Chapter 1239: The Legendary Sword Mikazuki Munechika
As soon as Chisaki Baiyu spoke, it immediately ignited the entire venue.
It goes without saying how strong Chisaki Baiyu is, and now her master has actually arrived.
In fact, Cui Ye Zheng has always been an extremely famous figure in Dongyin.
Because he is known as the Martial God!
The Martial God, the Divine among the Martial Way!
Just this title alone lets you know that he is definitely not a simple character.
"Oh my, it's the Martial God!"
"Huaxia people, you're doomed!"
Upon hearing that the person entering was Cui Ye Zheng, the Dongyin crowd became excited once again.
Although many have not seen Cui Ye Zheng, a person who can be called the Martial God is surely no ordinary person, right?
The Huaxia audience's eyes became somewhat anxious, it seems the person coming up next is definitely a very powerful presence. No one knows if this incredibly youthful contestant can win.
If he can't win, these Dongyin people will become arrogant again.
If Wang Dadong is defeated, can someone even stronger from Huaxia stand up?
Under everyone's expectant gaze, a hunched figure, bent over with slightly graying hair, slowly appeared on the stage.
People were somewhat dumbfounded.
Especially the Dongyin people who originally thought that the Martial God would surely be a tall, burly, and impressively handsome existence, but were surprised that it was a bent, old man.
This truly drops the eyes.
In fact, they just overthought it.
There's a saying that makes a lot of sense, when God closes a door for you, he surely opens a window.
Similarly, when God opens a window for you, he surely closes a door.
Not all strong people can be as handsome as Brother Dong.
It should be said that in this world, most of the strong ones are often not very attractive.
Because only those who are not attractive will work harder than others, thereby achieving greater accomplishments.
The old man didn't care at all about others' opinions of him; appearance is the most useless thing in this world.
Once people witness his strength, they will surely worship him in awe.
He's long been accustomed to such situations. In Dongyin, whenever people hear of his Martial God name, countless young girls and mature beauties would flock towards him.
The little old man wore wooden clogs and carried a katana on his back, appearing very ordinary, but Wang Dadong didn't have the slightest contempt.
Being a master of Slaying Saints is definitely not to be underestimated.
"I am Cui Ye Zheng, my blade is Mikazuki Munechika, reveal your weapon," the little old man said indifferent to Wang Dadong, taking down the katana from his back like a treasure.
Upon hearing Cui Ye Zheng reveal the name of the sword, Wang Dadong's brow furrowed slightly; he had heard of that sword's name.
Mikazuki Munechika is one of the five most powerful katanas in Dongyin, its blade length is 80cm, the standard length of a tachi. Near the handle, the blade curves significantly, and the width of the blade near the base is wide, tapering drastically closer to the tip.
It is said to be the work of Sanjo Munechika, a craftsman from the Heian Period. The name "Mikazuki" comes from crescent-shaped patterns along the blade's edge, renowned as the most beautiful among the world's five greatest swords.
Wang Dadong's expression became more solemn, to be able to carry a national treasure proves his extremely high status in Dongyin Country.
And Dongyin Country is a warlike nation, where strength reigns supreme; Cui Ye Zheng being able to possess Mikazuki Munechika means his prowess is certainly formidable.
Wang Dadong nodded, since the opponent had revealed his weapon, he couldn't act too pretentious. He immediately took out the Broken Sword Hongling.
"Broken sword? Does Huaxia Country not have a decent blade?" Cui Ye Zheng frowned upon seeing.
Being known as Dongyin God of War, fighting Wang Dadong with a broken sword felt like an insult to him.
"What? Look down on my sword? My sword is enough to defeat you!" Wang Dadong said slowly and deliberately, clearly irritated by Cui Ye Zheng's expression.
This sword was the personal blade of the Piano Emperor, and back then, with the Red Bane in hand, the Piano Emperor instilled fear in countless masters.
This sword was once praised as the Emperor's Blade, meaning the king among weapons.
Even though it's broken now, it can't be underestimated by anyone.
My sword is enough to defeat you!
Such arrogance and dominance.
A broken sword, to claim it can defeat Mikazuki Munechika, one of the five famous swords, definitely not something an average person can say.
"Kill him, kill this arrogant brat."
"Dare to disdain the Martial God; Martial God, you must beat him till he searches for teeth on the ground!"
Wang Dadong's arrogant words immediately stirred dissatisfaction among the Dongyin people.
"Humph, boy, I see you're young, didn't expect you to have such a big mouth." Cui Ye Zheng sneered as he spoke.
He certainly knew Wang Dadong's strength; Chisaki Baiyu had already informed him that Wang Dadong was a Slaying Saints.
But so what about Slaying Saints?
He's the master of Slaying Saints, would he fear a Slaying Saints?
"Whether I have a big mouth, you'll know when you try," Wang Dadong said calmly.
"Fine, if Cui Ye Zheng loses here today, I'll commit seppuku publicly to apologize to the Emperor!" Cui Ye Zheng said coldly.
"Mr. Cui Ye Zheng, this match aims to promote friendship between Dongyin and Huaxia. Isn't that going too far?" Long Qiuyu said with a slight change in expression.
If Cui Ye Zheng really committed seppuku in Huaxia, it would worsen the relationship between Dongyin and Huaxia. The friendship match today would lose its meaning entirely.
"Why? Do you think I'll lose to a boy?" Cui Ye Zheng glanced disdainfully at Long Qiuyu.
"Of course not..."
"Since I won't lose, why worry about what I'd do after failing?" Cui Ye Zheng chuckled.
"This..." Long Qiuyu was rendered speechless.
Though she knew Wang Dadong as the infamous Death Knell in the Mercenary World, this Cui Ye Zheng is no small figure either, and she couldn't guarantee Wang Dadong would win.
"Old man, your wager is quite big, how about this: if you lose, just give me your sword," Wang Dadong proposed.
He had heard plenty about the fame of Mikazuki Munechika, surely an ancient weapon. Naturally, Wang Dadong wants as many ancient weapons as he can get.
Cui Ye Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and scoffed: "Boy, if you can beat me, you can have my sword. But if you lose?"
"If I lose, I will commit seppuku right here, how about that?" Wang Dadong said with a smile.
"Wang Dadong, you're crazy!" Upon hearing Wang Dadong's words, Long Qiuyu was the first to exclaim.
