Yao Ling Discovers She Has to Compete with Six Women for Affection, and the Sky Falls

Boom!

The next moment, a cobalt blue beam of light shot out and collided with the huge ice pillar.

Click!

The stalemate didn't last long. After the two made contact, the ice pillar began to melt, and after a moment, it shattered!

After all, this was Earth Tier Dou Technique that Xiao Yan used with the power of Heavenly Flames and compressed Dou Qi. It was not difficult for him to defeat a Mystic Tier Dou Technique that was only at the Dou Ling level.

As the blade of light swept across, Lin Zhan and his four companions were all sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground!

"Holy crap, Lin Zhan, a Dou Ling, was actually defeated by Xiao Yan, a Da Dou Shi!?"

Looking at the Cold Shadow Team lying motionless on the ground, some of the senior students couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"The flames that Xiao Yan unleashed earlier were no ordinary flames. To be able to suppress Lin Zhan and the others like that, they must be the legendary Heavenly Flames!"

Some of the more perceptive senior students had already noticed some clues and began to speculate about Xiao Yan's identity.

Xiao Yan stood tall and straight, and with a slight beckoning of his hand, five streams of light flew out from the five members of the Cold Shadow Team and landed in Xiao Yan's hand.

Wow~

Looking at the 105 on Lin Zhanhuo's crystal card, Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow. This was the richest one!

I hunted five teams and only managed to get two hundred Fire Energy.

It's surprising that Lin Zhan alone has over a hundred.

As for the other four, they have a combined total of 200 points, so they've really made a killing this time!

After reducing the fire crystals of the five members of the Cold Shadow Team to only seven points of Fire Energy, Xiao Yan casually tossed five Fire Crystal Card towards the five members of the Cold Shadow Team who were lying on the ground.

He then looked up at the sky and asked, "Elders, may we announce the results now?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, everyone looked up at the sky. Sure enough, two figures with Dou Qi Transformation Wings were hovering in the sky, looking down at them.

"The younger generation is truly formidable! Youngsters, you freshmen have won this year's Fire Energy Hunting Competition."

Elder Su's slightly aged voice echoed slowly, silencing all the senior students in the Inner Academy.

But they couldn't utter a single word of protest. After all, having witnessed Xiao Yan defeat five opponents stronger than themselves single-handedly, they were completely convinced of Xiao Yan strength.

Although they consider themselves geniuses, they also know that there are thresholds between geniuses.

After skillfully distributing the Fire Energy to his team members, Xiao Yan looked down at the Fire Crystal Card.

One hundred and eighty-three Fire Energy.

Looking at the numbers on the Fire Crystal Card, Xiao Yan nodded.

With so much Fire Energy, once you enter the Inner Academy and go into seclusion for a period of time, you'll probably make rapid progress.

Elder Su glanced at Xiao Yan and the others again, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes, before slowly saying:

"As the winners of this year's 'Fire Energy Hunting Competition,' Xiao Yan, Xiao Xun Er, Xiao Yi Xian, Yun Li, and Han Yue will receive an additional Cyan Fire Crystal Card, plus Heavenly Fire Energy."

"Cyan Fire Crystal Card?"

Upon hearing Elder Su's words, the surrounding senior students couldn't help but murmur in surprise, and envious glances swept over Xiao Yan and his group of five.

"Cyan Fire Crystal Card?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan and his companions were delighted. Through the senior's kind explanation (which they were forced to confess), they learned that the Fire Crystal Card were divided into five colors from low to high: black, blue, cyan, red, and purple. Ordinary black crystal cards only qualified them for cultivation on the first and second levels of the 'Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower,' while blue crystal cards qualified them for the third and fourth levels, all the way up to the ninth and tenth levels of the purple ones.

To upgrade a crystal card, you need to pay Fire Energy in the Inner Academy. It takes Heavenly Fire Energy to upgrade from a black crystal card to a blue crystal card, and two hundred Heavenly Fire Energy to upgrade from a blue crystal card to a cyan crystal card.

Now that they have received the Cyan Fire Crystal Card reward, it is equivalent to saving three hundred days of Fire Energy, which is no small amount. Among the Inner Academy seniors present who were robbed by Xiao Yan and his group, except for Lin Zhan, the others are still using Blue Crystal Cards.

No wonder these people are envious.

With a flick of his hand, Elder Su produced five cyan crystal cards. With a flick of his finger, the five cards shot towards Xiao Yan and his companions, finally hovering in front of them.

"The reward is already inside. Transfer the Fire Energy from the Black Crystal Card to it, and then return the Black Crystal Card to me."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan and the others quickly complied, and a moment later, they handed the now-empty Black Crystal Card to Elder Su.

Elder Su accepted the black Fire Crystal Card, nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"Alright, now that you've all passed the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, please follow me into the Inner Academy."

Having said that, he turned around first and led the way.

We can finally enter the Inner Academy!

Following Elder Su into the Inner Academy, the first thing that greeted them was an ice queen. She had long, azure hair and a delicate face, but her expression was cold as ice. She wore a light blue dress and stared intently at them.

That look seemed to suggest he was confirming something.

Xiao Yan thought to himself with a slight sense of doubt.

But soon, his expression changed slightly.

Holy crap, did she get reborn too?!

To be honest, Xiao Yan was a bit numb. Who else is coming? Come on, all of you!

He can handle it!

"Even Yao Ling Sister Yaoling came!"

The senior students who had followed Xiao Yan and the others out of the forest were also taken aback when they saw the girl with an icy expression.

This is the apple of the eye of the Alchemy Department elders. At only fourteen years old, he is already Fourth-Tier Alchemist. You should know that even many talented students in the Alchemy Department of the Jia Nan Academy are still cultivating Dou Qi at this age!

As Yao Ling gazed at the figures surrounding Xiao Yan, distant memories flooded her mind.

About three years ago, she discovered that she had been reborn.

All the tragedies haven't happened yet, and I still have time to do what I can.

Besides...

Perhaps I can meet that special someone again, someone I only see in my dreams!

Looking at Xiao Yan's slightly immature face, Yao Ling's heart pounded.

Flame Emperor Xiao Yan.

An incredible man.

When I first met him, he was still Two-Star Dou Saint.

However, in front of Elder Yao Wangui, he slapped his brother Yao Tian, who had spoken rudely, so hard that his face turned into a pig's head.

When they met again, he had already refined the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame. With the strength of Five-Star Dou Sheng, he swept through the Yao Clan, killed Elder Yao Wangui in front of the Clan Chief and a group of elders, and used his soul power at the late stage of the Heavenly Realm to refine Tier 9 Golden Pill, astonishing everyone present.

Such extraordinary talent is truly captivating!

Later, when the Yao Clan faced the crisis of extinction, it was this man who led him to escape from that certain death.

When she saw him again, he had already become a powerful Dou Emperor, capable of protecting all living beings on the entire continent.

After that, she never had the chance to see him again, and could only catch a glimpse of him from afar to gain some insignificant psychological comfort.

The last time she heard news of Xiao Yan was when he became the savior of a new world. By then, Xiao Yan was already incredibly powerful; she had no idea what level he had reached.

All she knew was that they would never have the chance to meet again in this lifetime.

At the moment her life came to an end, her soul floated out of her body and fell into a spatial vortex. When she opened her eyes again, she was reborn three years ago, at the moment she had just broken through to the Dou Zhe.

She spent some time having the clan's experts investigate, and finally, a year ago, they uncovered the existence of the famous genius boy from the Xiao Family.

After hearing that Xiao Yan was preparing to go to the Jia Nan Academy, she went to find the Yao Dan Clan Chief alone and told him the truth, revealing everything.

At first, the person refuted the Yao Dan.

How could the Soul Clan possibly annihilate the Yao Clan?

But when he learned about the Tunling Clan from Yao Ling, he realized that Yao Ling was not talking nonsense or suffering from hysteria. If it was the Tunling Clan, the Soul Clan could indeed wipe out the Yao Clan.

This is a matter of great importance, and Yao Dan shouldn't speak carelessly about it. We can only listen to Yao Ling's opinion.

What are your thoughts on this Yao Ling?

Looking across the entire Yao Clan, there isn't a single one who can fight; they can only rely on powerful figures.

The Ancient Clan is indeed very strong, but it's not easy to rely on their Ancient Clan backers.

After much thought, I realized I still had to rely on my own people.

Then, Yao Ling thought of her dream lover.

First of all, she had secretly loved Xiao Yan for many years. Marrying Xiao Yan would Yao Clan a son- Alchemy and Dou Qi, which was obviously in the Yao Clan's interest and also in her own heart.

Secondly, Xiao Yan's teacher, Senior Yao Chen, comes from the Yao Clan. Although there were many unpleasant things between them, it had nothing to do with him. Senior Yao Chen was able to become Ninth-Grade Alchemist on his own and cultivate such an outstanding disciple as Xiao Yan. Looking at the entire Yao Clan, no one can surpass him.

If the resources given to them were put into Senior Yao Chen, perhaps Senior Yao Chen would already be an equal to the Clan Chief.

Finally, even if the Yao Clan doesn't face the crisis of extinction, it will decline due to its complacency and isolation. As a member of the Yao Clan, I should naturally do my part for its revival.

So, after some effort, Yao Ling persuaded Yao Dan to use his connections with Mang Tianchi, and then, accompanied by a Dou Emperor- level guard, came to the Jia Nan Academy.

Her legitimate reason, of course, was to explore the mainland, to see the outside world and Alchemy.

Of course, this doesn't mean that her desire to be with Xiao Yan isn't a legitimate reason.

In her view, this was perfectly justified.

But if I were to say it out loud, things would definitely get complicated...

Because they acted discreetly along the way, they did not alert any powerful forces. Of course, the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan had been hindering each other for many years and had no time to deal with the movements of the Yao Clan and other declining clans.

The only ones who knew even a little bit about it were Lei Clan.

But after arriving at the Jia Nan Academy, she discovered that she wasn't the only one who had used connections!

Shi Xuanxuan, Ling Yanfei.

She wasn't actually familiar with them.

Among the Eight Clans, apart from the rather mysterious Soul Clan, the others all have information about each other regarding outstanding members.

But Yao Ling had never heard of these two names before, which was very strange.

The consensus among the Ancient Eight Clans is that the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan are in one tier, the Lei Clan and the Yan Clan are in another tier, and although the Yao Clan is slightly stronger, it is roughly in the same tier as the Shi Clan and the Ling Clan.

Of course, in reality, the Soul Clan is in a league of its own.

However, this was not what Yao Ling cared about.

When Yao Ling was particularly concerned, she had never heard of any female members of the Ling Clan or Shi Clan who were so talented and whose appearance was comparable to hers, even though they were both from the Eight Clans.

Of course, it wouldn't be surprising if the Ling Clan had one, since Ling Clan ancestor was a peerless female Dou Emperor.

But the Shi Clan is truly rare.

This brings us to the Dou Emperor Bloodline of the Ling Clan and the Shi Clan.

The surnames of some of the Ancient Eight Clans also represent the Dou Qi they cultivated and the characteristics of the Dou Emperor Bloodline passed down from their original Dou Emperor ancestors.

Among them, the four races of Fire, Thunder, Stone, and Medicine are the most typical, representing the four attributes of Fire, Thunder, Stone, and Fire with Wood element respectively.

The Shi Clan is quite unique, seemingly due to their bloodline. People of the Shi Clan are generally robust in physique, regardless of gender.

In addition, their training methods make their bodies tough and thick, making it virtually impossible for them to produce exceptionally beautiful girls. Moreover, their aesthetic preferences tend to favor the muscular type.

But in reality, the Shi Xuanxuan that Yao Ling met was an absolute beauty.

Although she has wheat-colored skin and doesn't look particularly fair, she is definitely beautiful enough.

She wasn't muscular, but she was very voluptuous, with a prominent bust and buttocks, and an extremely slender waist—not thin in the sense of being skinny, but rather appearing slender in proportion.

Her hair was just past her neck, not very long, and she looked both beautiful and cool. Yao Ling didn't know what the men thought, but in her opinion, this woman had a beauty that appealed to both men and women.

Of the remaining four clans, the Soul, Ancient, and the now-declining Xiao Clan are quite different. They have members of all kinds of Dou Qi attributes, but each has its own unique characteristics.

The Soul Clan is the most mysterious, but most of their Dou Technique are related to the soul.

Ancient Clan have a long history and possess many ancient Dou Technique and secret methods.

The Xiao Clan has declined beyond recognition, but it is said that the people of the Xiao Clan are very strong in battle, not in terms of Dou Technique, but rather as if their bloodline was born for battle.

However, one can glean some clues about this from looking at Xiao Yan.

As for the Ling Clan...

It is the most unique.

Although the Ling Clan is considered one of the weaker clans in terms of combat power among the Eight Clans, they are known for producing handsome men and beautiful women.

In terms of appearance, the Ling Clan bloodline is arguably the strongest.

In addition, members of the Ling Clan can also cultivate Ling Clan techniques through their bloodline, achieving a level of spiritual Spirit Communion unmatched in the Dou Qi Continent.

It's not about summoning something through a teleportation array, but about connecting with all things through one's own heart.

It can communicate with anything that possesses a spirit, whether it be a magical beast or a rare and precious treasure.

It is said that when the skill is cultivated to a high level, one can even communicate with anyone's mind, and no one can lie in front of them.

Yao Ling thought that this might be one of the reasons why the Soul Clan wanted to destroy the Ling Clan first.

Although Yao Ling had never heard of this Sister Ling Yanfei in her previous life, her appearance was extremely stunning. Although Yao Ling would definitely not admit defeat, objectively speaking, this young lady from the Ling Clan could be said to be the most beautiful in the Inner Academy Jia Nan Academy.

Of course, she's also the hardest to pursue.

To date, no fewer than one hundred people have expressed their affection for her, whether genuine or ulterior motives, all of whom she has rejected.

Yao Ling didn't know why two beautiful women with names she'd never heard of suddenly appeared from the Shi Clan and the Ling Clan, but her intuition told her that these two women posed a great threat to her!

By the time Xiao Yan became famous among the Eight Clans, both of those clans had already been Soul Clan.

Logically speaking, it's impossible for someone to be reborn in the same way as oneself.

But judging from the current situation, all signs indicate that they are very likely also after Xiao Yan!

Damn it!

Furthermore, why are there four women around Xiao Yan?

Gu Xun'er and Xiao Yi Xian are Xiao Yan's women, and Yao Ling knows this.

But who was that woman next to him, who also had an icy, aloof demeanor just like him?

And who is that woman with the alluring face?

Does this mean I have to compete with six women for Xiao Yan?

After this somewhat absurd idea rose in her mind, Yao Ling felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

Because she realized that this absurd idea might very well become a reality!
