Crack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As stone dust continuously fell from the tablet, clear, orderly characters began to emerge on its surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching this, Yan Zhi felt deep admiration—he could carve characters into stone with his bare hands too, but to carve them so precise and balanced required exquisite control of force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since his location had been exposed, Fang Can no longer pretended—he directly wrote his demands onto the stone tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tablet detailed the rules of the contest: no limit on number of challengers, no restriction on methods; any person, any means were permitted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After spending several incense sticks writing the hundred-character contest rules, Fang Can lifted the massive tablet with one hand and stood it at the martial school’s entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slammed the tablet down with a thunderous crash, turned, and closed the gate again; the crowd gathered behind him surged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the innocence of this world’s ancient era, most people still could not read.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, a literate scholar was found who explained the tablet’s contents to everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Welcome to challenge me (Fang Can).”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please abide by the following rules.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Remember, Fang Can needs rest—do not challenge during rest hours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only Xiangxiang Wu Gong practitioners are eligible to challenge.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“During the challenge, all means are permitted, including but not limited to assassination, poisoning, ambush, sneak attacks, and mob assaults.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“During the challenge, please minimize damage to the surroundings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Below are the times Fang Can permits challenges—recommended to form teams and challenge collectively.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is this?” As the scholar finished reading the challenge rules, everyone was baffled, then intrigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they had never seen anything like it before—openly displaying challenge rules and demanding everyone follow them—this was sheer audacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an era without the internet, entertainment was simple; the biggest daily topic was always the changes in the Tianji List’s rankings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearby residents found that since Fang Can’s arrival, new events had multiplied, daily fights were now guaranteed, topics changed too fast to keep up, and life had become thrilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After posting the tablet, Fang Can entered the martial school, only to see from afar the Xiangxiang Wu Gong practitioners he had just defeated gathered around Ye Yonglie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Fang Can return, Ye Yonglie stepped forward to explain: “Master, these are devout followers moved by your divine miracle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Ye Yonglie’s words, the Xiangxiang Wu Gong practitioners Fang Can had just defeated began fervently praying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the few devotees before him, Fang Can felt awkward—he hadn’t expected their transformation to be so swift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if sensing Fang Can’s confusion, Ye Yonglie added: “Master, as your fame grows, many seek to assassinate you—but even more seek to worship you as a god.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is only the beginning. As time passes, believers from Dayan and neighboring nations will come to kneel at your feet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Those who wish to worship are countless as stars, but these martial artists know little—they do not even know whom to worship, so they judge only by reputation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Every Wu Gong on the Tianji List is the same—even the lowest-ranked has at least a thousand followers offering worship.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever those heretics’ false gods fight, hordes of believers arrive to cheer—even if crushed by the battle’s residual waves, they cling on until their deity’s battle ends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And you, Master, as the top of the Shenglong List, renowned across nations, draw countless worshippers—most are already riding here. You need only wait a while to see.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Ye Yonglie paused: “This morning alone, I’ve received over a thousand applications to join our church, and most have pledged to donate all their wealth just to become members.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though battle-hardened, Fang Can still found this situation absurd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that even in this mind-based world, traffic ruled—and the Tianji List was like an otherworldly trending chart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you gained fame, even if you stayed for only a month, wealth would pour in uncontrollably—you’d never again worry about training expenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And you’d have at least a thousand servants who worship you as a god and obey your every command—no need to describe the feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some martial artists were so corrupted by this spiritual ecstasy that they abandoned cultivation entirely, spending the rest of their decades in unrestrained indulgence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, Master, go forth boldly—even if you stand against the entire world, we, your faithful sheep, will follow behind you,” Ye Yonglie bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...Why would I stand against the world?” Fang Can asked, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because Master, you will inevitably rule this world, bring war to the land, and we shall be your soldiers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the fanatics before him, Fang Can was utterly speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hoped no future fan wars would erupt over rival idols, triggering massive battles between sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, what is ‘Shi Xin Feng’?” Fang Can asked, recalling the martial artist he had defeated earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shi Xin Feng means a martial artist’s Wu Dao heart has shattered, causing them to go insane and lose all logic,” Ye Yonglie explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take the former Chu Overlord as a classic example—he suffered seven consecutive defeats, causing Yang to generate Yin; he transformed from a peerless warrior into a peerless beauty, and even his lineage underwent a complete change.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Can roughly understood what Shi Xin Feng meant, then turned and walked into the martial school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, where are you going?” Ye Yonglie asked, watching Fang Can’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To deal with a traitor within the school. Gather all the disciples here now,” Fang Can said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Traitor!” At Fang Can’s words, Ye Yonglie’s brows snapped upright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He too suspected the leak had come from within the school, but had no proof.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Master. I’ll summon them at once,” Ye Yonglie whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the martial school, Yuan Dang trained among the disciples, but his inner state was far from calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Yan Zhi ran over from afar and shouted: “Hey, everyone gather! The Divine One has an announcement—come together!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Yuan Dang’s steady hands trembled violently, yet he kept his face expressionless as he blended into the crowd heading toward the dining hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1084,"2026-06-20T07:05:46.054Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","67dac46698dbc1c8a5b4e1672a572b4147a95ecf0f4db5e7c1cbb12a68599aba","this-high-martial-world-is-too-crazy-chapter-62","this-high-martial-world-is-too-crazy-chapter-60",368,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-high-martial-world-is-too-crazy-cover.jpg"]
