Hidden Dragons in the Abyss, Dragons and Tigers Clash

Second update today: Chapter 705! 2/5!

A figure like an exiled immortal descended from the sky, treading upon empty space.

The leaders of the various institutes, who had been arguing atop the mountain peak, all rose and bowed.

Aside from these academy leaders, members of the various powers invited to witness the event, as well as some foreign races friendly with humanity, all noticed the person standing in the air.

Even Saint-level powerhouses who had come from afar, such as Ouyang Feng, had been seated in the places of honor alongside the patriarchs of Imperial Capital's first-rate families!

The various attendees who had already entered all stood up, bowed with cupped fists toward the man overhead, and cried out in unison, "We welcome Sage Dong!"

Sage Dong!

Xu Kun looked up. He did not know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the academy lord standing high in the sky was looking at him as well!

Not daring to be disrespectful, Xu Kun lowered his head and bowed too.

"Formalities may be dispensed with!"

It was a simple sentence, yet it made everyone feel as though they were bathed in a spring breeze!

Xu Kun's bowing motion froze, and he involuntarily straightened up.

After hearing those words, the many students blocked by Panshi Gate seemed to have been granted immense courage. Holding their breath, they strode forward in great steps!

"Students of every institute, take your seats!"

"Yes!"

The academy higher-ups who had gathered on that peak flew into the air one after another, then landed atop the various mountaintops.

"Metal Institute students, take your seats!"

The burly higher-up who had made those radical remarks earlier spoke first. The mountain beneath his feet radiated a golden glow representing the metal element!

"This..." Xu Kun's expression changed drastically.
