Chapter 410: What is There to Fear
ight flashed. The poleaxe snapped in two, and the stones split apart, as if they were alive, all moving around Jiang Wang.And Jiang Wang, right in the midst of this, strode forward on his own, sword t...Since the start of the main competition, except for Yu Xiwen's battle against Chongxuan Zhundao, all six Supremes have remained silent spectators. They descended upon the River Terrace in their divine forms, both out of tradition and as a display of posture.
They watched the battle of prodigies from their lofty position. As mere spectators, they never interfered with the entire competition process.
Only at this moment did Emperor Jing speak up on his own.
Of the six Supremes present, Emperor Jing naturally had reason to be angry.
The State of Zhuang was a vassal state, nominally under his rule as well.
Jing Guo's own inner court prodigy died after the Ten Thousand Demons Gate, ostensibly a forfeit.
The first Tianjiao (prodigy) from the Inner Palace of Shengguo, was eliminated early due to Lin Zhengren's meticulous plan in Zhuangguo.
>
That is to say, in the entire Dao-affiliated kingdom's family, only Zhuang Guo remains in the main competition of the Nei Fu Chang.
Is Lin Zhengren admitting defeat by not coming to Taiwan anymore
Where is the face of the entire clan to be found
If that were all, Emperor Jing might not have spoken up.
He, being so noble and great, naturally has the capacity to encompass all under heaven. Matters at the level of the inner court are, in principle, of little consequence.
But what occasion is the confluence of the Yellow River
This is a gathering where the proud sons of nations clash. Traditionally, it is also a display of human might at the Guanhe Terrace.
From ancient times to the present, the human race's prodigies have displayed their wisdom, courage, and vision here, awe-inspiring the water tribes along the vast river.

Now, Lord Changhe Shui is present here.
>
What have you, Zhuang Guo, shown
Showing hesitation
Show cowardice
How to show that one can escape without fighting and lose without competing
The ridiculous trick of "turning against one's allies in the heat of battle" might fool most people present due to the real injuries, but how could it possibly escape the eyes of Lord Changhe Shui
Lin Zhengren didn't just lose face for himself!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At least these two still know how to cover up. Otherwise, Emperor Jing would have killed them on the spot.
>
He spoke calmly, but his voice conveyed his attitude.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Now, he gave Du Ruhui a choice.
To be precise, the one who had passed out on the battlefield was the one who surrendered. Therefore, this wasn't the final outcome, as it was Du Ruhui who conceded defeat.
A person who has fainted can regain consciousness, injuries can heal, and the words that Du Ruhui spoke on his behalf in forfeiting the match can be taken back.
Of course, Du Ruhui could understand that Emperor Jing was giving the state of Zhuang a chance, a chance to make amends.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
With his intelligence, he naturally knew he should seize this opportunity well. As a vassal state under the reign of Emperor Jing, what good could possibly come from defying him
But the premise that can be compensated--
He was the one who could control Lin Zhengren.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
It was his ability to cure Lin Zhengren after he was "cured" that allowed Lin Zhengren to bravely take the stage and perform a display of unwavering courage even in the face of backlash. He risked his life for Zhuang Guo, for the way of the Dao, and even exaggeratedly claimed that he fought back for the entire human race's pride on the Guanh River Platform, which had been lost by them with their own hands.
But can he do it
If it were before today, Du Ruhui could still say he had some confidence.
However, today Lin Zhengren resolutely committed suicide to avoid battle. It was under his "consolation" and "urging" that he made this decisive decision!
Now, it is Du Ruhui's time to make a choice.
He was silent for a moment.
He seemed to understand nothing. He lifted the unconscious Lin Zhengren, bowed his head, and hurried away from the viewing stand toward the outside of the Heavenly Stage.
This is his answer.
He told Emperor Jing that he was ashamed to face him.
As the prime minister of Zhuang State, he was unable to control the national prodigy who represented Zhuang State in battle.
In order not to lose even more face, he could only maintain the lie. Then...he really went down to recover from his injuries!
This is an accident!
As often was the case, Du Ruhui was like a diligent craftsman meticulously mending every part of the country to the best of his ability.
I thought this trip to the Yellow River Conference was just a formality, but there were unexpected surprises afterwards. It seems like I might be able to carry the honor...
In a blink of an eye, it has become an illusion. Still have to patch it up!
But not all leaks can be patched up. Not all mistakes can be made right. Duke Du Ruhui was a once-in-a-thousand-years talent in the Zhuangdi, but looking at the whole world, there were very limited things he could do.
Today, he reconnected with Lin Zhengren. In this situation, he was able to give up the match and do anything he could just to survive.
He didn't think he could offer any terms that would motivate Lin Zhengren to go all out.
If we were to wake Lin Zhengren up and then force him onto the stage, that would make for an even uglier spectacle...
For the Zhāng country, this was pulling down the last shred of decency – before Lin Zhengren “fainted,” he had used self-mutilation with blood as a pretense to cover it up.
He could only choose the lesser of two evils.
Even if we had managed to win the resources for the top sixteen, more demon clan quotas, and more Qi Opening Pills... from now on, let's not mention them.
He could only do so much.
Lin Zhengren must truly be injured from retaliation, he must truly have fainted, not been frightened into retreating. This way, one can also conveniently elevate Sheng Guotiao's status, saying that Jiang Limeng is too powerful, causing him to suffer grievous injuries that are hard to heal.
Otherwise...
In front of over a hundred countries’ representatives, Zhuang Guo's face was flushed with shame!
With Emperor Jing enraged, the only thing he could do now was to keep a low profile and minimize the presence of Zhuang Guo as much as possible, trying to downplay this whole incident.
Here's the translated content:

Defense is useless, and explanation is futile.
Punishment... can only be endured.
To call him Du Ruhui old and blind, for choosing the wrong person at the Yellow River Convention!
After Emperor Jing spoke, the entire court fell into a strange silence.
Many people are unaware of the inside story and don't understand why Emperor Jing would speak up, showing concern for a mere prodigy from a weak Dao-affiliated nation. Was it because the Dao lineage was completely wiped out in the Inner Court arena
Another group kept their eyes downcast, their minds elsewhere, filled with anxiety and afraid to think too much. After all, heaven's favor is unpredictable.
But intelligent people are by no means a minority.
The country's pride, Dengqi, wearing a heavy bronze mask, looked at Du Ruhui's back with a deep meaning in his eyes.
Of course he knew Lin Zhengren.
At the Sancheng Symposium, Lin Zhengren was truly impressive, overwhelming his fellow Daoist Academy students. He crushed Fu Baosong, battered Zhang Linfan, and even in a critical moment, pushed open the Heaven and Earth Gate, forcing Sun Xiaoman of Sanshan City to vomit blood.
Later, when Jiang Sangu went to Wángjiāng City and Lin's family drew their swords across the gate, he had already made other backup plans.

The first shot silenced the man completely.
At that time, he felt that this person was cautious enough and had a deep understanding of people, but he was too afraid to take risks and lacked courage. His future prospects were very limited.
It was when he was looking at the list of participants in the main event that he noticed this person was also on the viewing platform, and he was quite surprised.
The genius of the State of Qi knew exactly why he had chosen to challenge the rising star from the State of Zhuang.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But he really didn't expect that in this situation where "celestial talents from all nations compete, and everyone must strive for the first place," this Lin Zhengren could still perform a bloody forfeit.
Unlike others who, after seeing through the tricks, felt only contempt, he instead held them in higher regard.
Not everyone has that kind of determination.
But that's all there is to it.
As for Zhuang Guo, he didn't care at all. He wouldn't even bother with Lin Zhengren.
This text is empty.
What struck him most was...
That Ginger Third Brother, he actually already possessed such a terrifying aura of intimidation without anyone realizing it
Being able to force the opponent to resort to self-harm just to withdraw before a battle even begins!
"Deng Qi" glanced seemingly casually at the Tianjiao of Qi State, then turned his gaze back to his opponent, Yin Wenhua, the Tianjiao of Song State who had already stepped onto the stage.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Now, he has his own path to walk. At the confluence of the Yellow River, he is no longer just an observer.
Yu Xi's voice rang out at this time: "The Gengzi Martial Arts Platform, the winner is Jiang Wang of Qi!"
“Congratulations,” he said to Jiang Wang, his voice soft. “You are the most prodigious prodigy in history, having won at the fastest speed ever. This record is unparalleled, both before and after.”
As a true immortal, for me to utter these words here is already laced with resentment.
Of course not targeting Jiang Wang.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
In his eyes, this Lin Zhengren from Zhuang Guo was simply timid to a rare degree in the world.
Especially using this cowardice, it insulted him Yu Xi.
Could it be that I, a dignified true immortal, am not capable of protecting your life Do you need to resort to self-harm to avoid battle
Are you so afraid of this opponent named Jiang Wang, that you have no confidence in me
As a True Immortal from the Yu Jing Mountain lineage, he admired Lin Zhengren's performance in the previous battle against Jiang Li Meng.
Now it feels like having swallowed a fly, nauseating.
Facing Yu Xi's "praise", Jiang Wang calmly bowed, neither humble nor arrogant: "Thank you, True Lord, for the announcement."
With that, he stopped and said nothing more.
He stood alone on the martial arts stage, his hand resting on his long sword. His calm and confident demeanor, the ability to face any situation at any time, interpreted for everyone present what it truly meant to be a "prodigy."
On the other side of the stands, Jiang Limeng, who had come to watch the battle despite her body not fully recovered, gritted her teeth almost to the point of breaking them, feeling a deep sense of humiliation - I was actually defeated by this person
She was here today to observe Lin Zhengren carefully and find out the reasons for her defeat.
Facing failure bravely is the mindset of a strong person.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
But in Lin Zhengren's feigned withdrawal, her mental state completely collapsed.
Others may not know, but those who have experienced it firsthand know how well Lin Zhengren controls those ghosts.
If there were truly an issue of easy backlash, Jiang Limeng, even if she was careless, wouldn't have lost so miserably.
This Lin Zhengren, facing the first national pride, a master strategist who perseveres despite setbacks. Although she lost, she also admitted that this person is indeed remarkable.
Turning his head, he met the gaze of the dominant nation's genius. He didn't even dare to step onto the stage, preferring to harm himself to avoid battle!
You're too afraid to go up. You always honestly admit defeat before, just let me go up!
Here is the English translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
I would rather die on stage than off it!
Such cowardly and timid behavior is utterly contemptible...
But she just lost to such a person!
Then, what about her Jiang Li Meng
This is simply a lifelong shame!
It seemed that Du Ruhui, accompanied by Lin Zhengren, left calmly. But the actual shock caused had far from subsided.

Even the most beautiful woman in the audience from the State of Chu couldn't help but glance at Jiang Wang twice.

Even Douzhan Qi Shi, who could push through everything with his strength, and even Chong Xuan Zun, who shone brilliantly with the five prefectures and amazed the world with a single strike of his sword, had never encountered an opponent who surrendered before the battle!
Could it be that Jiang Wang, in the inner court hierarchy, actually possesses even greater authority than the previous two
Huang Sheli, already standing on the No. 1 martial arts platform, was full of pride and looked around triumphantly.
It's time for Mother to show her face!
Look at me, look at me! The night is deep, the beautiful woman is here, the handsome man of profound mystery is also here. Look at me well!
But on the left, Chongxuan was staring intently at Jiang Wang. On the right, Ye Lan'er was also staring intently at Jiang Wang.
How can this be!
Huang Sheli was furious and glared at Jiang Wang fiercely.
Though Jiang Wang didn't know the situation of this Jing Country Heavenly Prodigy, his heart trembled in fear.
This woman's killing intent is so strong...
He didn't even pay attention to his opponent, but instead released killing intent towards another version of himself on a different martial arts stage.
Although Liao Guo's Yelü Zhǐ might not be a match for her, what's the need to be so arrogant

Does this mean going all the way, meeting in the finals
Are you challenging me
Here's the translation of "" :

Thinking of this, Jiang Wang returned a affirmative look and nodded —
I, Jiang Qingyang, have nothing to fear! I'll see you in the finals!

When Huang Sheli received this look, he almost took a step and went to the training platform at Gengzi Hall. Facing his mother's soul-searching question, this kid not only didn't reflect, but actually dared to show off to his mother He even nodded proudly!
Looking so ordinary yet so confident!
At least she remembered that this was the main event of the Yellow River Tournament, and the lineup had already been set. It couldn't be changed.

Just wait and see.

She gritted her teeth and glared back fiercely at Yelü Zhǐ.

Yelü Zhīlún was about to explode with anger. The people of Jīn were too much! First, they acted like I didn't exist, glancing around as if I wasn't there. Now, they were threatening me face-to-face. I dared to come to the meeting by the Yellow River, so am I afraid of you
He glared back fiercely.
And not to mention how Yelu Zhi regarded death as home, all the other prodigies on the eight martial arts platforms were fully prepared for battle.
The once-famed Jiang Wang, the prodigy of Qi who could force his opponents to forfeit with a single smile on the platform for testing one's character, was now the most unbothered person there.
He was quite at ease. He glanced around and then fixed his gaze on Deng Qi and Yin Wenhua on the platform with the character "Bing" and assumed a posture of watching the battle.
The reason for choosing this battle to watch was twofold: first, the flag of Mu Guo (牧國) intrigued him because it was a Dengqi flag, and second, he was very interested in Yin Wenhua's Twenty-Four Solar Terms Sword.
The audience members were still a little worried that Jiang Wang wouldn't achieve his goal and felt a tinge of disappointment.
But Jiang Wang actually didn't have this problem at all.
As for Lin Zhengren suddenly suffering from the "blood ghost backlash," he was taken aback.
He had already made two plans, trying to kill the person on stage. Unexpectedly, the other party didn't even go on stage.
>
But amidst the unexpected, there was no bitterness, but rather...a touch of amusement.
I think I took things a little too seriously.
Does this person deserve it
He originally placed great importance on this opponent, Lin Zhengren. To completely eliminate him, he even went so far as to ask Cao Jie to switch the matchup list, wanting to try and assassinate him under the very nose of Zhenjun Yu Xi.
But just now Lin Zhengren committed suicide and fainted. He stood alone on the martial arts stage at that moment.
He asked himself, what am I here at the riverside for
Slaying Lin Zhengren Humiliating Zhuang Jun and Zhuang Chen
No.
I'm here to fight for the title of number one in the world!
The content you provided is "
". Is there anything else I can help you with
On this unparalleled path within the imperial court, Lin Zhengren didn't even have the standing to remain upright.
This is a very simple task.
Because he had already lain down on his own.
In such a gathering of peerless talents, under the watchful eyes of the world, he didn't even have the courage to make a move.
They don't even dare to probe!
Even if such a person has deep scheming, can they truly be considered an opponent
The journey is long and arduous, and it's not always possible to be fully prepared to hit the road!
Without bravery, how can one make progress
Today, Jiang Wang strides down this path of light, marching toward the pinnacle of the world. Regardless of the outcome, success or failure, he has already ascended to a higher plane. As for Lin Zhengren, he remains forever by the roadside.
He will never stop to wait.
