Chapter 189: Marchioness Yi! (1/2)

“Gongzi, we’ll have to send you off at this point!”

Around several li later, Li Zhuxin and Miyasame Ayaka suddenly stopped. Their complexion didn’t look too well.

Li Zhuxin was still fine but Miyasame Ayaka’s face was already ghastly pale.

“There are too many experts on the mountain. Putting aside the True Martial realm martial artists, there are quite a few Profound Martial realm experts as well. Ayaka and I will be seeing you off here.”

The cultivation of the duo was far higher than Wang Chong, Wei Hao, Zhao Jingdian, and the others, and thus, they could sense the pressure from those experts on the mountain far more acutely than them. On top of that, the pressure seemed to be focused on them. They could clearly sense the dense hostility coming from the innumerable experts around the Kunwu Training Camp.

All this left Li Zhuxin and Miyasame Ayaka in great discomfort.

“Huh? Why can’t I sense anything at all?”

Wei Hao looked around in bewilderment.

“It’s fine, the two of you should return first then.”

Wang Chong raised a hand to stop Wei Hao before waving his hands and dismissing the duo. Their words had reminded Wang Chong of something.

The Three Great Training Camps were intentionally to prevent the various trainees from bringing their personal bodyguards or servants to the training grounds. For this purpose, experts were stationed around the various camps, and they could easily determine whether one was a trainee or a servant even from afar.

Without a doubt, the pressure that Li Zhuxin and Miyasame Ayaka felt must have come from them.

Given how the other party was able to synchronise the auras of all the Imperial Army members in the vicinity to exert a mountain-like pressure on any uninvited guest, Wang Chong was sure that there were experts of the royal family among them.

With experts of such caliber standing guard, it was completely impossible for Li Zhuxin and Miyasame Ayaka to enter.

“Miyasame Ayaka, help me look after my cousin. Get rid of anyone who wishes to do him harm from the shadows and escort him all the way to the ocean.”

“Mister Li, take care of Zhang Munian for me.”

Since Wang Chong wouldn’t require the help of these two top-notch experts for the time being, he decided to dispatch them for other purposes.

“Yes, gongzi.”

The duo hurriedly turned around and left along with Shen Hai, Meng Long, and the rest of the guards, leaving behind only Wang Chong, Zhao Jingdian, Wei Hao, and the other scions.

Several massive tents were erected at the foot of the mountain, and at the top of each individual tent, a military flag with the word ‘Kunwu’ written on it fluttered in the wind. On this aspect, Kunwu Training Camp didn’t seem any different from an ordinary military barrack.

Flashing their qualification tokens, Wang Chong, Wei Hao, Zhao Jingdian, and the other scions managed to get past the sentry without any problems and they began heading up the mountain.

The mountain chosen for Kunwu Training Camp was the highest one within a radius of a hundred li. Walking on this immense mountain, one couldn’t help but feel as insignificant as an ant.

Tents were erected in all around the mountain from the foot to the top, and stationed around these tents were powerful black-armored guards.

There were already many people on the mountain by the time Wang Chong and the group was proceeding up the mountain with their mount in hand

“That’s weird. Why are there so many scions and nobles here?”

Taking a glance around, Wang Chong muttered with a frown.

The members of Kunwu Training Camp should comprise mainly civilians but for some reason, Wang Chong found a significant number of scions among the mix. Dressed in silk robes, it was clear that they came from affluent clans with a single glance.

On top of that, there was quite a number of them.

Most of the scions and nobles should have been at Shenwei and Longwei Training Camp. Why were they appearing here instead? Could this be a result of his intervention?

Wang Chong was bewildered.

The scions behind Wei Hao looked at one another hesitantly. There was a bizarre expression on their faces.

“Gongzi, do you really not know?”

One of the scions finally asked.

“Know what?”

Wang Chong was even more intrigued now. The situation in Kunwu Training Camp was very different from how he remembered it to be. Kunwu Training Camp was a significant chain in his plans so he had to view this aberrance with utmost importance.

Wang Chong was just asking this question casually, not expecting anyone to reply it at all. Yet, Wei Hao’s followers seemed to know the answer to his doubts.

“Hahaha, Wang Chong, it seems like you’re indeed uninformed. Let me ask you then. Of the Three Great Training Camps, Shenwei, Longwei, and Kunwu, which one is the most popular?”

Upon hearing Wang Chong’s doubt, Wei Hao couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Of course it’s Shenwei and Longwei, is there even any doubt about it?”

Wang Chong answered without any hesitation.

“Hahaha, you’re indeed unaware of it. Let me tell you then, the most popular camp right now isn’t Shenwei or Longwei, but Kunwu!”

“How can that be?”

Wang Chong was completely dumbfounded. What was this situation? However, Wei Hao didn’t seem like he was joking with him, and this only left Wang Chong even more baffled.

“Why?”

Wang Chong asked. Could it be that the path of this world had changed from the moment he leaped back in time?

“Gongzi, are you truly unaware of it? It’s all because of you!”

A scion finally couldn’t hold himself back anymore.

“Because of me?”
