Facing Ling Fan's arrogance and sudden move, the onlookers were all dumbfounded, temporarily frozen in astonishment.
"What? Has this kid gone mad? He even dares to make a move?" an old student in the crowd almost bit his tongue in shock.
"I'm f*cking, what the hell is this idiot doing, so eager to meet King Yan?"
"That's Chao Liang, the number one among the new students—Xiang Hao and Bian Xing, those big shots, were both defeated by him, and yet he dares to take the initiative?" another old student watching exclaimed in shock.
"Hmph, clueless about life and death, this idiot thinks he's someone special!" Tao Yang shook his head and snorted coldly.
"Who are you telling, our boss is a peerless genius who has grasped the Elemental Force, snuffing out this idiot is just a flick of the finger!" Jiang Wen said confidently.
Kong Yin sneered with a sinister smile, "I bet our boss can send this kid to the Western Paradise with just one punch!"
"Hehe, you're all wrong. In my opinion, your Boss Chao would only need one finger to eliminate this guy!" Xiang Hao laughed heartily.
"Hahaha, Young Master Hao is right, even a punch is giving this guy too much credit, I apologize!" Kong Yin chuckled slyly, playing along.
Su Qiong's heart was pounding and had reached her throat, everyone had witnessed Chao Liang's brilliance just now, Zhu Qing, although also enlightened with the Elemental Force, was killed by Ling Fan.
But without comparison, there was no feeling of shock; Zhu Qing, no matter how powerful before, didn't hit Su Qiong and the others as hard as Chao Liang's glow did.
Ascending to the top in the assessment, challenging the wealthy families, beating Xiang Hao senseless, completely defeating Bian Xing, founding Chao Meng, understanding the Elemental Divine Power, Elder Liang's closed-door disciple, all these achievements combined were dazzling enough to blind everyone's titanium alloy dog eyes.
Zhou Siyu's pretty face turned pale as she clenched the hem of her dress, her heart thumping violently.
Fan Zhan and Jiang Shi stared intently at Ling Fan's figure, holding their breaths and silently praying in their hearts!
Qi He was the most nervous of all in the field—he had great expectations for Ling Fan but also lacked confidence at heart.
"If you can defeat Chao Liang, that would indeed be a good thing, it could be a turning point. I hope you won't disappoint everyone!" Wu Rao muttered under her breath, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Hmph, this person Old Ghost Qi recruited is not only useless but also has a problem with his brain. How could he challenge Chao Liang? He's completely overestimating himself!" Lian Cheng, who had come back to his senses, was lost for words.
Even Wan Long and a few other elders looked at Ling Fan as if he were a fool, criticizing inwardly, thinking Qi He was indeed the academy's bizarre elder.
The students he recruited were more crooked melons and cracked dates than the ones before; this year's batch even had a lunatic!

Elder Liang's face was iron-blue as he darkly said, "Afterward, hang the corpse of this brat in the academy for three days for public display, as a warning to others!"
In his eyes, Ling Fan was already a dead man—though a hundred deaths would not be enough to vent the anger in his heart.
When the onlookers heard this, they all trembled inwardly, shuddering at the thought—Elder Liang's heart was filled with such immense resentment.
Standing in the field, Chao Liang saw Ling Fan's insolent words and proactive attack, and felt a slight surprise in his heart, then a cold smile, "If you're so anxious to seek death, then I'll oblige you!
I've heard from your useless subordinates that you're quite powerful, a genius-like figure. I've been looking forward to this for a long time.
I hope you can deliver your strongest blow, leaving behind a brilliant and memorable image before you die!"
Chao Liang's indifferent tone carried an indescribable air of dominance, which instantly inspired the members of Chao Meng, their faces filled with pride!
"Boss, kill this moron!" someone from Chao Meng suddenly shouted.
"Kill him, kill him, kill him...." The crowd chanted in unison, their momentum surging.
"Too much nonsense, killing you is but a flick of my fingers!" Ling Fan's figure flickered, dashing to Chao Liang's side.
At the same time, he muttered indifferently, "Heaven-Cutting Fist!"
Chao Liang stood in place, not showing the slightest panic, the Power of Fire Element glaringly enveloped his entire right arm. He met Ling Fan's punch with a counterattack, despite Ling Fan having struck first.
"You dare to exchange punches with me? Die!" Chao Liang shouted arrogantly.
This punch, imbued with all his Power of Fire Element, was intended to be truly spectacular, to incinerate Ling Fan into ashes!
In the eyes of everyone who took their calamitous glee for granted!
"Boom!"
A muffled roar spread out from the center where the two were clashing, like the sound of Exploding Thunder.
"Heh heh, that's it, the world just lost another idiot!" The crowd couldn't help but sneer.
Upon seeing Chao Liang's flaming right arm, Xiang Hao's mouth went dry and his heart skipped a beat.
"This guy, when he was competing with me just now, was actually holding back this much?" Xiang Hao felt a bitter resentment, conceding both in his heart and verbally.
If Chao Liang had used this move from the start, he feared he wouldn't have been able to withstand even a single punch!
Liang Dang, witnessing this, felt shocked and sighed inwardly, "Chao Liang, this kid, can't he restrain his emotions a bit? Using so much force, if he turned someone into dust, would he leave me with a corpse to handle?"
Before the onlookers had time to sneer, within the span of a breath, they saw Chao Liang grunting, as if he were a cannonball, violently thrown through the air.
"Hahahaha, this fool finally knows what's intimidating, daring to show off in front of our boss, overestimating himself, now he has nowhere to even cry!" Kong Yin laughed uncontrollably.
In his heart, it was a foregone conclusion that Chao Liang would thrash Ling Fan, seeing a figure thrown through the air instinctively led him to believe it was Ling Fan.
The newcomers from the Secular World and many members of the Chao Alliance couldn't help but burst into laughter, sharing the same thought as Kong Yin, instinctively believing that Ling Fan was the one sent flying.
However, their laughter had scarcely lasted for more than a moment before it abruptly stopped, as they quickly realized and stared in horror at the figure flying through the air.
"What... What's going on?" Jiang Wen was the first to snap out of it, muttering in shock.
"That... That's Brother Chao? How is that possible?" Tao Yang was dumbfounded.
The members of the Chao Alliance were also staring blankly, unable to accept the scene before them; their idol, their spiritual leader, their dazzlingly brilliant boss had been defeated?
The others also came to their senses, looking at the figure being thrown, their eyes almost popping out!
"Defeated... Defeated?" Bian Xing swallowed hard, his breath coming to a stop.
Xiang Hao only felt a chill throughout his body; Chao Liang was already monstrous enough, was Ling Fan even more of a monster and terrifying?
"Motherfucker, are the freshmen of this year going to explode the heavens?" Xiang Hao was genuinely dumbstruck.
Liang Dang was struck dumb, having lost the ability to think.
Qi He gasped for breath, thrilled, so thrilled he couldn't help but let out a long laugh to the sky, venting the frustration that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.
"Hahaha, the waves behind drive on those ahead, each generation stronger than the last, Ling Fan, I was not wrong about you, splendid!" Qi He bellowed.
Fan Zhan and Jiang Shi were also so excited their faces turned red, their voices trembling, "Our boss is invincible, the boss is unbeatable, damn it, it's so satisfying, beat the crap out of that asshole!"
Su Qiong and Zhou Siyu finally let go of the tension in their hearts, the tightly wound string in their souls relaxed, tears uncontrollably flowing down; without Ling Fan, their pillar, they were finished.
Wu Rao's heart trembled, as if struck by electricity, her expression complicated as she looked at Ling Fan's retreating figure, composed, proud, and domineering, even brilliant talents like Chao Liang were effortlessly defeated by him.
"You... are even better than I imagined, I underestimated you time and again, I should reflect, I shouldn't have doubted you!" Wu Rao murmured to herself.
Just as everyone was in shock, aghast, and disbelief, an even more astonishing scene occurred.
As Chao Liang was thrown through the air, starting from his right arm, flames violently exploded, beginning to devour his entire body; within a dozen meters of being thrown, he was completely wrapped in flames. Your journey continues at Freewebnovel
He resembled a fireball launched through the air, however, after the fireball continued another five or six meters, the flames extinguished, disappeared, and along with them, the person that was Chao Liang!
The whole atmosphere acted as if nothing had ever happened, as if no one had ever appeared, not even a trace of remains was left!
"Hmph, how dare the light of a firefly compete with the brilliance of the moon, playing with fire in front of Young Master Hao, overestimating himself!
I said just a moment ago that I would grant you an honorable halo, turning you into a legend—did you think I was merely farting?" Ling Fan scoffed lightly, speaking indifferently.
Just now, his Exotic Fire burst forth suddenly from within during the exchange, saving much more Origin Force than simply releasing flames directly and making it more enduring.
Only, it didn't look as spectacular on the surface, at least not as flashy as Chao Liang's fiery arm just now.
But in the battlefield, practicality is what counts, overly ornate displays are not what he pursues unless necessary.
Chao Liang was just unlucky to have crossed paths with Ling Fan, a body of dazzling talent barely had the chance to shine fully before being tragically cut down, a genius lost too soon!
However, compared to the earlier Zhu Qing, he was much luckier; though like a fleeting blossom, he at least shone brightly like a meteor once!
At least, years from now, when people recall today, they will certainly remember a genius named Chao Liang defeated by a snap of Ling Fan's fingers, and that, too, is a form of glory, isn't it!
