The heavy city gates of Jinlan City slowly opened, and Fan Tielan, Li Mubai, and Feng Wuhen walked out side by side. Their figures were outlined in golden light by the sunlight, and every step they took was filled with determination and passion, instantly igniting the hearts of everyone around them.

"Go for it!" Xia Zhen shouted from the city wall, and the soldiers shouted back.

"Go for it, geniuses!"

"The chosen ones of Boundless Harmony Academy, you are the best."

Hearing the shout, the three became even more confident.

In this battle, they must kill the four sons, stop the demon army from entering the city, and write their own glorious chapter.

Fan Tielan, though a woman, stands proudly in the world with the bearing of a hero. She carries a massive hammer on her shoulder, the lightning stones embedded in it shimmering in the sunlight, seemingly containing the power to tear the heavens apart. Her eyes possess both the delicate resilience of a woman and the fearless courage of a warrior, inspiring awe and respect in all who behold her.

Li Mu Bai, dressed in pristine white, holds a long sword, its tip slightly lowered, yet its sharpness is undeniable. His face is cold and righteous, his steps steady, each one seemingly treading upon the hearts of men, proclaiming the arrival of justice and light. In him, people see the demeanor of a true hero and feel an indomitable spirit.

Feng Wuhen, true to his name, is as elusive as the wind, impossible to grasp. The wind spirit blade he wields is transparent and sharp, almost blinding in sunlight; its value lies not only in its material form but also in the wind-elemental mysteries and boundless potential it embodies. His appearance is like a gentle breeze, bringing a subtle tranquility and peace to the tense atmosphere.

Zheng Qian stood to one side, his eyes sharp, looking at the three talented young men with admiration in his heart.

The powerful Guangxiang Kingdom is indeed full of hidden talents.

Their weapons look so expensive and valuable.

A cunning glint flashed in Xuanlin King's eyes. He said to his four sons, "There seems to be an agreement between me and Dean Yun, but in fact there is no agreement at all."

"The battle of geniuses is also a battle for fortune. If you win, auspicious omens will descend from the heavens. If you lose, I will not lend a hand. It all depends on yourselves."

Hiss... The four snake demons flicked their tongues, but you could tell they were very excited.

"Yes, Father."

Fan Tielan pointed at Chi Linzi: "He's mine."

Li Mubai pointed his sword at Qing Linzi: "Let's fight to the death."

Feng Wuhen looked at Huang Linzi: "My 'Wind Without a Trace' technique is just right for his 'Swift Wind and Torrent' technique."

After choosing their opponents, the three looked at Zheng Qian.

Fan Tielan: "You hold him off, and we'll come to help you after we've dealt with our opponent."

Li Mubai: "My sword is fast, hold on."

Feng Wuhen: "As long as you hold him off, we're guaranteed to win."

Zheng Qian nodded: "Okay."

Since the demons weren't ganging up on him, he wouldn't actively seek out a fight. Since the three were eager to show off, he naturally gave them the opportunity to do so.

The three of them were clearly wealthy and powerful, possibly scions of prominent families in Guangxiang City, and would likely compete with them for a spot in the Heroes' Gathering trial.

After Fan Tielan finished speaking, a cold smile appeared on his lips. He rushed out first, raising the Thunder Hammer high in his hand. The hammer was inlaid with lightning stones and crackled with lightning, and smashed it towards Chi Linzi.

"You beast, take this!"

The crimson snake, Chilinzi, flicked its forked tongue and then retracted it, its body surrounded by inextinguishable flames. With a whoosh, it shot towards Fan Tielan, and soon the man and the snake were locked in a fierce battle, locked in a close fight.

Clang! Li Mubai drew his sword, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered around it, forming dazzling sword beams that pointed straight to the sky.

"Sword Heart Clarity Technique".

The dazzling sword light instantly engulfed Qing Linzi, whose body was covered in ice, blocking Li Mubai's attack.

Feng Wuhen's Wind Spirit Blade emitted a faint cyan light, dancing in the wind, agile yet deadly. He was already entangled in battle with Huang Linzi, their figures intertwined, silent yet fierce, each move deadly.

Xia Zhen exclaimed, "Although the three of them have not experienced life-or-death battles, they all know how to strike first, seize the initiative, and suppress their opponents. They are indeed worthy of being Dean Yun's students."

Dean Yun's weathered eyes remained unmoved, and the soldiers beside him couldn't help but praise, "The students of Boundless Harmony Academy are all prodigies. Slaying a mere snake demon is a piece of cake for them."

On the battlefield, the black-scaled creature flicked its black tongue, its scales opening wide as if exploding, and thick black mist drifted out from the scales and dissipated into the air.

Zheng Qian immediately became wary. He had recently had the good fortune to witness a master of poison. The master was a wandering swordsman who could poison rainwater and air based on the weather conditions. He was incredibly skilled.

Seeing black mist rising from the black scales, Zheng Qian tore open a corner of his clothes, slashed open the monster's corpse on the ground with his sword, put the cloth into the monster's water sac to wet it, and then covered his mouth and nose.

It smells terrible, but it has detoxifying effects.

The black-scaled creature twisted its massive body and swam toward Zheng Qian. Its two sharp fangs had a row of tiny holes that emitted a chilling glint.

Hiss... Just twenty meters away, the black-scaled fangs spewed out venom, enveloping Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian dared not be careless. He stepped on the triangular star position and his figure changed in the field. His speed was even three points faster than Feng Wuhen, and he narrowly dodged the poison.

The venom sprayed onto the monster's corpse, which emitted a thick smoke and hissed before turning into a pool of black water.

"What a potent poison." Xia Zhen was still shaken. If this poison had been sprayed on him, he would have groaned a few times before dying from the poison.

"The four demonic snakes are very powerful, but the three geniuses are also very strong, they are all very fierce."

"Yes, as long as Zheng Qian can hold off Hei Linzi, victory will surely be ours."

The soldiers were even more tense than the four men in battle. This battle was not only about the lives of the four men, but also about their lives, and even more so about the lives of millions of people in the Guangxiang Kingdom.

They all assumed that King Xuanlin and Dean Yun had made a pact, but that was just their imagination. Dean Yun and King Xuanlin had no pact whatsoever. After the battle, King Xuanlin would still destroy Guangxiang Kingdom to avenge Mulinzi.

In the center of the battlefield, lightning crackled around Fan Tielan's great hammer, and the booming sound of her swings was deafening. With each strike, the entire battlefield trembled. Under the weight of her hammer, Chi Linzi could only dodge and evade, daring not to thwart her attack.

Li Mubai's sword emitted bursts of dazzling light, and the ice crystals on Qinglinzi's scales jingled as they were struck by his sword light.

Feng Wuhen and Huang Linzi were extremely fast, and the entire battlefield was filled with their phantoms as they fought fiercely and evenly.

The three fought fiercely, while Zheng Qian, under the attack of the black scales' venom, could only run away and was beaten without any power to fight back.

"There's poison in the air, be careful," Zheng Qian warned the three.

"A mere poison can't possibly harm me, Fan Tielan. You beast, take this!"

"Haha, Brother Zheng Qian, my sword of justice, Li Mubai, is not afraid of poison. You hold them off, I'll come to their aid right away."

"I am in the wind, and the wind is in me. Poison is nothing to me."

The three were very confident and didn't take the Black Scale's deadly poison seriously at all, which put Zheng Qian at ease.

The chosen ones of heaven have so many tricks up their sleeves; it seems I was overthinking it.

The deputy general, standing on the city wall, took in the battle and commented, "Zheng Qian looked very powerful when he was undergoing his tribulation, but when he encountered opponents of the same level, he was still no match for the three geniuses."

"Don't you think about it? The Boundless Harmony Academy is led by Dean Yun, and those three are the elite of the elite. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the opportunity to come out and train with Dean Yun."

Xia Zhen and his deputy exchanged a glance, both praising Dean Yun in unison, and secretly giving each other a thumbs up.

They're such good brothers, their teamwork is amazing.

Dean Yun remained unmoved, keeping his eyes fixed on the battlefield, with his gaze fixed on Zheng Qian.

Like Dean Yun, Emperor Xuanlin turned his gaze to Zheng Qian, his eyes icy. The battle they witnessed was deeper and farther-reaching than that of others.

The turning point in this battle lies with Zheng Qian.

The black-scaled venom was now scattered in the air. Zheng Qian had been unable to get close to it during its initial fierce attack, but now it could only spray it sporadically.

His venom is almost depleted.
