Chapter 447 The Statue of the Sage of History
Seeing this scene, Shi Hao's expression became even more solemn. He stared at the rapidly falling branch of the sacred path tree, and finally gritted his teeth, directly advancing from a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the county-level imperial examination) to a Juren (a scholar who passed the provincial-level imperial examination).
The powerful talent seemed to have been suppressed, and it swept out in all directions like a tornado. As the talent swept out, many people's expressions changed drastically in an instant.
"He's actually a scholar who passed the imperial examination?!"
Sensing that powerful talent, Qian Wensong and the others' expressions changed, and some even exclaimed in surprise.
"Looks like... it's going to be tough for us to win. How could this guy be so shameless!"
Seeing this, a flash of anger appeared in Qian Wensong's eyes, and then he said resentfully.
Now that Shi Hao has fully revealed his strength, their hearts have gradually calmed down.
"Just as I thought."
The branches and vines behind Ye Ru slammed into Shi Hao, but the latter emitted a bright green light, which directly deflected the branches.
Boom!
Seeing this, Ye Ru stepped back and stood ten steps away from Shi Hao. He stared at the latter and took a deep breath.
The next moment, the Simu Rong Cauldron swept out again, carrying powerful force and raging flames, and directly blasted towards Shi Hao.
Facing Ye Ru's attack, Shi Hao sneered, showing no sign of backing down. He stared at the encroaching flames and said in a deep voice:
"Next, I'll show you just how remarkable the talents of our Shi family are!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden token shot out from between his eyebrows, then swelled in the wind and finally transformed into a large shield. The flames rushed towards the shield, but to everyone's astonishment, they were absorbed by the shield and bounced back a second later.
"The Purple Holy Page"
With a flick of his sleeve, Ye Ru suddenly produced ten sacred pages, which swelled in the wind and finally suppressed Shi Hao.
boom!
Although Shi Hao is now a Juren (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), he is no match for such a powerful purple holy page. One of the holy pages, like a boulder, directly slammed into the sturdy shield.
boom!
The large shield was connected to Shi Hao's body, causing him a sharp pain. Ten holy pages bombarded the shield one after another, finally causing it to shatter under the damage.
As the shield shattered, a powerful force, like a tidal wave, poured directly into Shi Hao's body.
Faced with such a heavy blow, Shi Hao was sent flying backward and crashed into the ground. The powerful force caused several cracks to appear in the ground.
Upon seeing this scene, countless people fell silent, their gazes fixed on Ye Ru, then wavering between Ye Ru and Shi Hao.
Seemingly sensing that Shi Hao was no longer able to fight, the Qian family members cheered.
"Won!"
The sound resounded, and the faces of the Sima family members turned extremely ugly. After all, they had never expected that a member of the Shi Sheng family would be no match for an unknown junior.
However, while the Qian family was excited, Ye Ru was not very happy. He looked at the fallen Shi Hao and a sense of unease welled up inside him.
Shi Hao slowly got up from the ground, his eyes gleaming with a cold light. He looked at Ye Ru not far away, cracked his neck, and said in a cold voice:
"You're probably no ordinary person. To travel all the way from the Yanhuang Kingdom to get here, your talent must far surpass that of others. However, no matter how strong you are, your path has come to an end."
As the voice faded, Shi Hao closed his eyes, and his talent surged forth once more. Then, a human-shaped statue appeared in his hand, holding a writing brush in one hand and a history book in the other, as if it were recording something.
This is…"
Zhang Dong stared at the statue holding a writing brush and a history book with extreme shock on his aged face. He could feel a suppressed power emanating from it.
"Statue of the Sage of History?"
Qian Wensong, who was standing to the side, paused for a moment as if he had thought of something, and then exclaimed.
"What is that?"
The Star Ape King's gaze was somewhat solemn. He did not sense any particularly powerful talent or energy within the statue of the Saint of History; all he could feel was a dense power of the Holy Path.
"You may not know this, but this statue of the Sage of History is a replica of the statue of the Sage of History in the Sage of History family. Although it is not as powerful as the statue of the Sage of History, it still possesses something extremely powerful."
Before Qian Wensong could finish speaking, the middle-aged man surnamed Qian next to him spoke up.
"This kind of statue of the Holy Sage is very powerful, but it also has a certain backlash from the Holy Path. If it fails to defeat the enemy, it may cause a backlash itself."
"What do we do now? I feel like Ye Ru is not going to make it."
Qian Wensong took a deep breath. Ye Ru was able to hold his own against the opponent because the opponent's magical artifact was not as powerful as his. However, now that Shi Hao had taken out such a magical artifact, it made them quite worried.
"Phew, I'm afraid we're going to lose this time. The opponent has brought out such a powerful trump card. Ye Ru won't stand a chance against them even once. This one move will probably decide the outcome."
Taking a deep breath, Qian Wensong saw Shi Hao push the saint statue in his hand to its limit and sighed, a look of dejection on his face. He never expected that after preparing for so long, he would still fail at the last hurdle.
"This time, it's not the scholar's fault. The other party is too strong. The century-old family of saints is indeed a family of saints. Their resources are far beyond what we wealthy families can compare to."
The middle-aged man from the Qian family also looked dejected and said resentfully.
"we won."
Sima Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Shi Hao, who was brimming with talent, and said excitedly.
"As long as we win, those previous injuries are nothing. This inkstone can at least make our writing core stronger."
"Don't be too happy yet. Look at that young scholar. He doesn't show any panic on his face. Instead, he looks eager to try. What's going on?"
As Sima Yan's elder brother, Sima Xuan naturally had a keen eye for detail, and Ye Ru's behavior caught his attention.
"Could it be that the other side has some kind of plan?"
Seeing Sima Xuan's furrowed brows, Sima Yan's eyes widened, and he said.
"Let's wait and see how things develop. This competition is not that simple."
Upon hearing this, Sima Xuan said in a deep voice.
……
"I really don't know whether the power of the Holy Path in this statue of a saint is more domineering, or whether the power of the Holy Path in my ancient tree of the Holy Path is superior."
As the controller of the Sacred Ancient Tree, Ye Ru could naturally feel the power within this force, but he knew that no matter how concentrated the Sacred Power within the statue of the Sage was, it was utterly insignificant in front of his Sacred Ancient Tree!
