Chapter 223: Hu Jia and Lin Yan Enter the Battle, High Level Maneuvers
At this moment, on one of the spectator stands, Lin Xiuya, Yan Hao, and Han Yue were all staring in shock at the scene unfolding in the arena. Xun'er's display of power had left them utterly astonished this girl was unbelievably strong!
Her strength seemed almost on par with theirs, and yet… they still couldn't see through her true capabilities. It was simply unfathomable.
"Xun'er is pretty amazing," Zi Yan commented while munching on her "candy beans." "That flame of hers even makes me a little scared. I think it's even stronger than that annoying guy's fire."
The moment she said this, the surrounding people froze in shock.
If this "Brute Force Queen" was saying she feared Xun'er's flames…
Did that mean they would all be utterly crushed if they fought her?
Lin Xiuya, Yan Hao, and Han Yue dared not even imagine the possibility. Instead, they simply stared wide eyed at Xun'er, whose sweet expression now carried a hint of a smile.
Even Han Yue was momentarily captivated, while Lin Xiuya and Yan Hao two grown men couldn't deny that they were a bit smitten as well.
"They really kicked an iron plate this time," Yan Hao muttered, clearly taking pleasure in the downfall of Bai Cheng and his group.
Lin Xiuya chuckled dryly. "Yeah… who would've thought? The leader of the Dayan Alliance alone is strong enough to enter the Strong Ranking, and that fiery girl next to Wu Tian must be Dean Hu Qian's granddaughter. From what I hear, her strength isn't much weaker than Wu Hao's."
"That means the Dayan Alliance already has two Strong Ranking fighters."
"And now there's Xun'er, whose true strength is immeasurable. She could definitely reach the top twenty on the ranking."
"And let's not forget Wu Tian he casually sent Liu Qing flying. Liu Qing's strength is close to ours, and yet Wu Tian handled him like a child."
As Lin Xiuya spoke, the reality of the situation dawned on everyone.
At first, they had considered the Dayan Alliance just another new faction but now… it was an actual threat.
Han Yue, who had been silently staring at Wu Tian all this time, finally spoke in a calm voice:
"You're all correct, but you're forgetting one thing Lin Yan. He's with the Dayan Alliance now too."
"If they have him, they're not just one of the strongest factions they might be the strongest outright."
Hearing this, the three men stiffened.
Then came another shock.
"You guys got it mostly right," Zi Yan said casually as she continued popping candy beans into her mouth. "But you missed one thing I am part of the Dayan Alliance now too."
"Wait, wait, wait what?"
The three men gawked at her.
The "Brute Force Queen" joined the Dayan Alliance?!
Just for Wu Tian?!
MMP…
Wasn't this basically turning the Inner Academy into Wu Tian's personal playground?!
If things kept going this way, no one else would stand a chance!
A wave of panic spread through them.
Suddenly, everything felt wrong.
Too many prodigies were gathering here.
Something big was about to happen.
They weren't sure what, but their instincts screamed at them this was just the beginning of something massive.
Meanwhile, Xun'er stood on the arena stage, gazing at the stunned crowd. A cold smile appeared on her delicate face as she spoke:
"Is there anyone else who has a problem with the Dayan Alliance? If so, I, Xiao Xun'er, will be happy to entertain you."
The crowd fell into complete silence.
Bai Cheng had been a top fighter in the Strong Ranking.
Yet Xun'er had defeated him effortlessly.
That meant… she was even stronger than they had imagined.
She was breathtakingly beautiful, yet overwhelmingly powerful.
No one dared to utter a word.
The only ones who might have spoken up were those in the Strong Ranking themselves.
However… even they understood the situation.
If they provoked Xun'er, they weren't just dealing with her.
They were dealing with the entire Dayan Alliance and more importantly, Lin Yan was right there, watching like a predator.
Everyone knew Lin Yan's infamous madness.
Once he set his sights on someone, he would hound them relentlessly, challenging them to fights until they were completely drained.
Even if they won, they'd still be left exhausted and helpless.
Not to mention Lin Yan had been beaten by Zi Yan before.
And ever since then, he had been acting just like her beating people so badly that they couldn't even get out of bed for two weeks.
With both Xun'er and Lin Yan on their side, the Dayan Alliance was basically untouchable.
At this moment, several top ranking fighters exchanged glances.
Then, after a brief hesitation, three of them leapt down from the stands.
Wu Tian sighed, shaking his head.
Then he turned to Lin Yan and Hu Jia.
"You two, go help Xun'er."
The three opponents that had just jumped down weren't just any fighters.
They were all ranked within the top thirty, with the weakest of them being a Six Star Dou Ling.
Lin Yan's presence caused a slight stir but when Hu Jia stepped onto the stage, the audience erupted in shock.
She was already a well known beauty, so naturally, she drew a lot of attention.
But… wasn't she too weak to fight these guys?
What was she even doing here?
One of the opponents smirked and laughed mockingly.
"Little girl, why don't you step down? I'd hate to hurt you. What if you start crying later? Hahaha!"
"PAH!"
A crisp slap rang out.
The man who had just been laughing staggered back, clutching his face in shock.
"WHAT THE HELL, SHI LEI?! WHY DID YOU HIT ME?!"
The man named Shi Lei leaned in close and whispered sharply:
"Are you stupid?! That's Hu Qian's granddaughter! If you don't want to be banned from using Fire Energy for the rest of your life, shut the hell up!"
The man Te Teng froze.
Wait.
What?!
This was Hu Qian's granddaughter?!
Holy f*ck.
Everyone who had ever been in the Outer Academy knew one universal truth:
Hu Qian's training methods were hell.
There wasn't a single person who had entered the Inner Academy without suffering under his regime.
And yet despite how terrifying he was he was also the reason they had become strong enough to enter the Inner Academy in the first place.
And now… Te Teng had just flirted with his granddaughter.
He was dead.
His face turned pale as a sheet.
He suddenly forced a stiff smile.
"Haha… Haha… Actually, Hu Jia, I think I'd love to fight you. Let's go over here, shall we?"
The audience instantly understood.
This…
This was a masterclass in high level maneuvering.
Hu Jia hadn't even done anything, and one of the enemy fighters was already mentally defeated.
Wu Tian chuckled.
This was turning out to be even more entertaining than he expected.
And now that Lin Yan was stepping onto the stage…
Well.
Things were about to get a whole lot more chaotic.
