Gate of God

Disciple of the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

This status might not sound as noble in the Heaven Dao Pavilion, but if such a status were to be placed in the Great Xia Dynasty or in front of anybody else.

It was sufficient to garner respect.

The young man leaped from the back of the flying beast and landed on the ground smoothly. He held onto a stack of book. From a glance away, he was looking very confident.

“There are quite a lot of people here.” The young man scanned around, as he said in an arrogant tone.

Following that, three young men, who were dressed in scholarly robes, came down from above, with serious expressions on their faces.

“Brother Kong Qing!” One of them addressed him politely.

“Mmm, master had given us the responsibility to take over this Heaven Dao Pavilion test, thank you all for the hard work.” Kong Qing said and looked away from them.

“We will listen to your commands!” The three of them bowed.

Kong Qing did not continue the conversation with the trio, as he left and walked towards the crowded group of people. His eyes were shining brightly.

The biennial Heaven Dao Pavilion test can be said as the only “big event” that contained interaction between the Heaven Dao Pavilion and the outside world. To be able to take on this responsibility, proved Qing Dao’s capabilities.

Of course, other than his capabilities, there were also his qualifications.

Kong Qing might be young, but it was already six years since he had entered the Heaven Dao Pavilion. From the time he had entered the Supernatural State till the time he had reached the peak of the Rebirth State.

His path to the Heaven Dao Pavilion might not seem that outstanding.

But he had improved tremendously.

Taking on the responsibility wasn’t as easy as it seemed. It involved explaining the rules to the contestants and more importantly, observing the aptitude and potential in each one of them.

Honestly, the purpose was to show them the difficulty of the Heaven Dao Pavilion test. And only in front of these difficulties, that one’s problem solving skills and attitudes can be seen.

Similarly, it was also a way of pointing out one’s potential.

As for encouragement…

It was not needed at all.

These three words “Heaven Dao Pavilion” would be the strongest encouragement to many generations of families, as countless young men would crack their brains trying to enter it. Even princes from different countries would flock over just to contest.

Why would they require more words of encouragement?

“Mmhmm!” Kong Qing coughed as he stopped five steps away from the crowd. His eyes were as bright as a torch, emitting an oppressive feeling.

Over the years, those who could participate in the Heavenly Pavilion selection test were the elites and the talents from all countries. Therefore, the characters of these elites were predictable.

Arrogant, confident.

And Kong Qing’s most important task here would be to let people lose their arrogance, as well as their confidence. To empty themselves and return everything to zero.

…

There were not many facilities at the bottom of the Heaven Mountain.

The luxuries were incomparable to the Capital City as well as the capitals of the various dynasties. In fact, they were even worse than the average small villages. Because there were only five small wooden houses.

Other than that, there were not even an egg in sight.

However the exterior of the five wooden houses looked extravagant, as they were made out of white wood. They looked very clean and tidy.

There was even a piece of land in front of the houses, and little white pebbles were laid out on the ground. They were of the similar sizes and shapes.

But…….

There was a lack of space in between them. With hundreds of people crowding on the piece of land, it looked very packed and squeezy.

The appearance of Kong Qing and three men had successfully drawn the attention of everyone.

It quietened the discussions of the crowd.

However, it was only quiet. To make it soundless would be impossible as there would definitely be breathing sounds.

Moreover, they were all elites, absolute top elites.

Many people were of higher status and it could be differentiated from the patterns printed on their fur coats.

“Why are there so many people here when only 32 tokens are received by the Heaven Dao Pavilion?” Kong Qing asked.

“…” Nobody answered.

There were only eye contacts between one another. Silence prevailed.

“Scram!” Kong Qing said coldly.

“Shaaa…”

Instantly, hundreds of people scattered to the back, leaving behind 32 young men wearing their royal fur coats.

Of course, other than the 32 men, the whole place was filled with the crumbles of fruits and biscuits.

“Great, the unnecessary people are gone, but…..” Kong Qing nodded his head gently as he scanned the whole area, “Why are there still so many rubbish on the floor?”

“…” Silence again.

The 32 young men did not answer once again.

However, dozens of people who had already ran away came running back again, and all of them quickly bent down to collect the rubbish.

“Did I ask you guys to pick them up?” Kong Qing waved his hand as a white colour puff of air blew towards the group of people.

“Pong!”

“Pong, pong…..”

“Ahhhhhh…”

A few crashings sounds could be heard, accompanied by a few screams. Dozens of people who ran over earlier were all being pushed back.

“I understand that the envoy was trying to showcase his authority, but might it be a little too harsh this time round?” At this moment, a voice came out instantly from the 32 young men. Then, a young man dressed in a light blue coat, which was embroidered with an eagle-like beast above his chest area, stood up.

“Your Sixth Highness, please stand back quickly!” A faint sound could be heard just as the young men stepped up.

It was a woman wearing a blue long dress, looking pure and innocent. However, her face was pale and her mouth had a blood trail at the side.

Obviously…

The lady had just been attacked and was hurt terribly.

The young man in blue coat trembled when he heard the woman’s words. He clenched his fists tightly before releasing them.

The young man decided to return back to the crowd.

“What, why did not retreat? You can’t even defend your lady as a man?” Kong Qing gave a cold smile as he looked at the young man returning back to the crowd.

The young man clenched his fists again as he grinded his teeth together loudly. His cold eyes scanned the surrounding, but he endured silently and did not open his mouth to refute.

“I will give you a chance to defeat me then I will apologize to her!” Kong Qing had no intention in letting go of the young man, as he spoke and pointed at the lady.

The young man remained quiet as his body continued to tremble.

“You, can leave now!” Kong Qing waved his hand at the young man.

“Why?” The young man finally spoke, his expression filled with disbelief, “just because I said that you gave them a heavy blow? If it was really that case, I can apologize!”

“Fine, kneel and apologise to me!” Kong Qing nodded.

“You…” The young man had a change in his expression. He did mention about apologising, but kneeling down to apologise was totally something different.

“Pu Tong!” There was loud thud sound.

The young man did not kneel. Instead, it was the blue long dress lady who had kneeled down. She moved rapidly towards Kong Qing and bowed in front of him.

“Mister Envoy, I beg you, the Sixth Highness is a man with outstanding talents. He had already stepped into the Rebirth State. He was just being foolish earlier to have committed that mistake, please let him go this once, on behalf of the talents of the Sixth Highness as well as the status of the Sixth Prince of the Radiant Moon Empire.” The blue dress lady said as she kowtowed on the ground.

“Rebirth State?” Kong Qing grinned when he heard that. “Looks like that he was really gifted, I only managed to attain the Supernatural State when I first entered the Heaven Dao Pavilion.”

“I beg your forgiveness!” The blue dress lady heard it and her eyes gave out a slight ray of hope.

“Fine then, I will give him another chance. Three strokes, if he can just handle these three strokes, I will not only let him stay, but I will even apologize to you. How’s that?” Kong Qing was still smiling when he said that.

“That’s what you said!” The blue coat young man gave him a cold stare as a ray of blue light lighted up around his body.

“Ummm, I said that.” Kong Qing nodded his head.

The three young men standing around him began taking a few steps back slowly as they gave the blue coat dress a helpless look.

The blue coat young man did not continue any further.

Instead, he had already sprung into action.

In the next moment, there was a water curtain separating Kong Qing and him. It was one heavy downpour of water falling from the horizon, string by string, and as thin as silk.

Then the blue coat young man also started moving.

As fast as lighting, he leaped through the water curtain, and he transcended into a streak of light. He was surrounded with rolls of crystal bright light.

It resembled water droplets.

“The drops of water could pierce through stones. The Radiant Moon Empire’s Waters Droplet Sword looked so beautiful!” Kong Qing smiled casually but he did not move an inch. He only stood there and waited for the blue coat young man to move towards him.

Water Droplets Sword.

Definitely cannot be without a sword.

However, the sword was hiding in the countless droplets of water. It was a camouflaging tactic, yet powerful and vigorous. It was a strange way of attacking.

“Ding!”

The sword emerged out.

It was a blue long crystal clear sword and it was only one inch away from Kong Qing’s body. Then it pierced through the drips of water and towards Kong Qing’s throat.

The strangest thing happened just when the sword pierced through the water.

Kong Qing remained motionless.

But the sword that was flying towards Kong Qing’s throat paused as a sharp scream came out. It felt like the atmosphere was being rubbed in friction and being oppressed.

The expression on blue coat young man instantly changed.

Because he felt like he had been pressed against so tightly. The force was as heavy as a mountain, pressing down against his chest, resulting in his difficulty to breathe.

What just happened?

Was it the Heavenly Dao?

No!

That wasn’t the Heavenly Dao, but it was controlling the atmosphere.

“It was indeed very impressive, but just a little lacking in strength.” Kong Qing squinted as he raised one leg, while the other was down, before kicking the chest of the blue coat young man.

The next moment…

The blue coat young man flew directly back.

That was not the end, and just as Kong Qing had finished that kick, his body disappeared. WHen it had re-appeared, it was already on top of the blue coat young man.

“Pong!” It was a stifling sound.

Then the whole earth began shaking vigorously.

The blue coat young man crashed down heavily on the floor. While he did not shatter the white pebbles on the ground, a pool of blood was spurting out profusely from his mouth.

“What a shame that you chose to defend all the way instead of going forward to attack. There might still have a chance for you to stay, but you failed to withstand the anger building in you.” Kong Qing landed on the ground again and shook his head when he looked at the pale face young man.

“The Sixth Highness of the Radiant Moon Empire, impatient and rashless. Out!”

…

Nobody really understood what was going to happen in the Heaven Dao Pavilion test. Because after announcing the elimination of The Sixth Highness of the Radiant Moon Empire, Kong Qing turned around and entered one of the wooden houses.

As for the rest of the young men, they stayed put and did not say anything.

The afternoon sunlight was shining on the ground, and it was bright red beaming on the flat ground.

“Young Master, the Heaven Dao Pavilion test has already started, looks like Fang Zhengzhi won’t be here.” A soft voice came out from the crowd of 32 men.

“No, he will be here.” Qian Wu, wearing a dress of black coat, scanned at the three young men standing before him. Then looked at a figure from afar.

“Why are you so confident about this, Young Master?” The voice came up again.

“That’s because Yan Xiu is here.” Qian Wu continued staring at the figure standing faraway, giving an unconcerned look.

Yan Xiu was here!

Then where was Fang Zhengzhi?

These thoughts were floating in Qian Wu.

Although Fang Zhengzhi’s name wasn’t in the list for the list, but he still appeared here, he had travelled a far distance from the Holy Barbarian Empire.

His purpose was to get back his stolen “fame”.

As the next heir to the throne of the Hold Barbarian Empire, he had disdained the throne, but that did not mean that he could tolerate the criticism from people.

The strongest, would never accept failures.

Even if it was just once!

The real survivor, would stand up again from where he had failed.

Therefore, there was Qian Wu.

But the current Qian Wu had yet to realise the situation happening inside the small wooden house now.

The energetic Kong Qing was trembling constantly . He could not understand that under the foot of the Heaven Dao Pavilion and under the sight of his three brothers,

Someone would actually dare to sneak up behind him and used the “Stifling Rod” method.

“Bam!” Kong Qing fell on the floor, and his body went soft and strengthless. The moment he entered the house, he was already poisoned.

A man dressed in blue coat also came out from the darkness at the same time, and he stared Kong Qing and said, “Disciple of the Heaven Dao Pavilion? Your strength is only average!”
