Chapter 13 A Heroine Among Women! The True Meaning of the Divine Shot!
next day!
Yidu Prefectural Government Office!
The current headquarters of the World Society!
Yelü Chucai ordered the renovation and construction of a triple stone wall, with a large blue stone hall in the center, and the words "Tianxia Hui" (World Society) written in gold powder on the lintel.
A tall banner, three zhang high, stood in front of the hall. It was black with red trim and embroidered with a golden crow with its head held high and wings outstretched.
Under the Golden Crow banner, Yang Kang looked at the girl in red and charged forward again, spear in hand.
"The young prince has founded the World Society, seeking to recruit heroes from all over the land. I wonder if this humble woman could be considered among these heroes?"
Yang Miaozhen stood proudly atop her famous horse, Golden Crow, her spear held high, her gaze sharp as torches, and her eyes held a fierce fighting spirit as she looked at Yang Kang.
"If the Fourth Lady of the Pear Blossom Spear were not a hero of the world, few would dare to claim such a title!"
"Now that I am no longer a Jurchen, Fourth Sister, you no longer need to call me Little Prince!"
"I wonder if Fourth Sister has come today to join my World Alliance, or to assess whether I am qualified to gather heroes from all over the world."
Yang Kang turned to look at Yang Miaozhen, who stood proudly on her horse, and no matter how he looked at her, he didn't think she was there to seek refuge with him.
"I have been practicing martial arts since I was seven years old, and now I have been practicing for more than fifteen years. I believe that in the martial arts world, apart from the elusive Eastern Heretic, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, and Northern Beggar, I am invincible."
"Even those few, we'll only know the winner after we fight them!"
"Who would have thought that at the beginning of the year, in the hands of the young prince, they were like children, utterly powerless to resist!"
"I have never suffered such a crushing defeat in my life. In my utter despair, I almost considered retiring from the martial arts world!"
"Unexpectedly, by the grace of Heaven, Miaozhen has made further progress in her spear skills over the past few months."
"I believe that among all the people under heaven, none other than the young prince can truly appreciate the beauty of my pear blossom spear!"
"Young Prince, you have lofty ambitions and wish to unite the heroes of the world through the World Gathering. I wonder if you are qualified to be the leader of this group of heroes?"
Yang Miaozhen pointed her spear at Yang Kang, who was standing on his horse. Her expression and posture were even more arrogant than Yang Kang's yesterday in front of Yizhou Prefecture.
"Fourth Sister's spear skills are unparalleled in my life; such divine skill has even improved!"
"Such spear skills—how many martial artists in the world wouldn't want to witness them!"
"please!"
Yang Kang raised an eyebrow slightly, also very interested. In terms of moves, Yang Miaozhen was indeed the most terrifying person he had ever seen, and now she actually said that she had taken another step forward.
Yang An'er and the other two stared in disbelief at everything before them, their bodies drenched in cold sweat.
"Miaozhen, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Yang An'er swallowed hard and immediately shouted at him.
At this moment, Yang Kang and Yang Miaozhen seemed to have only each other in their eyes, unable to see or hear anyone else.
After exchanging glances for a few moments, the two flew together towards the training ground not far away.
"What an extraordinary woman! This is the first time I've encountered someone so arrogant in front of Kang'er on my journey."
"Below the Eastern Heretic, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, and Northern Beggar, there are no equals!"
"What arrogance!"
"I am quite curious about this woman's martial arts skills!"
Wang Chuyi, standing to the side, spoke with great interest.
The crowd was buzzing with discussion. Yang Tiexin, supporting his wife, was only interested in the girl's superb spear skills that Yang Kang had mentioned. He secretly thought to himself that it was time to pass on the Yang family spear technique to his son.
Among the crowd, only Mu Nianci had a face full of melancholy.
On the training ground!
Yang Kang and Yang Miaozhen each stood holding a gun.
There were no superfluous formalities, no ambiguous relationships between men and women, only pure appreciation and high fighting spirit among martial artists.
For months, Yang Miaozhen had been fighting Yang Kang in her dreams every moment. Now, she could no longer suppress her desire and used her spear, Azure Dragon Emerging from the Sea, to kill Yang Kang.
She doesn't need to wait for anyone to slip up; her gun will create everything that's needed.
Yang Kang frowned slightly. He did sense something different about the other person, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Before the two spears clashed, Yang Kang instinctively needed to restrain his strength, but then he saw the spear suddenly disappear, as if in a frame skip, instantly passing by his spear and heading straight for Yang Kang's face.
Almost simultaneously, Yang Kang's double pupils flashed, and he immediately retaliated, blocking the shot.
But this strange yet stunning spear strike seemed to be just the beginning. As Yang Kang blocked the first spear, Yang Miaozhen's figure seemed to transform into a proud dragon from outer space, gracefully moving around him, her spear thrusting out from time to time.
Each shot was an angle from which Yang Kang had no way to dodge, and he could only barely defend himself by relying on the mysterious perception brought by his double pupils.
However, Yang Kang's counterattacks seemed to hit phantoms, failing to harm his opponent in the slightest.
Yang Kang felt increasingly frustrated as he fought, and without realizing it, he gradually forgot to restrain his strength.
The terrifying power of the Overlord, amplified by the eighth level of the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique," was wreaking havoc on the training ground.
The flying debris forced the onlookers to dodge to avoid being injured. Only Wang Chuyi, Yang Tiexin, Yang An'er, and a few others were able to watch the battle from the sidelines.
"Such incredible marksmanship exists in the whole world!"
"Where did Kang'er learn such ferocious martial arts?!"
Yang Tiexin said in horror.
"Such marksmanship is beyond my reach!"
"Perhaps only Yue Fei, a hundred years ago, possessed such skill in spear fighting!"
"This is simply unbelievable!!!"
"And what exactly did Senior Brother teach Kang'er about martial arts???"
Wang Chu was half in awe and half puzzled.
The battle between the two subtly stirred up a swirling whirlwind. Amidst the storm, a faint red light flashed across Yang Kang's body, a sign of his long-stagnant "Nine Yang Divine Skill" breaking through and his true energy dissipating.
But even the storm stirred up by Yang Kang, the resurrected overlord, like a savage beast, could not subdue the dragon swimming in the wind.
No matter how Yang Kang tried to block off every corner, Yang Miaozhen's spear still pierced through the gale and reached Yang Kang.
Just when Yang Miaozhen thought victory was assured, Yang Kang suddenly roared, his body blazing with red light, and a surge of powerful true energy erupted, instantly disrupting Yang Miaozhen's movements.
At the same time, Yang Kang's double pupils caught sight of the other person, and his hand, like an iron clamp, instantly grabbed Yang Miaozhen's pear blossom spear.
Yang Miaozhen immediately let go, and the spear was instantly flung away by Yang Kang, landing in front of the Tianxia Society's gate in the distance.
"I lost!!!"
"I still lost!!!"
Yang Miaozhen looked at her empty hands and said incredulously.
She hadn't expected that despite making such progress, she was still one step behind her opponent.
"You didn't lose!!"
"If you had even twenty percent of my internal energy right now, you could kill me within ten moves!"
"In just a few months, Fourth Sister's marksmanship has improved so much; she is truly a prodigy!!"
Yang Kang withdrew his true energy, his eyes filled with solemnity and admiration.
"A loss is a loss, and the loser has no right to make excuses!"
"The young prince is indeed qualified to be the leader of all heroes under heaven; Yang Miaozhen is truly convinced!!"
"Miaozhen is willing to be the spear in the young prince's hand, sweeping away all enemies in the world for him!"
Yang Miaozhen took a deep breath, knelt on one knee, and bowed to the emperor.
Yang Kang remained silent for a moment, but his mind was still recalling Yang Miaozhen's marksmanship just now.
I still can't see through it!
Each of those spears aimed at him didn't seem like some mysterious technique, but rather something that was bound to happen.
It was something he was destined to be unable to dodge when it was aimed at him.
"How can there be such marksmanship in the world?"
"Could this be what they call the intent of the gun?!"
"meaning!!!"
"It has such an amazing and wonderful use!!!"
Yang Kang was filled with doubts, and even a little bit of apprehension.
"You didn't lose to me, but to the creator of the martial arts I learned."
"With such a heroine as Fourth Sister as his ally, Yang Kang is like a fish in water!"
Pride, born of the soul, ultimately triumphed over fear, born of ambition. Yang Kang sincerely helped Yang Miaozhen up and spoke loudly to the crowd.
The onlookers were already impressed by the two fighters' skills, while the soldiers in the distance were shocked by the terrifying sight of flying sand and stones.
In an instant, countless people began to shout the names of the young prince and the fourth lady.
The strong always deserve preferential treatment, regardless of whether they are male or female.
With her spear, Yang Miaozhen became the undisputed second-best fighter in the World Society.
With her around, Yang Kang was happy to naturally bring the three Red Coat Army soldiers back under his command.
Within a few days, the Shandong region, which had been rife with undercurrents, returned to the state it was in before Yang Kang returned to Zhongdu.
The news that the young prince, the reincarnation of the Overlord, had restored his Han identity and established the World Society to recruit heroes quickly spread throughout the Jin Kingdom.
Countless martial arts heroes dissatisfied with Jurchen rule, and powerful figures from various regions who were alienated from Zhongdu, gradually turned their attention to Yizhou Prefecture.
