20 Chapter 20, Assessment Continues
Translator: 549690339
In the central square.

The sun was shining brightly.

A group of young boys and girls looked at each other, bewildered.

Everything changed too quickly and caught them off guard.

First, those who lied about their age to participate in the test were each beaten with twenty military sticks and driven out of the square.

Then, ten test-takers were accused of being Evil Cult spies and forcefully killed.

Now, the two Martial Academy disciples in charge of the assessment had turned into Sky Patrol Guards, forcing the two highest-ranking officials of Cloud Water County to prove their innocence.

All these events undoubtedly shattered their previous understanding.

“Do we really have to go through with this?”

Han Zhuang sighed softly and remained still.

If the opponents were not Sky Patrol Guards, he could find various reasons to avoid being tested by the Reach Profound Crystal.

However, once the Sky Patrol Token had appeared, his way of retreat was completely blocked.

Until now, Han Zhuang still did not know why the Reach Profound Crystal appeared suddenly, and moreover, how it could detect whether someone was from the Evil Cult.

The unusual atmosphere around Han Zhuang immediately made the whole scene tense.

The heavily-armed guards with heavy crossbows looked serious, but no one dared to move.

They were well aware that although the County Warden was their highest-ranking officer, with the order of the Sky Patrol Guard, they would have no choice but to execute their own supervisor if necessary.

This was the deterrence of the Sky Patrol Office and the power of the Sky Patrol Guard.

Moreover, according to the current situation, their County Warden might indeed be a member of the Evil Cult.

“Commander Han, you?” Jiang Hongji looked at Han Zhuang, seemingly trying to confirm something.

He took a step forward.

Han Zhuang looked at Jiang Hongji, who was full of disbelief, and spoke indifferently, “Someone like you, who feeds on your position without any effort, can always stay above me. This just shows the court’s injustice. Since the court is unfair, how can I not seek another way out?”

With his words, Han Zhuang erupted with an intense aura-straining air, his clothes dancing, his hair fluttering, and the blue stone under his feet trembling and shattering in layers.

Confronted with such a powerful aura, the boys and girls participating in the assessment retreated one after another, making the scene chaotic.

Lu Yun quietly retreated, moving closer to the heavily armored city guards.

In his view, a fierce battle might break out soon, and the closer he was to Lin Chen and the others, the more dangerous it would be.

True Qi Realm martial artists were too unpredictable for him, let alone this Han Zhuang, who seemed to be even more powerful than True Qi Realm ones.

“What? Transforming Origin Realm!” Seeing the red gas surrounding Han Zhuang, Jiang Hongji’s heart sank. That was True Origin, the unique symbol of a Transforming Origin Realm martial artist.

Although shocked, he remained calm on the surface, and bowed to Lin Chen, saying, “Two sirs, Han Zhuang has reached the Transforming Origin Realm. I’m afraid we need to work together to resist him.”

Hearing this,

Lin Chen’s mouth curled into a subtle smile, “There is no need for the three of us to join forces. Lord Jiang and Junior Brother Meng will guard me, preventing any escape or harm to others.”

After saying this,

The smile on his face disappeared, and cold frost covered it. His white True Origin swirled around him as he shouted with a thundering voice, “Han Zhuang, you colluded with the Evil Cult and betrayed the court! Do you plead guilty?!”

The loud voice echoed not only among the youngsters and guards but also reached the ears of martial artists watching from outside the square.

Among them, some martial artists quietly retreated into the crowd, unnoticed by others.

“You are also a Transforming Origin Realm martial artist?!”

Han Zhuang’s face turned ugly. “As expected of the Heavenly Pride from the Star Palace of the Martial Academy! With your strength, you are indeed qualified to be a Second-level Sky Patrol Guard in the Sky Patrol Office!”

“As long as I kill you and eradicate the Evil Cult forces in Cloud Water County, I will be a Second-level Sky Patrol Guard.”

As his words fell, the blade emerged!

The cold aura seemed to form ice flowers in the air, and the square, under the scorching sun, became cold.

Seeing this vicious blade, Han Zhuang was horrified.

After joining the White Lotus Sect, he had received many resources, converted his True Qi into True Origin, and advanced to the Transforming Origin Realm. He was almost invincible in Cloud Water County.

As for the two genius disciples from the Martial Academy’s Star Palace, he had not taken them seriously.

After his identity had been exposed, he had still been at ease.

Only after Lin Chen revealed his Transforming Origin Realm cultivation did he take it seriously.

But unexpectedly, after Lin Chen’s complete eruption, his strength turned out to be so strong, strong enough to make him tremble with fear, so strong that he lost his composure and couldn’t even avoid it in time.

Bang –

A scream, accompanied by splattering blood, a severed arm fell heavily onto the bluestone ground.

Han Zhuang retreated abruptly.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s sudden explosive strike had severed one of his arms, and the remaining cold True Origin was invading the wound, causing him so much pain that his face turned pale.

“Why is your strength so great while we’re both in the Transforming Origin Realm?”

As Han Zhuang spoke, he gritted his teeth.

Both were in the Transforming Origin Realm, but the gap between the two was not ordinary, so large that he could not resist!

Lin Chen shook the Blade gently. Blood clotted on the Blade, turning into clumps and falling to the ground along with the trembling Blade.

“Relying on external force to break through, how can you know how strong the True Origin is transformed after the True Qi is refined to the extreme? However, it doesn’t matter, you can experience its power and horror in detail!”

The moment the words fell, the long Blade slashed out again.

Compared with the previous slash, this one also had a chilling aura, almost freezing the surrounding hot air, the long Blade falling with a brilliant white light and a sound of breaking through the air.

Han Zhuang’s face showed a strange smile.

“Although you’re very strong, if I want to leave, you can’t stop me!”

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, as the long Blade fell down, slicing through empty space and lifting the bluestone on the ground.

At the same time.

A figure appeared like a rainbow shooting through the sky, like a green dragon emerging from the sea, causing a stormy wind.

Puff!

The sound of the Blade piercing through flesh rang out, followed by a scream, and Han Zhuang’s body crashed to the ground.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”

As the True Qi swayed, the blood on the Blade spilled on the ground, and Meng Hongfei looked down at the corpse on the ground with a hint of indifference.

At this point, Jiang Hongji’s face was filled with disbelief.

“How is it possible to kill a Transforming Origin Realm opponent by crossing realms with True Qi Realm?”

Although Han Zhuang had broken through with external force and had an arm severed, he was still a Transforming Origin Realm expert, but he was killed by Meng Hongfei, who was only in the True Qi Realm.

Meng Hongfei’s strength was beyond Jiang Hongji’s expectation.

Even though he could hardly believe it, the scene just now had clearly told him that Meng Hongfei had killed Han Zhuang, who was at the Transforming Origin Realm, with his True Qi Realm strength.

This Meng Hongfei was indeed a Martial Academy Heavenly Pride who advanced to the Star Palace within three years of entry!

Realizing this, the previous displeasure in Jiang Hongji’s heart instantly dissipated.

“Well, I was going to interrogate him about whether he still has accomplices, but it didn’t work out…” Lin Chen walked over and looked helplessly at Meng Hongfei, who was expressionless.

If he wanted to kill Han Zhuang with his strength, the first Blade strike would not have just severed an arm.

His plan was to use the second Blade to render Han Zhuang completely incapacitated and then interrogate him about his accomplices and the evil cult power he belonged to.

Unexpectedly, Han Zhuang still had the power to evade and was finally killed by Meng Hongfei in one fell swoop.

Things turned out differently than expected, but that did not matter.

Their mission this time was to verify whether Cloud Water County’s government had been infiltrated by the evil cult.

Now, having verified and executed the mastermind, they could follow the trail and find any other lurking evil cult spies.

At this point, their mission from the Sky Patrol Office is almost done, and the finishing touch will be left for the County Government Office of Cloud Water County to deal with.

Next, they need to continue completing the tasks of the Martial Academy.

With this in mind, Lin Chen said to Lord Jiang, “Lord Jiang, let’s sit down and talk.”

“Okay.”

So, Lin Chen and Jiang Hongji sat down to discuss the matter, one after another.

Meng Hongfei, on the other hand, sheathed his Blade, and looked at the shocked young boys and girls, coldly saying, “The little interlude just now is over, we will continue with the next assessment.”

“Yes!”

Lu Yun and the others quickly recovered from their shock and reassembled in the shortest possible time.

At this moment, their eyes were filled with admiration and envy as they looked at Meng Hongfei.

His elder brother, who was not much older than them, left a deep impression in their minds as he killed a Transforming Origin Realm opponent by crossing realms with his True Qi Realm.
