Chapter 308: 8.35 First Blue Star – Death by the Laws of the Empire.
The scene of Young Master Sidra’s Tyranny had been witnessed by everyone, not only those who were watching in the monitoring cabins of their battleship but also those audiences who were watching the live stream on Star Network. This competition is, after all, watched by everyone in the Empire as usual whenever some students of the First Military Academy go to their assessments. It was just this time the elders of the Federation made it in a competition to garner more youngsters to join their side.
Everything was streamed without editing and live. So the scenes from the first day to now were seen by everyone on Star Network. They’ve also enjoyed that recording when Solaris Vega and Feng Jing enjoyed bombing a nest of an ant-type zerg. They also laughed their asses out when Xue Ran grabbed the two troublemakers who even had the nerve to have a conversation while hanging like a sack on their senior’s shoulder.
Now seeing Lin Tian beat up Young Master Sidra to look like a swollen balloon face can be seen all over the Star Network.
‘What the heck is this little master from Sidra Clan doing?! Bullying the weak!’
‘What a disgusting thing to do? Where had his pride as a noble gone!?’
‘Sidra’ s descendant is trashy with new generations!’
‘Hey! Did anyone just hear him say, prince?’
‘Fuck! Is this something royal blood would do? What would happen to us commoners if the ones in lead happen to become this evil?’
‘Lin Clan is so righteous! Young Master Lin! Go. go. GO BEAT HIM UP MORE!!!’
The comments from the Star Network were all siding with Lin Tian beating up the young master from the Sidra Clan. Meanwhile, the said elders of this clan were now wearing ugly expressions on their faces. Thanks to this foolish descendant of theirs, their whole family is being pulled down in the muddy waters. They know that Young Master Sidra must be following someone’s orders.
Seeing how much he was trying not to say anything. It is clearly an order from someone from the royal family and there is only one foolish prince who wouldn’t care much about his reputation because he only possesses half of the royal bloodline, Prince Naja.
The agonizing sound of Young Master Sidra’s screams resounds in the area for quite a long time. As expected to someone spineless, he gives up saving the face for his master for beating up at such a point that he ends up looking like a dumpling head.
“AAAAAAAHHHHH!! STOP. PLEASE STOP! I’LL SAY IT. I’LL TALK!” exclaimed Young Master Sidra while covering his face with his arms.
But the moment this young master said this, those who were silently watching hidden from within the forest had shown themselves. A haughty and arrogant little prince like Navi Naja appeared with his cousin and their team.
Prince Rigel was silent all the way but his eyes couldn’t help but narrow when it wandered towards the beaten Young Master Sidra.
Navi Naja on the other hand acted like he wasn’t the one who ordered Young Master Sidra to block all commoners from entering the Middle Region. He commanded this because he knew that Feng Jing’s teammates were mostly commoners, he wanted to make things hard for this Imperial Uncle of theirs.
Prince Naja says, “What are you doing, Young Master Lin?” His tone when he mentioned Lin Tian’s title was sarcastic and mocking.
Making those from Lin Tian’s Team angry only to be held back by Young Lady Halley’s glance. They know who Prince Naja is. Not only Prince Rigel is around, aside from these two no one else possessed higher authority than them both. Lin Tian and others could only swallow their anger.
Lin Tian stood up properly and clasped his hands before lowering his head.
“Greetings to the First Prince and Second Prince,” said Lin Tian. The rest had fallen on one knee to greet the royal blood.
Prince Naja has always loved seeing people kneel under his presence. He feels proud watching someone lower themselves to him. It is a complex that makes him greater than anyone else. It took a while before Prince Naja allowed the rest to raise their heads. Once they did, Lin Tian was with eyes full of annoyance landing onto himself owned by Prince Naja.
Prince Naja spoke, “What are you doing, Lin Tian? Did you just beat up my servant to look like that!?”
“Answering to the prince but this all the fault of Young Master Sidra. He was bullying the weak and this one had to step in for it,” explained Lin Tian.
“Oh~ you mean his plundering of the other groups’ resources? That is not against the rules? One is allowed to plundered someone’s group. The weak had to be sacrificed for the strong,” said Prince Naja but he still doesn’t say anything about him ordering the other person from doing such a thing.
Lin Tian suddenly grins and says, “Prince Naja is right. The weak one can only be beaten up by the strong. That’s why Young Master Sidra was beaten up by Laozi. Because I am stronger than he is. So, I wonder why the Prince is still asking why Lin Tian struck down this trash?”
Prince Naja felt like his face was slapped. In accordance with Lin Tian’s words, he is being unreasonable for getting his servant beat up which is not against the rules of the competition as he says. A red blush appeared on Navi Naja’s face. This is clearly because of embarrassment and anger. He even pointed his first at the grinding Lin Tian while glaring at him.
Prince Naja said, “YOU?! How dare you speak like that towards this prince!? I cannot believe this!” Then he moves his gaze from that hateful man to his elder cousin brother, Prince Rigel. His angered expression turned delicate as if he was being bullied by Lin Tian. “Big brother~ that man he… he… he is bullying me!”
Everyone watched as Prince Rigel sighed and patted his spoiled little brother’s head to calm him down.
“Naja, you should calm down. Young Master Lin didn’t say anything wrong and you as well didn’t say wrong things either. Either way, this doesn’t change the fact that Young Master Lin had been insolent by questioning a royal descendant.” said Prince Rigel, then he motioned to his people to surround Lin Tian.
The grin on Lin Tian’s face faded and he assumed a fighting stance in case these men attacked him. Though they aren’t on the same level as Lin Tian who is a SS Sentinel unlike Young Master Sidra’s goons, these guys were trained to serve the royal descendants.
Halley Ascella couldn’t be helped but stood up for her lover with how the situation is. But showing herself now means revealing her identity as someone from the neighboring Empire. She will be put in great danger. Though at this moment this is the only way she thought that would be able to prevent Lin Tian from being beaten up by the people of Prince Naja and Prince Rigel.
Prince Rigel gestured with his hand and said, “Do it. It is the punishment for going against the royal descendants.”
Those senior students who vowed to serve his highness Prince Rigel followed his words with a question. They all made their move to attack Lin Tian. Things were quite okay at first as Lin Tian could at most block the attacks from the other side but as time went on, Prince Rigel increased the number of people who he ordered to keep attacking him and it got harder and harder for him to block.
Seeing this Halley Ascella could no longer hold back and was about to announce who she was when suddenly someone pushed his shoulder back down. When turned around to look who it was, she recognized that it was someone from his class.
Qu Yeon whispered, “Don’t show yourself, princess. They are doing this for you to announce your stance. Our lands don’t get along too well. Your standing would be bad if you revealed yourself. Please let it be our Lord.”
A frown appeared on Princess Halley’s face. As someone from Orion Empire’s royal family, her standing is quite a in peril in this place. After all, Planet Citlali is still the Oberion Empire’s Territory.
Halley Ascelle asked, “Who is your lord?”
But before someone answered her question a commotion took place in the area where Lin Tian is. It seems that someone had accidentally entered the space where Young Master Lin is.
It was Feng Jing. “Owie~ who pushed me just now!?” he perfectly landed in front of Lin Tian who was about to get hit.
Everyone who saw this scene panicked for a moment. They’ve also recognized Feng Jing who appeared out of nowhere.
“Lord Jing! Watch out!?” someone from the crowds shouted.
Prince Rigel shouted, “Stop right now!”
At this moment even Prince Rigel had a change of expression. After all, even if Feng Jing is a waste from the Phoenix Family, he is still a Feng descendant and that clan is full of lunatics. With the scene of the competition broadcasted live on Star Network, there is no way no one from the Feng Family is watching. If he accidentally harm this stupid waste of an uncle of his, not only the Feng Clan but even his Crowned King Uncle Zenith would definitely make things harder for his father.
He tried to stop his people but he voiced his command too late. There is only a few inches space in between the fist from a Sentinel who serves him and Feng Jing’s face. This scene almost made everyone scream at the imagined ending of Feng Jing’s head exploding like a rotten watermelon.
AAAAHHHHHHH!!!
‘Oh no!! I’m going to end up killing him!’ Thoughts of the Sentinel who is about to hit Feng Jing.
Prince Naja’s excited thoughts at this impending bloody scene, ‘GO! Destroy that annoying face! Kill him!’
Prince Rigel’s thoughts, ‘If Feng Jing dies it will be the end of my family! I must think of an excuse to lessen the damage on my side.’
While everyone already thought of the scene of Lord Jing’s head exploding, Lin Tian’s body moves to at least cover Feng Jing with his body to receive the attack. But before he could even move he saw a smile appear on Young Lord Feng’s lips which made him halt his movements. In just a split second, Feng Wu and Xue Ran appeared. They’ve both attacked the one who was harmed, Feng Jing. Xue Ran hit the man in his heart directly while the other attacked him with spiritual qi. The man is more dead than a corpse.
Xue Ran’s attack directly crushed the heart of that Sentinel while Feng Wu broke that person’s spirit. No matter how good one’s medical abilities are, this dead person could only be dead.
With a hole in that Sentinel’s body, a missing heart was squashed to nothing. Those who are weak to such a gory scream couldn’t help but scream. These students might be future soldiers but they are still unbaptized by the scene of someone killing their own. This scene even made Navi Naja puke as he ran off to the side. He might like bullying others but this is the first time he had seen someone kill anyone.
Even those from Feng Jing’s group didn’t expect Xue Ran and Feng Jing to kill that person. But they also didn’t react that badly as just based on that person’s strength if his fist had landed on Feng Jing, the one whose head would explode would be the latter.
Silence spreads in the area and at the center is a dead man with a missing heart and broken soul.
Prince Naja pointed at Xue Ran and Feng Wu while trembling, “Y-You… You… You killed him! You really killed him!”
Feng Wu said, “My Lord, are you hurt somewhere?”
“I’m okay~” replied Feng Jing while smiling gently as usual. His expression at this moment totally doesn’t fit the situation they are in right now.
Xue Ran and Feng Wu ignored the annoying prince’s words and looked at Feng Jing who was smiling as he sat in front of Lin Tian as if the dead had nothing to do with him. Seeing this kind of reaction Prince Rigel knew that the ending of this situation leans badly on their side.
Prince Rigel stepped in first and asked someone from his side to stop Navi Naja from making a scene. This incident’s fault is because of them. After all, Feng Jing accidentally stumbled upon the fighting field and got caught up with it. Xue Ran and Feng Wu’s actions were as stated in the laws of the Empire.
A Sentinel is not allowed to raise his hand against someone weaker than himself, especially towards a guide or an ordinary person. This is a law punishable by death. The person can be killed on the spot if found. This is what Xue Ran and Feng Jing had executed.
