behind him, so I saw everything clearly."I was actually thinking about how to save you, but I didn't expect you to take care of that old geezer Shi Wan Ce yourself. You really surprised me.""Senior, h...Jiang Fangzhou's face darkened to the extreme. He had participated in so many assessments before, and he had also seen other senior brothers and students fighting during the assessments. Generally, they wouldn't fight back, allowing the assessor to display their own cultivation and martial arts to the instructors.

Even when occasionally retaliating, it was only to push the other party back, stopping short of going too far. It had never been this harsh and direct like today.

For him, being injured didn't matter much. He could just bear it and get over it; at most, he would need to rest for a while.

The most unacceptable thing is that many people, under a huge gap in cultivation, are unable to demonstrate their own cultivation and abilities at all. They get severely injured but still can't pass.

Wei Ping, however, was extremely pleased, his smile growing more and more smug. He seemed not to be the examiner at all, but rather enjoying the feeling of crushing them.

Many students, while extremely dissatisfied with this situation, were helpless and could only silently endure it.

"Next, No. 35 Dong Chao."

Dong Chao's reaction was completely different from the others. He wasn't nervous at all, instead, he had a bright smile on his face and walked up to them with ease.

After taking the stage, he truly displayed his might. He first unleashed a mighty palm strike that was on par with Wei Ping, a cultivator at the late Nascent Soul stage.

"Good job, Dong Chao! Good job!"

"Go, Dong Chao!"

The drastically different scene gave the remaining students a glimmer of hope, and they began to cheer and applaud Dong Chao fervently.

Ye Bufan's mouth curled into a faint smile, something that others couldn't quite see through. He, however, saw it clearly.

Before Dong Chao took the field, he made eye contact with Wei Ping. The two of them obviously knew each other.

And Wei Ping's actions seemed ruthless, in fact, he didn't even use half the strength he had used against others before, completely letting his guard down.

However, his methods were very sophisticated and undetectable to the average person.

The two people on the field were still fighting fiercely, going back and forth evenly matched. The scene looked extremely beautiful.

After ten moves, Dong Chao not only remained unharmed, but he wasn't even pushed back once. He responded with utmost composure and calmness.

"Not bad, junior brother. You're quite impressive at such a young age. When I was your age, I certainly didn't have this kind of ability."

Wei Ping raised a big thumb in public, praising highly, then turned his head to look at Guan Dechun beside him.

"Master, this junior student not only has insufficient cultivation, but also possesses remarkable combat capabilities. I believe our academy has recruited another promising talent this time, who will surely achieve astonishing feats in the future."

"Master Wei praised me."

Dong Chao said this, but his face was smiling like a chrysanthemum, smugly glancing at Ye Bufan and Jiang Fangzhou.

Guan Dechun nodded and said, "Not bad, he's indeed a promising talent, Dong Chao, you passed. Report to the outer court tomorrow."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Dong Chao bowed, then retreated with a beaming face. As he passed Wei Ping, he whispered, "Cousin, give those two guys behind me a good thrashing, the worse the better. I'll treat you to a drink later, brother."

Wei Ping nodded imperceptibly, a cold smile appearing on his face, his gaze sweeping over Ye Bufan and Jiang Fangzhou.

Dong Chao did not leave, but stood beside with a sneer watching the show. He wanted to see how miserable these two people who dared to offend him would end up.

Guan Dechun continued to call out: "Next, No. 36 Jiang Fangzhou."

"Big Brother Ye, it's my turn."

Jiang Fangzhou was very nervous, his body trembling slightly.

This time, Ye Bufan didn't simply offer comfort. Instead, he whispered a reminder: "Be careful, this Wei Ping is not a good person. If you can't handle it, just concede defeat."

"Surrender"er their bodies.The remaining monsters, unwilling to be outdone, each offered their own blood. Soon, seven drops of blood, like jewels, floated before Ye Bufan.Thank you.Ye Bufan said, using a jade bo...
