When Lu Chengkong handed the dean's seal to Long Chen, the original branch disciples immediately looked gloomy.
After Long Chen took the seal, he said to everyone, "The branch academy headquarters is one family after all. Someone with ill intentions deliberately stirs up division. This is absolutely unacceptable for Lingxiao Academy."
As for why it's not allowed, I don't want to say too much, because even if I did, you wouldn't understand. After all, in this small world, you eat too much of the peaceful meal.
I just want to tell you, if you don't accept me being the dean, you can challenge me anytime. If anyone can defeat me, I, Long Chen, will hand over the dean's seal with both hands. As
soon as Long Chen said this, the strong figures of the branch academy all sighed quietly. They knew there was no hope for them in this lifetime.
Long Chen had killed two half-step Human Emperors in succession. They had witnessed it with their own eyes. Even the top prodigy on the Heavenly Ranking paled in comparison. Compared to Long Chen, they were vastly inferior.
"On a small scale, our Lingxiao Academy is already in crisis; on a larger scale, our entire human race faces the threat of extinction at any moment.
We don't have time to waste time. Anyone who blocks Lingxiao Academy's advance is our enemy, and when facing enemies, I won't show the slightest mercy.
Whether you understand or not, it's up to you. I don't have time to explain so much to you.
Also, I know many of you are dissatisfied and want to leave Lingxiao Academy, but I advise you to give up on that idea as soon as possible. Long Chen said.
"Why?"
A disciple protested and stepped forward.
"Zhao Weizhou, what are you doing?"
Ye Ziwen shouted loudly, because that person was the seventh top expert on the Heavenly Ranking and also his good brother. As soon as he stepped forward, Ye Ziwen panicked, fearing Long Chen might kill him in a fit of anger.
"Don't stop me. I'm not someone who cowards for life." Zhao Weizhou sneered.
"You ..." Ye Ziwen was so angry he almost coughed up blood.
Zhao Weizhou looked at Long Chen and said, "I just refuse to accept it. I just want to leave!" Long
Chen looked at Zhao Weizhou and said calmly, "I never said you couldn't leave. I just advised you to give up on that idea, because with the skills of you fools, you'll have your heads chopped off in less than half a day before you leave." As
soon as Long Chen said this, Zhao Weizhou immediately protested: "I'm the seventh top expert on the Heavenly Ranking—where in the world isn't my place to roam?" "
Travel?" If those ruthless people catch you, they can boil you to oil. Long Chen looked at him and curled his lips.
Hearing Long Chen's words, Bai Shishi and Yu Qingxuan couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Weizhou was furious: "You..."
Long Chen waved his hand and said, "I know you're not convinced. Here's what we'll do: in my Dragon Blood Legion, you can pick anyone you want. If you can defeat him, I'll take back what I said and apologize to you." After
Long Chen finished speaking, more than seven thousand Dragon Blood warriors all stepped forward at once. Their eyes gleamed, clearly having been holding back for too long these days.
Previously, the Dragonblood Legion had nearly clashed with academy disciples several times, but it was always Dean Bai Letian who intervened to stop them. Bai Letian knew that the Dragonblood Legion was full of ruthless people. Once they got into a fight, it would surely be a river of blood, which would be really hard to control.
So he kept leaving the problem for Long Chen to solve when he returned. It must be said, whether it was Bai Letian or the Hall Master, both were unparalleled in wisdom.
After Long Chen returned, he captured the bandits and the king, taking down two vice deans in a row, deciding the outcome in one move. As for those disciples, Bai Letian was reluctant to kill them, because these disciples were all spoiled children with strong plasticity.
Long Chen killing two old men didn't bother Bai Letian, but if this group of disciples were all killed by the Dragon Blood Legion, he couldn't accept it, so he tried to avoid direct confrontations between the Dragon Blood Legion and the branch disciples.
This only fueled the arrogance of the branch disciples, who made many provocative remarks. Meanwhile, the Dragonblood Legion was full of young and hot-headed people. If it weren't for the dean, these spit-loving guys would have died countless times already.
Now that Long Chen had sent Zhao Weizhou to challenge them, the Dragon Blood warriors were instantly energized. What amused Bai Shishi and the others most was that this group was actually pretending to be very timid. Some even deliberately hid behind others, feigning weakness to make them the target of him.
"You, I'm going to challenge you!" Zhao Weizhou pointed at Xia Chen behind Long Chen.
"Me?"
Xia Chen pointed at his own nose, looking utterly incredulous.
"That's right, it's you. Do you dare to come out and fight?" If not, just let me know. "Zhao Weizhou sneered.
Guo Ran and the others wore strange expressions. This guy was really stubborn. They were all standing behind Long Chen, both captain-level figures, and this guy had actually chosen Xia Chen among them.
"I wouldn't dare. I'm timid, so please let me go. Also, a reminder: if you choose people, you have to pick the ones within the team. Our batch is just a small-time player waving flags and shouting in the team. You can't pick the easy targets." Xia Chen said.
Xia Chen's words almost made everyone laugh again. Xia Chen, Guo Ran, Bai Xiaole, Gu Yang, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, and Yue Zifeng were all together, and they were called just minor characters waving flags and cheering loudly. Most importantly, Xia Chen spoke so seriously, and Zhao Weizhou actually believed him.
"Then you, come out. Don't look, it's you—the guy with a front row whose chest is about to reach up to his chin." Zhao Weizhou pointed at a Dragon Blood warrior.
The Dragonblood Warrior stood in the front row, deliberately sticking out his chest and belly to make himself stand out. He was really chosen, and at that moment, he was overjoyed and walked out just like that.
"Half-step Child of Destiny?"
When the Dragonblood Warrior stepped out, Zhao Weizhou noticed the aura of the Dragonblood Warrior and was instantly disappointed:
"Why are you, a half-step Child of Destiny, standing so prominently? Go back, you're no match for me. Let's find another Child of Destiny. "
Since you're already here, letting me leave like this would be embarrassing. You're so strong, just give me a few tips, okay?" The Dragonblood warrior said with a cheeky grin.
Zhao Weizhou looked at Long Chen and asked, "Is he too weak?" If I win, will what you said before still count? "
Of course it counts. If you can hold out for ten moves against him, then you've won." Long Chen looked at the Dragonblood Warrior and immediately smiled.
That person was a captain of the Dragon Blood Legion's guard, named Feng Wuyu, whose skills were quite solid.
"Such arrogance! Then let me see just how capable he really is." Zhao Weizhou's anger surged as he glared at Feng Wuyu before him and shouted coldly, "
Make your move, show your strongest move!"
"Sss!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, the void trembled, and a long sword was already pressed against his neck.
