The Zephyr Academy shot to fame on the first day of the Spirit Battle Tournament! It immediately attracted everyone's attention. The academy that had just fallen from the clouds and was looked down upon by everyone had suddenly slapped everyone in the face on the first day of the Spirit Battle Tournament!
The first round of the tournament had not ended and Hua Yao and the others were free on the second day. Before the second round of the tournament began, they were free to do whatever they wanted.
On the second day, Jun Xie was supposed to participate in the tournament but something unexpected happened in the first battle district.
Under normal circumstances, the first round of matches would end within two days. But a different situation had cropped up in the first battle district. It was not known whether it was a problem with the drawing of lots, but many of their opponents were people of similar levels of power. That had caused what could have been a short exchange of blows to become a long and drawn-out stalemate. On the first day, there were only twelve groups of people who had completed their matches. That had caused Jun Wu Xie, whose number was near the back, to basically not have much of a chance to take the field on the second day.
Since it was not her turn, Jun Xie had no interest in going out. She had intended to continue staying within the Immortals' Loft to cultivate her elixirs but unexpectedly, Lei Chen had once again extended an invitation to the Zephyr Academy. And this time, it was not for a meal, but for a lake tour.
After what had happened last night, Lei Chen had finally felt Jun Xie's "goodwill" and when he saw that the people from the Zephyr Academy were being very polite to him, he decided to continue to forge closer ties with them, determined to take down his target before the other powers interfered.
Jun Xie naturally did not reject Lei Chen's "delivery" and went to meet Qiao Chu and the others.
Very soon, news spread throughout the Imperial Capital. The youths from the Zephyr Academy who had just risen to prominence had been recruited by the Crown Prince, Lei Chen.
When the news spread out, it immediately caused all the various powers who had been eyeing the Zephyr Academy to fall silent. No matter how powerful they were, they would not dare to stand on the Yan Country's soil and fight with the Yan Country's Crown Prince for their disciples!
In an instant, the people surrounding the Immortals' Loft dispersed and Fan Jin who had been exhausted from dealing with the situation was finally able to catch his breath.
When Jun Xie and the others returned from the lake, there was no longer anyone squatting in front of the Immortals' Loft.
"Looks like it worked out pretty well." Fan Zhuo was all smiles as he looked at the Immortals' Loft which had returned to its empty state. They had just felt that these people were troublesome to deal with and Lei Chen had delivered himself to their doorstep to help them solve their problems. He was truly 'considerate'.
"Pfft … I'm a little curious. If Lei Chen knew that the reason why Little Xie was finally willing to talk to him was because she didn't want to disturb those people, and also because she wanted to get the map from him, how would he react?" When Qiao Chu thought back to the lake today, the care Lei Chen had shown Jun Xie and the kind smile he had shown them, he found it hilarious.
Even for someone as insensitive as him, he could still see that Lei Chen had only been interested in Jun Xie before and the reason why he was now "looking at them in a different light" was entirely because of their performance in the Spirit Battle Tournament.
Lei Chen's actions were not very obvious. If it had been anyone else, perhaps they would have long ago been overjoyed by the Crown Prince's favor, but among the few of them, not a single one of them took Lei Chen's title as the Crown Prince seriously.
Just when Lei Chen thought that he had everything under control, he did not know that he had fallen completely into Jun Xie's trap.
Qiao Chu felt that the feeling of watching others being kept in the dark and being so pleased with themselves was really a wonderful feeling!
