Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1222: Chapter 289: Chen Jie: It’s My Turn to Act!

The crowd began to silently regulate their breathing, seizing the time to restore their Gang Qi.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke: ”Everyone, I am Niu Ba from the Haozhou Huangjue Temple.”

The crowd was taken aback and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, not understanding what this secular monk intended to do. Zhu Yuanzhang continued: ”Everyone, we all have the cultivation level of the Dragon Realm, with some being experts on the Heroic List. Our strengths are not vastly different, and if we fight each other, it would easily lead to discord.”

”The purpose of everyone’s visit this time is not to compete in martial arts, but to seize Wu Mu’s Legacy. Therefore, I suggest that when we duel later, we, the strong ones of the Dragon Realm, should refrain from internal killing. By maintaining a distance between each other, we can avoid depleting our power internally. Do you all agree with my suggestion?”

Zhu Yuanzhang addressed the crowd.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and after a moment, three Wudang members said: ”What Brother Niu Ba said is very reasonable, we agree.”

Saying this, the crowd looked over to the Fang siblings on the other side, as they were the only other Dragon Realm experts present.

Fang Zheng said: ”Hmm, I have no objections.”

After hearing this, everyone thought this conversation was settled, but unexpectedly, Fang Susu spoke: ”Niu Ba, you mentioned the Heroic List. Who among us is on it?”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang responded: ”Ah, this...”

Before he could finish, Mo Shenggu interjected: ”Of course, it’s my Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother.”

Upon hearing this, Yin Liting said: ”Shenggu, do not act rashly. Brother Fang Zheng is also a prominent figure on the Heroic List.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Shenggu turned to Fang Zheng: ”Oh, I almost forgot, Brother Fang is also a figure on the Heroic List.”

Fang Zheng clasped his hands and said: ”I am humbled.”

Yin Liting said: ”Brother Fang’s ranking is above mine, and I haven’t even expressed humility, yet Brother Fang does. I would have no place to stand.”

After hearing this, Fang Susu curiously said: ”Brother, why am I hearing about this Heroic List for the first time?”

Fang Zheng replied: ”Oh, it’s a ranking within the Jianghu Martial World, and I happened to be listed during my last Jianghu training.”

Fang Susu asked: ”Am I on the list?”

Fang Zheng said: ”This is your first time away from the island, so the Jianghu doesn’t know about you. How could you be on the list?”

Fang Susu said: ”Oh, I’ve heard of the Heavenly List and the Earth List, but this is the first time I’m hearing about the Heroic List.”

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang from a distance said: ”Such a beautiful girl should be on the Rouge List.”

”Rouge List?”

The crowd was confused, but from the name, they knew it was a list for beauties of the Jianghu, and each looked at Fang Susu.

She’s indeed quite pretty.

At this, Fang Susu said: ”I don’t care about the Rouge List, but how is the Heroic List determined?”

After hearing this, Mo Shenggu said: ”Those under thirty who have reached the Dragon Realm and have verifiable achievements in the Jianghu can be listed.”

Fang Susu said: ”Oh, I see.”

”The Heavenly List is for the ten who surpass the Molten Furnace Realm, the Earth List for the ten in the Molten Furnace Realm, and the Heroic List for the ten in the Dragon Realm. Interesting, interesting.”

At this, Fang Susu looked at her brother: ”Brother, what’s your rank?”

Fang Zheng said: ”Fifth.”

Fang Susu turned to Yin Liting: ”And you?”

Yin Liting clasped his hands and said: ”Seventh.”

”And you?”

Fang Susu looked at Mo Shenggu, who replied: ”I, it’s my first time leaving the mountain.”

Fang Susu said: ”Oh, not on the list then.”

Mo Shenggu said: ”If it weren’t my first time descending the mountain, I would certainly be on the list, at least in eighth or ninth place, if not as good as Sixth Brother.”

After hearing this, Fang Susu said: ”Interesting. By the way, Niu Ba, you don’t look over thirty either, are you on the list?”

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: ”Haha, I have but a little skill, how could I be qualified to be on the list? Those on the list are all like heavenly talents.”

Fang Susu said: ”Oh, I see.”

Saying this, Fang Susu looked at Zhang CuiShan: ”And you, what’s your rank on the Heroic List?”

Zhang CuiShan smiled warmly and said: ”A little skill, not worth mentioning.”

Fang Susu looked at Zhang CuiShan and said: ”What is it actually? Don’t keep me guessing!”

Zhang CuiShan smiled without speaking until Mo Shenggu said: ”My Fifth Brother is ranked third on the Heroic List.”

Hearing this, Zhang CuiShan glanced at Mo Shenggu and said: ”Seventh Junior Brother.”

Mo Shenggu shrugged: ”Whether said or not, it’s third.”

”Third, why are you ranked above my brother!”

Hearing this, Fang Susu frowned and looked at Zhang CuiShan.

”Susu!”

Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng called out to Fang Susu, who looked defiantly at Zhang CuiShan. Zhang CuiShan said: ”It’s all Jianghu rumors, not to be taken seriously.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng immediately apologized: ”Fifth Hero Zhang, my sister meant no harm, please forgive her.”

Zhang CuiShan said: ”It’s alright, what your sister said isn’t wrong, I do feel unworthy of my position.”

Fang Zheng said: ”Fifth Hero Zhang, you’re joking.”

”Susu, apologize to Fifth Hero Zhang.”

Fang Susu said: ”I won’t.”

Fang Zheng was also helpless: ”Fifth Hero Zhang, my sister has been spoiled by our father.”

Zhang CuiShan replied: ”No problem, no problem.”

As they spoke, thirty minutes passed, and at this time, Lord Wuxiang stepped onto the arena and said: ”Everyone, time is up.”

Upon hearing this, the crowd began to converge towards the center.

At this time, Lord Wuxiang said: ”Please, Wudang’s Fifth Hero Zhang.”

After saying this, the crowd watched as Zhang CuiShan directly jumped onto the arena, and following this, Lord Wuxiang said: ”Who will challenge Young Hero Zhang next?”

Upon these words, the crowd fell silent. Who would challenge him without reason? But without challenging, there’s no way to advance.
