On the third day…

The last round was a hand-to-hand discussion.

The Northern Shang had sent the teacher of the Confucian Sect’s Eight Wonders, the white-haired old man who had once subdued the Great Wonders and used the Water-Calming Droplet to conquer the Imperial Capital and then Hengjiang City.

There was no doubt that Xia Ji was the only one who could make an appearance for the Great Zhou.

This round was a competition of strategic understanding, chess skills, and game mentality.

The mountain peak was shrouded in clouds and mist, and the two people sitting by the stone playing chess could be vaguely seen.

However, compared to the previous two battles, no one could watch this battle at all. They couldn’t even get close.

He could only vaguely see the two figures sitting quietly, playing a game that would determine the direction of the world.

The two people playing chess placed their pieces very quickly at first.

However, the further he went, the slower he placed his pieces.

Sometimes, it would take an hour, or even an hour, for a piece.

However, no one urged or spoke. While one person was thinking about how to place his piece, the other person quietly closed his eyes and waited.

Three days and three nights later.

The conversation ended.

The old man from the Confucian Sect sighed tiredly, then his expression returned to normal. He stood up and bowed slightly to the seated figure. According to his age, he must be older than the teacher in front of him.

Only those who have reached the top can be teachers.

The Headmaster was not only an enlightened person, but also a saint.

Moreover, such a Saint might not have a long lifespan.

He knew very well how good he was at chess. Before today, although he was humble, he always thought that he was invincible.

But today, he was defeated.

The Headmaster of the Academy was powerful. After experiencing all kinds of killings, he was more powerful than him.

The Confucian Sect elder knew how tired he was. This was more tiring than personally experiencing ten battles.

The Headmaster would not be better off than him, not to mention that he had just lost ten years of his lifespan a few days ago.

This round…

He would probably lose a lot of his lifespan again.

The Confucian Sect elder looked at the man in front of him…

Like him, he had a head full of white hair.

The Confucian Sect elder couldn’t help but sit back down, a strange feeling in his heart.

This should be the first time he met the Headmaster, and probably the last time. When he walked down the mountain to announce the result, this scene was destined to be recorded in the history books. It would also become a wonderful story after the storyteller hit the gavel, or an allusion that could be used by scholars and talented women when they recited poems.

This was why the old man had sat down again. He wanted to savor this moment in the river of history.

The Confucian Sect elder suddenly took out a blue-and-white porcelain cup.

He took out a small tea jar and poured some tea leaves into the cup.

Every time a star was shaken off, it was as if it was taking his life.

The Confucian Sect elder raised his left hand and curled it slightly. The blue pearl that had once destroyed countless lives floated above his fingers, and then extremely pure water flowed out of it toward the teacup.

The old man held the gurgling water in his right hand. The water had already boiled in the air. When it fell into the teacup, it was already boiling. The fragrance of tea wafted into the air, refreshing one’s heart.

The tea was finished.

The old man placed his hands in front of Xia Ji and said, ‘”‘Teacher, please have some tea.”

Xia Ji accepted it without hesitation and sniffed it gently. Just a sniff was enough to make him feel much more refreshed and relaxed.

I, Yan Xun, have seen many people in my life, ” the old man said. ” This is the first time I’ve seen someone like the Headmaster. I’m afraid we won’t be able to meet again after today.

“Mr. Yan, you should go north too, right?” Xia Ji asked.

“Naturally,” Yan Xun replied.

The two of them fell silent.

“Why did you come here, Master?” Yan Xun asked suddenly. Could it be that you have no selfish motives?”

Xia Ji smiled and shook his head.

Yan Xun also suddenly came to a realization, she clapped her hands and smiled, “I’m at a disadvantage. Haha, Yan Xun admires the Master’s magnanimity. Yan Xun has read the books written by the Headmaster and learned the things in them. Now that I am leaving, I will call the Headmaster Teacher.”

With that, the Confucian Sect’s      Wonders teacher stood up and bowed slightly.

Xia Ji accepted it calmly.

Yan Xun laughed and stepped down the mountain.

When everyone saw him coming down, they hurriedly went up and asked,”Who won?”

Yan Xun fell silent.

Since the Headmaster of the Academy has used his entire life to save this world, why don’t I, Yan Xun, add more bricks and tiles for you and build you up into the vast sky?Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.nᴇt

Therefore, he didn’t mention anything about winning half a child. He stroked his white beard and said loudly, How can a man compete with the heavens?

How can I dare to compete with the Headmaster? ”

After saying that, he laughed loudly and walked forward.

Everyone was stunned.

This gamble between the north and the south, this brutal war that had lasted for seven years, finally came to an end in this final showdown that did not involve bloodshed.

Xia Ji stood at the highest point of the mountain peak.

He did not feel any pride or glory.

He only stretched his body and sat in the clouds, feeling an indescribable loneliness in his heart.

As soon as he felt lonely, the sound of footsteps could be heard on the mountain path.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer.

An elf-like figure rushed to the top of the mountain.

When he was feeling lonely, she jumped in front of him.

“Feng Nanbei!” Lu Miaomiao shouted.

Xia Ji turned his head. He saw the same look in the little girl’s eyes. She met his gaze and burst out laughing. He didn’t know what she was laughing about. However, this inexplicable smile was like the warm sun melting the ice and snow.

Lu Miaomiao jumped behind him and hugged him from behind.”You’re really amazing…l suddenly regret it.. “
