He's in trouble!
By the time Ye Zichen returned to Anti-Upheaval's residence, it was already close to dawn.
Xue Mo had told him that the student society ranking competition would be held in the afternoon. Once the groups were confirmed, they'd proceed to the ranking competition.
It was fair to say that the ranking competition was imminent.
The ranking competition wasn't just a matter of ranking; it was also a matter of face.
Although Anti-Upheaval was in dire straits, it was still the leader of the five great student societies. If they could get into the top five, that would be fine. If they dropped out of the top five, things would look bad for them.
As a result, Ye Zichen's Devil Dharma Body took shape. Compared to the other student societies, his sudden increase in cultivation was like giving coal to Anti-Upheaval in a snowstorm.
It wasn't just for the sake of the student society's face; it was also for his own. Ye Zichen sat in his room for the entire night, condensing his divine power so that he could be in peak condition, ready to face the upcoming fierce competition.
"Hah ….."
Ye Zichen exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, then opened his eyes. He stretched, then headed to Xue Mo's residence.
The ranking competition would be held in the afternoon. Ye Zichen still didn't know who was participating, so he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get to know them.
However, when he went to Xue Mo's residence, he didn't see her anywhere.
He looked around the club but didn't see anyone. Instead, he saw the members of the club huddled together not far away. They were all talking at once, and he didn't know what they were talking about.
"What are you all doing here?"
Ye Zichen walked up to them and asked. They hurriedly smiled and greeted him.
"Platoon Leader Ye."
"You're all pretty free today, aren't you? Why are you huddled together and arguing? You're all red in the face."
Ye Zichen looked them up and down, then saw that some of their faces were red, and their necks were bulging. He couldn't help but tease them.
"Platoon Leader Ye, you don't know yet, do you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a few of the club members around him said mysteriously.
"Something happened in Skyspan City."
Something happened in Skyspan City?
The safest city on the Northern Divine Mountain was Skyspan City!
The Skyspan Trading Company was stationed there, and they had a close relationship with the Sea of Innocence.
Ye Zichen's brows instantly darkened. "Skyspan City is backed by the Sea of Innocence. Who would dare provoke them?"
"I know, right?" The club member slapped his thigh and said, "But something did happen in our Skyspan City. It even alarmed the City Lord's Mansion's Qin Weibing."
"What's going on?" Ye Zichen asked solemnly.
"According to reliable sources, a hundred miles north of Heaven Connect City seems to have suffered a violent attack. Almost everything within a radius of ten miles has been destroyed, and the entire mountain range has been cut in half. The City Lord's Mansion and our academy have already sent people to investigate. "
"…"
I'm in trouble!
This was a little familiar.
The place they were talking about was most likely the place Ye Zichen went to last night.
However, it wasn't as crazy as the club member made it out to be. At that time, he had only done a simple test. Although he couldn't help but throw a few punches afterward, when he thought about it carefully …
Well, maybe that kind of situation could really be counted as ruins.
Ye Zichen felt rather helpless. He'd just wanted to test out his Devil Dharma Body's might, but he'd alarmed the City Lord's Mansion.
"Just now, we were trying to figure out who the invaders were. Didn't you and Platoon Leader Xue run into demons recently? I told them it was probably the demons, but they refused to believe me! Platoon Leader Ye, who do you think caused the destruction? "
The club members looked over at him. Ye Zichen couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"How can I say for sure? I've never investigated the scene. Alright, you guys, stop talking about this. Regardless of whether or not it was a demon invasion, raising your cultivation is the most important thing. Otherwise, if the demons really did invade, do you think you can fight them with just the few of you? Don't just stand there. Hurry up and cultivate! "
"We're on our way." The club members chuckled, but before they left, they said worriedly, "Platoon Leader Ye, do you think we'll be able to hold our own in the ranking competition?"
"Of course we can. You have to have faith in us." Ye Zichen chuckled.
"It seems Platoon Leader Ye is confident!" The club members' eyes lit up.
"What's with all the nonsense? Hurry up and cultivate!"
"Alright!"
The club members chuckled and ran off. Although they couldn't participate in the ranking competition these past few days, they'd been preoccupied with it. They were all members of Anti-Upheaval, and it could be said that they were bound together for good or ill.
Now that Ye Zichen said that, they could finally put down their worries.
Judging from the direction they ran off in, they were most likely going to tell the other club members about it.
Ye Zichen didn't stop them. Over the past few days, quite a few of the club members had been worried about the ranking competition. Giving them some hope wasn't a bad idea.
It was just that his demonic dharma body experiment had alarmed the city lord's manor.
Ye Zichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Should I tell the city lord that I did it?"
Ye Zichen stood in place, hesitating despite himself. After a moment's thought, he dismissed the idea. If he took the initiative to say it, the city lord's manor would inevitably question him. That would be even more troublesome.
At that moment, he received a message from the transmission slip in his spatial ring.
The only people who could contact him through a transmission slip naturally weren't the members of the group.
He took out the slip, probed it with his divine sense, and heard Xue Mo's transmission through divine sense.
"Someone from the society said you were looking for me. I'm in the main hall. Come on over."
When Ye Zichen arrived at the main hall, quite a few people were already standing there. Ye Zichen recognized all of them: Luo Zi, Li Hu, and Chen Guangfa.
All of Anti-Upheaval's administrators were present, but there seemed to be someone else standing in the middle of them.
It couldn't be Xue Mo!
Although Xue Mo was a woman, she wasn't short. She couldn't compare to Li Hu or Chen Guangfa, but she was on par with Luo Zi. However, Luo Zi couldn't even see the person standing in the middle of them.
Through the gaps between them, Ye Zichen could vaguely make out a pair of ….
Pink shoes!
"What are you standing around for? Let's go in."
Just as Ye Zichen was trying to figure out who that person was, Xue Mo walked past him with a plate of freshly washed fruits.
"Wait a moment." Ye Zichen pulled her back and asked, "Who's inside?"
"They're helpers I invited for the ranking competition." Xue Mo smiled mysteriously. "Come with me. I'll introduce you two to each other."
Xue Mo followed her into the main hall and set the plate of fruits on the table. Then, a doting look flashed through her eyes as she walked in between Li Hu and the others.
"Society Head."
Xue Mo nodded at them, then narrowed her eyes and smiled.
"Beibei, I'll introduce you to a good friend of mine."
As she spoke, Xue Mo walked over, holding the hand of a young girl who looked to be in her teens. Ye Zichen's expression froze, but the girl merely smiled and cocked her head.
