Chapter 042 – The Target this Time (2/2)
“So why are you afraid of fighting?” Tang Tian finished munching on the last piece of biscuit, turned, and looked at Ah Mo Li very seriously: “You practiced so hard, and cultivated so much to create your own Martial Dao. All Martial Daos were created for victory. What’s the meaning if you create a Martial Dao that doesn’t bring victory? Only when you fight can you achieve victory. Each victory is like a stepping stone, and with each victory, you are one step closer to your target. Your enemy is getting stronger, and to defeat them, your Martial Dao must get stronger and reach perfection.”
“Starting with tomorrow’s fight, defeat one enemy after another and don’t fear failure nor death. Never retreat!” Tang Tian said: “Let’s destroy all of them side by side with one another!”
Tang Tian raised his right palm.
The first ray of the sunlight peered through the forest and fell on the young lad’s palm.
Ah Mo Li was electrified. As if something had a breakthrough, he said seriously: “Fundamental Tang, you’re right! There is absolutely no meaning if I can’t create a Martial Dao that leads to victory!”
Slap!
The two palms clapped in midair.
“Destroy all of them!”
The two shouted in unison and laughed while looking at each other.

The security at the Starry Door was tight.
This Starry Door was situated in a karst cave amongst desolate mountain and valleys. They had re-expanded the karst cave and it was obvious that the work was done not too long ago, as the scars of the hatchet were still apparent.
In front of the Starry Door, many academies waited to enter.. Surprisingly, the City Lord had declined the suggestion for another application. But those who had applied and were chosen could form a team and fight with the other academies.
Tang Tian studied the Starry Door carefully, and suddenly noticed a striking similarity between the Cross Door of his, and the Starry Door before him. Other than the cross sign, there was not much difference.
Unless the light door was a Starry Door as well?!
But how could the Cross Door then be inside of his own body?
Okay… this question seemed a tad too complicated…
The first batch with the approval to enter the Starry Door was Crystal Sky Academy. The one leading the students was the Principal of Crystal Sky and Sima Xiang Shan, but the faces of everyone else were stern and solemn. The second batch was the Northern Yan Academy. Similarly, leading them was their Principal, but the pretty female students matched with swords looked so beautiful and graceful. It was truly a splendid sight.
Tang Tian could recognize Han Bing Ning right away and jumped and waved as he shouted: “Aha! Young Lady, Young Lady! Good luck!”
Han Bing Ning footsteps turned sluggish and the female students behind her lowered their head and giggled.
“Oh, is that Tang Tian?” the Principal who was standing right in front suddenly turned and asked.
Han Bing Ning returned to reality and replied quickly: “Yes, Principal.”
“Indeed, he is a talented young lad!” the Principal of Northern Yan complimented.
Talented young lad…
Han Bing Ning’s eyelid twitched.
“Yuan Yuan! All the best!”
Tang Tian’s shout rang once again. Han Bing Ning could almost imagine how Shen Yuan was itching to hide somewhere, and her expression became calm.
Truly, blissfulness was gained by competing…
When it was Andrew Academy, the crowd gasped for the first time.
“What a powerful Spirit General! What a powerful aura!”
“It must be a famous General Card!”
“Isolated Spirit Spear! Geez! It’s Isolated Spirit Spear!”
……
…
The shrilling scream travelled to ears. Zhou Peng had no ounce of ego. He stared angrily at Tang Tian. his eyes were filled with an intention to kill.
Tang Tian looked at Zhou Peng and saw him staring back at him. Right away, he had an idea and whispered something to Ah Mo Li. Ah Mo Li nodded and looked at Zhou Peng with ill intentions.
The two split up and stood facing one another.
The two started to make weird moves and immediately, it attracted the attention of the people around them.
Only to see Ah Mo Li started to mimic Zhou Peng. while pressing onto his throat, he said with a tone that sent chills down one’s spine: “Aiyoyo, isn’t this the Tyrant Tang of Andrew Academy? Why does he look so tired?”
Tang Tian then mimicked the same way, with a smirk: “Great, I never thought you would send yourself here!”
Tang Tian brought out his fists slowly as Ah Mo Li stared at him with his big eyes. He puffed up his cheeks as if he was using a hell lot of energy and pulled out his palm slowly.
The fist and palm touched each other lightly.
Ah Mo Li then suddenly held his palm and screamed in a voice that was even more shrilling: “I am going to kill you! I am going to kill you!”
At this time, his beastly stature imitated a scene where he started twisting, as if he was injured. It was terrifying.
The two directed and acted out the scene on their own. They could no longer take it anymore and started bursting into laughters. The people around them then realised they were re-enacting the conflict between Zhou Peng and Tang Tian. This news had already spread out. Unexpectedly, the two were actually re-enacting the day’s incident. Ah Mo Li’s acting was superb and many could not help but laugh.
Zhou Peng’s face was burning hot. His fist was clenched so tightly that his fingers were turning white. Those mocking gazes had humiliated him like never before.
Tang Tian! Ah Mo Li!
I want to turn your bones into ashes when you die and throw them away!
Pa!
Tang Tian and Ah Mo Li high-fived one another happily.
“You were so cheap when you acted it out!” Tang Tian pointed out a thumb.
“Thanks for the compliment.” Ah Mo Li bowed respectfully.
The two laughed and made Zhou Peng’s silhouette looked even more pathetic, even the Spirit General seemed to be dull and faded. Even the people of the Zhou Clan subconsciously distanced themselves from Zhou Peng. This move by Tang Tian and Ah Mo Li was truly too vicious.
After a long time, it was Caramel Academy’s turn.
“Let’s go in!” Old Fart Wei walked at the front, his face congealed. In his hand, he held onto a worn out and stained blade. It looked as if he found it from a garbage bin.
Tang Tian and Ah Mo Li followed tightly and stepped through the front gate.
