Beautiful CEO’s Top Martial Expert

Chapter 1638: Chapter 1636: Selection

Mu Fangtian’s eyes glimmered with a brilliant light, while Mu Ziqi’s expression slightly changed.

Meanwhile, in the Pan Family, the expert informed the Head of Pan Family, Pan Jiahao, about Luo Lao’s assassination.

”Luo Lao has actually been killed!”

Upon hearing of Luo Lao’s murder, Pan Jiahao’s face was filled with immense shock, clearly not expecting such an event to occur.

”However, this presents an opportunity!”

Pan Jiahao’s eyes turned, speaking coolly.

”Luo Lao was a member of the Wind Cloud Kingdom branch of the Alchemist Association. His murder is undoubtedly a slap in the face to them. They won’t let this go easily, and since Luo Lao was killed in the Mu Family, they can’t be absolved from it. We can take advantage of this chance to eliminate the Mu Family.”

Pan Jiahao spoke solemnly, then looked at the expert from the Pan Family: ”Send Luo Lao’s body back, and you should know how to inform them of what happened.”

”Understood, Patriarch!”

The Pan Family expert at the Third Layer of Dao Realm nodded.

The next day quickly arrived, marking the start of Fengyun Academy’s selection of disciples in Maple City. In one of the squares of Maple City,

a large crowd had already gathered here, most of whom were young martial artists, evidently coming to join Fengyun Academy, with at least a hundred people present.

Xiao Yifeng and his companions also arrived here.

Soon, led by the City Lord of Maple City, a group of people wearing Fengyun Academy’s attire arrived here, headed by a man in his forties possessing the Nine Level of Hollow Void Realm strength, clad in Fengyun Academy’s uniform, who was the person sent by Fengyun Academy to oversee the selection in Maple City.

Within this group was a familiar figure, Wang Ding, whose face was clouded and eyes glimmering with a chilling gleam, deterring anyone from approaching.

”Why is that guy here?”

Xiao Yifeng said in surprise upon seeing Wang Ding.

Standing beside Xiao Yifeng, Mu Ziqi looked at Wang Ding and said, ”He’s the young master of the Wang Family, one of the Five Great Families in Wind Cloud City, also an elite disciple of Fengyun Academy. He came to Maple City with the Fengyun Academy selection. I heard that yesterday you provoked him, even injured him, so he might give you trouble during the selection!”

”Hmph, if he dares to cause trouble, I’ll show him what I’m capable of!”

Li Zitong snorted in indignation.

”Everyone, today marks the beginning of the new student recruitment for Fengyun Academy. The first round of the selection will take place in the Twelve Main Cities of Wind Cloud Kingdom, and only ten from each city will be chosen, so I hope you all cherish this opportunity.”

The forty-something man addressed the crowd.

”As the number one academy of Wind Cloud Kingdom, Fengyun Academy naturally sets a high threshold for selecting students. The first requirement is that those over twenty-five years of age, or those whose strength is below Gathering Elixir Realm, will be eliminated. All participants should head over for age and strength verification.”

The man pointed to the examination area, and those registered for Fengyun Academy selection began their assessments, with those not meeting the threshold voluntarily withdrawing, while some hoped to pass through deception, which proved impossible.

Fengyun Academy possessed a Bone Age Stone that could determine a person’s age by bone age, alongside tools for assessing whether one had reached the Gathering Elixir Realm and was under twenty-five years old.

”Big brother, are you and Tianxiao going to participate in this Fengyun Academy selection?”

Li Zitong asked Xiao Yifeng.

”That’s right!”

Xiao Yifeng nodded.

”Then I want to participate too!”

Li Zitong said directly.

”You want to join too? There’s no need, your strength is already formidable, joining Fengyun Academy isn’t necessary!”

Xiao Yifeng said in surprise.

”If you all join Fengyun Academy, leaving me alone would be boring and dull, so I might as well join for fun since I’m free!”

Li Zitong pouted.

Soon it was Xiao Yifeng and the others’ turn, and they all naturally passed the first round of assessment, especially when Li Zitong accidentally revealed his formidable Hollow Void Realm strength during the test.

The Fengyun Academy examiners were taken aback, never expecting someone of Hollow Void Realm strength to participate. Moreover, Li Zitong appeared to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, showcasing extraordinary talent.

The selection overseer, the man in his forties, was drawn to Li Zitong, and upon learning of his Hollow Void Realm strength, was astounded, eyes full of amazement.

”To possess Hollow Void Realm strength at such a young age, this youngster is unquestionably a true martial arts genius!”

The overseer looked at Li Zitong with eyes glistening with excitement.

”It’s him!”

Wang Ding’s gaze also fell on Xiao Yifeng, eyes radiating a chilling glint.

Wang Ding whispered a few words in the overseer’s ear, who then glanced at Xiao Yifeng.

”Don’t worry, Young Master Wang, I know what to do!”

The overseer nodded and said, ”But that boy and girl have exceptional talent and strength, I can’t touch them. If they’re selected, I’ll surely receive commendation from the Vice-Dean!”

”I just want that guy dead!”

Wang Ding’s eyes gleamed with terrifying killing intent as they bore into Xiao Yifeng, fists clenched tightly.

Xiao Yifeng sensed Wang Ding’s murderous gaze but remained disdainful.

After spending over half a day, the first round of selection finally concluded. Out of the hundreds present, only slightly over thirty met the criteria.

These thirty-plus individuals would still need further selection to potentially secure one of Maple City’s ten slots.

In the selection, both Pan Long and Mu Zifeng appeared, also making it through the first round. However, when they saw Xiao Yifeng, their eyes flickered with coldness, filled with intense hatred and killing intent.

The selection finally ended after nearly an entire day.

”Thank you all for attending today’s recruitment selection for Fengyun Academy’s new students. The selection in Maple City has concluded today, and tomorrow, the final ten selected names will be announced, offering a chance to compete for a place in Fengyun Academy.”

The selection overseer said, and the crowd soon dispersed.

”Brother Xiao, do you think I’ll be selected?”

Ye Ziyan looked at Xiao Yifeng with a face of worry and nervousness.
