When everyone present saw clearly the people who teleported out of the teleportation array.
On the high platform, the cup in Xiao Long's hand shattered. His Face was full of disbelief and killing intent.
Those who teleported out of the teleportation array were none other than the students of Tianwu Academy.
And Murong Ziqian was also full of pleasant surprise.
"Zhang Hao, Zi Qian knew you could do it."
Lan Haiping led the mentors of Tianwu Academy and went up to welcome them with surprise.
"Dean!"
Mo Qing was the first to step forward and call out.
"Dean, we made you wait."
Zhang Hao, Liu Jie, and the others were all smiling.
"It's alright, as long as you can come out, let alone a few hours, even a few days or months, this Esteemed One is willing to wait!" Lan Haiping laughed loudly.
At this moment, Lan Haiping could be said to be elated, finally able to vent his pent-up frustration.
The teleportation array finally completely dimmed. It seemed no one else would be teleported out.
"Damn it, how is this possible? Where are the students of our Tianba Academy?" Gu Kaiyuan's expression was gloomy.
Xue Ping also said angrily, "Where are the students of our Changfeng Academy? The students of your Tianwu Academy must give an explanation."
Lan Haiping also got angry, pointed at Xue Ping and Gu Kaiyuan, and sneered, "Do you think the students of our Tianwu Academy are nannies? If your people didn't come out, what does that have to do with our Tianwu Academy?"
"Hmph, your Tianwu Academy was also inside the Demon King Forest, how is it not related to you?" Gu Kaiyuan's killing intent was chilling.
Xue Ping also looked at the students of Tianwu Academy with an unfriendly expression.
Lan Haiping looked at Gong Jiu and said coldly, "Alliance Leader Gong, you be the judge. Are Tianba Academy and Changfeng Academy being unreasonable? What does it have to do with our Tianwu Academy if their students didn't appear?"
Gong Jiu gave Lan Haiping a meaningful look and thought to himself: Who doesn't know the grudges between Changfeng Academy, Tianba Academy, and your Tianwu Academy? You are mortal enemies. If I were a mentor from those two academies, I would probably also question you. Of course, this was just Gong Jiu's thought, at least on the surface, he still had to maintain fairness.
"Two Deans, there's no need to argue now. Perhaps something unexpected happened to your students inside. You can simply ask some of the examiners who came out," Gong Jiu said with a chuckle.
Although Xue Ping and Gu Kaiyuan were full of anger, they still needed to give Gong Jiu some Face, at least on the surface. Although they knew Tianwu Academy was the most suspect, there was no evidence after all. Tianwu Academy was an academy of the same level as them, and not easy to deal with.
Gu Kaiyuan walked up to a few examiners who came out from Flying Cloud Academy and asked a male student, "Let me ask you, were you inside the Demon King Forest? Did you see the students of our Tianba Academy?"
That student was just a Great Martial Master. Seeing this Half-Step Martial Ancestor, the Deputy Dean of Tianba Academy, he was still a bit afraid. He timidly said, "Yes, at that time, the students of Tianba Academy were snatching our clearance tokens. My clearance token was snatched by someone from Tianba Academy. Afterwards, I hid, and I don't know anything else."
"En!"
Inside the Demon King Forest, snatching clearance tokens was normal, so Gu Kaiyuan naturally didn't suspect anything. He continued to ask a few others, but still didn't find the answer to the problem.
When he asked the students from Nine Phoenix Academy, they clearly held a lot of hatred towards the people from Tianba Academy and Changfeng Academy.
"The people from your Tianba Academy snatched the clearance tokens of our Nine Phoenix Academy, but later, we snatched them back," Tian Xinran said lightly.
"You killed people from our Tianba Academy?" Gu Kaiyuan's expression was somewhat unpleasant.
In Gu Kaiyuan's opinion, for Nine Phoenix Academy to snatch back the clearance tokens, they must have killed people, otherwise it would have been absolutely impossible to snatch back the tokens. In fact, Gu Kaiyuan's guess was correct.
"Naturally. In fact, quite a few people from our Nine Phoenix Academy have died at the hands of your Tianba Academy!" Tian Xinran didn't show any weakness.
"You're courting death!"
Gu Kaiyuan's expression was gloomy, and he was about to make a move.
"Gu Kaiyuan, you're too presumptuous! This isn't your Tianba Academy."
The one speaking was Zhu Hongyan, the Dean leading the team from Nine Phoenix Academy. This time, as the Dean, she personally led the team to participate in the examination.
"Dean Zhu!"
Gu Kaiyuan's aggressive demeanor restrained a bit. After all, the other party was the Dean of the fourth largest academy besides Tianwu Academy. In terms of status, she was slightly above him.
"Dean Gu, are you only allowed to kill the students of our academy, but not allow the students of our academy to fight back? That's too overbearing. This Esteemed One cannot stand idly by."
When Zhu Hongyan was young, she was also a hot-tempered person. At this moment, she naturally wouldn't be polite. She seemed ready to start a fight immediately if a single word was wrong.
Although Gu Kaiyuan was very confident in his cultivation, facing the expert Jade Rakshasa, who became famous thirty years ago, he had no confidence at all and could only return dejectedly.
"Alright, two Deans, let's talk about the rest later. Now, we must first count the clearance tokens."
Gong Jiu had the mentors start counting the tokens in the hands of the various examiners.
Wang Zhen one piece
Xue Qianyu one piece
...
Tian Xinran three pieces
Han Xin three pieces
Liu Jie three pieces,
Murong Longcheng three pieces
Fu Qingchen three pieces
Chu Wei three pieces
Shi Lei three pieces
Mo Qing three pieces
Zhang Hao ten pieces
When the people present heard that Zhang Hao alone obtained ten clearance tokens, they were all slightly shocked.
Because the total number of clearance tokens inside the Demon King Forest this time was only one hundred. And at this moment, Zhang Hao alone possessed ten pieces, which meant he could directly become an Outer Sect Disciple of a Sect. In a Sect, only Outer Sect Disciples were considered formal Disciples. The cultivation resources of Outer Sect Disciples were absolutely incomparable to those of a Registered Disciple.
Of course, regarding this quota, the examiners from the Ten Great Sects still needed to conduct the third stage of the examination. Only by passing the examination could one officially become a Disciple of a Sect. Of course, if an Elder from a certain Sect was willing to admit someone exceptionally, that would be another matter.
"Zhang Hao, are you still saying it has nothing to do with you?" Gu Kaiyuan glared at Zhang Hao angrily.
"That's right, you must give our Changfeng Academy an explanation?" Xue Ping also said.
Zhang Hao looked at Xue Ping and Gu Kaiyuan somewhat inexplicably and said, "Are you two idiots? This Young Master is powerful and obtained ten tokens. What does that have to do with your two academies? Why should I give you an explanation? Do your two academies only allow your own academies to achieve good results and not allow other academies to do well? Then your academies are too overbearing!"
Zhang Hao's words resonated with the smaller academies; Tianba Academy and Changfeng Academy were indeed too overbearing.
"You dare to call us idiots?"
Both Xue Ping and Gu Kaiyuan were enraged. As Deputy Deans of the Three Great Academies, when had anyone dared to speak disrespectfully to them? Who wasn't extremely respectful towards them? Now Zhang Hao's actions had angered them.
