Chapter 3034 - Learn to Behave in Myriadpath Valley
"Reverend Daolie said I violated the rules and wanted to kill me, but he doesn"t have the authority to change my score? And after I come out, isn"t it a foregone conclusion?" Tianming was inwardly shaken.
"Li Tianming!" Li Fan"s voice was panicked as he loudly shouted, and Tianming saw him in the crowd. Behind him was a large area, where hundreds of people were scattered about. Some were hidden in the distant clouds, watching from afar. The dense midsky essence was so thick that it formed a mist, making it difficult to clearly see their faces.
Li Fan arrived by his side in three or two steps. He had truly gained courage when his own life was at stake.
He nervously looked at Tianming, but before he could say anything, a burly man about three meters tall emerged from the Skyward Grandpath behind them. The foundation fortress once more descended on Tianming. This time, Tianming was fine, but Li Fan knelt down on the spot, his knees shattering from the impact.
After Reverend Daolie, the other young men and women who had made it onto the Skyward Ranking finally rushed out from within the Skyward Grandpath. Many more names appeared on the white stone tablet, including the second-ranked Huang Daoxiong. His score was only a few tens of thousands, vastly behind Tianming"s more than 1.2 million. The ranking was extremely eye-catching.
Historically, more than half of the rankers being black names was also rare.
Reverend Daolie stared at Tianming, coldly sneering. His voice was deep and as he said, "I didn"t expect you to have some means of survival, but unfortunately it can only be used once. Rulebreaker, wherever you flee, only death awaits!"
He didn"t care how many people were watching. With his status as a reverend, who would dare to speak out if he wanted to give his son a first-cla.s.s debut by crus.h.i.+ng a rootless and uninfluential mundus genius?
Seeing Reverend Daolie so angry, the onlookers outside were slightly surprised. Although they had some thoughts, they gave up after a little consideration.
Just as Reverend Daolie was about to ruthlessly attack again, Li Fan panicked in his heart. With all his courage, he shouted, "Reverend Daolie! I’m Tianming"s guide! As far as I know, this kid has always followed the rules and seems to have no problems. Reverend Daolie said he cheated, so I’d like to ask: where exactly did he cheat?"
Reverend Daolie was taken aback for a moment. He gave Li Fan a glance and sneered, "You"re quite interesting. If you hadn"t spoken out, no one would’ve known you were his guide, you know?"
The implication was clear. You didn"t have to die, but you came looking for death?
Li Fan grit his teeth and continued, "A guide has a sacred duty in Myriadpath Valley! I’m proud of that ident.i.ty, and proud to bring fresh blood in! As a guide, I think I have the right to know how Li Tianming violated the rules. Please enlighten us, Reverend, and let me be convinced!"
"Haha!" Reverend Daolie laughed instead of getting angry. But those who knew him knew that, when he laughed, he was even more angry. He was already furious after being messed with by the minor pathkeeper for half a day, and now he wanted to vent his anger on Tianming. And as a result, there was another ignorant guide who came out. Absolutely ridiculous!
Huang Daolie hadn"t seen many such daring and fearless people. He swept his fiery eyes over Li Fan, and Li Fan"s flesh and blood was lacerated and his whole body collapsed as he screamed. Everyone knew that Reverend Daolie couldn"t find a reason. Everything he did was blatantly obvious, just to show that they were easy targets.
If he were to explain... he couldn"t explain it.
There were about fifty outer mundi geniuses who, like Tianming, had fantasies about Myriadpath Valley, which was the sacred land of martial arts they longed for. But now Reverend Daolie"s tyranny, shamelessness, and blatant actions shattered their impression of Myriadpath Valley.
"I can"t stand it!"
"It"s too unfair to us! It"s too unfair!"
"Everyone, we can"t just sit back and watch!"
The outer mundi geniuses were all proud and pa.s.sionate in their respective mundi. They were all young and couldn"t tolerate injustice. Seeing Tianming and Li Fan being suppressed like this, more than fifty people looked at each other. They all nodded and stood up!
"Please, Reverend, explain the details of Li Tianming"s cheating!"
"Please, Reverend, explain! So that we can all be convinced!"
Tianming looked toward them. The determination and sense of justice in the eyes of those more than fifty mundi geniuses was quite unexpected to him. Although Myriadpath Valley was a cold place, at least they made him feel the warmth of humanity.
"However, they still don"t have the right to speak...." Sure enough, when Reverend Daolie heard this, he sneered again. The foundation fortress s.h.i.+fted to the outer mundi geniuses. One by one, the young men and women knelt or directly lay down, their bodies torn apart. They all suffered injuries and coughed out blood, their faces pale.
They could only scream in pain.
After ruthlessly suppressing them, Reverend Daolie coldly said, "You guys think you"re something? Know your place! Let me teach you your first lesson: learn to behave in Myriadpath Valley! If one more dares pipe up, you’ll join Li Tianming in his fate!”
The outer mundi geniuses couldn’t even speak, let alone resist. Many started crying. Thousands like them had died in the Skyward Grandpath for their dreams. And here were the fifty lucky survivors who reached the holy land, yet now they had laid eyes on the true Myriadpath Valley!
“Demand an explanation? From me? My word is law in the Skyward Grandpath! Understood?” Reverend Daolie"s heavy voice resonated in the ears of each outer mundi genius, making their ears bleed. Tears of humiliation flowed from the eyes of the young people!
Huang Daolie"s domineering words brought applause, and Tianming saw that the ones applauding were the inner valley geniuses led by Huang Daoxiong. They looked at Tianming and the other outer mundi geniuses with extremely proud smiles.
The looks clearly meant We already told you to behave yourself, didn"t we? Why choose to suffer?
