Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Second day.

Within the Martial Arts Arena of Imperial University.

The seats around were already filled with students, mostly sophomores, juniors, and seniors.

And some students from other schools; for the Freshmen Grand Competition, as long as they were from schools within Wuu Xia, student IDs could be used to enter and watch.

The headmaster of Imperial University, Chen Qingyang, along with the two vice-principals, Yan Xingtian and Yan Motong, who had returned from afar, were sitting on the observation platform.

Chen Qingyang, with his youthful appearance and white hair, glanced around, ”Eh, why don’t I see Shen Fei?”

This time, for the Freshmen Grand Competition, Chen Qingyang had specially returned from guarding the Abyss, just to meet this student, who was already considered extraordinary upon entering school.

Shen Fei.

After all, back when Shen Fei took the college entrance exam, he was also observing, but he didn’t go to the Abyss of Ten Thousand Insects.

Even giving Shen Fei the quota for the Ancient Secret Realm by Wu Xie received his personal approval.

Otherwise, even Yan Xingtian and Yan Motong wouldn’t have the authority.

But though he had already seen him on live broadcast, he had never seen him in person, now there was a bit of an opportunity.

Why hasn’t he shown up yet.

Meanwhile, the headmasters from the four prestigious schools who came today were also scanning the surroundings and, upon meeting each other’s gaze, all saw the wry smile on each other’s faces.

Ye Fengbai said with a wry smile, ”In hindsight, we shouldn’t have spared any cost to fight for Shen Fei, at the time of the college entrance exam he might have only surpassed his peers by a large margin, but now...

Even when we see him, we should treat him as an equal. What is this situation.”

Wang Bi’an shook his head, ”Not treating him as an equal, when we see him, we might even have to salute him, we are merely at the peak of Tier Eight, and haven’t reached Emperor yet.”

”Moreover, Shen Fei is originally from the South China Area, yet in the end he still did not choose our Coastal University.”

The headmasters of the Great Wall Project and Yannan University, Dugu Wu and Xie Cheng’an, exchanged a glance.

Xie Cheng’an spoke with a tone of helplessness, ”Who could have known. How long has it been. Every time I hear about Shen Fei’s situation, I wonder if I’ve slept for decades.”

”Is it true that Shen Fei would come as a judge and a contestant? I wonder what this means?”

Curiosity flickered across Yan Motong’s beautiful eyes; she too had been guarding outside for years, returning for this freshman competition mainly to see Shen Fei.

Yan Xingtian, who was usually in charge of school affairs, had been in contact with Li Cunlong, and naturally knew what Shen Fei intended.

”He will let his Summoned Beast instruct others, and he will decide whether his opponent passes or not.”

”Instruct? What can he instruct?”

Even Chen Qingyang was a bit curious now; he knew Shen Fei’s talent was strong, but when you speak of instructing...

Strength is just one aspect; it also requires insight and knowledge of various professions.

”Hmm... Shen Fei’s three Summoned Beasts are now serving as practical teachers for our Combat System freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, and as a professor in the Support System, specifically the Pharmacist type.

If not for Shen Fei’s assassin Summoned Beast being ill-suited for exposure, perhaps the assassin category also needs Shen Fei’s guidance.”

”Is that so?”

Chen Qingyang found it quite interesting; the current prestige of Shen Fei isn’t the glory given by Imperial University.

Instead, he brings enough renown to Imperial University.

Even if Shen Fei has not yet become a King, during the encirclement in Shencheng City, he has already completely proved that Shen Fei has the invincible power of a King.

An eighteen-year-old King.

You could say, this is the youngest King-level force since the Professional era emerged.

Unprecedented, and very likely to be unmatched in the future.

These words alone are enough to add another layer of glory to Imperial University.

The headmasters of the four prestigious schools now regret not breaking the bank to forcibly bring Shen Fei to their schools back then.

”But this is what I deserved.”

Chen Qingyang chuckled, grateful for his decisiveness back then.

”Hmm? The people from the Heavenly Pride Club have arrived.”

And at this very moment.

A huge mass of clouds appeared in the sky, seemingly entangled within a colossal being.

Or rather, it’s this colossal being, enshrouded by cloud mist, moving swiftly with clouds that seemed to shift along.

Upon seeing this cloud mist, Chen Qingyang and the others, who had just seated themselves, stood up and smiled, ”Didn’t expect it to be Dragon Emperor this time.”

”Greetings, Dragon Emperor.”

Unless one has reached Tier Nine, even headmasters must pay their respects, for within the Professionals, power matters more than status.

”Headmasters, you’re too kind.”

Xu Zixu’s voice came from within the mist, and then the mist dispersed, revealing the dragon’s silhouette within.

Fish scales, serpent-like body, with four claws extending skyward, and scales white as clouds; its dragon head exuded authority, flying without wind.

Upon the dragon’s back stood several figures, with Xu Zixu, a young figure, standing on the dragon’s head.

The students of Imperial University, who were originally discussing in the Martial Arts Arena, fell silent.

This is an Emperor.

”Greetings, Headmaster, Vice-Headmasters.”

Xu Zixu was also a student of Imperial University, though now also a Tier Nine, he was someone who valued manners.

And when it’s between the same tier, it’s not about strength but status.

Xu Zixu let the Cloud Dragon descend, and after everyone disembarked, the Cloud Dragon soared up, transforming into mist in the sky.

”Brought some juniors to see the strength of this generation’s juniors, to curb their arrogance.”

Xu Zixu smiled, and Chen Qingyang and the others looked at the young ones behind Xu Zixu.

Four males and three females.

The seven bowed together, ”Greetings, seniors.”

Chen Qingyang smiled, ”No need for such formalities, please be seated.”

Xu Zixu nodded, ”Very well.”

Soon afterward, another Emperor arrived, a professor from Chang’an University.

The Mad Sword Emperor, Lin Feng, whose master was the ’One Sword Overthrows Immortal’—Gongsun Manor.

Lin Feng, unlike the polite Xu Zixu, only nodded in greeting upon landing.

However, when everyone looked at the woman behind him, Lin Feng explained, ”My disciple, Bai Qingzhao.”

”Greetings, seniors!”

Bai Qingzhao showed no expression, but slightly respectful, secretly smirking as she thought Tang Yann surely didn’t expect her to watch here.

”Got it, a Heavenly Pride from South China.”

Chen Qingyang nodded; naturally, he knew about this as well.

He had also considered recruiting her to Imperial University, but all the bargaining chips were given to Shen Fei’s parents back then.

Moreover, this young woman seemed more inclined towards Chang’an University.

”Even the Mad Sword Emperor takes a disciple?”

”Strong talent, powerful profession.” Lin Feng glanced at Xu Zixu, ”You dare to come to Imperial University? Not afraid the War God will wipe you all out?”

”That Shen Fei kid is untouchable now; heard the Pope lost an arm to the War God.

And two Tier Five Heavenly Prides under thirty were directly killed.”

”You think the War God doesn’t know about your actions?”

Upon these words.

The faces of those following Xu Zixu stiffened, but Xu Zixu chuckled, ”The teacher isn’t unreasonable; she struck the Church because they breached the regulations first.”

”Well, it’s timely, my disciple has good aptitude; she will join your exchange match.”

After speaking, Lin Feng sat in his seat, closed his eyes, and began resting.

More figures kept appearing, and the once spacious high platform was soon filled.

”Imperial University, this Freshmen Grand Competition, is starting now.”

With the broadcast’s announcement, the atmosphere in the Martial Arts Arena immediately surged.

People in the audience seats strained their necks to look around.

”Eh, wasn’t it said Shen Fei would also come to the Freshmen Grand Competition?”

”Huh? Shen Fei participating in the Freshmen Grand Competition? The one who kills Venerable like slaughtering chickens and fights Kings as if they’re children?”

”Insider news, it’s true.”

”That’s just crazy! Isn’t this first place predetermined? No way, brother? The King of Invincibility attending the Freshmen Grand Competition?”

”They’re saying it’s through a different method; anyway, seeing Shen Fei in person is worth it, especially now that Shen Fei is hailed as the first Heavenly Pride of Blue Star.”

When the news that Shen Fei would participate in the Freshmen Grand Competition spread among those from other schools, excitement peaked.

After all, Shen Fei is already acknowledged as an invincible King, quickly merging the concept of ’King of Invincibility’ with ’Freshmen Grand Competition.’

What kind of freshman is that?!

Despite everyone scanning the area, no one could find any sign of Shen Fei.

And the draw for the matches was about to start.

”Isn’t Shen Fei coming?”

Chen Qingyang frowned, looking at Li Cunlong.

Li Cunlong quickly responded, ”Senior brother said he would come, maybe something’s holding him up.”

The next moment.

The crowd began to stir as several figures entered from the gate of the Martial Arts Arena.

Suddenly.

Xu Zixu, Chen Qingyang, Yan Motong, Lin Feng, and Yan Xingtian’s expressions changed simultaneously.

In an instant, their gaze fell on the figures entering through the gate.

”Shen Fei’s Summoned Beasts have grown stronger again?”

Xu Zixu murmured, feeling a slight threat from two of the figures.

To think there was a time when one of Shen Fei’s Summoned Beasts could easily crush him.
