Most people didn’t know what had happened to Peng Ying. After seeing Peng Lan attack, they thought she was just venting her anger on Jiang Chen since she had been eliminated due to the question she had posed.
She looked furious.
Her attack was fast and fierce. Even if it wouldn’t kill Jiang Chen, it would injure him so badly that he wouldn’t be able to continue the competition.

Stop!

When he saw the sword was about to hit Jiang Chen, General Mu didn’t stay out of it.
After an angry shout, a hard wall flew up in front of Jiang Chen, shooting up from the ground before him.
It was a rectangular waist-high shield, made of steel and carved with a dragon head pattern.
When the shield fell onto the ground, it emitted a strong and shapeless energy. The dragon head transformed into light that charged out of it.
Peng Lan didn’t show any mercy in her attack. The shield’s counterattack was the same, cruel and fatal.
The elders of the Infinite Sword School were given a good scare. They all acted in quick succession. One of them took Peng Lan to flee and another tried to ward off the attack of the shield.
With a muffled sound, the elder resisting the shield flew off the ground, spitting up blood and unable to get up again after falling.
Although he was still alive, he had been badly injured.
Peng Lan was shocked. That elder was a Venerable. Even he had been hurt to this extent, let alone her.
If the elders hadn’t come to her rescue, she would have died!
After seeing an elder of the Infinite Sword School almost killed by the Flying Dragon Dynasty, the crowd outside the square couldn’t help but start a heated discussion, guessing what would happen next.
Soon, they realized the Infinite Sword School wouldn’t get the chance to attack first, since General Mu had rapidly walked towards Peng Lan, protected by an elder, with his lieutenants.

The army isn’t a joke. You’re being impulsive and reckless. Is the Infinite Sword School treating our war like a game?!
General Mu shouted in a deep voice. It was as deep as thunder. Many people heard ringing in their ears.
Peng Lan turned ashen. She finally realized how terrifying military people could be. Even her elder didn’t have the nerve to speak first.

General, it’s not the army. The matters between Peng Lan and that guy are private!
Elder Li said, running over in a rush.

I don’t care. As long as I’m here, order is the most important!

General Mu didn’t care about their private problems even a little. Pointing at Peng Lan, he said,
If this happens again, even the Infinite Sword School won’t be able to protect you!


How great.

A voice suddenly came from the sky, ignoring General Mu’s authority and satirizing him in public.
The lieutenants behind General Mu all flew into a rage. They took out their spiritual weapons and looked in the direction the voice had come from.
When they saw who was there, they were all shocked. They had many people, more than 20, all soldiers in seamless armor. Even their helmets only had some small holes in them.
The Dragon Rebel Army!
General Mu and his lieutenants stood in a battle formation.

Generals, take it easy. Don’t forget we’ve reached a truce with the Realm of Milky.
A middle-aged man in priest frock landed on the square before the Dragon Rebel Army.

Vice leader!
The members of the Infinite Sword School present there greeted him respectfully.
Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Chen knew things were getting complicated.

Infinite Sword School, what is this?
General Mu said unhappily.

Let me answer you.

The general of the Dragon Rebel Army landed slowly. Although covered in steel, he was emitting an energy as aggressive as General Mu was.

We’ve reached a truce in the Realm of Milky. Why are only you allowed to recruit the talented people here?
he said.

What? Do you mean the Infinite Sword School will allow some of their disciples to serve the dynasty and another part to serve the Dragon Rebel Army?
General Mu said with a cold smile.
The Infinite Sword School’s vice leader smiled apologetically. He said,
No matter which camp they’re in, they’re going to the Realm of True Force to achieve something. By then, they’ll represent either of your groups, along with the Infinite Sword School.


The Flying Dragon Dynasty doesn’t need any fence-sitters. Since you’ve chosen—
General Mu sounded so angry that people almost thought he was going to order his army to destroy the Infinite Sword School.
The general of the Dragon Rebel Army interrupted him. At the same time, he took out a parchment, which was emitting a dim light under the protection of a mysterious energy.

General Mu, calm down. This isn’t a decision that was made by the Infinite Sword School or us. It’s an up-to-date decree issued by the Sacred Martial Arts Institute.


The Sacred Martial Arts Institute?

General Mu was struck dumb. He took the parchment and opened it. His will to fight faded into reluctance and helplessness as he read.

So, since we both need to recruit generals, let’s do it together.

The general of the Dragon Rebel Army didn’t bother to take the parchment back. He shouted at the people in the square,
From now on, the dynasty of the tyrant and the revolutionary army will recruit talented people at the same time! Throughout all these years, due to the tyrant’s atrocity, the people have been living tragic lives, and high-level officials are all corrupt, while the generals and soldiers are unknowingly sacrificing their lives on the battlefield.


Whoever wants to join our army can enroll. We assure you that we’ll treat everyone the same!


Shut up!
General Mu flew into a rage before he could finish speaking. He was so angry that he drew out his knife. He said,
You rebels and traitors, you wicked monsters, how could you put it in such a righteous way?!


General Mu, I was just telling the truth. Why are you so emotional?
said the general of the Dragon Rebel Army.

General.
A lieutenant of General Mu walked over to calm him down. He advised the general not to get so emotional, since according to the decree, they wouldn’t be able to fight anyway.
Whoever violated it first would be punished.

So let’s start. Anyone who’s willing to join the revolutionary army, come here!
The general of the Dragon Rebel Army ignored them. He looked towards the square and said,
Even though you were eliminated just now, you have a second chance to choose. We’ll guarantee you everything that the tyrant has guaranteed you.

A large group of people went to his side immediately.
All of them had been eliminated. Since they didn’t have another choice, they didn’t need to waste time thinking.
Peng Lan was among them, too. She stood on the Dragon Rebel Army’s side resolutely.
After being frustrated by General Mu several times, she had lost all good feelings for the Flying Dragon Dynasty.
The Infinite Sword School didn’t stop her. They allowed their best disciple to join the Dragon Rebel Army.
This was a message to the people present—potential development in the Dragon Rebel Army wouldn’t be any worse than in the Flying Dragon Dynasty.
Otherwise, the Infinite Sword School wouldn’t have allowed their best disciple to make such a decision.
Most importantly, the Dragon Rebel Army required nothing to join. The will to get rid of the tyrant was enough.
To the folks of the Realm of Milky, no matter how cruel the Flying Dragon Dynasty was, it had nothing to do with them. They only wanted the opportunity to achieve something in the Realm of True Force.
Even some of those who had passed the first round of the test chose to join the Dragon Rebel Army.
Only a few people stayed on General Mu’s side.

You’re being so picky, but no one wants you in the end,
mocked the injured elder of the Infinite Sword School in a cold voice.
General Mu looked angry, but he said nothing.

General Mu, since both of us have our candidates, why don’t we have a competition?
the general of the Dragon Rebel Army suddenly said.
Peng Lan came forward from the crowd immediately. She looked towards Jiang Chen, who was standing on General Mu’s side.

Do you dare to?
