Sorry, I was the only one who advanced.

This simple sentence was like a slap to the faces of everyone in the TianChu Martial Academy. It even had the feeling of pressing the dignity of the TianChu Martial Academy to the ground!

There was no one who didn't know of He Yu's plan. He had originally wanted to borrow the hands of over three hundred participants to eliminate Xia Xinghe.

However, Xia Xinghe went against the will of the heavens, instantly eliminating more than 300 students by himself. In the end, the only one who advanced to the second stage of the examination was Xia Xinghe himself, which gave He Yu and the TianChu Martial Academy double the face slapping card!

The corners of Xia Xingchen's mouth curled up, ignoring He Yu and the others who had extremely ugly expressions. Instead, he surveyed his surroundings before smiling and asking, "You guys, do you still want to continue challenging me?"

"I don't dare!"

"I admit defeat!"

"I admit defeat."

"Thank you for your leniency, Young Master Xia."

The contestants who were wailing immediately stopped. They started begging Xia Xinghe, as if they were afraid that Xia Xinghe would change his mind and rush down to kill them.

Immediately afterwards, the competitors who had been lying on the ground wailing, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, quickly escaped towards the exit of the arena, whether they were walking with their legs, hands, or limbs.

In just a few breaths of time, all of those participants that seemed to be unable to move because of their serious injuries had fled the battle arena area.

Xia Xinghe shrugged and laughed in his heart, "Have mercy? If it wasn't for my current cultivation being too weak and unable to bring Heaven Man Unity to its maximum, would you all still be able to leave this place alive? "

Shaking his head in self-mockery, Xia Xinghe then turned his gaze back to the people from the TianChu Martial Academy as he mockingly said: "Everyone has left. Can I advance to the second stage of the examination now?"

Silence.

A deathly silence.

After a long while, the purplish-faced He Yu forcefully spat out a sentence, "The first stage of the exam is over. The last to advance is Xia Xingchen!"

He Yu's voice spread throughout the central Martial Arts Practice Grounds, but at this moment, the surrounding several hundred thousand people in the arena began to cause a faint disturbance. In just a few breaths of time, the weak disturbance transformed into an earth-shaking discussion.

"The central training field hasn't suffered that much damage since it was built, right?"

"An enormous crack has appeared on the platform. How powerful is Xia Xingchen's attack exactly?"

"Crack?" That's not right! If you look closely, the six cracks on the platform seem to be one word! "

"Hearing you say that, it really does sound like a single word."

"It seems to be a 'Rest' character?"

"What do you mean?"

Hundreds of thousands of people were all staring at the six cracks created by Xia Xinghe as they discussed amongst themselves.

Are there any words on the battle stage?

There was indeed a word, and it was something Xia Xinghe had purposely carved out from the state of 'one with the world'!

Xiu, a total of six strokes. This was also the reason why Xia Xingchen had to use the 'one with the world' state earlier. Otherwise, Xia Xinghe would have been able to sweep all three hundred Heaven Palace Mirror participants off the stage in four moves at most!

"Everyone!" Xia Xinghe raised his hand and shouted.

In an instant, all the discussions in the central training field stopped. Everyone stared at Xia Xinghe, especially the people from the TianChu Martial Academy. Their expressions were terrifyingly gloomy, because they knew that Xia Xinghe's next words or actions would be detrimental to the TianChu Martial Academy!

"The word read 'Hugh', 'Hugh', 'Hugh', 'Hugh'." After she finished this sentence, Xia Xinghe's eyes shot towards Fang Ruyu, who was standing below the stage like lightning, and said with a mocking smile: "Fang Ruyu, I said that I would divorce you in front of everyone in the city. Now, I will formally present this word to you!"

Hiss!

The hundreds of thousands of people present all drew in a breath of cold air!

A foolish son-in-law, repudiating his wife in public?

Although Xia Xinghe had used his strength to prove that he was no longer that foolish and superb son-in-law from before, Fang Ruyu was no longer the same Fang Ruyu!

Celestial mirror level 2, Fang Ruyu who possessed the talent to become a Star rank. She was a genius that even the TianChu Martial Academy attached great importance to. Xia Xinghe's halo was still far from Fang Ruyu's!

But now, Xia Xinghe had directly given up his wife in public, especially since he was a future prodigy. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of citizens, even the people of the TianChu Martial Academy would not have thought of such a thing!

"You're courting death!" The deathly silence, which had just been fermented, was broken by Fang Ruyu's cold voice that was filled with killing intent.

Fang Ruyu stood up all of a sudden, her beautiful eyes filled with the light of extreme hatred. The extreme anger and shame caused Fang Ruyu's entire body to tremble continuously, and the pure gold light that represented a middle tier Star rank talent was faintly discernible on top of Fang Ruyu's head.

The genius Fang Ruyu, who was enveloped by countless halos of light, had been publicly abandoned by the ant in her eyes. Fang Ruyu could not stand such humiliation. If she wanted to divorce him, it would be Fang Ruyu's turn, how could Xia Xinghe divorce her?

In fact, during the marriage between Fang Ruyu and Xia Xingchen, most of it was treated as a joke, because everyone knew that the identities of the two of them were not even equal. In their subconscious, everyone had already treated Xia Xinghe as someone who had been abandoned, but they hadn't expected that during the entrance exams of the TianChu Martial Academy, Xia Xinghe, with especially one person, would eliminate more than 300 people.

"Ruoyu." He Yu walked up to the incomparably embarrassed and angry Fang Ruyu. She gently patted Fang Ruyu's shoulders and gently advised, "Don't worry, I will make him suffer the most painful torture in this world first. After that, the final strike to end his life will be executed by you."

"Alright!" Fang Ruyu stared at He Yu, who had a resolute look in her eyes, and let out a heavy breath. Her extremely angry and embarrassed emotions gradually stabilized, and she suppressed the middle tier Star rank talent that she was about to release.

With that, Fang Ruyu returned to her seat, her eyes staring coldly at Xia Xinghe.

If looks could kill, Fang Ruyu would have already killed Xia Xinghe tens of thousands of times.

"Now, let's begin the second stage of the entrance examination for TianChu Martial Academy." After comforting Fang Ruyu, He Yu turned around again, and in that instant, a sinister killing intent flashed in his eyes. Even his tone had turned sinister and terrifying, "The second stage is a one on one arena battle, and the two people standing on the stage will have their victories evaluated after the victories are decided. If the victor meets the requirements of our TianChu Martial Academy, then he will be promoted to the next round, otherwise, he will have to continue to stay on the stage and accept the challenges of the other participants, until he voluntarily admits defeat or until he dies!"

When He Yu's words came out, hundreds of thousands of people exclaimed once again.

"Also, if the TianChu Martial Academy denies the victor, then the victor will have to continue accepting the challenge. Can I interpret this as you taking turns to fight?"

"This is a war of attrition. You all think about it, if the first one to fight was Xia Xinghe, even if he won, the TianChu Martial Academy would never give him the chance to advance in cultivation. We will let him continue fighting until all his opponents are eliminated!"
