Just as he walked out, he saw Fang Xin walking in. Earlier, Fang Xin had lost an arm to the black ringed snake, but he had already relied on medicine to recover.

"Did Cao Yuer go to find you for trouble?"

After seeing Di Chen, Fang Xin also sneered: "Her talent is not bad, and his cultivation is also quite fast. He has already broken through to the ninth stage of the life reaping realm, and his strength isn't inferior to mine.

Di Chen knew that the reason why Cao Yuer knew about Cao Rouer being eaten by black ringed snake was definitely because Fang Xin said so, and said calmly: "You can't kill me, so you want Cao Yuer to kill me.

Fang Xin's expression darkened: "Di Chen, you're too brazen, I can survive in the mouth of the black ringed snake King, can you?"

Di Chen thought that he could still kill the black ringed snake King, but he did not know how to say such words. He laughed: "Haven't you heard that there are a lot of martial kings in the academy scolding me recently? Those martial kings were all at a disadvantage under my hands, yet you say that my strength is weaker than yours?"

Fang Xin naturally heard the martial kings swearing at him, he could faintly guess that Di Chen had completed the Vermillion Bird Fruit's mission, and was even able to complete these missions one step ahead of them. To think that Di Chen was so strong that he was actually unable to respond to them.

Di Chen looked at Fang Xin with a face full of ridicule. Without wasting any time with him, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"Di Chen," Just then, Fang Xin called out to him again, seeing that no one was around, he laughed: "Guess how Cao Rouer died."

Di Chen stopped in his tracks, turned around and coldly stared at Fang Xin, his face cold as he asked: "Did Cao Rouer not die in the mouth of the black ringed snake King?"

Fang Xin taunted: "Do you think we will be that foolish? If the Vermillion Bird Fruit has been snatched away, why should we fight against it?"

Di Chen instantly understood what was going on: "You said that you were the one who killed Cao Rouer? But before I left, the three of you were clearly fighting against the black ringed snake King head on. "

Fang Xin laughed: "If that's not the case, why would you admit to Cao Yuer that you're not going to save me?"

Di Chen had seen Cao Rouer and the black ringed snake King fighting previously, so when Cao Yuer said that Di Chen was not saved, he admitted it. However, only now did Di Chen know that Fang Xin and Cao Rouer did not fight against the black ringed snake King recklessly, and after Di Chen left, the three of them left. Fang Xin had killed Cao Rouer and Jiang You, and he told Cao Yuer that it was because Di Chen did not save him that he was eaten by the black ringed snake King, and in the end, Cao Yuer believed it, and Di Chen admitted it.

Although Di Chen's relationship with him was normal, but Fang Xin actually killed Cao Rouer in order to take revenge on him. This made Di Chen a little angry, he clenched his fists and stared straight at Fang Xin.

Fang Xin laughed coldly: "What, you want to kill me? This is an academy, you can't kill me. Furthermore, do you have the strength to kill me?"

Di Chen squinted his eyes, he suddenly saw that Fang Xin's entire body was as black as ink, which meant that Fang Xin's future was extremely miserable, and he no longer had any thoughts of killing him.

"The academy's ranking is in a hurry in a few days. Fang Xin, I hope you can live until that day."

Regardless of life or death, a large number of people would die in the Academy Ranking Tournament every year. Di Chen's meaning was that he was prepared to kill Fang Xin during the tournament.

Fang Xin laughed coldly: "Di Chen, you truly think too highly of yourself. Do you really think you can defeat me?"

Di Chen calmly looked at him. If it wasn't for the academy forbidding him to kill, Di Chen could have killed him right now, but he could not do so. Without saying a word, he turned and left.

Purple Light Pavilion.

On the left was Principal Mu Zhongli, Vice Principal Liang Xinghe, and a few elders of the Academy. On the right was Flame Emperor, Ai Lun, and Jin Kai.

"I never thought that the Flame Emperor would actually come personally to watch the ranking battle of our Sky Realm Academy. It is truly the fortune of our Sky Realm Academy."

This was the first time the Flame Emperor had come to the Sky Realm Academy, and even Mu Zhongli was a little surprised. He had originally thought that the Flame Emperor would send people over, but he didn't expect that the Flame Emperor would actually come personally. One must know that there were many people in the Martial Region Continent who wanted to kill the Flame Emperor.

Flame Emperor was naturally aware of the danger of coming out this time, but he did not mind as he smiled: "Sky Realm Academy is one of the three great academies of my Martial Region Continent. I also want to see how talented you are."

The imperial government did not have a system to select warriors, but in Martial Region Continent, almost all of the talented warriors were from the Three Great Academies. In fact, the Flame Emperor also wanted to choose some of the talents from the Three Great Academies to enter the imperial government.

How could Mu Zhongli not know the purpose of the Flame Emperor's visit? It was just that he couldn't care less. After all, many martial artists would enter the Imperial Court after graduation.

"Oh yeah," Ai Lun suddenly asked, "Principal Mu, how did that good-for-nothing son of mine perform?"

Mu Zhongli smiled. "Your son has worked hard. He has already broken through to the seventh stage of Life Seizing."

Ai Lun laughed bitterly and shook his head: "I understand my son, myself, and I am unwilling to work hard, and my talent is poor. If I did not give the Spirit Sword in the family to him, he would not have been able to enter the Sky Realm Academy, and in this life, he will at most be able to cultivate to the Martial King Realm."

Liang Xinghe laughed: General Ai cannot say that, other than being hardworking, cultivators also need to rely on luck and luck, there is a student called Cao Yuer in A class. Previously, she did not like to cultivate and her talent was average, but previously, she obtained a Spirit Opening Pill from the Thousand Monster Mountain, so her cultivation speed is not something that many people in the Sky Realm Academy can compare to.

In fact, there were quite a lot of students like Cao Yuer, and Di Chen could also be considered one of them.

Ai Lun still laughed bitterly, thinking that Ai Yeshi did not have such luck.

"Oh right," Jin Kai also asked. "I wonder how that son of mine, Jin Kai, who is an expert, is doing?"

Liang Xinghe said: "He often cultivates with Ai Yeshi."

Jin Kai shook his head in disappointment. How could he not understand the meaning of these words?

Flame Emperor asked curiously, "Principal Mu, can you introduce us to the more talented students in the academy?"

Mu Zhongli smiled mysteriously. "The ranking battle will be held in a few more days. By then, His Majesty will naturally know. I believe that His Majesty will not be disappointed this time."

When the Flame Emperor heard Mu Zhongli's words, he became curious. Many of the teachers in the Sky Realm Academy were stronger than the military officers of the imperial government.

After that, the Flame Emperor and Mu Zhongli talked about some of the experts in the Martial Region Continent, and it was only two hours before the Flame Emperor left. Mu Zhongli had sent people to prepare a room for the Flame Emperor, and the Flame Emperor had already sent Ai Lun to find Qiu Tang.

"Have you investigated this Di Chen before?"

Flame Emperor went straight to the point. "Does this person have any ill intentions?"

Qiu Tang laughed: "Recently, I have been in contact with Di Chen a lot. He is actually just an ordinary scholar, but he has a lot of literary talent and has his own ideas. As for conspiring against him, I definitely do not have those thoughts, royal father can be at ease."

Flame Emperor had already guessed that it would be like this, after all, a person with the intention to rebel would not be able to participate in the Imperial examinations, "Oh right, how did a scholar enter the Sky Realm Academy?"

Qiu Tang shook his head: "Not only is he a scholar, he is also a martial artist. Furthermore, the cultivation technique he cultivates seems very strange, it should be at the ninth stage of Life Seizing, and his strength is not ordinary."

Qiu Tang also did not know that Di Chen was actually a literati, which was also normal, and he had never seen a real literati before.

The Flame Emperor said, "It's rare for a talented martial artist to be this outstanding in literature. If he's truly as good as you say, then I'll think of a way to make him join the assembly."

The number of people entering the imperial court for the past few years was getting fewer and fewer. Those true experts were all in the public, so the Flame Emperor came out this time to recruit more talents to become an official.

After returning to the medicinal garden, Di Chen started to copy books. This time, Di Chen used the Sky Spill Brush, and discovered that the power of the scholars in his body increased a lot faster when he used the Sky Spill Brush, multiple times faster than before. After copying all of the books, Di Chen's realm had faintly reached the ninth level of the Scholar Realm, but it was still a little short of breaking through.

"I've finally broken through." Di Chen was pleasantly surprised. The time it took to break through to the ninth stage of the Scholar Realm was far longer than he had expected.

But after breaking through this time, Di Chen felt the power of the scholars in his body increase by several times. This was because the Heaven Devouring Brush had absorbed the power of the written word and infused it into Di Chen's body.

"With my current strength, I don't think any of the Lifestealer Realm in the Sky Realm Academy would be a match for me."

Di Chen's realm as a scholar had already reached the limit, he could defeat most people with Lifestealer Realm with just a few formula, not to mention that Di Chen could be considered half a warrior. Although his realm as a scholar could not be raised, his strength as a warrior could still improve, allowing him to kill more demonic beast to absorb its flesh and blood.

But Di Chen didn't have the time at the moment, and after cultivating for a few days more, the fifth year of ranking battles, had finally begun.

Not only could they show their strength, they could also receive generous rewards. Every time those students who went into closed door training or traveled outside, they would return to the Academy to participate in the ranking competition.

At medicinal garden.

Yang Mengqi looked at Di Chen and said: "The ranking competition started from the Lifestealer Realm, am I confident?"

Di Chen laughed heartily, "Don't worry Teacher Yang. I have already reached the ninth stage of the Nascent Soul Stage as a scholar and a martial practitioner, so there shouldn't be anyone who can be my match in Lifestealer Realm.

Yang Mengqi laughed out loud: "It's been so many years since I've fought with others, I'm not confident either, but I will do my best."

Although she said that, Yang Mengqi seemed to be very confident. After all, Yang Mengqi was also the proud daughter of heaven back then.

Yang Mengqi let Yuan Tong and Qin Suer stay in the medicinal garden, then went to the competition grounds, only she did not notice that Yuan Tong had also secretly followed them.
