The voice was of Lin Huiyin. At this mont, she was surrounded by a couple of disciples, both male and female. The female disciples were all fawning over her while the male disciples competed to get her attention.
"Looks like you have gotten accustod to the academy"...
"Well, I’m getting by" He said that with a straight face, while just this morning, he was having a hard ti finding the Heaven Hall.
Seeing the usually cold Lin Huiyin suddenly brighten up to soone, the group around her suddenly beca curious. One of the male disciples who clearly held a lot of fanaticism for Lin Huiyin, spoke up.
"Senior sister, who is this person? Why is he addressing you so casually?"
At his question, she introduced Yang Chen. The latter did not even know himself how famous he was. When these disciples heard his na, they all looked at him with wide, disbelieving eyes.
With regards to their strange gazes, Yang Chen paid them no attention.
"By the way, why are you here?"...
"Ah, I’m here on task from the teacher" Since he now belonged to the Heaven Hall, the old man could be said to be his teacher.
"Oh, you have been given a personalised quest?"
He didn’t know what that was, but he nodded, prompting even more shock and awe from the disciples.
"I see, then you ca to the right place. This is the quest hall" Lin Huiyin explained.
"Disciples from the academy would co here from ti to ti, bring their spoils and exchange them at the counter for rit points. The quest you are looking for will be listed on the quest board".
Following the direction of her finger, Yang Chen could see it. Right adjacent to the counter was a large board filled to the brim with tasks and quests. Disciples lined up before the board, occasionally taking a parchnt of paper from it.
"Usually it is through these tasks that the disciples can gain rit points which can be exchanged for various benefits like learning battle skills from the martial arts hall or imrsion ti in the Infernal battle tower".
So that was the case, he nodded his head. However, he did not head for the quest board and instead walked up to the counter.
"Welco, please show the proof of the completion of your quest" the worker behind the counter said.
"I am here to take a personalised quest"...
"Personalised quest?" the servant was a little surprised, and gave him another look over "You can find the personalised quest in the upper section of the quest board".
"I’m looking for quest no. 203. Here is the sigil of the elder".
Yang Chen showed the servant the sigil as instructed. What he didn’t expect was the exaggerated reaction of the latter when he heard what quest number he was taking.
"N-N-No. 203?!!"
The servant yelled out in a loud voice, surprising all the others in the nearby counter. They all heard the number and turned their attention to this booth.
Finding sothing amiss, he questioned "Is there sothing wrong?"
The servant looked at him and the sigil he was holding before taking a deep breath to calm down.
"Forgive , young master. I will quickly bring out your quest" The worker then went into the room behind before bringing out a worn lloking scroll.
Yang Chen took the scroll before moving away. Lin Huiyin joined him, followed by her entourage, all the while being stared at with wide eyes by the staff behind the counter.
After walking out of the quest hall, he ca to a stop before a large square, not because he wanted to, but because there was a large group of disciples currently crowding the place.
"Yang Chen, so you were here!!"
Just as he was about to take a detour, another familiar voice, one as lively as autumn spring, called out.
Turning his head, he saw Tang Xun’er. At this mont, she looked quite anxious and out of breath.
"I was searching for you everywhere" Saying that, her eyes inadvertently stopped at Lin Huiyin beside him.
"What’s wrong?"...
"It’s Jiang Zhi, his elder brother has issued a challenge to you".
When she ntioned that, the eyes of the entourage following Lin Huiyin went wide. Apparently, it seed that this person was quite famous.
Jiang Zhi’s elder brother? He rembered beating an arrogant fellow yesterday. So he went to his elder brother, huh. He thought inside his head and asked, "How strong is this Jiang Zhi’s elder brother?"...
"Very strong" Tang Xun’er wore an apprehensive face and answered "He is a seat holder and a Nine Star Battle Grandmaster".
A Nine Star Battle Grandmaster?! A smile appeared on his face. Even if this person was stronger than your average Nine Star Battle Grandmaster, they were still not his opponent.
"You can’t look down on him. Previously, in one of the quests outside the academy, he fought to a draw with a Battle overlord realm practitioner".
Seeing her worry about him, he found her quite cute. Inadvertently, he extended his hand and ruffled her head.
"You!!" Imdiately, her face flushed, making her appear even more beautiful.
"When is the date of the challenge?"
Tang Xun’er snorted; nevertheless, she still answered him.
"It’s today at sundown".
Looking at the ti, it was already that hour.
"Let’s go" Yang Chen declared, walking forward.
By now, every disciple in the academy was already aware of the challenge and were waiting by the side of the training ground. As such, when Yang Chen and his entourage arrived, the disciples quickly gave way.
Up on the exact sa stage that he beat, or more like destroyed Jiang Zhi, stood a group of people. In the lead were two people, one of whom was wrapped in bandages and was missing a few teeth.
While the other held quite a resemblance to Jiang Zhi but was much more reserved and serious.
"Where is that guy who did this to my brother? Why isn’t he coming out yet?"
