Chapter 472 Ambush from Ten Sides!
Just as Kong Ling was about to give up, an extremely melodious tune resounded throughout the world. This tune seemed to be resisting the dark tunes, directly blocking the tunes that were attacking Kong Ling.
This scene startled all the members of the Holy Families and the Tribunal, who were aware of the connections involved, but then a relieved smile appeared on their faces.
After all, Ye Ru disregarded his own gains and losses, and instead helped Kong Ling to block the attack of the demon scholar. This kind of heart is rare and precious.
"Based on this young man's talent, if Kong Ling were to lose, he could probably defeat him even by himself. However, he did not do so. Clearly, he puts the greater good of humanity first."
"This kind of mentality, I'm afraid none of us could have had when we were young, right?"
Xie Ming looked at Ye Ru, who had helped Kong Ling share some of the pressure, and a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes. He then stroked his beard and said.
If Ye Ru here were replaced by his younger self, he might not be able to do as well as the other person.
After all, selfishness is a human weakness, and even Confucius could not completely give away his possessions.
This is not to contradict Confucius's words, but to look at the issue objectively. No one is perfect.
"But this round actually revealed three Ghost Scholars, which is quite an unexpected surprise."
A murderous glint flashed in Shi Tianze's eyes. Everything else could wait. As for this matter, whoever it was, as long as it was Ghost Scholar, he had to be killed!
"Let's wait until the competition is over, then we can see just how many surprises Ye Ru can give us."
"I'm really looking forward to his paper."
Xie Ming laughed heartily, showing no intention of stopping the other party. Based on this result, Yan Jin and his two companions had little chance of winning, and even with Ye Ru's full strength, they would probably suffer a defeat soon.
Two different musical tones swept through the venue, eventually spreading outwards. The different tones simultaneously reached the ears of the people, making them feel somewhat uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Kong Ling, after feeling a sudden sense of relief, looked at Ye Ru with some gratitude.
"Thank you."
After expressing his gratitude, a chill crept into Kong Ling's eyes. If the other party hadn't suddenly attacked him earlier, he would never have been in such a panic.
"We are both human, so there's no need for thanks. Let's find a way to defeat them, otherwise we will both suffer losses."
"This match no longer belongs to you and me; it is now a battle between us human scholars and the demon ghost scholars."
Ye Ru shook his head, a solemn expression on his face. This kind of competition was simply too troublesome, because it was impossible to kill or fight here; they could only use literary contests.
This, in a way, limits many possibilities.
Moreover, I am not very proficient in the Six Arts. In terms of theory, I can read the Siku Quanshu (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries), but in terms of practical application, I am somewhat lacking.
"I know, let's join forces. As for the outcome, let's leave it to fate."
After a moment of contemplation, a smile appeared on Kong Ling's face. She then straightened her expression, looked at the somewhat gloomy Yan Jin and the others, flicked her hand, and a green sound, like lightning, directly blasted towards Yan Jin and the other two.
"It seems that the scholars of your Jin state are not so great after all, and you still have to rely on the help of the enemy state, Yanhuang. I wonder if the emperor of Yanhuang will consider it treason if he sees a Jin person with whom he has a life-and-death feud receiving help from Yanhuang students."
Seeing this, Yan Jin sneered, then laughed loudly.
"What a low-level divisive tactic! These words might work on someone else, but they have absolutely no effect on me!"
Hearing this, Ye Ru was surprisingly not angry. Perhaps influenced by the original soul, he held the mindset of prioritizing the human race over the nation when it came to the Yanhuang Kingdom or the entire human race, especially emphasizing unity.
The other party's words were simply an attempt to defeat him and Kong Ling one by one.
"Hmph, then take this!"
Hit hard by his words, Yan Jin's face gradually darkened. The dark music swept out again, and the dark light waves that it transformed into continuously bombarded Ye Ru's Zen Heart of Clouds and Water.
Yan Feng and Yan Ming remained silent as they charged towards Ye Ru.
Their dark melodies transformed into a continuous barrage of black blades, slashing down upon the mist defense formed by Ye Ru.
Upon impact with the fog defense, an extremely powerful and piercing sound wave exploded in the ears of many scholars, causing their fingers to tremble and the melodies they played to become disordered.
At this moment, an incense stick was quickly lit, and as time passed, only a third of it remained.
Surprisingly, the three Yan brothers' scores have now surpassed those of Ye Ru and Kong Ling, indicating that the previous attacks were effective.
"We can't let this continue; we need to fight back."
Ye Ru turned his head and said to Kong Ling.
Seeing that these five people completely ignored him, Shi Tian's expression changed slightly, but in just a moment, he turned his attention to Ye Ru, as if he was about to attack Ye Ru.
"That idiot, knowing full well that it's a battle between humans and demons, still managed to do something so foolish. He's incredibly audacious. After this literary gathering, I must personally go to the Shi family and ask them about it."
Xie Ming was somewhat angry when he saw Shi Tian's behavior.
"Don't panic, let's see what happens."
Shi Tianze frowned and said.
In the arena, Shi Tian's attack was also aimed at Ye Ru. The sound transformed into volcanic rocks and attacked Ye Ru. This scene made Ye Ru's expression turn somewhat ugly.
"Brother Kong, please help me out. Our score is currently lower than that of the three Yan brothers. You have to help me stall for a while, otherwise, we'll probably drop at least five places in the rankings this time."
"Okay, I see."
Kong Ling nodded, then took a deep breath and immediately used his signature piece: "High Mountain Ceases".
This piece of music is derived from the sacred saying "High mountains are to be looked up to, and virtuous conduct is to be followed," and it possesses extremely powerful defensive capabilities.
The music transformed into two shields, firmly enveloping everyone. Ye Ru slowly withdrew his music, replacing it with a murderous melody.
The music continued to spread, carrying an extremely powerful killing intent, causing everyone's expressions to change drastically!
This is called "Ambush from Ten Sides"!
