Dragon Sovereign

Zhang Fan couldn't help but laugh as he said this. He seemed to be in a daze when he looked at the two of them, which made him embarrassed. Wasn't it just changing clothes?!    

However, he did not know that after half a year of tempering, his current temperament was now completely different from last year's. Before, he might have carried a somewhat immature aura, but now, just looking at his temperament, it seemed as if he had gone through many vicissitudes of life and was very reserved.    

The two of them nodded their heads at the same time. At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside. Zhang Fan raised his head and saw the door open. Fatty appeared in front of him, followed by Liu Fei and the rest.    

"Boss, aside from those who came here first, all the recruitment staff have been expelled." Fatty's face was filled with pain. After all, he had spent quite a bit of money during the time Zhang Fan had left … In the end, he still couldn't bear to part with so many people. After all, they had all been accumulated over such a long period of time.    

Zhang Fan naturally saw the look on the fatty's face and the corners of his mouth curled up. A proud look appeared on his face as he directly said, "Even if it's Heaven's Punishment, then our Heaven's Punishment will not accept random people, but if it's Heaven's Punishment, then we will absolutely not accept people with bad morals, and even if it's Heaven's Punishment, we will not accept people with bad morals. Even if it's Heaven's Punishment, we will not accept people with good interests, and we will only accept elites.    

"Fatty, ignore everything I've said before. Go back and run around the academy a few times, I'll punish you!"    

"Boss, there's no need for this, is there?" A bitter smile appeared on the fatty's face.    

"Of course!" Zhang Fan nodded his head. "Otherwise, you won't have long to remember!"    

This was because if he really did obtain this position, it was possible that he would leave Dragon Martial Academy in advance to go to Blue Cloud Academy. Thus, he had to leave behind his will; he absolutely could not bury the name of 'Sky Scourge'.    

"Alright then," the fatty nodded with a wry smile.    

"You guys go too." Zhang Fan glanced at Liu Fei and the others. "When Fatty did that, I didn't know to remind you that there were two who were there to help out."    

From the looks of it, Zhang Fan's return meant that he was relieved. With the change of heart, he had already recovered all of his previous feelings, so he did not go and say anything. He had always believed that everything Zhang Fan said was correct.    

"Alright, you can go now," Zhang Fan waved his hand and said.    

"Oh." Fatty nodded his head and followed Liu Fei and the rest out.    

After they had left, Zhang Fan turned around to find that Ouyang Xian'er and Xiao Yue were looking at him strangely.    

"What's wrong with you guys?" Zhang Fan asked.    

"No problem!" Both of them said at the same time.    

Zhang Fan lightly nodded his head, but didn't say anything else. It was highly likely that he would run into that Nie Yan. If he really did meet him, he would definitely kill him. He had already killed a Grade 8 martial general, so he wasn't afraid at all.    

Just as he was thinking about this, footsteps could be heard from outside. Then, the door opened and a man appeared at the entrance.    

Zhang Fan raised his head and looked over. His eyes were filled with doubt. That man was quite tall and was quite handsome. Moreover, his body was rippling with an extremely restrained aura. His expression gave off a cold feeling.    

"You're Feng Ling." The man looked at Zhang Fan and spoke directly.    

"Yes," Zhang Fan nodded.    

"Why did you come back?" The man asked a question that Zhang Fan found extremely baffling. "I'm not going back."    

"My name is Nie Yiping," the man slowly said, with a trace of emotion in his eyes. Then, he directly said, "You shouldn't have applied for the exam."    

Zhang Fan's expression also changed, while Yue Yi's expression also changed slightly. Perhaps Ouyang Xian`er was the only one with a hint of doubt on her face.    

"What do you want?" Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes. The current him, was not afraid of a Grade Eight Martial General.    

"I don't want to do anything!" Nie Zhong indifferently glanced at Zhang Fan, his eyes narrowed, and after a long while, he said, "I don't want to target you. I understand my younger cousin's character, and your ability to kill him proves that you're not bad. If I'm not wrong, the reason you left for half a year wasn't to flee, but to temper yourself, right? But you really shouldn't have come back."    

At this moment, Zhang Fan was even more confused. Nie Zhong had come to his door and refused to engage in a direct battle. On the contrary, he was wondering what Nie Li meant by those words …    

Nie Xiao is my younger cousin and the son of the current Patriarch of our Nie clan. Once you return, our family will definitely not let you off, including me. However, since you've already arrived, you should take care of yourself. Let's meet on the stage. At that time, I won't hold back. With these words, Nie Jing turned around and walked out of the hall.    

He was lost in his own thoughts. Could it be that Nie Zhong didn't want to participate in this matter because of the pressure exerted by his family? Zhang Fan frowned. If that was the case, then this Nie Zhong's character was pretty good.    

According to his speculations, if he didn't return, Nie Ming would also go to the Azure Cloud Academy after passing the competition. Therefore, he didn't need to interfere in this matter. However, after he returned, not only would the Nie Family be against him, the pressure from the Nie Family would also do the same thing.    

If that was really the case, then not only was this person of good character, but he was also of a very good character. He even saw the pity in Nie Ying's eyes when he left.    

"Looks like he's better than I thought," Yue Yi's hoarse voice sounded, revealing a hint of surprise on her face.    

Zhang Fan lightly nodded his head with a strange expression on his face. At this rate, he would have to thank Nie Li for the invisible pressure that had forced him to go and hone his skills.    

If he was a person, perhaps it would be more accurate to say that he was someone who pursued the pinnacle of martial arts. According to Old Cao, although Nie Yan's talent wasn't the most outstanding, he was still the most diligent person. Otherwise, if he could understand the information about Nie Zhong, he definitely wouldn't be able to do so in the first place.    

Regardless of what book it was, even if he was a good person, he would represent the Nie clan once he received Nie Zhong. Therefore, when Nie Zhong arrived, not only did the pressure on him not decrease, it even increased.    

Did the Nie clan want to target him? If so, then the one in front of him now wouldn't be just one person, but the entire Nie clan.    

However, no matter what, if the Nie clan wanted to deal with him, they would have to pay some price. As he thought about it, a cold glint also appeared in his eyes.    

In the afternoon, the competition rules had also been posted. The three of them went over to take a look and found that the second day's competition was only for the new disciples, and the top three were only for the new disciples. The top three, on the other hand, had the chance to enter the Compendium Pavilion to obtain a cultivation technique, and could even choose to enter the older students' competition.    

The rookie competition's number was announced. There were less than 300 people, and they were divided into 10 stages. Each stage had around 30 people, and each stage had a number. It was the starting number of the number plate.    

Zhang Fan's number was 317, Ouyang Xian`er's number was 608, and Yue Yi's number was 512. Fortunately, the three of them were not on the same stage, otherwise, if they were on the same stage, there would be people who would have failed.    

The next day, the first day of the competition. Although the rules of the competition had been posted on the forum yesterday afternoon, Zhang Fan still brought Ouyang Xian`er here early. After all, it was Zhang Fan's first time participating in a competition like this.    

Because the competition did not allow magical beasts to be brought out, Zhang Fan placed the magical beast in Old Cao's room.    

As the arena was very large, there were more than ten battle platforms evenly distributed around it. Looking around, there were a few people surrounding each platform. When Zhang Fan and Ouyang Xian`er were heading to platform six, they saw Yue Yi passing by platform five. That was why they directly pulled Ouyang Xian`er and walked over.    

"Yue Yi, you can do it!" The two of them arrived at Yue Yi's side. Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.    

Hearing the familiar voice, Yue Yi turned her head. When she saw the two of them, a complicated expression flashed in her eyes before she nodded.    

"Work hard." "The three of us will fight for the promotion!" Zhang Fan smiled. If that was the case, they would have the chance to participate in the seniors' competition. If that was the case, it was highly possible that they could obtain the qualifications to send the Azure Cloud Academy.    

After all, reporting for the freshmen wasn't based solely on strength, but also on a variety of comprehensive tests. Even if they couldn't reach the top, they would still have a chance.    

"Let's work hard together." Yue Yi gently nodded her head. Everyone in Blue Cloud Academy wanted to go there, and Yue Yi was no exception. In order to enter this school, her goal was actually to enter Blue Cloud Academy.
