Chapter 155: A Youth from the State of Zhou Provokes

"Let me go, Commander, I can do it!"

"Damn it, I've had my eyes on this bastard for a long time. This time, let me handle him."

"Bloody hell, this brat actually thinks he's Bai Feiyu, daring to come over and provoke us!"

Many people were filled with righteous indignation, shouting at the commander. The commander waved his hand, ignoring the disciple who had volunteered for battle, and instead looked at all the disciples in the Shackled Realm.

"You all need to think carefully. If you go down there now, there is a very high chance you won't come back."

"After all, since the opponent dares to come and provoke us, it means they have absolute confidence—at the very least, enough to slay a few people."

"I think it's better to play it safe!"

The officer spoke out of genuine concern; after all, it wasn't easy for these disciples to grow up, and it would be a terrible shame if they were to sacrifice themselves just like that.

However, since the opponent was challenging them at the first level of the Shackled Realm, sending someone from the second level to respond would probably make them look cowardly and be looked down upon.

"Commander, let me do it. Don't worry, this time I am completely confident I can behead him."

"During the recent sect grand tournament, I defeated someone in the Shackled Realm."

At this moment, the disciple from the Golden Light Sect who had first raised his hand spoke loudly.

"Very well, it'll be you then. But you must be careful, absolutely no carelessness. After all, since the opponent came here, their strength is definitely not much less than yours."

Hearing the officer's words, the disciple nodded immediately and then walked down.

The city gates were opened, and shortly after, everyone saw that disciple walk out and immediately burst into an arrogant laugh:

"Ants of the Zhou Kingdom, how dare you come here and clamor? I really don't know who gave you the guts."

"If you were forced into this by the Zhou Kingdom, I will give you a chance now: join our Zhao Kingdom."

"Once you come to our Zhao Kingdom, we will definitely treat you well, and by then you can have your revenge!"

Clearly, besides being arrogant, this disciple from the Golden Light Sect also pitied his opponent, assuming the latter had come merely to throw his life away.

" insolent brat!"

Hearing these words, the young man from the Zhou Kingdom flew into a rage. He grabbed his broadaxe and launched a ferocious onslaught against the Golden Light Sect disciple.

Seeing this, the Golden Light Sect disciple hurriedly met the attack, and the two began to fight fiercely.

However, the Golden Light Sect disciple soon lost his composure, because his opponent's strength was indeed superior to his. Not long after the exchange began, the Golden Light Sect disciple found himself entirely suppressed.

"Go to hell!"

Seizing a moment when the Golden Light Sect disciple dropped his guard, the youth from the Zhou Kingdom struck fiercely, and in an instant, the head of the Golden Light Sect youth was cleanly severed from his body.

The disciples of the Golden Light Sect let out a collective cry of grief at this sight.

The truth was, the disciple who had gone down was one of the strongest among them, quite renowned within the Golden Light Sect.

To go down there and be slain by the opponent in less than a dozen exchanges made their hearts ache deeply. After all, just like that, they had lost a senior brother who had shared their days and nights—someone who, just a couple of days ago, had been passing the time with them, daydreaming about making a brilliant display of himself on the battlefield.

Now, his life was extinguished.

War was cruel like that; most people never got the chance to unleash their imagined prowess on the battlefield.

Everything ended so abruptly and hastily.

After the Golden Light Sect disciple was killed, cheers erupted from the opposing camp, while the expression of the Zhao Kingdom officer turned quite ugly.

"The proud talents of the Zhao Kingdom are all good-for-nothings! Is there anyone else willing to come down and fight me?"

Having slain the Golden Light Sect disciple, the young man from the Zhou Kingdom clamored arrogantly once again.

"Damn it, what an insolent brat! Watch your grandpa come and kill you!"

Provoked in this manner, an Eagle Alliance member from the Ruins Sect instantly leaped down from the city wall, plunging straight into the arena to fight a decisive battle against the foe.

The people on the Zhao Kingdom's side once again cast their gazes toward the battle below.

This time, someone from the Golden Light Sect had actually wanted to go down as well, but none of them possessed the hot-tempered impulsiveness of the Eagle Alliance member, who had simply vaulted straight off the city wall, forcing them to cede the opportunity.

Though the people of the Golden Light Sect felt somewhat unwilling, they developed a newfound respect for the Ruins Sect at that moment.

At the very least, there were still some decent people within the Ruins Sect.

Everyone stared fixedly at the battle below once more, never expecting that even after descending, the Eagle Alliance member would still be slain by the opponent within two or three exchanges.

This caused all the disciples to draw in a sharp breath of cold air.

It seemed this had been meticulously planned by the Zhou Kingdom to shatter their morale.

This time, the enemy was fully prepared and genuinely formidable. For a moment, many disciples in the Shackled Realm wore grim expressions, unwilling to step forward lightly.

"I'll go down and test him!"

At that moment, Yang Fan and Shi Yuan spoke simultaneously, requesting permission from the officer.

One of them was a proud talent of the Ruins Sect, while the other was an assassin from the Dark Gate; their combat prowess was extraordinary.

Especially Shi Yuan—honestly, if Shi Yuan were to unleash his repertoire of methods in a life-or-death battle against Yang Fan, even Yang Fan would likely find it a tremendous headache.

"Forget it, let me handle this fellow!"

At this juncture, Bai Feiyu let out a sigh, then stepped forward and looked calmly at the officer, his expression as unruffled as an ancient well.

"Have you thought this through? Going down there puts your life in danger!"

The officer looked at the three of them and asked.

At that moment, Bai Feiyu looked at Shi Yuan and Yang Fan and said, "This guy is definitely not someone the two of you can handle. Leave him to me."

"Don't worry, I'll have him captured in no time once I go down. You don't need to fret. It's not that I look down on you, but I just observed him closely, and his true combat strength is definitely above yours."

"If you go, you will most likely not escape death."

Hearing Bai Feiyu put it so plainly, Shi Yuan and Yang Fan naturally chose to heed his words. They immediately stepped back two paces, their attitude making their stance clear without a word.

"Wonderful, Bai Feiyu is finally going to make a move."

"With this, turning the tables will be an absolute certainty, and we won't have to lose face anymore."

"Bai Feiyu, once you go down there, make sure to humiliate him thoroughly and avenge our two fallen disciples!"

Many disciples became ecstatic as Bai Feiyu volunteered for battle. Previously, they hadn't considered letting Bai Feiyu fight simply because they looked down on the fellow below, believing him unworthy of Bai Feiyu's attention.

Now, it seemed Bai Feiyu had no choice but to step in; at the very least, they couldn't let the enemy continue shouting arrogantly like this.

"Since you've thought it through, go on down then. Stay safe!" the officer said to Bai Feiyu.
