98: Zhang team established

Hearing this, Li Mingxuan's eyes flashed with deep thought. The name 'Mad Student' Ye Wuji was truly thunderous among this batch of new students.

This person's initial ranking was twelfth on the new student list, and his wild and unrestrained personality and madness in battle left a deep impression.

It is said that he had already stepped into the Martial Warrior Sixth Level, and some even rumored that he was about to break through to the late Martial Warrior Realm.

As for the commoner goddess Liu Ruyan, although she came from an ordinary background, her appearance and temperament were both extraordinary, and her archery skills were so unpredictable that it was impossible to fathom them.

"Ye Wuji and Liu Ruyan are indeed rare powerhouses." Li Mingxuan slowly nodded, his tone carrying a hint of approval. "If we can get them to join, our team's strength will significantly increase.

However, since these two haven't joined other teams, they might not necessarily join us either."

Qin Tian pondered for a moment and said, "I've also heard of Ye Wuji. It seems he's also from a Family influence, which might be a bit difficult to handle.

As for Liu Ruyan, I heard that although she is a commoner, she is arrogant. Other teams have also invited her, but she refused them all."

Hearing this, Li Mingxuan's gaze became deeper. He gently stroked his chin, seemingly contemplating a strategy to break the deadlock.

"Whether it's Family influence or an arrogant personality, none of this should be a reason for us to give up. There aren't many people we can recruit now.

To get a good ranking, the team members cannot be careless.

True powerhouses often have their own unique pursuits and principles. As long as we can find the point that resonates with them, we might be able to persuade them."

"Qin Tian, you are responsible for investigating Ye Wuji's background, seeing what kind of existence the Family behind him is, and his personal views on teamwork."

Qin Tian nodded. He knew that once Li Mingxuan made up his mind, he wouldn't easily change it.

"Understood, I'll go do it now. What about Liu Ruyan?"

"Liu Ruyan, I will personally contact her."

Li Mingxuan smiled slightly, a flash of confidence in his eyes. "The reason she refused other teams might be that those teams couldn't give her what she wanted.

And I will let her see the difference in our team, make her believe that with us, she can go further."

A few hours later, Qin Tian returned with as detailed information as possible, but there was no trace of Ye Wuji's background.

However, his actions within the academy were traceable, so it was possible to discern a thing or two.

"Ye Wuji's identity should be extraordinary, but he probably didn't rely on the forces behind him. Instead, he earned resources to Cultivate himself. I guess he's not the same type of person as Huang Yao and those others; he's a true Martial Artist." Qin Tian couldn't help but exclaim while reporting.

"That's simple. Let's meet him and have a fight, so he can see our strength."

Li Mingxuan smiled slightly, "As long as we get one spot among the three teams, we can get a reward first.

If we then enter the competition and reach the top eight, the rewards will be massive. It's impossible for him not to be tempted."

After saying this, led by Qin Tian, Li Mingxuan and the others arrived in front of Ye Wuji's dormitory door. The scene before them made everyone pause in surprise.

"You're here?"

They didn't expect that Ye Wuji seemed to have known they would come and was actually waiting for them.

Li Mingxuan wasn't surprised at all. He took a step forward and met Ye Wuji's gaze. "Since you know we're coming, you should know our purpose."

Ye Wuji nodded calmly, "Naturally. My joining other teams would only be adding wings to a tiger. As for me, I need a challenge, and that challenge is you."

"What? Are you saying you want to lead us to defeat them?"

Li Mingxuan and the others weren't fools, so they naturally understood the meaning behind his words.

"What a truly arrogant fellow. If you're so amazing, why don't you enter the competition yourself?"

Zhao Qianjun sneered. He took a step to Li Mingxuan's side. "You don't need Brother Xuan to deal with you. I'll fight you!"

Just as he was about to attack, Li Mingxuan stopped him. "Don't be impulsive. He's Martial Warrior Eighth Level; you're no match!"

"What?!"

"How is that possible?"

Qin Tian and the Shao brothers were all shocked, looking at Ye Wuji with a hint of disbelief.

Hearing this, Ye Wuji also restrained a bit of his contempt and looked at Li Mingxuan with a trace of seriousness.

"To be able to see through my strength at a glance, I suppose your strength shouldn't be low either?"

He then carefully sized up Li Mingxuan again. "As far as I know, you're not from a Family influence, yet you actually relied on yourself to break through to the late Martial Warrior Realm. That's interesting."

Saying this, he took out a pair of black and gold gloves. The moment he put them on, a unique Aura emanated from him.

"Intent? Is this Fist Intent?"

This time, everyone was completely stunned. Even counting the senior students from the second year, those who had comprehended Fist Intent could be counted on one hand.

In this era, swords and blades were mostly dominant, followed by spears, halberds, and daggers. Other forms of intent were very rare.

"With the pair of fists in my hands, even if you are Martial Scholar Ninth Level, I might not necessarily lose!"

Ye Wuji grinned, "How about it? Want to fight?"

"Fight? Why not?"

Li Mingxuan returned the smile, "If you lose, join our team and listen to my commands, how about it?"

"Okay!"

Ye Wuji nodded confidently, a flash of greed in his eyes. "If I win, ten bottles of high-grade spiritual liquid plus five thousand points!"

Li Mingxuan didn't answer, but just beckoned to Ye Wuji with his hand, then clenched his fists as if provoking him.

"Hmph, arrogant!"

Ye Wuji's expression turned cold. The next moment, he shot out, simultaneously unleashing a punch, as if a fierce tiger was roaring.

Everyone's expression changed, but Li Mingxuan's expression focused, and a unique Aura also emanated from his body. When he unleashed a punch, it was actually accompanied by a dragon's roar.

"Boom!"

The two fists collided, and the air seemed to be torn apart, erupting in a deafening roar. Everyone's bodies actually trembled from it.

Dust flew up, obscuring everyone's vision. Only two figures remained, intertwined and colliding in the blur. Each clash was accompanied by the dull thud of flesh hitting flesh, making people's hearts palpitate.

"Mm-hmm!"

With a muffled grunt, the two separated as soon as they touched. Their expressions didn't change, but Ye Wuji suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

He looked at Li Mingxuan in shock, "You actually comprehended Fist Intent too?"

Li Mingxuan's expression remained unchanged, "Now, can you join our team?"

Ye Wuji showed a complex expression. After a moment, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and nodded.

"Understood!"

"What about you, Student Liu?"

Li Mingxuan suddenly turned around and looked towards the direction outside the door. Everyone was startled and turned their heads to look. They saw a black-dressed woman with flowing long hair and exquisite features appearing outside the door. They hadn't noticed her at all before.

"Why not?"

Liu Ruyan smiled happily and stepped into the courtyard.

At this point, Li Mingxuan's team was complete!
