Chapter 150

"In other words, Li Yao is weaker than that kid Lin Zhouting?"

Xue Jiulan's expression was grave.

If it was to this degree, wanting to become a main force in the border trial was still a long way off.

Xue Jiulan's thoughts gradually drifted away.

The border trial, a global grand ceremony initiated by the Heavenly Dao of this world.

Once every four years.

Countries on Blue Star send ten practitioners under the age of 20 to participate together.

Dividing border regions, allocating border resources, and awarding endless rewards.

For such an important grand event, every country would send its top lineup, to the point that even SS-grade practitioners had become a mere threshold.

The principal's intention

Was for her to pull Li Yao into Jingyu Martial Academy and, three months later, become a main member of the border trial.

Clearing the tenth floor of the Tower of Heaven counted as a top-tier genius of the Dragon Nation.

In previous years, such strength would definitely have been enough.

But...

Among all practitioners under 20 in the Dragon Nation, whether they advanced early or participated in the advancement ceremony, there wasn't a single one who had reached the tenth floor!

Becoming a main force meant having to lead these people to participate in a grand event full of top geniuses.

The pressure was immense.

Xue Jiulan felt a headache.

Li Yao had only advanced a few days ago; for the principal to let such a little guy become a main force, had the old man gone crazy!

You have to know,

In the last border trial, the Dragon Nation sent two tenth-floor geniuses, and they only barely managed to get third place.

And this Tower of Heaven,

It was eight years ago that she led a team and fought desperately with two other practitioners of the same level to snatch it back.

Third place didn't have this kind of reward.

Xue Jiulan's face became increasingly heavy.

She could already imagine Li Yao's sense of powerlessness when facing those geniuses.

It wasn't that Li Yao was weak; it was just that his luck was bad.

Sigh, why didn't the old principal discover Li Yao sooner?

If he had advanced early, perhaps there would have been a chance!

Just then,

The light point on the tenth floor of the Tower of Heaven went out.

A figure appeared at the array location.

"He's out."

Although Xue Jiulan had expected Li Yao to pass, she felt a sense of relief at this moment.

"The first tenth floor this year, at least it wasn't a total bust!"

Xue Jiulan realized she had thought too far.

Successfully subjugating the tenth floor, whether in the Dragon Nation or the whole world, was a top-tier genius!

Placing the pressure of the border trial on the other party was unfair to begin with.

Xue Jiulan stepped out lightly with her right foot, and in an instant, she appeared in front of Li Yao.

Li Yao, who had just come out, was stunned.

It wasn't because of the visitor's speed, but because of the other party's gaze.

It had landed squarely on the invisible Void Mantis!

"Is this the summoned beast that broke ten thousand damage without a second advancement?"

Xue Jiulan looked at the Void Mantis curiously.

"Not bad."

"I mean the stealth method."

Xue Jiulan saw at a glance that this summoned beast just had exaggerated strength; other attributes might be stronger than ordinary summoned beasts, but that was about it.

Li Yao looked at the other party without explaining.

There was no one around now; the other party had every opportunity to kill the Void Mantis.

So, they should be on the same side.

Xue Jiulan nodded in satisfaction at Li Yao's cautious appearance.

She immediately took out a five-star medal.

"Five stars!"

Li Yao's body froze.

"General of the Nation?"

"Since you recognize it, that makes things easier." Xue Jiulan took back the medal and said with a smile, "No need for formalities; I came over just to tell you two things."

Without waiting for Li Yao to reply, Xue Jiulan spoke on her own:

"First, it's about the Yan family; your grudge with the Yan family is now under my jurisdiction."

Xue Jiulan's tone was casual, as if she didn't put the Yan family in her eyes at all.

Li Yao was a bit surprised, but it was obviously not the time to interrupt the other party.

Xue Jiulan continued: "So you don't have to worry about what the Yan family will do to the Silver Wolf Guild, nor do you have to worry about the Yan family sending fourth-advancement practitioners to trouble you; just rest assured and level up."

"However, you killed that practitioner named Yan something-or-other in public this time; that was still a bit too much."

Li Yao's heart skipped a beat.

The other party struck first; the punishment shouldn't be too heavy, right?

Xue Jiulan reached out and tapped her chin, as if thinking about what punishment to give.

"Let's just give a verbal warning!"

"You kid, pay attention in the future!"
