Ye Yunfei was also frowning.
Ye Yunfei understood that he had no ability to fight against a Yuan Foundation Realm expert.
However, Ye Yunfei was not afraid.
As long as he activated the Tianying Robe, he could slip into space and easily depart.
The spatial formation within this valley held no restrictive power whatsoever over Ye Yunfei.
"Old man, you wait. One day, I will personally take your life."
Ye Yunfei stared at the black-robed elder, speaking each word clearly.
For those who wanted to kill him, Ye Yunfei never had a pleasant expression.
"Haha... Brat, die!"
The black-robed elder laughed in extreme rage, his right hand directly extending out, snatching towards Ye Yunfei like lightning, making space erupt with explosive sound like a colossal hand of a god or demon.
"Elder, if you dare kill Ye Yunfei, I will immediately die before you!
If I say it, I'll do it!"
Su Qingluo gritted her teeth, blocking in front of Ye Yunfei. In her delicate hand she held a dagger radiating a cold, intimidating gleam, pressing it against her neck which was as white, tender, slender, and elegant as a swan's.
"Qingluo, don't be unreasonable!"
The black-robed elder's face changed drastically, his movement stopping as he shouted sternly.
"Elder, I swear it. If you kill Ye Yunfei, I will definitely commit suicide!"
Su Qingluo had also steeled her heart, speaking loudly.
"Qingluo, you..."
That black-robed elder's face fluctuated between shades of darkness and light as he stopped his action.
He knew Su Qingluo's character; she said what she meant and meant what she said.
The black-robed elder's inner heart struggled for a while.
"Hmph!
Qingluo, let's go!"
Finally, the black-robed elder withdrew his aura completely, took a deep breath, and spoke to Qingluo.
Then,
He waved his hand, and a powerful suction force erupted.
*Whoosh!*
Qingluo's body flew involuntarily and abruptly to the side of the black-robed elder.
Then,
The black-robed elder shot a meaningful glance at the eight True Manifestation Realm experts.
Those eight True Manifestation Realm experts immediately understood.
"Ye Yunfei, prepare to die!"
The tall elder from the Lei Clan roared.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
The three Flood-Grade Treasures erupted simultaneously, a torrential tide of energy sweeping towards Ye Yunfei.
"Elder, quickly save Ye Yunfei! Please, I beg you!"
Seeing this, Qingluo couldn't help but be greatly alarmed, speaking to the black-robed elder.
"Young Lady, this brat's words offend me. It is impossible for me to save him!
Moreover, a mere ant-like figure is not worth my saving!"
The black-robed elder shook his head, his gaze appearing extremely indifferent.
"Young Lady, the Elder is right. An ant-like figure is utterly unworthy of you.
Why should you care about him?"
Rong Popo also spoke up.
Facing the three Flood-Grade Treasures, Ye Yunfei lightly frowned.
"You few old curs, one day, I will slaughter you all."
Ye Yunfei said coldly.
"Hahaha...
Ye Yunfei, do you think you can still escape today?!"
A True Manifestation Realm expert laughed madly.
However,
Right at this moment.
"You are mistaken.
Today, no one can touch him."
A voice descended from the heavens, suddenly sounding.
Then, two middle-aged men appeared like phantoms, standing beside Ye Yunfei.
Both men possessed an aura of profound ancientness, clearly extraordinary.
"Alright.
Today's matter ends here.
You all may leave."
One of the men waved his hand towards the eight True Manifestation Realm experts as he spoke.
"Esteemed Sirs, may I ask, who are you?
A mere sentence from you wishes us to leave? I'm afraid that's not possible."
The tall elder from the Lei Clan sneered as he spoke.
The other seven True Manifestation Realm experts also revealed cold sneers.
One of the men waved his hand.
A jade token flew out.
*Boom!*
This jade token swelled with the wind, instantly transforming into a stone stele towering ten meters high, majestic and awe-inspiring, its power shaking the heavens.
Upon the stele were carved four ancient characters written with flying dragons and dancing phoenixes: Hudao Academy!
"Hudao Venerables!"
The moment this stele appeared, the black-robed elder, Rong Popo, and the eight True Manifestation Realm experts all had drastic changes in their expressions, exclaiming in low voices.
Hudao Venerables were the emissaries of Hudao Academy, traversing the continent as representatives of the academy.
The Hudao Stele was refined through special methods, serving as the identification token of a Hudao Venerable. This was impossible to counterfeit.
Nor did anyone dare to counterfeit it.
Once the Hudao Stele appeared, no matter how powerful a force or expert was on this continent, they had to show respect.
"I declare that from this moment, Ye Yunfei is a candidate student of our Hudao Academy."
The man who had released the stele said clearly.
What?
Ye Yunfei had become a candidate student of Hudao Academy?
The eight True Manifestation Realm experts were somewhat dumbfounded.
The expressions of the black-robed elder and Rong Popo were extremely unpleasant.
Ye Yunfei had always been an ant-like figure in their eyes, yet now he had suddenly become a candidate student of Hudao Academy.
This indicated that Ye Yunfei had been noticed by Hudao Academy and was prepared to be recruited.
Entering Hudao Academy was equivalent to a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, a pheasant flying onto a high branch and transforming into a phoenix!
"Hudao Academy?"
Ye Yunfei himself was also slightly stunned.
In his previous life, after Ye Yunfei had cultivated to become a Heavenly Emperor, and feeling nostalgic, he had once returned to this continent to look around.
He had unintentionally heard of this academy.
However, at that time, as a Heavenly Emperor, this continent was too weak for Ye Yunfei.
He held no interest whatsoever in concerning himself with the forces of this continent.
Therefore, Ye Yunfei had only heard of Hudao Academy and had not investigated it in detail.
"You two Venerables, Ye Yunfei is merely a disciple of a fifth- or sixth-rate small sect, his status lowly.
Moreover, his temperament is ferocious, quick to kill, a great malefactor of great evil.
What qualification does he have to become a student of Hudao Academy?"
A True Manifestation Realm expert said carefully.
"Oh?
Are you doubting our judgment?
Our Hudao Academy selects talent, never asking about origins, but looking at aptitude.
Ye Yunfei is less than twenty years old, yet he can single-handedly fight against your ten True Manifestation Realm experts, not only not losing, but gaining the upper hand.
If you hadn't used Flood-Grade Treasures, could you have beaten Ye Yunfei?
As for Ye Yunfei's temperament, we understand it clearly. From start to finish, it was your major forces bullying the weak, wanting to seize the treasures on Ye Yunfei's person.
Ye Yunfei, facing traps and ambushes, dared to bravely charge into this valley to save people. Such talent is precisely what our Hudao Academy needs."
One of the Hudao Venerables said plainly.
The eight True Manifestation Realm experts looked at each other, with nothing left to say.
"Enough.
More words are useless.
Now, Ye Yunfei is already a candidate student of our Hudao Academy.
I warn you major forces of the Eastern Region, you'd best not move against Ye Yunfei again.
Otherwise, await the punishment of our Hudao Academy."
The other Hudao Venerable also spoke up.
In the end, the eight True Manifestation Realm experts gave Ye Yunfei a deep look and, bearing unwilling expressions, left the valley.
The two corpses in the valley were also taken away by them.
Hudao Academy was one of the apex forces on this continent.
Even those ancient sects and reclusive clans of the Central Continent were not necessarily willing to provoke Hudao Academy.
No matter how bold these eight True Manifestation Realm experts were, they absolutely dared not provoke Hudao Academy.
