Listening to the mockery around him, Chen Changqing, He Le, and others glared angrily.
Someone then laughed and said, “I don’t know about peeing himself, but I’m sure Yang Xiaotian will be so badly abused that his own mother wouldn’t recognize him.”
Many laughed aloud.
Just as Chen Changqing and the others were about to angrily step forward, Yang Xiaotian raised his hand to stop them.
Yang Xiaotian looked at the two who had just mocked him.
One was from Profound Ice Academy.
The other was from Saint Light Academy.
These two academies, among the many kingdom academies, were also very strong, much stronger than Divine Sword Academy.
Yang Xiaotian remembered these two academies.
Guo Wei looked at Yang Xiaotian and laughed, “Yang Xiaotian, heard that? I hope you won’t be so badly abused by me that even your mother won’t recognize you.” After that, he left directly with the members of Wuding Academy.
Wu Qi stared at Guo Wei’s figure and said to Yang Xiaotian, “Young master, do you want me to take action now and deal with this trash and the rest of Wuding Academy?”
Yang Xiaotian shook his hand, “No need.” Then he said, “If anyone is to deal with him, it will be me personally.”
Those who knew Yang Xiaotian well understood that he was already angered.
A moment later, the dean Xie Hong of Tiandou Academy and the high-ranking members of the academy appeared on the main stage.
Xie Hong glanced at the elite competitors from the various kingdoms, his gaze lingering a bit longer on Guo Wei, Xiao Yong, and Lin Xiao, then said to the Great Elder Zhong Yun, “Start.”
The Great Elder Zhong Yun nodded, then stepped forward and invited the top ten disciples from each major kingdom academy to enter the competition arena.
Yang Xiaotian and the Son of Thunder, Chen Hailin, Cheng Wu, and others entered the arena.
After Yang Xiaotian, Guo Wei, Lin Xiao, and the others entered the arena, Zhong Yun began to announce the rules for this freshmen assessment.
Actually, the freshmen assessment didn’t have many complexities—it was a platform battle, determining the top hundred by victory and defeat.
Of course, after selecting the top hundred, the final rankings for the top ten would also be decided based on victories and defeats.
The rewards for the top ten were very generous.
The higher the rank, the more astonishing the rewards.
Zhong Yun especially mentioned the reward for first place this time: “The winner of this freshmen assessment will not only receive a set of high-grade treasures, one hundred low-grade Spirit Stones, ten superior Nine Suns Longevity Pills, but also a Supreme Divine Sword Technique.”
He paused for a moment, then said, “Skywalking Thousand Swords!” As soon as Zhong Yun’s words fell, everyone was shaken.
“What, Supreme Divine Power, Skywalking Thousand Swords! This is one of Tiandou Academy’s top ten swordsmanship techniques, and they’re actually offering it as a reward for the first-place winner!”
“Skywalking Thousand Swords, with one sword movement, even the winds and clouds change, this Skywalking Thousand Swords, priceless!”
Many elite competitors from the kingdoms were burning with enthusiasm in their eyes.
Being listed as one of Tiandou Academy’s top ten swordsmanship techniques speaks volumes of Skywalking Thousand Swords’ power.
When Guo Wei heard that the first prize was Skywalking Thousand Swords, his eyes also blazed with fervor. He had long coveted this swordsmanship, and it was one of the techniques he desired most since joining Tiandou Academy.
Xiao Yong and Lin Xiao had similar reactions to Guo Wei. Hearing that the top prize was Skywalking Thousand Swords, they both clenched their fists tightly, silently vowing to win the title of top freshman.
Zhong Yun saw the reactions of the crowd and slightly smiled.
In the eyes of the Tiandou Academy’s high-ranking officials, Guo Wei had the greatest chance of winning the championship this time. Offering Skywalking Thousand Swords as a reward was essentially preparing it for Guo Wei.
The high levels of Tiandou Academy had already intended to cultivate Guo Wei as one of the candidates for the next dean.
“Alright, everyone come forward to draw lots,” Zhong Yun said after a pause. Yang Xiaotian and Guo Wei among others stepped forward to draw lots.
This time, Yang Xiaotian drew number seven.
And the one who drew the same number seven as Yang Xiaotian was Hu Xiangqian from the Profound Ice Academy.
Hu Xiangqian was the strongest student in the Profound Ice Academy and the first place winner in the national competition; his strength was formidable, and many had pegged him as a hope for the top twenty.
Seeing that his first opponent was Hu Xiangqian, Yang Xiaotian gave a cold laugh. It had been Zhang He, the dean of the Profound Ice Academy, who had just remarked that he would be ‘thrashed to the point of wetting himself’ by Guo Wei.
Hu Xiangqian was his disciple.
Upon seeing his disciple, Hu Xiangqian, facing Yang Xiaotian in the first match, a look of surprise crossed Zhang He’s face, after which he said to Hu, “Yang Xiaotian’s flesh is strong, so when you make your move, aim for his eyes, his throat, and use the Ice Force to slow down his movements.”
Hu Xiangqian responded with a smile, “Don’t worry, Master. I’ve been hiding my true strength. I will let everyone know that the betting rankings are incorrect. ”
In recent betting rankings, his position was slightly behind Yang Xiaotian by one or two spots.
Hu Xiangqian had long been discontent with this ranking.
He believed that with his strength, he could defeat Yang Xiaotian completely.
Isn’t everyone saying Yang Xiaotian’s flesh is strong? He would soon let everyone see whether it was Yang Xiaotian’s flesh or his flesh that was stronger.
Days before, he had awakened a certain ancient bloodline, and once he activated the bloodline’s power, both the strength and defense of his flesh would skyrocket.
Even his master didn’t know about this.
Hu Xiangqian strode toward the number seven platform.
Just as Yang Xiaotian and Hu Xiangqian were heading towards the number seven platform, Chen Hailin from Thunder Academy had an ugly expression on his face because he had drawn Guo Wei of Wuding Academy for his first match!
Seeing that Guo Wei’s first opponent was Chen Hailin, the faces of those four students from Wuding Academy lit up with joy.
“Senior Brother, if it hadn’t been for that Chen Hailin, we wouldn’t have been injured by Yang Xiaotian’s blows that day. You must thrash him in the match and avenge us,” one of them said with hatred.
“Don’t worry,” Guo Wei replied. He leaped up, landing on the platform, looking at Chen Hailin as if he were a weak ant, “You’re Chen Hailin, right? Come on up.”
Chen Hailin took a deep breath and slowly stepped onto the platform.
Once Chen Hailin was on the platform, Guo Wei walked toward him, “Yang Xiaotian threw a punch at each of my four junior brothers before. Now, I shall return them all to you.”
Before Chen Hailin could react, a figure flashed before him, and Guo Wei was suddenly in front of him, hammering a fierce punch into Chen Hailin’s stomach.
At this moment, students on the various platforms also started to battle.
On platform seven, Hu Xiangqian likewise walked toward Yang Xiaotian, proclaiming proudly, “Yang Xiaotian, everyone says your flesh is not weak. Let’s exchange a punch later and test our flesh, shall we?”
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian smiled, “Are you sure?”
Hu Xiangqian did not speak but activated the ancient bloodline within his body.
Suddenly, a furious power surged out from him.
Seeing Hu Xiangqian’s body glowing, his entire being undergoing astonishing changes, runes spread over his body like vines.
Feeling the astonishing power of Hu Xiangqian’s fury, Xie Hong and others turned their gazes this way, and upon seeing the changes to Hu Xiangqian’s body, they couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “That’s the Ancient Berserk Beast Bloodline!”
“What? The Ancient Berserk Beast Bloodline!” The crowd was shocked at hearing this.
The Ancient Berserk Beast Bloodline was strong and well known to many.
Seeing his disciple activate the Ancient Berserk Beast Bloodline, Zhang He was first surprised, then overjoyed.
This disciple of his was indeed full of surprises.
With this, his victory was assured.
