Chapter 165 Rumors— Outbreak of News

In contrast, Li Canyang was more mature and experienced. He shook his head and smiled, “Ashamed, it is still Brother Ding that you have made rapid progress, you deserve to have the god-level quality talent. To this day, I still cannot see through your strength. I am afraid that the focus of this second five academies competition is still between Brother Ding and the first and second members of the “Honorable Alliance of Seven” in the Central Academy of white shirts. Rumor has it that both Li Muyun and Liang Feixue have broken through the seven-apertured Martial Disciple Realm. Also, Lin Xin and Ren Xiaoyao in the Northern Academy of yellow shirts are not negligible. In addition, Lyu Kuang, the ‘Crazy Kuang’ and Wang Xiaoshi, the academy head in the Southern Academy of purple shirts with inner strife have been fighting for power and money and stopped cultivation so that they will fall behind in the second five academies competition.”

Ding Hao nodded and said, “I have also heard these rumors. Li Muyun and Liang Feixue are the elites of man. A breakthrough is inevitable for them. Lin Xin and Ren Xiaoyao are also gifted and should not be underestimated. It’s better not to mention the Southern Academy of purple shirts. The Western Academy of red shirts will definitely replace it this time.”

Li Canyang smiled, revealing the young man’s confidence and aggressiveness at this moment. He clenched his fist and said, “This time the Western Academy of red shirts must surprise everyone.”

Ding Hao burst out laughing and was also pleased with the achievements by two old friends.

“Oh. By the way.” Li Canyang’s expression suddenly became solemn, “Yesterday I heard many people talking about one thing, and I was trying to ask Brother Ding for advice.”

“Go ahead.” Ding Hao said.

“A lot of nominal disciples are talking about it. Brother Ding is going to fight with Mu Tianyang, a ‘prodigy’ of Tranquility Academy in the Frozen Peak three years later. This matter…” Li Canyang hesitated.

“It’s true.” Ding Hao smiled.

Has this event finally spread among ordinary lower-level disciples?

So fast, I think someone is fanning a fire behind it, trying to create some invisible pressure on me?

Looking at Ding Hao’s serious expression, Li Canyang knew that the matter was not a joke and said urgently, “Is it because of the last trial, that’s why… But the last incident was clearly caused by us, Brother Ding you…”

“It’s no use discussing the cause now,” Ding Hao interrupted him and smiled. “The path of fighters is determined to forge ahead. It’s just a fight. Why should we be afraid of it? Brother Li, don’t worry about me. I also want to make use of this opportunity to give myself a little pressure.”

Li Canyang stared at Ding Hao blankly and then nodded, “Brother Ding is brave with heroic spirit. I am not as good as you. During the following three years, tell me frankly when you need my help. Li Canyang and Li Yiruo, we brother and sister will never make any excuses.”

Xiao Chengxuan was quick-eyed and discontented. “Me too. Count me in. We are a group. I will never shirk.”

Ding Hao felt warm in his heart and laughed loudly, “Well, then we will tell you frankly if you are in need.”

“Hey, have you heard that Ding Hao and the ‘prodigy’ of Tranquility Academy have made a fight appointment?”

“What? Ding Hao in the Eastern Academy of the Blue Shirts? With Mu Tianyang? Are you kidding? They are not of the same level at all?”

“Absolutely right, this is news from the inner sect. It is said that the fight is for Li Yiruo. Ding Hao took an initiative to carry out a life-and-death fight with Mu Tianyang in the Frozen Peak three years later.”

“Is Ding Hao crazy?”

“Yes, Mu Tianyang is a genius blessed by heaven. He has already broken the barrier between heaven and man and entered a priori. It is said that even many strong men of the older generation at the level of the primordial grandmasters are not his rivals. Between Ding Hao and Mu Tianyang, there are five big realms and more than 40 Small Realms, just like ants to dragons, and he has taken the initiative to fight?”

“Hey hey, I have thought that Ding Hao is disagreeable to the eye for a long time. He was lucky to win the first in the first five academies competition. Incredibly he has an exaggerated opinion of his abilities as one who does not know the immensity of heaven and earth so that he has been inflated to such a degree. Hey hey, at this pace, in half a year or a year, he will take an initiative to fight with the Head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect?”

“Why do you talk about Senior Brother Ding Hao in such a tone? Everyone can see how Senior Brother Ding Hao is. Hum, I think there must be some unknown reason.”

“Yes. I heard that Mu Tianyang is overbearing and rampant, and he is no good…”

“I want to say that the reason is very simple and femme fatale. The woman named Li Yiruo is definitely no good, and she fascinates Ding Hao. Let two geniuses fight against each other. The man is really poor!”

Crowds coming and going, in a particularly excited tone, were talking about this super big event that broke out suddenly today.

This morning, nobody knew where the news spread first. The news that Ding Hao challenged Mu Tianyang of Tranquility Academy swept across the whole Swordsmanship-seeking Sect like a hurricane, especially among nominal disciples, causing huge waves.

Almost no one thought highly of Ding Hao— although he was the first in the five academies competition, compared with Mu Tianyang, a famous super genius in Snow Province, he was still too far away, and the two were not rivals at the same weight.

There were all kinds of rumors.

Ding Hao has heard too many such rumors all the way back from the slums.

Many people instinctively lowered their voices when they saw Ding Hao. There were also some nominal disciples hostile to Ding Hao, such as registered disciples in the Central Academy of white shirts. They deliberately talked loudly, apparently to Ding Hao.

Ding Hao smiled gently and ignored these idle and pain-stricken guys.

How can a swallow sparrow know the ambition of a great swan! Let’s wait and see three years later!

“Meow!” The adorable little cat seemed to feel Ding Hao’s mood, lying on his shoulder and meowed a few times in a sickeningly sweet manner and acting as a spoiled child to comfort Ding Hao. Habitually he used his pink and tender warm small tongue to lick Ding Hao’s cheek lightly.

Ding Hao rubbed the cat’s little head lovingly to express his gratitude.

“Meow, meow, meow!” The cat brushed his furry little head against Ding Hao’s palm happily and responded sweetly.

This little fellow had a slight fragrance. It was extremely clean and seemed to be free from dust. Furthermore the little adorable cat had human nature with a lot of Spiritual Qi, and it was very clingy at the same time.

Of course, being clingy was only to Ding Hao. For others, the little fellow became noble and cold, squinting and ignoring. Most of the time he liked to lie on Ding Hao’s shoulder and snored lazily while basking in the sun.

There was no class that day.

When he returned to the residence, he did not see Wang Xiaoqi and Zhang Fan and did not know what they were doing. They were not in the courtyard.

Ding Hao closed the door and began to practice again.

Time was extremely precious to Ding Hao, so the children in the slums district did not know how precious the time was which Ding Hao spent in teaching them every day.

Time flew quickly.

Very soon, it was already sunset.

With a burst of footsteps approaching, Wang Xiaoqi and Zhang Fan, like successful stealthy weasels, came in from the outside excitedly.

“Xiao Fan, Xiaoqi, come here.” An idea came to Ding Hao suddenly, and he waved to them.
