy will cause trouble during the Ancestor Worship Ceremony."

Xiao Yi waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don’t worry, I have my own strategy!"

After all, he had the Elixir of Immortality at his disposal.

This Divine Artifact, capable of enhancing refining efficiency, had a refining effect a hundredfold greater; two months with the aid of the Elixir of Immortality was equivalent to two hundred months.

That was nearly twenty years!

It was completely enough for the disciples of the Xiaoshanhe Institute to increase their cultivation by several levels!

"By the way, how is everything going with the Treasure Pavilion?" Xiao Yi asked, looking at Li Jinjun.

Li Jinjun replied gravely, "The first batch of elixirs from the Treasure Pavilion has already been delivered to various places. However, since you have not returned, Master Nalan and Elder Xue have not launched an attack immediately."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Without his return, the supply of medicinal materials not being secure, the Treasure Pavilion dared not rashly launch an attack.

Once the bow is drawn, there is no turning back.

If they start the encirclement against the Nangong and Beitang Family’s elixir shops only to have the supply of medicinal materials cut off mid-way, they would face the two families’ furious counterattack. Read exclusive content at novelbuddy

The corners of Xiao Yi’s mouth turned up slightly, and a cold light flickered in his eyes as he said, "Li Jinjun, take Elder Fu to the Treasure Pavilion, and tell Master Nalan to begin the attack!"

"Yes!"

With respect, Hai Wei and Fu Yuan set off towards the Treasure Pavilion.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, looking down at the heated ring below and revealing a chilling smile, "Nangong, Beitang... your end has come!"
