"Sigh."
Subsequently, Ouyang Yuan sighed softly and said, "Wei Ze is an elder of the Sacred Institute. His position in the Sacred Institute is second only to Dongfang Zhi. I wonder what his intentions are by letting Gu Tai spar with you."
Actually, Ouyang Yuan had also guessed a possibility. Wei Ze wanted Ning Yue to become a core disciple.
But very soon, he rejected this possibility.
Because Ning Yue had just fought with Yu Shan, he had expended too much of his Essence Qi and was not in peak condition.
Letting Ning Yue fight with Gu Tai, who was ranked second on the Sacred Institute's Combat Roll, definitely did not have good intentions!
"Ning Yue, be careful. If you can avoid fighting with Gu Tai, try not to." Ouyang Yuan felt the need to remind Ning Yue and said in a low voice, "Gu Tai is very strong. Yu Shan could not even last three moves against him."
"In this world, before one's strength grows, some things are beyond one's control," Ning Yue said in a deep voice after taking a deep breath.
Swoosh!
As soon as Ning Yue finished speaking, Gu Tai had already landed in front of him.
"Ning Yue, I have no other choice in this battle."
Standing in front of Ning Yue, Gu Tai said, "You are not in peak condition now. I will give you an hour. We will fight after an hour."
"Humph! Gu Tai, I want you to attack Ning Yue now! "Wei Ze snorted coldly." Are you not even going to listen to me?! "
"Wei Ze, according to the rules, Ning Yue is already a martial artist of the Sacred Institute."
Before Gu Tai could reply, Dongfang Zhi said in a deep voice, "Furthermore, I announce that Ning Yue is a core disciple of the Sacred Institute!"
Swoosh!
Dongfang Zhi's words caused a huge uproar in the entire Dan Wu Plaza.
Core disciple?
Dongfang Zhi actually selected Ning Yue to be a core disciple?
One had to know that the Sacred Academy's core disciple selection process was extremely strict. Even the top ranked cultivator on the Sacred Academy's Combat Rankings had failed to become a core disciple, let alone Ning Yue.
Ning Yue had only defeated Xu Shan, and Xu Shan was only ranked third on the Sacred Institute Combat Rankings!
"Although Ning Yue defeated Yu Shan, it is not enough for him to become a core disciple."
"Could it be that there's something shady going on?"
"It's hard to say. Maybe Ning Yue has a good relationship with President Dongfang …"
"…"
The whispers from the surroundings did not affect Dongfang Zhi at all.
He continued, "I don't think I need to tell you about the treatment a core disciple enjoys in the Sacred Academy, right?"
"Damn it!" Wei Ze cursed inwardly as he clenched his fists gloomily.
The treatment a core disciple enjoyed was extremely abnormal. The most important thing was that they didn't have to accept any challenges from cultivators that weren't core disciples of the Sacred Institute!
In other words, unless Ning Yue was willing, no martial artist on the Sacred Institute Combat List could be the first to attack him.
Of course, this treatment was only effective in Danwu College.
Once they left Danwu College, who would care about this treaty?
So far, there were two core disciples in the Sacred Institute.
One was Zhang Tianwen, and the other was Ning Yue!
Zhang Tianwen was in closed-door training, and no one knew when he would come out. It seemed that no one could attack Ning Yue here.
"Elder Wei, since Ning Yue has become a core disciple, I can't fight with him today. Goodbye." At this moment, Gu Tai cupped his fists at Wei Ze and immediately flew out of the fighting ring.
"Wait."
However, before Gu Tai could move, Dongfang Zhi's voice rang in his ears, "Yu Shan is seriously injured. You will replace him in the next assessment."
"Me?" Gu Tai glanced at the remaining Real Martial Realm martial artists and asked in surprise, "President, are you sure you want me to fight with them?"
It was no wonder that Gu Tai was a little surprised. He was very strong, and if he used his full strength, none of the remaining True Martial Realm martial artists could last more than twenty moves against him.
"Three moves. As long as I can last three moves against you, it means that I can pass the assessment and enter the Sacred Institute," Dongfang Zhi said indifferently.
Dongfang Zhi's words did not make Ouyang Yuan and the rest excited, but grave expressions appeared on their faces instead.
That was because enduring three moves against Gu Tai was more difficult than enduring twenty moves against Yu Shan.
"Dongfang Zhi, I don't agree to you letting Ning Yue become a core disciple!" Wei Ze said coldly.
"Elder Wei, is Ning Yue's strength and talent not enough to become a core disciple?" Dongfang Zhi asked, "Furthermore, someone said that as long as Ning Yue can last thirty moves against Yu Shan, he will give the core disciple spot to him."
"Ning Yue defeated Yu Shan in twenty moves. Did someone forget what he said? Did he forget his promise? "
"Dongfang … Hiss!" Clenching his fists, Wei Ze's reprimanding words were just about to come out of his mouth when he suddenly stopped and sucked in a breath of cold air.
The corner of Wei Ze's mouth curled up into a strange smile. He laughed sinisterly and said, "I agree to let Ning Yue become a core disciple."
Hearing Wei Ze's words, Dongfang Zhi frowned. He felt that something was wrong.
Although he was a little puzzled, Dongfang Zhi did not say much. Instead, he said to Fang Yuanzi, "The assessment will continue. As long as you can last three moves against Gu Tai, you can enter the Sacred Institute."
"Dongfang Zhi, the core disciples of the Sacred Institute will represent the Sacred Institute in the Hundred Academy Tournament. You should let us see Ning Yue's strongest strength," Wei Ze said with a faint smile.
"What do you mean?" Dongfang Zhi frowned.
"Haha, nothing. I just feel that we should do it according to the rules." With a faint smile, Wei Ze barked towards the sky, "Come out. It's time for everyone to witness your strength."
Buzz!
In the next moment, space surged and a martial artist leaped out of the void.
"Oh no!"
The moment this martial artist leaped out, Ning Yue realized that something was wrong. This was because this martial artist was speeding towards him!
This martial artist was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of him and punched him in the face.
"Damn it!"
Feeling the violent wind in front of him, Ning Yue's expression changed drastically.
This sudden change was clearly beyond his expectations.
He did not expect this martial artist to be so bold as to attack him in front of so many higher-ups of the Sacred Institute!
Without much time to think, Ning Yue raised his right hand. Suddenly, an extremely violent Yuan Qi appeared on the surface of his palm.
Then, his fist carried a piercingly cold murderous intent as he punched forward!
Bang!
In the next moment, the sound of two fists colliding rang out crisply in the arena.
After the blow, Ning Yue immediately retreated. He stared at the martial artist in front of him and shouted, "Who are you!"
Although they had only exchanged blows in a hurry, Ning Yue could basically conclude that his opponent was extremely powerful. He was not just a little bit stronger than Xu Shan.
At the very least, the density of his opponent's Yuan Qi was not inferior to his!
