Presently, what appeared before the eyes of Duan Lingtian and the others was an area paved with luxurious limestone bricks.
On this limestone brick area, 10 spacious and luxurious courtyards stood there in an orderly manner. Every courtyard had a spacious house, and the lawn outside the houses was filled with flowers and plants that emitted the fragrance of flowers.
Compared to the area Duan Lingtian and the others were currently at, this area was simply like another world!
They followed the few middle aged men in to deliver food.
Young geniuses walked out successively from the 10 courtyards and received the fine wine and delicacies before returning to their courtyards to eat and drink.
"Isn't the person in the innermost courtyard the Crazy Young Master, Luo Zhan?"
Suddenly, an exclaim of surprise sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
Crazy Young Master?
Duan Lingtian's brows raised.
Although he'd never seen this Crazy Young Master in the past, Duan Lingtian had heard of him since long ago.
Crazy Young Master, the head of the five great young masters of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. In terms of strength and natural talent, he was at the top amongst the five great young masters!
"Luo Zhan!"
Sima Yang and Ji Feng who were by Duan Lingtian's side successively recognized Crazy Young Master Luo Zhan.
Not only that, they recognized quite a few of the young geniuses that occupied the other nine courtyards as well …
"What's going on? Why is their treatment so good, yet our treatment so bad? "
Sima Yang's expression was gloomy, and his voice was incomparably chilly.
"Perhaps … this is what Vice Dean Chi meant when he said, 'Different people enjoy different treatment.'"
Duan Lingtian's brows raised as he spoke slowly.
The nearby Ji Feng couldn't help but nod in agreement to Duan Lingtian's words.
"Exactly! All of us that were recommended to the Dragon and Phoenix Academy will be brought to the Outer Hall to live in a place that stinks to the heavens, sleep in extremely tattered palms, and eat rice soup that can't see the rice and moldy mantous … Whereas if we want to change our current situation, there's only one way, and that is to enter the Inner Hall! "
A young genius from the Outer Hall walked forward and successfully attracted the attention of Duan Lingtian and the others, before he continued, "As you can see … the treatment of the Inner Hall is completely different from that of the Outer Hall! In the Inner Hall, not only is the living environment the best, every meal is served with fine wine and delicacies. "
"And if you want to enter the Inner Hall and live in these luxurious courtyards, there's only one way … That is to defeat a young genius from one of the courtyards in the Inner Hall and replace him! In this way, the young genius that wins the challenge will be able to obtain the treatment of the person he defeated. He will be able to live in a comfortable and luxurious house and eat the best wine and delicacies. "
This young genius from the Outer Hall finished speaking in one breath.
As he spoke, his face was filled with envy.
"In this way, those people that are still unable to stay in the Inner Hall after a year … Even if the genius competition begins, it would be practically impossible for them to obtain the qualifications to head to the Darkstone Empire's Imperial City and approach the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties! “
Suddenly, someone said aloud.
"You can say that."
The young genius from the Outer Hall nodded, and then his eyes shone brightly. "So, I've set a goal for myself now … I must work hard to break through in this year and strive to win a place in the Inner Hall! Presently, the weakest person in the Inner Hall is an existence at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Stage or above. "
"This is still because not everyone has arrived … In these few days, the young geniuses recommended by the various powers of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom will gather together. At that time, those without a cultivation at the Half-step Void Stage or above will probably find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Inner Hall. "
When they heard this, the group of people by Duan Lingtian's side, including Ji Feng and Sima Yang, had serious expressions, and all of them deeply agreed.
"In this way, so long as I'm able to defeat any one of them, I'll be able to replace them, live in their courtyards, and enjoy the fine wine and delicacies that they're enjoying now?"
Sima Yang's eyes shone brightly as his figure flashed out to charge through the door and enter the Inner Hall area.
He intended to directly issue a challenge and replace one of the young geniuses in the Inner Hall.
"During mealtime and sleeping time … You're not allowed to issue a challenge!"
Right at this moment, a voice that was filled with energy sounded out from behind everyone, and it entered into Sima Yang's ears at the same time, causing Sima Yang to be unable to help but stop moving.
It was precisely the voice of the Vice Dean of the Dragon and Phoenix Academy, Chi Ming.
Presently, Chi Ming stood outside the exquisite house that was like a watchtower, and his gaze was sharp as he took in everything in the Outer Hall and Inner Hall.
"Looks like this Vice Dean Chi is staying here … To a certain extent, he's monitoring everything in the Inner Hall and Outer Hall! If anyone violates the rules, I'm afraid that person will be dragged out by him in a short moment. "
Duan Lingtian looked at the old man and thought in his heart.
"Hmph! Then we'll wait for them to finish eating. "
Sima Yang retreated.
Meanwhile, the group of young geniuses in the Outer Hall heard that someone wanted to challenge a member of the Inner Hall, and they'd finished eating the rice soup and moldy mantous in their hands before leaving their respective tents and walking over to join in the fun.
Slap!
A clear sound of shattering sounded out, and it was a bowl filled with rice soup that had been smashed onto the ground. Along with it was a moldy mantous that had been smashed onto the ground.
For a time, the gazes of the members of the Outer Hall present descended onto Duan Lingtian.
It was precisely Duan Lingtian who'd thrown away the rice soup and moldy mantous in his hand.
"I originally thought that everyone would receive the same treatment … But now it would seem that it isn't so! Since it's like this, there's no need for me to eat these things. "
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart, and his sharp gaze descended onto the Inner Hall.
Slap!
Right at this moment, Sima Yang smashed the bowl that contained the rice soup and moldy mantous in his hand onto the ground before fiercely stomping them flat. "I fucking won't eat these lousy things! I fucking want to eat fine wine and delicacies! "
"I'll join as well."
Ji Feng shook his head and smiled before smashing the bowl and mantous in his hand.
This caused the group of young geniuses in the Outer Hall to sigh.
"So it's the Ji Clan's Ji Feng and the Sima Clan's Sima Yang … No wonder they're so confident and dare directly smash the rice soup and mantous."
"Ji Feng? Sima Yang? They're the figures in our Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom whose natural talent is only inferior to the five great young masters? "
"Exactly! It's them. With their strength, I presume it isn't difficult for them to occupy a place in the Inner Hall. "
…
Some of the young geniuses in the Outer Hall recognized Ji Feng and Sima Yang, and they sighed with emotion.
"I'm not surprised that Ji Feng and Sima Yang are confident … But this violet clothed young man was the first to smash the rice soup and mantous, and he seems to be extremely confident as well."
"This young man looks to be not more than 25 … Even if he takes good care of himself, it ought to be impossible for him to be more than 30! I've never heard of such a figure in the younger generation of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. "
"Hmph! He smashed the rice soup and mantous, if he's unable to enter the Inner Hall … He'll have to starve for a meal. "
…
Many young geniuses in the Outer Hall couldn't help but shake their heads, and they didn't look favorably upon Duan Lingtian.
These people were all people that had arrived at the Dragon and Phoenix Academy since early in the morning.
Presently, there were many young geniuses that had just entered the Dragon and Phoenix Academy today, and all of them had expressions of disdain when they heard what these people said.
These people actually dared to look down upon Duan Lingtian?
Now, they were slightly anticipating how shocked these people would be when they witnessed Duan Lingtian's strength and found out about Duan Lingtian's identity …
They tacitly didn't speak of Duan Lingtian's identity and didn't refute these people.
Because they knew that there was no need for them to refute.
Duan Lingtian would use his actions to prove everything.
At this moment, even Ji Feng and Sima Yang tacitly didn't speak of Duan Lingtian's identity, and they obviously had similar thoughts.
"These fellows are eating so slowly!"
Sima Yang frowned and had an impatient expression.
Looking at others drinking fine wine and tasting fine delicacies while standing here and starving was a feeling that caused one to feel extremely displeased.
Finally, within the 10 courtyards in the Inner Hall, there was a young man around the age of 30 that was the first to finish sweeping up the fine wine and delicacies, and then he stood up. His ridiculing gaze descended onto Duan Lingtian and the others as he grinned. "Is there anyone that wants to challenge me, Chai Jin?"
Chai Jin!
As soon as the young man spoke, Duan Lingtian noticed that the expressions of Ji Feng, Sima Yang, and many other Outer Hall young geniuses went pale.
The Outer Hall young geniuses that didn't go pale were all people that had entered the Dragon and Phoenix Academy long ago, and the reason they weren't surprised was because they knew of the existence of Chai Jin since long ago.
"Chai Jin?"
Duan Lingtian saw that even Ji Feng and Sima Yang had lost their composure, and under his curiosity, his Spiritual Force swept out to envelop Chai Jin.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian found out the reason the expressions of Ji Feng and the others went pale.
"This Chai Jin is actually a first level Void Prying Stage martial artist?"
Duan Lingtian was slightly surprised.
A first level Void Prying Stage martial artist a little over 30 …
Such natural talent was able to compare with figures like the five great young masters.
"It's Chai Jin! The number one genius of the Black Fiend Sect. "
"Supposedly, this Chai Jin had only risen in the Black Fiend Sect in recent years, and had always been unknown to the public … In terms of natural talent, he's even not inferior to any one of the five great young masters of our Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom."
"Supposedly, this Chai Jin had already broken through to the first level of the Void Prying Stage half a year ago!"
…
The crowd of Outer Hall disciples discussed animatedly.
These discussions were heard by Duan Lingtian, and it caused Duan Lingtian's face to go pale.
Black Fiend Sect?
This sect was something he'd never forget in his entire lifetime!
The Black Fiend Sect, the sect that had once annihilated the Boundless Sect …
There wasn't any connection between the Boundless Sect and Duan Lingtian, and Duan Lingtian didn't care when the Boundless Sect was annihilated by the Black Fiend Sect.
What Duan Lingtian truly cared about was the scene of his dignity being trampled upon by the Black Fiend Sect's elder in the Misty Forest outside Aurora City …
Everything that happened at that time was something he couldn't forget for his entire lifetime.
He still remembered.
That Black Fiend Sect's elder was called Sun Rui!
"Sima, didn't you despise them for taking so long to eat a meal? Now that someone has finished eating, do you want to challenge him? "
Ji Feng looked at Sima Yang, and his eyes narrowed as he smiled.
Sima Yang rolled his eyes at Ji Feng. "If you're able, then you go … You clearly know that he's a first level Void Prying Stage martial artist, yet I go up, wouldn't that be looking for abuse?"
"I challenge you!"
