“You wretched boy, do you think that by clinging to powerful patrons, you can act with impunity?” Li Changqing snorted, “In this Qingyun Academy, if I don’t protect you, you wouldn’t know how many times you’d be dead!”
“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 will 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 Battle is about to begin.”
“The previous Lingyun Mountain trial was a test for the new disciples, but the Tengyun Battle is for all the inner court disciples to participate in.” Li Changqing continued slowly, “In past years, this kind of trial usually takes two forms. One is a tournament, where thousands of inner court disciples at the Condensation Meridian realm will engage in round after round of matches. The final hundred will be the new Tengyun List’s top talents, and then they will compete for ranking among themselves!”
“The other way is for the academy to designate a new area within the Qingtian Mountains, where thousands of disciples will enter to hunt spiritual beasts. Meanwhile, the academy will hide some rewards for the disciples to find. The top hundred will 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 alternates between these two methods. Ye Wushuang, with an uninterested expression, asked, “Why are you telling me all this?”
“Aren’t you going to participate?” Li Changqing was taken aback.
“Why should I?” Ye Wushuang waved his hand and said, “Vice Dean Li, don’t forget that I still have a month of punishment in the Qingliao Tower to complete.”
“You…” Li Changqing was speechless again. This young man was truly capricious.
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 the top geniuses at the peak of the Condensation Meridian realm from the Five Great Clans. If you kill 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 out all their Tiangang realm cultivators to come to the Qingyun Academy and kill me!”
Huh?
What nonsense was this young man talking about?
Since he met Ye Wushuang, Li Changqing had never seen him afraid of anything. Was he afraid now?
“Are you trying to deceive me?” Li Changqing shouted, “You wretched boy, 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 Tiangang realm cultivator, he shouldn’t take such a young man at the Condensation Meridian realm seriously.
“Qingliao Tower, ten days of punishment, starting today!” Li Changqing humphed, “Ten days later, you must participate in the Tengyun Battle. This is something that 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 twisted into a somewhat ingratiating smile, and said, “Ye Wushuang, the last time you demonstrated that sword technique, it felt like it was missing something to me. Show me that sword technique again.”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang coughed and straightened his clothes.
Seeing Ye Wushuang’s posture, Li Changqing wanted to kick him, but he had no choice but to swallow his pride.
“What is it missing?” Ye Wushuang asked indifferently.
