The Great Dao Golden List, Me! The Supreme Martial God Exposed – Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Chi You Sword, New Rankings

“What? Gongzi Wu has actually been made a king?”

“This is… ”

The main hall immediately erupted in an uproar.

No one had expected that Ying Zheng would make Zhao Wu a king, and also grant him the privileges of entering the court without hastening, wearing swords and shoes in the hall, not needing to announce his name when being summoned, freely entering and exiting the imperial palace, and not attending court… These treatments were simply unbelievable.

He was truly second only to one, above ten thousand people.

Even Gongzi Fusu’s heart was filled with jealousy.

He still didn’t have a noble title, yet Zhao Wu had already been made a king.

“Your Majesty, this matter is probably inappropriate…”

Immediately, a minister stepped forward, wanting to dissuade him.

Ying Zheng directly interrupted, “I said that if the Martial God offered the Dragon Core, I would make him the King of Qin. Now that Wu’er has offered the Elixir of Immortality, it is only right that he be made a king. Do you think I would go back on my word?”

As he spoke, an aura of supreme majesty that seemed to swallow the six directions and sweep across the eight wildernesses emanated out. The minister who had just stepped forward prostrated himself on the ground, his heart trembling, and hurriedly said:

“This humble subject dares not!”

“This matter is settled, no further discussion is needed. Dismiss court!”

Having said that, Ying Zheng didn’t give others a chance to speak, and got up and walked straight towards the rear palace.

Leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

“Martial King?”

Zhao Wu was also a little surprised. He had only wanted a leisurely title as a prince.

He didn’t expect Zheng Ge to give him the title of Martial King.

Seeing Zheng Ge fleeing in a hurry, it was probably not just to avoid the ministers, but also to avoid him.

“But Martial King it is. It sounds quite domineering. Besides, my name is Zhao Wu, and my martial arts are divine. What’s wrong with being made a Martial King? Who dares to disobey?”

A surge of domineering spirit rose in Zhao Wu’s heart.

After being a salted fish for so long, it wouldn’t hurt to flip over occasionally.

Moreover, as a Martial King, he wouldn’t need to handle political affairs or attend court. At most, he would manage matters of the martial world.

And matters of the martial world were not troublesome as long as one had enough martial strength.

And what he lacked the least was martial strength.

He had experts under his command like clouds.

Suppressing the martial world would be as easy as turning his palm.

Compared to the imperial court, Zhao Wu preferred the martial world.

“Martial King, it seems not bad!”

While Zhao Wu was pondering, the surrounding Gongzi and ministers stepped forward to congratulate him.

“Congratulations, Big Brother, on your promotion to Martial King!”

“Congratulations, Martial King.”

“Congratulations, Martial King.”

◈◈◈

Zhao Wu nodded slightly, exchanged a few casual pleasantries, and then left Zhangtai Palace, returning to his residence.

And the matter of him beating Hu Hai in Zhangtai Palace, offering the Elixir of Immortality, and being made a Martial King swept across the world like a level twelve storm.

The Hundred Schools of Thought, the nobles of the Six States… all were shaken.

◈◈◈

Dong Commandery.

Little Sage Manor.

Xun Zi stood by the window of the Scripture Pavilion, his gaze distant, “One sword to freeze Shu He, to execute Zhao Gao, even if there is some exaggeration, it is not something a Heavenly Human can achieve. He must have already entered the Earthly Immortal Realm. No wonder he dares to call himself the Martial God.”

Xun Zi sighed in his heart. Even if the Martial God had not entered the Earthly Immortal Realm before, he would surely be able to after obtaining the Dragon Core.

As for the Elixir of Immortality that Ying Zheng obtained, in his view, it was probably just a Three Revolutions Fortune Pill, only increasing lifespan by a hundred years.

Behind him were the three leaders of the Confucian School, Fu Nian, Yan Lu, and Zhang Liang.

Each of the three had their own thoughts.

Zhang Liang held the news in his hand, his mind heavy, “Ying Zheng actually obtained the Elixir of Immortality? The Martial God would actually give him the Dragon Core? Even if Gongzi Wu is a disciple of the Martial God, it shouldn’t be like this!”

“Could it be that the Martial God has really become a god and doesn’t need the Dragon Core?”

“Or is the Elixir of Immortality that Ying Zheng spoke of just a Three Revolutions Fortune Pill? Was making Zhao Wu a king just to confuse the world? In reality, he didn’t even obtain the Dragon Core?”

Countless guesses surfaced in Zhang Liang’s mind.

Even with his resourcefulness, he couldn’t figure it out at this moment.

But he understood the terror of an emperor who was immortal.

And if Ying Zheng didn’t die, his desire to restore his kingdom would be almost impossible.

Even if Ying Zheng had only increased his lifespan by a hundred years, with the Great Dao Golden List…

Immortality was within reach.

He raised his head, looking at the Great Dao Golden List in the sky.

“Because Ying Zheng has become immortal, if I want to overthrow the tyrannical Qin, perhaps I can only rely on the rewards of the Great Dao Golden List…”

The Great Dao Golden List had no right or wrong and no position. If he found more famous swords, he could obtain more rewards.

Even if he could occupy the top spot on the subsequent lists, perhaps he could obtain the power to overthrow the tyrannical Qin.

“It’s a pity that the Mohist Xu Fuzi was killed, otherwise, he might have been able to forge a few more precious swords like the Water-Cold Sword.”

Zhang Liang sighed secretly, deciding in his heart to unite the anti-Qin forces of the world, collect the divine swords on the Divine Sword List to obtain rewards, and at the same time find master swordsmiths to forge even stronger divine swords, striving to obtain better rankings.

Secondly, unite all anti-Qin forces, striving to obtain more rankings on the lists that would appear later, and obtain more rewards.

Only in this way could they possibly overthrow the Great Qin.

As for waiting for Ying Zheng to die, that was already impossible.

Unless they assassinated him.

◈◈◈

Kuaiji.

The Xiang Clan.

Xiang Yu held the Overlord Spear, listening to the news reported by his subordinates, and sneered, “Martial King? Disciple of the Martial God? I’d like to see how much of the Martial God’s strength this Martial King has.”

“And that so-called Martial God, one sword to freeze Shu He, blowing his own horn to the sky, does he really think he’s a god!”

Xiang Liang, upon hearing this, hurriedly warned, “Yu’er, the Martial God’s one sword to freeze Shu He might be exaggerated, but the other party was able to easily kill Covering Sun and Zhao Gao. His strength is extraordinary, and he may have already reached the legendary Earthly Immortal Realm. We must not provoke him!”

They had not seen it with their own eyes. Even though the various spies were confident, they did not believe that someone could freeze Shu He with one sword.

That was not power that a human could possess.

But the Martial God’s terrifying strength was beyond doubt.

“I know.”

Xiang Yu casually brushed it off, but in his heart, he was naturally unconvinced.

He looked at the Great Dao Golden List in the sky, his eyes full of anticipation, “I wonder what the next list will be? If there was a Military General List, I would definitely be able to take first place!”

◈◈◈

Daze Mountain.

The Farming School.

“Gongzi Wu? Disciple of the Martial God? Martial King?”

Tian Hu listened to the news reported by his subordinates, holding the Tiger Soul Sword in one hand, his eyes ferocious, “I’ll test how much he’s worth, this Martial King, sooner or later!”

“Disciple of the Martial God…”

Mentioning the Martial God, Tian Hu couldn’t help but look at his severed left arm, his eyes filled with deep resentment and fear.

“Hall Master, I heard that the Mohist School has been destroyed…”

◈◈◈

Tian Zhong said cautiously from the side.

Whether it was the Martial God, Ying Zheng, or the Martial King, none of them were easy to provoke.

One careless move, and it could bring a devastating disaster to the Farming School.

“I’ll just use that pretty boy Gongzi Wu to test my sword. I don’t want his life. Surely the Martial God wouldn’t jump out and kill me, would he?”

“If that’s the case, why would Gongzi Wu be made a Martial King? He might as well go home and hide in his mother’s arms and suckle!”

Tian Hu sneered.

In reality, a powerful shadow of the Martial God had also formed in his heart.

Therefore, he did not dare to seek revenge from the Martial God.

But he was unwilling to let go of the grudge of his severed arm.

Bullying the Martial God’s disciple, the Martial King, was the only way he could get revenge.

He couldn’t beat the Martial God, but he couldn’t beat Zhao Wu?

Although he had heard that Zhao Wu had instantly killed Gao Jianli, in his view, the rumors were exaggerated. Besides, Gao Jianli was just a pretty boy in his eyes.

He could do it too.

Upon hearing this, Tian Zhong felt slightly relieved.

It was just a martial arts competition, not taking Zhao Wu’s life. That wouldn’t be too much of a problem.

◈◈◈

Time passed day by day.

The news of Gongzi Wu, the Great Qin Firstborn Son, the disciple of the Martial God, and his title as Martial King completely spread throughout the world.

Not only the Hundred Schools of Thought and the high-ranking nobles of the Six States, but even ordinary people had heard of the name of the Martial King.

Zhao Wu became famous in one fell swoop, known throughout the world.

While the world was discussing the name of the Martial King, Zhao Wu, as the instigator, had already moved into the majestic and imposing Martial King’s Residence.

Inside the Martial King’s Residence.

Zhao Wu lay on a grand tutor chair, lazily basking in the sun.

Yan Lingji and Mingzhu sat on either side, serving him, feeding him fine wine and fruit.

“Mmm…”

Suddenly, Zhao Wu turned over.

“Is this what Master meant by a salted fish turning over?”

Yan Lingji’s voice was melodious and clear, charming and moving, as her fair jade fingers held a grape to Zhao Wu’s mouth.

“That’s because Sister Yan’er has arrived!”

Mingzhu’s jade hand picked up the wine pot, pouring wine while smiling faintly.

As her voice fell, a slender and graceful figure appeared out of thin air in front of Zhao Wu.

Her pretty face was exquisite, with a seven-part resemblance to Jing Ni. Her pair of clear eyes were full of wisdom, and she held a precious sword with a domineering shape and a fierce aura.

“Tian Yan pays her respects to Your Highness, and congratulates Your Highness on your title as Martial King.”

Tian Yan knelt on one knee, holding the precious sword with both hands, and said, “I heard from Gongzi that a legendary divine sword, the Chi You Sword, was sealed in Loulan. Tian Yan has specially retrieved it to offer to Your Highness.”

“Yan’er is thoughtful!”

Zhao Wu sat up, reaching out to pull Tian Yan into his arms. He picked up the Chi You Sword with one hand and waved it casually, the sword aura was menacing.

Legend has it that the Chi You Sword was forged by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady using a fallen star, possessing boundless power.

However, this was not a mythical world.

The power of the Chi You Sword was limited.

It was about the same as Zhao Wu’s Netherworld Sword, and could be considered a good divine weapon.

“It’s good that Your Highness likes it.”

Tian Yan’s pretty face flushed with an alluring blush, and a bright smile bloomed on her face. It was not in vain that she had made a special trip to Loulan day and night.

Tian Yan was Jing Ni’s daughter, and she and Zhao Wu were childhood sweethearts, having grown up together since they were young.

Despite being only twenty years old, her cultivation had already reached the Heavenly Human Realm, comparable to old antiques like Guiguzi and Bei Mingzi.

Moreover, Tian Yan was extremely intelligent, her wisdom unparalleled, and she was deeply loved by Zhao Wu.

Zhao Wu’s secret intelligence network was managed by Tian Yan.

And Tian Yan did not disappoint, managing it in an orderly manner. Even the Tide Maiden Enchantress Mingzhu was convinced.

Moreover, they understood.

They had followed Zhao Wu halfway.

But Tian Yan had grown up with Zhao Wu since birth, and had received Zhao Wu’s full cultivation. That kind of affection and trust was unparalleled.

“The Chi You Sword is not bad, but it is useless to me. It just so happens that you are still missing a handy precious sword, so I’ll give it to you!”

Zhao Wu handed the Chi You Sword to Tian Yan.

“Thank you, Your Highness!”

Tian Yan did not act coy. She took the Chi You Sword, smiled sweetly, and leaned down to give Zhao Wu a heavy kiss on his forehead.

“Why are you being so polite with me? You went all the way to Loulan, it must have been tiring.”

Zhao Wu pinched the fair and tender cheek of the beauty, and asked with concern.

“Not tired,” Tian Yan said.

“Nonsense, you’ve even lost weight here. Later, this king will reward you properly.”

“Your Highness…”

Tian Yan lowered her head, her pretty face as pink as a rosy cloud, her beautiful eyes seeming as if they could drip water.

◈◈◈

Two days passed in a flash.

Tian Yan did not go out, and rested in the Martial King’s Residence.

While Zhao Wu rewarded her, he also did not forget to guide her in her cultivation.

She and Zhao Wu were childhood sweethearts, having grown up together since they were young. She had been deeply influenced by Zhao Wu’s wisdom.

In addition, Tian Yan was extremely intelligent, learning all kinds of knowledge at a rapid pace.

Zhao Wu was also not stingy, imparting everything he knew, and instilling all his knowledge into her.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

Suddenly, the Great Dao Golden List, hanging high in the sky, trembled. Auspicious colors and rosy clouds filled the sky, instantly alarming countless people.

The First Emperor Ying Zheng, the Hundred Schools of Thought, and the nobles of the Six States were overjoyed. They had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Today was the one-month deadline.

The Great Dao Golden List’s Divine Sword List would be refreshed, and the second round of rewards would be distributed.

Many of them had already snatched many famous swords, and were just waiting for the rewards this time.

At the same time.

What was most anticipated was the new list that was about to appear.

“I wonder what kind of list it will be?”

In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng, with his civil and military officials, looked at the Great Dao Golden List in the sky, his heart filled with both curiosity and infinite anticipation.
