Liu An complied with Yang Xiaotian’s instructions and investigated who exactly was spreading the rumors.
After two days of relentless searching and spending tens of thousands of gold, Liu An finally found out who had been spreading the rumors.
“Oh, the ones spreading rumors are Guo Wei and Chen Yibing from Wuding Academy?” Yang Xiaotian was somewhat surprised.
“Yes, it’s Guo Wei and Chen Yibing,” Liu An said. “This Guo Wei is not simple; he’s the top of the rankings in the Wuding Kingdom Academy Competition. During the competition, he defeated all his opponents with a single punch. No one could take even one of his moves.”
“No one could take even one of his moves?” Yang Xiaotian was astonished.
“Indeed,” Liu An said. “Some say he is the reincarnation of an Ancient Divine
Spirit, possessing inconceivable strength. His Martial Soul is the Ancient
Mythical Beast, the Golden Lion King.”
A level twelve peak-tier Martial Soul.
Who would have thought Guo Wei’s Martial Soul was the Golden Lion King.
“What is his strength?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
Liu An shook his head: “I don’t know. During the Wuding Kingdom Academy Competition, Guo Wei never revealed his true strength. Like the young master, he uses only his fists, not even a weapon. Chen Yibing, the second-ranked in the Wuding Kingdom Academy Competition, is at the mid-stage of Martial King Level Five, but he too was defeated by Guo Wei in a single strike.”
“It’s said that Guo Wei, just like the young master, is a Martial Dao prodigy and also a Sword Dao Genius. Even the Dean of Wuding Academy admitted that he couldn’t compare with Guo Wei’s swordsmanship talent,” Liu An continued.
Yang Xiaotian said nothing, listening to Liu An speak further.
“In this round of Tiandou Academy’s new student assessments, there are three hot candidates for the championship,” Liu An added. “Guo Wei is one of them, and moreover, he is the most likely to win.”
“Who are the other two?” Yang Xiaotian asked curiously.
“The other two, one is Crown Prince Xiao Yong of Tiandou, and the other is Lin Xiao from War God Academy,” replied Liu An.
Yang Xiaotian was taken aback. “Crown Prince Xiao Yong?”
He hadn’t expected Crown Prince Xiao Yong to be one of the three hot favorites to win the championship.
“Xiao Yong is no simple character either,” Liu An said. “His realm is at Martial
King Level Seven. The Tiandou Imperial Family has an Ancient Cultivation Technique called Stars Infinity Technique, extremely powerful, and it is the most formidable technique of the Tiandou Imperial Family. Besides the
Ancestor of Tiandou Imperial Kingdom, only Xiao Yong has mastered it.” “Xiao Yong’s Martial Soul is that of the Ancient Stellar Gods.”
Hearing that Xiao Yong’s Martial Soul was that of the Ancient Stellar Gods, Yang Xiaotian was amazed. Such a Martial Soul was extremely rare.
“Which of the Ancient Stellar Gods?” Yang Xiaotian inquired.
There are many Ancient Stellar Gods, with varying degrees of strength.
“That, I’m not sure,” Liu An replied, shaking his head.
Then he started talking about Lin Xiao from the War God Academy.
Among the surrounding forty-six kingdoms, War God Academy is known as the number one academy in Haohan Kingdom, gloriously renowned, standing side by side with Wuding Academy and Ancient Sword Academy as one of the top three academies.
Lin Xiao is War God Academy’s number one and also the winner of the Haohan Kingdom Academy Competition.
Like Guo Wei, when Lin Xiao participated in the Haohan Kingdom Academy Competition, he defeated his opponents with just his bare fists, and he did so with ease.
“By the way, Lin Xiao was born with a Divine Body,” Liu An said gravely. “It is the Thousandfold Divine Body.”
“The Thousandfold Divine Body!” Yang Xiaotian was moved.
Being born with a special physique is extremely rare. However, special physiques vary in strength. Take the Body of Solar Thunder from the Son of Thunder, for example, it’s quite good, but when compared to a Divine Body, it’s vastly inferior.
Moreover, the Thousandfold Divine Body is among the higher ranks of Divine Bodies.
The Thousandfold Divine Body is truly of infinite strength.
One with a Divine Body can wield any martial arts or Divine Skills with incredible power.
A talent with a Divine Body is almost as rare as one with a Supreme Martial
Spirit.
Yang Xiaotian’s heart surged with emotion.
Originally, he thought that being the first in the newcomer assessment at the Tiandou Academy would be unchallenging; now, it seemed there was indeed some challenge to it.
“Guo Wei, Xiao Yong, Lin Xiao!” Yang Xiaotian murmured.
He was now looking forward to the newcomer assessment at the Tiandou
Academy.
The next day.
As Yang Xiaotian was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, Xiao Jin walked in, complaining of boredom and stuffiness.
Seeing Xiao Jin’s pouting expression, Yang Xiaotian smiled, “You’re not bored, you’re just craving sweets, aren’t you?”
Xiao Jin sheepishly scratched his head, “I’ve heard that the lollipops in the Tiandou Imperial City are really tasty.”
Yang Xiaotian laughed heartily; this little guy was indeed longing for lollipops.
“Alright, let’s go buy some candy,” Yang Xiaotian said with a smile.
Xiao Jin was instantly overjoyed.
Without telling everyone else, Yang Xiaotian left the residence with Xiao Jin.
After inquiring about the most famous snack shop in the Tiandou Imperial City, the two headed in that direction.
Soon, Yang Xiaotian and Xiao Jin arrived at the snack shop.
Yang Xiaotian bought Xiao Jin an extra-large lollipop and got himself a pack of nuts from Huaguo Mountain, which both he and his sister, Yang Ling’er, were fond of.
Just as Yang Xiaotian and Xiao Jin turned to leave the snack shop, they saw someone being propelled toward them by someone else’s forceful shove.
Yang Xiaotian swiftly caught the person by the back with one hand, preventing a collision. However, the nuts he was holding fell and scattered on the ground.
The person turned around to thank Yang Xiaotian, only to freeze in surprise, “Hall Master Yang.”
It was none other than Chen Hailin from the Thunder Academy.
Chen Hailin’s mouth was bleeding, and there was a fist imprint on his chest, clearly indicating that the punch he had just received was no light matter.
Although Chen Hailin belonged to the Thunder Academy, he had already pledged allegiance to the Son of Thunder who was under Yang Xiaotian’s command, so seeing Chen Hailin beaten upset Yang Xiaotian, prompting him to frown and look towards the other party.
Four people on the other side.
They were all wearing the Wuding Academy’s battle robe, indicating they were students of Wuding Academy.
“What happened?” Yang Xiaotian asked Chen Hailin.
“The people from Wuding Academy have always bullied our Thunder Academy. Today, when I went out to buy some things, I bumped into them,” Chen Hailin explained. “The four of them attacked me as soon as they saw me.”
At that moment, the four from Wuding Academy approached.
As they came over, they crushed the nuts that had fallen to the ground under Yang Xiaotian’s feet.
“You stepped on my nuts,” Yang Xiaotian warned.
The group looked stunned and glanced at the nuts under their feet.
One of them laughed, “Kid, these nuts are yours?” With that, he viciously trampled on the nuts under his feet, crushing them into a pulp.
“Not only have I stepped on them, but now I’ve crushed them to a pulp. How about it, should I give you a silver coin to buy them back?”
The others laughed aloud.
However, as the laughter rang out, suddenly, a figure flashed, and Yang Xiaotian was already in front of him.
Yang Xiaotian reached out and grabbed the other’s neck.
The student from Wuding Academy was lifted off the ground by Yang Xiaotian as if he were lifting a duck, and then Yang Xiaotian sent a fierce punch to his stomach..
