Chapter 746: Three Great Geniuses Cause Trouble

"Please calm down, everyone. Teacher Zhang was not arranged by me; Elder Mi personally gave the instruction." The senior student named Huang Xing, seeing the three approach to question him, quickly explained.

"Elder Mi?"The three were stunned.

What qualification did a first-year freshman have to receive personal instructions from Elder Mi, one of the Ten Elders?

"I don't care if an elder gave the instruction. To live here, one must first possess abilities superior to ours. Otherwise, not only will I not be convinced, but none of the first-year students will be either! My friend, do you dare to compete with me?"The first young man snorted.

The Elite Zone had its own rules. Only those with absolute strength and ability were allowed to reside there. Without that level of competence, not to mention Elder Mi, even if the Ten Elders jointly issued an order, no one would be impressed.

"Teacher Zhang, this is Wu Chan. He was the second-place finisher in the last grade competition. His cultivation has already reached the pinnacle of the Bridged Heaven Realm, but his Heart of Understanding hasn't reached the required level, so he can't advance to a 5-star master teacher..." A senior student who had brought Zhang Xuan over whispered to him from nearby.

"Grade competition?" Zhang Xuan asked, puzzled.In Tianxuan Kingdom, he was a teacher, and his students went through grade competitions and various troubles. Now that he was a student, did he have to go through this as well? And this competition would certainly be different from the one he knew. After all, everyone present was a master teacher, not just a cultivator.

"Yes, every year, each grade has a competition where they compete in various abilities of master teachers. Only those who stand at the pinnacle are qualified to live here..." Seeing that he was unaware, the young man continued to explain.

Zhang Xuan understood.This must be similar to the Master Teacher Tournament. Every year, the entire grade would compete once, with rankings established to encourage students to improve. Judging by their attitude, they must be displeased seeing him reside in the No. 1 courtyard. It was no wonder; they had been senior students at the academy for who knew how many years. If a newly enrolled freshman snatched the top spot, what face would they have left to show others?

Understanding this, Zhang Xuan smiled faintly. He looked at Wu Chan before him and asked, "You want to compete with me? What do you wish to compete in?"

Although he preferred to keep a low profile, he was not afraid of trouble. If he didn't teach them a lesson and simply entered the courtyard, there would likely be an endless stream of challengers later, which would be incredibly troublesome. It would be better to resolve it all at once.

"Since we are all master teachers, we should ideally resolve this with master teacher techniques. However, that's rather cumbersome. Let's make it simple and decide the victor based on strength!" Wu Chan chuckled softly. Master teacher techniques were too numerous; competing in each one would be incredibly tedious. It was more direct to settle it with a display of strength.

"Strength?""Precisely. We are not only master teachers but also martial artists. As long as you can defeat me in terms of strength, I will have no complaints about you living here!" Wu Chan said.

"Oh!" Zhang Xuan nodded. He turned to the other two and asked, "What about you two? What do you wish to compete in?"

"Me? I want to compete with you in Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers!" The female student raised an eyebrow.It was unclear whether this female student had altered her master teacher robe herself or had it custom-made, but it fit her perfectly, revealing her slender waist. Both her looks and figure were quite good. However, compared to Luo Qiqi, Yu Fei'er, and others, she was far inferior. She could only be considered of above-average attractiveness. Nevertheless, in the male-dominated field of master teachers, she still garnered significant attention.

"She is Ran Xiaoxiao, the third-place finisher in the grade competition!" The young man continued his whispered transmission, "The other one is Xiao Nan, who took fourth place!"

Zhang Xuan nodded and looked at the last person, "And you?""I won't make it complicated either. I want to compete with you in strength!" Xiao Nan said.

"Alright!"Seeing that two wanted to compete in strength and one in Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers, Zhang Xuan rubbed his temples. He looked at the female master teacher, Ran Xiaoxiao, who was standing to the side, and said, "In that case, I won't bully you all. Ran Xiaoxiao, is it? You can step in for me and give those two a good lesson!"

"Huh? I step in for you and also teach *them* a lesson?" Ran Xiaoxiao was startled.Was this guy crazy? The three of them had specifically come to teach *him* a lesson and compete with him, yet he actually wanted *her* to deal with the other two? Was he dreaming? Wu Chan and Xiao Nan were also taken aback, looking at him as if he were an idiot. They had thought that since he could make Elder Mi personally issue an order, he must possess some extraordinary ability. They didn't expect him to be just a loudmouth. Ran Xiaoxiao had come with them; how could she possibly make a move?

"Precisely. Your zhenqi is flowing in reverse within your body, making it difficult to break through the Ziwei and Yingtai acupoints. It has been accumulating for about three months now, and you've been feeling an itch all over your body, haven't you?" Zhang Xuan smiled faintly. Although the opponent hadn't used any martial techniques, her cultivation was only at the Bridged Heaven Realm, inferior to his. His Eye of Insight could clearly see the root of the problem.

"You... you..."Ran Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes widened.Indeed, for the past three months, she had struggled to advance her cultivation. The obstructions at her Ziwei and Yingtai acupoints had caused blockages, leading to an irritating itch all over her body and considerable discomfort.

"Come, I'll tell you what to do now, and you can easily break through!" Ignoring her shock, Zhang Xuan looked over with a calm expression. "The reason these two acupoints cannot be broken through is that your zhenqi circulation method is incorrect. Now, listen to my instructions: let your qi sink into the Sea of Wisdom, circulate it through..." As he spoke, he listed over a dozen acupoints.

Upon hearing the acupoints he mentioned, Ran Xiaoxiao felt a moment of hesitation, wondering whether to try it. Then she felt these acupoints suddenly pulsate several times, and her zhenqi began to circulate involuntarily."This is... Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers? Oh no..."Her face paled, and she nearly burst into tears. She had said she wanted to compete in Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers, but before she even began to prepare, the other party had already started. This was a dirty trick!

Just as she was about to forcefully control her zhenqi circulation to resist the influence, she suddenly felt that the Ziwei and Yingtai acupoints had indeed become much looser, as if they could be broken through at any moment."This..."She blinked her eyes.Could it be... that what he said was true? Could circulating zhenqi like this truly break through the bottleneck she hadn't been able to overcome for three months?

Realizing this, she no longer suppressed her zhenqi circulation and strictly followed his instructions.Boom!Moments later, she felt her body lighten, the obstruction vanished, and her aura became much sharper.

"Alright, go compete with them!" Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

"Yes!"Under the Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers, what he said became a Master Teacher's Order, which could not be defied. Ran Xiaoxiao raised her delicate eyebrows and charged at Wu Chan and Xiao Nan, who were standing to the side.

"What the hell!""You bastard!"The two were just waiting to compete with this Teacher Zhang when they saw Ran Xiaoxiao charging at them. They immediately understood what was happening and nearly fainted, cursing loudly. Other master teacher competitions usually involved mutual probing, with courtesy before force. But this guy was different; as soon as he arrived, without a word, he first manipulated one of them. However, since Ran Xiaoxiao dared to compete in Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers, it showed her Heart of Understanding was extremely high. For someone with such a high Heart of Understanding to be swayed by a single sentence from the other party, it meant he must possess extraordinary means.

"Hmph, do you think manipulating Ran Xiaoxiao can make you defeat us? We've been together for years and have sparred dozens of times; we know her techniques and moves like the back of our hands..." With a low snort, Wu Chan moved like lightning, easily dodging Ran Xiaoxiao's successive attacks. The three of them were ranked second, third, and fourth in the grade competition. They had fought countless times in the past and knew each other's moves intimately. It would be absolutely impossible to defeat the two of them by relying on Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers.

"Wu Chan, I'll tie up Ran Xiaoxiao; you go teach that guy a lesson..." Xiao Nan also snorted.

"Okay!"Nodding, Wu Chan was about to advance when he heard the young man's faint voice from nearby: "Night Rain Connecting Rivers, Cold Mountains Drifting Snow, Frost Leaves Red Blossoms..." The voice was neither fast nor slow, and very pleasant to the ear."Night Rain Connecting Rivers," "Cold Mountains Drifting Snow," and "Frost Leaves Red Blossoms" were all martial art moves they had practiced extensively. Under normal circumstances, these moves were not connected. But for some unknown reason, as soon as the other party spoke, he immediately felt an uncontrollable smoothness within his heart, and an urge to perform them instantly.

"No... I can't fall for his trick!" He knew that if he truly performed them, he would lose control just like Ran Xiaoxiao and become an experimental subject of the opponent's Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers. Wu Chan's face contorted, and he bit the tip of his tongue. Under the sharp pain, he immediately felt much clearer. He then heard a series of "slap, slap, slap, slap" sounds, only to see Ran Xiaoxiao performing those moves, and Xiao Nan already beaten into a pig's head.

"This..."Startled, Wu Chan's eyes nearly popped out.Even if Xiao Nan's strength was inferior to Ran Xiaoxiao's, it was impossible for him to be defeated in a single move! For him to be beaten so badly now, there was only one possibility... that these moves, when linked together, could not only be performed but were also extremely powerful! Otherwise, it would be impossible to beat someone whose strength was not much different from his own to such a state in just a few breaths!

"I don't believe it..." The more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed. Gritting his teeth, he twisted his wrist and charged directly at Ran Xiaoxiao. He was very familiar with these moves; seeing her perform them, he immediately understood how to defend against them. However, for some unknown reason, when she executed them, they were ghost-like and enchanting, making them impossible to guard against. Relying on his own strength, he dodged several moves in a row, but cold sweat was already beading on his forehead. It was clear that Ran Xiaoxiao, under the guidance of the other party, had made significant progress in her cultivation; even he was somewhat outmatched!

Just one instance of Heavenly Impartation of Master Teachers made Ran Xiaoxiao gain so much strength? Could it be that the combination of these moves was truly so miraculous?

"Forget it, I'll try..." He took a step back, exited the fighting circle, and gritted his teeth. Wu Chan also continuously performed the moves the young man had just spoken."Pfft!"Just as he executed the third move, he felt his zhenqi violently shake and completely reverse. His face turned pale, and he spurted a mouthful of fresh blood.Slap, slap, slap!Ran Xiaoxiao walked forward and slapped him to the ground twice.

"This..."He had thought it would take some time to defeat this guy, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. Zhang Xuan scratched his head, full of confusion. "Ran Xiaoxiao had her Ziwei and Yingtai acupoints opened, and as a female, there was no issue with her using these moves. What was this guy doing? Randomly using these moves like that, he could easily suffer from qi deviation..."
