Chapter 862: Grand and Magnificent!
At this moment, Xi Wuqing couldn’t help but feel proud. With half of his body already buried in the soil, he didn’t mind being in the company of these few young prodigies.
“Then it’s decided, we shall be sworn brothers. How about we rank by age? I’m twenty years old this year,” Xu Chen smiled.
“I’m seventeen this year,” Flame Scale said excitedly.
“Seventeen…”
Xi Wuqing was also shocked. Flame Scale was only seventeen and already possessed such strength. It was truly terrifying.
“I’m sixteen years old this year, almost seventeen,” Su Yi said with slight disappointment. It turned out that Flame Scale was slightly older than him.
“Sixteen…”
Upon hearing that Su Yi was only sixteen, Xu Chen couldn’t help but give him a disdainful glance. “He’s only sixteen years old,” he thought. “This fellow is already so terrifying. Looking back at myself four years ago, I feel even more discouraged.”
“With my old bones, I can only take advantage of the situation,” Xi Wuqing chuckled wryly.
“I want to become sworn brothers too; I’m one year old this year.”
Su Xiaoshuai flapped its wings anxiously, worried that Su Yi wouldn’t let it join.
“This little bird is only one year old?!”
Xu Chen and Flame Scale were both amazed. “This talking bird is only one year old?!”
“Very well, you can join too!”
With a smile, Su Yi welcomed the little one without hesitation, then glanced at those around him.
“Heaven and Earth, today Xi Wuqing, Su Xiaoshuai, Xu Chen, Flame Scale, and I, Su Yi, become sworn brothers, supporting each other in adversity, sharing in prosperity. We don’t ask to be born on the same day, month, and year, but we hope to die on the same day, month, and year. If anyone breaks this oath, may thunder strike them and lightning pierce their heads!”
Amidst the stunned gazes of the crowd, Su Yi knelt down on both knees, with a broken sword thrust into the ground. He didn’t fear the prospect of dying on the same day, month, and year. His voice echoed through the empty space.
“Heaven and Earth, today Xi Wuqing, Su Yi, Su Xiaoshuai, Xu Chen, and Flame Scale, become sworn brothers, supporting each other in adversity, sharing in prosperity. We don’t ask to be born on the same day, month, and year, but we hope to die on the same day, month, and year. If anyone breaks this oath, may thunder strike them and lightning pierce their heads!”

Voices filled with energy soared skyward, reverberating in all directions!
The entire venue fell into an inexplicable silence. Countless eyes fixed upon these individuals, causing hearts to tremble.
Four figures and a peculiar little bird, illuminated by the radiant light of the Sacred Mountain’s powerful warriors, performed the ceremony of swearing allegiance to heaven and earth. Their voices intertwined with the echoed energy, displaying both arrogance and pride!
“They made a pact, fearless of life or death, undaunted by the Sacred Mountain!”
“So carefree, so bold!”
“Su Yi, Xu Chen, Flame Scale, they are the top geniuses who reached the top eight of the Saint Martial Assembly. They made a pact!”
“If they don’t perish today, given time, they will become the most formidable trio in the entire Central Region!”
“I don’t know why, but my blood is boiling!”
“I don’t know why either, but I feel like weeping!”
The whole place stood in awe, eyes trembling!
Despite the pressure from the powerful Sacred Mountain experts, those figures showed no fear. Under the brilliance of the Sacred Mountain experts, they made a pact with heaven and earth—such heroic spirit!
“Young man, you’re too impetuous! But that’s what youth is all about!”
Among the five sects and three doors, even the strong couldn’t help but feel stirred in their hearts.
Xu Chen and Flame Scale actually forming a brotherhood with Su Yi at this time was undoubtedly extremely unwise. Young people are indeed impetuous, but it also proves that this is the essence of youth.
They were once young too, but back then, they lacked such youthful recklessness. Compared to them, these young people were far ahead.
In the distance of the square, Shao Sijun, Cheng Yanhuan, Lin Fan, Chi Tianxuan, and others observed those figures from afar, their eyes filled with waves of emotion.
“In this life, I can no longer compare myself to them. This time, I acknowledge my defeat!”
Chi Tianxuan whispered, gazing at those three young figures, admiration in his eyes. He knew that he could never measure up to those three people in his lifetime.
“If I were alone, I too would want to be so daring, so as not to disappoint the recklessness of youth!”
Shao Sijun whispered, his eyes filled with swirling light. He looked at those three young people from a distance, with longing in his eyes and a boiling passion in his body. If he didn’t have the Beast Emperor Sect behind him, he would also want to be like them, but he couldn’t, because of his obligations.
Above the sky, a group of powerful individuals from Sacred Mountain looked at each other, their gazes trembling.
“Hahaha!”
Xi Wuqing laughed heartily, waved his hand to pour wine, and bowed.
“Boom boom boom!”
The four individuals and a bird all bowed their heads solemnly. Su Xiaoshuai’s small head might have prompted laughter, but no one dared at this moment. This scene only made their blood boil, bringing forth tears of excitement.
“Big brother, second brother, third brother, fifth brother!”
After three resounding sounds, Su Yi stood up, looking at Xi Wuqing, Xu Chen, Flame Scale, and Su Xiaoshuai beside him, his eyes shining with determination.
“Big brother, third brother, fourth brother, fifth brother!”
“Big brother, second brother, to the death, fifth brother!”
Xu Chen and Flame Scale stood up, with smiles on their faces. Their clothes fluttered in the wind, and their hair danced.
“Hahaha, I never imagined that I, Xi Wuqing, would have such worthy younger brothers as you. Heaven has been kind to me!”
Xi Wuqing laughed heartily and took a large sip from his wine gourd. At that moment, his slim and tall figure emitted an invisible aura. His wide robe swayed in the wind, and his brown eyes sparkled with excitement as he exclaimed, “Cheers!”
“Cheers! Who can match us at the Saint Martial Assembly this time? Hahaha!”
Xu Chen raised his wine gourd and took a hefty sip. His white clothes billowed, and his eyes flashed like lightning.
Flame Scale remained silent. Scales on his body shimmered, but he paid no attention to his appearance. He smiled warmly, took the wine gourd, and drank deeply.
“It’s my turn, and I want to drink too!” Su Xiaoshuai flapped his wings eagerly, always wanting to participate.
“Here you go.”
Su Yi took the wine gourd and poured a small amount for Su Xiaoshuai.
“Gurgle…”
With just one mouthful, Su Xiaoshuai’s excited expression suddenly turned peculiar. He then opened his beak, stuck out his tongue, and said, “So spicy, why is this drink so spicy!”
“Hahaha…”
Seeing Su Xiaoshuai’s expression, everyone erupted in laughter.
“Gurgle…”
Su Yi raised his head, his throat moving as he drank in large gulps. As the liquid flowed down his throat and spread throughout his body, he looked at Xu Chen, Flame Scale, Xi Wuqing, and Su Xiaoshuai beside him. His gaze flickered with determination as he said, “Today, with all of you by my side, I shall not let this life go to waste!”
Above the empty space, Saint Fire glanced down at the figures below, listening to the increasing discussions around him. His face turned deathly pale.
