Chapter 150 Outer Court Promotion Tournament
"Although I, Leng Yun, am new here, if anyone dislikes me or has a grudge against me, I, Leng Yun, will gladly oblige. I don't need to do anything underhanded." Leng Yun looked at Ding Chang and said this loudly.
The area around the cave suddenly became much quieter, and even the air seemed to freeze.
The fact that Ding Daxiong was killed by Leng Yun was no secret, so many people knew about the feud between Leng Yun and Ding Chang.
Ding Chang's face turned bright red as he took a step forward: "You little brat, if I don't teach you a lesson, you'll really think you're invincible!"
The atmosphere was extremely tense. Everyone was staring at the two of them, and it seemed that a fierce battle was about to begin!
"stop!"
The elderly voice of Vice Dean Bai Shu rang out again, stopping the impending fight between the two.
This unexpected turn of events left many of the disciples present feeling somewhat disappointed, as if a thrilling duel had slipped through their fingers.
"The outer court advancement competition will be held in three days. Anyone who wants to compete can do so at that time," Bai Shu said, knowing full well that a battle between the two of them was inevitable.
However, as for who he hopes will win, Bai Shu has already made his choice.
He looked at Leng Yun kindly and said softly, "You are a talented young man. I hope to see you in the inner academy soon."
Leng Yun smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Vice Dean."
Then he turned to look at Fire Monk: "Fire Monk, let's meet again in a year."
After saying that, Leng Yun left the cave under everyone's gaze, followed by the equally icy Murong Qin.
The matter of White Fire Cave thus came to an end. Leng Yun has now become a celebrity in the entire outer academy, the only disciple in history to have entered White Fire Cave without dying.
To reward Leng Yun for his contributions, Elder Liu and the others awarded him another 200 Fist God Points.
Although Leng Yun didn't know what the Fist God Value was for, he had heard that it was the most precious thing in the inner courtyard.
Besides Ding Chang, the person most dissatisfied with everything about Leng Yun was also the young prince of the royal family, Nangong Jue.
He should have been the most glamorous freshman in this year's class, but everything was taken away by Leng Yun.
This is ironic, as Nangong Jue tried to make a name for himself but always lost face; while Leng Yun wanted to keep a low profile, but unknowingly became a prominent figure in the outer courtyard.
Another thing that made Nangong Jue jealous was Murong Qin. He didn't know what was so good about Leng Yun, and why Murong Qin would go to Leng Yun's room and stay for so long every night.
Rumors had already begun circulating among the students of the Foreign Languages Department, with many envying Leng Yun's good fortune with women.
This left Leng Yun somewhat amused and exasperated, but Murong Qin seemed to be completely oblivious to such things, and continued to visit Leng Yun's room every day to look at the little rabbits.
Over the course of three days, the most discussed topic in the outer courtyard was the battle between Leng Yun and Ding Chang.
Everyone knew that the two would definitely have a big battle in the foreign language department's qualifying rounds.
On one side is the dark horse of this year's freshmen, and on the other side is Ding Chang, a veteran of several years.
Even if Ding Chang's talent is not as good as Leng Yun's, he has spent several years at the Fist God Academy, so his cultivation is naturally stronger than Leng Yun's. Therefore, most people believe that Ding Chang has a better chance of winning this battle.
Some people have already started to secretly bet on who will win, but Leng Yun's odds are obviously very high, indicating that everyone thinks Leng Yun will lose.
This matter has even reached the inner court.
"My brother told me that the inner court is secretly using Fist God Points as stakes, but like us, the people in the inner court think Leng Yun's chances of winning are slim," an outer court disciple said mysteriously to the people around him.
Now, wherever Leng Yun goes, he attracts everyone's attention. People look at him with pity, as if he is going to lose miserably in the upcoming outer court promotion competition.
……
Three days later, at Fist God Valley and Fist God Academy.
In the main square of the outer courtyard, there was a huge arena with nearly a hundred people standing there, looking like a dark mass.
These are all contestants who participated in the Foreign Languages Department's qualifying round.
Due to the large number of participants, the qualifying rounds were not round-based. Instead, all participants took to the stage for a free-for-all until only 20 people remained on the stage, who then qualified to enter the inner academy.
The rules are so simple, yet they are highly efficient and useful.
After the melee, the remaining participants can challenge each other. The winners enter the Fist God Academy, while the losers are still disqualified.
The academy does this in order to subtly improve the abilities of its new students.
In reality, securing a place in the top 20 is enough; very few people would risk challenging that unless they have a deep-seated grudge.
Take, for example, Leng Yun and Ding Chang this year.
At this moment, Leng Yun was standing in a corner of the arena, next to Murong Qin.
Leng Yun wanted to move into the inner courtyard, but Murong Qin only wanted to move in with Leng Yun because of the little rabbit.
The disciples surrounding Leng Yun were usually fellow disciples, but today they had all become enemies, and none of them would show any mercy in the advancement competition.
A person in such an environment can improve very quickly.
Ding Chang was in another corner, coldly watching Leng Yun. This year's outer court promotion competition was the last one he would participate in before he was over the age limit, and he was very confident that he could enter the inner court.
What pleased him even more was that he could make a big splash in his qualifying match by defeating the arrogant Leng Yun.
Meanwhile, Nangong Jue, standing in the crowd, stared at Leng Yun with a gloomy expression. He was jealous that Murong Qin was standing next to Leng Yun, and jealous that Leng Yun always became the center of attention, no matter the occasion.
With everyone preoccupied with their own thoughts, a tense atmosphere subtly rose across the arena.
Outside the arena, the three elders of the outer courtyard watched this important battle from their high vantage points.
The outer court disciples, who knew their own abilities were inferior, surrounded the contestants on the stage with envy.
However, most of these people came to see the battle between Leng Yun and Ding Chang, because they had all placed bets on it.
Seeing that the time was up, Elder Liu nodded to the starter.
"Boom!"
With the sound of a drum, the Foreign Languages Department's qualifying rounds officially began!
Chaos immediately erupted on the entire arena.
The crowd on the arena began to fight haphazardly. In an instant, all sorts of fist energies appeared on the arena, mixed with various shouts.
Leng Yun used flames to protect himself. The high temperature of the flames even kept everyone away from his position, so Leng Yun was safe for the time being.
Experts like Ding Chang and Nangong Jue are not the first people to attack.
The first to be knocked off the stage were those new disciples who overestimated themselves and came to participate. They did not have Leng Yun's cultivation level and were quickly and cruelly swept out.
With about fifty people remaining, the battle intensified, and some of the experts on the field began to be challenged.
Leng Yun was able to repel the first wave of attacks due to the presence of flames, but he knew in his heart that as the number of people decreased, he would soon be attacked as well.
As Leng Yun was pondering, a thought suddenly struck her, and she felt a gust of wind behind her head.
He suddenly turned around and saw three fist energies rushing towards him!
