Fight To Death!!

Long Chen knew that his situation was not good, he fled. He frantically ran towards the core region of the forest in hope that the two pursuers would face some dangerous Demonic monster and he would be able to keep his life. As he was running he was thinking, ''Who would want to kill me? It seems that General Wong's warning was not wrong. It must be the Tan family and General Xie who would want to kill me. But there should be executives who should count the number of monsters killed by a candidate. That means they should either be the executives with a tie to Tan family and General Xie or they have killed the executives of Martial school. But the Tan family wouldn't be so daring to kill someone of the Martial School who even the Emperor have to give some respect".

Upon thinking all this Long Chen's face become gloomy. He has mastered late stages of [swordessence] but it was not enough to kill both of them.

"Where are you running you brat? Do you think you could stay away from us", laughed Tan Xiu and Murong Xun. They have not taken Long Chen very seriously. As he was already injured, so what else could he do. Upon hearing this Long Chen stopped thinking anything else and ran as fast as he could because saving his own life is very important. Seeing Long Chen now started running slightly faster, they laughed and followed.

On the other side, Ye Zhong and Yang Bufan have started fighting with the Heavenly Devil Ape intensely. Unknowingly to them, both of their bottlenecks seem to loosened and they were close to a breakthrough.

"Boom" "Boom", Ye Zhong was sending punch after punch. And Yang Bufan was also sending Slash after slash towards the Devil ape. The fight was quite intense. As they were quite close to breakthrough the pressure on the Devil ape started to increase.

"BOOM", and Ye Zhong aura now started to increase. He has broken through to the 2nd layer of Creation stage but there was no happiness as he was busy fighting with the Devil ape. After sometime Yang Bufan has also achieved his breakthrough but his breakthrough was in his intent. He had finally managed to achieve [saber intent]. Though it was only an early stage. It increased his fighting strength. After both of their strength seemed to increase. It only took them a couple of minutes to kill the Devil Ape.

Though they have managed to kill the ape they were not happy as they don't know what happened to Long Chen.

"We don't know anything and we can't help them in any way by standing here. So let's get out of the forest and ask others about it. I will ask my uncle and guards. You can ask your head of Southern Camp. If we meet any executive of Martial school, we will ask them about it."

Hearing this Ye Zhong nodded, "You are correct. We cannot help Brother Long in any way so let's ask for help".

Outside of the forest, All the people were waiting for the round end and know who was the one who got selected. Some families were waiting for their family members to come out.

"It's the Seventh Prince", someone shouted. They saw Yang Bufan and Ye Zhong coming out of the forest.

"Its Southern Camp's Ye Zhong And Seventh Prince", People recognized them. All the people were slightly confused as to why are they here so quick. It's only 3 days and there were about 4 days left for the round to end. A tall man with a handsome face, seemed to be about 40 years of age wearing a golden robe came out and asked Yang Bufan, "Bufan, what happen? Why are you here so early?". He was Yang Zhi, uncle of Bufan.

A similar question was asked to Ye Zhong by the head of Southern Genius camp. Ye Zhong and Yang Bufan looked at each other and Yang Bufan started to explain what happened to Long Chen.

Hearing this General Wong became enraged and he shouted, "General Xie Cong and Tan Family members if anything happened to Long Chen, you will bar my fury".

Upon hearing this crowd bustled with discussion. General Xie's face contorted with anger and he furiously rebuked, "How is anything happening to that brat my responsibility". Tan family elders also rebuked in the same manner.

General Wong then shouted, "Long Chen has no enmity with anyone. When he defeated your geniuses, he took away your disciples chance of entering the Martial School. An everyone knew how you all took revenge upon small grievances. Moreover, from the Martial House's executives, there might be someone from your connection". The crowd again started discussing and shaming General Xie and Tan Family.

In the middle of the forest, Long Chen was running and the two assassins were leisurely following. Long Chen thought, "I can't run anymore. Running anymore is the same as death. If it is so then lets fight to DEATH!!".
