Chapter 193: Into the Second Round

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

The three hostages were in utter disbelief. If Fang Zhengzhi was stupid to jump, Yan Xiu was clearly not some who would do something so dumb!

Furthermore...

Even if Yan Xiu thought that Fang Zhengzhi was right, he need not be in such a hurry to jump.

Since Fang Zhengzhi had already jumped, he could have waited for the announcement that Fang Zhengzhi passed before jumping.

But he jumped even before the announcement was made.

This was clearly irrational.

"Has he also become stupid from hanging out with Fang Zhengzhi?"

Just as they were thinking about it, a crisp voice rang out in the sky.

"Fang Zhengzhi is through to the second round!"

"Hahaha... Fang Zhengzhi is indeed out, which one of you will let me push you... oh? Hold on... he advanced to the second round?!" Ping Yang’s expression stiffened.

The three hostages were also shocked.

"Fang Zhengzhi advances to the second round?!"

"How is that possible?!"

"He really jumped over? Is that possible?"

The three hostages looked at each other, filled with disbelief. They found it hard to accept the truth.

Fang Zhengzhi did not push them off the cliff.

If he advanced to the second round, that could only mean one thing.

He crossed the Broken Bridge!

"He... he really crossed it?!" Ping Yang stared at the white mist, unable to bring herself to believe that this was true.

The Broken Bridge in the World of the Sage...

No Heavenly Reflection state person had ever crossed it in centuries.

But Fang Zhengzhi managed?

"What is his cultivation level? No way... no way he has broken through the Heavenly Reflection State right?" Ping Yang only had one explanation, but that explanation seemed even more ludicrous.

Just at that moment, a second voice rung out in the air.

"Yan Xiu advances to the second round!"

"What?!" Ping Yang’s jaw dropped. Her surprise and shock was even more than when Fang Zhengzhi had saw her naked.

The three hostages were also in shock.

If Fang Zhengzhi had passed because he had been hiding his true powers, then how did Yan Xiu make it over?

"You can actually jump over!" The three hostages could not believe it. But they had to, that was the truth.

It had happened right in front of their eyes.

...

Time passed slowly. By the time Ping Yang and the others reacted, minutes had past.

Ping Yang quickly looked to the three hostages.

"You all jump first!"

"What?! Please no... princess please!"

"If not, I will push all three of you down!" Ping Yang picked up the Blazing Qilin Spear, a raging flame around her.

She looked like she was bathing in fire.

The three of them looked at Ping Yang and resigned to fate.

"Your Highness... since we are going to jump, can I jump from here?" One of the hostages looked at the Broken Bridge. He felt that jumping from the cliff side was too crazy.

If he had to jump, he would rather jump from the Broken Bridge.

"Okay then, go ahead!" Ping Yang looked at the Broken Bridge, then at the cliff, her lips curling upwards into a sneer before nodding.

The hostage did not notice her sneer. Upon hearing that he could jump from the bridge, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He did not delay any longer.

He rushed to the Broken Bridge and leapt before Ping Yang could change her mind...

"Ah!" His screams could be heard as he fell.

...

"Song Zailin has been eliminated"

The crisp voice resounded through the air after a brief pause.

When Ping Yang heard the voice, her smile became even more radiant, "What an... idiot! You two, where do you want to jump from?"

"We will jump from there!" The other two hostages broke out in cold sweat upon hearing Song Zailin’s elimination. They chose to jump from the same spot as Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu without hesitation.

"Okay, you all can go ahead." Ping Yang nodded.

"Young master Tang please?"

"Young master Li, I think you should go first!"

The two of them began to push each other forward.

"Enough nonsense. You, stay. If he is eliminated, I will push you down. You... go jump!" Ping Yang ordered them in exasperation.

The two hostages looked at each other. They knew that they had no other choice. At least they had a chance to live if they jumped.

As such, young master Tang grit his teeth and sprinted to the cliff. Then, he leapt into the white mist.

Ping Yang looked on nervously as she saw him disappear into the mist.

...

"Tang Jiming advances to the second round!"

The crisp voice rang out in the air once again.

"Hahaha... I am so smart. You have to jump from that location!" Ping Yang was excited when she heard the voice.

The other hostage began to sweat, "What has this got to do with your highness? Fang Zhengzhi figured it out."

"What did you see?"

"Ah?! I said that your highness is smart and able to see through the trap!"

Do you really think I’m stupid? I just don’t want to kill you and stop me from going through using the Broken Bridge. Else, I would stab you right now with my spear." Ping Yang walked towards the cliff, ignoring the hostage.

The hostage did not say anything else. He exclaimed to himself, "Your highness... you can only pierce with a spear!"

...

Inside the Imperial Academy.

King Duan and Han Zhangfeng were looking at the screen.

It was showing the third round of the World of the Sage. After intense competition, almost all of the candidates were in the third round, leaving only a few in the second round.

"I guess Nangong Mu will have to start showing his true abilities now?" King Duan sipped his tea excitedly.

Anyone who could enter the third round was probably in the Heavenly Reflection State. It would not be as easy to conceal one’s abilities now.

Just at this moment, a black robed messenger ran from the other room.

"Message for King Duan, Ninth Prince and Official Han. Fang... Fang Zhengzhi has already entered... entered the second round." The messenger struggled to swallow his saliva as he delivered the message, clearly still recovering from his shock.

"What’s the use of being so flustered?" Han Zhangfeng was clearly displeased by the messenger’s demeanor.

"Yes... yes..." the Messenger replied, mouth agape.

"No worries, it’s over already. How many people are left in the second round?" King Duan waved Han Zhangfeng away and did not chide the messenger for his flustered demeanor.

"In... in reply to your highness, there were originally two left, but now, there are seven." The messenger knew that he was slightly out of sorts. He took a deep breath before continuing his message. What he just saw was way too stunning.

"Two left? Haha... that’s not enough for the three of them. They’ll have to fight amongst themselves... hang on, you said seven?"

King Duan smiled when the messenger replied with two. But upon closer thought, it did not seem right. How did two plus three give seven?

"Messenger Wang, are you okay? You seem to be talking nonsense. How are there seven people in the second round? Didn’t you say that there was no one left in the first round?" Han Zhangfeng’s tone was icy.

"King Duan, Official Han, please forgive me! There is no one left in the first round. However, of the three people Fang Zhengzhi and his group captured, two of them passed as well, so there are seven in the second round."

"What do you mean? You’re saying that two of his hostages passed... are you saying..." Han Zhangfeng seemed to finally see the light and his expression changed.

"They... passed the Broken Bridge Barrier!"
