Chapter 1037: Teaching You How To Behave

Standing on the teleportation array was a lady dressed in a flowing white robe with cloud patterns. Her hands were clasped behind her back, and she exuded an aura of authority.

Ye Guan recognized her.

She was An Qinghan, the woman he had encountered when he visited the An family a long time ago. He hadn't expected to see her here, even though it was just a projection of her rather than her true body.

"That's An Qinghan from the An family!" someone exclaimed.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The crowd erupted into a commotion.

An Qinghan's reputation in the Main Guanxuan Academy was significant. She was one of the representative figures of the younger generation and was on the verge of becoming a Martial Goddess.

Seeing An Qinghan, many young talents were excited, and their eyes were filled with bare admiration.

Even the likes of Ye Yun, Nalan Gu, and other noble family disciples couldn't help but be thrilled. They hailed from the Ye Clan and the Nalan Clan, but they paled in comparison to An Qinghan, who was the top student of the Martial Department!

The top student!

She was a genius that they could only hope to reach. Even the top talents of the Ye Clan and the Nalan Clan could only dream of catching up to her.

Standing beside Ye Guan, Fang Yu was visibly excited as well. An Qinghan was the top student of the Martial Academy, and she was a legendary figure in Fang Yu's eyes!

A voice echoed from the crowd. "Salute!"

Everyone assumed a solemn expression and respectfully saluted An Qinghan before shouting, "Greetings to Representative An!"

Of course, Ye Guan didn't join the salute...

An Qinghan nodded. "Begin."

As soon as her voice fell, an invisible pressure suddenly swept across the skies, and everyone's faces changed dramatically. In just a few moments, dozens of people were forced to the ground.

One by one, people began falling to the ground, and they were promptly transported out.

Ye Guan was surprised. He noticed that An Qinghan's martial aura was close to developing into her own unique Dao.

Not bad! Ye Guan smiled. She had grown unexpectedly fast—faster than he had expected. The martial aura became even more, and more people fell to the ground.

Ye Guan looked around and noticed that the remaining geniuses were already struggling, including Fang Yu next to him.

Despite that, only a third of the incense had been reduced to ashes.

There was still time!

The martial aura surged once again, becoming even stronger at a faster rate. Many people collapsed and were subsequently transported away.

Fang Yu clenched his fists tightly and beaded sweat appeared all over his face. He was clearly struggling. It wasn't just Fang Yu. Even the stronger figures like Ye Yun and Nalan Gu were starting to show signs of strain.

Of course, Ye Guan had to put on an act, as there were many people watching.

Gradually, fewer than two hundred people remained standing, and the incense was almost burned out. Just as it was about to be extinguished, the martial aura unleashed a wave of pressure.

Boom!

A hundred people collapsed without warning!

They were eliminated at once!

The unfortunate one hundred or so people were immediately transported away.

The martial aura in the air disappeared without a trace.

An Qinghan was about to leave when she noticed Ye Guan in the distance and frowned.

"I'd like to give it a try."

Nalan Gu laughed. "Ignorant."

Ye Guan said nothing.

"Since you don't want to leave with your dignity intact, then I'll help you take it away." Nalan Gu glanced to the side and said, "We can begin now."

"Begin." A voice echoed, and Nalan Gu disappeared to reappear in front of Ye Guan with his fist raised. His punch carried so much force that it generated a loud boom.

However, Ye Guan merely sidestepped, dodging the punch with ease.

Nalan Gu was stunned. He quickly spun around for another strike, but once again, he missed, and by that time, Ye Guan was already standing where Nalan Gu had started just a few seconds ago.

Nalan Gu was a bit taken aback.

"Hahaha." Nalan Gu laughed. "So, you've been hiding your strength. Interesting."

He opened his palm, and a long spear appeared in his hand. The next moment, he leaped into the air, thrusting the spear toward Ye Guan with deadly precision. This spear thrust was accompanied by a sharp spear intent, tearing through the air.

However, Ye Guan dodged it with ease. When Nalan Gu landed, Ye Guan had already moved to a different spot. Nalan Gu's expression turned serious. He realized something was wrong.

He glared fiercely at Ye Guar, and a powerful spear energy erupted from him. He took a forceful step forward and thrust his spear directly at Ye Guan once more.

The spear gleamed with a blazing light and was radiating an immense power.

It was a martial skill!

As a disciple of the Nalan Clan, Nalan Gu naturally had access to many powerful martial skills, and he held nothing back against Ye Guan.

The spear was incredibly fast, and it reached Ye Guan in the blink of an eye.

Swoosh!

However, the spear thrust missed. Ye Guan was already several meters away.

Nalan Gu's expression became even more solemn.

Just as he was about to attack again, Commander Shi suddenly appeared.

Nalan Gu stopped and looked at Commander Shi, confused, "Commander Shi?"

Commander Shi ignored Nalan Gu and stared at Ye Guan. "What's your name?"

"Yang Guan."

The Yang Clan? Commander Shi frowned. He pondered for a while but couldn't recall any prominent clans with the surname "Yang."

Commander Shi pushed the thought aside and asked, "What's your father's name?"

"Commander Shi, we're in the middle of a competition right now. Isn't it inappropriate to interrupt like this?"

"If you willingly withdraw, Young Master Gu will give you ten Dao Origin Crystals and owe you a favor. What do you think?"

Upon hearing that, Nalan Gu's face darkened, but he remained silent. Since Commander Shi had made such an offer, it meant Nalan Gu couldn't defeat the young man in front of him.

Ye Guan shook his head. "Commander Shi, this isn't in line with the rules."

Commander Shi stared intently at Ye Guan. "Rules are rigid, but people are flexible. Young man, sometimes taking a step back opens up vast horizons, while advancing could lead you into an abyss. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ye Guan looked at Commander Shi and smiled. "Are you threatening me?"

Commander Shi shook his head and replied, "That depends on your interpretation. You can take it as a threat, or you can take it as me teaching you how to behave."

A murderous glint flickered in Commander Shi's eyes.
