"The people from Zhenfeng College are here."
On the Soul Selection Platform, Jiang Ning, the examiner in charge of selecting souls, once again came to Ding Wen's side and said.
Ding Wen did not hide his disgusted expression. He tilted his head and saw Lu Ping and the other three walking through the crowd. Everywhere they passed, the atmosphere was a little strange. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the four people's back.
"They wrote something on their back …" Jiang Ning paid attention to Ding Wen's expression and saw that there was a little doubt in his disgust, so he explained.
"What did they write?" Ding Wen asked casually, but as soon as he finished asking, he immediately thought of something.
Jiang Ning did not answer. He could see that Ding Wen had already guessed it.
"Arrogant to the extreme!!" Ding Wen was furious. He could never calm down on this matter. Zhenfeng College's actions had simply touched his bottom line again and again.
If it wasn't in broad daylight, Ding Wen would have the heart to kill. He was extremely sure of this.
"They won't be smug for long." Jiang Ning said from the side.
Ding Wen did not know whether to agree or not, but his gaze became colder and colder.
The four of them came to the bottom of the Soul Selection Platform, but Lu Ping was stopped. He, who had been disqualified, no longer had the right to go up the Soul Selection Platform. If it wasn't for the fact that the inner city's control was relaxed to a certain extent during the Soul Selection Conference, allowing people to watch, he wouldn't even be allowed to enter the inner city.
Ding Wen looked at Lu Ping from above. He was hoping that Lu Ping would be more resistant and go over the line. That way, he would have enough reason to teach Lu Ping a lesson.
But he didn't.
Lu Ping accepted it calmly, nodded, and said goodbye to Su Tang and the other two for the time being.
Ding Wen was regretting, but just as Su Tang and the other two were about to go up the Soul Selection Platform, Lu Ping suddenly spoke.
"Wait," Lu Ping called out. The examiners below the Soul-Pointing Platform also looked serious. If Lu Ping wanted to attack, although they were not afraid, they did not dare to take it lightly. Lu Ping's speed was indeed a little shocking.
In the end, after Lu Ping stopped the three of them, he walked to the foot of the wall of the Soul Point Platform. He bent over and stood up. There was already a flag in his hand. He lay on the ground for a while. It was deliberately ignored by others and even willingly stepped on when they passed by. In the end, it ended up at the foot of the wall where no one cared about it.
Lu Ping looked up and saw that Ding Wen, who was standing at the edge of the Soul-Pointing Platform, was also looking at him.
As their eyes met, Ding Wen did not hide anything. Even if Lu Ping and the others knew that he was the one who pulled out the flag. He didn't care if he lost it. He did not think that his behavior was inappropriate. He still believed that Zhenfeng College had offended him first.
His gaze was full of provocation. For him, this was very disregarding of his status. He was the renowned chief examiner of the Soul-Pointing Gathering in the Zhili quadrant. And the target of his provocation? He was just a teenager.
However, the youth's gaze only flashed by. Lu Ping only seemed to subconsciously raise his head for a glance. He didn't think much of it, nor did he pay much attention to the provocative gaze. He brought the flag in front of him and brushed away the dirt that had stained it.
"Our school flag has fallen off!" He handed it to Su Tang and the others as he spoke.
Setting aside the fact that someone must have interfered in this matter, the school flag had fallen off the platform. Even if it really was an accident, it was absolutely the result of the Soul-Pointing Gathering's oversight. If Zhenfeng College wanted to go and reason with them, they would be able to stand on their own two feet. The burden of something like a flag couldn't be taken lightly.
However, Lu Ping's attitude was extremely normal, as if he couldn't see the strangeness of the situation, as if this was a common occurrence that happened every day. Pick up the flag, pat it clean, and plant it back on the platform. That was it?
That was what Zhenfeng College had done.
Lu Ping handed the school flag to the three and stayed below the platform. The three of them raised their flags and ascended the Soul-Pointing Platform. The somewhat dirty school flag fluttered in the wind, and their sleeveless, half-finished robes fluttered behind them.
"The Super Four?"
The observation deck of the inner city wasn't just the best place to watch the battles on the Soul-Pointing Platform. If one circled around the observation deck, they would discover that the observation deck had the best view no matter where or what direction it was. The Soul-Pointing Platform was just one of many.
Today, they wanted to watch the battles on the Soul-Pointing Platform. Therefore, those who had the right to ascend the platform were all in this position. But only one person had the right to sit in the center seat.
Draconis, the Lord of Zhiling City, the person with the highest authority in this area. At some point in time, he'd already taken the seat reserved for him and was watching with interest as Su Tang and the others ascended the platform with their flags.
"These are the people from Zhenfeng College at the Gorge Peak?" Draconis asked around. He hadn't come to watch yesterday's battle, but he seemed to know what had happened. As for whether it was in the form of a report or in the form of a joke, the others didn't know. When the guard at the side heard the City Lord's question, he only hurriedly bowed and answered, "Yes."
"Take a look," Draconis said. As for what he meant by "take a look," only he himself knew.
In the blink of an eye, Su Tang and the others had already ascended the Soul-Pointing Platform. The examiner for selecting souls, Jiang Ning, had already come over to guide them. Today was the day the results were released. Everything was not so casual, and was arranged in an orderly manner.
"I'll go and plant the flag first." Su Tang said, but he didn't walk towards the position Jiang Ning pointed him to. Instead, he walked towards the position where their school flag had been planted yesterday.
Jiang Ning couldn't stop him, and could only look at Ding Wen. Ding Wen didn't even turn his head.
At the place where the flag was planted, Su Tang had planted the flag again. Just as she turned to leave, a sudden gust of wind rose. Su Tang's school uniform still fluttered with the natural wind on the platform, but the school flag behind her was swept up with a whoosh and flew far away.
"The wind is really strong today!" Ding Wen still didn't turn his head, and only said in an appreciative tone.
In the end, the school flag that flew out suddenly didn't continue to float away, nor did it fall. Instead, it suddenly turned and floated back, arriving in front of Ding Wen in the blink of an eye.
Float?
This was too polite a choice of words.
This time, it wasn't floating at all, it was an attack. Ding Wen's pupils contracted rapidly. Without any time to waste, he could only hurriedly dodge to the side.
Pa!
The school flag of Zhenfeng College was just a small flag, and the flag was carried by a very ordinary bamboo pole. But at this moment, it had pierced into the Soul Pointing Platform, the hard boulder that had been around for thousands of years. It was at least half a meter deep, and the school flag was firmly fixed there.
How was this an attack? If Ding Wen didn't dodge in time, this strength was simply meant to kill.
Ding Wen's gaze turned sharply. He had already identified the direction of this spiritual force.
Below the Soul Pointing Platform, beside Lu Ping.
"Teacher Chu Min, you're here so early?" Lu Ping said in surprise. The scene that had just happened had attracted everyone's attention. Everyone was dumbfounded, but only he was exchanging greetings with the people around him.
"Yes!" Chu Min said. She raised her head and looked at Ding Wen, who was looking down.
"The wind is so strong!" She said, not knowing who she was talking to.
