395: Chapter 395 A meteoric rise in status, a dark horse!
Early next morning.
"Did you hear? Something big happened yesterday!"
"Huh? What big deal?"
"You don't know this? A guy named Li Fan, along with the Wushan Seat Group Members, caused trouble, beating up a bunch of people! He even went to Qingyun Project Star and beat up the prodigies there!"
"Hiss! My goodness! Is he crazy? So fierce?!"
"I heard that Xu Yuntong was behind it, instigating people to retaliate against Li Fan's friends. Then Li Fan, with the Wushan Seat Group Members, beat everyone up. In the end, it seems an Immortal Level expert intervened to resolve the matter!"
"Good heavens! So, Li Fan and his group were the righteous ones?"
"Indeed. As the saying goes, calamity does not extend to family and friends! That Xu Yuntong acted improperly, breaking the rules first. You can't blame Li Fan for coming to settle the score!"
"Yeah, but seriously, this Li Fan is truly loyal and protective of his own. If the prodigies in our domain encountered this, they might not stand up for us, right?"
"What do you mean 'might not'? It's absolutely impossible, okay? I'd say this Li Fan has a bit of a crazy streak. Do you know what punishment Li Fan ended up with?"
That Immortal Level expert said if Li Fan doesn't enter the top fifteen in this Sequence Assessment, he'll be demoted to the Haoyue Plan. Originally, that Immortal Level expert gave Li Fan a chance to choose; if he admitted his mistake, he'd get a lighter sentence. But this Li Fan is just stubborn; he insists on challenging this requirement, not admitting a single mistake!"
"Ah?! Is this Li Fan that outrageous? Top fifteen? Doesn't that mean he's definitely going to the Haoyue Plan? It seems we really can't provoke this Li Fan and the Wushan Seat Group Members in the future. If they target us, we probably won't have a good outcome!"
"Damn! 'Demoted to the Haoyue Plan,' what an unfamiliar phrase! I can't even get into the Star Chasing Plan!"
...
At this moment, in the Four Great Stars.
Everyone was heatedly discussing Li Fan and the Wushan Seat Group Members' actions from yesterday.
There are no walls that can keep secrets.
Moreover, Li Fan and the others yesterday made no attempt to conceal anything; they were completely boisterous and as high-profile as could be.
So, it was inevitable that the news would spread so quickly.
It must be said.
Li Fan's fierce move.
Indeed achieved the effect of 'beating the bush to startle the snake.'
After hearing Li Fan's deeds, everyone frowned at Li Fan and the Wushan Seat Group Members.
They didn't dare to have any thoughts of provoking them.
With someone powerful, extremely protective, and possibly a bit crazy covering them.
How could they dare now?
Li Fan didn't even flinch in front of an Immortal Level existence; dealing with them would be effortless, wouldn't it?
If one's gaze were to fall upon the Provisional Stars now, the Wushan Seat Group Members would be called "Brother" or "Sister" wherever they went.
Their status here had soared!
And speaking of which.
While Li Fan and the Wushan Seat Group Members made their fearsome reputation known.
The punishment Li Fan faced had also spread.
Clearly.
Almost no one believed Li Fan could break into the top fifteen!
Everyone was convinced that Li Fan would be placed in the Haoyue Plan.
In the Haoyue Plan Star, many people were even panicking, fearing that this madman, Li Fan, would come and become their neighbor.
...
Time flew by.
Two days passed quietly.
The Four Great Stars were extremely lively now, and the discussion about Li Fan had grown even larger, but the biggest topic wasn't about Li Fan.
The reason was simple.
Tomorrow was the qingyun plan's Sequence Assessment.
What everyone was most eagerly discussing now were the top prodigies in the qingyun plan!
For example, Han Luo from the Han Family.
Yun Yang from the Yunlan Family Group.
Sang Yuening from Ling Sang Pavilion.
These were all publicly known top prodigies who had already comprehended Three Strands of Law Power!
They had been famous for a long time.
They were the main contenders for the championship in this assessment.
As for Li Fan, he was at most a small bonus after them, purely a side show to casually watch.
At this moment, on a star not far from the training area.
Tai Fang was conversing with several people who appeared to be of considerable status.
"There are really many good seedlings in this talent training session. Just those who have comprehended Three Strands of Law Power are quite a few. In the past, they would all be undisputed champions."
The speaker was a kind-faced old woman. Although she looked very old, the blood and qi emanating from her entire body were incredibly robust, and her aura was extraordinary.
"Indeed, the younger generation is always stronger, and now is also a time of trouble. Heroes emerge in chaotic times, so it's normal to have many good seedlings," the old man beside her said with a smile.
The old woman nodded, then looked at Tai Fang beside her. "Little Tai, tomorrow is the Sequence Assessment. Who do you think will win first place? Will there be any dark horses among them?"
Tai Fang listened, pondered for a moment, then respectfully said,
"It's really hard for me to judge who will win first place right now. Han Luo, Yun Yang, Sang Yuening, and a few other geniuses who are said to be close to comprehending Three Strands of Law Power, they all have a chance to win first place."
"But as for a dark horse, currently, I've only found one. This person is named Li Fan, from Wushan Seat. Although he comes from the Outer Seat Domain and currently seems to have only comprehended one strand of Law Power, his realm is not low; he has already reached Universe Level Three!"
He can grow so quickly in such a barren place. It's hard to imagine how high his achievements would be if he had grown up in the Supreme Seat Domain since childhood!"
Tai Fang's tone was calm, his statement heartfelt.
The others nodded upon hearing this.
They didn't comment on who would get first place, as they had only asked casually for entertainment; without truly seeing them compete, they couldn't be certain.
However, this dark horse was indeed dark enough.
So dark that they had never even heard of Li Fan's name.
And he was actually from an Outer Seat Domain.
This even surprised them a little.
After all, according to past situations, while there were geniuses from Outer Seat Domains who became dark horses and achieved significant accomplishments, they were very few.
"If what you say is true, then this Li Fan indeed has some potential." The old woman nodded at this point, a faint hint of curiosity in her eyes.
She understood Tai Fang, so she trusted his judgment.
"Wushan Seat, if I'm not mistaken, isn't that where that little girl Ai Xin is responsible for screening? That little girl has always had good judgment," the old man beside her said slowly, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Tai Fang nodded.
But then, Tai Fang sighed, "This Li Fan has good potential, but his personality is a bit extreme..."
Then Tai Fang mentioned the requirement for Li Fan to enter the top fifteen.
Upon hearing this, several people couldn't help but frown, then slowly spoke,
"It's fine. If he truly has heaven-defying talent, he will still shine brightly in the Haoyue Plan, and he can return to the qingyun plan later."
"Indeed, being demoted in plan level may not be a bad thing. Tempering one's character is also good. Anyway, he's still young and has the capital to spend time."
Listening to their words, Tai Fang nodded.
He still felt a bit regretful about Li Fan's choice, and even began to wonder if the ranking was set too high; perhaps setting it at fifty or a hundred would have been more reasonable.
However, hearing the words of the seniors, he felt somewhat relieved.
Indeed.
Li Fan was still young and had the capital to spend.
"It's getting late, seniors. I need to handle the matters for tomorrow's Sequence Assessment, so I'll take my leave now. You are welcome to attend and observe then."
Tai Fang rose to take his leave, respectfully bowing deeply to the others.
