the blade in his hand flashed a blue glow.The sword qi was extremely sharp and imbued with a holy aura.The dragon's roar, accompanied by the sound of swords cleaving through the air, echoed together....The referee looked at Shi Fang and asked, "Shi Dashuai, are you sure you want to give up the finals"

"Affirm!" Shi Fang gritted his teeth.

The referee nodded and announced loudly, "The Silver Blade Corps chooses to forfeit! The opponent's Swift Dragon Corps automatically wins."

"This year's military district competition, the champion belongs to the Swift Dragon Corps from the Jiangnan Military District!"

Gasps of astonishment filled the room!

Prior to the competition, the Swift Dragon unit from the Jiangnan Military Region, widely considered to be the weakest on paper, surprisingly emerged as the champion of this year's military region competition!

No one expected this outcome!

All eyes below were on Fang Yu standing on the stage, shock etched in every face.

This man, single-handedly, forced the Celestial Legion to concede defeat and completely intimidated the Silver Blade Legion into withdrawing.

So powerful!

Everyone knows that after today, the name Dao Tian will resound throughout the entire Huaxia Military Region, causing a huge sensation!

"Shi Dpao, how come he gave up Didn't he say before that he wanted to win first place" A handsome guy in the audience couldn't help but sarcastically remarked.

Shi Fang's face changed, he turned to look at the handsome man and said, "I only said I was aiming for first place. Now second place isn't bad either, it's better than being eliminated in the first round like you guys."

This handsome man was speechless after being refuted by Shi Fang.

"Shi Dapao, since you've already given up, don't be so arrogant Huang Dashao's Sunset Corps at least fought until the very end." Xia Heguang glanced at Shi Fang indifferently and said.

Xia and Guang are in a good mood now.

Whenever Shi Fang had the chance, he would mock him. At that time, Xia and Guang was completely unable to refute.

The cycle of feng shui continues to turn.

Now, it's his turn to strike back.

Seeing Xia and Guang's indifferent and sarcastic expressions, Shi Fang was so angry that his face turned as green as iron. He puffed up his neck and said, "What's there to be proud of by winning the game with the help of outsiders If I wanted to hire an outside aid, wouldn't it be easy to invite the geniuses from the Chen and Zheng families in Huaibei and secure first place"

"Shi Dapao, just keep your mouth shut. First of all, don't even talk about whether those geniuses can rival Dao Tian... The most important thing is, would they even accept your invitation Those martial arts families' geniuses are arrogant and wouldn't consider being your backup." Luo Si Guang said from the side.

Shi Fang was speechless from being choked.

The handsome men around each exchanged a glance, both seeing the smile in each other's eyes.

Shi Dagpao is such an unpleasant person, everyone is happy to see him fail now.

……

After the referee announced the result, Fang Yu walked off the Longwei Stage.

Xia Heguang's commission is complete, he should be leaving now.

Now his mind is full of things about the Ziyangu Palace.

From what Wanlong said before the self-explosion, we can glean several pieces of information.

First, there are certainly entities like the one in Bandung, existing as souls residing within the bodies of others.

Secondly, from what Wanlong said, the words “recovery” and “revenge,” show that Ziyanguang Palace was indeed not destroyed.

Third, the Purple Flame Palace had disappeared for nearly two thousand and five hundred years. Until last month, Fang Yu only met Xiong Bahu, who mastered the secret techniques of the Purple Flame Palace, in the underground boxing gym.

This indicates that the revival of Ziyan Palace probably began recently.

How did they revive And where did these spirits come from

Besides these doubts, what bothered Fang Yu even more was the very existence of Ziyan Palace!

He once thought he had avenged the disciples of Tiandao Sect and destroyed Ziyan Palace!

But now it seems he hasn't done that!

The Ziyangu Palace was not destroyed, and over two thousand years later, it is attempting to revive in some way!

Fang Yu's eyes blazed with crimson, and his body exuded a chillingly sharp aura of killing intent.

He would never let anyone from the Zi Yan Palace go, he must make the Zi Yan Palace completely extinct!

Xia Xiaoying saw Fang Yu walk down the Longwei Stage and was about to go over, but she felt a surge of murderous aura.

Her face changed, and she stood there dumbfounded.

At this moment, Fang Yu came back to his senses and walked towards Xia Xiaoying.

"Xia Heguang's commission, I have completed. I hope he doesn't forget my payment. I'm leaving first." Fang Yu said, turning and walking away.

Looking at Fang Yu's departing figure, Xia Xiaoying frowned slightly, her eyes complex.

After Fang Yu left, the referee on the Longwei platform let out a long sigh of relief.

He looked at the several handsome men in the audience and hurried over to them.

I need to tell the several big bosses about Xiao Chen's serious injuries.

……

"His whole left arm is gone!" Hearing the referee's words, several big guys' faces changed dramatically.

Especially Xia and Guang, their faces turned solemn.

Xiao Chen is seriously injured. This is a big deal.

Although he didn't die, losing his entire left hand is no small matter!

Any martial artist who loses an arm is as good as having half their skills gone!

Not to mention that this person is Xiao Chen!

He is a general in the capital's military district, personally praised by the supreme commander as the king of soldiers, and the future face of the Chinese military district!

Besides these factors, Xiao Chen is also the eldest son of the prominent Xiao family in Beijing. Due to his exceptional talent, he has received focused training from the family.

Now, he has lost his entire left hand!

This will seriously affect his future!

If this gets out, the Xiao family, the Capital Military Region, and even Marshal-in-Chief's side, will probably all be held accountable!

Shi Fang looked at Xia and Guang, his eyes twinkling with amusement.

"Old Summer Dog, you've really gotten yourself into trouble this time! Let's see how you plan to face all these accusations."

At this time, Xia Heguang, who had been sullen and silent all along, spoke up: “I think Captain Daotian is not at fault.”

"Not a mistake You broke Xiao Chen's arm! Xiao Chen is a war god! This isn't a mistake" Shi Fang's eyes widened, questioning fiercely.

Xia Heguang ignored Shi Fang and continued, "As you all saw just now, during their fight, Xiao Chen used techniques several times that were enough to kill Dao Tian, I'm talking about that purple flame..."

"If Dao Tian's strength hadn't been strong enough, he would have died."

According to the rules, the two parties engaged in combat are not allowed to kill each other. However, Xiao Chen has clearly violated this rule.

"Now that Xiao Chen's strength is inferior to Dao Tian, and he has lost an arm in the battle... This is just a normal injury sustained during combat, there's no need to pursue it further."

"You're talking a lot of useless things. Do you think the Xiao family would listen to your explanation" Shi Fang said playfully.

Luo Siguang glanced at Xia Heguang and said, “Old Xia, this Daotian… we still need to take him down first. When the higher-ups come to investigate, at least we can hand someone over.”

"Otherwise, you'll have to take responsibility for him."

“He, he’s already left here.” At that moment, the referee beside him stammered.

"Left! He left before even the awards ceremony started" Luo Si Guang's face changed, he asked.

"It's obvious, he's running away to escape punishment." Shi Fang said with a sinister smile.

"Send someone to stop him at once!" Lu Si Guang ordered the guards behind him.

He is the organizer of this military district competition, and he is responsible for everything that happens here.

But at this moment, Xia and Guang reached out to stop Luo SiGuang.

"Don't stop him. If the Xiao family or the Capital Military Region have any objections, let them come to me directly. I'll talk to them."

……

All that happened at the military district, Fang Yu was completely unaware of.

He was already on his way to the ruins of Ziyan Palace.

According to my memory, the location of the Purple Flame Palace should be in the south of the central region.

More than two hours later, Fang Yu arrived in Wen'an City, a city in the south of the central region.

Back then, this area was a forest and mountains, the location of Ziyan Palace was easy to find.

But now, it has become a fairly developed city with high-rise buildings everywhere, and you can't see anything else.

Because it was completely different from what he remembered, Fang Yu couldn't find the ruins of Zi Yan Palace precisely.

After all, over two thousand years have passed. The ruins of Ziyan Palace are very likely to have been leveled and covered with high-rise buildings.

As Fang Yu walked down the street, the anger in his heart gradually dissipated.

It is obvious that he cannot find the ruins of Ziyan Palace this way.

And even if the ruins of Ziyan Palace were found, there's a good chance we wouldn't get any information from them.

How can I find information about the Purple Flame Palace

Only those who can find the next successor and master the secrets of Ziyan Palace!

Maybe we could ask Qin Yimo and Xia Heguang for help.

With a decision made, Fang Yu's mood improved considerably.

At that moment, he caught a whiff of something fragrant.

Fang Yu came to his senses and found that he had walked onto an old street.

There were many pedestrians on the street, but it was very quiet.

And the source of the fragrance was a roadside stand selling roasted sweet potatoes.

Fang Yu stepped forward and got a roasted sweet potato.

The old woman selling roasted sweet potatoes looked kind and benevolent.

"Here you go, be careful it's hot," the old woman chuckled, handing a roasted sweet potato to Fang Yu.

Fang Yu took the roasted sweet potato and stuffed it directly into his mouth, biting down halfway.

So good!

He was really quite hungry.

"Three yuan," the old woman said with a smile.

Fang Yu touched his pocket and his face changed slightly.

He forgot to bring money.

"No money Then leave your life behind." The old woman's face instantly changed, opening her mouth to reveal two extremely long fangs.

Fang Yu frowned slightly, wanting to move, but found his feet bound by something.

He bent down and saw two snakes with colorful patterns all over their bodies, coiling around his feet.

And at this moment, the entire street scene suddenly vanished, replaced by a cave.

Is this... an illusion

After realizing this, Fang Yu's face changed immediately.

What was he just eating, that roasted sweet potato....Of course, by this point, the actions of the ancient demon emperor were quite clear.Fang Yu looked at Qino and said faintly, "I also want to see the ancient demon emperor, but now... I have to catch...
