Super War God in the City-Chapter 653 -
Ge Wen pondered for a moment before turning his head to look at Xiao Chubing and the others. He said calmly, "You've all seen the situation today. There's no chance for a peaceful resolution.
In consideration of Ling Fan's face, hand over the Martial Arts Manuals and then cripple your own cultivations. I can make the decision to let you leave Zhongnan!"
"Ha, what a good calculation you've made, your shamelessness is as big as your age!" Yun Fei scoffed with a laugh.
Handing over Martial Arts Manuals and crippling our own cultivations, he really has the nerve to say it, doesn't he? Wouldn't we just become lambs to the slaughter then?
Ge Wen's expression immediately darkened as he said coldly, "So you refuse to toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit? Ling Fan is no longer here, who else can protect you now?
Qi He, are you and your disciple also being stubborn? It's not too late to turn back now!"
"Ha, I, Qi He, am not as heartless and ungrateful as you. I can't bring myself to do such things!" Qi He retorted with a cold laugh.
He was truly grateful and respectful towards Ling Fan from the bottom of his heart. He would rather die than betray him.
"Dean Ge, let's just take action together. Your kindness may not be appreciated by them!" Xiang Hou said with a snort and a laugh.
The surrounding onlookers, looking at Xiao Chubing and the others, were full of eagerness, not because of their beauty, but because of the heaven-defying Martial Arts Techniques.
However, they could only look on enviously, with several elders and the dean present, as well as people from the Five Peaks, it wasn't their place to intervene!
"Since that's the case, you few shouldn't blame me for not keeping old affections. Two family heads, why are you still waiting? Take action!" Ge Wen spoke indifferently, his figure suddenly moving.
Xiao Chubing and the others tensed up immediately, on high alert.
"Run!" Qi He shouted explosively, charging to meet Dean Ge Wen.
Just as Xiang Hou and the others were about to move, suddenly, a voice that was neither cold nor warm rang out abruptly in the middle of the scene!
"This Zhongnan Academy is quite interesting! I just arrived and already witnessed such an entertaining scene. The dean actually robbing his own disciples of their Martial Arts Techniques?" The voice was filled with disdain and mockery.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed, their gazes swiftly turning to locate the source of the voice!
Following the sound, three figures appeared at the doorway, two men and a woman, slowly entering.

These three were none other than Lian You and his companions who had come out of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
The three of them had caused a commotion in the Secular World that day and, after being bombed by the Super Weapon, had secretly sought information to understand the rules of this outside world.
Once they understood, they went to the three legendary Ancient Immortal Mountains of Kunlun, Penglai, and Heavenly Mountain to look around.
Finally, they had come to Zhongnan Academy to see for themselves, as they had learned that Zhongnan Academy is the Great Northern Dipper of the current Martial Arts World outside, representing the strongest power of the entire Martial Arts World!
Although they had gotten an overview from General Ye before, they knew that the most reliable way to learn was to see with their own eyes.
"Hmm? Who are you people? How dare you barge into Zhongnan Academy without permission!" Ge Wen, already in a foul mood that day, immediately turned around and rebuked them coldly.
"Are you the dean of this academy?" Lian You kept one hand behind his back, casually fanning himself with the other, and looked at Ge Wen with a frown.
"Correct, I am indeed the dean of Zhongnan Academy. And who might you be? From which backwater Martial Arts Family have you emerged?" Ge Wen replied coldly.
In the Martial Arts World, who doesn't know about Zhongnan Academy? Those who come here to strut about, other than those from the Five Peaks, are from some Scattered Cultivator Clans that haven't seen the world from their mountain hollows.
Upon hearing this, Lian You's expression suddenly darkened. Thinking about the trouble they caused in the Secular World and being bombed, they indeed seemed like country bumpkins compared to this outside world!
He hadn't taken a liking to this dean from the start, a dean who would seize a Martial Arts Manual from his own disciple—what could he amount to?
Moreover, this man now mocked him as being from the backwoods; Lian You instantly lost all vestige of regard for Ge Wen!
"Tong Xiang, let's see how much this world-wise dean can take. Don't kill him, just don't lose the face of us country folks," Lian You said calmly.
Tong Xiang's face filled with indignation as he heard Ge Wen utter those words. He had been unable to contain himself upon receiving the Young Master's command!
"Yes, Young Master!" Tong Xiang accepted the order immediately, and calmly stood up.
"Heh heh, I've come from the bottom of a mountain to ask you city-folk for a lesson. Fists and feet have no eyes; if I meet King Yan, please be more forgiving!"
With a snort of contempt, Tong Xiang immediately shook his Three-Foot Green Blade, without another word, his figure flashed explosively and he rushed straight towards Ge Wen.
The onlookers around were dumbfounded at the scene.
"Damn, where did this bumpkin come from, daring to create trouble in our Zhongnan Academy? When did our academy become so easily bullied?" one Hidden Dragon Institute disciple said with eyes red and teeth clenched.
"Hmph, daring to run wild in our academy, look in the mirror first before you pee!" another person said, hand on the hilt of his sword, his tone icy.
"How dare you! The dean of this academy is not someone you can provoke at your convenience. Get past me first!" Elder Wan Long immediately couldn't help but roar angrily, his sword drawn as he charged over.
Ge Wen's face was as still as water; everything he had experienced today had soured his mood to an extreme. Although this country bumpkin wasn't worth his time, he desperately needed to vent his emotions on this ignorant creature!
"Elder Wan, stand down. I am in a good mood today and will give him the honor of an opportunity!" Ge Wen ordered indifferently, his Mysterious Iron Longsword suddenly striking out.
Hearing his words, Elder Wan immediately halted, withdrew his advance, and stood in place.
Having been in the academy for so many years, he understood the dean's temperament very well. The dean was usually as deep as an abyss and seldom lost his temper. Insisting on taking action himself now showed that he was extremely aggravated.
This attack was clearly not meant to leave his opponent with a good chance at life.
"You bring disaster on yourself; utterly stupid!" Elder Wan Long let out a cold huff, and immediately sheathed his sword.
As thoughts raced through his mind, he saw the dean's Mysterious Iron Sword sweep across the sky, thunder rolling and slashing straight down like the setting sun over the Long River.
In contrast, the swordsmanship of the young man acting was plain and uninspiring, showing no sign of momentum whatsoever.
"Heh heh, with such swordsmanship, you dare to show off? You won't even know how you died later!" Elder Lian Cheng couldn't help but sneer as well.
The crowd of disciples at the academy erupted into scornful laughter at the sight. At this level, any random Outer Court disciple they pulled out could leave him in the dust.
"Swoosh!"
In an instant, their swords clashed, colliding at one point.
There was no earth-shattering boom, time seemed to freeze in that moment. Tong Xiang's plain sword strike actually held a restrained Sword Intent, and moreover, his blade was a Spiritual Artifact.
With a strike like drawing a sword to slice through water, he aimed directly at Ge Wen's head, cleaving it like a melon, cutting Ge Wen's own sword in two.
"What?" Ge Wen's expression filled with shock, as he felt his sword crumble like tofu against his opponent's strike!
"Swoosh!"
Ge Wen's eyes widened, his pupils suddenly contracting. After slicing through his longsword, the Sword Light flashed before his eyes, and then he lost consciousness!
"Hmph, so weak, and you dare be a dean? Do you have any real experts here who can show me, a country bumpkin from the mountains, a thing or two?" Tong Xiang sneered as he glanced at Ge Wen's bisected corpse, then turned his head to look at the stunned crowd.
It was a joke to him. He, a formidable figure at the Half-step Divine Realm, slaughtering this insignificant Martial Saint like Ge Wen, was as easy as an adult hitting a child—far too simple!
Elder Wan Long and the others, upon seeing Ge Wen's body on the ground, felt like they were plunged into an ice cellar, their minds grinding to a halt!
Xiang Hou, Mu Ji, and others also had dumbfounded expressions. That one sword strike from the opponent was anything but ordinary—it was effortlessly delivered!
Even Xiao Chubing was stunned. Who in the Martial Arts World was this terrifying individual?
The disciples of Zhongnan Academy were utterly silenced, their eyes reflecting nothing but fear when they looked at Tong Xiang and his two companions!
