"Is there no justice left!?"

Only then did Yang Hong realize why he had been beaten.

There were actually people working for Luo Li within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy!

And they had already reached the Transforming Heaven Realm!

He no longer maintained his previous arrogant and overbearing demeanor, merely throwing his head back and roaring.

In Yang Hong's eyes, Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy was one of the Five Great Academies, so it surely had certain rules.

For example, fighting was forbidden outside designated areas.

As long as he could attract a Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy instructor or elder, someone would certainly stand up for him.

No matter what, they could not lay such heavy hands on a freshman junior like him!

"I am justice!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the cold and glamorous An Ran swung another slap at him.

Even though Yang Hong tried to resist, he was still slapped across the face.

"Take him away!"

An Ran then waved her hand.

Several older students sneered and dragged Yang Hong away in full view of everyone.

As for where they took him, it was clearly not something these people could know.

"Senior Sister, isn't this a little inappropriate?"

Mu Chen swallowed, feeling that the cultivation environment at Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy seemed rather different from what he had imagined.

Was it really this violent?

Wouldn't that mean people could start fighting anywhere, anytime?

The many freshmen also instinctively echoed him. They did not want to be beaten up whenever and wherever.

They still needed somewhere safe enough to cultivate.

Otherwise, how could they improve their strength?

"What's inappropriate about it?"

An Ran cast Mu Chen a glance and said icily, "Let me tell you all: in Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, and even across the Northern Heavens Continent, Luo Li is a taboo!"

"Even Dean Ta Cang would not dare overstep!"

Those words left Mu Chen and the others utterly dumbfounded.

Dean Ta Cang was a Supreme Realm expert from one of the Five Great Academies.

No matter what, Luo Li should not be enough to make even Dean Ta Cang afraid to act recklessly.

After all, even after obtaining the Spirit Crown, she would at most enter the Three Heavens Realm.

She was still quite some distance from the Supreme Realm.

As for Luo Li's background, the Luo God Clan, it should not be enough to make the renowned Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy act this way either.

That could only mean there was something they did not know.

Having only just arrived, Mu Chen gritted his teeth and immediately asked:

"Senior Sister, could it be that the Luo King came to Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy?"

When the Spirit Road had ended, she had publicly rejected Dean Tang Qiu of Myriad Phoenix Spiritual Academy.

As for Dean Ta Cang of Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, she had politely declined him as well.

"That was over two months ago."

An Ran nodded slightly, a smile appearing on her face.

"Her accomplishments are beyond your imagination. You won't understand them yet."

"In the time ahead, as freshmen of the same class, you will gradually come to understand."

"If any geniuses wish to join an academy faction, you are welcome to join the Luo God Society."

During this period, following Luo Li's instructions, she had already established the Luo God Society within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

The so-called Luo God Society belonged to Luo God City, the hegemonic force of the Northern Heavens Continent.

However, it existed only within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

Its size was strictly controlled, and it would recruit only the finest elites.

Next, she would approach Su Xuan, ranked fourth on the Heavenly Ranking.

As the second-ranked prodigy among the female students of Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, Su Xuan had caught Luo Li's attention.

Luo Li wanted her to manage the Luo God Society, as well as some important affairs of Luo God City.

After all, Luo Li and Zhao Chen were already preparing to head to Tianluo Continent in the Great Thousand World with Little Nine Netherbird.

As one of the ten supercontinents of the Great Thousand World, Tianluo Continent was incredibly prosperous.

Numerous top-tier forces competed there.

Supreme Realm experts were everywhere, and Earthly Sovereigns were not uncommon either.

Compared to a remote place like the Northern Heavens Continent, where even Supreme Realm experts could call themselves kings, it was undoubtedly more suitable for cultivation.

"The Luo God Society..."

Mu Chen was stunned. He had not expected Luo Li to have truly come to Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

And she had arrived two months ago.

Did that not mean she had come shortly after the Spirit Road ended?

In just two months, she had attained an extremely high status within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

So much so that even Dean Ta Cang had to grant her special privileges.

Just what had she done!?

Bing Qing, Mu Kui, and the others also wore thoughtful expressions.

They were all freshmen of the same class, yet someone had already risen above the crowd in Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, where geniuses gathered.

Conservatively speaking, her cultivation must have reached the Transforming Heaven Realm as well.

Otherwise, how could she make an older student like An Ran sincerely submit?

"Alright, I need to deal with Yang Hong."

An Ran waved her hand and prepared to leave.

But Mu Chen called out to stop her and could not help asking, "What will happen to Yang Hong?"

That Yang Hong was truly unlucky.

Luo Li had killed him in the Spirit Road, and after he had finally come back to life, he had run into Luo Li again within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

Luo Li did not even need to act personally. It seemed he was about to die again.

But was the Luo King really so formidable that she dared seize a freshman from Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy and kill him?

If word got out, it would likely terrify quite a few people.

Even Yang Hong's family would not let the matter rest.

"You should all just pretend you never saw him."

With those words, An Ran vanished.

That left the many freshmen silent.

They felt that Luo Li, who had entered Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy ahead of them, was likely more than just a student.

Mu Chen clenched his hands and murmured:

"Do I no longer even have the qualifications to stand before you?"

He knew that Yang Hong's fate was bound to be uncertain.

Yet precisely because of that, he found the Silver-haired Girl far too mysterious.

Back in the Spirit Road, he could still stand before her on the Champion's Platform at the finish line.

Though he had not stood out much.

But now, before he had even seen Luo Li, he had already sensed that the distance between them had grown somewhat vast.

If he did not work hard, he might never have another chance to see her in this life.

"Luo King, I will follow in your footsteps and catch up to you, until I can stand before you!"

Mu Chen's pressure immediately transformed into motivation.

Never before had he craved strength as much as he did today.

Within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, a small courtyard stood on a quiet, beautiful island in the middle of a lake.

A tall, graceful figure emerged from the house.

Her dark hair was like ink, her fair skin whiter than snow.

Her willow brows curved gently, and she was as tender as water.

A green dress outlined her perfect figure, lush and pure.

She was the foremost beauty of Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, the only female student in the top ten of the Heavenly RankingSu Xuan!

"Junior Sister Luo Li, I understand what you mean."

Su Xuan sat before a stone table, took a sip of spiritual liquid, and continued:

"While you are away from Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, I will take responsibility for the Luo God Society."

Had anyone else come, she certainly would not have agreed.

She was accustomed to a leisurely life and did not much like the countless troublesome affairs that came with establishing a faction.

But Luo Li had personally come to invite her.

The Luo God Society was rather interesting as well.

Within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, Su Xuan had both the ability and confidence to manage it well.

"Then thank you, Senior Sister Su Xuan."

The great weight in Luo Li's heart finally lifted.

She had been rather worried that Su Xuan would refuse.

If that happened, it would not be right to force her.

To Luo Li, the Luo God Society was an extremely important piece on the board.

It was an important window through which she could gain many geniuses.

The Luo God Clan's predicament was not something she could revitalize in a short time through her own abilities alone.

Moreover, she needed to eliminate the threats posed by external enemies such as the Blood God Clan.

Given the Luo God Clan's current state, its members were truly incapable of being shaped into anything useful.

Relying on them was destined to lead to the clan's destruction.

Therefore, whether it was Luo God City, which dominated the Northern Heavens Continent, or the Luo God Society, the important piece she had placed within Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, both were crucial foundations for Luo Li to confront the Luo God Clan's future crises!

"Once I establish myself on Tianluo Continent, I will certainly invite Senior Sister to join me."

Luo Li's lips curved up slightly. With a firm tone that brooked no dispute, she declared:

"In the future, we will all stand at the summit of the Great Thousand World!"
