First Meeting with Han Yue, Fu Ao Courting Death

"Junior Xiao Tian, this year's freshmen are truly outstanding under your and your brother Xiao Yan's leadership."

Xiao Tian shrugged. "Senior Han Yue, you flatter me. It's just tough on the freshmen in my year."

"Judging from Junior Xiao Tian's words, you're only worried about the other freshmen, not about yourself at all. It seems you're very confident in your abilities. I presume you already understand the current divisions within the Inner Academy? I wonder if you have any plans for now?"

Han Yue stared intently into Xiao Tian's eyes and asked tentatively.

"Senior, I've heard that your Moon Spirit only recruits girls. I'm a boy, so there's no need for any other probing. You'll find out eventually anyway."

Xiao Tian chuckled. He did remember Moon Spirit; this faction was entirely composed of women and only recruited women.

"If it's Junior Xiao Tian joining, I think I can make the decision. Besides, with Junior Xiao Tian's unparalleled looks, I think the others would most likely not object."

Han Yue spoke in a cool and aloof tone, yet her words carried a seductive undertone, making her appear both innocent and alluring.

"Then I definitely can't join. Men need to protect themselves when they're out and about."

"Hehe, Junior Xiao Tian's words are really interesting."

Upon hearing Xiao Tian's words, Han Yue could no longer maintain her aloof demeanor and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

Elder Liu, standing to the side, even began to doubt whether the Han Yue in front of him was real. She wasn't like this before. Could the charm of a man really be so effective?

"We've already established a new force, everything's ready, and most of the new students have joined, so I appreciate Senior Han Yue's kindness."

"You mean you've built a faction, and it's all new recruits?"

Han Yue frowned and looked at Xiao Tian in astonishment. Even Elder Liu, who was standing to the side, cast a surprised glance at her.

"Is Senior Han Yue implying that we only recruit freshmen, which might easily provoke dissatisfaction from other factions?"

Judging from their expressions, Xiao Tian could roughly guess what they wanted to say.

"It seems Junior Xiao Tian understands the ins and outs. The new students entering the Outer Academy are the best and most important opportunity for various forces to replenish their blood. Your approach is indeed..."

Han Yue shook her head helplessly and said with a serious expression.

"I understand that, but I'm not afraid. If they dare to cause trouble, I won't back down. If I have to be timid and hesitant when doing something, how can I pursue higher goals?"

Xiao Tian stood with his hands behind his back, his face serious and solemn, exuding an aura of dominance over the world.

With righteousness and truth in hand, even a passing dog deserves a slap.

"It seems Junior Xiao Tian already has a plan."

Han Yue recalled the aura that erupted from her body when she refined the Heart Flame, and realized that she did indeed have the ability to say that.

Because of his own cultivation technique, he could sense a terrifying aura emanating from Xiao Tian.

"Since that's the case, then I won't bother Junior Xiao Tian any longer. If you ever figure things out, my door to Moon Spirit is always open for you. If you need any help in the future, you can come to me, and I'll do my best to assist you."

"Furthermore, I, Moon Spirit, have always been a neutral force and will not be your enemy, so you can rest assured."

Han Yue knew the die was cast and spoke sincerely to Xiao Tian.

"Then thank you in advance, Senior Han Yue."

Xiao Tian smiled and nodded when he heard Han Yue's words, knowing that Han Yue was only speaking to him because of his talent and potential.

In a world where strength is paramount, this is normal behavior; no one wants to waste too much time on a useless person.

If others heard that Xiao Tian was integrating new students and building up his power, they would probably all stay away from Xiao Tian. At least Han Yue gave him a reminder and helped him to the best of her ability, which already far surpasses many others.

It should be understood that Xiao Tian's actions were tantamount to making an enemy of the entire Inner Academy.

As the two were talking, Xiao Yan, who was standing to the side, also successfully calmed his Heart Flame and opened his tightly closed eyes.

I felt that in just a few minutes, my skills had improved slightly.

"As expected of the Heavenly Flames known as a cultivation cheat device, it smells wonderful."

Xiao Yan thought to himself, his heart burning even more intensely.

"Good job, little guy. You two are brothers, I'm so envious that your family has two geniuses."

Elder Liu glanced at Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan, and said with a smile.

Xiao Tian also introduced Elder Liu and Han Yue to Xiao Yan. This time, Han Yue simply nodded to Xiao Yan, and they got to know each other briefly.

"Alright, Junior Xiao Tian, I won't take up any more of your time. I also need to go to the sixth level to cultivate. We can talk again another time. We at Moon Spirit look forward to your arrival."

Han Yue bowed slightly to the three people present, said one last thing to Xiao Tian, and then left.

Xiao Tian watched Han Yue's departing figure and smiled faintly.

"Xiao Tian, you're the only man who's been able to shake hands with Yue Ya Tou since she was hospitalized. I have high hopes for you."

Elder Liu approached Xiao Tian with a smile, and even Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Tian with a teasing expression.

"Elder, please don't try to matchmake us. Senior Han Yue and I are barely even friends right now."

Xiao Tian looked at the Elder in front of him, who seemed to be the reincarnation of Yue Lao, with annoyance.

Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Tian with a teasing expression. He knew very well that his older brother was a womanizer, and who knew that the silver-haired woman from earlier might suddenly become his sister-in-law one day.

"Now let me show you around the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower."

"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Liu."

"It's alright, it's part of my job."

Led by Elder Liu, Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan toured the first level of the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower. As always, Xiao Yan approached the Black Hole that had trapped the Fallen Heart Flame Fire Python.

During this time, both of them had gained a thorough understanding of the entire Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower.

Regardless of the floor, there are three levels of Cultivation Room: high, medium, and low. The training speed is different, but the cost is the same. It all depends on your strength to compete for them.

Fighting is not prohibited inside the tower, and the Elder will not interfere as long as no one is killed.

Elder Liu found a mid-level Cultivation Room for the two of them. "When you need to cultivate, just put the Crystal Card into the groove on the stone platform."

"Normally, only one person is allowed to cultivate in a Cultivation Room. This time, we're making an exception so you can experience it."

After Elder Liu finished speaking, he turned and left the Cultivation Room, and then the door of the Cultivation Room closed.

With a flick of his hand, Xiao Tian sent a crimson Crystal Card steadily landing in the groove.

As soon as the two sat down cross-legged, an invisible flame appeared inside their bodies in a strange way, and they closed their eyes and began to cultivate.

Half a day passed, and with a notification sound, the two ended their cultivation. What was supposed to be a full day's worth of Fire Energy could only be used for half a day because there were two of them.

Xiao Tian felt that the Dou Qi within his body was more focused, and he even vaguely sensed that the Gui Water Spirit Thunder he was refining had also absorbed some of the Heart Flame, but it was not obvious.

During this time, Xiao Yan also successfully broke through to the level of Eight Star Dou Grandmaster.

"Let's go. Pan Gate has just been established, and we've been out for half a day. We need to go back and help, otherwise Hu Jia will probably jump up and start cursing."

Now that Pan Gate has just been established, although I want to be a hands-off manager, I can't completely relinquish my responsibilities at this stage.

After leaving the Cultivation Room and bidding farewell to Elder Liu, the two headed towards their residence in the pavilion.

At this moment, two forces were facing off at the entrance of the attic.

One side consisted of people from Pan Gate, while the other side was a dozen or so young men dressed in white, the leader of whom looked quite handsome.

The people of Pan Gate looked at the young man with disgust; it was none other than Bai Shan, who had previously abandoned the Fire Energy Hunting Competition and betrayed the new life.

"Xun'er, Hu Jia, it seems Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan are both cowards. They might have already run away."

Bai Shan looked very spirited and had a big smile on his face.

"Do you think everyone is like you? Trash who betrays their companions."

Hu Jia looked coldly at Bai Shan and directly mocked him. Upon hearing this, Bai Shan's smiling face immediately darkened.

"Bai Shan, I've already told you to stop with the nonsense and just defeat them. Those freshmen will naturally leave."

A rather burly-looking man emerged from behind Bai Shan.

"Then we'll leave it to Fu Ao."

The burly young man known as Fu Ao stepped forward, looking at Xun'er, whose delicate face was filled with icy Xun'er.

"I don't need too many new students, just give me five."

Bai Shan's expression changed upon hearing this. He realized he had more than five tasks to complete today. Just as he was about to speak, Fu Ao continued with a smile:

"These five people must include Xun'er sister Xun'er, or you'll be in for a world of hurt."

"Oh, I'd really like to see what your anger looks like."
