Chapter 4115: Death Pact

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The young prodigies were naturally arrogant to their bones.

w.a.n.g Yun Sheng had refused Duan Ling Tian previously because he was worried that Duan Ling Tian was still hiding his strength. The fear of dying led him to refuse Duan Ling Tian even when Duan Ling Tian proposed a five-versus-one life-or-death battle even if it was embarra.s.sing. Apart from that, although he did not think Duan Ling Tian was a match for the five of them, as a proud prodigy of the Lone Spirit Primordial Congregation and one of the top students in the Myriad Laws Academy, he did not think there was anything to be proud of if the five of them killed Duan Ling Tian.

However, the crowd’s expressions and words turned stranger and stranger when they looked at him after Duan Ling Tian refused to fight Hong Li and the other three unless he was also involved. He could no longer withstand the humiliation and wanted nothing more than to kill Duan Ling Tian at this moment.

“Duan Ling Tian, I accept your challenge to a life-or-death battle. I hope you don’t regret it,” w.a.n.g Yun Sheng said icily as he glared at Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian scoffed. “It seems like you finally regain a little courage now that you have four helpers. I should’ve suggested from the beginning that you get helpers. Regret? What’s there to regret when you’re going to die soon?”

!!

w.a.n.g Yun Sheng, Hong Li, and the other three exploded in anger again upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words.

“Preposterous!”

“Duan Ling Tian, let’s head over to the Palace of Death now to sign the death pact!”

“Duan Ling Tian, I can’t wait to kill you.”

The Palace of Death was the venue for life-or-death battles between the students. Conflicts, feuds, and enmity were inevitable when there were so many people. The Palace of Death became a place for many to settle their scores. Nonetheless, it was usually empty. Only one teacher was a.s.signed to look after the place at a time. Under normal circ.u.mstances, the teacher in charge could cultivate undisturbed in the Palace of Death.

Yuan Dong Chun, an advanced Emperor of G.o.ds, was a.s.signed to look after the Palace of Death today. He was on the brink of becoming a rudimentary Supreme G.o.d so he was very diligent in cultivating. Being a.s.signed to the Palace of Death was ideal in his eyes since it gave him time to cultivate. He did not expect that he would be disturbed today.

‘Duan Ling Tian?’

Yuan Dong Chun had heard about Duan Ling Tian two months ago when he was on duty in the Palace of Death. He had also heard about the task that was posted on the Dark Net and that Duan Ling Tian refused w.a.n.g Yun Sheng. Then, recently, he heard about Duan Ling Tian challenging w.a.n.g Yun Sheng to a life-or-death battle, which was subsequently refused by w.a.n.g Yun Sheng.

Similar to many others, Yuan Dong Chun thought Duan Ling Tian was no match for w.a.n.g Yun Sheng when w.a.n.g Yun Sheng first challenged Duan Ling Tian. Hence, he had been surprised when Duan Ling Tian challenged w.a.n.g Yun Sheng to a life-or-death battle. He also heard that the reason Duan Ling Tian had issued such a challenge was due to his suspicion that the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation was behind the deaths of his friends in the lower realms.

Although there was no evidence, Yuan Dong Chun also thought that the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation was the culprit. He knew a thing or two about the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, after all. The Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation was not below such despicable means if things did not go their way.

Previously, Yuan Dong Chun was also surprised when he heard about w.a.n.g Yun Sheng refusing to fight Duan Ling Tian in a life-or-death battle. After all, this indicated that w.a.n.g Yun Sheng was afraid that Duan Ling Tian was truly strong enough to kill him. Moreover, if he died, even the Leader of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation could not do anything since a death pact had to be signed prior to a life-or-death battle.

Needless to say, Yuan Dong Chun was surprised again today when he learned that Duan Ling Tian challenged w.a.n.g Yun Sheng and another four disciples from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation to a life-or-death battle. After all, those four disciples’ combined strength was enough to kill w.a.n.g Yun Sheng.

‘Is Duan Ling Tian crazy? Is he trying to intimidate them? However, if that’s the case, they have no reason to come to the Palace of Death…’ Yuan Dong Chun wondered inwardly, puzzled. In any case, there was nothing he could do to stop it even if he wanted to. As long as both parties agreed to it, they were allowed to fight a life-or-death battle.

Yuan Dong Chun stared at Duan Ling Tian intently as he said in a solemn voice, “Duan Ling Tian, you better think this through. You’ll have to fight to the end against five of them once you sign the death pact. Do you really want to continue?”

At the same time, Yuan Dong Chun also sent a message to Yang Yu Chen. “Vice Academy Master Yang, are you aware that Duan Ling Tian wants to fight a life-or-death battle with five disciples from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, including w.a.n.g Yun Sheng, at the same time?”

Yuan Dong Chun was just an ordinary teacher in the Myriad Laws Academy; he was not a member of the Legacy faction. Apart from that, he was already friends with Yang Yu Chen before Yang Yu Chen became a Supreme G.o.d. As such, he did not hesitate to inform Yang Yu Chen immediately, hoping that Yang Yu Chen would be able to dissuade Duan Ling Tian.

Contrary to Yuan Dong Chun’s expectations, Yang Yu Chen sounded very relaxed as he replied, “Do you think my junior brother has a death wish?”

Yuan Dong Chun asked anxiously, “Are you saying that your junior brother is capable of killing five of them? Even if it’s true, don’t you think it’s inappropriate? Even if the death pact is in place, the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation will grow even more hostile toward him if he kills all five of them. I won’t put it past the congregation to try and kill him and those related to him…”

“Even if he doesn’t kill the five of them, the congregation has already made a move against those related to him. Just let things flow naturally,” Yang Yu Chen said indifferently.

Yuan Dong Chun asked, “Did your junior brother tell you that he’s capable of killing w.a.n.g Yun Sheng and the others?”

“Yes,” Yang Yu Chen replied.

“And you believe him? He’s newso he doesn’t understand w.a.n.g Yun Sheng and the others…”

“I believe him.”

With this reply, Yuan Dong Chun did not know what else to say to Yang Yu Chen. He only looked at w.a.n.g Yun Sheng and the others as he asked solemnly, “Are the five of you sure that you want to sign the death pact? Not even the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation can avenge you if you die…”

w.a.n.g Yun Sheng, Hong Li, and the others naturally did not take Yuan Dong Chun’s words to heart.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Dong Chun could only nod and said, “Very well. Since that’s the case, you can go ahead and sign the death pact. Write your names and press your palms on the tablet.”

Yuan Dong Chun waved his hand, and a stone tablet appeared immediately. The rules were carved on the stone tablet, stating that the life-or-death battle had been agreed upon by both parties. The victor and the Myriad Laws Academy would also not be held accountable for the deaths of the other parties.

“Who’s first?”

As soon as Yuan Dong Chun’s voice fell, w.a.n.g Yun Sheng stepped forward and carved his name on the stone tablet before pressing his palm against it. After that, he said with a contemptuous smile, “Duan Ling Tian, you better don’t chicken out at this time.”

In w.a.n.g Yun Sheng’s opinion, there was still a chance for Duan Ling Tian to back out as long as Duan Ling Tian did not sign the death pact.

“I’ll naturally sign it after all of you are done,” Duan Ling Tian said nonchalantly.

w.a.n.g Yun Sheng looked at Hong Li and the others, prompting them to sign the death pact as well.

After that, Hong Li sneered and said, “It’s your turn, Duan Ling Tian.”

The students, who had gathered at the Palace of Death, turned to look at Duan Ling Tian in unison.

“Is Duan Ling Tian going to back out at the critical moment?”

“I bet he’s regretting putting up a front earlier…”

“He’ll definitely die once he signs the death pact…”

At the same time, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian carved his name on the stone tablet and pressed his palm against it in a leisurely manner.

Subsequently, Yuan Dong Chun announced, “The death pact has been signed by both parties.”
