The threshold to enter Hokuang Reiwon was not low. Students who were able to enter this top-notch academy were all outstanding existences in their respective regions. However, this kind of excellence was obviously diluted after arriving at Hokuang Reiwon. There were simply too many outstanding people here. In order to stand out in such a place where geniuses and monstrous geniuses gathered, not only did one need talent, one also needed perseverance, willpower, hard work, and so on.
Therefore, if anyone could become dazzling in this place that was filled with competition, then they would possess the qualifications to walk the path of a true expert. Perhaps, in the future, their names would resound throughout the Great Thousand World and be remembered by the world.
However, that step was still too far away for Mu Chen and the others who had just entered Hokuang Reiwon to cultivate. Right now, they needed to welcome the first real competition after entering Hokuang Reiwon.
That was the so-called Freshmen Competition.
The Freshmen Competition could be considered as the first real competition that countless freshmen had to face after entering Hokuang Reiwon. In this competition, outstanding youths from all over would begin to stand out and reveal their brilliance. Moreover, they would begin to emit light bit by bit and finally become dazzling in Hokuang Reiwon.
Regarding the Freshmen Competition, even Hokuang Reiwon attached great importance to it. Even the seniors of Hokuang Reiwon would come after hearing the news. They also wanted to see how powerful this batch of freshmen would be and whether there would be anyone who could directly pose a threat to them.
Because from past experience, the strength of the freshmen who could stand out in the Freshmen Competition would increase by leaps and bounds after a period of training. They might even surpass the seniors and become the elites of Hokuang Reiwon.
They occupied a place among the elites of Hokuang Reiwon.
Moreover, apart from a few exceptions, almost all of the ferocious people who were ranked at the top of the Heavenly List were exceptionally dazzling during their previous Freshmen Competition.
Therefore, they also wanted to take this opportunity to see what kind of fellows would become the ferocious people of Hokuang Reiwon in the future.
And because of these reasons, when the freshmen assembly was about to begin …
News of this had already begun to spread within Hokuang Reiwon. Many seniors began to pay attention to this batch of new students.
Under this kind of attention, information about those particularly outstanding freshmen.
Many of the older students knew about them. Yang Hong, Mu Kui, Bing Qing, Luo Li, and the other top students had obviously attracted the most attention.
Of course, the one that attracted the most attention was …
Without a doubt, it was still Luo Li and Bing Qing. After all, no matter where it was, a beautiful girl would always attract attention easily.
Whether it was her appearance or temperament, Luo Li was absolutely outstanding.
Even at such a young age, her exquisite little face was already showing signs of becoming a source of calamity. This was truly unimaginable.
When a girl truly understood how to exude that amazing charm, how could she turn the world upside down?
Perhaps a femme fatale was nothing more than that.
Bing Qing's appearance might not be as outstanding as Luo Li's, but her temperament was also quite unique. Her long, ice-blue hair and slender figure were also exceptionally outstanding.
As for the four of them, they were obviously the ones that the seniors paid the most attention to. This was because the freshmen who were able to reach the Heavenly Fusion Stage when they entered Hokuang Reiwon were definitely not simple characters.
These people were destined to become powerful figures within Hokuang Reiwon.
Aside from the four of them, Mu Chen's name also appeared in the mouths of some of the seniors. Most of these people could be attributed to the battle between him and Mo Lun.
Although Mo Lun was not considered outstanding among the seniors of Hokuang Reiwon, he still possessed the strength of a Heavenly Fusion Stage. Many people were surprised that Mu Chen was able to defeat him with the strength of a Spirit Stage.
Obviously, many people viewed him as a dark horse in this year's Freshmen Competition. However, whether this dark horse would be able to shake the true top freshmen like Yang Hong and the others would depend on the upcoming Freshmen Competition.
This year's Freshmen Competition was going to be quite interesting.
As the Freshmen Competition approached, all the freshmen were doing their best to improve their strength. They were using all means possible to make themselves slightly stronger before the Freshmen Competition began.
An urgent cultivation atmosphere enveloped the entire freshmen area. Even the freshmen area that Mu Chen and the others were in was filled with a dense cultivation atmosphere. Figures could be seen sitting cross-legged and cultivating, or sparring with each other, all over the place.
In the center of the freshmen area, there was a clear lake. At this moment, the lake was actually surrounded by figures. Each of them had their eyes wide open as they curiously stared at the lake.
On the sparkling surface of the lake, two figures were standing on the water. One of them had a slender body and a handsome face that had a gentle glow under the faint sunlight.
Opposite him was a slender girl in a black dress. Her soft long hair cascaded down like a waterfall. Her glass-like eyes were even more penetrating and attractive than the clear lake.
These two people were naturally Mu Chen and Luo Li. From the looks of it, they were obviously going to spar with each other. Facing the upcoming Freshmen Competition, they also needed to quickly increase their strength, and sparring was a good way to do so.
Around the lake, many freshmen curiously looked around. On their chests, there was a similar badge. On the badge, there was a picture of a girl in a black dress. Beside the girl, there was a slender boy with a faint smile on his face. He looked handsome and bright.
This was the badge of the Goddess Luo Association. Obviously, everyone here was a member of the Goddess Luo Association.
"I bet that Big Sister Luo Li will win."
"Big Brother Mu is not a simple person. It won't be easy for him to win."
"You guys haven't seen Big Sister Luo Li's true strength. I feel that in this year's Freshmen Competition, Big Sister Luo Li will very likely become the number one among the freshmen."
“”
Whispers rang out around the lake. Many people's eyes were filled with anticipation. The two people in front of them were practically the most outstanding among the freshmen. Their spar.
It would definitely be very exciting.
Bang!
As the crowd stared at the lake and whispered, on the surface of the lake, Mu Chen's eyes suddenly narrowed. A circle of ripples suddenly spread out from under his feet. At this moment, his figure turned into a streak of light. With an astonishing speed, he left a trail of water behind him as he charged towards Luo Li like a bolt of lightning.
"Swish!"
Before he arrived.
Mu Chen's fingers had already turned into a golden light. A sharp golden light that was dozens of feet long abruptly shot out from his fingertips. In a breath's time, it had already arrived in front of Luo Li.
"Bang!"
However.
Just when the sharp golden light was about to hit Luo Li, the corner of the latter's mouth also slightly rose. The water in front of her suddenly exploded. A water pillar soared into the sky. Under the rapid flow of Spiritual Energy, the water was like a water shield that blocked in front of her.
Puchi.
The golden light shot into the water curtain.
It expanded and extended crazily. However, just when it was about to break through the water curtain, it completely froze and the golden light dissipated.
The Spiritual Energy contained within it was forcefully crushed by the water curtain.
Swish!
Just as the sharp golden light was blocked, a figure had already arrived in a phantom like manner.
Five fingers clenched into a fist without the slightest hesitation.
With a punch, four Limitless Death Seals condensed and appeared.
Boom!
The four Limitless Death Seals charged into the water screen in an extremely overbearing manner. The incomparably violent and overbearing Spiritual Energy instantly shattered the water screen, causing water vapor to splatter. The overbearing Spiritual Energy impact that overlapped with each other swept towards Luo Li, who was behind the water screen.
Luo Li looked at the water curtain being torn apart and the violent black Spiritual Energy impact. Extending her slender jade-like hand, she lightly twirled it. At this moment, an azure Spiritual Energy gushed out like a tide. Under her jade-like hand, it quickly transformed into an azure Spiritual Energy vortex.
The vortex rotated at a high speed. The Spiritual Energy of the surrounding heaven and earth surged over, causing the azure water vortex to become even more sparkling and translucent. A peculiar fluctuation was emitted from it.
Boom!
The impact formed by the four overbearing Limitless Death Seals fiercely bombarded against the azure water vortex. The Spiritual Energy vortex crazily rotated and actually dissolved the impact from the Limitless Death Seals.
The Limitless Death Seals were overbearing, but the azure Spiritual Energy vortex was incomparably gentle. It was as soft as a finger. Although it seemed weak, it twirled around, causing the overbearing impact formed by the Limitless Death Seals to be completely dissolved.
It was a brilliant method of using softness to overcome hardness.
Mu Chen looked at the increasingly weak black Spiritual Energy within the azure water vortex. A smear of astonishment flashed through his eyes. Luo Li's methods were rather bizarre.
Swish!
Just when Mu Chen was astonished by this, the azure Spiritual Energy vortex suddenly paused. Abnormally vigorous Spiritual Energy swept out. The originally gentle vortex seemed to reveal an extraordinary might at this moment. Mixed with the roar of a sea beast, it heavily charged towards Mu Chen's chest.
Mu Chen's eyes flashed. Black light surged on the surface of his body, faintly transforming into the shape of a black glowing pagoda.
Clang!
Heavy Spiritual Energy impacts smashed against the black glowing pagoda, causing a clear sound to erupt. At the same time, ripples appeared on the surface of the glowing pagoda.
Bang!
The surface of the lake where the two of them were located exploded. Water pillars filled the sky as they soared into the sky. In the next moment, they transformed into a boundless rain that poured down, causing their vision to turn blurry.
Chi!
As the raindrops streaked past their eyes, Luo Li's alluring figure suddenly moved. With a clench of her jade-like hand, the black longsword slipped into her hand. In a flash, her alluring figure shot out. The black longsword with its hilt pierced through the curtain of rain. At lightning speed, it stopped at the throat of the figure before her.
The raindrops that blotted the sky completely fell. Once again, their vision regained its clarity.
With a grin, Luo Li looked at Mu Chen before her. Her longsword stopped before Mu Chen's chest.
"I seem to have won." said Luo Li with a smile as she waved the sword in her hand.
With a smile, Mu Chen raised his hand and slowly opened it. Under Luo Li's startled gaze, a strand of silver hair appeared on his palm.
At this moment, waves of cheers erupted from the surroundings of the lake. The exchange between the two of them happened in a flash. However, there was danger lurking in the dark. If they had truly exchanged blows, Luo Li's longsword would not have stopped. Furthermore, what Mu Chen had taken away wasn't just a strand of fragrant hair.
The youth and girl before them were outstanding to the point of causing them to worship them. They truly didn't know what kind of astonishing scene it would be when they truly let go of everything and unleashed all of their means.
Fortunately, that day seemed to be about to arrive.
