Chapter 1624 - 1625: Trampling the Rules
At this moment, even Xue Mingtai squinted his eyes.
He looked at Yang Fei suspiciously, with a half-smile, obviously not believing Yang Fei.
Wen Taikang shook his head, "Young people shouldn't exaggerate so much."
"I'm old, but if you think you can trap my great dragon in one step, that's impossible."
Yang Fei laughed heartily, and True Martial Qi Energy burst from his palm.
His True Martial Qi Energy quickly stirred the air, forming a three-foot-tall miniature tornado, then swept toward the chess pieces on the table.
"Not good!"
At this, both Xue Mingtai and Wen Taikang's expressions changed.
But before the two could make a move, the black and white chess pieces on the board were swept into the air by the Qi Energy.
Countless black and white pieces continuously changed shape, resembling a winding black and white little dragon.
Yang Fei made a casual gesture, and the black and white pieces seemed to have spirituality, separating into black and white.
The pieces fell into the chess jars in front of Wen Taikang and Xue Mingtai, not one missing.
Yang Fei finished all this, clapped his hands, and looked complacently at Xue Mingtai and Wen Taikang.
"Isn't it over now?"
Xue Mingtai and Wen Taikang both widened their eyes.
After a long pause, Xue Mingtai shook his head.
"I knew you weren't up to any good. You've disrupted a perfectly good game."
But Wen Taikang's face darkened.
Just now, his strategy was indeed precarious, but after much deep thought, the situation had improved.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Fei came, he disrupted the game.
This guy is really a huge troublemaker.
However, Wen Taikang also knew that reasoning with this guy was simply asking for trouble.
With his slick tongue, even if the Buddha debated with him, He'd probably be angered to the point of banging his head against the wall.
Thinking of this, Wen Taikang threw his chess pieces and laughed heartily.
"You want to annoy me, but I refuse to get angry."
Yang Fei and Xue Mingtai exchanged a light-hearted smile.
Although Wen Taikang was mild-tempered, he was a master at the Half-Step True Martial level.
Only someone like Yang Fei would dare to mess around with him like this.
The three of them sat down, and Yang Fei looked around, noticing that An Zichen and Sword Emperor were not present, so he casually asked.
"Where are An Zichen and Sword Emperor?"
Xue Mingtai's expression became solemn.
"Sword Emperor went out, and Sister Zichen is in her room in closed-door cultivation."
"Her Martial Arts Realm seems ready for another breakthrough. This time, Zichen is fully determined to break through to the True Martial Realm."
Yang Fei was startled, filled with uncertainty.
"But breaking through to the True Martial Realm will surely incur Divine Punishment. Does Zichen have a way to deal with it?"
Xue Mingtai shook his head, looking somewhat helpless.
"Divine Punishment is a hurdle that no True Martial Master can bypass. Without the Heavenly Secret Talisman, you'll have to endure it."
"Endure it? Is that even possible?"
Thinking about the terror of Divine Punishment, Yang Fei couldn't help but worry for An Zichen.
Xue Mingtai took a deep breath.
"Theoretically, it is possible."
"It's said that the Martial God of yesteryear endured the Divine Punishment with his immense power."
"Sister Zichen intends to imitate the Martial God's method and endure the Divine Punishment through her own strength."
"It's certainly dangerous, but if she can endure it, the power she gains would be beyond anyone's imagination."
Yang Fei nodded, secretly admiring her, yet feeling a bit pained.
An Zichen, with her seemingly pure and sacred demeanor, who would've thought she'd be so wild at heart?
The Martial God was a legendary peerless martial artist, a legendary figure in the martial arts world.
This little girl dares to imitate, truly fearless.
Xue Mingtai seemed to see through Yang Fei's thoughts and took a deep breath.
"Without madness, there is no life. I quite support Sister Zichen."
"Her Gang Transformation has reached a refined realm. Right now, the strength she possesses is no less than a True Martial Master."
"And Divine Punishment is just a rule. True strongmen can trample rules."
Yang Fei nodded, his mind slightly at ease.
"Sigh, all we can do is wish Zichen good luck."
Xue Mingtai's expression suddenly became somewhat peculiar.
"Yang Fei, Sister Zichen has been stuck at the Gangjin Master realm for a long time."
"Do you know why she chose to break through to True Martial now?"
Yang Fei was taken aback, glanced at Xue Mingtai, saw a deep meaning in his eyes, felt a stir in his heart, but shook his head.
Xue Mingtai shook his head, seemed about to say something but said nothing.
"If you have time, you should go see Sister Zichen."
Yang Fei felt a vague sense of unease.
From Xue Mingtai's expression, he detected a certain implication.
It seemed An Zichen's decision to take the risk of breaking through to the True Martial Realm was related to him.
Wen Taikang listened on the side and shook his head.
"An Zichen's Gang Qi Myriad Forms has already reached the highest level."
"But I don't agree with her enduring Divine Punishment to break through to the True Martial Realm."
Saying this, a hint of pain flashed in Wen Taikang's eyes.
"You don't know the horror of Divine Punishment; it's simply not something a mortal can withstand."
Xue Mingtai nodded, agreeing.
"I know it's dangerous, but in martial training, boldness is key. Since Sister Zichen is determined, I have no way to stop her."
The three talked for a while, and Yang Fei shared his plan with Xue Mingtai and Wen Taikang.
Xue Mingtai contemplated it for a moment, then said calmly.
"Your move to cut off the support is quite brilliant. At this moment, the Karate factions have very few experts to send."
"In this Martial Arts Golden Sword Tournament, our Chinese martial artists are sure to steal the limelight."
Yang Fei nodded, "That's why I decided to support the Longwei Martial Arts Hall overseas, making it the leader of Huaxia National Art Halls abroad."
"In the future, the Hongmen Sect and Longwei Martial Arts Hall will support each other, with Yinxue Tower presiding."
"Only then can we truly promote Huaxia National Arts worldwide, achieving a revival of martial arts."
Xue Mingtai nodded in agreement, "I quite agree with your idea; go ahead boldly."
"Here at Yinxue Tower, with Old Wen and me, getting into the top ten shouldn't be a problem."
Yang Fei stood up, clasped his fists in salute to Xue Mingtai.
"In this case, I'll rely on you two."
Xue Mingtai gave a slight smile.
No need for formalities between us, "You are both a martial artist and a soldier."
"Tasks of a soldier, we cannot interfere, but matters in the martial arts circle, I can still oversee."
Saying this, a piercing cold gleam flickered in this gentleman's eyes, sharp as a needle.
Only at such moments could Yang Fei feel Xue Mingtai's dreadfulness, this elegant gentleman was also a deep and unfathomable Grandmaster of Martial Arts.
The three discussed for a while, and Wen Taikang asked Yang Fei.
"Alliance Hierarch, all the masters from various factions at Yinxue Tower have arrived. Everyone misses you greatly. Do you want to meet them?"
Yang Fei shook his head, "Let's skip it this time."
"Since I've hidden my identity, I mustn't let too many people see me."
"Sang Country special agents and spies are everywhere, who knows if we have any Sang Country Special Agents among us?"
Xue Mingtai and Wen Taikang nodded together.
Xue Mingtai sighed deeply.
"You can avoid others, but Sister Zichen, you must visit her."
"If possible, please advise her not to break through to the True Martial Realm for now."
"After all, her current skill power is no different from a True Martial Master, and enduring Divine Punishment is extremely dangerous."
Yang Fei nodded, got up, and bid farewell to the two.
"Alright, I'll go see Zichen now."
