Chapter 258: Hunting Competition!

"Tsk tsk tsk, it\'s too similar, this aura!" Ouyang Jing sighed. "No wonder I always felt that it was a little familiar!"

Soon, Ling Feng understood the situation and secretly speculated that it must have been the terrifying aura of his Slaughterous Sword Will that spread throughout the entire courtyard when it took shape last night. It affected Ouyang Jing and the others\' minds, causing them to have continuous nightmares.

In fact, when the Slaughterous Sword Will reached the level of perfection, once it unfolded, ordinary martial artists would immediately feel a chill in their bones, with no room for resistance at all.

This is what they called \'killing with just a glance.\'

"Big Brother, we all dreamed of you last night. It\'s probably not a coincidence, right?" Ouyang Jing narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Ling Feng. "What\'s different about you?"

Feng Mo also rested his chin on his hand, circling around Ling Feng. "Yeah, there\'s no reason why I, a big man, would dream of you instead of beautiful women!"

Ling Feng\'s expression darkened, and he kicked Feng Mo\'s butt. "Alright, alright, are you all too free or something? Hurry up and freshen up, and let\'s go to class!"

"Hehe..."

Everyone scratched their heads, knowing that today was another good day with the beautiful mentor Su Qingxuan teaching imperial history.

...

After everyone arrived at the classroom, the graceful figure of the beautiful mentor, Su Qingxuan, came strolling in. Seeing Ling Feng sitting obediently in his seat, a smile curled up at the corner of her mouth while she nodded slightly in approval.

For the past few classes, this Ling Feng seemed to have become much more obedient, never missing a class.

"Alright, since everyone is here, let\'s start the class. Today, I\'ll be explaining the other three nations within the four major empires of the Dongling Region.

"In the previous class, it was discussed that in the Dongling Region, there are four major empires: the Tianbai Empire, the Tiansheng Empire, the Tianyang Empire, and the Tianlong Empire. About 700 years ago, due to the split of the Holy Tianbai Dynasty, these four empires emerged.

"Today, we will mainly discuss the cultures of the Tiansheng Empire, and the customs and relations between the Tiansheng Empire and our Tianbai Empire..."

Su Qingxuan, as expected of the talented lady renowned at Tianwei Academy, gave an engaging lecture. Even Jiang Xiaofan, who usually got a headache from reading, thoroughly enjoyed listening to Su Qingxuan\'s storytelling.

Soon, Su Qingxuan\'s class came to an end, and before dismissing, she announced some news.

"Dear students, it has been a month since you joined Tianwei Academy. According to tradition, there will be a small test on your combat abilities for all students after one month of joining. Of course, participation in this test is voluntary. Those who wish to participate can sign up voluntarily. I believe Instructor Leng will also mention it, but in the end, you\'ll need to sign up with me."

Su Qingxuan stood behind the lectern, smiling at everyone.

"A test of combat abilities?"

The classroom erupted in a buzz of discussion.

"What kind of test is this? Is it like sparring with each other?"

"Really? I heard that duels between students of the five courts only happened during the assessment for mystical-tier students!"

"Hmph, you don\'t even know about that? Of course, it refers to the annual Hunting Competition of Tianwei Academy! My second brother participated a couple of years ago!"

Soon, amidst the clamor, someone spoke out the correct answer.

"Yes." Su Qingxuan\'s lips gently parted as she softly explained, "Indeed, it is the annual Hunting Competition. However, yellow-tier students like us are separate from students of other higher tiers."

Quickly, Su Qingxuan used her melodious voice to explain the details of the Hunting Competition.

The annual Hunting Competition was a tradition of Tianwei Academy, and similarly, it existed in the other three major academies as well.

The human race and the demon race had always been at odds. Like water and fire, they were incompatible.

The reason why academies held such Hunting Competitions was for two reasons: first, to encourage students to focus on practical combat skills, and second, to remind students not to forget the enmity between the human race and the demon race.

Tianwei Academy covered a vast area. Aside from the urban area, there was also a huge hunting ground on the outskirts of the imperial capital. It was a vast mountain range.

Because this mountain range had belonged to Tianwei Academy for hundreds of years, it was also known as the Tianwei Mountain Range.

Inside the Tianwei Mountains, there were thousands of demonic beasts ranging from the second tier, or the Qi Formation Realm, to the fifth tier, or the Spiritual Element Realm. Of course, fifth tier demonic beasts were rare in number and were basically the rulers within the Tianwei Mountains.

These rulers were only provoked by top-tier students with strong abilities, and yellow-tier students generally encountered at most a few third tier advanced demonic beasts in their activities.

Although these demonic beasts were captured and raised, they had not had their wildness removed. Like those terrifying demonic beasts in the wilderness, they were all fierce killers.

Once you signed up for this competition, life and death were up to fate. Even if you died, the academy was not responsible.

Every year, many students entered and died inside.

The path of martial arts was filled with bloodshed, sacrifice, and death. Only through baptism of blood and fire could one grow step by step into a martial arts expert.

Of course, if it were just simple hunting of demonic beasts, not many would have been willing to risk their lives to participate. After all, for students who could join Tianwei Academy, most of their families were quite well-off and didn\'t care much about the money from selling demonic cores and demonic beast parts.

To attract students to sign up enthusiastically, the academy also offered substantial rewards.

The top ten students from each tier received generous rewards, and to top it off, the overall top ten students were said to receive mysterious rewards.

There had been people who had obtained treasured artifacts, and others who had gained great opportunities for cultivation advancement. In short, it was definitely a reward that made people extremely tempted.

As Su Qingxuan finished her explanation, the students in the classroom were all excited and eager to give it a try.

This was an example of seeking wealth and nobility amidst danger. As a martial artist, if one didn\'t dare to take risks, what was the point of cultivating martial arts!?

"You can go back and think about it for a few days. At the latest, find me to sign up within three days," Su Qingxuan said. After announcing the end of class, she let the students disperse.

"This is a great opportunity!" Wang Yishan, the burly one, clenched his fist. "Hmph, there\'s no need to think about it at all! My iron fist is already itching!"

"Haha, of course. I\'m participating too!" Liu Yunfei laughed loudly. With his strength, there would hardly be any danger within the activities of yellow-tier students.

"Hey, Brother Bufan, what about you?"

Liu Yunfei saw Li Bufan, who had been sitting in the corner, and couldn\'t help but ask him.

Thinking about it, Liu Yunfei had admired Li Bufan ever since he saw his amazing swordsmanship several years ago. You could even find some of Li Bufan\'s style while he was practicing his own sword style. Being able to study alongside his idol was quite a surreal feeling.

Li Bufan still had a frosty expression, and he cast a cold glance at Liu Yunfei before getting up and leaving.

That guy always seemed out of place, like an iceberg that made it impossible for people to get close.

"What\'s so great about him? He\'s so cold!"

Qin Wanwan saw Liu Yunfei being ignored by Li Bufan and couldn\'t help but roll her eyes. While equally aloof, compared to him, Ling Feng was much more approachable.

Her eyes wandered, and Qin Wanwan couldn\'t help but look at Ling Feng while letting out a soft sigh.

These days, the question she had been grappling with was: Does Ling Feng really like Yue Yunlan?

It\'s so annoying, really annoying...
