Eternal Sword

Chapter 224 Lion and Tiger Arhat
"Won!"

"Brother Chen wins!"

Chang Sun Ming was so excited that he could hardly stand.

Murong Haitang quickly supported him, and couldn't help but smile, saying, "Yes, he won!"

Yuan Qingmo let out a long breath, and his heart finally settled down.

The people in the capital burst into cheers.

These days, Sang Han has been showing off his prowess in the arena in the capital. The warriors of Qian Kingdom have been killed or injured, and everyone is feeling angry.

Now, seeing Sang Han being killed on the spot by Chen Tang is truly inspiring and satisfying!
When all the officials and dignitaries in the Suzaku Tower saw this scene, they all had different expressions.

Some were surprised, some were delighted, and some looked calm.

"Ha ha!"

Yuan Qingshan laughed loudly and said repeatedly: "Good, good, good! What a great Chen Tang!"

"Master, you really have a keen eye. He really turned defeat into victory!"

Yuan Qingshan glanced sideways at the Xuantian Sect Leader beside him, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

Before, Master Xuantian once said sarcastically that maybe Chen Tang would be able to turn defeat into victory, after all, he was the candidate chosen by the emperor.

Yuan Qingshan couldn't refute.

It was not until this moment that he let out his anger and returned this sentence to him.

"National Master, this is what you call God's will."

Yuan Qingmu said with a smile on his face.

Facing the ridicule from Yuan Qingshan and his sister, Sect Leader Xuantian remained expressionless.

It was indeed beyond his expectations that Chen Tang could defeat Sang Han.

He made a mistake.

But, that’s okay.

So what if the emperor wins this round?

If the emperor wants to fight him and compete with the Xuantian Sect, he is still far from it!
He knew nothing about the strength of Xuantian Sect.

As for this Chen Tang, he is nothing to worry about.

"how is this possible?"

Everyone on the Barbarian Land delegation looked as pale as death, finding it hard to accept all this.

Did Sanghan die just like that?
He was beaten to death on the ring by a young warrior who looked less than 20 years old!
Sanghan is a talented warrior who is admired even by the Barbarian Lord.

The hope for the future of the barbarians.

This Chen Tang killed the future master of their barbarian tribe!

unacceptable!

Just as everyone was cheering, a figure suddenly jumped out from the barbarian delegation, leaped onto the stage, with a cold light flashing in his hand, and rushed towards Chen Tang with a knife in hand.

This is a woman from the barbarian delegation. She is in her twenties and has obviously cultivated internal energy.

Chen Tang had just experienced a fierce battle and was at his weakest.

when!
Just as the barbarian woman came in front of Chen Tang, an eight-sided long sword came from the side and blocked her blade.

Then the sword twisted, instantly knocking away the dagger in the barbarian woman's hand, and stabbed horizontally with the sword!
puff!
Just one sword pierced the woman's throat!
Yuan Qingmo was already standing in front of Chen Tang, blocking the knife for him, and with decisive action, he killed the barbarian woman!

"court death!"

Yuan Qingmo glanced at the corpse on the ground, then his eyes fell on the people of the Barbarian Land delegation, and asked coldly: "My friends from the Barbarian Tribe, what does this mean?"

"Shut up!"

"The barbarians can't afford to lose."

"You're still trying to launch a sneak attack. This is really embarrassing!"

There was a booing from the crowd.

Everyone in the barbarian delegation looked unhappy.

A middle-aged man's face flushed red as he argued loudly, "Who said we can't afford to lose? We just admitted defeat, but he didn't stop and kept killing us all. This man is too cruel!"

"Cruel?" Yuan Qingmo sneered, "How many warriors of my Qian country have been killed by Sanghan? Has he ever shown mercy? You are not qualified to say these two words!"

The members of the barbarian delegation knew they were in the wrong and didn't know how to refute.

The leading barbarian envoy sighed and said, "The woman just now was Sanghan's sister. She made a big mistake because she was anxious. Now that she is dead, let's leave it at that."

Things have come to this, no matter how unwilling and angry the barbarians are, it is irreversible.

"it is good!"

On the Suzaku Tower, Yuan Qingshan's voice was heard, attracting the attention of countless people.

Yuan Qingshan said loudly: "The outcome of this battle has been decided. Although there were some twists and turns in the Kirin Ranking this time, it can be considered a perfect ending. The top spot on the Kirin Ranking is still Chang Sun Ming, and the remaining vacancies will be filled by others."

If Sanghan had not appeared, Chang Sun Ming would indeed be the top of the Qilin list.

Moreover, Chang Sun Ming suffered heavy losses in this battle, so leaving the title of the top of the Kirin List to him could be considered a kind of compensation.

Of course, there was also a reason to show goodwill to the Changsun clan.

There is nothing wrong with Yuan Qingshan’s arrangement.

However, Chen Tang had just made a great contribution by killing Sang Han, which saved the reputation of the Qian Kingdom and solved the emperor's dilemma. What should he do?
Yuan Qingshan paused for a moment and continued, "Chen Tang has made great contributions to the country, so I grant him the title of Lion-Tiger Arhat! He is also given the title of Prince Taibao!"

There was a burst of cheers in the street.

"Lion-Tiger Arhat!"

"Lion-Tiger Arhat!"

Arhat, in Buddhism, is a symbol of suppressing evil spirits and expelling heretics, and is also a figure in Buddhist legends.

In the battle just now, Chen Tang had used the Arhat Fist to fight Sang Han many times, and in the end he used the Lion Roar Kung Fu combined with the Subduing Tiger Fist to kill him on the spot!

He truly deserves the title of Lion-Tiger Arhat.

Chen Tang doesn't care much about the Prince's Guardian or anything like that.

But Lion-Tiger Arhat sounds much better than those third-rate titles like Subduing Tiger Young Hero and Panda Swordsman.

Looking at the cheering crowd around him, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that all the hard work had paid off. He murmured, "Finally, I've made a name for myself..."

Yuan Qingmu looked at Chen Tang below, saw what he was thinking, and couldn't help laughing.

Now he can finally get rid of the title of Young Hero Subduing the Tiger.

"Lion-Tiger Arhat?"

Yuwen Mao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "This boy is less than 20 years old. The title of Luohan is too big. I'm afraid he is not worthy of it."

"What the Grand Commandant said is absolutely true."

"How about we talk to His Majesty?"

"That's right. The rank of the Crown Prince's Guardian is too high. It's impossible for a person of the first rank to be awarded like this."

Immediately, several officials jumped out to agree, with fawning looks on their faces.

"If he is not worthy of such a great contribution to the country, who else do you think can be worthy of it, Brother Yuwen?"

Murong Daoye asked back.

Yuwen Mao smiled and said, "I am worried that the name of Luohan is too big and he can't suppress it. Don't let it die because of a title."

Murong Daoye said: "Whether or not a person dies young has nothing to do with the title. After all, there is a will of heaven. Some people don't have any titles, so they die when they are told to die."

Yuwen Mao's face darkened, he turned and stared at Murong Daoye, and asked slowly: "Who are you talking about when you mention some people, Brother Murong?"

"Of course it's this Sanghan."

Murong Daoye asked with a smile: "Who did you think of, Brother Yuwen?"

Yuwen Mao snorted coldly.

Murong Daoye's words just now were obviously referring to Yuwen Dong who was killed by the Evil Emperor!
When all the officials saw the two most powerful men in the army speaking sharply to each other with a strong sense of tension, they were so scared that they dared not interrupt.

The few officials who had just jumped out also secretly retreated.

It was Prime Minister Cui Yuan who broke the atmosphere, changed the subject, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that this genius known as a barbarian would be beaten to death like this."

Murong Daoye said calmly: "Throughout the ages, there have been countless geniuses. Life and death, success and failure, the great waves wash away the sands. Only those who survive are called geniuses. Geniuses who die young will eventually be forgotten."

Everyone nodded secretly.
