C15

"Get the corresponding number. Let's start!" Xiao Qing He pointed at the arena behind him and laughed when he saw that everyone had finished drawing lots.

Xia Hun Wu looked at the bamboo lot in his hand. On it, there was a black ink character '1'. Then, he lifted up the bamboo lot. Upon seeing this, the others also raised their bamboo sticks.

"Even if we're lucky, we won't be able to block it!" A young man with a smile that didn't reach his eyes was looking at Xia Hun Wu with a smile on his face. He then proudly waved the bamboo stick in his hand. The numbers on the bamboo stick were the same as Xia Hun Wu's.

"Li Yun?"

Staring at the blue-haired youngster who was confident that he could defeat him, Xia Hun Wu gave a helpless smile.

Back then, Li Yun had bullied him quite a bit. If it were not for his grandfather's support back then, this fellow would probably have truly wanted to kill him.

"Hehe, since you think that I am so easy to bully, then I will not hold back in the future. New grudges and old grudges, let's settle them thoroughly this time."

"Wow, my luck isn't that good, right?"

Just as Xia Hun Wu secretly decided to teach him a lesson, the face of the youth next to him paled. He also knew this Xia Hun Wu, his name was Li Fan, and was from the Li Clan.

"How could my opponent be that freak Xia Ze!" Li Fan's face was pale as he shook his head with a wry smile.

Among the twelve people, Xia Ze's strength was the strongest on the surface. Not only did he open two meridians of the Soul Duo Realm, but he also awakened his Destiny Soul Beast.

"It's fine. Didn't Principal Xiao say just now that if you perform well, you could be nominated to the Five Great Academies." Normally, Xia Hun Wu had quite a good relationship with Li Fan. Soon after, he patted Li Fan's shoulder and looked towards the two elders, Feng and Lei, who were on the judge's stage.

"Really?" Li Fan hurriedly asked.

Xia Hun Wu nodded and said, "Of course, but you will have to try and see for yourself how you will perform!"

Li Fan nodded his head in gratitude. It was not easy for him to obtain a spot in the Li Clan's competition. If he failed this time, the Li Clan would look down on him. In the future, it would be even more difficult to obtain a spot in the preliminaries.

"BOOM!"

Li Fan and a few others looked at the bamboo sticks in their hands before slowly retreating. Since there was a "one" imprinted on Xia Hun Wu's bamboo sticks, the first round would be the battle between Xia Hun Wu and Li Yun.

As the few of them retreated, countless number of gazes instantly gathered on the two figures in the arena.

"Hehe, I didn't expect my family's Yun'er to be so lucky to have met Xia Hun Wu!" Li Xuan looked at the two people in the arena and slowly smiled.

Xia He, on the other hand, was ashen. Just now, this fellow had actually dared to ignore him? "A guy who hasn't even awakened his soul veins. I wonder what kind of face he has on this stage. I wonder what the other two elders are thinking. What a waste of a slot."

"Brother Xia, don't say that. Didn't our Li Fan also give your Xia Clan a free place?" Li Xuan slowly said, "If it's like this, then our Li Clan and your Xia Clan will surely obtain a placing to enter the Five Great Academies."

Summer River, who was at the side, heard this and nodded his head in tacit agreement.

"As long as Xia Ze enters the Five Great Academies, the rumours and things that he has done in the past few days will be suppressed. Even if the other two Elders come out of seclusion, it would be nothing."

"Xia Hun Wu, Xia Hun Wu, you can only blame yourself for having such a trashy talent. Even if you have a little bit of talent, with the Xia family's resources, it'll be enough to send you to the Soul Suppressing Orb."

"Sometimes people's luck is really good. Li Fan is much stronger than me, but when he meets Xia Ze, it's the same as when he meets a cat."

In the center of the ring, Li Yun was looking at Xia Hun Wu with a smile. Everyone in the Cloud Sea City knew that not only did he have no soul power, he also had no soul veins.

Xia Hun Wu looked at Li Yun with a face full of ridicule. He could not help but shake his head helplessly. Did this guy really think he was the same as before?

"I say, can you stop talking?" Xia Hun Wu sighed and said.

"Trash, after disappearing for a few days, your temper has increased?" It was the first time Li Yun saw Xia Hengwu's arrogant attitude. Back then, when Xia Yuan was still alive, hehe!

"Xia Hun Wu, did you really think your grandfather would jump out from the coffin to protect you?" This piece of trash left your grandfather, you are nothing, today I will let you see what is called a flower with a hundred suns! "

Li Yun let out a cold cry and a powerful soul power surged out from within his body. The strength of the soul power vaguely showed signs of advancing into the second level of the Spirit Dou Stage.

"Whoosh!"

With a tap of his feet, his body became like a charging leopard. Soul force surged on his palm and a vaguely hot fluctuation spread outwards.

"Wind Fire Palm!"

Li Yun rushed toward Xia Hun Wu from the front. From the center of his palm, a flame condensed and formed into a small tornado. It carried a strong and forceful wind as it fiercely flew towards Xia Hun Wu's chest.

"Human Grade Two soul art, Wind Fire Palm?" Xia Hun Wu casually glanced at the burning flame between his palms as he muttered.

He raised his left hand slightly!

"Pah!"

A clear voice suddenly resounded around the arena. Lin Yun's palm that had furiously slapped out seemed to have frozen. He was slightly dazed as he looked at the tall and straight youth in front of him. Soon after, a fiery and stinging pain spread across his face.

He was actually slapped in the face by this trash who hadn't even awakened his soul veins yet?

"This...!"

Numerous exclamations of surprise erupted outside of the arena. Many people did not know what had happened. All they saw was a palm imprint gradually appearing on Li Yun's face and the crisp sound of a slap.

"This guy, it's not like he couldn't even open his soul veins, why …!"

On the stage, a few people familiar with Xia Hun Wu exclaimed in shock. They knew this guy didn't even have soul power. Could it be that he was patiently waiting for this day to come?

"You … You! I'll f * cking kill you. "

Although he did not know what had happened, the stinging pain on his face caused Li Yun's eyes to turn scarlet red. With a hideous expression as he stared at Xia Hewwu, all the soul power in his body gushed out without reservation. The flame in his palm once again condensed and shot towards Xia Hun Wu.
