Chapter 421: The Emperor Artifact Appears, Chen Changsheng: Adhere to the Rules of the Game
Most of the battles had already concluded, and everyone’s attention was focused on the fight between Ma Guang and Xu Hu.
On this battlefield, Xu Hu fought more and more fiercely, while Ma Guang became increasingly restrained.
Feeling the gazes of the crowd, Ma Guang’s mentality began to change.
He could not tolerate losing to a newcomer.
He had been at Mountain River Academy longer than him, and his foundation was more perfect.
Everyone else had defeated their opponents; if he alone were defeated, it would be an intolerable humiliation.
Thinking this, Ma Guang’s eyes started to turn red.
Seeing this, Kong Xuan frowned.
Just as he was about to speak up and stop the fight, a voice sounded from behind him.
“If you’re going to play, then you have to follow the rules of the game.”
“There’s no reason for you to relentlessly pursue when you have the upper hand, and then want to cheat just because you’ve fallen behind a little.”
“Isn’t that unfair?”
Hearing this voice, cold sweat instantly poured down Kong Xuan’s forehead.
Because this voice belonged to Chen Changsheng.
Turning around, he saw that Chen Changsheng and Ye Yongxian had appeared behind him.
Chen Changsheng’s hand also rested on his shoulder.
“Huh~”
Exhaling lightly to calm his agitated mood, Kong Xuan spoke.
“When did you appear behind me?”
“I appeared when you were distracted.”
Chen Changsheng looked at the battlefield below and slowly said,
“I must say, you put a lot of thought into this battle against me.”
“You carefully selected every helper you brought.”
“The three true disciples were dealing with us who can fight well, while others were strategically deployed.”
“To fit your plan, I ended the battle with the three true disciples in a draw.”
“After all, I, Chen Changsheng, value my face. Losing too badly is unseemly.”
“Except for the battles with the true disciples, I didn’t interfere in any other fights.”
“Xu Hu and Ma Guang’s battle, the victor will surely be Ma Guang.”
“Because Xu Hu was injured earlier and has been here for too short a time, so he cannot possibly be Ma Guang, an old inner disciple.”
“Ma Guang is like a stubborn donkey, hasty and impatient.”
“Ma Guang will certainly use excessive means, and the academy will intervene.”
“As soon as the academy intervenes, Xu Hu will win.”
“The current victory is all Xu Hu’s bl**d and sweat.”
“Now you’re waking Ma Guang up, is this cheating?”
After hearing this, Kong Xuan smiled, “As expected of Master Shiquan, everything is under your control.”
“Why didn’t you stop this earlier?”
“Why should I have stopped it?”
“A temporary success or failure doesn’t mean much; only those who laugh last are the real winners.”
“Besides, you defeated them, not me.”
“Even against these mediocre talents, you struggle; you’re not qualified to challenge me.”
Just as he was speaking, Ma Guang roared, and then summoned a small bronze tripod.
“Buzz!”
With the appearance of the bronze tripod, an invisible pressure swept over everyone.
Facing this terrifying pressure, Xu Hu’s clone instantly vanished, and he himself remained frozen in place.
“I’ll k*ll you!”
Ma Guang controlled the bronze tripod to attack Xu Hu.
Just as the bronze tripod was about to hit Xu Hu’s head, the entire world suddenly froze.

Vice Dean Mo Wen of Mountain River Academy blocked in front of Xu Hu.
The unstoppable Emperor Artifact could not advance anymore.
“Ding!”
The divine weapon had a spirit. Mo Wen’s obstruction made the Emperor Artifact start to retaliate on its own.
“Subdue!”
A golden word fell onto the bronze tripod.
As the word fell, the bronze tripod immediately ceased moving, and a scroll appeared above Mo Wen’s head.
The stronger imperial might on it proved that this was a more powerful “Emperor Artifact”.
“Swoosh!”
Having subdued the Emperor Artifact, Ma Guang was quickly locked down by Mo Wen’s great technique.
“Ma Guang maliciously attacked fellow students, and will be placed on probation once. The Emperor Artifact will be temporarily confiscated.”
“Others who caused chaos in the school order, each will receive a major demerit and ten days of solitary confinement!”
“For inner disciples, the solitary confinement period will be doubled, and for true disciples, tripled!”
After saying this, Mo Wen looked at Chen Changsheng and others.
Under the pressure of the Emperor Artifact, all the students collapsed, except for Chen Changsheng and Kong Xuan and a few others.
Kong Xuan had a colorful peacock feather floating above his head, and Chen Changsheng had a simple long sword floating above his.
This long sword belonged to Ye Yongxian.
It was precisely this sword that shielded Chen Changsheng and others from the pressure.
“Why are you looking at me? They all fought, but I didn’t.”
“You wouldn’t think of punishing me too, would you?”
Hearing this, Mo Wen narrowed his eyes.
“This time I’ll let you off, but if there’s a next time, all involved will be punished.”
After saying this, Mo Wen grabbed Ma Guang and disappeared.
Using the Emperor Artifact to deal a fatal blow to fellow students within the academy has too significant an impact.
Regarding Ma Guang, Mo Wen naturally had to handle it personally.
…
After Mo Wen left, Chen Changsheng clapped his hands and said to the onlookers around him.
“That’s enough! That’s enough!”
“The performance has ended, everyone should go back to class now.”
Dispersing the crowd, Chen Changsheng then said to Kong Xuan.
“You should leave too. You’re about to be confined. Make good use of the remaining time to discuss things properly.”
Hearing this, Kong Xuan hesitated, and with Huafeng heavily injured, they were about to leave.
“Little Peacock, you need to stay.”
“These aren’t suggestions, but notifications.”
Looking at the indifferent Chen Changsheng and the silent Ye Yongxian, Kong Xuan placed Huafeng aside and said indifferently, “This time you were lucky, next time you won’t be so fortunate.”
“This may not be the case, I usually have very good luck.”
“Humph!”
Snorting coldly, Kong Xuan took Yang Jian and others away.
After all unrelated people had disappeared, Hu Potatoes came out from behind a large tree and then woke up the heavily injured Huafeng and others.
Soon, covered in bl**d, everyone stood before Chen Changsheng.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Chen Changsheng grinned and said, “Speak, why aren’t you talking?”
“Don’t you usually talk a lot?”
Hearing this, Huafeng bit her lip and spoke, “I’m sorry, I let you down…”
“Sigh!”
Huafeng hadn’t finished speaking when she was interrupted by Chen Changsheng raising his hand.
“You haven’t let me down. Today’s battle, you all did well, and everyone tried their best.”
“But it seems you still lost. So, besides apologizing, do you have anything else to say?”
