Three days passed quickly, and soon, it was time for Xiang Shaoyun to head to the Dragon Phoenix Academy. The weather was calm, and the sky above the Bloodsin City was clear, as if the devilish energy and bloody aura enveloping the city had thinned considerably.
After taking a bath, Xiang Shaoyun brought the Han Clan sisters and Devouring Ghost to the Ghostface Sect. There, Lady Shura was waiting outside the sect entrance. She was still wearing her ghostface mask. The tight-fitting martial outfit she wore showcased her seductive figure, one that caused the Han Clan sisters to feel inferior.
In terms of looks, they might not lose out to Lady Shura. But in terms of figure, they were somewhat lacking compared to her. On top of that, she exuded a kind of wild beauty that could fill all men with a desire to conquer.
“Let’s go,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a faint smile.
Lady Shura nodded obediently. “Ok.”
The hearts of the sisters skipped a beat. They had been imagining the day when they finally became Xiang Shaoyun’s women, but now, he was holding the hand of a different woman before them. They could feel their hearts shattering.
Han Qianwei was still able to hold in her sadness, but Han Xuewei was already tearing up. Xiang Shaoyun saw, but he did not give any explanations. Instead, he brought Lady Shura to the front of the group.
Han Qianwei wanted to give Xiang Shaoyun a tongue-lashing, but she found that there really wasn’t anything she could say about this. He had long made it known to their uncle that he was uninterested in them. He only wanted them as followers. In other words, even if he had a different woman, that had nothing to do with them. Instead, they had to comply with his wishes.
Xiang Shaoyun’s actions were intentional. If the sisters didn’t even have the resilience to face something like a heartbreak, they wouldn’t be qualified to be his followers.
“Don’t cry, little sister. That will only cause that scoundrel to look down on us. There are so many men in the world. Is he our only choice?” said Han Qianwei through voice transmission.
She was comforting both her sister and herself.
Han Xuewei wiped her tears and said, “Let’s go. We’re his followers, not his women. It is not our place to interfere with his personal life.”
Han Qianwei looked at the heartbroken Han Xuewei and said, “If you really can’t stand this, it is still not too late for us to leave.”
Han Xuewei replied resolutely, “No, I refuse to remain a weakling. I can take this!”
Han Qianwei did not know what to say. She looked at the pair in front of her with mixed emotions. As for Lady Shura, she wasn’t bothered about Xiang Shaoyun’s relationship with the sisters. For her, as long as she occupied a place in his heart, it was enough.

Her thought process was completely different from that of an ordinary woman. Since young, she had undergone harsh training. She was nowhere as innocent as the sisters. This was a world where it was completely normal for a man to have more than one wife. Even if she was to find that Xiang Shaoyun actually had feelings for the sisters, she wouldn’t be shocked.
Soon, they arrived at the city hall. Tang Longfei and Ning Wenhuang were there waiting. As for Yan Shengqiu, he had departed ahead of time. That was because he did not wish to offend the Ye Clan for the sake of Xiang Shaoyun. After all, the Yan Clan was also based in the Yu Province, and nothing good would come out of offending the Ye Clan.
As for Ning Wenhuang, she had less misgivings. In any case, she had feelings for Tang Longfei and would not be overly bothered about the Ye Clan. At this time, Tang Zhan and Yu Chenba walked out from the building. Tang Zhan smiled and said, “May all of you be successful in the test.”
“Don’t worry, Father. I won’t disappoint you,” said Tang Longfei.
Ning Chenba also said something to Ning Wenhuang. When they were done, the group finally set off. Instead of flying, they would be using a teleportation formation within the city to arrive near the Dragon Phoenix Academy.
Other cities might not have a teleportation formation reaching the Dragon Phoenix Academy, but that was definitely not the case for this Bloodsin City. After all, the Bloodsin Cities were among the most important cities in the world. The Four Great Ancient Academies would even occasionally send their disciples to those cities for tempering.
Thus, such a formation was available in the city. It was located at an eastern corner of the city. Elders of the four academies were stationed there, and only members of the four academies were allowed to use it. Tang Longfei knew where the formation was, and he brought the group there straight away.
When the group arrived, they found that it was a rather concealed location that was hard to notice. However, a considerable number of youngsters were currently gathered in its vicinity. All of them were late-stage Kings. Each of them had a powerful mount, and currently, they were chatting in groups of three or four.
Xiang Shaoyun’s group became the center of attention the moment they arrived. Tang Longfei was well-known and many people extended greetings to him when he arrived. Even those who did not personally know him would nod at him as a form of greeting. Tang Longfei responded to the greetings nonchalantly. He knew that they were all talented cultivators representing different organizations. Although he was a local tyrant, he did not wish to offend these many people.
“There are four teleportation formations here. That is the one heading to the Dragon Phoenix Academy,” said Tang Longfei as he brought the group toward a certain direction.
There, a spirited old man was seated on the ground, checking the jade plates of the youngsters one by one. The jade plate would serve as both a proof of identity and a pass to use the formation.
Xiang Shaoyun took out his special-recruit jade plate and told the old man, “Both of them are with me.”
The old man scanned Xiang Shaoyun curiously before a genial smile formed on his face, “A decent kid, but quite a playboy. At the academy, forget about romance. Focus on cultivation.”
Xiang Shaoyun bowed. “This kid will remember that.”
The old man did not say anything else and continued inspecting the others. Only after a certain number of people gathered would the formation be activated. After all, the distance between the city and the Dragon Phoenix Academy was quite far. Doing so would lessen the transportation expenses.
Everyone was here to partake in the entrance test, and when they found that Xiang Shaoyun was actually a special-recruit disciple, their gazes started burning. But when they saw that he already had his followers, they were filled with regret. Even so, many still greeted him in a hope to at least become familiar with him. That way, at the Dragon Phoenix Academy, perhaps this special-recruit genius would show them some care.
Both Xiang Shaoyun and Tang Longfei did not slight anyone who offered greetings, and they responded politely. After a while, enough people had gathered for one round of teleportation.
