In the end, the Freshmen Competition ended in a somewhat comical manner. The one who obtained the number one position among the freshmen wasn't Mu Chen, who had engaged in a life and death battle with Yang Hong. Instead, it was Luo Li, who hadn't participated in the entire competition.
With regards to this result, many freshmen and seniors exchanged glances with each other before smiling bitterly and helplessly. However, they did not say anything. In fact, after the spectacular battle between Mu Chen and Yang Hong, it was likely that the following battles would not be able to surpass them. Therefore, there was no need for them to continue watching the Freshmen Competition.
As for the so-called number one freshman, it was merely a title. Luo Li, Mu Kui, and Bing Qing had yet to make a move, but there was no need to doubt their strength. The fact that they were able to reach the mountain peak so easily was already a testament to their tyrannical strength.
Moreover, sometimes, the number one freshman could not be obtained by simply seizing a Spirit Flag. After all, everyone had a scale in their hearts and naturally knew how to evaluate it.
The previous battle had caused them to feel some shock. Mu Chen was able to achieve such a feat with his identity as a freshman. Even the prideful seniors of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy couldn't help but admire him. Clearly, in their hearts, Mu Chen was the deserving number one person amongst this batch of freshmen.
Naturally, it was another problem if Mu Chen didn't care about their thoughts.
As the Freshmen Competition slowly came to an end, the training atmosphere among the freshmen slightly relaxed. Right now, they were in the period of assimilation into Hokuang Reiwon. After this period, they would gradually begin to familiarize themselves with the huge Spiritual Academy and truly become a part of it.
As for Mu Chen, he had to rest for three days before he completely recovered. This battle with Yang Hong was not easy.
Although Mu Chen was extremely displeased with him, he had to admit that Yang Hong was indeed quite capable. With his talent, he would definitely have a place in Hokuang Reiwon in the future.
However, Mu Chen wasn't afraid of him. Since he was able to defeat him once, he would naturally be able to defeat him a second time and a third time if Yang Hong didn't give up.
Mu Chen didn't mind letting him have another taste of failure.
Mu Chen sat cross-legged on the roof of the small building. He looked up at the azure sky, and after a long while, he exhaled a puff of white air.
He stretched his body lazily.
Over the past few days, he quietly stayed here to recuperate. He did not pay much attention to the commotion caused by the battle with Yang Hong.
Mu Chen glanced at the periphery of the freshmen area. There was an uproar of voices coming from there, and the people seemed to be extremely lively. Ever since the Freshmen Competition.
The area that they were in had undoubtedly become the most dazzling amongst the numerous freshmen. Quite a few freshmen had gathered here, wanting to join the Goddess Luo Association, which was overseen by Mu Chen and Luo Li.
Regarding this matter.
Mu Chen and Luo Li obviously did not have the time to care about it, but Zhou Ling was very excited. He spent his days fiddling around, and the Goddess Luo Association's reputation was growing.
"This guy."
Mu Chen smiled helplessly.
He did not understand why Zhou Ling was so passionate about this. However, Zhou Ling had a good impression of him.
He had quite a good impression of them, so he still maintained some support for what they were doing.
"Hmm?"
Mu Chen looked into the distance, and his expression suddenly changed. He turned his head, only to see a figure flashing in the sky from another direction. In a few breaths' time, he appeared on the roof of the building he was in.
The figure appeared. He had a handsome appearance, and his eyes were indifferent. It was Li Xuantong.
When Li Xuantong appeared, he looked at the somewhat lazy Mu Chen and frowned. "Do you think that defeating Yang Hong and becoming the number one freshman is enough for you to be complacent?"
Mu Chen also frowned, but he could not be bothered to argue with Li Xuantong. "The number one freshman is Luo Li, not me. Besides, I have just recovered, so a little adjustment shouldn't be too much, right?"
Mu Chen did not have a good impression of Li Xuantong. He seemed to be acquainted with Luo Li, but Mu Chen did not like it when Li Xuantong interfered in the matters between the two of them. Perhaps he had his reasons, but it was not a form of respect for the two of them.
However, Li Xuantong did not have any ill intentions towards Luo Li. Therefore, Mu Chen endured the discomfort in his heart and did not want to fall out with him.
"I also saw the battle at the Freshmen Competition a few days ago."
Li Xuantong said indifferently. "I have to say, you are indeed a little troublesome. However, to put it bluntly, you still do not have the qualifications to interact with Luo Li."
Mu Chen slightly narrowed his eyes. A trace of anger flashed across his eyes, but his voice became calm. "Senior Li Xuantong, don't you think that you are meddling a little too much?"
Mu Chen stared at Li Xuantong and said, "Please remember that you're not anyone to Luo Li. Therefore, you don't have the authority to interfere with her choice. If you look down on me, you can come at me. I'll accompany you in whatever you want."
"Are you angry?"
Li Xuantong faintly smiled as his gaze gradually turned cold. Looking at Mu Chen with a blade-like gaze, he said, "It's not that I want to interfere with her choice, but you're the one that's obstructing her from making her own choice. She's different from what you've imagined. At the same time, you can't imagine what she's enduring. You like her, but you don't know that staying by her side is a serious obstruction to her."
"Therefore, you leaving her is the best choice for the both of you. I also hope that you will do the same," Li Xuantong said in a low voice.
Mu Chen's eyes slowly turned sharp. He stood up and coldly looked at Li Xuantong. "What if I don't agree?"
"Then, in order to reduce the harm she will suffer in the future, I can only use some of my methods," Li Xuantong said indifferently.
"Then, you can try!"
Mu Chen gave tit for tat. His eyes were cold as he stared at Mu Chen. Dark-black Spiritual Energy rapidly swept out from his body.
Li Xuantong's gaze remained indifferent as he took a step forward. Instantly, the Spiritual Aura in this region crazily converged towards him, causing the sky above the building to distort. An exceedingly terrifying pressure hid the skies and covered the earth as it enveloped Mu Chen.
The terrifying pressure enveloped Mu Chen's body. However, his slender body was as straight as a spear. His black pupils stared at Li Xuantong. There wasn't the slightest trace of fear in his eyes, even if the person before him was the powerful existence ranked second on the Heavenly Ranking.
Kacha.
Cracks suddenly appeared on the ground that Mu Chen's feet were standing on. The dark black Spiritual Energy on his body was also suppressed to the point of dimming a little. However, his eyes were still firmly fixed on Li Xuantong.
This confrontation lasted for half a minute. Only then did Li Xuantong take half a step back. Instantly, the pressure rapidly dissipated. He stared at Mu Chen and said in an indifferent tone, "I'll give you two months. If you still don't want to leave Luo Li within these two months, then I will take action."
"You're a very prideful person. I think that if you're repeatedly defeated in Hokuang Reiwon, it will be a very serious blow to you."
Li Xuantong said in an indifferent tone, "Don't doubt whether I can do it or not. Believe me, compared to the obstacles that you will face in the future, my methods can be considered mild. Therefore, I hope that you can know your own limits and retreat. Don't let Luo Li fall into a difficult situation in the future."
Mu Chen's gaze was a little cold as he slowly clenched his five fingers. This kind of self-righteous fellow was truly hateful.
"You should make good use of these two months."
Li Xuantong suddenly turned his head and looked into the distance. There was a streak of light shooting over in his direction. That familiar figure was Luo Li. Clearly, she had also sensed the confrontation between the two of them. There were traces of anger mixed within the Spiritual Energy ripples coming from her.
"I hope that you won't tell Luo Li about our conversation and use her to obstruct me. If that's the case, then I will truly be thoroughly disappointed."
Li Xuantong said in an indifferent tone. Without any hesitation, his figure moved and shot towards the distance.
Rustle.
When Li Xuantong left, Luo Li had also landed on the roof. Her face was a little cold as she looked in the direction that Li Xuantong had left. Thereafter, her glassy pupils looked towards Mu Chen and said, "He didn't do anything to you, right?"
Mu Chen retracted his gaze as he smiled. There was an indistinct light in his eyes as he said, "I'm fine."
Staring at Mu Chen, Luo Li hesitated for a brief moment before saying, "He didn't say anything, right?"
Looking at Luo Li's clear and charming glassy pupils, Mu Chen suddenly stretched his arms out and wrapped them around the girl's slender waist. The girl was caught off guard as a faint shade of red appeared on her exquisite face. However, she did not resist, since she could sense that Mu Chen's mood wasn't too good.
"Luo Li."
Mu Chen lowered his head and gently sniffed the girl's soft and fragrant hair as he muttered, "No matter what, no matter what price I have to pay and how much effort I have to put in, I will definitely not let go."
The girl's jade-like arms also gently hugged Mu Chen's waist. She placed her small face on Mu Chen's chest as a gentle look flashed across her clear eyes.
Mu Chen slowly raised his head and stared in the direction that Li Xuantong had disappeared. A sharp glint gathered in his black pupils.
Li Xuantong, I don't care what reason you have, but if you really want to interfere, then I won't let you get what you want so easily.
Mu Chen knew that Li Xuantong was very powerful, even more so than Yang Hong. However, he also clearly understood that there were some things that he absolutely could not give up no matter what.
For example, the girl in his arms.
