"Little girl, are you really going to stand up for him?" The Seventh Elder asked with a cold expression. "As an academy elder, you are no match for me."
"Even if I'm not your match, I can't let you harm my friend," Bi Yao stated directly. "Moreover, he is no ordinary person. If you truly lay hands on him, you will regret it in the future."
"Ridiculous. For me, an elder of the prestigious North Sea Academy, to deal with a mere ordinary disciple, what is there to say?" the Seventh Elder said coldly.
"If he were an ordinary disciple, then it would be nothing, but he is not an ordinary person."
Bi Yao said frankly, "A third-grade alchemist has boundless prospects and will have many followers. If you offend him, you will eventually bring trouble upon yourself."
"A third-grade alchemist?"
The Seventh Elder trembled slightly and looked at Bi Yao. "Is this true?"
"How could this be false!"
Bi Yao pointed to the three badges on Lu Fan's shoulder. "These alchemist badges wouldn't be fake, would they? And he is an alchemist recognized by the Pill Tower. To become a third-grade at such a young age, his future is immeasurable. If you offend him, how will he let you off easily in the future?"
The Seventh Elder's brow furrowed instantly. He wouldn't care about ordinary people, but if it were an alchemist, he truly dared not act rashly. After all, powerful alchemists were quite sought after in the Spirit Realm.
"Master, you must not listen to their nonsense!" Wan Hai quickly said. "This kid is so young, how could he possibly be a third-grade alchemist? I'm afraid he stole that badge!" Su Dan Novel Network
"A third-grade alchemist's badge was stolen? If you have the ability, you can try it too!" Bi Yao said coldly.
The Seventh Elder, however, shook his head. "This badge is real, there's no mistake. He is indeed an alchemist."
Wan Hai's face turned ashen. If this were true, dealing with Lu Fan might not be so easy. A third-grade alchemist was someone even he couldn't afford to offend.
"A third-grade alchemist is indeed not an ordinary person!"
The Seventh Elder stated directly, "But for disregarding the rules so much, he must pay a price."
"In the end, you still want to make a move!" Bi Yao frowned, still shielding Lu Fan behind her.
"Step aside, I don't want to hurt you!"
The Seventh Elder's expression was cold. Not only was he extremely concerned about his reputation, but he also would not tolerate disrespect. Otherwise, he would not show any mercy.
"Old man, if you want to deal with him, you'll have to deal with me first!" Bi Yao's expression was cold. "I will not allow you to harm him in front of me."
"You must never forget that you are merely a disciple. Even as the Dean's personal disciple, you shouldn't speak to me like this!"
As soon as the Seventh Elder finished speaking, a powerful aura surged forth, and in the blink of an eye, he stepped towards Bi Yao.
Seeing what was happening before him, Bi Yao dared not be careless. Although she was a Spirit King realm expert, she was well aware of the elder's strength, which had reached the peak of the Spirit King realm. With her current abilities, she was no match for the elder.
Boom...
A loud impact sounded, and Bi Yao was sent flying violently, with blood seeping from the corner of her mouth and her face turning even paler.
The Seventh Elder stood with his hands behind his back, his coldness even more pronounced. "With just you, you think you can stop me? Do you really think your strength can rival an elder?"
"If you harm him, the Dean will not let you off easily."
Bi Yao spoke, "The Dean has already promised to take him as a disciple. I hope the elder will conduct himself with dignity."
Many people present exclaimed. If this were true, wouldn't Lu Fan's future be boundless? To become the Dean's disciple, he couldn't be an ordinary person.
"Do not falsely convey the Dean's orders!"
The Seventh Elder said coldly, "I don't believe this kid has already become the Dean's disciple."
"My master told me himself, how could there be a mistake!" Bi Yao stated directly.
The Seventh Elder ignored her and lunged fiercely towards Lu Fan. He absolutely would not allow a disciple to be so arrogant in front of him.
Lu Fan's figure retreated sharply, but against someone at the peak of the Spirit King realm, he had no power to resist. His body was sent flying violently, and his expression turned grim.
Pfft...
If the Seventh Elder truly intended to kill him, he would be doomed.
"Lu kid, don't confront him head-on!"
The elder Hong Meng spoke, "Hurry and leave this place!"
Lu Fan nodded vigorously and then fled, not daring to delay even for a moment. A master at the peak of the Spirit King realm was simply beyond his control.
"It's not so easy to escape!"
The Seventh Elder sneered and pursued Lu Fan again.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the elder Hong Meng instantly channeled spiritual energy into the Tai Xu Sword, pushing Lu Fan's speed to its limit.
"What do we do? What do we do now!"
Li Ziming shouted, "Won't the Sect Master be in trouble? If something really happens to him, how can I live with myself?"
"He won't be in trouble, he definitely won't be in trouble!" Chu Ting said with a frown, her own brow furrowed.
She did not wish for anything to happen to Lu Fan. At this point, it made her feel somewhat helpless.
Seeing this, Bi Yao said no more and quickly moved towards another direction. She knew very well that the only one who could save Lu Fan now was likely her master, Lin Beixuan.
Within the North Sea Academy, many disciples watched, not knowing what had happened. One figure was fleeing rapidly, while another was rushing forward.
"The Seventh Elder really made a move! That person is so powerful! To actually make an elder make a move!"
"Who says not! But this time, it's probably a big problem. Daring to challenge an elder will surely lead to endless trouble!"
Everyone conversed, and many disciples stepped out, chasing after them. They didn't want to miss the excitement, especially such a thrilling spectacle.
Wan Hai followed along, looking exceptionally proud. The Seventh Elder had made a move for him, a favor that other disciples could likely never experience.
A short while later, Lu Fan arrived at the plaza of the North Sea Academy and was struck heavily again, blood appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Good kid, your physique is not bad. You can actually take two of my palms!"
The Seventh Elder narrowed his eyes. "If you kneel and admit your mistake, I can spare your life. Otherwise, I fear you will not escape today. As an elder of the North Sea Academy, I do not care about the life and death of a student."
"Dream on!" Lu Fan said coldly. "The enmity of today is irreconcilable. If there is a tomorrow, I will surely repay it!"
"Good kid, if I don't kill you today, how can I establish myself in the North Sea Academy?"
The Seventh Elder's aura was imposing, and he unleashed a powerful strike, his palm coming towards Lu Fan.
"Lu kid, use the Tai Xu Sword!"
The elder Hong Meng's voice rang out. He had poured all his spiritual power into the Tai Xu Sword, even consuming a significant amount of his spiritual consciousness. If Lu Fan were not in danger, he would never have depleted himself like this.
Lu Fan could no longer afford to be cautious. He fiercely swung the Tai Xu Sword, and a surge of Tai Xu sword intent emerged.
