Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 106: Where to Go?
Li Chunfeng watched the rest of the competition and witnessed the true strength of the geniuses of Shan Hai Bu Zhou. He also spotted a few figures he had met once before.

Given his social circle, it's clear he couldn't possibly have known these people in real life.

These are all opponents I've met in Yuancheng or encountered on the dueling platform.

Everyone's strength is excessively high; "the people of the world should not be underestimated."

Li Chunfeng was still there, sighing.

Little did they know, the other teams were already racking their brains about how to deal with them.

The results of the first round of battles have been gradually revealed.

Shanhai Academy Team 1 narrowly defeated Zhulu Academy Team 1.

Also advancing through the first round were Kunpeng Academy, Buzhou Academy, and Xuanyuan Academy, the traditional top three contenders.

Among the top five teams, Shan Hai Academy secured two spots, finally washing away the grievances of the past decade or so.

To recreate the former strength of the premier academy in the Shan Hai Bu Zhou!
The losers' bracket will have three more rounds of playoffs, with one lucky team receiving a bye in each round and automatically advancing to the next round to compete with the winner for the last spot in the top six.

Ultimately, in the losers' bracket, Wushan Academy and Yushiqie Academy met in the final.

Wushan Academy is named after five legendary sacred mountains: Penglai, Yingzhou, Fangzhang, Daiyu, and Yuanqiao.

Their strength is also extremely high.

In the first round of the competition, they only narrowly lost to the Xuanyuan team.

Originally, their strength was slightly superior to that of the Rain Master's Concubine team, but in the previous battles, several members were lost, and two of their main members were unable to continue fighting.

Even with all the substitutes playing, they were still a step behind.

Ultimately, the Yu Shi Qie team narrowly defeated their opponents by taking advantage of the terrain in the Bishui Valley battlefield.

Yu Shishi's Shocking Pearl Dragon redeemed itself in the following battles, repeatedly demonstrating the prowess of a powerful dragon pet.

Yu Shishi, with her sharp swordsmanship and stunning sword intent, shone brightly on the battlefield.

Her fan base is growing rapidly, and she is starting to gain more popularity than Zhou Siye.

There is no harm without comparison.

It turns out it wasn't that the dragon pet was weak, but that the opponent was too powerful!
The first day of battle has ended.

Comments from the outside world poured in, and all the discussions became a cacophony of voices.

That evening, the athletes stayed at their accommodation.

Several important guests arrived at Li Chunfeng's room.

He welcomed the guests in politely, and after a brief conversation, he respectfully saw them off.

After he left, he received special admission offers from several prestigious universities, including top-tier Taoist temples and monasteries such as Zixiao Taoist Palace, Buzhou Mountain Taoist Palace, Tiandi Mountain Taoist Palace, Fangcun Mountain Taoist Palace, Wuzhuang Temple Taoist Palace, Huoyun Cave Taoist Palace, and Longhu Mountain Taoist Palace.

Some Taoist temples can even waive all tuition fees and provide regular subsidies and bonuses for cultivation resources.

pity……

Apart from the headmaster of the Biyou Palace Imperial Academy whom he had met once before, he had not yet received any visitors from the other two Imperial Academies.

After Li Chunfeng realized that the big exam was no longer a problem, he also began to think about his future path.

Where should I go to school?

The next morning, in the cafeteria.

The organizers certainly wouldn't let the children go hungry; the food provided this time was excellent, starting with meat from third-tier monsters.

Seeing this rare opportunity to get a free meal, Li Chunfeng, Hu Yifei, and the others immediately loosened their belts and started showing off.

A figure walked over with a fragrant breeze and greeted him generously, "Li Chunfeng, good morning, let's add each other as friends."

It was Yu Shi Shi.

Li Chunfeng glanced up and, for the sake of the beautiful woman, gave her a friend slot.

Yu Shishi plopped down, ignoring the stares of those around her, and said in a familiar tone, "You bastard, you went too far yesterday. My little Zhen has never suffered such a loss before, and she still remembers that punch."

"Suffering a loss is a blessing! Getting beaten up by me is better than getting beaten up by someone else in the Abyss!"

"Hehe, then I should thank you."

"You're welcome."

"Let me guess, that punch you threw at me, was it a low-level spell?"

"Keep guessing."

He has extensive experience dealing with social terrorists.

Just focus on eating.

Yu Shishi didn't take it seriously and laughed, "How many special admission promises have you received? Is there one from the Imperial Academy?"

Li Chunfeng couldn't help but look up, "You received it?"

"That's the Imperial Academy! Have you ever seen anyone get admitted to the Imperial Academy through a special admission process without taking the entrance exam?"

Yu Shishi said with some regret, "I only received an interview invitation. Everything will depend on the results after the big exam."

"Then you have to work harder."

"what……"

Yu Shishi blinked. "What do you mean? You've received an offer of admission to the Imperial Academy without taking the entrance exam?"

Li Chunfeng did not answer.

Hu Yifei, standing to the side, couldn't help but say, "What's so great about that? Before the war even started, he received an offer of admission from Biyou Palace Academy and is still considering it."

"real or fake?"

Yu Shishi opened her red lips wide; this time, she was truly jealous.

"You rock!"

“I might not go,” Li Chunfeng added.

"Tsk~"

Yu Shishi suddenly didn't want to talk to him anymore, "Bye!"

He turned and left, graceful and decisive.

This was just a minor incident; everyone went back to showing off their bodies. "She has a great personality and is incredibly strong; no wonder everyone likes her."

Suddenly a voice came to my ears.

"Ok?"

Li Chunfeng looked at Zhou Siye with surprise.

Zhou Si shrugged and continued eating, as if she had said something, but also as if she hadn't said anything at all.

Shen Zhibai knew a little about the inside story: "Yu Shishi's family has a thousand-year-old heritage, and it is said that they possess the divine inheritance of the ancient Yu Shiqie. Rare dragon pets like the Jingtang Pearl Dragon are not easily obtained. Her achievements are not due to her alone; she has a powerful family supporting her. In comparison, you have reached this point through your own efforts, which makes you stronger than her."

Wei Wu nodded and said, "That's right, we are very strong too. Our group has always been taken care of by the academy, which has dragged the academy down a lot. This year's Qingyun Ranking can be considered as a way to vindicate the academy."

"Therefore, there is no need to belittle yourself."

Zhou Si opened her mouth as well, but that wasn't what she meant.

"Drip drop~"

Li Chunfeng's phone suddenly rang, and a video call invitation came in.

"Who is it? Why aren't you answering?"

Seeing that he hadn't answered for a while, Hu Yifei curiously leaned over.

"Friend, it's alright."

He answered the call without hesitation.

"Ding ding ding! Li Chunfeng, why are you only answering my call now? What are you doing?"

A stunningly beautiful and youthful girl with a cool and aloof demeanor appeared on the screen, and Hu Yifei immediately gaped open, exclaiming, "Holy crap, Lao Li!"

"what happened?"

Chen Lingsu happened to glance at her and exclaimed, "Wow, she's so beautiful!"

"Oh, these are your team members? Hello, I'm Lu Yun'er."

Chen Lingsu was caught peeping at someone making a phone call. She hurriedly greeted them, "Hello, hello, you're so beautiful. My name is Chen Lingsu, and his name is Hu Yifei. We are Li Chunfeng's team members."

Zhou Si also suddenly stopped eating, wanting to look up, but forcibly held back.

"I watched your video. Is Hu Yifei the martial artist who emits golden light?"

Hu Yifei's lips twitched, and Chen Lingsu, Xia Xing, and Jiang Lele also couldn't help but chuckle.

"It turns out that in everyone's eyes, I am a radiant martial artist."

"Haha, I know you, Hu Yifei. I even sent you an email, you know?"

Hu Yifei was taken aback. "So it was you, the one who relayed messages to Li Chunfeng in the Ghost Realm. You wouldn't happen to be that internet celebrity who posted the Mysterious Abyss City video, would you?"

"Hehe, it's me. But I'm wearing a mask, so no one knows."

And so they started chatting in a magical way.

Yu Shishi has a fairly high level of social skills, but she is still a long way from being a socially anxious person.

Don't let Lu Yun'er's cool and aloof appearance fool you into thinking she's a cold and unapproachable beauty; in reality, she's the real terrorist.

Li Chunfeng knew that once she started talking, she wouldn't stop easily, so he ate the meat heartily.

Let them chat.

Zhou Si and the others also kept their ears perked up, realizing that it was actually a major internet celebrity with tens of millions of followers.

Lu Yun'er always appears in the video wearing a mask, but she has an excellent image and temperament. Fans have already concluded that she will be an absolute beauty, but some people have also complained that she is so ugly that she is ashamed to be seen in public.

She turned out to be a stunning beauty.

It would have been incredibly rude of them not to sneak a peek. They weren't that familiar with Li Chunfeng either, otherwise they definitely would have gone over to take a look.

Zhou Si ate a couple of bites silently, but suddenly lost her appetite and got up to leave.

Li Chunfeng caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye and interjected, "I'm still eating."

Lu Yun'er said, "I saw it. You go ahead and eat. I watched your fight video today, but did you watch my match?"

"I haven't checked yet, but I searched it up. Didn't you advance?"

"Of course I advanced! With a top expert like me here, advancing was inevitable. We've already made a promise to meet in the final ranking competition. When we meet in real life, you'll have to treat me to a drink."

"I'm afraid you won't make it into the overall ranking competition."

"Tch, don't underestimate me. I'm Lu Yun'er."

We chatted for quite a while before finally hanging up.

"She's such a contrast!" Chen Lingsu couldn't help but stick out her tongue.

Li Chunfeng smiled.

The final six matches continue today.

Today, Li Chunfeng's team will face... Yu Shi Qie Academy team.

Hu Yifei was overjoyed as soon as he finished drawing lots.

The members of the Rain Master's Concubine team immediately lowered their heads, "They're truly vengeful spirits."

This time, even their teacher didn't say anything to boost morale.

Thus, the second round of battle was almost a carbon copy of the first.

The only difference is that the battlefield has changed; there are no three passages anymore, and the terrain is much more complex.

Yu Shishi and the others wanted to fight back, at least to take down some of Li Chunfeng's teammates. However, Li Chunfeng saw through their plan and unleashed his divine power, wiping out the entire team single-handedly.

The Pearl Dragon of Surging Waves wanted revenge, but then it was hit by a Heavenly Rank Soul Fireball and screamed as Yu Shishi took it into her soul aperture.

After the battle, Yu Shishi was filled with resentment. Her dragon had actually developed a fear of Li Chunfeng.

Little did they know, this Soul Fireball was a result of Li Chunfeng holding back.

The Rain Master's Concubine Academy team's journey on the Azure Cloud Ranking has ended, but the members still have individual competitions to participate in. Fortunately, Li Chunfeng did not participate in the individual competitions. Otherwise, if Rain Master were to encounter Li Chunfeng again, it's uncertain whether she would still dare to summon the Pearl Dragon.

Team Shan Hai Academy also failed to advance beyond the second round.

Even with the subsequent playoffs, they still failed to reach the final four!
The eighteen teams from Kunpeng Academy, Buzhou Academy, Xuanyuan Academy, and Shanhai Academy will compete for the final championship!
