Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4924: Side Story -- City 12

”Are we going back?” the empress asked.

This time, they didn’t set out with their entire family. Instead, a limited number of people secretly ran out for a small trip.

”Since you’re already here, why don’t you stay for a few more days and settle the matters here?” Ling Han said, a sharp look in his eyes.

After this Stacked Era began, Ling Han secretly spread his knowledge of martial arts and formulated the corresponding Regulations.

High level civilizations could not interfere with the evolution of low-level civilizations. This was an ironclad rule.

But now, he discovered that the evolution of this planet had been disturbed.

—The sudden change was the result of man-made interference.

This planet had not experienced any kind of ancient war, but rather was very poor by nature in terms of Spiritual Qi. Theoretically speaking, there shouldn’t have been any evolution of martial arts, and could only take the path of technology.

But now, the Spiritual Qi had suddenly increased tenfold or a hundredfold, causing both wild beasts and humans to evolve. Naturally, there was a mastermind behind all this.

With Ling Han’s abilities, as long as he released his divine sense, he would be able to envelop the entire universe. However, since he was already engrossed in this game, he naturally wouldn’t mind playing.

”All right.” The empress nodded gently, and snuggled into Ling Han’s arms, as obedient as a cat.

How detestable!

Everyone wanted nothing more than to rush up and take a few bites, and dismember Ling Han.

This was too much of a b@stard. That was everyone’s goddess, so how could you blaspheme her?

At this time, the leaders of the police and the academy were also alerted, and appeared one after another.

Logically speaking, Ling Han should have returned to the police station to record his statement after committing murder in public. However, he had already proven his strength.

A Level 4 cultivator!

This was too awesome, breaking the record of the Zhou Su City’s martial academy. When he graduated, what heights would he reach?

Hence, the academy naturally had to do their utmost to protect this kind of prodigy. With a personal call from the headmaster, Ling Han was allowed to stay in the academy for the investigation.

What level was the Headmaster of the martial academy?

The weight of a High Grade Level 8 cultivator was far too heavy.

Thus, the police force had no choice but to give face to this high-ranked cultivator. They only said that before the results of the investigation were out, they definitely could not allow Ling Han to leave the city.

In truth, the area outside the city was filled with wild beasts, so where could one go outside the city?

Soon, the results of the investigation were out. It was indeed deliberate targeting from the Wang Clan, including the records of the transfer of funds from Wang Jun to Ruan Zhiping. .

Thus, Ling Han had only received some verbal reprimands. He shouldn’t have been too ruthless, but as for other things... he was completely fine.

This was the special privilege of cultivators.

Compared to a Level 4 cultivator who had boundless future prospects, what was a mere Level 2, Level 1 or pseudo cultivator worth?

At Ling Han’s request, Yang Qi was also accepted into the martial academy in advance. He had been in a daze the entire day;how had his childhood friend suddenly become so powerful?

And Ling Han had also become a legend of the academy all of a sudden.

—He had not even officially enrolled into the academy, and was already a Level 4 cultivator. This was practically unprecedented, and would never be seen again in future. Furthermore, what was even more enthralling was the fact that he had courted the goddess of the academy the moment he appeared. This was what made people feel the most bitter and hateful.

Less than two days later, someone from the military suddenly came, wanting to join forces with the academy to destroy the lair of a high-level Foreign Beast.

This was also a training trip for the students. Thus, the main force was high-ranked cultivators, but they would also bring a lot of low-ranked students.

After some discussion, the leaders of the academy agreed to this joint mission.

The candidates were quickly chosen. Though Ling Han was a pseudo-new student, because his cultivation level was as high as Level 4, he had naturally entered into the main list of candidates. Accompanying him was the empress. She was presently a High Level teacher of the academy, and the cultivation level that she had reported had reached Level 6, which was considerably higher than even Ling Han.

Soldiers were naturally swift and resolute in their actions. On this side, the moment the academy prepared itself, the military immediately sent out personnel, who arrived at the entrance of the academy.

This time, the academy had mobilized 12 students. Aside from Ling Han, a pseudo-new student, the others were all elites, and had reached at least Level 1. Additionally, there were also five teachers, and the one in charge was the vice-principal, Ge Hui, a Level 7 High Grade cultivator.

And in the case of the army, they had similarly mobilized twelve young soldiers, and there were also five Medium and High Grade cultivators standing guard among them.

”Principal Ge, long time no see,” a military elite greeted Ge Hui. He was about forty years old, and was at the peak of his life. His vitality was extremely vigorous.

”General Tan!” Ge Hui also greeted him. His name was Tan Yuan, and he had the military rank of a major general. He was a Level 7 High Grade cultivator, and was of the same level as himself.

The two big shots began to chat casually, and the others also greeted each other.

”I heard that your academy took in a prodigy who even killed two soldiers of our army!” a young man from the army suddenly said.

Though he had used the word ”heard”, his eyes were fixed on Ling Han.

Obviously, he had seen Ling Han’s information before, and had directly locked onto his target.

Though Wang Jun and Li Hengming were the culprits, to the military, the fact that these two people had been killed by Ling Han was still an extremely great humiliation.

Thus, this young warrior could not wait to draw his sword.

—Wang Jun and Li Hengming indeed deserved to die, but the military had to get their pride back.

Ling Han glanced at this young man, then shifted his gaze, treating this person like air.

”How arrogant!” That young soldier smirked coldly, ”My name is Xiao Hu, and my current military rank is Second Lieutenant, a Level 3 cultivator. Do you dare battle me?”

Level 3 cultivator!

This cultivation level was a little scary. In the martial academy, this cultivation level could squeeze into the top ten. Obviously, the military had also sent out elite recruits this time.

However, the strength that Ling Han had displayed to the outside world was Level 4, and the gap between Level 3 and Level 4 was a qualitative leap. Xiao Hu would definitely be aware of this fact, yet still dared to challenge Ling Han, so what kind of backing did he have?

”Hehe, it is inevitable that young people would be competitive,” Tan Yuan said with a smile. ”However, we cultivators grow through fighting. If we don’t have that kind of fighting spirit, all of us should just become clerical staff!”

”Headmaster Ge, let the two youngsters spar for a while.”

He was a Level 7 High Grade cultivator, and since he had spoken, anyone would have to give him some face.

Thus, Ge Hui only paused slightly, then nodded, ”All right.”

Though he felt that it was illogical for a Level 3 cultivator to challenge a Level 4 cultivator, he himself was a Level 7 cultivator, and knew very well just how massive the gap was between Level 4 and Level 3.

Thus, as long as Ling Han wasn’t too careless, he would definitely win this battle.

Since he would definitely win, he naturally would not mind a battle.

Xiao Hu immediately jumped out, pointed at Ling Han and said, ”Come!”

Yet Ling Han had absolutely no intention of making a move. He stated calmly, ”You are unqualified!”

Unqualified?

Xiao Hu was naturally enraged. Just how much was he looking down on him?

”Young man, it’s just a fight, so it won’t take too much time,” Tan Yuan said to Ling Han. He then joked, ”Just treat it as giving me some face?”

”Why should I give you face?” Ling Han retorted directly.
