Travels to the Holy Light Continent

Chapter 93: Conflict with Confucians

Today I followed my grandfather's instructions and came to the Military Academy, and Wushuang followed me.

"Hey! Who is this? What are you doing at the military academy as a magician?"

"If a rookie like you can come, why can't I? Murakami Jiro!"

"Humph! My eldest brother is the deputy commander of the Xuanwu Army, and I will also join the army next year. I am only here to go through the motions and make some connections!"

"After all, you are just working under the protection of your family, so why are you showing off? Let me tell you, with your qualifications, you can join the Xuanwu Corps, which means that the Xuanwu Corps is doomed!" I said disdainfully.

"You! Let me tell you that what matters on the battlefield is military strategy, not fighting alone. If you have the ability, let's have a military exercise to test it out."

Jiro Murakami's words reminded me that since my grandfather asked me to get acquainted with them, I might as well do the opposite and let them take the initiative to get to know me. This would also save time. After all, the Ninth Princess might take action at any time, and it would not be good to be too passive.

"You think you're worthy? Well, I don't want to stay here for long anyway. From today on, I will set up a fighting arena at the school gate. All students and teachers can challenge me. I will have a debate with all the scholars. Anyone who wins will be rewarded with a set of advanced weapons!"

My arrogant words instantly aroused everyone's dissatisfaction. Everyone who could come here was a capable person. Even if they were not capable, they were at least descendants of important officials like Jiro Murakami. Everyone hoped to stand out here and gain a place for themselves in the Qin army.

Soon Wushuang and his two brothers helped me move the military exercise table to the school gate.

"I wonder if there is any teacher willing to condescend to be a referee?" I bowed.

"Let me do it!"

I know the person who came. He is an active officer of the Blue Dragon Legion and sometimes serves as a lecturer at the Military Academy. His name is Drew.

Murakami Jiro was the first to challenge, but he was defeated in less than five minutes. In terms of military exercise strength, he was not even as good as his father. Then others who refused to admit defeat also signed up, but unfortunately their strength was mediocre and no one lasted more than half an hour.

"The principal is here!"

I looked up and saw that it was my grandfather. He walked over to me and said with a smile, "You little brat, I asked you to come to the military academy to make connections, not to insult people. Aren't you bullying the fact that there is no one in the military academy by setting up the arena so openly?"

I walked up to my grandfather and whispered, "Grandpa, I have no choice but to do this. The war between Chu and Qi is imminent, and I don't have the time to get familiar with people. Instead of doing this, I might as well show off and let them know that your grandson is a dragon among men. If they don't want to be my enemy in the future, they will naturally come closer to me."

Grandpa nodded and said, "Okay, but if you lose, you have to teach me a lesson!"

"As ordered!"

The first person my grandfather sent was the student representative Qiqihar. The task my grandfather gave me was that I had 10,000 human infantrymen, and the other side was defending a city with 30,000 soldiers.

Qiqihar relied on his 30,000 soldiers to attack me directly. I used a trick to lure him out of the valley. I left my horses at the entrance of the valley. He thought I was in a panic and took my warhorse.

Qiqihar threatened to capture me alive, so I directly ordered the iron caltrops to be scattered all over the valley. Qiqihar had no choice but to chase me on horseback, which slowed down his speed.

When he spent a day catching up with me, I had already sent a thousand soldiers to prepare traps. Huge fireballs fell from the sky. How could we retreat quickly in the narrow valley? In addition, horses are afraid of fire, and there were many iron bars on the back road, so the fire quickly surrounded them.

I declare Xuanyuan Qingyun the winner of this match.
