“You little brat, do you think you can act with impunity just because you’ve found a powerful patron?” Li Changqing snorted, “In this Qingyun Academy, if I don’t protect you, you wouldn’t know how many times you’d have died already!”
“No worries…” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Even if you don’t protect me, there’s still Elder Tang Chuyi and Dean Yun Xingjian. At worst, I can have Chi Tian follow me. If anything happens to me, Chi Tian would be in danger too, and wouldn’t Chi Yuan and Chi Xuan rush over immediately?”
“You… you…” Li Changqing was at a loss for words and could only humph, “The Tengyun Chart battle is about to begin.”
“The previous Lingyun Mountain trial was an assessment for the new disciples, but the Tengyun Chart battle is for all the Inner Court disciples to participate in,” Li Changqing continued slowly. “In the past, this kind of trial usually took one of two forms. One is a tournament-style competition, where thousands of Inner Court disciples at the Ningmai realm would engage in round after round of matches on the stage, eventually selecting the top hundred to form the new Tengyun Chart’s hundred elite. These hundred would then compete in a ranking battle.”
“The other method is to designate a specific area within the Qingtian Mountains, where thousands of disciples would enter to hunt spiritual beasts. The academy would also hide some rewards for the disciples to find. The final ranking of the top hundred would be determined by points. Among these top hundred, if anyone is dissatisfied with their ranking, they can challenge those ranked above them.”
The Qingyun Academy often alternated between these two methods. Ye Wushuang, with an uninterested expression, asked, “Why are you telling me all this?”
“Are you not going to participate?” Li Changqing was taken aback.
“Why should I?” Ye Wushuang waved her hand and said, “Vice Dean Li, don’t forget that I still have a month of punishment in the Qingliao Tower that I haven’t completed yet.”
“You…” Li Changqing was speechless once again. This little rascal was truly doing as he pleased.
After calming himself down, Li Changqing continued, “Ye Wushuang, during the Lingyun Mountain trial, you killed Qin Cangsheng, Chu Haoyu, and Shang Mingjie. Although they were the young geniuses of the Five Great Clans, their deaths didn’t really hurt the clans.”
“But this time it’s different. The participants are all top-tier Ningmai realm geniuses from the Five Great Clans. If you kill any of them, the Five Great Clans will definitely feel the pain!”
Seeing Li Changqing’s sly expression, Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Forget it. If I kill them, I’m afraid the Five Great Clans will turn against me directly, sending all their Tian Gang realm cultivators to the Qingyun Academy to kill me!”
Huh?
What nonsense was this little brat talking about?
Since he had known Ye Wushuang, Li Changqing had never seen her afraid of anything. Was she afraid now?
“Are you trying to deceive me?” Li Changqing shouted, “You little brat, do you really think I won’t hit you?”
“Go ahead and hit me!” Ye Wushuang said indifferently.
“You…” Li Changqing forced himself to calm down once more, reminding himself that as a Tian Gang realm cultivator, he shouldn’t take it personally with a Ningmai realm kid.
“Ten days of punishment in the Qingliao Tower, starting today!” Li Changqing humphed, “Ten days later, you must participate in the Tengyun Chart battle. This is something no Inner Court disciple of the Qingyun Academy can refuse!”
“Alright…” Ye Wushuang nodded reluctantly.
With that, Li Changqing leaned closer to Ye Wushuang, his face wearing a somewhat ingratiating smile, and said, “Ye Wushuang, when you demonstrated that sword technique last time, it felt like something was missing. Show me that sword technique again.”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang coughed and straightened her clothes. Seeing her posture, Li Changqing wanted to kick her, but he had no choice but to swallow his pride.
“What was missing?” Ye Wushuang asked calmly.
