Within the grandiose hall, Duanmu Jie was seated on a rosewood chair, his expression extrely somber.
He had been in closed cultivation at Dragon Lion Peak for quite so ti, only erging recently.
Yet the mont he erged, he received the news that the black-robed elder, Elder Ge, had been killed, which imdiately enraged him.
Elder Ge's cultivation had already stepped into the Sixth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm, making it as easy to crush the wastrel Ye Chen as it would be to squash an ant.
But now, not only did he fail to kill Ye Chen, he himself perished within the Canglan Mountain Range.
This completely exceeded Duanmu Jie's expectations.
"Senior Brother Duanmu, what's the urgent matter you wanted to discuss with ?" At that mont, a graceful figure suddenly appeared in the hall, smiling faintly at Duanmu Jie.
This figure was none other than Ye Lin'Er.
"Junior Sister Lin'Er, Elder Ge has been killed," Duanmu Jie stated angrily.
"What? How did he die?" Ye Lin'Er's delicate body trembled violently, and her face turned extrely pale.
"It was probably that old bastard Ye Ming who killed him. Not only did his Dantian not shatter, but his cultivation even broke through to the Ninth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm, and even Luo Tong is dead by his hand," Duanmu Jie said with a grim expression, his eyes flashing with terrifying light.
"So that ans that wastrel Ye Chen isn't dead either?" Ye Lin'Er's face was instantly covered in a thick frost, her voice icy cold, sending shivers down one's spine.
Originally, she thought that by having Duanmu Jie send Elder Ge to assassinate Ye Chen, there would definitely be no unexpected occurrences.
After all, Ye Chen's adoptive father, Ye Ming, had Dantian damage so severe he was similar to a cripple, utterly unable to protect Ye Chen.
But unexpectedly, Ye Ming's Dantian not only inexplicably healed, but even his cultivation broke through to the Ninth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm.
To Ye Lin'Er, this was like a bolt from the blue.
She was so eager to eliminate Ye Chen! Otherwise, she would always feel uneasy.
But why could she never achieve her desired outco?
"Junior Sister Lin'Er, there's no need to worry. Even if that wastrel is still alive, so what? I have plenty of ways to kill him. In just two more days, it's the new student registration day at the Celestial Fla Academy. If Ye Chen isn't dead, he will definitely enter Celestial Fla Academy to participate in the new student competition. By then, I will make him regret living in this world," Duanmu Jie said with a sinister smile, his mouth curled into a cruel grin.
The Duanmu Family, being one of the six powerful families in the Royal Capital, had connections that spread throughout the Celestial Fla Dynasty.
Even among the new students recruited by Celestial Fla Academy, many were from the Duanmu Family.
Therefore, having soone kill Ye Chen during the new student competition wouldn't be difficult.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Senior Brother Duanmu. Letting this wastrel live on will only tarnish my reputation," Ye Lin'Er said coldly, with a terrifying light deep in her eyes.
"Rest assured, leave everything to ." Duanmu Jie patted his chest, full of confidence.
Ti flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
"So this is the Royal Capital of the Celestial Fla Dynasty? It's truly prosperous," Ye Chen marveled as he walked down an incredibly spacious street.
After days of long travel, he finally reached the Royal Capital of the Celestial Fla Dynasty: Celestial Fire City.
Celestial Fire City was an enormous city, spanning thousands of miles, dozens of tis larger than Kunzhou Prefecture City.
The city was exceptionally prosperous, with shops everywhere, palaces in clusters, streets crowded with people and carriages, a scene of a thriving era.
"Although our Ye Family is one of the three major families in Kunzhou Prefecture, in the Royal Capital, we are rely a second-rate family. In this place, only a Qi Dao Master of the Gang Qi Realm can have so status, while cultivators of the True Qi Realm are utterly worthless," Ye Ming sighed next to Ye Chen, his brows full of deep emotion.
No matter how strong the Ye Family was, it could only dominate Kunzhou Prefecture.
Compared to the true aristocratic families in the Royal Capital, the Ye Family was far inferior.
If those families wished, they could easily annihilate the Ye Family by sending out a single Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm expert.
Due to the imnse size of Celestial Fire City, it took Ye Chen and his companions two hours to reach Celestial Fla Academy.
Celestial Fla Academy, located on the eastern side of Celestial Fire City, spanned several hundred miles.
Not only did the Academy boast many grandiose palaces, but also huge towering peaks, an environnt so beautiful it resembled an earthly paradise.
Early in the morning, a large number of new students had already gathered outside the Celestial Fla Academy for registration.
Their numbers were in the thousands, coming from various prefecture cities of the Celestial Fla Dynasty.
Ye Chen even saw a few extrely familiar faces among them.
"That's Ye Chen, he's co to register at the Celestial Fla Academy too," several teenagers from the Xiao Family said, their expressions extrely unpleasant.
Especially upon seeing Ye Ming beside Ye Chen, their bodies trembled fiercely, their eyes full of deep apprehension.
Now, the news of Ye Ming killing Luo Tong and the Grand Elder of the Luo Family had already spread throughout Kunzhou Prefecture.
Almost everyone knows that Ye Ming's cultivation has broken through to the Ninth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm.
If he wished, he could easily crush any strong opponent from the Xiao Family at any mont, even the Patriarch Xiao Yang would be no match for him.
Thus, the young ones of the Xiao Family naturally feel quite apprehensive towards Ye Ming.
"Damn! It's that bastard Ye Chen." At this mont, beside several young mbers of the Xiao Family, stood an absolutely beautiful young girl. When she saw Ye Chen, her eyes instantly revealed intense anger and humiliation.
This girl was none other than Xiao Lan.
Since last ti, when she was defeated by Ye Chen in the entrance examination, she has always felt extrely stifled.
Even now, she is sowhat unable to accept that she lost to a waste who couldn't even awaken his bloodline.
However, she believes that as long as she is given so ti, she will definitely be able to defeat Ye Chen and wash away the previous disgrace.
After all, Ye Chen couldn't even awaken his bloodline, his future is destined to be very limited.
While she has awakened a Second Grade Yellow Level bloodline, as long as she continues to grow successfully, she even hopes to beco a Qi Dao Grandmaster in the Celestial Spirit Realm, potential that Ye Chen simply cannot compare with.
"It's Xiao Lan." Xiao Hui, beside Ye Chen, couldn't help but look at Xiao Lan, but her expression appeared very indifferent.
She would never forget the things the Xiao Family had done to her before.
Now, she has completely severed all ties with the Xiao Family.
Anyone and anything related to the Xiao Family no longer has anything to do with her.
"Foster father, foster mother, please wait outside for . After the freshman competition, I will co to receive you." Ye Chen said with a slight smile.
According to the rules of the Celestial Fla Academy, freshn can only bring their family or followers into the academy after participating in the competition and choosing a faction.
Moreover, there are extrely strict limits on numbers.
For example, ordinary Outer Disciple can bring at most one family mber or follower into the Celestial Fla Academy.
Inner Sect students can bring two.
As for seed student candidates, they can bring in four family mbers or followers into the Celestial Fla Academy.
However, compared to seed students, their treatnt is far inferior.
Each seed student can at least bring ten family mbers or followers into the Celestial Fla Academy.
After all, managing a mountain peak naturally requires a large number of people.
"This ti, in the freshman competition, I must take first place and beco a seed student candidate. Only then can I bring both my foster father and foster mother into the Celestial Fla Academy." Ye Chen clenched his fist, thinking to himself.
The Royal Capital is a mixed place, full of powerful individuals.
Although Ye Ming's strength is quite formidable, within the Royal Capital, it still falls short.
Thus, only by bringing Ye Ming and Xiao Hui into the Celestial Fla Academy can Ye Chen feel at ease.
"Chen'er, don't worry. We will take care of ourselves. On the other hand, in the freshman competition, you must be careful. After all, the students participating in this freshman competition are not comparable to the young generation from Kunzhou Prefecture." Xiao Hui couldn't help but remind Ye Chen.
The students participating in this freshman competition include talents from all 108 prefectures of the Celestial Fla Dynasty as well as the younger generation from the Royal Capital.
Among them, so might have awakened a Profound Bloodline.
Such individuals are not to be judged by regular standards and can even defeat a Qi Dao Master in the Gang Qi Realm across ranks.
Therefore, even though Ye Chen's strength is already very strong now, he absolutely cannot afford to be careless.
"Haha, madam, don't worry unnecessarily. Chen'er will definitely take first place this ti." Ye Ming chuckled and said, brimming with confidence in Ye Chen's abilities.
Only he knows how terrifying Ye Chen's strength is currently.
Even a strong opponent like the black-robed elder, who was at the Sixth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm, died at Ye Chen's hands. Among the young generation, how many can defeat Ye Chen?
If there were, they would have already been designated as seed students by the Celestial Fla Academy, without needing to participate in the freshman competition.
So in all likelihood, the first place in this freshman competition will undeniably be Ye Chen's.
"Keep a low profile; stay humble." Ye Chen grinned and said.
His strength now has increased even more compared to when he fought the black-robed elder.
If he doesn't keep a low profile, he will definitely be regarded as a freak by others.
Thus, unless absolutely necessary, he will never casually use various trump cards; otherwise, he will attract the attention of so powerful individuals.
