Chapter 500 A Powerful Alliance!
"Being humble makes one humble; being humble allows one to take more; taking more allows one to rise higher in status."
The soft words, like a spell, echoed throughout the world, then reached everyone's ears, silencing them all.
They were all pondering the meaning of that sentence.
"Goodness, only when a person is in a subordinate position can he be humble; only when he is humble can he gain widely; only when he gains widely can he actually be above others. It is saying that one must be humble and modest in order to make progress. This saying is not only effective for those present, but also for us. Every word of this saying is a gem."
After pondering for a moment, Xie Ming's eyes revealed a hint of admiration. He then clapped his hands, and his face seemed to brighten up considerably.
"That's a good point; perhaps it can serve as a warning to the world."
Mr. Kong frowned, then slowly relaxed, and nodded, agreeing that Ye Ru's words were the kindest of words.
As soon as Ye Ru uttered those words, they transformed into beams of light that enveloped Shi Tian, leaving everyone present somewhat astonished.
"What is this?"
A scholar stared wide-eyed and said.
"Is this a golden rule?"
Looking at the light enveloping Shi Tian, the other scholar was also somewhat surprised and said.
"How is this possible? These are truly invaluable words of wisdom!"
Upon seeing this scene, both Yan Jin and Yan Feng were shocked, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
The other party was actually able to offer some invaluable advice!
In this Confucian and Taoist continent, some people's words, if recognized by the Academy of Saints, will have extremely powerful influence and the effect of educating all people. Such words are called golden words of wisdom.
The light enveloped Shi Tian, making his scarlet eyes clearer and erasing the violence from his face.
"What's wrong with me?"
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two sides, Shi Tian unconsciously took the side of the human race, which made Yan Jin and Yan Feng's expressions somewhat gloomy.
Shi Tian's talent is also evident to all. The three of them could fight Ye Ru and his two companions to a draw, but now Shi Tian alone could probably hold off two or three Ghost Scholars.
"Thank you, I apologize for my rudeness."
Shi Tian bowed to Ye Ru apologetically, only now realizing that when faced with the threat of foreign races, the human race should be united!
"Good, now join us in fighting the enemy."
Kong Ling patted Shi Tian on the shoulder and said casually, "With Shi Tian as a fresh force, their human race's chances of winning will be much greater."
"Defeat these ghostly scholars!"
The scholars behind Ye Ru also shouted in unison.
Seeing the high morale of his side, Ye Ru smiled and waved his hand, and the Three Perfections Literary Brush appeared in his hand.
Gazing at the Three Perfections Writing Brush radiating a dark light, Ye Ru felt a strange sensation rise within him.
This pen was a gift from Grandpa Su, who said it was incredibly versatile, but he hasn't seen any of its variations since.
"Alright, you guys must hold them off. I'll handle Ye Ru. If anyone messes up, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Seeing the expressions on Ye Ru's and the others' faces, Yan Jin turned his head and said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the ghost scholars all became solemn, and a chill ran down their spines. They all knew that Yan Jin was ruthless.
As soon as he finished speaking, the ghost scholars formed an arc and surrounded Ye Ru and the others. Then, like tigers descending a mountain, they suddenly attacked Ye Ru and the others.
Meanwhile, fierce talent and demonic power also spread throughout this world.
The two teams finally erupted, leaving the spectators thrilled, their eyes darting back and forth, trying to find the ultimate victor.
"We've finally made it to the finals!"
Seeing this, Zhang Dong smiled, his face flushing slightly. After all, this was, after all, the land of the Jin people, but in this literary gathering, it had become a battlefield for the Yanhuang people.
If this matter gets out, it will probably make all the scholars of the Yanhuang Kingdom feel a great sense of indignation.
"Not bad, they assembled the team really quickly."
On the referee's stand, Xie Ming stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"However, it was thanks to those wise words that Shi Tian was able to wake up from his struggle. In the end, the Shi family should thank Ye Ru."
Mr. Kong nodded, looking at the competition stage where the battle had already begun, and said.
boom!
Talent burst forth in all directions, but strangely, there was no one around where Ye Ru and Yan Jin were.
It was obvious that they all knew that Ye Ru and Yan Jin were rivals.
Standing in front of Ye Ru, Yan Jin was half enveloped in black energy and half in talent, making him look extremely strange.
As Ye Ru watched this scene, feeling the oppressive aura emanating from it, his expression grew increasingly solemn.
It seems that the Ghost Scholar has indeed paid little attention to cultivating his academic knowledge; on the contrary, he has focused on cultivating his talent and charisma.
"If you go down now, you still have time. Otherwise, if you lose your seven-consecutive-run streak, you'll really lose face."
"No matter how great your talent is, in this world of talent, I am the supreme one!"
Yan Jin's gaze turned cold as he looked at Ye Ru as if he were a defeated man. The previous six rounds had already humiliated him, and he was determined to win this final round, even if it cost him his life. Otherwise, he would suffer a fate worse than death when he returned to the demon race.
"I'll give it my all. You're not a scholar, are you?"
Sensing this faint demonic power, Ye Ru raised an eyebrow and guessed.
Upon hearing this, Yan Jin didn't say anything. He slightly raised his foot and then suddenly brought it down. A burst of talent at the level of a Juren (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations) swept outwards!
This scene sent shockwaves through everyone present, leaving them with expressions of disbelief.
"They're actually scholars who passed the imperial examinations! These bastards! It seems they used some kind of drug that diminishes their talent."
With intense anger on his face, Xie Ming clenched his fist and punched a hole in it, then said in a cold voice.
"It turns out he's a scholar who passed the imperial examination. It seems the murderer is about to be exposed."
Shi Tianze wasn't angry at all; he just stared intently at Ye Ru, watching his every move.
"Sure enough it is."
Feeling the power of this scholar, Ye Ru sighed, but gripped the Three Perfections Literary Pen even tighter.
"With this level of ability alone, it's just wishful thinking to think you can beat me in terms of talent."
Ye Ru smiled at Yan Jin, his expression remaining unchanged. He closed his eyes slightly, and his inner energy slowly increased, while he began to activate the Cloud and Water Zen Heart.
His heart pounded continuously, and with each beat, pure talent flowed into Ye Ru's limbs.
"Then let's give it a try!"
Yan Jin said coldly, and then his body moved like lightning, accompanied by a flash of black shadow, and Yan Jin instantly arrived in front of Ye Ru.
Seeing Yan Jin turn into a line in the blink of an eye, Ye Ru's pupils shrank, and the tip of the Three Absolutes Literary Heart Brush suddenly became as sharp as glass, and then stabbed towards a certain place.
boom!
However, a muffled sound suddenly rang out from that place, and a dark figure swept out from the void, a folding fan appearing in his hand, the fan surface precisely aimed at the tip of the Three Perfections Literary Brush.
boom!
The sound of metal clashing echoed here. Ye Ru then staggered back dozens of steps, finally twisting his foot to stop in place, while Yan Jin also staggered back five or six steps.
However, just as the two stopped, they stomped their feet again and continued to charge forward. For a moment, the battle scene here was dazzling.
"If this is all the strength you have, then I am truly disappointed. You should hurry up and show me your true strength so that I can see just how powerful the Ghost Scholar really is."
At one point, the two separated again, and Ye Ru said, slightly out of breath.
To be honest, this ghost scholar is indeed inferior to human scholars in terms of academic talent, but in terms of literary combat, they have a great advantage.
