9 THRONES

CHAPTER 116: WARNING

Although in the end the killer managed to escape from the hands of the silver mask teacher, but he managed to kill the killer.

If not for the assassin possessing some expensive treasures like rune escape, he would definitely not have had a chance of life since being chased by the silver mask master.

So many people were staring at the silver mask teacher full of awe or fear, some people were wondering if the other 9 teachers were this strong as well.

If the other 9 teachers were as powerful as the silver mask teachers, you could imagine how terrifying the power in Tardi's hands was.

"The killer was completely insane, I miscalculated! Who would have thought he would slash his hand without hesitation in order to have a chance of escape, next time I should have been more careful. The assassin did not think like a cultivator while fighting, really a good lesson", muttered the silver mask master.

The main reason the assassin had a chance of escape was that the silver mask teacher had never thought before, the assassin would slash his hand without hesitation just for the chance to escape.

If you think about it, it is better to let go of 1 hand than to lose his entire life.

The problem among many cultivators though, was that few people could slash his hands without hesitation in order to escape.

Therefore, the silver mask master was slightly surprised at the decisive assassin's move to remove his hand.

The silver mask master shook his head then stopped thinking about this matter, even though the assassin escaped, he had died under the silver sword just now. The silver mask master was sure, he had managed to kill his enemy earlier.

Now that it was only necessary to wait for the teachers who left to search for his corpse back, they would immediately find out who exactly dared to send the assassins here.

The silver mask teacher turned around and looked towards the entire audience who were staring at him, the silver mask teacher's eyes were extremely cold "I don't know who would dare to send assassins here, either, but it's only a matter of time until we figure it out. When we know the fools who broke the rules of the academy and the peace of human cultivators, they must have been unavoidable from the existing laws of cultivators!".

"Don't think I'm a fool! Some of you might be doubtful whether the assassin just now was actually sent by someone from the academy. But let me tell you 1 thing, without someone's protection from the academy, there's no way a killer can hide here. No, even passing through the academy gate was impossible unless there were disciples helping him. So I'm definitely figuring out who's behind all this, they're dead when I find out".

The silver mask teacher immediately left after delivering his warning, he had to meet Tardi and report everything that happened.

The spectators stared at each other before starting to leave as well. Although they walked away, they continued to talk about the killer as well as the silver mask teacher's warning. After all everyone was curious, who exactly possessed such great courage to summon assassins and draw the anger of the academy.

Vann who on the other hand sighed and threw away his worries, at least now he remained alive.

Vann sees Kyuro falling asleep then walking away from the arena as well, he has to rush to retrieve all the treasures he won from the match just now.

...----------------...

In the villa of the strongest elite disciple of the rank 10 Wood Sword Academy, Horge walked from left to right and continued to repeat it for several hours, it could be seen how worried he was.

Moreover, many people are suspicious of Horge, after all Vann has challenged and defeated his followers many times, it is not strange that Horge feels revenge for Vann to be able to kill him.

The problem is that all the words just now were true, Horge was the one who hired the killer last afternoon to kill Vann as Poris suggested.

Even Poris said he chose the best killer for Horge, an assassin who uses an artifact weapon and a level 5 Gold Core power, who thinks Vann still failed to be killed.

"What are you worried about, Horge?", Poris' voice echoed in the living room which made Horge smile widely.

Horge who was worried immediately became happy, he ran closer to Poris "Sir Poris, what should I do next? The assassin you suggested failed, if the academy gets his body and finds out I'm the one who hired the killer, they're definitely not going to let me go".

Poris broke away from Horge's hands before sitting in the living room chair, his face did not look panicked in the slightest "No need to worry, the killer I introduced to you is from the Monster Laboratory, he said, they must have eliminated the trace of their comrades death as best they could without giving the academy or any other group a chance to discover their whereabouts. Therefore, the academy won't find out that you're the one behind all the assassination plans".

"Really?" said Horge sitting in front of Poris full of pleasure.

"Am I going to bother lying to you?" said Poris rolling his eyes "What you have to worry about now isn't the academy knowing you paid the killer to kill Vann but the way to kill Vann next! You must have seen the match earlier this afternoon, Vann's strength was too strong! At least most likely he was able to fight you, let alone he got another treasure from his victory today, you are definitely not his opponent!".

Horge regained his senses, he actually watched Vann's match this afternoon and realized Vann's frightening development.

When Vann and himself met a month later, he was definitely not Vann's opponent anymore.

"Sister Poris, what should I do? If I lose, I will definitely suffer heavy injuries like the one that happened to Yun Tian. Not to mention Vann must have realized some trouble like me trying to kill him, he wouldn't let me go" Horge said frantically.

Poris smiled, he took a sword at his waist and placed it on the table "Tomorrow, you must go challenge Vann, do not waste any more time so that Vann develops stronger. Besides, you must use this sword against Vann, you must defeat him".

The curious Horge took the sword from Poris before judging it up close.

At first there was nothing strange about the sword, it looked like a normal sharp silver sword.

But over time, Horge found eyes and mouth on the sword "What!".

Horge who was surprised at the appearance of the eyes and mouth on the sword immediately threw it, he pointed at the sword earlier with a trembling hand "Sir Poris, what sword is that? Why did I find eyes and mouth on the sword?".

"It's not strange because this sword is not a normal sword but a monster that is transformed as a sword" Poris said explaining "Although it looks scary, as long as you use it as well as possible, your strength must have increased so much that you were able to defeat Vann. Without the help of the monster sword, you would have no chance of winning against Vann".
