"Hmph." Seeing the smile on Han Xiao's face, Zhong Yaoming harrumphed with hatred in his heart. He led the few people beside him away, giving Han Xiao a fierce glare as he left.

"What the heck? Aren't you the loser of the seventh prince?" Seeing Zhong Yaoming's attitude, Lil 'Lei said unhappily.

"Little Lei Zi, there's no need to spend too much energy on unworthy people. By the way, will you participate in this student competition?" Han Xiao turned his head and asked.

"I will participate, but this time, I think I will only be able to join the intermediate academy. As for the advanced academy students, they will need a few more years." Xi Yun smiled lightly as he finished speaking and continued to talk to Han Xiao, "However, your cultivation seems to have improved a bit. It seems like you have the opportunity to rush to a higher level student."

"I'm pretty clear on my own stats. At most, I'm only a middle-level student. Oh right, Zhao Xiang, how are you doing?" Han Xiao asked.

"I'm confident that I can become a junior student. I'll definitely bring honor to my parents." Zhao Xiang clenched his fist and said seriously.

Seeing Zhao Xiang like this, Han Xiao smiled. Seeing that there was nothing to do, the few of them left the Diao Wu Hall and returned to the academy, while Xi Yun and Zhao Xiang tacitly did not ask Han Xiao where he had been for the past half month.

After returning to his room, Han Xiao immediately laid down on his bed and fell into a deep sleep. Although these five days had not expended his energy, his mental force had been nearly exhausted. Even as he walked, he could feel the golden stars flashing before his eyes.

After a silent night, Han Xiao was woken up by the rapid knocking on the door the next morning. He struggled to get up from his bed and walked to the door. When he opened it, he saw Zhao Xiang's anxious expression.

"Han Xiao, the drawing ceremony is about to begin, and you're still sleeping here." Seeing Han Xiao's sleepy and hazy appearance, Zhao Xiang gloomily said.

When he heard Zhao Xiang's words, he recalled that the remaining sleepiness from today's student competition had been driven away. He immediately ran back to his room, picked up a piece of clothing, and put it on, then pulled Zhao Xiang who was at the door and said, "Then let's go quickly. I don't want to be the focus of attention again."

Zhao Xiang also increased his speed and followed Han Xiao towards the Dian Wu Hall, fortunately, the two of them had just arrived at the Dian Wu Hall and were separated into groups. Although there were more than seventy students who did not qualify for the student competition due to their results, including the older students from before, there were also more than four hundred people remaining. The originally small Diao Wu Hall was now even more crowded, and basically everyone's bodies were next to each other, making it very difficult to even take a single step.

"Right now, the people I am studying can directly enter the arena battle without participating in the group competition. They are Han Xiao, Wang Lin, and Bai Xinke. Zhao Xiang, Lei Zhui, the forty people I've read about, come forward. " After Liang Hua finished reciting, Han Xiao and the rest walked out of the crowd. Although there were forty people out, the remaining three hundred or so people still looked very impressive.

Seeing that Han Xiao and the rest had finished their battle, Liang Hua continued, "The remaining people will be divided into ten groups and will fight in a free-for-all battle." Seeing that Han Xiao and the rest had finished their battle, Liang Hua continued, "The remaining people will be divided into ten groups and fight in a free-for-all battle. Liang Hua coldly said. At first, there were many people who had the thought of getting lucky, but after hearing his words, their faces immediately changed.

After about an hour, the ten groups had been divided. There were at least thirty-six people in each group, and there were forty people in each group. This meant that only six people would be able to stay.

"All of you follow me to the martial arts practice field. As for those who don't need to participate in the group competition, you can go back and rest." After speaking indifferently, Liang Hua led the three hundred over people towards the Martial Arts Practice Grounds.

Those who could directly advance were either following Liang Hua towards the Martial Arts Practice Grounds or heading back.

Seeing that only Han Xiao and himself were left in the Martial Hall after a while, Zhao Xiang said with hesitation, "Han Xiao, I."

"If you want to watch the group competition, then let's go and have a look. Anyway, if you have nothing to do when you go back, you might as well go and see someone else. Who knows, maybe one of them will be our match when they return." Han Xiao interrupted Zhao Xiang as he spoke.

"Then let's hurry up and go." After saying this, Zhao Xiang quickly walked towards the direction of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds.

When Han Xiao and Zhao Xiang arrived at the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, they saw that a large arena, large enough to accommodate fifty people, had been set up in the middle of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds.

"* Dang * * Dang" The sounds of weapons clashing against flesh could be heard from the stage. Although Han Xiao and Zhao Xiang had arrived not too late, three people had already been kicked off the stage. This was the difference in strength.

Han Xiao let out a sigh of relief. Although he had slept all day, he still felt that he had not slept enough. Furthermore, his spiritual force was still very weak. It would probably be difficult to recover before the student competition.

When he thought of this, Han Xiao's heart was filled with resentment towards Leng Qinghe, but that was only thinking about it.

"Calculating the time, I should be six months pregnant, and elder cousin Jianfeng should be ready by now." Han Xiao silently thought in his heart.

"Lady Qingrong, this is today's birth control medicine." A palace maid dressed in emerald green was holding a bowl of black fetal medicine in her hands. A rich medicinal fragrance wafted out from the medicine. However, after smelling it, she immediately vomited.

"Didn't I say it already? How come the smell is still the same as yesterday?" Qing Rong frowned and asked.

"Change the medicine, what do you think your identity is? The prince's consort or concubine is nothing more than a plaything following the fifth prince, you don't even know who has this piece of meat in your stomach. If you were able to give birth to a baby, then you would have been expelled from the prince's hall." Qing Yu said while straightening his back, his eyes full of undisguised contempt.

"You're simply too presumptuous! Even if I'm not the imperial concubine or the imperial concubine, I'm still a member of the Fifth Prince, and you're just a palace maid who dares speak to me in such a manner. I'll make sure to do it when I get back!" Before Qinggrong could finish her sentence, her chin was held tightly by the palace maid.

"What must I do? If it wasn't for the fact that this piece of meat in your stomach is of royal lineage, the Fifth Prince would have long since swallowed it and tossed you out of the palace. Let's see if you still dare to act arrogantly at that time. " Qing Yu coldly said.

When Qing Yu thought about Han Yu's attitude towards her during this period of time, the tears that flowed uncontrollably down her face. She looked as if she was angry at her daughter-in-law, but a trace of coldness was hidden in her eyes.

Qing Yu thought Qing Shui understood what was going on and snorted before turning to leave. However, just as he took two steps, he suddenly felt a chill behind his back, and an intense pain came from his abdomen. He lowered his head and saw a silver sword pierce through his body.

He slowly drew his sword and watched as Qing Yu slowly fell to the ground in front of him. The sweet smell of blood made her feel nauseous, but she quickly suppressed it.

"Commander Xiao, come out." She lightly said to the air.

"Qinggrong, you're too reckless." Xiao Jianfeng felt that there was no one around and slowly jumped down from the roof. He looked at Qing Lian with a gaze full of reproach.

"Commander Xiao, Qinggrong doesn't want the Fifth Prince to be with her, right? The Seventh Prince is the closest?" Qinggrong asked with expectation in her eyes.

"The Seventh Prince has been in closed-door training recently, so there hasn't been any news. However, before he closed door cultivation, he instructed me to take good care of you." Xiao Jianfeng said.

"Seventh Prince is still thinking of being lenient." She had a blissful smile on her face as she spoke, but when she saw her bulging stomach, her eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

"Don't think too much. The Seventh Prince said that he will marry you as his imperial concubine when he returns. He will take care of your child like his own child." Xiao Jianfeng said.

"But I wasn't able to complete the mission that was assigned to me by the Seventh Prince, and I wasn't able to cause the Fifth Prince and Third Prince to fall out." Qing Rong sighed and said.

"It doesn't matter. After all, a crack has already appeared. The alliance between the Fifth Prince and the Third Prince won't last for long. I'll deal with her first. You just need to rest assured and focus on nurturing the baby." With that, Xiao Jianfeng bent over and stored Qingyu's corpse into his storage ring. At the same time, he cleaned up the bloodstains on the ground before quietly leaving.

At the same time, "Barbarian Cow Crash." Dark yellow energy wrapped around his body and he rushed out like a raging bull. "Deng deng deng," he felt the vibrations coming from the arena, the person closest to the sturdy man wanted to dodge but his vision went black, his entire body was sent flying out of the arena by the sturdy man.

"That strong man does have some physical strength. It's not impossible for him to reach the Soul Transformation stage with a suitable cultivation technique." Han Xiao looked at the sturdy man as a plan flashed across his mind. He was already thinking about how much benefit he would get if he could recruit that man.

"He's called Da Niu. He's very loyal." Zhao Xiang said.

"Daniu, this name suits him quite well." As Han Xiao finished speaking, he saw another person being knocked off the stage by Da Niu, and there were only five people left on the stage.

After hearing Liang Hua announce the results and seeing Da Niu and the other four come down from the arena, Han Xiao patted Zhao Xiang's shoulders and said, "Let's go and get to know this Da Niu who is the same as Niu." After saying that, he ignored Zhao Xiang's puzzled gaze and walked towards Da Niu.
