Still, thinking about it, it was normal; although other academies in Sky Shu Prefecture didn't have as deep a foundation as Southwind Academy, they were equally capable of cultivating a pillar of strength. If they happened to get lucky one day, they might suddenly snatch first place in the grand examination, and the academy's reputation would skyrocket, earning back every bit of investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading through it all, Li Luo discovered that these top ten contenders were almost all at the Eighth Seal level or above; clearly, none of them were weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems the difficulty of entering the top ten is not small.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo rubbed his chin. He was currently at the Seventh Seal level, which was clearly a bit weaker than these top ten contenders. However, due to the uniqueness of his Water-Light Resonance, if they were to actually fight, the opponent might not necessarily have much of an advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were to encounter Song Yunfeng now, he would no longer need to end things in a draw like in their previous match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And clearly, among the top ten, Lu Qinger and Shi Kong were in a league of their own. These two were at the Ninth Seal level and were quite proficient in the resonance arts they had mastered, so they were indeed the most likely to take first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Li Luo had no great interest in taking first place for the time being. Why? Because his strength didn't really allow for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he possessed a sixth-grade \"Water-Light Resonance,\" Lu Qinger and Shi Kong both had upper seventh-grade resonances. Both had impressive backgrounds and the resources they received would be no less than his as a Young Master of a manor. Therefore, if he truly thought he could easily defeat them by crossing levels, he would be underestimating them too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he wasn't Jiang Qing'e, who could suppress everything with a ninth-grade Light Resonance, leaving others without even the courage to fight her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, when Pei Hao came to cause trouble, he was clearly in the late stage of the Earth Fiend General realm, yet facing Jiang Qing'e, who was only in the early stage, he couldn't gain any advantage at all. This showed the ferocity and dominance of a ninth-grade Light Resonance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Li Luo's current goal was just to mix into the top ten in the grand examination and secure an admission spot; that was enough. As for the first-place position, he really had no great interest in it. After all, it was too dazzling and easily attracted covetous eyes. After experiencing those past events, Li Luo felt that one should develop in a low-profile manner and stay steady without being reckless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If conditions allowed, Li Luo would rather complete a small goal in a low-profile way first: stepping into the Marquis realm to stabilize his own life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, that remaining five-year lifespan was truly a sharp blade hanging over his head, making it hard for anyone to sleep or eat in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Li Luo was immersed in this grand examination data compiled by Yu Lang, the sky gradually darkened. Zhao Kuo intended to go out to forage for food, but seeing how serious Li Luo looked, he didn't speak to disturb him, instead slipping out himself, planning to pack some food back for Li Luo later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This data is compiled quite comprehensively; there's a lot of solid information.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having finished reading the document, Li Luo couldn't help but praise it again. At the very least, after reading it, he had a preliminary understanding of the top students from each academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, after reading it, he felt that the playboy Yu Lang might have intentionally left out some of his own data to avoid him being targeted. Otherwise, with the information Yu Lang possessed, he wouldn't have written the intelligence about him so vaguely and dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wronged that playboy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo muttered to himself, then heard his stomach rumble, only then realizing that the sky had turned completely dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why isn't Zhao Kuo back yet? Does he want to starve me to death and take this dormitory for himself?\" Li Luo asked in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was wondering, the door was suddenly knocked, and Yu Lang's voice came from outside: \"Li Luo, your friend Zhao Kuo has been intercepted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo opened the door and frowned, saying: \"What did you say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lang outside the door shrugged and said: \"That guy seems to have had a conflict with people from Central Yang Academy. The leader of the other side is Zong Fu; you should know him if you've read my grand examination data.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"People from Central Yang Academy? What do they want?\" Li Luo asked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even Zong Fu has shown up. If you say it's just to target a Zhao Kuo, I don't think you'd believe it,\" Yu Lang analyzed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Coming for me?\" Li Luo said thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's highly likely they want to test your bottom line,\" Yu Lang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've been so low-profile, and they still want to test me?\" Li Luo expressed his speechlessness. Zong Fu was, after all, a strong contender for the top ten; how could he have set his sights on him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems like a cautious character, fitting his personality,\" Yu Lang agreed. Li Luo was indeed very low-profile; his only eye-catching record was relying on a mechanism to force a draw with Song Yunfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bullying my brother—no matter who he is, I can't tolerate it!\" Li Luo said indignantly, then walked straight out of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lang scratched his head. If you do that, wouldn't you just be playing right into their hands?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the west side of White Spirit Garden, amidst the surging crowd, many people stopped, forming a blockage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the crowd, several students from Central Yang Academy surrounded Zhao Kuo, erupting into an argument, while many people around were watching the show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's the situation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard that guy from Southwind Academy harassed a junior schoolmate from Central Yang Academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So arrogant? Where is the junior schoolmate?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There, uh, her appearance is so... ordinary. Are people from Southwind Academy really that desperate?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the many chuckles, Zhao Kuo became increasingly impatient, anger surging in his eyes. Suddenly, he shoved aside the few people blocking him and turned to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as he started running, he suddenly felt a powerful force surging from behind. A somewhat cold palm pressed onto his back, and the power pulsing from the palm made Zhao Kuo's whole body stiffen, not daring to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head to look at the refined and thin-looking youth who had appeared behind him and said angrily: \"What do you want to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zong Fu smiled upon hearing this: \"Brother, the matter isn't over yet. For today's incident, you must let someone from Southwind Academy who can speak for the group come out to resolve it, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you trying to frame me?\" Zhao Kuo said in a deep voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zong Fu laughed: \"If Southwind Academy doesn't send someone with enough face, I'm afraid we'll have to beat you up to seek justice for our junior schoolmate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bullshit, she's built sturdier than I am; would I harass her?\" Zhao Kuo said angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zong Fu ignored him, simply holding him firmly in place, letting the crowd of onlookers grow larger and larger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two sides bickered and cursed for a while when suddenly the crowd stirred. Then, Zong Fu's eyes lit up as he saw Li Luo walk out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He really came.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zong Fu was secretly delighted. As long as Li Luo appeared, he would find a way to test his bottom line today and see if he had real ability or was just a silver-tipped spearhead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before his joy could spread, he saw Li Luo turn his head and shout to the back: \"Supervisory Instructor, here! This guy is violating the rules by fighting privately. Hurry up and arrest him and strip him of his qualification to participate in the grand examination.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smile on Zong Fu's face froze instantly, and then he saw an instructor wearing a supervisory uniform standing expressionlessly behind Li Luo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The refined Zong Fu cursed out loud. He hadn't expected this Young Master of the Luo Lan Manor to play so dirty. Fights between students from various academies in White Spirit Garden had been common these past two days, but everyone followed the unwritten rule of resolving things themselves. Who had ever seen someone who reported to the teachers at the slightest provocation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he not want any face?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Young Master didn't play by the rules at all.\u003C\u002Fp>",1797,"2026-06-20T03:27:18.369Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","08668ea4e12289009e79a1bd06c872e89fb6b2997b5ae93f96e6bd91dddec1f2","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-47","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-45",999,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fking-of-all-manifestations-cover.jpg"]
