"My name is... Shen Zhan!"

"True Martial Hall... Black Armor Army Commander!"

"Kill!"

"On the land of the human race, the alien race shall not exist!"

"Kill!"

"Ahhhh!"

"Betrayal, why betray, my brothers, dead without closing their eyes!"

"Kill!"

The aura on the War Soul's body appeared to fluctuate extremely violently.

Luo Qingyi frowned, raised her hand, and suppressed him so that he could not move.

Ye Chen looked at Luo Qingyi, and said, "Elder Qingyi, have you heard of the True Martial Hall?"

Luo Qingyi nodded and said, "It is a force that has existed for extremely long ages. My father has had contact with them, but not deeply involved. Back then, when dealing with the Celestial Demons, the True Martial Hall offered help, but my father refused.

The alien race mentioned by Shen Zhan should have been an invasion."

I just carefully examined Shen Zhan's situation, he fell about three thousand years ago."

"What are the aliens?" Ye Chen asked.

"Like the Demon Race and the other demons, on the Celestial Essence Continent, the human and demon races have always existed. The Demon Race is an invader, and besides them, there are other races that from time to time also invade from the Outer Heaven World."

Ye Chen roughly understood and did not continue to ask, the matter of the alien race was still very far from him, asking would not make much difference.

"Someone betrayed them, causing them to die on the battlefield..." Ye Chen recalled Shen Zhan's residual soul's hysterical, frenzied look just now, and his emotions were influenced.

"Elder Qingyi, release the suppression. I should be able to communicate with him further."

Luo Qingyi nodded, then dispelled the force suppressing Shen Zhan's residual soul.

Shen Zhan's residual soul had calmed down quite a bit.

Ye Chen said, "General Shen, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? You can tell me. If I can, I will help you accomplish them."

"I... my brothers... I want to see them..."

Ye Chen showed a difficult expression, and said, "General Shen, your brothers have also fallen, but their obsession hasn't dispersed..."

"Help me... bury them..."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Alright!"

"My True Martial Token... is still... If one day... I hope you can help me send the Token back to the True Martial Hall... Tell them, Shen Zhan, did not betray... The traitor is..."

Saying this, Shen Zhan's residual soul seemed to fall into great pain, and said, "The traitor is... The traitor is..."

Ye Chen knew that once Shen Zhan said it, it would become a great trouble for him.

But he still chose to listen.

If possible.

He wanted to help these unyielding human warriors!

"Elder... Among the seven Grand Elders, someone betrayed!"

Shen Zhan perhaps couldn't recall who it was exactly, or perhaps he wasn't sure who it was.

Ye Chen nodded, kept this matter in mind, and said, "General Shen, where is the True Martial Token?"

"Not far away... I'll take you to find it..."

"General Shen, wait here first, later we will go find it together."

Then.

Luo Qingyi once again cast a gentle force to seal Shen Zhan's residual soul and said, "What originally supported this wisp of residual soul's continued existence was pure obsession, with his restored consciousness, this wisp of residual soul is heavily impacted by various thoughts and cannot be maintained for long.

Moreover.

True Martial Hall is an immense force.

Even the strength of your teacher Yang Tianji, within the True Martial Hall, would not make much of a ripple. You must consider carefully, if you are drawn into the whirlpool of the True Martial Hall, your troubles will be even larger!"

Ye Chen grinned, looked at Luo Qingyi, and said, "Elder Qingyi, do you remember that you once told me I should be responsible for the people of the world?"

Luo Qingyi said, "You said, what is the world to you, have you now understood?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "I still think that the people of the world have little to do with me, I only care about those who are good to me and those whom I admire.

Though I know Shen Zhan only as a wisp of a residual soul, I greatly admire him, so, I want to help him."

Many times.

There isn't so much cause and effect to measure.

If you want to do this, then do it, follow your heart.

This is Ye Chen's attitude, this is his great principle!

Luo Qingyi nodded and said, "You have decided, then so be it."

......

Ye Chen's spiritual power withdrew from the Sword Tomb, and all his energy was focused on meditating to recover.

Before long.

A resounding bell rang.

The team competition time is over!

Immediately after.

All the strong figures from the Martial Arts Academy at the foot of the mountain flew up straight to the peak!

Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on a few from Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, then again on Ye Chen.

He Dong let out a cold snort, unleashing a powerful aura, blocking the probing power spreading toward Ye Chen.

"If anyone still wants to disregard the rules, Cangxing Martial Arts Academy will not hesitate to fight again!" He Dong's tone was very strong.

Xu Changqing's expression also showed a trace of coldness, saying: "Rules are not meant to be repeatedly provoked and broken. If there are any more instances, the consequences will be on you!"

The probing power spreading toward Ye Chen instantly all withdrew.

Immediately after.

Someone announced the results.

War Soul Mountain summit, Ye Chen first, Han Qianshan second, Sun Siming third, Fatty fourth, Ouyang Xiaoling fifth, Qu Xiao sixth.

From first to one hundredth place, points decreased from one hundred to one.

Cangxing Martial Arts Academy scored four hundred and eighty-six points!

Five people reaching the summit, an extra reward of five hundred points!

Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, with a total of nine hundred eighty-six points, won first place in the team competition!

Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy, Han Qianshan was the second to reach the summit, from seventh to tenth place were also people from Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy, with a total of nine hundred sixty-nine points, won second in the team competition!

Luofeng Martial Arts Academy took eleventh to fifteenth place, with a total of nine hundred forty points, won third in the team competition!

...…

Previously, eight academies from the top ten of the Great Zhou Dynasty Martial Arts Academy still remained in the top ten this time.

Feiyang Martial Arts Academy and Tongming Martial Arts Academy disappeared from the top ten!

Feiyang Martial Arts Academy was deprived of the qualification to participate in the Wind and Cloud Tournament, and the previous rankings were also canceled.

Tongming Martial Arts Academy was completely defeated by Ye Chen, due to this, a total of twenty-one martial arts academies all reached the summit of War Soul Mountain, so the ranking of Tongming Martial Arts Academy dropped from the original fifth to twenty-second!

The most uncomfortable were Zhou Chengqian and the leading powerhouse of Tongming Martial Arts Academy.

No one dared to probe Ye Chen anymore.

He Dong, in an extremely good mood, directly walked to Ye Chen and his people, laughing heartily: "You are all excellent!"

Actually, before coming.

He Dong did not have high expectations for first place, only felt there was a chance to compete for second.

But the result... first place!

This is also the first time Cangxing Martial Arts Academy won first place.

It is also the first time Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy lost first place!

Regarding the rankings of the martial arts academies, it doesn't seem to have any substantial meaning now, but when the Wind and Cloud Tournament ends, the rankings will transform into a large number of cultivation resources for the next three years, attracting a large number of top talents!

Why is Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy so strong?

In the lineup participating in the Wind and Cloud Tournament, four transcendent ones, one Tier Five Earth Seal Spirit Master, it's because Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy attracts many talents and has plentiful cultivation resources!

Among the crowd.

The few from Cangxing Martial Arts Academy who were the focus of attention, except Ye Chen, couldn't help but reveal a touch of pride on their faces!

They held their heads high! They felt proud!

Ye Chen's mood, however, was somewhat heavy because of the matter of the True Martial Hall's Black Armor Army Commander Shen Zhan. He looked at the dean of Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy, Xu Changqing, and stepped forward, saying: "Dean Xu, I have a modest request."

Even though Xu Changqing was a bit depressed because Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy lost first place in the team competition, he had no objection toward Ye Chen.

This is the Wind and Cloud Tournament, losing is losing.

Instead, Xu Changqing greatly admired Ye Chen, thus nodded and smiled: "Speak."

Ye Chen's expression was solemn, saying: "The corpses of this ancient battlefield fragment space were all humans before their deaths. After dying, their obsessions linger on, still wishing to fight on the battlefield, which is admirable. I feel that they should be allowed to rest in peace, and not be disturbed again."

As soon as these words were spoken.

Many people frowned slightly.

Sixth Prince Zhou Chengqian snorted coldly, saying: "This fragment space obtained by the Great Zhou Dynasty should be used to its fullest. What right do you have to comment on it!"

Although He Dong did not know why Ye Chen brought up such a notion, since Ye Chen said it, he naturally must support him, so he looked at Zhou Chengqian, his aura not weaker at all, saying: "This battlefield fragment space was jointly intercepted from the void by a group of strong figures from the Martial Arts Academy. Our Cangxing Martial Arts Academy also contributed, it has nothing to do with the Imperial Court!"

Xu Changqing also nodded, saying: "As for this fragment space matter, our martial arts academies will make the decision, what does His Highness think?"

Zhou Chengqian gritted his teeth, saying: "Whatever Dean Xu decides."

Xu Changqing looked at Ye Chen and said: "Although your intention is good, this battlefield fragment space holds considerable value to all the martial arts academies of the Great Zhou Dynasty..."

This meant there was room for negotiation.

Before he finished speaking, Ye Chen said straightforwardly: "First place in the individual competition has a generous reward. I get first place and don't want the reward, just have one request, which is to let the warriors here rest in peace."

"Humph, the individual competition hasn't even started and you already think you're first?" The leading powerhouse of Tongming Martial Arts Academy sneered coldly.

Ye Chen looked at the leading powerhouse of Tongming Martial Arts Academy, and a look of intense self-confidence appeared on his face.

"If I'm second, who can be first?!"
