The crowd in the arena was stunned.
An inner courtyard elder, erased just like that?
In that moment, the students’ faces grew extremely grave, tinged with deep apprehension!
This guy was an absolute freak!
On the other side, the man in white narrowed his eyes. “I misjudged him!”
The woman in blue said expressionlessly, “Your eyes have always been blind!”
The man in white’s face darkened.
In the distance, Mo Shan was dumbfounded!
He realised he had provoked someone he shouldn’t have!
Xiao Yuan was no ordinary person; he was an elder, at Half-Step Divine Knowledge realm, yet he had been instantly killed!
Mo Shan looked at Ye Xuan, his eyes filled with dread!
Ye Xuan smiled. “Young Master Mo Shan, Miss Xing Ling told you to stop bothering her! Any problem with that?”
Mo Shan glanced at Ye Xuan and said, “No problem!”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Then you can leave!”
Mo Shan didn’t move!
Because nearby, a black-robed elder approached!
The elder walked up to Ye Xuan and Xing Ling. Seeing him, Xing Ling said gravely, “Elder Lan Shan! He oversees the Disciplinary Court!”
Ye Xuan smiled slightly. “It’s fine!”
Xing Ling glanced at Ye Xuan but said nothing.
Lan Shan looked at Ye Xuan. After a moment, he said softly, “Are you alright?”
Are you alright?
His words stunned everyone in the arena!
Are you alright?
Ye Xuan was the one who killed someone, wasn’t he?
And Elder Lan Shan was asking if Ye Xuan was alright?
What kind of move was this?
Ye Xuan smiled. “I’m fine!”
Lan Shan nodded slightly. He opened his palm, and a token floated to Ye Xuan. “Next time you run into trouble, activate this token!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “Alright!”
He took the token!
Lan Shan nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave!
The crowd was utterly bewildered!
Mo Shan was equally stunned!
He had thought Lan Shan would uphold justice, but he never expected this outcome!
Ye Xuan looked at Mo Shan. “Anything else?”
Mo Shan hurriedly said, “Nothing more!”
He fled as if escaping!
The crowd looked at Ye Xuan, their expressions turning strange!
In truth, they didn’t know Ye Xuan had come through the testing platform, as Galaxy Academy had sealed all information!
Mainly because Ye Xuan’s performance was too outrageous!
A wave of his hand, and an ancient titan’s soul was erased!
It was too absurd!
Thus, aside from a few core elders, no one knew Ye Xuan had entered Galaxy Academy via the testing platform!
Soon, Ye Xuan and the others entered the main hall.
The assembly began!
The so-called assembly was essentially a seminar, mostly discussing cultivation matters.
Though Galaxy Academy differed from other academies, cultivation was still the focus here. In this world where strength reigned, power was paramount!
During the assembly, some began actively befriending Ye Xuan and Xing Ling!
Ye Xuan welcomed all, engaging with them warmly!
Those who could enter Galaxy Academy were no ordinary people. He could scout them for recruitment to Guanxuan Academy later!
At that moment, the man in white and the woman in blue approached Ye Xuan and Xing Ling. The man smiled slightly. “Brother Ye, Miss Xing Ling, let’s get acquainted. I’m Xue Bai, and this is my sister, Xue Tong!”
Ye Xuan clasped his fists. “Pleased to meet you!”
Xue Bai blinked. “Brother Ye, you know us?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Not before, but Brother Xue Bai is likely the top inner courtyard student, right?”
Xue Bai appeared to be at the Future Path realm but was actually at Divine Knowledge, hiding his true realm. How could he fool Ye Xuan’s eyes?
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, a hint of surprise flashed in Xue Bai’s eyes. He smiled. “Brother Ye is indeed no ordinary person!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Brother Xue Bai, by rights, you should be a true disciple. Why are you in the inner courtyard?”
Xue Bai smiled. “In half a month, I’ll be a true disciple!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled. “How so?”
Xue Bai said, “Brother Ye, you’re new to the academy and unfamiliar with its rules. Let me explain! Everyone joining the academy must climb step by step. To become a true disciple, you need to rely on your own efforts and pass the assessment. In half a month, the assessment begins, so, barring surprises, I should become a true disciple then!”
He paused, then added, “Actually, there’s another way to quickly become a true disciple: pass the testing platform. Defeat that ancient titan’s soul, and you can directly become a true disciple!”
Ye Xuan’s face darkened instantly.
He had come through the testing platform, so why was he only an inner courtyard disciple?
Damn it!
He felt cheated!
Xue Bai continued, “Brother Ye, you’ll join the assessment too, right?”
Ye Xuan snapped back to reality. “True disciple?”
Xue Bai nodded. “Yes!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “Sure!”
Xue Bai smiled. “Then let’s do it together!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Good!”
At that moment, Xue Tong suddenly asked, “Young Master Ye, are you a sword cultivator?”
Sword cultivator!
Xue Bai immediately looked at Ye Xuan, eyes full of curiosity!
Ye Xuan smiled. “Yes!”
Sword cultivator!
Xue Tong nodded slightly, thoughtful.
Sword cultivator!
Since ancient times, sword cultivators’ combat strength was terrifying! But Ye Xuan’s personality didn’t quite match. The sword cultivators she knew were cold and aloof.
After the assembly, Ye Xuan made many connections. He had to admit, these people were impressive. Types like Mo Shan were the minority!
Now, he looked at them like they were his future students!
At night, the assembly ended, and everyone left!
On a small path, Ye Xuan and Xing Ling walked slowly!
Under the starry sky, a bright moon hung with scattered stars.
Xing Ling smiled. “Young Master Ye, I noticed you’re quite good at socialising, and you’re very approachable!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Miss Xing Ling, will you join the true disciple assessment in half a month?”
Xing Ling nodded. “Yes! Only true disciples get better resources. Inner courtyard resources aren’t enough!”
She looked at Ye Xuan. “Young Master Ye, my gut tells me you don’t care about being a true disciple, do you?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Xing Ling was puzzled. “Then why…”
Ye Xuan thought, then said, “Remember what I said before? I came to see this Galaxy Realm!”
Xing Ling stopped, staring at Ye Xuan. “Are you serious?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Of course!”
Xing Ling’s expression was complex. “Young Master Ye, you’re truly mysterious!”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile. He looked into the distance, where a woman stood!
Fei Yu!
Fei Yu approached them, smiling. “Mind if I join?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Not at all!”
Fei Yu nodded. “I’ve looked into the earlier incident. It wasn’t your fault; they provoked you!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “I went a bit far. Next time, I’ll try not to kill!”
Fei Yu laughed. “You said it!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Yes!”
Fei Yu said seriously, “You’re at Divine Knowledge realm, right?”
Ye Xuan blinked. “Sort of!”
Fei Yu glared at him. “What’s ‘sort of’? Yes or no!”
Ye Xuan laughed. “Not quite!”
Fei Yu sighed softly. “You slippery guy!”
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Shouldn’t passing the testing platform make me a true disciple?”
Fei Yu glared again. “What, you’re dissatisfied with me?”
Ye Xuan was speechless.
Fei Yu laughed. “Don’t rush! If you became a true disciple right upon entering, it wouldn’t be good. With your strength, passing the true disciple assessment will be easy, won’t it?”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile. “Fine!”
Fei Yu nodded. “The true disciple assessment is in half a month. Prepare for it!”
She opened her palm, and two time-space crystals floated to Ye Xuan and Xing Ling. “Enough for half a month of training. Go cultivate!”
Xing Ling bowed respectfully. “Thank you, Master!”
She took the crystal.
Fei Yu looked at Ye Xuan. He hesitated, then took the crystal too!
Fei Yu blinked. “Do you look down on it?”
Ye Xuan quickly shook his head. “Not at all! I just want to read books. I’m not too focused on cultivation!”
Fei Yu said gravely, “You’re a sword cultivator, right?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Fei Yu smiled. “Years ago, the dean left a sword manual in the academy. Interested?”
Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed. “Dean Gu Baiyue?”
Fei Yu nodded. “Yes!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Interested!”
Fei Yu nodded. “Follow me! I’ll take you to a special place!”
She led Ye Xuan and Xing Ling into the distance.
Soon, they arrived before a pavilion. Ye Xuan looked at it; above the first floor were two large characters: Martial Pavilion!
Fei Yu smiled. “This place isn’t for ordinary people, but you two are exceptions!”
She led Ye Xuan into the hall. Upon entering, a black-robed elder appeared. Fei Yu flashed a token, and the elder bowed slightly before leaving.
Fei Yu turned to Ye Xuan and Xing Ling. “Follow me!”
She led them upstairs.
Soon, they reached the top floor.
Ye Xuan glanced around. There were only six stone pillars, each with an iron box!
Ye Xuan looked at Fei Yu, who smiled. “Choose one!”
Ye Xuan smiled, walked to a pillar, and opened the box. Seeing the contents, he froze in shock. “What the hell?”
