Chapter 68: Is this the strength of a freshman? That's too heaven-defying!

"We will pause our lesson for now. Shui Yan, you and the others come with me."

Having said this, Xue Bingning led Luo Shuiyan and the others out of the classroom and headed toward the interior of the academy.

Before long, the group arrived in front of a grand hall, where quite a few students were already queuing up.

However, unlike Luo Shuiyan and her group, those in line were all senior students.

The arrival of the four freshmen, Luo Shuiyan and her companions, appeared undoubtedly out of place here.

"Little Xue, shouldn't you be in class right now? What leisure brings you here?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked over; he was a fourth-year Instructor and had already mentored four cohorts of students.

Seeing Luo Shuiyan leading four newcomers here, he was somewhat surprised for a moment.

"Instructor Chen, I am here to register my students for the Selection Tournament."

"What? Little Xue, you aren't mistaken, are you?"

"Although this is your first year leading a student class, you shouldn't be ignorant of even the most basic rules, should you?!"

Upon hearing these words from Xue Bingning, the middle-aged man was extremely astonished.

In the past history of Tianque Academy, there had never been a record of freshmen participating in the Hundred Schools League.

After all, three or four years of time is enough to create a gap in strength between Beast Tamers; this can already be considered common knowledge.

"Did you all hear that just now? These four little girls are here to participate in the Selection Tournament?!"

"Newcomers these days really are newborn calves that aren't afraid of tigers. I bet they don't even know how to fight with a Spirit Beast, do they?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I have to say, these few are truly stunning and beautiful. If I run into them during a fight, I really won't have the heart to crush the flowers."

"Hahahaha, these little freshman girls can only rely on their pretty faces!"

"I say, little junior sisters, in my opinion, just give it up this year; watch carefully and learn from your seniors."

"If you serve your seniors well, I guarantee you'll stand out in the Selection Tournament three years from now!"

Among the onlookers, some even started whistling.

Clearly, these senior students did not hold Luo Shuiyan and the others in any regard.

"Wanting my people to serve you? I think you are courting death!"

Hearing the words of the people around them, a cold glint flashed in Jiang Che's eyes; did his status as a Human Tamer mean nothing to them?

"Luo Shuiyan, I order you to retort immediately!"

The expressions of Luo Shuiyan and the other three were also very ugly at this moment.

After all, in this situation, it was likely that no one could endure it.

"Heh, you pieces of trash who only know how to boast with your tongues, I hope I don't run into you in the upcoming Selection Tournament."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for not even giving you the chance to beg for mercy!"

Luo Shuiyan's voice was incomparably cold, and that trace of the Empress's majesty was released invisibly, causing the surrounding crowd to freeze.

This Selection Tournament was different from the previous assessments.

The assessment was only based on the Beast Tamer's own strength to confront Magic Beasts of the same rank that had been pre-imprisoned and had already lost some of their wild nature.

However, the Selection Tournament was different; Beast Tamers had to bring their own Spirit Beasts and engage in a real battle against one another.

In the Selection Tournament, there were no restrictions on rank.

"Heh, I didn't expect the junior sister this year to be so young yet have such a big mouth."

Within the crowd, a fourth-year student stepped forward, his expression full of disdain.

Immediately following, a powerful aura was released from his body; he was clearly an Advanced Beast Master!

Yet, Luo Shuiyan merely gave a disdainful smile at this.

Then, she circulated her spiritual power, and an aura no less powerful than that of the fourth-year student was instantly emitted.

Hiss~ The onlookers were all shocked and couldn't help but gasp.

No one had expected that Luo Shuiyan, who had only just joined Tianque Academy, had actually already broken through to become an Advanced Beast Master!

Many of the senior students who had been mocking her earlier could not help but lower their heads at this moment.

Because among these senior students, some had cultivation levels not even as high as this newcomer, Luo Shuiyan.

"Little Xue, you've really struck gold this time!"

"This girl is only a freshman, yet she already possesses the strength of an Advanced Beast Master; her future prospects are limitless!" This Instructor's tone carried a hint of envy, and even some jealousy! If this were his student, he would likely wake up laughing in his dreams.

Having only just joined Tianque Academy, she was already an Advanced Beast Master.

In the future, she might have the chance to become an Emperor-level Beast Tamer who surpasses the King Rank! "Heh, so what if she luckily broke through to become an Advanced Beast Master?"

"For the Selection Tournament, an Advanced Beast Master is merely the threshold!"

"If she came to participate three years from now, perhaps she would have a chance, but right now, it's just making a fool of herself."

A mocking laugh rang out from the crowd.

Immediately after, a man dressed in gorgeous attire was seen walking over slowly.

Seeing this, the surrounding senior students took the initiative to clear a path for him.

This person had a slicked-back appearance and a cynical look.

Luo Shuiyan was all too familiar with this type of person; at a glance, he was a spoiled brat from a prominent family.

In Luo Shuiyan's memories, this person did indeed exist.

This person was also from the Xi'an Wang Family, named Wang Tianxin.

In her past-life memories, in this year's competition, whether it was the Individual Tournament or the Team Competition, this Wang Tianxin never made the rankings.

His strength was actually quite mediocre; he was merely throwing his weight around by relying on the Wang Family behind him.

Glancing at Wang Tianxin with disdain, Luo Shuiyan gave a cold laugh.

"Strength is won with fists, not spoken with the mouth."

Having said that, Luo Shuiyan ignored the strange gazes of the people around her and followed Xue Bingning to begin the registration.

In the Individual Tournament, only Luo Shuiyan signed up.

After all, the Individual Tournament only selects the top three, and the requirements for a Beast Tamer's strength are extremely high.

Even for the final Hundred Schools League, the entire Great Jin Dynasty only has three hundred people.

Afterwards, the group also signed up for the Team Tournament, and as the team leader, Luo Shuiyan was required to test her true strength.

After all, if one does not have sufficient strength, it is a waste of the academy's time and resources.

"Shui Yan, give me your Spirit Beast, and you go stand inside the instrument to test your level."

Because Xue Bingning was closest to Luo Shuiyan at that moment, she subconsciously reached out and took Jiang Che.

Luo Shuiyan also knew Xiaobai's preferences; as long as it wasn't a male, it could basically accept it.

Being handed over by Luo Shuiyan and finding himself in a new environment, Jiang Che was completely stunned.

He even saw the milky white color inside the high-bulging shirt buttons.

That deep cleavage, Jiang Che felt he could bury himself in it.

One has to say, a mature woman is truly full of charm.

This scale was quite a bit larger than both Luo Shuiyan's and Yi Zimeng's!

Although it was also very comfortable at Luo Shuiyan's, he had stayed there for a long time after all, and now that he had changed positions, there were always some new sensations.

"Luo Shuiyan, eighteen years old, Seven-star High-level Beast Tamer!"

"Seven-star?"

"Isn't she only a freshman?! I didn't expect her to have actually cultivated to such a high stage?!"

The people around were shocked, simply unable to believe their eyes.

Originally, they had thought that Luo Shuiyan had only just luckily broken through to become an Advanced Beast Master.

They didn't expect that she had already cultivated to the later stage!

As an Instructor, Xue Bingning's breathing also became rapid at this moment; Luo Shuiyan's strength pleasantly surprised her.

Her chest heaved along with it, and Jiang Che, who was being held by her, widened his eyes at this moment.

"No... wait a second..."

"This pressure against my back is a bit hard to handle!"
