What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

"Is it acceptable to say that you dislike the Chu family?" Bai Qitian asked bluntly.

"I believe you!" Qi Shi'an nodded, but still harbored doubts. The reason sounded reasonable, but it wasn't the real reason for helping him. Perhaps Bai Qitian had other schemes.

"Stop watching, everyone, let's leave!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Bai Qitian God engulfed Chu Qianxie's body in white light, carrying him away in a rainbow.

"Take good care of this 'distinguished guest'!"

Li Yuncong's eyes were glazed over, and his body trembled, because before Bai Qitian left, he had actually transmitted his thoughts to him.

Moreover, Bai Qitian emphasized the words "distinguished guest" very much, as if he were reminding someone of something.

Li Yuncong sighed, "Let's go, I'll take you for a tour of the academy."

"Let's march toward the beautiful Divine Pool!" Qi Shi'an smiled brightly, as if nothing had happened.

Qi Shi'an and his group left one after another, and the area in front of the gate was filled with people before gradually returning to tranquility.

As news of today's events spread, Tianyun Prefecture was shaken!

Several major religions received the news immediately and were all astonished.

The Third Elder emerged from seclusion once more and took in a disciple who was less than ten years old. Moreover, this disciple had successfully passed seven levels of the Heavenly Ladder. If he were not so young, everyone would have assumed that he would have been able to pass the eighth level.

In addition, people have been discussing the fact that Chu Qianxie was defeated in two moves and almost killed.

If it weren't for Bai Qitian's intervention in the end, Chu Qianxie would probably have died on the spot.

Countless people are asking who the person who defeated Chu Qianxie is.

Coincidentally, Tianyun Academy is about to start its grand competition, which has attracted attention from all sides.

In an instant, both invited and uninvited forces flocked to the scene!

Chapter 147 Heavenly God's Killing Intent

"Master, you must do justice for your disciple!"

Inside an ancient and magnificent hall, resplendent with gold and jade carvings, resembling a Taoist abode, a young man knelt and wept, his voice choked with tears.

"Second Elder, you don't know, Qianxie was beaten until he was covered in blood, not a single piece of flesh was intact, and even 98% of his bones were broken. He almost lost his life."

Beside Chu Qianxie was his father, Chu Xiongba, who was kneeling below, weeping and complaining. The entire hall was filled with the cries of the father and son.

"Enough! They're all so useless and cause us so much trouble!"

The Second Elder sat upright on the prayer mat, his eyes gleaming with a captivating light, his divine radiance filling the entire hall with a sacred aura. His gaze was fixed on the father and son below.

Chu Qianxie's heart skipped a beat, and he buried his head even lower, like an ostrich daring not to show his face.

The Second Elder snorted coldly, then flicked his finger.

With a "whoosh," a jade box made of white jade landed in front of Chu Qianxie.

"Tomorrow's competition is a must. You must finish in the top four no matter what. Otherwise, you will have to participate in the Spirit Realm Trial in order to enter the Immortal Ancient Realm."

"Why? My bone talisman is clearly in the top one million." Chu Qianxie suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

"The Third Elder has four disciples. Apart from the newly accepted disciple who is not going, the other three all want to enter the Immortal Ancient Realm, so they also want to try to obtain a bone talisman that allows them to directly enter the Immortal Ancient Realm."

The Second Elder patiently explained, "However, our Heavenly Meteor Academy only has five bone talismans for the top one million. Even if a person with double pupils does nothing, the old dean will still bestow one upon them. The remaining four talismans will have to be contested in the grand competition."

Upon hearing this, Chu Qianxie's eyes lit up, and he said confidently, "As long as those with double pupils don't participate in the competition, apart from that person, no one else can be my match."

"I regret to inform you that the person with double pupils has given his bone talisman to someone else, and he wants to compete with you for those four pieces."

"What?! This is against the rules!"

"Does it matter how someone with double pupils decides to dispose of their belongings?"

The Second Elder suddenly poured cold water on Chu Qianxie's newly ignited flames.

"Given to whom?!"

"Li Yuncong!"

When Chu Qianxie heard this news, it was like a bolt from the blue. Even though he was the third most outstanding student in the academy, there were still two powerful figures standing above him, and it was almost impossible for him to defeat them.

The gap between the top talents behind him is not significant. Now that he is seriously injured, it will be extremely difficult for him to fully recover in a short period of time, making it much more difficult for him to compete for the top four.

If you can't get the bone talisman that allows you to directly enter the Immortal Ancient Realm, you have to go to the Spirit Realm to participate in the selection competition.

At that time, it will be an extremely fierce battle, with tens of thousands of people to be selected from among millions of Venerables to go to the vast no-man's land in a single day, which shows how cruel it will be.

If Tianyunzhou weren't a mid-to-high-tier state, the number of slots might be as pitiful as that of Zuizhou, with only ten thousand.

He couldn't even remember how he got out of the main hall; he was completely distraught.

Meanwhile, deep within the Tianyun Academy, in a Moon-Gazing Pavilion, three people were drinking wine while gazing at the moon.

"Raising a cup to invite the bright moon, we become three with my shadow."

Qi Shi'an's face was ruddy, and he was yelling and dancing while hugging the wine jar, like a drunken little devil having a fit of madness.

"Was he like this before?" Li Yuncong was a little confused. Just a few days ago, he seemed like a master, but now he had turned into a crazy drunkard.

Shi Yi sat to one side, enjoying his leisure time, and said casually, "You'll get used to it."

"However, I still want to thank you for being willing to give me the bone talisman." Li Yuncong's gaze was sincere and eager; his gratitude came from the bottom of his heart, after all, this bone talisman could directly enter the Immortal Ancient Realm.

Shi Yi smiled calmly: "That thing is within my reach, and besides, I also got some useful information. It's a win-win situation."

Two days ago, Li Yuncong and Qi Shi'an suddenly showed up at his door, which really gave him a big fright.

Qi Shi'an's reason for coming here to find him was to hitch a ride to the vast uninhabited area, which left him somewhat helpless.

After being reminded by Qi Shi'an, Li Yuncong made a deal with Shi Yi. In return, Shi Yi gave up a bone talisman and Li Yuncong told him the location of Shi Hao.

For Shi Yi, his cousin, who had once defeated him, was the most important person.

Upon learning that Shi Hao was in the Upper Realm's Sinful State, he wished he could immediately go there to fight him again. Unfortunately, the Immortal Ancient Era was about to open, and his time was running out.

In fact, Qi Shi'an's main idea was to have Shi Yi cause trouble for Chu Qianxie, preventing him from obtaining the bone talisman and allowing him to directly enter the Immortal Ancient Realm.

"Hey, where's your junior brother? Call him over here," Qi Shi'an said drunkenly, hiccuping.

"Why are you looking for him?" Shi Yi asked, puzzled.

"There are some little secrets I need to tell him."

Qi Shi'an had never forgotten his main goals for entering the academy. Entering the no-man's land had been achieved, and the next step was to confirm Luo Shenghang's identity.

"He will also be there for the competition tomorrow. I can arrange opportunities for you two."

Although Shi Yi was puzzled, he still chose to lend a hand, since it wasn't a big deal.

A day later, the Huanglu Bell rang out, shaking the entire academy.

The bell rang, and the competition began.

This is a huge training ground, specially opened up by the former headmaster of Tianyun Academy, with many runes shining brightly.

All the disciples participating in the competition entered the venue, and core disciples such as Shi Yi, Li Yuncong, Chu Qianxie, and Wanyue Fairy were all present.

"A person with double pupils! Why is he here too? Could he be planning to participate as well?"

Everyone was taken aback when they saw Shi Yi appear.

"The competition is about to begin. All contestants, please prepare yourselves."

Someone announced it, and everyone heard it clearly.

Today's grand competition has attracted many forces from Tianyun Prefecture to watch, including deities and even leaders from various ancient sects and aristocratic families.

Everyone wanted to see what kind of outstanding talent the newly accepted disciple of the Third Elder, who was famous throughout the ten states, would be. Last time, he was a person with double pupils.

The first match is against the helpers invited by the core disciples. They will start a free-for-all in the dojo, and only the last one left can win a bye for that disciple.

The helpers will also have the opportunity to enter the first and second floors of the library.

"start!"

With a loud 'boom,' the chaotic energy above the dojo surged, the void twisted and blurred, and finally a huge light curtain appeared, enveloping the dojo.

Hundreds of core disciples' helpers began a fierce battle, a sea of ​​runes engulfed the entire dojo, and magical techniques and treasures flew through the air, bursting with dazzling divine light.

This dojo is very complex, with various patterns that no one can interfere with. In order to prevent casualties, several gods are stationed around the dojo. If anyone is seriously injured, they will immediately take action and pull them out of the battlefield.

"Wow, what a spectacular melee! This is the first time I've ever witnessed one."

Qi Shi'an raised his eyebrows, his face full of amusement.

"Boom!"

The Noble Phantasms clashed, runes soared into the sky, and dozens of people were knocked out of the arena and eliminated the moment the battle began.

"Speaking of which, aren't you going up to join the melee?" Qi Shi'an rested his head on his hands, leaning against the stone railing.

Shi Yi remained indifferent and said calmly, "It's just a bye. Even without it, I can still sweep away all my enemies."

"That's true. I don't think there are many other capable fighters besides you at Tianyun Academy," Qi Shi'an said with a calm smile.

Among the hundreds of core disciples of Tianyun Academy, the most famous are the Seven Immortals of Tianyun and the Double-Pupiled One. The former is somewhat weaker, but has good looks, while the latter is strong enough to overwhelm his peers, making all the other academy disciples unable to hold their heads up.

"Hey, who's that person next to the one with double pupils? I've never seen them before!" someone exclaimed.

At this moment, everyone noticed that there was a person standing shoulder to shoulder with the person with double pupils, talking eloquently, which surprised them.

It should be noted that since arriving at the academy, the person with double pupils has never made friends or talked to anyone, not only because of pride, but also because those people are not qualified.

Chu Qianxie had already seen Qi Shi'an, and kept her distance, but still glared at him fiercely.

This person caused him to lose face, and now rumors are circulating among the core disciples that "Chu Qianxie needs a god's intervention to survive," which infuriates him.

Chu Qianxie secretly vowed in his heart: "I must kill you to vent my hatred!"

"Bai Qi, is that the boy who defeated Chu Qianxie that day?"

A celestial being glanced sideways at the black-clad youth, a hidden killing intent lurking in his eyes. He was a celestial being from the Chu family of Tianyun, and also Chu Qianxie's uncle.

Bai Qitian smiled reservedly, "Hehe, it's just a grudge between juniors, not worth mentioning."

There seems to be another deeper meaning in Bai Qitian's words. He turned a major issue into a conflict between juniors, intentionally preventing other gods from interfering.

But the Heavenly God of the Chu family didn't take the bait, and laughed contemptuously: "A country bumpkin who appeared out of nowhere dared to make the first generation of my Chu family suffer such humiliation. He must be severely punished!"

"What, you want to make a move at the academy?!"

Bai Qitian glanced sideways, his body radiating a faint killing intent. He would never allow anyone to use revenge as an excuse to damage the reputation of Tianyun Academy.

The gods from other factions who came to watch the competition also sat back and watched the battle unfold, calmly observing the chaotic fight in the arena, but their minds were entirely on the high platform.

"I have my own way of getting him out of the academy. At that time, I hope the academy will not interfere in this matter."

The Chu family's Heavenly God stared coldly at the black-clad youth without any attempt to conceal his gaze, for he was a high and mighty Heavenly God, and all those below him were regarded as ants.

Qi Shi'an's senses were incredibly sharp. He looked up at the high platform, where the Heavenly Gods were located. One of the Heavenly Gods was staring directly at him with pure killing intent.

"The Heavenly God of the Chu Family?"

Qi Shi'an felt a chill. He had just entered Tianyun Prefecture and had not offended anyone except Chu Qianxie. The only family that could openly show killing intent towards him was the Chu family.

If looks could kill, the Chu family's Heavenly God would probably have torn him to pieces long ago.

"Heh, there are countless people in the entire Three Thousand Provinces who want to kill me. The little Chu family is still too green."

Qi Shi'an scoffed. The forces he had offended were all top-tier sects, such as the Fire Cloud Cave, the Demon Dragon Sect, and the Western Sect. Which one of them was stronger and had a deeper foundation than the Chu family?

These sects still can't do anything to him, and he doesn't even consider the Chu family a threat.

"This competition is a bit boring. I'd better go back to Wangyue Pavilion for tea. Your junior brother isn't participating anyway, so let him go to Wangyue Pavilion to find me."

After saying this, Qi Shi'an left the competition arena.

Chapter 148 Settling the Karma

The Moon Gazing Pavilion is built against the mountain, surrounded by surging water. A waterfall hangs down, stirring up a misty spray, making the pavilion appear shrouded in clouds and mist. Under the sun, it is colorful and vibrant, like a phoenix in slumber.

Inside the pavilion, there are stone platforms and stone chairs. Neatly arranged tea sets are placed on the stone platforms, and steam rises from a teapot.

"Come out." Qi Shi'an took a sip of tea and called out slowly to a rocky hill.

A rustling sound came from behind the rocky hill, and then a handsome young man emerged. This man was Luo Shenghang.

He was no longer the ragged, black-faced man he once was; now he was a dashing young man, full of heroic spirit.

"Senior brother said it was you who wanted to see me?" Luo Shenghang's eyes were wary as he stood far away from the stone mountain, not approaching the pavilion.
