The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

The martial arts competition on the training ground was coming to an end.

Zhao Zhijing, Li Zhichang, and others began to instruct their respective disciples in martial arts.

Lu Yao also received kind guidance from Li Zhichang once again. After all, Lu Yao had brought him a lot of honor in this senior colonel competition, and he was very happy.

Just then, a commotion arose from Zhao Zhijing's side, and Lu Yao couldn't help but look over out of curiosity.

"Yang Guo, this senior brother isn't much older than you. Why don't you have a match with him?"

Zhao Zhijing pointed to a young disciple and looked at Yang Guo with a serious expression.

Yang Guo conceded defeat in the first round because he had not learned any of the Quanzhen Sect's martial arts.

However, Zhao Zhijing clearly did not intend to let Yang Guo off the hook, and directly made him fight one of his disciples.

"Master, I don't know martial arts."

Yang Guo looked at Zhao Zhijing with an arrogant and defiant gaze.

Yang Guo couldn't understand why Zhao Zhijing insisted on bullying him.

Zhao Zhijing narrowed his eyes slightly, and then tested Yang Guo on a few lines of mental cultivation techniques.

Because Yang Guo couldn't learn martial arts, he memorized these mental techniques and formulas very well and recited them without hesitation.

"My disciple, isn't this great? Martial arts skills are all learned through practice. How can you improve without practice? Go now."

Zhao Zhijing smiled at Yang Guo, then waved his sleeve, signaling Yang Guo to step forward for a duel.

Upon hearing this, Yang Guo gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Zhao Zhijing.

"Ah!"

Yang Guo shouted and charged at the disciples in the arena, wildly swinging his fists.

The disciple who was fighting Yang Guo easily dodged Yang Guo's punch by turning to the side and kicked Yang Guo in the back.

Yang Guo was extremely dissatisfied, and in his rage, he quickly got up and continued to charge at the disciples who were fighting.

Looking at Yang Guo's appearance, Lu Yao, standing among the disciples, frowned.

"No wonder Yang Guo later hated the Taoists of the Quanzhen Sect so much. Anyone would have a hard time being bullied like that."

Lu Yao shook his head and sighed.

Yang Guo fell to the ground once again, and blood even flowed from his mouth due to his young age and the heavy blow from his opponent.

"Junior brother, you flatter me."

The disciple who had been fighting Yang Guo bowed to Yang Guo, who was lying on the ground, and then turned to leave the arena.

But Yang Guo on the ground was relentless and pounced on the disciples who were fighting again.

"Stop! Yang Guo, you've already lost!"

Sitting on the bench, Zhao Zhijing frowned and shouted at Yang Guo.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound rang out as Lu Qingdu stepped forward and slapped Yang Guo.

"You scoundrel! You hit me again!"

Yang Guo looked at Lu Qingdu, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot.

"Qingdu! Today is the Senior Colonel's martial arts competition. You either watch from the sidelines or join the fray. Why are you making a move for no reason?"

Zhao Zhijing squinted and shouted loudly.

"Yes! Master."

Lu Qingdu instantly understood the meaning behind Zhao Zhijing's words and looked at Yang Guo with a sinister smile.

"Clap clap clap."

In the blink of an eye, Lu Qingdu made several moves, and Yang Guo received countless slaps.

Yang Guo, his face bruised and swollen, looked at Lu Qingdu, his mind already somewhat clouded.

But the hatred in his heart was already rushing to his head, and his true energy slowly gathered in his hands, causing his cheeks to bulge slightly.

"Toad Kung Fu!"

Lu Yao, who was watching the battle, had a sudden thought. Looking at Yang Guo's appearance, he seemed to hear the croaking of a toad.

As one of the Five Greats, Ouyang Feng's signature skill, Toad Stance, is undoubtedly a top-tier martial art in the world of Condor Heroes.

Even though Yang Guo was young and his skills were not yet profound, among the third-generation disciples, apart from Lu Yao, there was no one who could match Yang Guo.

Yang Guo stomped his foot on the ground and threw both fists at Lu Qingdu.

"boom!"

Lu Qingdu was caught off guard and was sent flying by Yang Guo's attack, lying blankly on the ground and unconscious.

"What happened! Go check on Senior Brother Lu quickly."

The disciples who were watching nearby quickly gathered around.

"how so!"

Zhao Zhijing rushed forward to check on Lu Qingdu's condition. He only wanted to humiliate Yang Guo in public, but he didn't expect things to turn out this way.

If someone dies, his position as chief disciple will be over, and he will be severely punished.

Where is Yang Guo? Where is he?

Zhao Zhijing, his face full of anger, stood up and roared.

"Yang Guo is missing. He must have realized he had caused trouble and ran away."

"A disciple who had just seen Yang Guo said loudly."

"You two take Qingdu to the clinic, the rest of you come with me to bring Yang Guo back!"

Zhao Zhijing instructed two disciples to take Lu Qingdu to the hospital, then turned to the other disciples with a fierce expression.

Soon Zhao Zhijing led his disciples to search for Yang.

The other disciples in the training ground looked at each other in bewilderment; those who were far away were still unaware of what had happened.

Lu Yao thought about the direction Yang Guo had fled in and pondered.

Just like in the original story, Yang Guo fled towards the Tomb of the Living Dead in the forbidden area.

Lu Yao smiled slightly, remembering that he still had the task of guarding the forbidden area, and silently left the training ground.

Watching Zhao Zhijing and the others enter the forbidden area, Lu Yao concealed himself and followed them from a distance.

The group chased into the forbidden area and finally arrived at the entrance of the Tomb of the Living Dead.

Just then, a melody of a zither drifted out, and a stream of yellow hair flew out of the tomb.

These were the jade bees raised by Xiaolongnü.

"It looks like it was Little Dragon Girl who made the move."

Listening to the faint sound of the zither, Lu Yao knew that Xiaolongnu was directing the jade bees to attack Yang Guo, Zhao Zhijing, and the others.

Swarms of jade bees flew frantically toward the group.

"Help! I'm being stung by a bee!"

Yang Guo was stung by the jade bees and was in unbearable pain, so he couldn't help but shout.

Meanwhile, Zhao Zhijing and the others in the distance were also stung by the jade bees and kept running away.

Lu Yao hid in the distant woods and was not discovered by the jade bees.

Just then, a figure flew out of the ancient tomb and grabbed Yang Guo, pulling him inside.

"Grandma Sun, it seems you still brought Yang Guo into the Ancient Tomb."

With his keen eyesight, Lu Yao naturally recognized who was mentioning Yang Guo.

No longer observing the ancient tomb, Lu Yao circulated his true energy and approached Zhao Zhijing and the others.

Lu Yao even considered whether he should kill Zhao Zhijing here.

But then he thought that this was the territory of the Ancient Tomb Sect, and if Zhao Zhi died here, Xiaolongnu would have to take the blame, so he gave up the idea.

Lu Yao approached the group and found them writhing on the ground in agony from the jade bee stings.

"What are you doing here, Uncle Zhao? Let me help you back to the clinic."

Lu Yao approached Zhao Zhijing and pretended to be concerned.

"Nephew! Quickly help me back to the sect."

Despite the pain, Zhao Zhijing spoke to Lu Yao with difficulty.

Jade bees are poisonous, much more potent than ordinary bees. Even a master of internal energy like Zhao Zhijing couldn't withstand them; if the poisoning is severe enough, it can truly be fatal.

After Lu Yao helped Zhao Zhijing and the others out of the forbidden area, he was helped back to the sect by Quanzhen Sect disciples who had come to provide support, and they received treatment there.
