Chapter 2220

Ye Qingtian still refused to believe in Ye Fan's story as he found it somewhat ridiculous.

“War God, I know it may be a little hard for you to believe this, but there are many things in this worldthat we don't know about. Anyway, I've told you everything I know. You are free to deal with thisinformation however you wish, but I do hope you will put a stop to Dragon Gate Project immediately.You, me, and all the martial artists of China should refrain from participating in it. Once you're caught inthat trap, you won't be able to escape from it,” Ye Fan said solemnly.

Ye Qingtian nodded. “All right, then. I'll head back and discuss this with Sword Saint and the others.This decision is far too big for me to make on my own.”

“The truth usually lies in the hands of a select few,” Ye Fan added as he stood up.

He then walked right out of the restaurant, leaving Ye Qingtian to ponder his words all by himself.

Ye Qingtian summoned Sword Saint and King of Fighters after making his way back to Mount Yan laterthat night.

He told them everything that Ye Fan had mentioned earlier.

Sure enough, King of Fighters and Sword Saint were both shocked by what they had heard.

“W-What did you just say? Jiuzhou and Moryana are being controlled by Symborsus? Are youserious?” King of Fighters exclaimed with his eyes wide.

Sword Saint was in so much shock that he fell speechless.

“That's what Ye Fan told me. It's probably just his guess, though. He doesn't have any solid evidence toprove those claims,” War God replied with a wry chuckle.

King of Fighters breathed a sigh of relief before exclaiming in displeasure, “This is utterly ridiculous!How dare he make such bold accusations without solid evidence? I bet he's just trying to frame Jiuzhouout of spite!”

“Huh? King of Fighters, you shouldn't badmouth Ye Fan like that. It doesn't seem like he's doing this toframe anyone. He probably just knows something that we don't,” War God explained in an attempt todefend Ye Fan.

Sword Saint looked up at him and asked, “Are you saying that you trust Ye Fan and plan to halt DragonGate Project to investigate Chen Jiuzhou and Moryana?”

War God shook his head. “No, I won't just believe Ye Fan's words and do something that will affect thecountry without seeing solid evidence. I think we should continue to carry out Dragon Gate Project.”

Sword Saint nodded in agreement. “What Ye Fan said was indeed shocking, but I don't think it's true.He's probably just being a little paranoid, that's all.”

“You're right. We should just ignore him and participate in the Dragon Gate project as planned.Hopefully, it'll allow us pillars of China to become even stronger than before. It'd be great if you couldachieve god realm, War God!” King of Fighters said excitedly.

War God let out a hearty chuckle. “As magical as Dragon Gate may be, I doubt it would help me reachgod realm. I only came here in hopes of making it into the top three on Sky Ranking!”

“Hahaha! Given your talent, reaching the top three on Sky Ranking would be a walk in the park! I won'tfall that far behind, though! I'll work hard during this training exercise to improve my swordsmanshipeven further!” Sword Saint's eyes lit up with excitement as he thought about how powerful they wouldbecome.

Time seemed to fly by really quickly that night, and it was soon the next morning.

Having completely forgotten about Ye Fan's warning, Ye Qingtian and the others were preparing fortheir Dragon Gate training that day.

According to the plan, all of those who registered for the Dragon Gate Project would undergo the finalselection process, which would result in a list of ten individuals being chosen.

“Mr. Kong, do you think I'll be one of the chosen ones?”

The martial artists of China were all gathered in War God Castle, but they weren't the only ones there.

According to a decision from the Martial Arts Security Council, martial artists from the larger countriesin East Aploth were allowed to participate in China's Dragon Gate Project as well.

There were only a few Dragon Gates available in the world.

In order to cultivate as many elite martial artists as possible, Martial Arts Security Council decided tohave the countries with Dragon Gates take in participants from other countries.

Lu Yanxi clenched her fists as she waited anxiously for the list of finalists to be revealed.

She was nowhere near this level of nervousness while traversing the rainforest with Ye Fan back then.

“Haha! Calm down, Yanxi! There's no need for you to get so worked up over this. Just relax and leaveeverything to fate! Stressing yourself out won't do you any good. Besides, Dragon Gate Project will lasta year, so there will be more batches of participants in the future. Given your amazing talents, it's onlya matter of time before you get selected!” Kong Ming said with a chuckle.

Lu Yanxi felt a lot better after hearing that.

Eventually, Chen Jiuzhou stepped out of the hall and announced, “Attention, everyone! I have receivedthe approval of my mentor, Moryana, and have finalized the list of the second batch of martial artists.

Please step forward if you hear me read your name!”

With the documents in hand, Chen Jiuzhou scanned the crowd before him as he continued, “The firstcandidate to qualify for the Dragon Gate training exercise is War God, Ye Qingtian! The secondcandidate is Sword Saint, Xiao Chen! The third candidate is King of Fighters, Mo Gucheng!”

Sure enough, the first three slots were given to China's top three Supreme martial artists.

Ye Qingtian, Sword Saint, and King of Fighters stepped forward and stood next to Chen Jiuzhou asrequested.

A few minutes later, all ten martial artists were standing on the stage.

Kong Ming was standing among them, but Lu Yanxi did not make it into the top ten.

“Don't give up just yet! You'll be in the next batch for sure!” Kong Ming comforted her before making hisway on stage.

“Congratulations on being selected to participate in this training exercise! You will spend three monthsin Dragon Gate, so consider this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Of course, it is up to you how far youwill get by the end of this training exercise. That is all. I will open Dragon Gate shortly, so please getready!” Chen Jiuzhou said as he stomped on the ground and launched himself up into the air.

He then crossed his fingers and started chanting something while he was in the air.

The next thing they knew, the ground began to tremble as the ancient stone door reappeared on thepeak of Mount Yan.

Like moths attracted to a flame, everyone in the area found themselves staring at Dragon Gate as itcame into view.

The martial artists that had been chosen were all eager to charge right in.

As for those who didn't get selected, they could only vow to work harder and make it into the nextbatch.

“Open, Dragon Gate!”

A loud rumbling noise echoed throughout the area as Dragon Gate opened up on Chen Jiuzhou'scommand.

“Enter the Dragon Gate now!” Chen Jiuzhou ordered, prompting Ye Qingtian and the others to chargetoward the Dragon Gate.

Right as they were about to enter, however, a figure came flying toward them from the distant horizon.

“Boundless Destruction!”

The figure then delivered a punch so powerful that its shockwave alone knocked the ten martial artistsback.

Without wasting another second, the figure turned around and slammed a fist at the gigantic stonedoor.
