Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 276 Woman in Red Dress
"Oh!"

On the high platform, a ball of light suddenly rose up; it was Shi Hao stretching his body, engaging in a fierce battle with the chains of order.

Clearly, this is the sixth level of the Heavenly Ladder!

"This guy... he seemed like a pervert before, clamoring to bathe with the ten beauties, but now he seems not bad at all, quite impressive."

"Yeah, so handsome, so amazing!"

"Hey, stop being such a fangirl!"

"But he's really handsome! Not only does he have a delicate face, but his hair is also shiny and his eyes are bright and piercing. More importantly, he's so strong. He's practically my dream lover."

Watching Shi Hao's performance on stage, many of the girls watching were very excited, chattering away, their faces full of excitement.

His tall figure, coupled with the overwhelming divine light emanating from his body, made him appear like a supreme god, shocking everyone present.

"I'm not late, am I?"

Just then, a clear, bell-like sound rang out, followed by a graceful girl in a blue dress. Her pupils were as bright as sapphires, and her hair was a light blue. With a gentle sway, it was as beautiful and moving as a clear stream.

As soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention.

"It's Tianyao! Tianyao has appeared!"

"I never imagined that the sound of the bell would even startle her!"

In just a moment, the place became bustling with noise, and many men unconsciously cast eager glances at it.

"Not only Tianyao, but Qingyi and Fengwu also came."

By this time, whether they were supposed to come or not, everyone had arrived. The entire gate of the Heavenly Immortal Academy was packed with people, with many geniuses gathered, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.

"Was he the one climbing the Heavenly Ladder?"

As soon as Tianyao arrived, she naturally went to Yunxi's side, gently smoothing her long, light blue hair while staring at the boy on the stage and asking a question softly.

"Yes."

Although Tianyao did not look over, Yunxi still responded politely, "It is indeed the young man on the stage who is climbing the Heavenly Ladder."

After saying that, Yunxi turned to look at Shi An beside her, wondering why he didn't try to climb the so-called Heavenly Ladder. But when she looked over, she found him staring intently at a woman in a red dress not far away.

This sight immediately made her gaze sharpen and her brows furrow.

But she quickly regained her composure and, following Shi An's gaze, began to scrutinize the woman in the red dress.

She knew very well that the other party would not stare at a strange woman for no reason, even if the woman was exceptionally beautiful. The only reason that could make him do this was that there was something strange about the woman.

Thinking about it, Yunxi's gaze became a little more serious.

To her surprise, she did notice something unusual. She sensed a familiar aura emanating from the other person, just like when she first met Qingyi.

Thinking of this, Yunxi immediately sent a telepathic message: "Brother An, that woman..."

The sudden sound of Yunxi's words in his mind startled Shi An for a moment, but he quickly recovered and explained telepathically, "Fire Kingdom!"

"It turns out to be her!"

Although Shi An's answer was somewhat ambiguous, Yun Xi still understood what he meant, and at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little amazed at how small the world was.

She thought that the upper realm was so vast that she and Shi An would hardly ever encounter old friends from the lower realm again. But who would have thought that in just one or two years, they would run into several old friends in succession.

While pondering, Yunxi suddenly stood up and walked towards the woman in the red dress.

"Xiao Xi?"

Yunxi's actions were somewhat sudden, causing Shi An to be slightly taken aback. However, when he saw the look Yunxi gave him, he immediately understood that she was fulfilling her duty as the eldest sister-in-law and going to reunite with the other party on his behalf.

Yun Xi moved gracefully, a gentle smile on her face, slowly approaching the woman in the red dress. Her figure was elegant, her temperament ethereal, and every step she took seemed to touch the hearts of everyone around her, drawing the attention of many.

The woman in the red dress had a slender figure and cascading black hair. She was gazing at Shi Hao, who was engaged in fierce combat on the high platform. The crimson phoenix pendant on her earlobe swayed gently with her movements, complementing the crimson mark between her brows.

Soon, the woman in the red dress seemed to notice Yun Xi's approach, and turned her head slightly, her beautiful eyes filled with a mixture of wariness and curiosity.

"Fellow Daoist, do you know about this unruly child?"

Yunxi walked lightly to the side of the woman in the red dress, her voice as melodious as a clear spring.

"A brat?!"

Upon hearing Yun Xi utter the words "brat," the woman in the red dress's pupils visibly contracted, and her vigilance intensified. However, she quickly lowered her guard, because...
"Ling'er, it's been a long time. I never imagined that we would meet again at this time after parting at Tian Shen Mountain."

Yunxi smiled and secretly transmitted her voice.

"It's you?!"

As soon as Yunxi finished speaking, the woman in the red dress was filled with surprise. After looking her up and down, she looked at Shi An, who had just been standing with her, and instantly understood.

"boom!"

Just then, a sudden change occurred on the high platform. All the chains of order burst into flames, turning golden and binding Shi Hao tightly.

"Hao!"

This unexpected turn of events caused the woman in the red dress, Huo Ling'er, to instantly lose her desire to talk to Yun Xi. She stared nervously at Shi Hao on the stage, fearing that something might happen to him.

"What a strong aura!"

In fact, it wasn't just Huo Ling'er; everyone else seemed very nervous because the powerful aura on stage made them feel short of breath and their chests tight, even from a distance.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out, and everyone present involuntarily shuddered. The golden divine chain approached inch by inch, and finally cut directly into Shi Hao's flesh, as if it would cut him into several pieces.

In an instant, the chains of Dharma clanged, divine light swirled, Daoist sounds boomed, and sparks flew in all directions.

Everyone understood that Shi Hao was in trouble. If he couldn't break the spell in time, he might even have his body severed by the divine chains, staining the Heavenly Ladder with blood.

"Crack!"

But in the next moment, all the chains on the platform suddenly broke, shattered by Shi Hao, and turned into streams of light that scattered in all directions.

At this moment, he was like a demon god reborn from the ashes, his body surrounded by divine flames, all of which were runes that shot straight into the sky.

"when!"

The sixth bell rang out, its sound echoing throughout the Tianxian Academy.

At this moment, even the students who didn't know what the bell meant looked up, feeling astonished, and prepared to see what had happened.

Chaos erupted in the market, with many people gaping in astonishment, finding it utterly unbelievable.

"Could today be the day we witness the birth of a legend?"

"Very likely, after all, he's already on the sixth level, and there are only three more to go before he succeeds."

"Unbelievable! The ladder to heaven that no one has been able to traverse for so long is about to be conquered!"

"If he succeeds, he will surely be recorded in the annals of the Celestial Academy!"

"Not necessarily. I heard that Feng Wu also passed the test, but the Dao Bell was blocked by a powerful figure, preventing it from making a sound and thus avoiding any fanfare."

The crowd was buzzing with excitement and exhilaration. Of course, there were also quite a few jealous people whose expressions were complicated. They couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety as they recalled their previous attacks on the other party.
