Chapter 593 (2/2)
”It will be even better if you can go there after the breakthrough. After all, you are already close to breaking through. If you can calm down and focus, you will be able to advance smoothly. You can then go there to consolidate and further increase your cultivation base,” said Xiang Shaoyun. Lady Shura nodded, expressing her agreement.
News of Xiang Shaoyun's visits to the two Phoenix Villas spread over the entire Dragon Phoenix Academy, creating a ma.s.sive commotion. Both the villas were occupied by the academy's two brightest flowers. Had Xiang Shaoyun set his eyes on both of them?
”That b.a.s.t.a.r.d Xiang Shaoyun seems to have successfully met Han Chenfei. Is he going to join the Glacier Palace?”
”I heard that too. It was said that earlier in the morning, Han Chenfei went to watch Xiang Shaoyun's battle. She seemed to have taken a liking to his two followers. Both of them have an ice-related physique that fits very well with Glacier Palace's cultivation method. I heard both of them are now staying in 2 Phoenix Villa.”
”Then that explains his visit to 2 Phoenix Villa. But he actually had the guts to claim that he is Beauty Yu's man. Is he suicidal?”
”Yeah. He thinks he can disregard all of us just because he has a nine-star physique? How can Beauty Yu be his? He has to first ask the saber in my hand for permission!”
”Both Beauty Yu and Beauty Han have a lot of white knights. Xiang Shaoyun won't have a good time on the ring tomorrow.”
...
Sure enough, when Xiang Shaoyun stood on the ring the next day, a large number of challengers appeared, including those at the upper range of the Serpent Fowl List. If it wasn't for the fact that a lot of geniuses were busy cultivating within the unique cultivation zones, there would be even more challengers. All of them adored Yu Caidie and Han Chenfei. n.o.body could forgive Xiang Shaoyun for publicly daring to proclaim Yu Caidie his.
That day, Xiang Shaoyun's opponent was someone ranked 507 on the Serpent Fowl List. Someone like this could already be considered an upper-cla.s.s member of the academy. One ought to know that there were only 100 spots on the Dragon Phoenix List and 1,000 spots on the Jiao Luan List. The rest of the disciples were listed on the Serpent Fowl List, and someone ranked 507 on the Serpent Fowl List was considered the 1,607th strongest disciple in the academy.
As usual, Xiang Shaoyun wagered all the contribution points he had. His challenger met the bet and wagered 30,000 contribution points. As for Tang Longfei, he opened his betting stand yet again. This time, a lot more people were betting at his stand.
After all, although Xiang Shaoyun looked rather impressive, from his previous two duels, his strength did not seem special. Otherwise, why would he have won the two duels with such difficulty?
More importantly, news of Xiang Shaoyun cultivating nine powers had also spread. Everyone started wondering if there was something wrong with his brain. What he did was no different than crus.h.i.+ng his future with his own hands. That was the main reason why the disciples no longer feared him.
Xiang Shaoyun would forever be stuck with using only one star, while they could use multiple stars. Thus, he would not be able to gain an advantage over them. More importantly, he was only a peak Skysoar Realm cultivator, his most glaring weakness. To defeat him, someone only needed to have a higher cultivation level and the ability to punch above one's weight.
As for Xiang Shaoyun's previous two victories, everyone believed they were due to the challengers underestimating him too much. But were they right? n.o.body would know without personally experiencing his strength.
