Inner Court Disciple Assessment Begins

After returning to the Academy from Shrek City, Qian Chaoyun temporarily settled into a dormitory in the Outer Court.

For this reason, the Academy had specifically arranged a private room for Qian Chaoyun.

Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er attached great importance to the matter. They immediately returned to Sea God Pavilion and convened a meeting to investigate the attack.

Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao, meanwhile, were worried about whether Qian Chaoyun had been injured. They did not leave until nightfall.

The next morning, after recovering, Qian Chaoyun got out of bed and stretched.

After that battle, Qian Chaoyun had clearly slept more soundly.

It reminded him of a famous saying:

Born for battle, never resting until death!

At that moment, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his Sea of Consciousness said irritably, "You brat are a Brute. I'm regretting this now. I think that even if your opponent were a Soul Sage, you'd dare to charge in and fight him."

"How did you know?"

Qian Chaoyun revealed a surprised expression. He had not expected Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to understand him so well.

Brother Sky Dream truly was like a worm in his stomach.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's face turned green at those words.

This guy truly was not afraid of death.

It could only say, "Forget it. Actually, I think it's not bad for you to be like this. At the very least, no one will dare provoke you. Besides, your Soul Power has risen through killing Evil Spirit Masters. There's really no other way."

"You're almost level sixty now. Once this semester ends, I'll take you to obtain your Second Martial Soul."

Qian Chaoyun said expectantly, "The Bing Bing you mentioned?"

Tian Meng said, "Ice Empress! The second-ranked existence among the Extreme North Heavenly Kings, the king of the Ice Scorpion clan. Once you obtain your Second Martial Soul, we can rapidly stack our Combat Power. I've been waiting for you to restore the Angel God's divine status and lead Bing Bing and me to eternal life."

"Got it."

Qian Chaoyun answered casually, then cut off their mental connection. He looked at the Inner Court Disciple Assessment in his hand.

First assessment: Hold out for three minutes in battle against a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast in the Beast Fighting Area.

Several days had passed. It was time to head to the Beast Fighting Area and give it a try.

This assessment was not difficult for him. He could use the spiritual simulation granted by Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to pass, directly cheating by simulating the aura of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

But that was not what he wanted.

Qian Chaoyun wanted to defeat a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast openly and honestly, to see where his limits lay.

Then, he left the dormitory and headed for Shrek's Beast Fighting Area.

Before long, Qian Chaoyun arrived at the cafeteria for breakfast.

Morning classes had just ended, and quite a few Senior Students and New Students had arrived. He casually found an empty corner and sat down.

Just as he was eating, he looked up and saw some familiar faces.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu had also just gotten out of class. The three of them stared at one another.

Qian Chaoyun smiled faintly. "Second Young Master Dai, what a coincidence! You're even eating giant sturgeon. Looks like the Duke Mansion is quite wealthy."

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth and ignored Qian Chaoyun, silently finding a place to sit.

Zhu Lu followed close behind.

As he ate, Dai Huabin kept looking at Qian Chaoyun, fear already filling his heart.

It had failed!

He had mobilized the Duke Mansion's forces to assassinate Qian Chaoyun. Not only had it failed, but they had also lost so many powerful experts, while this guy was still standing before him as if nothing had happened.

The more Dai Huabin thought about it, the more terrified he became.

If the Academy uncovered the truth, he might no longer be able to continue attending classes here. What awaited him would be his father's whipping.

Those had been six top-tier experts. Even the Duke Mansion would feel the loss keenly.

Dai Huabin had not expected this guy's strength to be nearly on par with an ordinary Soul Emperor.

This assassination had not only failed to kill him, but had also further boosted Qian Chaoyun's fearsome reputation.

The matter had already shaken the Outer Court. Everyone knew how terrifying an Angel Soul Master could be.

At that moment, Qian Chaoyun finished eating and casually glanced at Dai Huabin.

The reckoning could wait until later. His strength was still insufficient, and he could not take down the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. After all, this was no longer Ten Thousand Years Ago.

In the blink of an eye, Qian Chaoyun arrived at the Beast Fighting Area.

It was an oval-shaped building that occupied an enormous area. The entire structure had four floors. The bottom three were built in an open, hollow style for raising Soul Beasts, while the top floor served as the battle area.

The entire building could only be described as luxurious.

The Soul Beasts raised here even included ones beyond the Ten-Thousand Year level, but Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were impossible.

No one could keep Super Soul Beasts in captivity. Even if one were captured, it would immediately provoke the fury of the Beast God in Star Dou.

The Beast Arena existed to train the students' practical combat skills. For students with higher cultivation, this place was like heaven.

At that moment, quite a few students were battling Soul Beasts inside the Beast Arena. Qian Chaoyun's arrival drew the attention of many students.

"Is that handsome and dashing Senior the famous Angel Killing God?"

"Shh! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Do you know our Senior's record? Alone with a sword, while dragging along two New Students, he forcibly killed five Soul Kings and one Soul Emperor in Shrek City. Ordinary people wouldn't dare offend him."

"I heard that Xu Sanshi, our Outer Court's Eternal Defense, was beaten so badly by Senior Chaoyun that he couldn't get out of bed. Since then, the king and emperor have never met again."

"Didn't you all hear it wrong? I remember it as one sword strike killing thirty Soul Kings and ten Soul Emperors."

"Wasn't it a hundred Soul Kings? Our Outer Court now calls Senior the Angel Killing God. He even has another title in the Inner Court: the Evil Soul Master Slaughter Machine. Standing this close to him, I can feel his Killing Intent."

"But he really is so handsome. I want to have his babies..."

"That's so shameless. Only you girls could say something like that."

"Oh, you're so annoying... Can't I like Senior Chaoyun?"

These voices grew more numerous, and they happened to reach Qian Chaoyun's ears.

The corner of his mouth twitched.

How had his record become more and more exaggerated?

Come to think of it, just how many Evil Spirit Masters had he killed?

Although the Academy had not publicized it extensively, his reputation was growing greater and greater. It had even surpassed that of many Inner Court Students, making him an object of admiration among the New Students.

At that moment, Tian Meng spoke in his mind. "I'm so envious of your fame, brat. If I were this famous, Bing Bing would be mine sooner or later."

"Get to the point. I'm very busy," Qian Chaoyun replied coldly.

"Fine!"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt that this brat was truly boring, then continued, "You can quickly clear this using your simulation soul skill. I can simulate the aura of a Fierce Beast. The Soul Beasts in there would definitely be scared shitless."

I refuse to cheat. I only want to rely on my own strength, Qian Chaoyun replied inwardly.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm: "..."

Before long, Qian Chaoyun arrived at the entrance to the Beast Arena. He took out his assessment assignment sheet and handed it over. "Teacher, please arrange a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast for me."

The teacher picked it up, took one look, and jumped in fright. Studying Qian Chaoyun, he said, "You're only a Soul King. Are you really challenging a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast?"

"I should be able to," Qian Chaoyun said.

"Alright. What's your name?" The teacher began registering his information.

"Qian Chaoyun."

"Mm... You're Qian Chaoyun, the Angel Soul Master known as the Evil Soul Master Slaughter Machine."

The beautiful female teacher blinked her delicate eyes, took out a photo of herself, and said, "Sign this for your teacher first!"

Qian Chaoyun did not understand the female teacher's peculiar hobby, but he respected her fan behavior and decisively signed his name on it.

Only then did the beautiful female teacher happily look Qian Chaoyun over. "I should be the first to get your autograph, right?"

"Teacher, can we talk business?"

Qian Chaoyun pointed at the assessment sheet, indicating that he needed to undergo the Inner Court Disciple Assessment.

Why was she acting lovestruck at a time like this?

The beautiful female teacher giggled, handed him a Beast Arena form, and indicated that Qian Chaoyun could enter the Beast Arena.
