Five days later, the sky had just turned bright and the Heavenly Academy was bustling with noise and excitement.
Numerous Elite Student gathered in the plaza in front of Heavenly Academy, and stood orderly according to the rankings.
A huge battle stage had already been set up around the plaza.
After waiting for a while, a few figures also walked in, led by an old man. Gu Xuan was familiar with this old man, and it was the King Level Expert who previously brought them to the Desolate Ruins.
Behind him were five people, and in the end, four of them were dressed in white robes, respectfully standing behind the first person in the city, as if they were servants. However, from the imposing manner of these four people, it was obvious that they were experts in Sovereign Level.
Each of the four Sovereign Level students was given the title of a first class marquis by the imperial government, but they willingly followed the person in front of them.
In the entire Yingtian Institution, only the four legendary kings could do such a thing. The one who had come this time, was shockingly one of the four kings, Zhou Juechu!
"It's Senior Brother Zhou Juechu!"
"I never thought that I'd attract a senior brother of this level to watch the fight."
"Senior Brother Zhou is a newly advanced Sovereign Level student tycoon. He is rarely seen, yet he actually appeared at this time."
"The four people behind should be the four senior brother Zhou's followers."
"Only Senior Brother Zhou could actually go and follow someone else, a Martial Cultivator of the middle stage of the Four Great Sovereign Level. The other three kings also didn't receive such treatment."
Zhou Juechu's appearance caused many Heavenly Academy students to boil over.
In the eyes of ordinary students, the Elite Student was already a lofty existence. But for top students like Zhou Juechu, the gap between them and them was even wider.
The so-called Four Kings naturally could not be King Level. Rather, they were bestowed the same treatment as the King Level Expert s by being conferred as kings by the Great Desolate Empire during the period of time when they were still students.
And Zhou Juechu was the newly promoted Emperor student, as well as the most monstrous student. The appearance of this kind of existence, was even more eye-catching than a real King Level Expert.
Gu Xuan's eyes also looked over, sizing up Zhou Juechu.
The latter wore a black robe and a large hat that covered her entire face. A cold aura was emitted from her body.
"Peak Sovereign Level?" Gu Xuan's Soul Power, had also very easily detected that Zhou Juechu's realm had actually reached the level of Peak Sovereign Level, and could not help but smile in his heart, "He's actually a genius."
Two years ago, Zhou Juechu had only broken through the Sovereign Level and two years later, going from the One Star Sovereign Level to the Peak Sovereign Level could be said to be extremely fast.
In terms of talent, no one in the world could compare to Gu Xingyun. When he was adopted by Gu Xuan, his Spirit Level was only at the eighth star level, but four years later, it was the same as Gu Xuan's in his previous life, with the same Peak Emperor Level!
Compared to Gu Xingyun, this Zhou Juechu was far inferior.
Gu Xuan looked over, but felt the latter's gaze, which disappeared in a flash.
"Little friend Zhou, please sit next to me. I didn't think you would be willing to give this old man face. When the time comes, don't hesitate to give some pointers to these junior brothers of yours." The old man stopped and laughed at Zhou Juechu.
"Lin Lao must be joking, I am just a student too, how could I dare to belittle myself and give pointers." Zhou Juechu's voice was rather calm and without the slightest bit of emotion, yet seemingly carried an endless majesty.
Lin Lao shook his head and laughed. Although he was a King Level teacher, he was in reality only a King Class One Star teacher, whereas Zhou Juechu was famous for his ability to challenge opponents beyond his cultivation level.
Moreover, he was already more than a hundred years old and Zhou Juechu was not even twenty this year, so the two's futures could not be compared.
Zhou Juechu sat on a stone chair by the side of the plaza and the four young men dressed in white were standing behind Zhou Juechu in an orderly fashion.
Master, this time, amongst the newbies, the one called Gu Xuan is rumored to be as talented as Master, has Master checked on it yet? One of them said respectfully.
"I saw it." Zhou Juechu nodded his head, although he did not know Gu Xuan, the powerful Perceptual Ability had directly discovered the person with the greatest potential in the group.
"How is it?" That person's voice was filled with curiosity.
"It's nothing more than that." Zhou Juechu sneered.
The white-robed man nodded his head: "I also feel that these Elite Student s really like to exaggerate. Master's strength is something that they can understand, and when someone showed a little bit of talent, they thought that they could compare to Master. It's truly wishful thinking."
Back then, although Master did not reveal his strength within the Heavenly Court Large Competition, in reality, he already had the strength to fight for the number one position, and this Gu Xuan is only a mere number ten. The other person also sneered.
Zhou Juechu shook his head: "I originally thought that I found an opponent, but I didn't expect him to be a boring person, and came for nothing this time, I heard that this Gu Xuan has enmity with the second ranked Mountain And River List, Luo Yi, take a look, if he persists on against Luo Yi's three moves, I'll barely be able to take it."
"Heh heh." "Back then, when Master had the power, he was unwilling to reveal it, and only after he had patiently waited until his Sovereign Level broke through did he amaze everyone. This Gu Xuan, who was far from Master's strength, actually did not know how to endure, and did not know what was good for him.
In the first round of Heavenly Court Large Competition, Zhao Mayi was the first to choose his opponent. When everyone realized that the person Zhao Mayi chose was not Gu Xuan, but someone else, many people's expressions became mischievous as well.
Heavenly Court Large Competition simply could not admit defeat. Only when one side loses their fighting strength, or falls out of the fighting arena could victory be considered to be determined, as they could use this to temper the many Elite Student s.
The only thing that could protect Gu Xuan, which was the first in Heavenly Academy, was directly picking Gu Xuan, making it impossible for Luo Yi to choose.
But now, Zhao Mayi did not do so. It was clear that Zhao Mayi did not plan to protect Gu Xuan, or rather, gave up on him.
In that case, unless Gu Xuan reached his limit and jumped off the stage before Luo Yi could make a move, it would be hard to escape a humiliation.
The unlucky ghost that was chosen by Zhao Mayi mustered his courage to attack, and was immediately thrown off the stage, after the first round of the competition ended.
Zhao Mayi walked down the arena, and Luo Yi, who was already waiting at the side, sneered, jumped onto the stage, and looked at Gu Xuan in ridicule: "I originally thought that you would continue to be a cowardly tortoise, and had Zhao Mayi protect you. But now, I never expected that, perhaps Senior Brother Zhao felt that you were too useless, and didn't need to protect you anymore, right?"
Under gazes of pity, Gu Xuan walked onto the stage. Looking at the arrogant and complacent Luo Yi, Gu Xuan grinned: "Your mouth is ready?"
