Chapter 287

~8 min read 1,580 words

Ye Wuque's defeat made the group of students in the Jiangcai Camp re-evaluate Chen Fan.

They couldn't help but feel dazed; this young man, who had been in the camp for less than a month, was already standing at the very front of everyone.

Zhan Ye looked at everyone again and said: "Ye Wuque just gave up his qualification as the Number 1 arena master; now you can still compete for this last spot!"

Next, the battle began again!

Two hours later, the fifth spot was decided; the winner was Chu Xiong.

Although Chu Xiong had lost to Chen Fan, his strength was the best among those remaining, so after recovering from his injuries, he easily won the fifth spot.

Zhan Ye stood in front of the crowd and announced loudly: "The five people representing my Great Xia in the duel with Russia are Chen Fan, Gao Hongfei, Zhong Li, Chu Xiong, and Han Feng. Of course, these five will also have the opportunity to enter the Lingze Secret Realm!"

The Jiangcai Camp students immediately applauded. When they heard about the Lingze Secret Realm, they were all envious, but they could only be envious; who told them their strength wasn't enough.

"The Lingze Secret Realm happens once every ten years, and only allows people below the Grandmaster level to enter; I'm afraid we don't have a chance!"

"Sigh, that's right. There aren't many opportunities to improve the soul; if you miss it, you miss it."

Everyone sighed, but there was nothing they could do.

At this time, Zhan Ye looked at the five, including Chen Fan, and said: "You five go back and get a good rest; we set off early tomorrow morning!"

Mojiang City is located at the border between Great Xia and Russia; it has already become a powder keg here, which could be ignited at any time.

Here, Great Xia and Russia have stationed tens of thousands of troops!! Tens of thousands of ability users have gathered here!

The supreme commander on the Great Xia side is a Quasi-Martial Saint named Cang Yuanba!

In the command hall, Cang Yuanba is holding a meeting with a group of high-level officials to discuss the upcoming duel with Russia.

In front of the hall is a huge screen, and what is displayed on the screen is the information of the five participants selected by the Jiangcai Camp.

After seeing it, everyone couldn't help but frown.

"What is going on with this Jiangcai Camp? I heard that the current number one person in the Jiangcai Camp is Ye Wuque? Why isn't he participating?"

"That's right, why choose a Tier 4 Peak student to participate in the duel? Isn't this a joke? Sending a Tier 4 ability user to fight, how is this any different from handing over the Star Glory Cold Iron mine to others?"

"Could it be that this year's Jiangcai Camp has declined to this point?"

The group of generals discussed it one after another!

At this time, Deputy General Li Yu said: "The data says Chen Fan is the new disciple taken by Marshal Ye. I think... I think... he should have some means... right?"

As he spoke, he himself couldn't continue.

To be honest, no matter how strong a Tier 4 Peak is, can he be stronger than a Tier 6 Peak ability user?

Beside him was another general named Gu Cang, who sighed and said: "Old Li, stop trying to smooth things over! No matter how many means he has, how strong can he be? Back then, Marshal Ye was also brilliant; at Tier 4 Peak, he could only wrestle with Tier 6 Early Stage ability users. Can this Chen Fan be stronger than Marshal Ye? Even if he really is stronger than Marshal Ye, can he beat a Tier 6 Peak?"

Li Yu's face looked ugly: "Then what do you say we do? He is Marshal Ye's disciple, a closed-door disciple. Do you know what a closed-door disciple is? Damn it, in the future, the Zhenyuan Army will be handed over to him. Are you not giving him face, or are you not giving Marshal Ye face!"

Gu Cang gritted his teeth and said: "Even if he is Marshal Ye's disciple, he can't do whatever he wants. The Star Glory Cold Iron mine concerns the interests of all our Zhenyuan Army soldiers. Once developed, it will be enough for all the soldiers to get new equipment. How can this be treated as child's play!"

"Then what do you say we do?" Li Yu was so anxious he patted the table with a bang, bang, bang.

Gu Cang seemed to have made up his mind and said: "At that time, stop him, firmly refuse to let him go. If Marshal Ye blames us, I, Gu Cang, will offer my head in apology!"

Seeing his determination, the group of generals couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, Cang Yuanba, who was sitting in the highest position, spoke: "Enough! I'm still here. If Marshal Ye really wants to blame someone, why would you need to take the responsibility?! Li Yu, when they arrive, arrange for Qi Feiyu to have a match with him. Whoever wins goes!"

"Good!" The generals nodded one after another.

Half a day later, the plane carrying Chen Fan and the others landed at the Mojiang City military airport.

Here, Cang Yuanba and the others were already waiting to welcome them.

After the generals glanced at Chen Fan obscurely, they greeted Zhan Ye one after another.

As the head instructor of the Jiangcai Camp, Zhan Ye has a very transcendent status in the military; many of the soldiers who came out of his hands now hold important positions.

Cang Yuanba shook hands with him, also being extremely polite.

"Brother Zhan, thank you for your hard work. Let's go, the camp has already prepared a banquet; firstly to welcome you, and secondly to boost your morale for tomorrow!"

The military vehicle drove all the way to the military district guesthouse.

Everyone took their seats, and the service staff quickly brought tea.

After the pleasantries, Cang Yuanba pretended not to care and asked: "Brother Zhan, I have always heard that Ye Wuque is the strongest among your students. Why didn't you bring him this time? Is it because you think those guys from Russia are vulnerable?!"

His linguistic art was excellent; he neither questioned Zhan Ye's decision nor asked his own question in a half-joking tone.

Zhan Ye was just about to answer when suddenly there was a commotion outside the camp.

"Don't stop me, I want to see General Cang!"

This voice sounded young, but the anger was extremely great.

Immediately after, another scolding voice came: "Nonsense, General Cang is entertaining distinguished guests; talk about other things later!"

"I won't, I won't, I have to speak my mind. I want to ask General Cang why he chose to let a Tier 4 ability user participate in tomorrow's duel! The Star Glory Cold Iron mine concerns the interests of the soldiers on the front line; how can it be so childish!"

The commotion outside grew more and more intense!

Cang Yuanba couldn't help but look ugly, and he said apologetically: "Brother Zhan, I am truly sorry, my subordinates are ignorant; I will go out and stop them!"

After saying that, Cang Yuanba walked out of the room, and Chen Fan and the others waited in place, looking at each other.

Ten seconds later, everyone heard Cang Yuanba's roar: "Qi Feiyu! What do you want to do? What kind of decorum is this, making such a racket!"

"General Cang, Feiyu is not convinced. For the Star Glory Cold Iron mine, thousands of our border soldiers have died or been injured! We must win this duel! Letting a Tier 4 ability user go, how can we face the brothers who died." Qi Feiyu was crying and snotting, his voice filled with grief and indignation!

The sound outside grew louder and louder, and everyone in the room heard it clearly.

Zhan Ye couldn't help but grin and say: "Chen Fan, it seems someone is questioning your strength."

Chu Xiong and the others all showed a look of watching a good show.

Chu Xiong smiled: "Brother Chen, it seems if you don't show a few tricks, the soldiers at the border won't be convinced."

Chen Fan sighed, took the initiative to stand up, and walked out of the room.

Seeing the few people from the Jiangcai Camp come out one after another, Cang Yuanba said apologetically: "Sorry, everyone, when there was a conflict with Russia a few days ago, the soldiers under this kid were almost all killed or injured, so his emotions are relatively agitated."

Cang Yuanba's words were extremely beautiful, and his face was full of apologies.

Chen Fan couldn't help but smile: "General Cang, I think it's better this way; arrange for me to have a match with this soldier. How about the winner goes to participate in the duel?"

"This..." Cang Yuanba pretended to be in a dilemma for a moment.

Chen Fan added: "Have a match in advance to boost the soldiers' confidence."

"Also... also good." Cang Yuanba glared at Qi Feiyu again and said: "Be careful when you make a move in a moment; if you hurt Chen Fan, watch out, I'll punish you with military sticks!"

When Qi Feiyu heard this, his original grief instantly disappeared, and he was suddenly overjoyed.

"Don't worry, Chief!"
