8: Haotian Lin Yan, challenge the sect!

"Haha."

"Old Duan!"

"Old Jing!"

Lin Yan glanced at the two old men holding hands in front of him, then shifted his gaze toward the grand gates of Anyi University.

Welcome Haotian University for a friendly exchange.

He looked at the reporters swarming around, raised an eyebrow, and his eyes grew thoughtful.

"Principal Duan."

"May I ask if this is the first cross-school exchange since your school's founding?"

"Principal Duan."

"The Dragon Kingdom hasn't established another first-class university or higher in so many years."

"May I ask if you took some sort of shortcut?"

"Principal Duan."

"What were you thinking when you named the school 'Haotian'?"

"Does it represent your intention to crush all of The Four Great Ones in our country?"

Duan Tiancheng, whose face was nearly hit by microphones, was full of smiles.

"Old Jing."

"I didn't expect that after all these years, you would still be so serene."

Jing Anxiang smiled and waved to the numerous media outlets.

"Old Duan."

"I also didn't expect that after all these years, you'd want to defy the heavens when we met again."

His gaze swept over the Haotian University personnel behind Duan Tiancheng, eventually fixing on the quietly standing Lin Yan.

"This must be Yu Jiao, right?"

"Tsk tsk."

"Back during the college entrance exam, I was thinking..."

Lin Yan's tone was calm.

"Lin Yan."

Maybe I should use Fierce Tiger Climbs the Mountain.

Jing Anxiang paused slightly, but the smile remained on his face.

"Nephew Yuan Cheng!"

"It's been many years since we last met."

"Say, why would you choose to..."

Lin Yan remained calm.

"Lin Yan."

Forget it, I'll use Yama's Three Pokes.

Jing Anxiang smiled.

"Haha!"

"I'm just someone who likes to joke around with young people."

"Student Lin Yan, don't mind me."

"Welcome to our school for the exchange."

"I'm telling you, your Principal Duan and I are..."

Duan Tiancheng was about to speak.

Lin Yan nodded.

"Principal Anxiang, I heard you just now."

"You are very serene."

Jing Anxiang's expression stiffened.

"Cough..."

Duan Tiancheng gave a light cough and looked toward the school gate, feigning admiration.

"As expected of the old school Anyi."

"I can feel this intense martial arts atmosphere even before entering the gates."

He spoke to the Vice Principal beside him.

"Right?"

Huh?

The Vice Principal looked at Anyi University, where not a single soul was in sight, wiped his sweat, and answered cautiously.

"I... suppose?"

Jing Anxiang gave a thumbs up.

"Old Duan, it has to be you."

"We're so far from the Martial Arts Hall, yet you can already feel that fiery atmosphere."

He glanced once more at the sparse group from Haotian University.

"Is everyone here?"

Duan Tiancheng nodded.

"Everyone is here."

"Lin Yan."

"Ranked first in this monthly exam, he is our only exchange student."

Oh?

Jing Anxiang narrowed his eyes slightly.

You old geezer.

What's the meaning of this?

He glanced at the surrounding media reporters, the smile on his face growing even wider.

"Haha."

"Shall we go then?"

Duan Tiancheng nodded.

"Let's go."

The group entered the school gates in a grand manner, led by Jing Anxiang toward the Anyi University Martial Arts Hall.

*Ding-dong.*

Lin Yan looked down at the message on his wristband.

"Kid."

"I made a mistake."

"The situation today isn't right."

"Remember what I just said; admitting defeat isn't scary."

He looked at the back of the man ahead laughing and chatting with Jing Anxiang and typed two words.

"Don't worry."

He looked up at the Martial Arts Hall they had reached, sensing the oppressive Aura emanating from within, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

I guarantee I'll leave them all crippled.

"We're here."

"Come."

"Let's go this way."

"It leads straight to the rostrum."

"Exchange participants take the lower entrance."

Duan Tiancheng frowned slightly as he looked at the side door Jing Anxiang pointed to.

Jing Anxiang smiled.

"We'll leave the rest to the young people."

"We just need to watch closely."

He turned his head toward Lin Yan.

"Right, Student Lin Yan?"

Lin Yan replied with a smile.

"Of course."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Under numerous gazes, he walked alone toward the ajar main doors.

*Tap... tap... tap...*

The sound of light footsteps echoed.

As Lin Yan approached the doors.

Bursts of rhythmic drumming and roaring shouts came from inside.

*Boom boom... boom boom...*

"Anyi welcomes Haotian University for the exchange!"

"Haha."

Jing Anxiang laughed loudly.

"These kids."

"Let's go..."

His pupils suddenly constricted.

The youth raised his foot.

*BANG!*

The doors were kicked open.

"Haotian University, Lin Yan."

"Here to challenge the school!"

"Holy crap!"

The media members paused for a split second before sprinting forward frantically.

"Quick!"

"Keep up!!"

"Cough..."

Duan Tiancheng coughed lightly and spoke to the Vice Principal.

"Young people sure have a lot of energy, huh?"

The Vice Principal was wiping his sweat frantically.

"Yes, yes."

Duan Tiancheng walked forward quickly while winking frantically to the side.

Energy my foot!

Hurry up and call the Infirmary staff over!!

What are you just standing there for!!

And what is with this kid?!

We talked it over on the way here, and I just sent him a message; did you seriously not listen to a single word?

I shouldn't have agreed to this. If he had just stayed and Cultivated, none of this would be happening.

Jing Anxiang turned his head with a cold face.

"Who was responsible for this door?"

"I want a detailed self-criticism report later!"

After speaking, he immediately followed them.

Several Anyi University School Leaders looked at each other.

Wait, Chief.

It wasn't even locked; a light push would have opened it.

Also.

Who the hell would have thought someone would come to our school to kick down a door!

The massive commotion simultaneously alerted students from other grades at Anyi University.

They all looked toward the Martial Arts Hall with puzzled expressions.

Didn't they say it was a first-year exchange?

With their destructive power, can they even tear down a building?

...Inside the hall, it was dead silent.

Everyone turned their gazes toward the figure in the black tracksuit at the entrance, their eyes filled with fury.

On the central arena.

A youth held a long spear, and a girl gripped a precious sword tightly, their gazes cold.

Lin Yan stared at the figures blocking the path to the central arena, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

Interesting.

No need for nonsense; that one shout was enough.

The youth stepped forward and charged.

The floor let out a dull thud.

He gathered his Aura.

The first youth blocking the path, holding a saber, snorted and slashed down.

"Knock him down! Knock him down!"

"Anyi will win!!"

The Martial Arts Hall suddenly shook with roars again.

From the moment Lin Yan kicked the door and shouted.

The nature of this exchange had completely changed.

The Anyi University freshmen, who had originally only intended to suppress him with their Aura, all became furious.

They were all young; who could tolerate this!

Now this... feels right!

The charging Lin Yan's pupils flickered, and he instantly appeared in front of the saber-wielding youth.

He sidestepped the blade's edge, his movements fast as lightning.

"What?"

The saber-wielding youth's eyes trembled.

Lin Yan spun and delivered an elbow strike.

"Stay down!"

*BANG!*

A massive force erupted, slamming violently into the youth's face.

*Pfft!*

He spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flying out like a cannonball for dozens of meters before crashing heavily onto the ground.

The entire Martial Arts Hall suddenly fell silent.

Everyone's eyes widened.

A first-order ninth-level, was insta-killed just like that?

The expressions of the two on the arena also changed slightly.

This Lin Yan!
