Gatekeeper Of All Realms Chapter 78

“…How can I change him back?” Shen Ye asked.

“Unless he’s completely exhausted and can no longer maintain the transformation,” Zhang Xiaoyi said.

Shen Ye looked at the wolf again — no, it should be a dog.

The dog was very energetic.

Although injured, the dog’s eyes revealed a chilling殺機, and it was looking at Shen Ye out of the corner of its eye.

This imposing manner…

“What kind of expression is that? It’s as if I’ve done something wrong,” Shen Ye couldn’t help but ask.

Zhang Xiaoyi covered his face, looking like he didn’t want to say it but had to.

His muffled voice came from behind his hands:

“He… after transforming, he calls himself Mr. Week.”

“Today is Wednesday – this is his day as a police dog. He fights crime and upholds justice.”

“What about Thursday?” Shen Ye asked.

“A guide dog.”

“Friday?” Xiao Mengyu asked.

“A performance dog.”

“Saturday?” Shen Ye became interested.

“A therapy dog – he has too many professions, one rotates each day, it’s not fixed,” Zhang Xiaoyi said.

“Impressive,” Shen Ye and Xiao Mengyu both exclaimed.

“This is called professional,” Shen Ye said, pointing at the dog.

“This is actually a talent, a very rare awakening. Even if he hadn’t gotten in, many key schools would still want him,” Xiao Mengyu explained seriously.

“But even if I team up with him, we still can’t beat that young master from the aristocratic family,” Zhang Xiaoyi said.

“Is he obedient?” Shen Ye asked.

“He’s a police dog today,” Zhang Xiaoyi said angrily. “Just now he wanted to fight to the death – if he were obedient, I would have run away with him already – I’m a very fast runner!”

He made a gesture to hug the dog.

The dog immediately bared its teeth at him, looking like it was about to pounce and bite.

Shen Ye was slightly startled and looked at Zhang Xiaoyi’s arm, seeing that it was full of bite marks.

He patted Zhang Xiaoyi’s shoulder and sighed:

“Ah Yi, you’re a true friend.”

Yes.

If Zhang Xiaoyi hadn’t cared about Guo Yunye, he could have completely run away by himself.

But he risked being bitten to escape with Guo Yunye, which showed great courage.

Then he looked at the dog.

The dog was also covered in wounds.

Perhaps they were caused by that young master from the aristocratic family.

“Something’s not right.”

Xiao Mengyu suddenly said.

“Indeed,” Shen Ye admitted.

—Logically, mutual attacks were not allowed in this trial.

Had the rules changed?

But these were exam rules, how could they suddenly change?

Shen Ye and Xiao Mengyu looked at each other, both a little confused.

The dog suddenly turned its head and snarled in one direction.

“That person is back again!”

Zhang Xiaoyi said in a panic.

Shen Ye’s figure disappeared instantly, merging into Xiao Mengyu’s shadow.

Xiao Mengyu adjusted her sword-holding posture and waited silently in place.

After seven or eight breaths.

A figure emerged from the depths of the mist.

This was a tall and burly young man with a beard, a square face, a scar on his forehead, special black gloves on his hands, and wearing a chainmail.

“Xiao Mengyu?”

The young man looked at Xiao Mengyu, a little surprised.

Xiao Mengyu frowned and said, “He Xisi, you’re the third-ranked master on the Newcomer List, why would you attack two ordinary students who haven’t learned many moves?”

“Oh, I’m actually hunting.”

The young man named He Xisi seemed a little embarrassed, scratching his head and saying, “My senses are more acute than yours, so when the rules changed, I knew I could kill people.”

“I’ll keep their heads.”

“That way, decades later, when I look at their heads, I’ll remember my youth and having participated in such a grand exam.”

“But you’re not on the same level as them in terms of strength, defeating them has no meaning,” Xiao Mengyu said.

“So winning isn’t enough, I need to kill them,” He Xisi said with a smile.

He spread his hands and explained seriously, “They could have lived a normal life, peacefully and steadily.

“But they insist on coming to the three major famous schools to study, competing with us for resources, and might even steal our positions and power in the future—”

“Some might even marry women from aristocratic families and have children with them.”

His face flushed slightly, and he said seriously:

“Thinking about all this makes me deeply disgusted.”

“The exam would never allow candidates to kill each other,” Xiao Mengyu emphasized.

He Xisi became even more excited:

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – it’s not my fault, it’s the exam rules that are wrong, so even if I kill someone, you can’t blame me.”

“These two people are my friends,” Xiao Mengyu said.

“Are you serious? You’re going against me? All for these two pieces of trash?” He Xisi said.

“I won’t let you kill anyone,” Xiao Mengyu said.

He Xisi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, “You were originally only ranked fifth. If it weren’t for the divine sword choosing its master, do you really think you could ride over my head?”

“—Perhaps I should kill you.”

Fifth place.

These three words changed Xiao Mengyu’s aura.

“The newcomer ranking list is just a rough estimate of our strength based on our achievements, and then a ranking is formed.”

She continued softly:

“Actually, if we fought seriously, I could definitely kill you with one move.”

He Xisi grinned.

His gaze fell on the Luo River Sword at Xiao Mengyu’s waist, then he slowly retreated step by step.

“You should thank your luck, Xiao Mengyu.”

“You actually obtained this ‘Luo River’ divine sword before entering the exam.”

“But I guess you can’t use it yet—”

“Divine artifacts aren’t that easy to control.”

After speaking.

He turned and left, disappearing from everyone’s sight.

“So arrogant… Hmph, what an egocentric guy,” Zhang Xiaoyi said indignantly.

A sudden change occurred—

The greatsword floating behind Xiao Mengyu suddenly fell and stuck in the ground, unmoving.

Wood also rolled into a corner.

A wooden bird also flew out from Zhang Xiaoyi and landed on a branch, stopping.

Everyone’s playing cards vibrated slightly.

Xiao Mengyu took out her card and saw lines of small text appearing on it:

“Temporary hunting rules added to this exam:”

“1. Candidates hunt each other; statues are not allowed to participate.”

“2. Combat with other candidates is recognized as part of the exam, and victors can gain some power boosts in the arena.”

“3. All deaths are considered normal exam behavior. After the exam, all traces will be immediately cleared, and no one will be able to investigate.”

Killing could grant power boosts!

Xiao Mengyu stared at the card in a daze, murmuring softly:

“Impossible, something must be wrong.”

“Were killings allowed in previous exams?” Zhang Xiaoyi asked.

“How could that be! Murder is such a serious crime, and it’s impossible for high schools to openly recruit murderers!” Xiao Mengyu said.

“But what about the supervising examiners? What about the other staff? Not a single one came out to speak,” Zhang Xiaoyi said in despair.

Xiao Mengyu was stumped.

“Those guys who were previously ranked lower might resort to murder,” she said hesitantly.

Zhang Xiaoyi suddenly sighed, his expression sorrowful.

Xiao Mengyu asked, “What’s wrong? Could it be…”

щшш ¤тt kдn ¤￠ Ο

“Yes, that guy, we saw him kill someone,” Zhang Xiaoyi said.

Xiao Mengyu’s face turned pale, her expression filled with anger.

“This isn’t over, I’ll definitely report it!”

She said to Zhang Xiaoyi.

Suddenly.

Two hands appeared behind her.

These two hands wore black gloves, silent and swift, they moved to strike her.

He Xisi!

He hadn’t left after all, but was waiting for an opportunity to ambush!

In a flash of lightning—

A pair of hands, sparkling with lightning, emerged from Xiao Mengyu’s shadow and met the black hands with a clap.

In a thunderous shock, He Xisi retreated a few steps.

Clang!

Xiao Mengyu drew her sword and thrust.

Her sword strike, fueled by anger, was incredibly fast, making the air sing in protest.

He Xisi spread his hands, then brought them together to clamp down on the longsword.

Empty-handed disarmament!

Xiao Mengyu didn’t dodge or evade, letting him strike the sword body and successfully clamp it—

Swish!

Xiao Mengyu pulled back her sword forcefully, and from within the sword body, another sword was drawn, unleashing a sharp sword qi like white frost.

A sword within a sword!

He Xisi froze in place, slowly looking down to see the bloodline appearing on his chest.

“Hahaha! What a move, Snow Cloud Returning Shadow! I heard this is a secret technique of your Luo family’s swordsmanship, I didn’t expect you to learn it so soon!”

He Xisi burst into laughter, his whole body shaking.

Crash—

His chainmail shattered and fell to the ground.

Indeed, a hideous sword wound appeared on his body, but his muscles were like exploding steel, and he actually managed to control the wound with just his muscles.

“To kill you, the Residual Snow Sword is enough.”

Xiao Mengyu said coldly.

Her short sword twirled slightly, and the blade on the ground immediately flew up, retracting the offspring sword back into itself.

The sword became a long sword again.

But in He Xisi’s eyes, it was more than just that.

Next time.

When Xiao Mengyu strikes again.

Will she transform her sword midway into an offspring sword attack, or will she still unleash a complete move with the parent sword?

Unpredictable.

This made the battle even more complex.

“Who is the other friend? Is it the one who claims to know fate but isn’t afraid?” He Xisi looked at Xiao Mengyu’s shadow.

“You don’t need to concern yourself with him,” Xiao Mengyu said.

“Acting mysterious, not daring to show your face?” He Xisi scoffed.

Xiao Mengyu sneered:

“He said there’s no need to talk about chivalry with someone like you – after all, you pretended to leave but secretly came back to ambush me, which is truly despicable and shameless!”

“He will always lurk nearby until he finds an opportunity to kill you.”

He Xisi’s face darkened.

The ordinary student next to him was useless, good for nothing but running fast.

The dog was also mediocre.

Originally, he could have fought against Xiao Mengyu.

But he didn’t expect Xiao Mengyu, at such a young age, to have already mastered the true essence of the Luo family’s Snow Cloud Returning Shadow parent-child sword technique, and now she also had the Luo River Sword in hand.

—Although she hadn’t yet truly mastered the Luo River, the sword was still a divine sword.

If there was also someone hiding in the dark—

It would be even harder to kill her.

Especially that palm strike just now.

That palm strike was extremely powerful and contained the attribute of lightning, truly not to be underestimated.
