Looking at Gu Xuan's back figure, Fang Hong clenched his teeth and said angrily: "Gu Xuan, three days later, I will be waiting for you at the Heavenly Academy's great competition square. I want to see if you have the guts to go over."

After he finished speaking, Fang Hong immediately turned around and left. In fact, even though he had come here to listen to the orders given by the Celestial Dragon King, he was still somewhat unhappy with Gu Xuan.

He was only twenty years old, and was already at the Three Stars Sovereign Level Realm, but was merely a Marquis of Secondary himself!

But Gu Xuan had just turned seventeen, with his realm and Profound Level, he had actually been bestowed the title of king. If it was someone whose strength surpassed his, then it would be fine, but Gu Xuan's strength was far weaker than his, which made him extremely furious.

Why was it that Gu Xuan was able to be conferred with the title of king, and that he was not even able to be conferred with the title of a first class marquis?

Although Tongtian Tower was convincing enough, right now, Tongtian Tower had long ago left everyone's sight. The only understanding they had was after Gu Xuan had reached the fourth floor of the Tongtian Tower.

In this sort of situation, most students would firmly believe in the academy and think that whatever the academy said was correct. However, those students with Sovereign Level already had some pride in themselves and had come into contact with higher levels of cultivation, so it could be said that they had their own thoughts.

They believed what they saw even more. As for other people's evaluation, it could only be used as a reference point.

After returning to the academy, Gu Xuan did not immediately head over to the Martial Ancestor Zi Feng s but instead went to find Zong Qi first, and took out all of the Fusion Fire Pills. To refine the Evil Spirit True Fire, the most important thing was this Fusion Fire Pill, without the assistance of the Fusion Fire Pill, refining this kind of Earth Fire would not be an easy task, even under the suppression of the heavenly fire, the Evil Spirit True Fire itself would have to cooperate.

Although Gu Xuan could definitely refine it successfully, it would probably take him a year or two. What Gu Xuan lacked the most now was time, and it was not certain whether or not Gu Xingyun would be able to leave the Great Desolate Empire. Even if Gu Xingyun did leave, there was still the Gu Family of Holy City, and this family was created by Gu Xingyun.

The moment Gu Xingyun found out, he would be facing a calamity as a result of annihilation.

A hundred years ago, Gu Xingyun was in the Great Monarch Level, and now, with Gu Xingyun's talent, and the pellet of his Space Ring that had broken through the Monarch Stage, he was afraid that he had reached an unimaginable situation.

Although Gu Xuan was not sure about the situation, but it would be good for him to quickly raise his strength.

After obtaining a large number of fire melting pellets, left all of the pellets in Yun Xi's hands to cleanse, while she took out another batch of fire melting pellets. These pellets had already been purified by Yun Xi in her spare time after she left the Yingtian Institution, and could be directly consumed.

After consuming the Fire Melting Pellet, it would produce a strange medicinal energy and fuse with the Martial Cultivator's body, causing the Martial Cultivator's body to change accordingly and making it more suitable for refining by fire. Before refining the Evil Spirit True Fire, Gu Xuan had to absorb all of these pellets.

The news of Gu Xuan's return to the academy was also spread wildly over the course of a day. Every single piece of news from Gu Xuan was the focus of attention of the entire Yingtian Institution.

As a genius even more heaven defying than Zhou Juechu, who had not even matured yet, Gu Xuan naturally made people more curious whether his performance was worthy of such an astonishing evaluation.

On this point, he was different from Zhou Juechu. Zhou Juechu had already grown, and was something that no one could hope to compare to. However, the realm that Gu Xuan was currently displaying, was Profound Level.

However, Gu Xuan was simply too low-key, to the point that there wasn't even a hint of information about him. This made many Sovereign Level Martial Cultivator doubt Gu Xuan's level.

In their eyes, Gu Xuan was just too arrogant and tyrannical, he should not be such a low-profile person. In the past four months, Gu Xuan did not have any performance, but he had definitely made some progress, and felt that he was not worthy of his position.

When Fang Hong announced that he was challenging Gu Xuan, a huge commotion arose.

Fang Hong was at the Three Stars Sovereign Level realm. Even though he was far higher than Gu Xuan, it was normal for Gu Xuan to challenge someone a few levels higher since he was able to become an Overlord when he was at the Profound Level realm.

Even back then when Zhou Juechu had reached the Sovereign Level, waiting four months was enough for him to defeat the Three Stars Sovereign Level.

Gu Xuan's Heavenly Court Large Competition had already been determined to have the power of One Star Sovereign Level, and with the addition of the academy's numerous resources, it would be a little unjustifiable for him to not even be able to defeat Three Stars Sovereign Level.

However, Fang Hong's declaration of war still did not receive any response, and even before Fang Hong sent people to Gu Xuan's pavilion, he did not provoke anyone.

Gu Xuan actually wanted to escape the challenge of a, that was simply too unreasonable. Could it really be as the rumors said, that he had not used his Tongtian Tower for a long time, and had already lost the ability to measure geniuses? Gu Xuan only reached the fourth level of the Tongtian Tower by luck, but in reality, he was only average?

"Brother Hong, we have already 'invited' Gu Xuan in front of his pavilion three times, but Gu Xuan still hasn't made a move. I think this Gu Xuan is probably afraid."

On the Heavenly Academy dueling platform, Fang Hong and the two people stood together, and one of them jokingly said to Fang Hong.

"This Gu Xuan really doesn't live up to his name. Today is already the fourth day, and Gu Xuan still hasn't appeared, I think he's afraid, he broke the promise, he has already lost, why are we still waiting for him." Another person added.

"You can't!" Fang Hong said as his lips curled into a cold smile, "Right now, it has only been a day since the time I agreed upon, so it still doesn't explain anything. He can completely find an excuse, and after two more days, if Gu Xuan doesn't appear, then his reputation will completely disappear.

The current Fang Hong had absolute confidence in his battle with Gu Xuan. He said that he and Gu Xuan would meet three days later, but it was already the fourth day. If Gu Xuan still did not appear, then it would be considered a violation of the rules.

This was enough to show that Gu Xuan didn't dare to fight with him. This made Fang Hong very proud, and felt that he was very happy to have won an opponent.

To defeat Gu Xuan, to expose his true talent, to complete this feat, he, Fang Hong, could already be considered to be an influential figure in the Academy. Furthermore, it was very likely that the academy's higher ups would give him a reward as well.

Many people thought the same, that Gu Xuan's talent already made many Sovereign Level students jealous. Now that they had grasped onto a sliver of a chance, they simply couldn't wait to enlarge it by ten or even a hundred times and disgrace Gu Xuan.

However, Fang Hong's arranged battle was just a one-sided wish on his part, what does it have to do with Gu Xuan?
