Chapter 231: Fang Zhan: If you want to find abuse, I won't stop you

At the gate of Canglan Academy.

The Vice Dean and two instructors of Canglan Academy, as well as several disciples, were waiting at the gate.

A dozen breaths later, a team appeared at the gate of the Academy.

The people from Lord Lingxiao Academy had arrived.

"Hao Shixiong, long time no see. Your style is even better than before." Jiang Mingda, the Vice Dean of Canglan Academy, opened with a smile.

"I'm old, can't compare to Jiang Shidi."

Hao Jifeng, the Vice Dean of Lord Lingxiao Academy, got off his horse. After speaking, his gaze fell on the few disciples behind Jiang Mingda.

Similarly, Jiang Mingda was also sizing up the six disciples of Lord Lingxiao Academy behind Hao Jifeng.

Academy exchange is actually a contest and spar between the disciples of both sides.

In the past, among the four major academies, the three families of Qingyun Academy, Kyoto Academy, and Lord Lingxiao Academy rarely took the initiative to conduct Martial Way exchanges with Canglan Academy. In their words, Canglan Academy was too far away and not very convenient.

Of course, the three academies expressed welcome for Canglan Academy disciples to go to Lord Lingxiao Academy for Martial Way exchanges.

But the real inner reason, the four academies knew well. Those three academies felt that the disciples of Canglan Academy were weaker in strength and not worth them traveling thousands of miles.

In most cases, it was the Vice Dean of Canglan Academy who led the team to other academies for exchanges, but the results of each exchange were not ideal. As time went on, the matter of academy exchange was rarely mentioned among the disciples.

This was the first time in the last seven years that other academies had taken the initiative to come to Canglan Academy for exchange.

After the two exchanged simple pleasantries, they walked into the Academy.

Vice Dean to Vice Dean, instructor to instructor, and the disciples naturally to themselves.

"Zhang Shidi, why don't you introduce the new disciples of your Canglan Academy?"

A disciple from the previous batch of Lord Lingxiao Academy asked the disciples of the previous batch of Canglan Academy. In the previous batch, Canglan Academy led the team to Lord Lingxiao Academy for Martial Way exchange, and the disciples of the two families had met.

Zhang Shan nodded and smiled: "This is Luo Han, Luo Shidi, the first one in our Canglan Academy to refine two organs. I think you have all heard of him. These two are Luo Jun and Lu Tao."

"Luo Han has met all the senior and junior brothers."

Being mentioned by the senior brother, Luo Han had a humble smile on his face, but there was pride in his heart.

However, the many disciples of Lord Lingxiao Academy didn't have much change in expression when they heard Zhang Shan and Luo Han's words, and no one even spoke, as if they were still waiting for something.

"The others are all junior brothers from the previous batch. Everyone has met, so I don't need to introduce them."

Hearing Zhang Shan's words, a youth from Lord Lingxiao Academy couldn't help but speak: "Zhang Shixiong, what about Lin Chen of your Academy?"

"Lin Shidi?" Zhang Shan didn't expect the disciples of Lord Lingxiao Academy to ask about Lin Chen, and explained: "Very unfortunately, Lin Shidi is in closed-door cultivation."

"Closed-door cultivation? Then wasn't our trip here in vain?"

Another youth also followed up, with a look of deep disappointment on his face.

"If I had known Lin Chen was in closed-door cultivation, it would have been better to go to Qingyun Academy."

"Lin Chen is in closed-door cultivation, what about Fang Zhan?" A female disciple asked.

"Fang... Fang Shidi is also in closed-door cultivation."

The words of the three new disciples of Lord Lingxiao Academy, which did not hide anything, made the smile on Luo Han's face stiffen.

He was the first in Canglan Academy to complete the refining of two organs, but these new disciples of Lord Lingxiao Academy only had Lin Chen in their eyes, and even mentioned Fang Zhan, but not him. This kind of ignoring him was a great humiliation.

Hao Jifeng and Jiang Mingda, who were walking at the front, naturally heard the discussions behind them. Hao Jifeng asked with a smile: "Jiang Shidi? Is your Academy's Lin Chen in closed-door cultivation?"

"Lin Chen has been busy with cultivation recently."

Jiang Mingda answered. He knew about Lin Chen's situation. The Dean had given Lin Chen an abnormal training arrangement, without a day of rest. At this time, Lin Chen should be in the Hall of Hard Training being pricked by needles.

"If it's not completely closed-door cultivation, let these little guys from Lord Lingxiao Academy see it. These little guys are all here for Lin Chen."

Hao Jifeng also did not hide the reason why Lord Lingxiao Academy chose to conduct Martial Way exchange with Canglan Academy, saying it very directly. Lord Lingxiao Academy was here for Lin Chen.

As for that Luo Han...

The third in the four major academies to refine the heart and liver, this title didn't count for anything at all.

To put it bluntly, this ranking list for the Academy's true ones, no one would look at it, and it wouldn't be taken seriously at all.

"Hmm, Lin Chen should be able to spare some time."

Jiang Mingda nodded in agreement. Lin Chen was the signboard of Canglan Academy and could attract geniuses from other academies. The high-level officials of Canglan Academy knew this point in their hearts.

But Canglan Academy was not cultivating Lin Chen as a disciple alone. This batch of new students had a hundred disciples. This kind of Martial Way exchange opportunity was also a rare opportunity for the disciples of Canglan Academy.

If you want to see Lin Chen, you can, but first spar with other disciples of the Academy.

Luo Han didn't know the thoughts of the Academy's high-level officials. Being asked by the Vice Dean to go to the gate to welcome the people of Lord Lingxiao Academy, he thought in his heart that the Academy had already recognized his status as the number one new student.

In the Hall of Hard Training.

Lin Chen was covered in silver needles. Unlike when he started lying down, he was now able to stand.

Not far away, Xiao Yaojin and Fang Zhan were lying there, also covered in silver needles, but the number was much less than Lin Chen's.

"Lin Shixiong, have you heard? Today, people from Lord Lingxiao Academy came to our Academy for Martial Way exchange."

Fang Zhan spoke. After two months of suffering, the three of them could now endure this silver needle pain and still have the energy to converse.

Conversation was also a means to divert attention and reduce pain.

"People from Lord Lingxiao Academy?"

Lin Chen didn't know about this; no one had told him.

"Lin Shixiong doesn't know?"

Before Lin Chen could answer, Xiao Yaojin spoke first: "Lin Shixiong is busy with cultivation every day, how could he know about this?"

"That's right. With Lin Shixiong's strength, there's no need to care about these. Lin Shixiong's goal should be placed on the Academy competition."

Hearing Fang Zhan's words, Lin Chen shook his head: "Fang Shidi, you think too highly of me. Until now, I have only refined one organ, and there has been no breakthrough in realm. The Academy also knows this, so they don't intend to let me participate in the exchange competition."

"Speaking of realm, Luo Han refined his liver a few days ago, but he has been jumping up and down, acting as if he is the number one in our batch, and wants to represent our Academy to fight with Lord Lingxiao Academy."

Fang Zhan had a look of contempt in his eyes. In his heart, the only one he could call "Shixiong" was Lin Shixiong alone. Luo Han was nothing.

"Fang Shidi, that Luo Han's strength is not bad to begin with, and now that he has refined his liver, I'm afraid his strength is not below mine. We are all Academy disciples. If Luo Han can defeat Lord Lingxiao Academy, it will also add glory to our Academy."

Xiao Yaojin, who was originally preparing to speak, heard Lin Chen's words, and scenes he didn't want to recall emerged in his mind.

Lin Shixiong is at it again!

The familiar "I'm afraid his strength is not below mine."

He believed this sentence at the beginning and almost became a joke.

"Lin Shixiong, do you really think so?" Xiao Yaojin couldn't help but turn his face to look at Lin Chen and ask.

"Hmm."

Lin Chen nodded very seriously. He really thought so, because he hadn't sparred with Luo Han, nor had he sparred with martial artists who had refined two organs. He analyzed it based on the growth degree of strength in the Acupuncture Stage.

In the Acupuncture Stage, for every additional acupoint opened, strength will be greatly improved. Four acupoints are a hurdle, and there are only five organs in the Organ Cultivation Stage. For every additional organ refined, I'm afraid the increase in strength will be extremely terrifying.

Xiao Yaojin pursed his lips. He thought of a possibility to explain it. Maybe because of his background, Lin Shixiong didn't know what the strength gap between each realm was, which led to such an erroneous judgment.

"Fang Shixiong."

In a pavilion in the Academy, Fang Zhan sat with a young girl, the girl had a look of resentment on her face, while Xiao Yaojin was lying quietly not far away.

"Qiao Shimei, I really didn't do it on purpose. It was also decided at the last minute to come to Canglan Academy, and there was no time."

Facing Qiao Meng'er's gaze, Fang Zhan was full of guilt. He and Qiao Meng'er both came from the South, and the relationship between the two families was also good. At the beginning, they both chose Lord Lingxiao Academy and received the Lord Lingxiao Academy disciple letter early.

But as Lin Shixiong became famous, was named on the Martial Way Mountain seven times, and joined Canglan Academy, he changed his mind and decided to come to Canglan Academy. Because it was a last-minute change of mind, in order to catch up with Canglan Academy's assessment, he came in a hurry and forgot to notify Qiao Shimei.

"However, I don't regret choosing to come to Canglan Academy."

Fang Zhan then changed the subject, with a look of pride on his face: "Giving up Lord Lingxiao Academy and choosing to come to Canglan Academy is the most correct choice I have made. Shimei, you don't know, I, Fang Zhan, have never been convinced by anyone. Lin Shixiong is the only one who makes me convinced..."

Qiao Meng'er watched Fang Zhan open the conversation box, constantly talking about Lin Chen, and a trace of disappointment flashed in her beautiful eyes.

She came to Canglan Academy to find Fang Shixiong, but this was not what she wanted to hear.

"Tomorrow is the Martial Way exchange between the two academies. Is Fang Shixiong participating?" Qiao Meng'er interrupted Fang Zhan's words.

"Let's see. If Lin Shixiong participates, I will participate."

In the past, Fang Zhan was very keen on this kind of Martial Way exchange, but after cultivating with Lin Shixiong for two months, he became open-minded about these duels.

Even if he took first place in the exchange meeting, so what?

Wasn't he still beaten into admitting defeat by Lin Shixiong in a few palms? "Then Fang Shixiong must be careful. There is a senior brother in our batch whose strength is very strong." Qiao Meng'er stood up: "I'll go back and rest first."

"Ah, leaving already?"

Fang Zhan was a bit surprised. Qiao Meng'er smiled slightly: "After traveling for several days, my body is a bit uncomfortable."

"Body uncomfortable? Then you must rest well. I'll send you back, Shimei."

"No need. If our Academy's senior brothers see it, they will think I am leaking information to you, revealing the details of our Academy."

Qiao Meng'er refused. Fang Zhan watched Qiao Meng'er's departing back and scratched his head: "From Lord Lingxiao City to Donghai Road, although it takes a few days, with Shimei's strength, it shouldn't be that her body is uncomfortable, right?"

"Idiot."

Xiao Yaojin, who was lying not far away, suddenly sat up and spat out two words.

Although he didn't like romance, he could feel that this Qiao Shimei had feelings for this idiot Fang Zhan, and this idiot didn't know it.

In the past, he hung the words of envying Lin Shixiong on his lips, shouting that he also wanted to find a Shimei. He thought this idiot understood these things, but he didn't expect he was not even as good as himself.

"Xiao Yaojin, who are you talking about?"

"I said, call me Xiao Huo in the Academy!"

Xiao Yaojin frowned. He and Fang Zhan were unconvinced by each other, and both called each other Junior Brother. They fought several times for this, but didn't decide a winner, so they finally agreed to call each other by name.

"I just don't know what's the point of you using a fake name. Are you afraid of losing face for your family?"

"You don't understand."

Using a fake name is not because he is afraid of losing face for himself, but because he is afraid of bringing trouble to Canglan Academy.

Xiao family disciples are rejected by several countries.

Fang Zhan opened his mouth, preparing to retort again, when suddenly an exclamation erupted from not far away.

The two looked in the direction of the sound, only to see many people gathered on the grass not far away.

The next moment, the two saw a figure fly out from the crowd.

"Luo Han?"

Xiao Yaojin and Fang Zhan looked at each other. Although neither of them had any good feelings for Luo Han, seeing Luo Han beaten away, their expressions still sank.

The Martial Way exchange starts tomorrow. Did they start fighting today?

"The number one of the new batch of Canglan Academy? Just this bit of ability?"

In the crowd, Fu Ze from Lord Lingxiao Academy spoke coldly, his gaze sweeping over the disciples of Canglan Academy on the scene, with disdain in his eyes.

And behind Fu Ze, the other two Lord Lingxiao Academy disciples also had smiles on their faces.

This battle was intentional by the three of them. They came to Canglan Academy for Lin Chen, but Lin Chen was in closed-door cultivation, which made them very disappointed.

But what made them even more unhappy was this Luo Han of Canglan Academy. When he took them around Canglan Academy, he said one sentence that he had already refined his liver, and another sentence that he was the first in Canglan Academy to do so.

In his words, he acted as if he was the number one new student in Canglan Academy.

Fu Ze and the three were very disgusted with this Luo Han, and since Lin Chen was in closed-door cultivation, they would defeat Luo Han first. For the sake of face, Canglan Academy would inevitably send Lin Chen to the field.

As for how to break out a conflict with Luo Han, that was even simpler. As long as they mocked him, this Luo Han's temper would inevitably not be able to hold back.

The result was as they expected. Luo Han couldn't stand the provocation and really made a move.

So what if he refined two organs?

Which of the three of them hadn't refined two organs? They were just too lazy to announce it to the outside world.

The new batch of disciples of Canglan Academy, listening to Fu Ze's words, had anger on their faces, but anger was anger. Since even Luo Han Shixiong was defeated, they were not Fu Ze's opponents either.

Not far away, the disciples of the previous batch of Canglan Academy were also talking with the disciples of Lord Lingxiao Academy, and were also attracted by the movement here.

"Li Shixiong, the junior brothers of your Lord Lingxiao Academy are a bit too much."

Zhang Shan had a cold face. Hearing this, Li He laughed: "Zhang Shidi, why care? Fu Shidi and the others are arrogant in their words. Your Academy should just send someone to teach them a lesson. Our Lord Lingxiao Academy will absolutely not shield them."

"That's right, martial artists still rely on strength to speak. If Fu Shidi and the others are not as skilled as others, even if they are beaten half to death, our Lord Lingxiao Academy will not have a word of nonsense."

Hearing this, Zhang Shan didn't say anything more. Martial Way exchange indeed relies on strength to speak. Luo Han losing today and losing in tomorrow's exchange was no different, but the words of the Lord Lingxiao Academy disciples were too aggressive.

"Zhang Shidi, I suggest you'd better let Lin Chen come out. Our batch of junior brothers has produced a fierce person."

In front of the grass, Luo Han was helped up by other junior brothers, his face blue and white. He didn't expect this Fu Ze to have also refined two organs. Did he break through on the way here?

"I underestimated the enemy just now."

Luo Han spoke, wanting to regain some face for himself.

It's just that when he said this, not many people on the scene recognized it.

Defeated in three moves, this was not the reason for underestimating the enemy.

Those who can enter the Academy are geniuses, and they won't even see this point.

"If there is no one in Canglan Academy, I think there is no need for this Martial Way exchange. I will tell the instructor tomorrow, and our Lord Lingxiao Academy disciples will go back. Staying here is a waste of time."

"What a big tone!"

Outside the crowd, a voice came. The junior brothers of Canglan Academy looked in the direction of the sound. When they saw Fang Zhan and Xiao Yaojin, a bright look appeared on their faces.

The performance of these two senior brothers at the entrance ceremony was extremely dazzling, not inferior to Luo Shixiong at all.

With these two senior brothers here, they should be able to regain some face for the Academy, at least not let the Lord Lingxiao Academy disciples be so arrogant.

Fu Ze didn't know Fang Zhan and Xiao Yaojin, but a youth behind Fu Ze shrank his pupils the moment Fang Zhan and Xiao Yaojin appeared and took a step forward, standing in front of Fu Ze.

"You are not the opponent of these two, step back."

Fu Ze was stunned. He didn't expect Meng Shixiong to say such words, but as their batch's Senior Brother, he didn't dare to refute Meng Shixiong's words.

"Meng Xing, your Lord Lingxiao Academy is really arrogant."

Fang Zhan stared at Meng Xing. North Xiao, South Fang, Meng family in the middle.

The disciples of the three families met very early and knew each other.

The Xiao family's spear, the Fang family's saber, and the Meng family's hammer were the best in Daliang.

"I just want to fight Lin Chen."

Meng Xing spoke faintly. He was also interested in Lin Chen at the beginning, but he didn't choose to come to Canglan Academy, but went to Lord Lingxiao Academy.

"Okay."

Fang Zhan agreed directly. Meng Xing was stunned. This was different from what he imagined.

With his understanding of Fang Zhan, if he wanted to fight that Lin Chen, he would definitely have to fight Fang Zhan first.

On the scene, only Xiao Yaojin knew what Fang Zhan was planning.

Lin Shixiong's strength was there. Fang Zhan was going to let Meng Xing also enjoy the treatment they both had.

At this moment, the top of Canglan Peak!

Lin Chen's Wind and Cloud Palm was unleashed, palm shadows overlapped, and the grass and trees on the top of the mountain kept bowing in the whistling palm wind.

Palm Five, Palm Six, Palm Seven...

If Xiao Yaojin and Fang Zhan were here, they would definitely be surprised to find that Lin Chen's Wind and Cloud Palm actually contained spear intent and saber intent.

After a long while, Lin Chen withdrew his palm and took out the Long Yinggong from his bosom.

Pulling the bow to the full string, it made a soul-stirring sound.

With one arrow shot out, cold light exploded.

Ten giant trees were pierced through, and the cold light stabbed directly at the cliff of the next mountain peak, finally making a shocking explosion, actually appearing a hole one zhang wide.

"Body forging level three is the only way to truly exert the power of the Long Yinggong."

Lin Chen had a bright look in his eyes. By today, relying on devilish cultivation, his body forging finally reached 3.0.

Unfortunately, there was no original Qi and blood value on the panel, so he couldn't judge how much his strength had increased.

Fang Shidi and Xiao Shidi could no longer make him go all out.

The spear intent and saber intent contained in the two junior brothers' fist and palm techniques had also been integrated into his Wind and Cloud Palm.

Sparring with the two junior brothers again would not improve his Wind and Cloud Palm much.

Could it be that he had to spar with the senior brothers of the previous batch?
