Is there a connection?
Upon hearing the two words spoken by Holy Teacher Yueyao, Li Fufeng pursed his lips slightly.
She and Lin Xuan didn't have any deep entanglement or endless conflict; their time together was limited to a few years at the Azure Yang Sword Sect.
When she entered the Azure Yang Sword Sect, Lin Xuan was already the Peak Master of Starfall Peak.
Then, she witnessed the decline of Starfall Peak, Nangong Yaoyue's departure, and later, the disbandment of Starfall Peak...
Then, unable to accept that her sect had abandoned its disciples out of fear of others' power, she angrily left, embarking on a journey of wandering the Profound Domain, experiencing trials and tribulations along the way, until she was finally taken in by her master...
Her relationship with Lin Xuan was neither particularly deep nor shallow.
As his thoughts slowly returned, Li Fufeng gently shook his head.
"It is I who should be indebted to him."
Fortunately... things didn't backfire.
Even now, she still finds it hard to believe.
Clearly, Lin Xuan wasn't much older than her.
But now, the other party has actually become a Saint Realm expert?
Back in the Profound Domain, he even failed to break through to the King Realm... But after just a few years, it's astonishing and regrettable, and one can't help but wonder how much hardship he endured to reach his current level.
Of course, Li Fufeng was also happy.
I'm happy for Lin Xuan.
My old friend has attained such a high and powerful position; indeed, he is just as outstanding wherever he goes!
The other people from Cang Xuan Holy Heaven were even more astonished; almost everyone was completely stunned.
Saint Realm experts...
How many Saint Realm experts can one encounter in a lifetime?
Moreover, he's capable of killing other Saint Realm experts! And he's so young!
Even among the Saint Realm, he is an absolute prodigy!
I really don't know what level of strength the opponent must have...
Duan Chengshou, who had previously fought with Lin Xuan for the bronze mirror, was completely stunned and terrified after Lin Xuan's identity was revealed.
Now I'm even more dumbfounded.
Even though Lin Xuan didn't cause him any trouble, his mind was filled with deep regret and despair.
What stupid things did I just do?!
He's actually fighting over something with a powerful figure from the Saint Realm?
And what's with the talk of ten times the price?
Ten times the price... are you buying your own life?!
At that moment, cold sweat poured down Duan Chengshou's forehead.
He felt a deep sense of relief.
Thank goodness.
Fortunately, the academy director didn't hold it against me; otherwise, I'd probably be dead by now...
But at the same time, he was also filled with deep regret.
Regardless of the circumstances, he had been looking down on people and offended a Saint Realm expert. There were many people from Cang Xuan Holy Heaven present, including some of whom were of higher status than him. He had no way of asking everyone to help him keep it a secret.
Once word gets out about the ridiculous thing I did today, I'm afraid I won't get any good treatment in Cang Xuan Holy Heaven for the next few years.
Even if Lin Xuan didn't mind, it doesn't mean that others would be willing to accept someone who lacks tact.
It was just a bronze mirror...
It's just a bronze mirror!
"You should all take today's events as a lesson."
Suddenly, Holy Teacher Yueyao spoke. Her gaze did not fall on Duan Chengshou, but Duan Chengshou knew that she was talking about him.
His back bent even lower.
Meanwhile, Holy Teacher Yueyao, having already learned what had happened through the telepathic communication of Saint Master Ling Peiyue, looked at Duan Chengshou with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Lin Xuan may not pursue this matter, but the Cang Xuan Holy Heaven cannot truly pretend that it never happened.
After thinking for a moment, she said, " Duan Chengshou, you have abused your status as a disciple of the Inner Court of Cang Xuan Holy Heaven to bully others and engage in forced buying and selling, which violates the teachings of Cang Xuan Holy Heaven. You are hereby punished to spend five years in the Outer Court. After five years, you will be assessed in the Outer Court. If you advance to the Heavenly Venerable level, you will be able to return to the Inner Court."
"And you..."
She glanced indifferently at the woman hiding behind the crowd.
Although this incident appears to be due to Duan Chengshou's snobbishness and poor judgment, ultimately, it was this woman's silver tongue that persuaded Duan Chengshou take away another man's beloved.
The Holy Heaven is not a fair and impartial holy land.
However, since the person whose property was forcibly taken was a Saint Realm expert, this matter must be taken seriously!
Holy Teacher Yueyao narrowed his eyes and said, "You will also be punished and sent to the outer courtyard, under the same conditions."
The two felt a pang of sorrow, for the resources of the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard were completely different.
However, they also knew that this punishment was relatively lenient.
If it were any other Saint Realm with a bad temper, they might have lost their lives!
Therefore, they didn't dare say anything more and obediently nodded, "... Yes."
The others were also taken aback.
This is the Saint Realm.
You must never offend them easily.
If you accidentally offend someone, even if the Saint Realm expert doesn't retaliate, you will still receive your due punishment.
In the Eastern Continent, the strong have always been respected!
No one can offend the powerful without paying a price.
But after their initial fear and apprehension, their eyes were filled with envy as they looked at Li Fufeng.
Li Fufeng...
They're incredibly lucky!
They all desperately wanted to take his place.
At around twenty years old, he was accepted as a disciple by Holy Teacher Yueyao, the strongest person in Cang Xuan Holy Heaven besides the head of the academy. Moreover, Holy Teacher Yueyao even announced that Li Fufeng would be her last disciple.
She will not accept any other disciples.
Not only was she favored by her master and fellow disciples, but she was also very talented, advancing in rank several times in a short period of time.
Originally, compared to other students in the Cang Xuan Holy Heaven, Li Fufeng had some shortcomings.
That's her background!
Aside from her fellow disciples in the Cang Xuan Holy Heaven, she had nothing, and no powerful backers.
But now, everything is different.
What kind of powerful backer could compare to a Saint Realm expert?
How can cultivators be so lucky!
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Soon, the events for the second round of the Ten Institutes Grand Competition were officially announced.
Round two.
One-on-one battles.
The two teams to compete Holy Heaven Association Society. Participants who win ten matches will advance and qualify for the third round of the competition.
The competition officially began at 5:00 AM!
The moment the elders of the Holy Heaven Society announced the start of the competition, Chang Yao, the dean of the Golden Feather Holy Heaven Holy Heaven Association, looked in Bai Wuya's direction.
He casually curled his lips into a slightly odd smile.
Then, he spoke slowly and silently.
'You're definitely going to lose the bet!'
In contrast, Bai Wuya remained calm and composed in the direction of the Primordial Holy Heaven, not even bothering to glance at the other party, and steadily shifted his gaze away.
In the past, he might have been a little anxious, but now, after talking with Lin Xuan again...
We'll see!
