"What do you want?" Aotian stared at the expert ranked tenth on the Inner Courtyard Rankings and said in a deep voice.
"Very simple, go to the Duel Arena and have a match with me. The loser must kneel and admit defeat in front of all the Students!" Wang Jie said with a sinister expression.
Aotian's expression changed slightly, but he quickly replied coldly, "I accept your challenge! See you at the Duel Arena tomorrow morning!"
Both Wang Jie and Aotian knew that this was not the best time for a confrontation.
There were rules in Xuantian Academy; Students had to duel in the Duel Arena, or they would be punished for humiliating their peers, which could lead to severe consequences.
Thus, although Aotian and Wang Jie both wanted to defeat each other right away, reason ultimately prevailed.
After Aotian accepted his challenge, Wang Jie let out a cold laugh. He then fixed his gaze on Snow Qincheng and said, "Sister Xue Qingcheng, your three-month bet with my boss hasn't expired yet. I hope you won't interfere in the matters between Mo and Aotian."
Snow Qincheng's expression turned cold, as if she wanted to refute him, but Aotian pulled her back and said to Wang Jie, "Don't worry, Xue Qingcheng won't interfere in our affairs."
Wang Jie looked at Aotian and Snow Qincheng, feeling somewhat puzzled. Snow Qincheng listened to Aotian so obediently, and their way of addressing each other seemed quite intimate. Could it be that there was some ambiguous relationship between them?
Thinking of this, Wang Jie looked at Aotian with jealousy and mockery in his eyes. Jealous of Aotian for winning the heart of a beauty, mocking him as if he were overestimating himself...
"Well then, see you tomorrow. In the Duel Arena, Aotian, I will make you aware of our differences."
With that, Wang Jie led the members of Mo away into the distance.
In the courtyard, Aotian and Snow Qincheng stood side by side.
After a long while, Snow Qincheng sighed:
"Aotian, are you really going to make a move against Wang Jie tomorrow?"
Aotian was playing with a leaf in his hand. Upon hearing Snow Qincheng's question, he chuckled lightly:
"I've already promised Wang Jie. Am I supposed to go back on my word now? Besides, I just joined Xuantian Academy, and I became an Inner Academy Student right away. This is bound to make many students unhappy. Tomorrow, I'll make an example out of him to avoid future troubles."
Snow Qincheng said with some concern:
"Wang Jie is ranked tenth in the Inner Courtyard Rankings; his strength shouldn't be underestimated. You must be careful tomorrow."
Aotian looked at Snow Qincheng with a half-smile and said:
"Xue Qingcheng, it seems like you care about me?"
Snow Qincheng was slightly taken aback and then retorted angrily:
"I couldn't care less about your life or death!"
Aotian did not respond, but the teasing in his eyes grew stronger.
Snow Qincheng's cheeks turned slightly red, seemingly unable to tolerate the ambiguous atmosphere around them. She immediately walked towards the courtyard exit, saying as she walked:
"Those who duel in the Duel Arena usually wager Contribution Points as stakes. The winner gets to take the loser's Contribution Points, and you absolutely cannot kill your opponent in the Duel Arena; you know the academy's rules..."
Soon, Snow Qincheng's figure disappeared from Aotian's courtyard. However, what Aotian did not see was that Snow Qincheng's ears had turned red...
Aotian sat cross-legged in his room, quietly activating the Heaven Devouring Seal, continuously absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Profound Qi.
Then, waves of rich Heaven and Earth Profound Qi surged into Aotian's body, nourishing his limbs and bones. Soon after, it returned to the Golden Energy Sphere in Aotian's Dantian, and with each influx of pure profound energy, the color of the Golden Energy Sphere became increasingly brilliant.
Aotian understood that he had completely offended the Ink Society, and tomorrow he would have to battle Wang Jie again, with even stronger opponents from the Ink Society waiting for him ahead.
Therefore, Aotian needed to strengthen his abilities in the shortest time possible. He was racing against time, wasting not a single moment.
Time slowly passed, and night fell quickly.
The once bustling Xuantian Academy should have quieted down completely, but many students were still walking along the main road at night, and their destination was... the Duel Arena!
Wang Jie, ranked tenth on the Inner Courtyard Rankings, was challenging a newly admitted student, Aotian. This news had spread throughout Xuantian Academy, and countless students were heading toward the Duel Arena.
Their late-night visit to the Duel Arena was naturally to secure a good spot to watch the match.
Although most students did not hold high hopes for Aotian, witnessing a top-ten ranked student in action was worth the trip.
These students were all Innate Realm martial artists and could easily stay awake for several nights. Thus, they went early to the Duel Arena to grab good positions, lest they find no place to watch the next day.
Deep within Xuantian Academy stood a massive hall. Inside the hall, two figures stood side by side, gazing into the academy's inner area as if they could see the comings and goings at the Duel Arena.
"This kid has only been at the academy for a day and has already caused such a stir. Sigh, it seems he is not one to settle down..." After a long while, a middle-aged voice sighed lightly.
"Director, is it true that Aotian was introduced by the Grand Elder?" asked another middle-aged voice.
"Indeed, it was a recommendation letter from the Grand Elder; it's absolutely genuine," Xue Haoyang affirmed.
"Well then, I must go see what qualifications this kid has to catch the Grand Elder's eye," said the middle-aged man beside Xue Haoyang with curiosity.
"Then tomorrow's duel between these two youngsters will require you, as Vice Director, to make an appearance," Xue Haoyang chuckled lightly.
"Alright, I will personally oversee the Duel Arena tomorrow!"
If Snow Qincheng were here, they would definitely recognize the middle-aged man standing next to Xue Haoyang as Lin Chaoqun, the Vice Dean of Xuantian Academy.
Time passed quickly, and soon the rising sun began to ascend from the horizon. Meanwhile, the students at Xuantian Academy were in complete uproar...
Countless figures were heading towards the Duel Arena. Even before the two main characters arrived, the vast Duel Arena was already surrounded by a throng of students.
In a courtyard room, Aotian slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of brilliance flashing in his gaze. He then exhaled a breath of turbid air and stretched his muscles. Immediately, he felt a slight increase in the power within him.
"The Heaven Devouring Seal is indeed terrifying..." Aotian murmured.
Without the Heaven Devouring Seal, Aotian's progress would have been impossible at such a rapid pace.
Thinking of the Heaven Devouring Seal reminded Aotian of his teacher, Flame Monk, who was receiving his inheritance in the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone.
"Teacher, Sister Yan, I will soon reach the Innate Peak realm. At that time, we will be able to meet again..."
