Almost everyone present looked in Lin Xuan's direction, their eyes filled with either disdain, surprise, or unbridled mockery.
The man who spoke first looked at Lin Xuan with sneer.
He sneered and sent a mocking message to the person next to him.
"Could this kid think that just because that wanted remnant of the demonic cult is Emperor Realm, he can get involved too?"
"That young master of the Karmic Fire Demon Cult, although only at the peak of the Perfect Emperor Realm, is no match for ordinary Venerable. Not long ago, he even killed three Venerable Realm students."
"Even we, as Venerable, are not entirely confident that we can complete this mission. How dare he, a mere Emperor Realm cultivator, try to get a share of the spoils?"
"That's absolutely ridiculous!"
"Don't worry about him. He won't even know how he died, and it's none of our business anyway."
Their eyes met in mid-air, and they quickly determined their positions.
Looking at Lin Xuan again, it was no different from looking at someone who was courting death.
Isn't that just courting death?
Such strength dares to attempt this kind of mission?
Tsk!
But the two of them only communicated telepathically, without saying anything extra.
After all, they didn't know Lin Xuan.
What does it matter to them whether Lin Xuan lives or dies?
The woman beside him, however, frowned slightly, looked at Lin Xuan, shook her head in disapproval, and spoke in a low voice.
"Junior brother, I advise you to give up on this mission."
"This mission concerning the Karmic Fire Demon Cult is not as simple as you think."
Now that she had said it, she no longer held back.
She explained it carefully.
"That young master of the Karmic Fire Demon Cult Sect, though only at the Perfect Emperor Realm, has killed many Venerable, and some of our academy's students have even fallen victim to his cruelty."
"Therefore, the task concerning this young master was assigned to our Supreme Institute."
"Although this mission is open to students at the Emperor Realm level, as you've seen, apart from you, no other Emperor Realm dares to take it."
The woman sighed softly and rubbed her temples wearily.
"That remnant of the Karmic Fire Demon Cult is even stronger."
"That's why the reward for this mission is so high."
At first, no one took this young master of the remnants of the family seriously.
The reward offered by the college was not much.
The reason things have turned out this way is because the young master of the Karmic Fire Demon Cult, a remnant of the sect, killed several Venerable Realm students during his escape.
The college was furious.
The rewards for his wanted missions also increased accordingly.
Along with the increased rewards, the level of danger in this mission has also risen.
It's important to understand that the students of Holy Heaven are not simply ordinary Venerable.
Everyone who can be here is a prodigy.
Even the most outstanding among the most outstanding.
In the outside world, they would be able to crush their peers.
But that young master... he actually managed to kill several students at the Venerable Realm!
It's easy to imagine how terrifying his strength is.
After hearing what the woman had to say, Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
No wonder he only looked surprised and disdainful when he saw others arrive.
So that's how it is.
Do you feel that your level of expertise is too low, and you are not qualified to take on such a task?
That's only human nature...
For an ordinary cultivator at the Perfect Emperor Realm, going there would truly be suicide—as the previous few students at the Venerable Realm have already proven.
However, Lin Xuan is no ordinary Emperor Realm.
If that young master of the remnants didn't have the strength of the Thearch Realm, let alone injuring him, it would be absolutely impossible for him to even escape from his grasp.
Therefore, even after the woman in yellow told him, Lin Xuan still shook his head slightly; he really needed the mission reward.
"Thank you for letting me know, senior. I understand, but I don't want to give up on this task."
His tone was grateful, but his meaning was also very firm.
"Ah?"
The woman in yellow was slightly taken aback.
She hadn't expected that even after explaining things so clearly, this unfamiliar junior brother still wouldn't give up.
She frowned slightly in exasperation, but then had no choice but to shut her mouth.
She has said everything she needed to say.
What else can be said?
The two men beside him sneered upon hearing this.
In their view, this is a damned ghost that can't be reasoned with.
In their eyes, Lin Xuan had gone from a freshman who had no idea of his own strength to a slacker who was willing to risk his life to complete missions.
snort...
One of them let out a cold snort, looking at Lin Xuan as if he were already dead.
Want to get free missions? That's easy enough, isn't it?
There are tons of people like that!
I just don't know if I'll survive this long!
Lin Xuan, of course, didn't care what others thought of him.
For him, the reward for this mission was something he absolutely had to claim, and no matter what others said, he would not waver because of their opinions.
Just as the atmosphere on the field was becoming somewhat tense, everyone suddenly heard the tinkling sound of jade pendants.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a stunningly beautiful young woman in white, holding a sword, walking towards them step by step.
Her arrival surprised everyone present.
It wasn't just because of her extraordinary aura and soaring Sword Intent, but also because the woman's face was all too familiar to the people of the academy.
The woman in yellow blurted it out.
" Sword Fairy!"
Sword Fairy?
Lin Xuan looked at the girl with a hint of familiarity, a touch of curiosity in his eyes.
The person who came was none other than Duan Nianwei, who had interacted with Lin Xuan Lin Xuan "gave him pointers" in the giant sword formation before.
Lin Xuan recognized the other person after just one glance.
The two academy members standing nearby, one in gray and one in black, also recognized the Sword Fairy.
Unlike their reaction to Lin Xuan, their faces were now filled with shock.
Sword Fairy!
It's actually the Sword Fairy!
She actually took on this task too?
hiss!
After the initial shock came joy.
Their eyes met, and they gleaned a single message from each other's gazes.
'Now we're safe!'
How could anyone in the Supreme Institute not recognize Sword Fairy Duan Nianwei?
She is one of the top talents in the current Supreme Institute.
In terms of strength, Duan Nianwei might not even rank among the top in the Supreme Institute.
But in terms of potential, she's definitely among the top few!
At the young age of seventeen, he had already comprehended the fourth level of perfect Sword Intent.
Such potential and talent are nothing short of extraordinary.
What will happen in a few years!?
She is definitely one of the future leaders of the Supreme Institute!
With her around, this mission will most likely be completed easily!
They were initially a little worried.
After all, this mission is extraordinary.
Although they were all Venerable in strength, they weren't very confident in facing the infamous remnants of the Demonic Sect.
If the reward hadn't been so tempting, the two of them wouldn't have originally planned to take the risk.
I never expected that the Sword Fairy would also accept this mission. Now, there's definitely no problem!
Although Sword Fairy Duan Nianwei's realm was the same as theirs, her strength was completely incomparable!
Even ordinary Earth Venerable Realm experts might not be her match.
"Um."
Duan Nianwei nodded gently in response to their calls.
She didn't say much.
The Sword Fairy's aloof reputation is well-known, so being able to carry out a mission with her is already a pleasant surprise. Even the two male students didn't find anything wrong with Duan Nianwei's attitude.
Duan Nianwei accepted the task not entirely for the reward.
The reason she accepted the mission was because there had been recent news that the three Venerable Realm students who died had all suffered fatal sword wounds.
Judging from this... that young master of the remnants of the demonic sect must also be a powerful sword cultivator!
Duan Nianwei immediately became interested.
Being able to spar with powerful sword cultivators, hone her skills, increase her cultivation level, and accumulate experience in the process, is what she desires most.
Duan Nianwei's sword is a sharp sword, a drawn sword, a sword that charges forward without hesitation.
Each battle, each clash between life and death, served as a testing ground for her to hone her Sword Dao.
So, she came.
After looking around, Duan Nianwei also saw Lin Xuan.
She was slightly taken aback.
