This empty area is covered in rocks. When the spreading forest meets this rocky region, it stops expanding. Therefore, the sunlight, which scattered down from the sky, did not experience any obstruction when it was poured onto the ground. The warmth of the sun causes the human body to feel a warm feeling.
Not far from this rocky area is a swollen mountain slope. There were several chunks of rock of various sizes scattered on the mountain slope. At this moment, there were quite a number of people sitting or standing on or beside these mountain rocks. These people were quite young, around twenty-four to twenty-five years old. Their clothes might be different, but all of them wore tower-shaped badges on their chests. Clearly, these students were the older students of the Inner Academy.
On the other side of the mountain slope, there was a platform built on a huge rock. Two old men sat on this huge rock. They were actually Elder Su and Elder Qing, whom Xiao Yan and the others had met before they entered the forest. Sitting around them were a pair of middle-aged men with calm auras. Clearly, they should be the ones in charge of the various affairs within the Inner Academy.
” Hee hee, I heard that/that this new batch of students is very arrogant? They actually went and robbed ‘Energi Api’ of the older students instead? ” The gaze from the top of the mountain slope gazed at the rather gloomy area on the edge of the forest as laughter was being transmitted among themselves.
”Iya. I found out from some group of older students who came out of the forest this time. There was a group of new students led by someone named Xiao Yan, who seemed to be quite strong. ’
’’ Chi. They are just looking for excuses for their own failures. After all, they had at least trained in the Inner Academy for over a year. It is quite unexpected that/that they will lose at the hands of new students. Tsk tsk .. ’’
”Hopefully. I heard that/it's Sha Tie from ‘Black Demon Group’ also brings people to the forest. I wonder if they also met new students? ’
’’Oh? Sha Tie also entered? Then this new student can be considered finished. Sha Tie was a strong person who was about to enter the Dou Ling class. ’
”Betul. Their luck could be considered to have ended here. ’
When many private whispers were spread everywhere, the few human figures in the stone pile below moved slightly. They immediately opened their eyes slowly as their indifferent gazes swept across the dark forest.
These five human figures were just sitting on the messy rocks. Their breaths are long and calm. They did not move because of the private conversation that sounded in their ears. The five of them wore white-colored clothes, similar to an indifferent and indifferent aura.
Among the five of them, the one with the strongest aura was a young man in the middle, whose complexion was slightly white. At this moment, this white youth was the only person among the five whose eyes were still closed. He sat cross-legged on a rock, with his body looking similar to an ice sculpture. A hint of cold aura was veiled and actually caused some green grass on the rocks to be covered by white frost.
Time slowly flowed through the movements of the sun above their heads. Just when the students on this mountain slope thought that/that they had been waiting in vain today, suddenly a sound of footsteps came from within the dark forest. Soon, everyone strengthened their spirits. Their gazes all swept towards the forest exit without making a deal beforehand. The originally noisy private conversation also completely stopped.
Elder Su and Elder Qing on the rock stage at the top of the mountain slope also slowly raised their heads. They narrowed their eyes as they threw their gazes towards where the sound of footsteps came from.
As the atmosphere became silent, the sound of footsteps being emitted from within the dark forest became even more pressing. A moment later, a pair of legs stepped out from the exit of the dark black forest. Quickly following this, twenty human figures slowly walked out. The ones leading them were Sha Tie, Su Xiao, and the others.
” Uh? This Sha Tie and the others .. ” The gaze landed on the twenty human figures that walked out of the forest. Everyone on the mountain slope was shocked as they spoke in a stunned voice.
” Don't tell me that/that they've spent new students? ” A bit of hesitation appeared in everyone's heart, Many gazes shot towards Sha Tie and the others who were looking at him came out of the forest.
Twenty group men Sha Tie slowly walked towards the nearest pile of rubble. At this moment, the young man with pale skin also slowly opened his eyes. His gaze swept over Sha Tie and the others. A moment later, his face changed slightly. There was an additional seriousness in his indifferent voice.
’’You all completely defeated?’
Although his voice was soft, it was undoubtedly like an exploding thunder that suddenly roared in the clear sky. It immediately exploded among the Inner Academy students on the mountain slope until they were dumbfounded. Their faces are boring. The twenty older students who were stronger were enough to sweep away all the new students in battle. But ... Now that they heard what the pale-faced young man said, they were all completely defeated at the hands of the new students?
Although their hearts were greatly shocked, the students of the Inner Academy had no doubts over the words spoken by this pale-faced young man. With his abilities and vision, it was not difficult for him to see what was happening.
Therefore, at this moment, all the students could not help but feel somewhat dazed. The current new students were already strong to such an extent?
Sha Tie did not feel surprised that/it the pale-faced young man saw everything at a glance. He waved his hand and helplessly said, ’Those people are very strong. Their battle experience was also far from what ordinary students could compare to. ’
Sha Tie's words once again caused a sound wave, from swallowing saliva, to appear on the mountain slope. Some of the old students were unable to hide the shock in their hearts as they inhaled a deep cold breath. Even ‘Black Demon Group’ was defeated by the new students. Is this new batch of students really that incredibly strong?
’Leave this problem to us. Let me see just how great this new group of students, who had worried the entire Inner Academy, was. ’’The pale-faced young man slowly stood up from the rock and straightened his body. A faint chill suddenly rushed out from his body as he spoke indifferently.
Sha Tie's gaze carried a hint of weirdness as he looked at the cold air on the pale-faced young man. The floating bow lifted from the corner of Sha Tie's mouth. Compared to the close combat of his, the ice affinity of this friend, Dou Qi, would likely experience greater restraint under the terrifying green flames of his comrade.
” Move. All of you have already lost the qualifications to stay here. ’’ The pale-faced young man ignored him. His voice is still very calm.
”Good. I'm sure you'll soon have no qualifications either. ’
Sha Tie did not become angry. He laughed coldly. Together with Su Xiao and the others, he slowly retreated to the mountain slope. They had just climbed the mountain slope when a large group of rushing wind sounds suddenly sounded from within the dark forest!
After the appearance of this rumbling wind sound, the gazes that were shot at Sha Tie and the others once again turned to the forest exit.
Not long after their gazes shifted, the tree branches within the forest quickly swayed. Immediately, many human figures quickly emerged from within the dense forest. Finally, they landed in the sun with one knee on the ground. There are many human figures. If one counted carefully, there were actually no less than forty people. Looking at these figures, not only did the sound of a shocking sound come from the surrounding mountain slopes, but the face of the pale-faced young man also changed slightly.
” It is really unexpected that/it is actually there someone who is able to gather all the new students. This is a big step ... but who is this guy? ”Elder Su sighed in shock from the stone stage as he looked at the dozens of new students who had appeared. ‘The Fire’ Energy Hunting Competition from previous years is nothing short of people wanting to gather all the new students together to fight as a whole. As each of the new students became arrogant, however, it was rare for anyone to manage to accomplish this.
” I think .. should be the young man called Xiao Yan. Wasn't it Hu Gan's parents said that/it was during the Qualifying Competition, this person relied on his own strength to defeat three, four, or five new students who joined hands … ” Elder Qing voiced his thoughts.
Elder Su nodded slightly. He voiced some praise in his heart.This Xiao Yan is indeed a good seedling.
The new students were in front of the pile of rocks, which had come out of the forest, raising their heads as they swept their gazes across the older students on the mountain slope with eyes that contained different types of emotions. Finally, they spread to both sides and opened a small path in the middle.
The new students spread out and the end of the small path remained directly connected to the dark forest exit. A soft trace rang out in that place and four human figures immediately came out slowly from the darkness. Finally, they passed through a small path formed by the human crowd before appearing right in front of the new students.
The one leading them was a black-robed young man carrying a huge black ruler who was almost as tall as himself. He raised his head slightly and his gaze scanned the entire place. Finally, it stopped at the five white-clothed young men on top of the pile of rocks. He cupped his hands as he asked with a smile, ‘’You seniors should be the last group of the’ Fire Energy Hunting Competition this year, ” ‘White Demon Group,’ right?”
” White Demon Group Leader, Luo Hou. ” The pale-faced young man's face swept across four of them. It paused on Xun Er and Hu Jia for a moment before quickly staring intently at Xiao Yan, who was standing in the middle as he slowly spoke.
’New student leader, Xiao Yan.’ ’Xiao Yan smiled as he spoke softly by following Luo Hou's way of speaking.
Luo Hou nodded. The cold air all over his body became increasingly dense. A fierce power rose up from within his body and enveloped this area filled with piles of stones. Some of the expressions of the weaker new students changed because they could not withstand the pressure from this power, which was even greater than Sha Tie.
Xiao Yan's face became even more solemn as he felt an ice-cold pressure around his body. It was just like Sha Tie said. This person was an extremely powerful Dou Ling.
When they thought of this in their hearts, Xiao Yan turned his head to exchange glances with Xun Er and the other three. He nodded slightly and the four of them took a step forward at the same time. Immediately, four powerful Dou Qis suddenly surged out from their bodies. The four forces intertwined in the air before finally merging together, blocking the cold force that surrounded their bodies.
As the four of them moved, the dozens of new students also released varying strengths. Although their troops could not compare to a single one in Xiao Yan's group if they were to be seen individually, the sum of those numbers caused the strength to immediately become the strongest present.
With the superimposition of all the new students, including the four groups of men Xiao Yan, the ice-cold dominating power that absorbed from Luo Hou was basically broken after contact. Seeing that/that the leader of their group suffered defeat, the other four members of ‘White Demon Group’ also quickly unleashed their strength and together, they, they finally managed to hold back that powerful force from the other side.
In their initial exchange, Xiao Yan's group relied on their numbers to suppress the ‘White Demon Group.’ The profit in numbers seems very obvious here.
The victory they gained in their clash of auras also caused the confidence of all the new students to soar. The small worry formed due to Luo Hou earlier was also immediate and completely resolved.
Xiao Yan took a step forward. His gaze looked at Lou Huo, cupped his hands together and asked in a clear voice, ’’ Senior Lou Huo. Can you allow us to pass this final check? ’
Xiao Yan's voice echoed throughout the place scattered with rocks, causing the entire mountain slope to become quiet.
Luo Hou's expression was indifferent. His eyes also stared intently at Xiao Yan. It was a long while later before his mouth moved slightly. One cold word was spat out.
”No!”
