Chapter 1454: Champion
Chapter 1454: Champion
The sun rose up into the air, and it shone into the valley. The white snow and icy cliff glistened as a result.
Li Qingshan planted another person upside down, and the cheers surged like waves. The soldiers no longer cared about anything else. All they saw was bare strength.The generals came up with various methods to overwhelm him, even trying to crush him through switching in and out of battle, but he would always overcome them by force, growing stronger as he fought instead.
“Who else?”
Li Qingshan brushed off the dust from his hands, and his feeling of exhaustion vanished. The ape demon budged, nearing the boundary.
However, no one answered him anymore. He had basically beaten up all of the generals. The remaining female generals of the Xuanwu army had never joined in because they thought it was very embarrassing if Li Qingshan planted them in the ground upside down. Now, they simply gave up.
They discussed, “No wonder he’s so bold! So it’s backed by his ability! That strength is enough for him to overwhelm all the inner disciples of the Myriad sect!”
“I heard he just underwent the fourth heavenly tribulation recently!”
“Impressive, truly impressive.”
“What, he’s caught your fancy, old granny?”
“Heh, I basically want to take a bite out of him right now.”
Chao Tianjiao glanced past them, and they all fell silent, smiling at one another.
“Li Qingshan, you can go now.”
Li Qingshan asked with a smile, “Am I the champion?”
Chao Tianjiao rolled her eyes. “You’re the champion.”

A champion possessed unmatched valour. He stood supreme among the generals, so of course, he was the undisputed champion.
“Alright!” Li Qingshan leapt up, flying towards Chao Tianjiao.
Chao Tianjiao furrowed her brows and clenched her fist, but he flew past her, arriving before the female generals behind her. He smiled. “So who wants to take a bite out of me?”
How could the female generals answer him? Chao Tianjiao radiated with murderousness as she ground her teeth. She stressed each word as she said, “Do you want to die?”
Li Qingshan laughed. With a leap, he vanished into Black Cloud city.
……
The army-wide military competition finally came to an end. No one in Black Cloud city dared to underestimate this “crawling general” anymore, and as the champion, Li Qingshan obviously received a sum of contribution.
Li Qingshan’s name rose up the Myriad rankings once again, reaching the middle ranks of the inner disciples, which led to another round of sighs of amazement on the square. He was like a rising new star. No one could stop him.
The Fate Perturbing casino.
Le Tian peered into the distance through the floor-to-ceiling window and remarked, “Dark, how dark! Even their faces have probably darkened.”
Pi Yangqiu raised his cup and smiled. “I really want to see their expressions right now. Even first senior sister and first senior brother are powerless over him. I’m absolutely amazed.”
The Department of Military Provisions.
The direct disciples that had sent Li Qingshan onto the battlefield gathered together. Their complexions did not seem particularly well.
Ge Xing laid out his hands. “You tell me to do something, but what can I do? If even the two of them are powerless over him, who can still do anything to him? We better consider how we’re supposed to get along in the future if he does become a direct disciple instead!”
The direct disciples looked at one another. They all felt a little pained.
The Pavilion of Heavenly Tomes.
The Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance constantly kept an eye out for any news regarding Li Qingshan. Every bit of ruckus he created seemed to be unexpected, yet it also seemed to make perfect sense. He was connected to the sages, so if he did not make a ruckus, that would be strange instead!
He constantly contemplated the reply that the Elder of Heavenly Tomes had sent from beyond the Nine Heavens. It was three simple words—Wait and see.
He spent a good time calculating, but he was unable to find the meaning behind these three words, so he stuck with what they meant literally and waited and saw.
Master manages the imperial study for the heavenly emperor. His senses are sharp, and his knowledge is broad, well beyond anything that a spirit immortal like me can match. So be it. Overthinking brings no benefit. I’ll just do as he says.
No matter how many books he read, it could not make up for the difference in cultivation and status.
Though, now that the kid’s entered the battlefield, there’s no one to deliver books to me anymore.
The Hundred Herbs garden was still a sight of spring with its gentle breezes, idyllic as always.
A golden-red phoenix stood high on the golden-leaved bodhi tree and sang loudly. Flocks of birds and avians flew about with his clear, gentle singing.
He had already undergone the fourth heavenly tribulation. Through his extraordinary talent and consolidation, the entire process had basically been devoid of danger. After that, he took up the job that Li Qingshan had left behind. He was not familiar with any clone techniques, but as the old saying went, all birds paid homage to the phoenix.
He possessed the natural ability to order avians around and had specially purchased some birds from the Spiritual Beast garden. Through his experiences as the king of the featherfolk, he commanded them with ease.
He played a role in Li Qingshan’s climb up the Myriad rankings too.
Ruan Yaozhu saw this and teasingly said, “Jiu’er, he’s far more useful than you.”
The nine-coloured deer said, “Hmph, why don’t you get a new mount then?”
Speaking of mounts, Ruan Yaozhu recalled Li Qingshan again for some reason. She reddened slightly and sighed inside. That’s where he truly belongs! Hopefully, first senior sister and he can set aside their feud.
……
“Li Qingshan!” Chao Tianjiao’s face seemed to have frosted over, which made the temperature in the room plummet.
“F- first senior sister, what brings you here?” A woman’s voice rang out from the bed. It was the female general who had said she wanted to take a bite out of Li Qingshan during the army-wide martial arts competition.
After the martial arts competition concluded, Li Qingshan continued strolling through the city, looking for an opportunity to break through to the fifth layer of the ape demon. However, no one challenged him anymore. He could not get his way by force with something like this either, so he could only give up.
However, it had not been completely fruitless. As someone who possessed all the charms that a woman could look for, great officer Li found several female companions.
“Sigh, what is it now?” Li Qingshan opened his eyes and rolled over lazily. The blanket slipped off him, revealing his robust body that was completely naked.
“Come with me. There’s a mission.” Chao Tianjiao behaved like she had seen nothing at all, turning around to leave.
Li Qingshan immediately got up, following her out after draping a set of clothes on. He was not reluctant to leave the female companion behind him at all.
The female general laughed. “Kid, be sure to come back when you have time.”
“Understood.”
In the Xuanwu hall, Chao Tianjiao cut to the chase. “I want you to scout out Cold Blood pass again.”
“And I had thought it was something big. Can’t you just send someone to let me know for something so insignificant? You didn’t have to come in person. Don’t tell me it’s just so you could get a glance?” Li Qingshan stretched his neck and turned his head.
The image of Maheśvara had been erased, but after a period of recuperation and rest, the Heavenly Tome of Liberty and the Illusionary Demon Movement Technique had progressed again. He had not just spent his time with women during this period.
“I’ll come with you. Cover me with your Yin Soul,” Chao Tianjiao said seriously.
Winter was almost over, and a new round of battle would begin. However, the incident in Cold Blood pass left her rather uneasy, so she had to get to the bottom of it. This was her responsibility as a captain. It went beyond her personal grievances.

She could conceal her aura, but she was not skilled at moving in stealth. Once the demonfolk were wary, it was very easy for her to be exposed. When Li Qingshan demonstrated the Illusionary Demon Movement Technique during the martial arts competition, she had already decided on this.
Li Qingshan also became serious. He tried to persuade her. “Don’t tell me you’re trying to carry out another assassination! The demonfolk aren’t stupid. You created such a great mess last time, so how can they be unprepared now?”
“It’s not an assassiantion. It’s just scouting.” For once, Chao Tianjiao explained her plans to him.
“If it’s just scouting, isn’t sending me enough?”
“If the need arises, assassinations are possible too.” Chao Tianjiao pressed down on his shoulder and smiled brightly.
Li Qingshan felt pain from his shoulders. He sighed. “Can I decline?” He just felt like nothing good could come out of being with her.
“Military orders are absolute!”
“Yes, ma’am.”
