Chapter Fifty-Six: Fame Outside
readx;? The dean of the Holy Soul Academy is known as the "old man named Qiu", and the people of the world take it for granted that this person's surname is "Qiu", so they all call him "Dean Qiu", as for the real name of Qiu, no one knows, it is said that his title has been called for more than a hundred years, and I am afraid that now his real name can't even remember himself.

Qiu Ming is a lean old man, no more than five feet tall, even if he is a little shorter than ordinary women, his body is thin and dry, and he looks a little stunted like Lu Wencai, and his appearance is even more unattractive, with small eyes, Rosacea nose with a large mouth full of jagged beige teeth, wrinkles all over the face, from a distance it looks like a cracked field, scattered a few hairs are pale color, if people who don't know the first sight of Qiu Ming, they will definitely think that this is a sick old man who is about to return to the West.
Although Qiu Ming's appearance was really flattering, it did not affect his lofty status in the Holy Soul Academy and even the entire Sacred Domain Continent, and even the Emperor had to be very polite to show respect when he saw Qiu Ming.
The academy and the royal family are originally the same faction, so the relationship between this Qiu name and the leader Yan Chong is also said to be very close.
Today's Qiu Ming is wearing a rather old gray robe, and the wide gray robe is still swaying in the wind from time to time on his thin body, obviously Qiu Ming's figure can't support this robe at all.
In Qiu Ming's right hand, there is also a dragon head crutch with a very peculiar shape, and people with a discerning eye can know at a glance that this dragon head crutch is definitely not just a crutch, it is also a divine weapon that has been around for more than a hundred years for Qiu Ming, looking at the Holy Continent, I don't know how many strong people who were once prosperous have fallen under this dragon head crutch forever.
Of course, these are all things of the past for today's Qiu Ming, today's Qiu Ming is already tired of fighting with people, and he wanted to go back to the mountains and live some immortal days in peace, but he didn't want to be on his 100th birthday, the emperor actually came to visit and repeatedly begged him to come out of the mountain, and the purpose of the mountain was to ask Qiu Ming to take charge of the first academy of the Sacred Continent, the Holy Soul Academy.
Up to now, Qiu Ming has been the dean of the Holy Soul Academy for more than thirty years, and under his careful management over the years, the Holy Soul Academy can be regarded as a meritorious achievement, cultivating many juniors with extraordinary potential, and contributing to the prosperity of the Holy Continent.
Qiu Ming walked to the viewing platform with a slightly loose step, looking at his leisurely walk, where it looked like attending the freshman ceremony, more like an old man walking birds in front of his house early in the morning.
"Dean-sama!"
When Qiu Ming's footsteps stepped on the viewing platform, dozens of college tutors who were originally sitting on the viewing platform stood up one after another, bowing respectfully to Qiu Ming.
"This dean's score is too big! We waited for a long time without saying anything, and now we are all here, and we are still so unhurried!" Lu Wencai squinted at Qiu Ming on the viewing platform, and said with a complaining look in his eyes.
"Shhhhhhh
"Hey!" Lu Wencai stuck out his tongue at Luo Xiu to show his disdain, but after all, he didn't dare to open his mouth to say anything disrespectful.
Qiu Ming nodded slightly at the instructors, and then walked to Lei Tian's side, Lei Tian hurriedly bowed and took two steps back, giving up the most central position to Qiu Ming.
"Hehe......" Qiu Ming looked around at the eight hundred freshmen on the school ground, and then grinned for no reason, although he did not deliberately raise his voice, but his voice was heard clearly by tens of thousands of students in the school field, "The number of new students is really decreasing year by year, is it possible that the current children's martial arts talent is getting worse and worse? If this continues, I don't think the freshman ceremony will be canceled in a few years?"
Qiu Ming's tone was extremely witty, and there was a hint of ridicule between his words, and when his words fell, there was already a laugh in the school field.
"Very good!" Qiu Ming nodded with a smile and glanced at the new students on the campus, "Eight hundred new students, each of your four factions is divided into two hundred, which is fair!
Qiu Ming's words seemed to be addressed to everyone, but in fact he was asking the deans of the four factions behind him.
"Lord Dean!" Just as they were about to open their mouths to answer, Qiu Qiong, the dean of the White Tiger Academy, suddenly opened his mouth, "There is something I don't know if it's appropriate to say it now?"
As soon as Qiu Qiong's words came out, the other three deans who were originally about to answer couldn't help but be stunned.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Qiu Ming turned his head suspiciously, and looked at Qiu Qiong with a light smile.
"As far as I know, as early as the middle of last night, there were tutors who broke the rules of the academy without authorization and admitted a few freshmen into their own academy in advance!" Qiu Qiong sneered and said, "Although this is not a big deal, dividing the factions for freshmen has always been a matter of the four deans, and it seems that this mentor is a little unpleasant to do this, right?"
As soon as Qiu Qiong's words came out, the face of an old man in a red robe beside him changed suddenly, this person was Zhao Yun, the dean of the Vermilion Bird Academy, Zhao Yun was originally a simple and honest old man, he didn't like to join in the fun on weekdays, and he had been conscientious, although he didn't have great success, but the management of the Vermilion Bird Academy was also in good order. Early this morning, Yan Shuang came to him and told him about the admission of Lu Yifan and a few people to the Vermilion Bird Academy, which was nothing to Zhao Yun, so he naturally readily agreed, but he didn't expect that at this moment, this matter was actually stabbed by Qiu Qiong to the dean.
"This ......" Zhao Yun looked a little restless at the moment.
"Hehe......" Qiu Ming's eyes rolled, and then before Zhao Yun could speak, he smiled lightly and said, "It's just a few students, you four factions are already discussing with each other, Qiu Qiong, why do you take this matter to heart?"
Qiu Ming originally wanted to make peace and perfunctory about this matter, but he didn't want Qiu Qiong at this moment to be like a bull's horn, and he just bit it.
"Lord Dean, if these freshmen were ordinary people, it would be fine, but they are the most potential among the freshmen this year!" Qiu Qiong argued, "Although our four major factions are all in the Holy Soul Academy, the competition every year has never stopped, and in the final analysis, they are also competing with each other, and the result of the competition has a crucial effect on the reputation and status of this faction, so who doesn't want to let their faction have a few more potential students?" For example, Lu Yifan, who is among the freshmen, won the Heavenly Grace Competition half a year ago, and even Cheng Yi of my White Tiger Academy lost that game, Cheng Yi is the most talented student in my White Tiger Academy, so you can imagine how great the potential of this Lu Yifan is?
Qiu Qiong is simply more and more aggrieved at the moment, as if he was left out in the White Tiger Academy, under his words, Qu Feng, the president of the Qinglong Academy, and Lei Tian, the president of the Xuanwu Academy, all changed their faces, before that, they didn't know that there was such a character among this group of freshmen, at this moment, after Qiu Qiong made his words clear, he felt that he was deceived by the White Tiger Academy?
"And that Ji Yuan, he is also one of the five players who once reached the finals of Tian'en among tens of thousands of people, and the most surprising thing is that this Ji Yuan cultivates the exercises, but they are divine exercises!" Qiu Qiong continued to add fuel and vinegar.
"Hiss!" When Qiu Qiong's words came out, not only the instructors on the stage, but even the students in the school were deeply shocked.
Divine exercises, this is definitely something they have only heard of in legends!
Looking at Tang Ruoxi's expression at this moment, she saw that her eyes when she looked at Lu Yifan and Ji Yuan suddenly became strange, she only knew that these two boys were newborn calves with one enemy yesterday, but she never expected the two of them to be so powerful.
And like Tang Ruoxi, there have been great changes in Liu Qing of Qingmen and Han Cheng of Hanmen, all of whom were shocked by what Qiu Qiong said.
"Damn, this old bastard actually lifted our hole cards!" Lu Wencai scolded viciously, "What does he mean by this?"
"What do you mean? Find trouble!" Lu Yifan said faintly, "This Qiu Qiong is deliberate, Qingmen is the number one force in the White Tiger Courtyard, it can be a big loss of face for us to make such a fuss yesterday, I think this Qiu Qiong Bacheng wants to take the opportunity to avenge Qingmen! But I never thought that I would be so famous now?" Lu Yifan's words still had a bit of self-deprecation in his words at the moment.
"This old thing!" Luo Xiu also scolded viciously, and then he rolled his eyes, looked at Lu Yifan and Ji Yuan excitedly, and asked in a low voice, "But Brother Yifan, is what he said true......
"Bang!"
"Shhh
Before Luo Xiu's curiosity was satisfied, Lu Wencai gave him a slap from behind, which made Luo Xiu grin in pain, and then under Lu Wencai's "vicious" gaze, Luo Xiu had to obediently close his mouth.
"Lu Yifan!" Qiu Ming nodded lightly and said, and then said aloud to the freshmen below, "This name is also thunderous for the old man, a mere master of external skills has defeated countless geniuses with good soul power in a row, and won the championship in one fell swoop! Well, it is indeed good! Who of you is Lu Yifan? Stand up and let the old man see!"
Being named by Qiu Ming, Lu Yifan hesitated at first, but after a while, he still walked out of the crowd.
"You are Lu Yifan?" Qiu Ming looked at Lu Yifan in surprise, "It's really strange! It's only been more than half a year since you obtained Heavenly Grace, but now you have reached the Second Transformation Soul Master, could it be that you really only cultivated external skills before?"
"Yes, Lord Dean!" Lu Yifan said respectfully.
Although Qiu Ming had already guessed in his heart, he was still shocked when he heard Lu Yifan's promise.
"Good, good!" Qiu Ming opened his mouth for a long time, but in the end, he only said three "good" words, "No wonder Dean Qiu Qiong robbed you by name, there is really something peculiar!"
"I don't dare to be strange, I'm still a second-turn soul master at my age, compared to the senior brothers and sisters in the academy, I'm really ashamed!" Lu Yifan said insincerely, at this moment, he didn't have the heart to chat with Qiu Ming for a long time, he just wanted to know what Qiu Ming would do with him.
"You don't have to be modest!" Qiu Ming looked at Lu Yifan with a smile, "Let me ask you, did a mentor find you yesterday and admit you to the Vermilion Bird Courtyard in advance?"
"This ......" Lu Yifan was a little difficult, although he knew that paper couldn't hold the fire, but he still didn't want to be a person who sold Yanshuang, "This ......"
"You don't have to be embarrassed, just say it!" Qiu Ming soothed, "Actually, I already know the truth and falsehood at this time, and now I just want to ask you again!"
After hesitating for a long time, Lu Yifan's heart suddenly moved, and then a touch of cunning suddenly flashed in his eyes, he raised his head and arched his hand at Qiu Ming and said, "It's not a secret, the student was indeed admitted to the Vermilion Bird Academy in advance by the tutor last night!"
"Wow!" As soon as Lu Yifan's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and most of the students were secretly accusing Lu Yifan of being ignorant, and he actually betrayed the tutor who accepted him at this time.
Especially Tang Ruoxi on the sidelines, her beautiful eyes were about to burst into flames at this moment, and she scolded Lu Yifan over and over again in her heart for being ungrateful.
And Yan Shuang, who is the person concerned, is sitting expressionlessly in a group of mentors at the moment, looking at everything that is happening in front of him calmly, and his performance at the moment is even more indifferent than that of an outsider.
"So is it true that a mentor has accepted you in advance?" Qiu Ming said in surprise, his shrewd little eyes flashing with a hint of essence, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
"Lord Dean, I think you misunderstood!" Qiu Ming's words had just fallen, and Lu Yifan hurriedly explained, his face was full of innocence and grievances at this moment, "It's not that a mentor accepted me into the Vermilion Bird Academy in advance, but the fact is that I ran to beg this mentor in the middle of the night to admit us to the Vermilion Bird Academy in advance, which is actually a selfish act of last resort." I'm really doing this to save the lives of our brothers!Lord Dean, you must be the master of our new students!" As he spoke, there was a hint of crying in Lu Yifan's words, and then looking at his eyes that had become a little ruddy, as if he was really about to cry out so aggrieved!
"Poof!"
Seeing Lu Yifan's "wonderful performance", standing among the freshmen, Han Linger couldn't hold back her laughter for a while.
"Sister Ling'er, what are you laughing at?" Seeing this, Luo Xiu couldn't help but ask curiously.
"I know you too well as Big Brother Yifan!" Han Ling'er couldn't help but smile and explained in a low voice, "Although this eldest young master of the Lu family looks quite serious on weekdays, he actually has a lot of eyes! Even Miss Ben has suffered several losses in his hands!"
Sure enough, just as Han Linger's words fell, Lu Yifan, who was standing in the distance, had officially started his performance.
"Alas!" Han Ling'er glanced at Qiu Qiong on the stage with sympathy, "Now someone steals chickens, but they have to eat rice!"
