A provocation!
A blatant provocation!
By now, more than a hundred prodigies from the major sects had gathered at the scene.
Every one of them was proud to the bone. When had they ever suffered such humiliation?
They trembled with rage, itching to rush forward and tear Jiang Fan to pieces.
But...
The bloody scenes they had just witnessed haunted them like nightmares.
For a moment, an eerie atmosphere settled over the scene.
Anger tangled with fear, while greed warred with reason...
"I'll do it!"
After a long pause, a cold voice rang out.
Everyone turned to see a tall, stern-faced disciple slowly emerge from the Black-and-White Academy's ranks.
His aura was as heavy as a mountain. With every step he took, the pressure on the crowd grew stronger.
"It's Chu Han of the Black-and-White Academy! He's here too!"
"Senior Brother Chu Han is a True Realm cultivator! He's one of the few True Realm powerhouses among the disciples who entered this Secret Realm!"
"Finally, a True Realm cultivator is stepping in. Let's see how that brat acts arrogant now!"
Once the disciples recognized him, their spirits lifted and hope flared anew.
Jiang Fan glanced at him.
Oh? True Realm?
Interesting!
Chu Han did not attack at once. Instead, he stepped forward and cupped his fists.
"Your strength is impressive. May I ask your name?"
"I am Chu Han of the Black-and-White Academy!"
"I'd like to test my skills against yours!"
Jiang Fan gave a derisive laugh.
"Test your skills?"
"You're after the Qi Luck Orb. Why dress it up?"
"Enough with the empty courtesies. Fight or get lost!"
He was thoroughly sick of that sort of pretense.
Chu Han had wanted to keep things civil, but Jiang Fan had seen straight through him. His face darkened.
"Arrogant fool!"
