Eternal Heavenly Emperor

Chu Hao plundered the tokens from these people, but he left one with each of them—that was the rule. If one had more than one token, one had to leave one behind, and they could only plunder the same person once a day.

However, Chu Hao marked the faces of the seven people with letters using the Power of Laws, mocking them to his heart's content, especially Baili Qianshu. This was the second time he had fallen into Chu Hao's hands, and Chu Hao carved letters onto both of his cheeks.

"Let's go."

The two set off again, mainly in search of Spiritual Medicine. As for Martial Artists, naturally, they would be drawn by the light column of Fu Kongling, coming over from afar to seek trouble.

But not everyone was so foolish. To have gathered more than thirty tokens, one must indeed be an expert. Those who didn't consider themselves strong enough didn't dare to attack, as it would surely bring them nothing but grief.

Of course, some who deemed themselves powerful and fearless brazenly launched attacks, only to humbly hand over their tokens. If they spoke disrespectfully, they would also have their faces marked.

Over a few days, the duo of Chu Hao had become famous—everyone knew about these two, one feigned weakness while being obviously a fifth-tier War God, yet possessed surprisingly formidable strength, even suppressing Tenth Tier War Gods.

Before they realized it, the tenth day had arrived. In just over ten hours, the competition would come to an end, and most people would return home disappointed.

At this point, those participating became crazed.

The weaker War Gods united to try to pull down the mighty. Defeating someone with a hundred tokens could allow a hundred people to enter the Academy!

Being War Gods themselves, some were powerful enough to face ten or even dozens of opponents. But what about facing a hundred War Gods, or even a thousand? Could they still win easily? Most War Gods would have to retreat.

In fact, there were quite a few teams with a thousand members, majestically searching through the mountains. Even a Tenth Tier War God would frown upon encountering them, weighing whether they could confront them head-on.

"Damn, how many tokens does this guy have?" Chu Hao and his partner, unfortunately, ran into a team of over three hundred people. Seeing Fu Kongling, each of their eyes bugged out.

The towering beam of light was thousands of feet high, indicating the other party had hundreds of tokens!

"Hey, it's those two popular guys recently!"

"Right, one is a seventh-tier War God and the other a fifth-tier War God. However, the tricky part is the fifth-tier. The seventh-tier War God has average strength, just at seventh-tier, but that Human Race War God is said to have easily defeated Tenth Tier War Gods."

"I don't quite believe it; those people are probably exaggerating to save their face."

"Very likely."

All of them nodded in agreement. Unless witnessed firsthand, it's hard to believe a fifth-tier War God could be strong enough to defeat a Tenth Tier War God. And since they hadn't got even a single token yet, they had no choice but to fight, no matter how strong the opponent.

"Still, let's be cautious. These two managed to get over a hundred tokens; they must have some real strength."

"Hmm!"

The three hundred spread out, each unleashing their Field Domains. Suddenly, a myriad of colorful lights erupted, surrounding Chu Hao and his partner. The Power of Laws surged like a tsunami.

"Just hand over your tokens peacefully, and we'll let you keep one each. You can enter the Academy anyway, no need for hard feelings, right?" one War God proposed, hoping to conquer without fighting.

Chu Hao burst into laughter, saying, "Sure, as long as someone can withstand one punch from me, I'll give them a token."

All were tempted—just to withstand one punch, how simple could that be? Just a fifth-tier War God, could he really be that incredible?

"Don't be swayed by his words, he's trying to divide our strength!" someone proclaimed, believing they saw through Chu Hao's intent, "Let's charge all together, three hundred against two, we will definitely win!"

"Yes, we will win!" The crowd pumped up their Field Domains, blasting out Laws, rolling towards Chu Hao and his partner.

Three hundred War Gods joining forces—in essence, except for the Star Master, there really wasn't another War God who could endure it!

Absolutely none!

Unfortunately, Chu Hao was not a true War God in the conventional sense. He extended a finger, and with a buzz, immediately formed a sphere around him and Fu Kongling. Bang bang bang bang! Numerous attacks hit, but they only burst into brilliant light on the sphere, not injuring anyone inside.

All stopped their attacks at the same moment—this was too unbelievable. Hundreds of War Gods coming together, yet they could not breach the defense of one War God; it was utterly unimaginable.

The rumors were true; this guy was too strong! How could he possibly be so powerful?

Chu Hao beamed a smile, saying, "Are you still going to fight?"

The crowd shook their heads hastily—how could they continue the fight? Their collective full-strength strike had been easily blocked; they were simply not on the same level. Continuing the fight would just bring them shame.

"Then why are you still surrounding us?" Chu Hao asked again.

"Oh oh oh!" The crowd hurriedly turned and ran, fearing Chu Hao might lose his temper and catch them for a hearty beatdown.

"Brother Chu Dao, you are truly powerful!" Fu Kongling exclaimed, no wonder Chu Hao didn't need a token. With his strength, he could easily secure the treatment of a third-class student, or even... second-class!

The two of them headed back towards the mountain gate, encountering several more attacks along the way. Chu Hao merely scared off those with a better attitude but gave a beating to those with a worse one. At this level, he was absolutely invincible.

Naturally, Chu Hao had collected several dozen tokens along the way, all of which he handed over to Fu Lingkong, making him shine even brighter.

A few hours later, the mountain gate was in sight, and many who had luckily obtained a token emerged from various places, rushing towards the gate. Once inside the academy's gate, they would be safe.

Yet, this short path was extremely perilous, with more people waiting here, making their last struggle, knowing they had to fight bitterly to reach the academy's gate.

When Fu Lingkong appeared so dashingly, almost everyone's eyes were fixed on him.

—Just by defeating him, they could not only enter the academy but could even become third-class students!

However, many others were reminded by their rationality that anyone carrying so many tokens and having made it through must be exceptionally strong; otherwise, they would have been ambushed countless times already.

Best not to act rashly, better to let someone else try first.

"Eh, someone has collected even more tokens than me?" Whoosh, a figure leaped forward, landing in front of Chu Hao and Fu Lingkong, tall and extraordinarily handsome, with a raging crimson river flowing behind him, a sight to behold.

Shui Wujun!

His eyes scanned over, betraying his surprise as he said, "A seventh-tier War God, and a fifth-tier, managed such a harvest? Eh, it's you two!" A War God naturally has an excellent memory, and he recognized Chu Hao and his companion immediately.

Chu Hao glanced over and couldn't help but smile, hinting to Fu Lingkong, "Not bad, this too is a fat sheep, with around a hundred tokens."

Fu Lingkong was startled. Chu Hao even intended to rob Shui Wujun?

He wasn't worried about Chu Hao not being able to win, but the fact that he could win was what scared him—after all, Shui Wujun was the sole son of the Red River Star King. If the Star King found out, would he not unleash his wrath on the Blue Crystal Clan and the Human Race?

"Haha, daring to call me a fat sheep, you two really are brazen!" Shui Wujun said grimly.

"Shui Wujun, flaunting your power before two who are not even Tenth Tier War Gods, don't you feel ashamed?" Lan Ran appeared, followed by Mo Yun and four others, each with a light pillar only about thirty feet high above them, but the princess of the Heavenly Fire Clan had a towering pillar, having also collected around a hundred tokens.

"Hehe!" Several other powerful young people shot over, their light pillars also stretching to a thousand feet, their loot no less than Shui Wujun or Lan Ran. They completely disregarded the covetous Martial Artists around them, showing immense confidence.

Shui Wujun snorted, "This person is just a seventh-tier War God. If he becomes a third-class student, ranking alongside us, do you all think that would look good?"

With this statement, many young people showed disdain. They were too proud, even Tenth Tier War Gods needed to demonstrate their combat power—it wasn't just anyone who could rank alongside them, especially not a mere seventh-tier War God.

They were immensely proud and arrogant, having surpassed an average Tenth Tier War God in their minds.

"Shui Wujun, the tokens he has are even more than we have!" Lan Ran said coldly.

"Is that so?" Shui Wujun scoffed, "He will soon be left with only one!"

Chu Hao laughed heartily, "Why do I feel like that person is you?"

"How dare you speak to me like that!" Shui Wujun showed a fierce expression and reached out his right hand toward Chu Hao.

Slap!

A crisp sound, Shui Wujun had been slapped hard, his body turning seven complete circles before stabilizing. He stared at Chu Hao in disbelief, his face turning from white to red, then from red to blue, one cheek swelling up significantly.

Not only was he stunned, but even Lan Ran and the other supreme Heaven Talents were in disbelief. How could this Human Race War God be so strong that he could slap him in the face, given that even Shui Wujun couldn't guard against it?

Fu Kongling was internally anxious, thinking that they must hide their identities at any cost, not letting Shui Wujun know they were from the Guangyuan Continent! Fortunately, the Ancient Academy attracted many from surrounding hundreds of Star Domains, so it wasn't only the Human Race and Blue Crystal Clan from the Guangyuan Continent there.

"You! Deserve! Death!" Shui Wujun finally snapped back to reality, accepting the fact that he had been slapped, and his rage surged skyrocketing high!

Boom, the red river behind him surged wildly, emitting an incredible aura as if it could destroy worlds.

"This is bad, Shui Wujun is truly enraged!"

"Step back, lest you get caught up in this."

"When Red River shows its might, it's said to be invincible among its peers."

The crowd exclaimed and withdrew in alarm. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
