Chapter 844 The Seventh Pir of the Nation


    War God Castle was the leader of the entire Chinese martial arts scene.


    There were a total of six council members at War God Castle.


    All six of them were given the title of supreme grandmasters.


    Only the best grandmasters were awarded the title.


    Highly respectable grandmasters with skills beyond that of their peers who made a major contribution


    to the martial arts circles could be conferred the title of supreme grandmaster.


    Since it was extremely hard to attain the title, it was one of the highest honors in this circle.


    Supreme grandmasters were all internationally renowned.


    For 100 years, there were only six supreme grandmasters in China, and they were these War God


    Castle council members here.


    They were the pirs of the nation and were known as the six legendary generals.


    All these years, they had defended the country against threats from the martial arts world.


    Even though there were six of them in War God Castle, very few council members chose to reside on


    Mount Yan. Only the King of Fighters, Sword Saint, and Heavenly Grandmaster resided there.


    The other three supreme grandmasters rarely turned up unless there was a major martial arts incident.


    Hence, the King of Fighters and Sword Saint were instantly surprised to see that the God of War, Ye


    Qing-Tian, was here.


    Ye Qing-Tian waved his hand. "I''ll pass on the tea."


    "I''m here because I have something to ask you. Oh yes. Where is Heavenly Grandmaster, Tang Hao?


    Why don''t I see him around?" asked Ye Qing-Tian quizzically.


    In theory, the three resident council members would not leave Mount Yan unless they had something


    important to attend to.


    The King of Fighters smiled. "Him? He locked himself up to cultivate his martial arts a few days ago. I


    reckon his cultivation level has improved again.


    "I see." Ye Qing-Tian nodded and didn''t go on asking.


    Instead, he turned to the King of Fighters and Sword Saint. "I''m sure you must have caught wind of


    Mochizuki Kawa''s duel with a young man from Jiangdong, right?”


    "It''s such a tiny matter. How did you know? Did the old geezer, Lu Tian-He, run to you for help?" The


    King of Fighters frowned and was clearly displeased.


    He made it clear that War God Castle wouldn''t interfere and help nobodies like him. Did those old


    geezers beg the God of War instead after he rejected them?


    Sword Saint found it strange too. "Qing-Tian, don''t tell me you went to Jiangdong to fight Mochizuki


    Kawa and saved the kid?"


    The King of Fighters looked over and waited for the God of War to reply.


    The God of War shook his head. "No, I didn''t. Mochizuki Kawa had already left by the time I learned


    about it.


    "Great. The War God Castle looks after the big picture. Tiny matters like that aren''t worthy of your time.


    Since he''s just a nobody, it doesn''t matter if Mochizuki Kawa kills him. He provoked a powerful


    opponent when his skills weren''t good enough, so he deserves to die. It''s no point for us to interfere,"


    said Mo Gu-Cheng, the King of Fighters, casually as he made God of War some tea.


    If the God of War didn''t bring it up, the King of Fighters and Sword Saint would have almost forgotten


    about it.


    They didn''t take the matter to heart at the get-go.


    After all, it was no fun watching a boring fight.


    The King of Fighters didn''t care about the fight at all, but he could already guess its oue.


    Mochizuki Kawa was one of the top ten Japanese fighters. At his prime, he could even exchange some


    moves with Sword Saint.


    Although he was old and past his prime, it was unlikely that a rookie could surpass him.


    So the King of Fighters assumed that Ye Fan would die during the duel.


    Also, the King of Fighters and Sword Saint thought the youth had perished as expected when God of


    War said Mochizuki Kawa had left China.


    But the God of War was shocked by this response from them.


    He raised his head and looked at the King of Fighters and Sword Saint in shock. "Do you two really not


    know what happened?"


    God of War was starting to make them confused.


    They looked at God of War quizzically, "God of War, what do you mean? What do we not know?"


    God of War said deeply, "I''m talking about the duel at Dongchang Lake, of course. It has made such a


    Kawa resoundingly with a punch, a kick, and a palm move! In the end, Mochizuki Kawa was gravely


    wounded and fled back to Japan. That young man from Jiangdong has now made a name for himself.


    Some people even think that he will be the seventh pir of the nation! Do you really know


    nothing about it?"


    Although God of War spoke softly, they could faintly sense some anger in his words.


    After all, how could the highest authority of martial arts in China know nothing


    about it?


    Had they remained in their lofty positions for so long that they had lost touch with society?


    The King of Fighters and Sword Saint were instantly stunned to hear these words.


    The King of Fighters opened his eyes wide. The teacup in his hand hastily swayed, and some tea


    spilled out.


    Sword Saint swiftly raised his head in disbelief.


    "What...what...what did you say? Did that boy win? Did Mochizuki Kawa retreat because he was


    critically injured? How is that possible?"


    The King of Fighters almost pissed in his pants.


    After staying in power for so long, he had seen his fair share of upheavals.


    However, he was incapable of stayingposed now as he opened his eyes wide. He was so shocked


    he almost wanted to swear.


    "I heard the young man from Jiangdong is only in his 20s and even younger than you when you fought


    Mochizuki Kawa. How can a boy defeat a supreme grandmaster? Or has Mochizuki Kawa''s skills


    deteriorated so much that he can''t handle a kid?"

    The King of Fighters shook his head nonstop. He found it inconceivable for a young man to defeat a


    supreme grandmaster.


    Sword Saint looked at the God of War quizzically, "Qing-Tian, are you sure you heard it right?”


    The God of War replied deeply, "Yes, it was pretty inconceivable, so I came to ask you about it. It


    appears you are no better than me. But you guys better figure out what''s going on. Sure, it wouldn''t


    matter if these were just rumors. However, the kid has incredible talent if this is true. In the future, his


    aplishments might rival mine. I suggest that we invite him to join War God Castle and make him


    supreme grandmaster and make him the seventh supreme grandmaster of the country! War God


    Castle hasn''t had any new blood in 100 years. It''s time for things to change."


    His deep voice echoed through the air.


    The other two were still dumbstruck. The news that the God of War had just told them was clearly too


    sensational.


    Finally, Sword Saint said, "Okay, God of War. We will follow up closely. The kid from Jiangdong will be


    investigated immediately. However, I suggest that we be more careful about giving him the title. Even if


    he defeated Mochizuki Kawa, it isn''t enough for him to join War God Castle and be the seventh


    supreme grandmaster. Or else, Gu-Cheng''s son, Wu-Ya, would have already gotten the title.”
