As one of the Five Great Sacred Academies in the Soul Martial Continent, the Eastern Heavens Sacred Courtyard naturally had quite a few students who wished to enter within. There were even a few geniuses within the various super empires and Soul Region powers who wished to enter.

And these geniuses, after entering the Five Great Academies, would naturally be diluted, because there were far too many geniuses and monsters here. If one wanted to stand out here, not only talent, but also effort and willpower.

Thus, if he was able to charge out from this encirclement and stand above everyone else, then he would possess the key to truly open the gates of the strong. Perhaps his name would be firmly remembered within the Five Great Academies.

However, for people from the twelve super empires like Xia Hengwu, it was simply too far away. They were currently preparing for their first battle in the Eastern Heavens Holy Academy.

The Freshman Competition was the first battle for every freshman that entered the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy. In this competition, the geniuses and evildoers from various powers would all show their faces in the Freshmen Competition.

Even the top ten demon-level characters of the Hidden Dragon Ranking would also come to watch. They also wanted to know just what kind of powerful character would be ranked amongst the new students this year. Would that person pose a threat to their position on the Hidden Dragon Ranking?

Based on past experience, those freshmen who were able to stand out in this Freshmen Competition would become extremely powerful after a period of training and settling down. It was also possible for those freshmen to surpass older students and occupy the top ten spots on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

However, it had been a long time since such a thing had happened.

After all, the top ten rankings of the Hidden Dragon Rank in the Five Great Academies held an extremely high amount of gold.

Therefore, they also wanted to use this opportunity to see just who these freshmen, who might become fierce people within the Eastern Heavens Divine Academy, were.

It was precisely because of this that news of this matter had already spread within the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy when the Freshmen Competition arrived. Quite a number of older students also began to throw gazes at this place.

Under this kind of gaze, exceptionally dazzling information about geniuses and monsters were naturally known by many older students. Freshmen like Xuan Qing and Li Feisha, who came from Soul Region, naturally attracted the most attention.

Of course, Xuan Qing was the focus of attention amongst them. After all, disciples of the Great Void Sect were extremely attractive.

Xuan Qing's appearance was exceptional. Even Xia Hun Wu sighed with emotion. Even at her age, her delicate face already showed signs of causing trouble for a woman.

Of all the girls that Xia Hun Wu had ever seen, only Hua Rong could stand shoulder to shoulder with him. He had no idea how this Xuan Qing would be able to shake the world in just a few years.

And beneath this beautiful face was an extremely terrifying strength.

Other than Xuan Qing and Li Feisha, Liu Xueyan and Xia Hun Wu also appeared in the eyes of the older students. Liu Changan and Liu Yi were the only ones that could make the difference.

Liu Xuanyan appeared in front of all the older students with the help of Liu Changan's name. After all, Liu Changan was the number one warrior on the Hidden Dragon Rank.

As for Xia Hun Wu, he had appeared to fight against Liu Huai. Although Liu Huai wasn't considered the top within the Eastern Heavens Holy Academy, he still belonged to the upper middle tier. Within the Eastern Heavens Sacred Academy, there were only a few people who could match up to him.

Even with such strength, he was still defeated by Xia Hwu. This surprised many of the older students. It was obvious that many people had assumed he was a dark horse during the Freshman Competition.

As for whether or not these dark horses would be able to shake Xuan Qing and the rest of them, these demons from Soul Region, it all depended on the Freshman Competition.

The Freshman Competition this time around was rather exciting.

As the Freshmen Competition approached, all the freshmen were trying to increase their strength through practice. They used all means at their disposal to make their cultivation stronger before the Freshman Competition began.

This atmosphere of urgent training was extremely thick within the five freshmen areas. Even Xia Hun Wu had to cultivate within the Devouring Array for an entire two months before he was able to walk out.

At this moment, somewhere in the freshmen area, in a spacious central stone hall, there were four figures. Outside of these four figures, there were actually many figures.

In the spacious stone hall, there was a slender youth standing in front of three figures. This youth wore a white robe, and under the sunlight, he appeared exceptionally handsome.

Amongst the three figures, there were two males and one female. The young girl stood tall and straight while the two youths were in high spirits. Under their eyes that were filled with fighting spirit, an enormous amount of soul power emerged.

Naturally, those four people were Xia Hun Wu, Yun Qinghua, Lin Chu, and Ye Yuan. Looking at their appearances, they were clearly planning to spar. They were only going to fight Xia Hun Wu one against three.

In the face of the upcoming Freshman Competition, they also needed to hurry up and increase their strength, and sparring was undoubtedly an extremely quick method.

However, facing people like Xia Hun Wu whose combat power far exceeded their cultivation base, they naturally had to work together to have a chance of victory.

And the youths and young girls surrounding them were obviously members of the Soul Suppressing Hall.

"Do you think big brother Lin Chu and the others can beat big brother Xia?"

"That's hard to say. After all, Brother Xia could defeat Liu Huai with one move. That Liu Huai has a Spirit Stage Level 7 cultivation."

"Although big brother Lin Chu and the rest do not have the cultivation of the Spirit Stage Level 7, they are still infinitely close to it. There should still be a chance right?"

"..."

Whispers rang out from the crowd within the large hall. Many of their eyes were filled with anticipation. The four people in front of them were the strongest four within the Soul Suppressing Hall. The sparring between them would definitely be extremely exciting.

"Buzz!"

Just as everyone was staring at the four figures in front of them, Xia Hun Wu's eyes suddenly narrowed as an image of a Flame Devil emerged above them. Following which, the figure turned into a streak of fiery light and charged towards the Yun siblings at an astonishing speed, bringing about an astonishing soul power fluctuation.

"Buzz!"

The instant the Flame Devil arrived above the three of them, it brought along waves of berserk fire energy and threw out a punch.

"Bam!"

However, just as the Flame Devil Fire Fist was about to strike Yun Qinghang, a shocking arc emerged from the latter's mouth. A soul power light barrier formed by the three of them formed in front of her, blocking in front of her like a shield wall.
