A beautiful and alluring middle aged lady was grasping on a small piece of ink scale, within her pair of beautiful pupils was a hint of surprise.

Only after a long while, did she retract her gaze,

“This is Crane Body energy!” The middle aged lady put down the ink scale.

“Crane Body energy?” Han Bing Ning had never heard of that name before.

“En, there are very few people who know about it now.” The middle aged lady muttered: “The Crane Sect started its origins from the Crane Spiritual Master, and today’s Heavenly Crane Constellation, was a constellation that he opened up when he was in Heaven’s Road. The Crane Spiritual Master’s origins are not clear, it’s highly possible that he was a disciple from the ancient Eastern Liu Sect.”

“Heavenly Crane Constellation?” Han Bing Ning was surprised, she had heard of this constellation, but it was a very normal constellation.

“Crane Sect has since lost its true legacy technique, and declined for many years. In the past, Heavenly Crane Constellation’s position, the current generation people can never imagine it.” The middle aged woman was filled with sorrow, and she shook her head and lightly sighed: “Never did I expect to see the legacy technique of Crane Sect here.

She handed the ink scale back to Han Bing Ning, saying: “The Crane Sect’s unique mental cultivation technique is named [Crane-Style Qi Manual], it is difficult to decrypt and understand, and the difficulty in cultivating it is extremely high. [Crane-Style Qi Manual]’s specialty is the Crane Body. Rumour has it, that upon attaining the Crane Body, one’s True Power will turn as penetrating and sharp as a crane’s beak, with powerful destructive strength. Therefore it was also termed as Crane Body Energy. It’s unknown what happened in the middle of the Crane Sect, but it lost its legacy technique, and now no one knows how to cultivate the Crane Body, so I did not expect to actually see it here.”

“So strong?” Han Bing Ning opened wide her beautiful eyes, the Principal’s tone of speech, was filled with praise and admiration, a rarely seen sight.

“Every generation of the Crane Sect, who knows how many of them would try for their whole life to find out how to cultivate the Crane Body.” The middle aged woman said seriously: “The Crane Spiritual Master that year was able to rely on its strength, and create the Heavenly Crane Constellation, how powerful is that! After close to three hundred years, other than the Lion King Lei Ang, who subdued Raging Lionheart and claimed the position of Leo Constellation’s supreme master, who else could complete such magnificent feats? Those who are able to use their own power inside Heaven’s Road to create their own constellation, are all unparalleled martial artists. Their legacy techniques, are the world’s highest level of martial learnings.”

Han Bing Ning opened her cherry lips in shock, stupefied, she felt that the more the principal talked, the more excessive she was.

No matter what she did, she was unable to find a connection between the crude and deranged brat, and those exceptional martial artists from the past.

The middle aged woman mumbled to herself: “He should have only gotten the mental cultivation technique, if not, he would not learn Minute Collapsing Fist. Although Minute Collapsing Fist is inclined to heat control, compared to the Crane Sect’s martial arts, it is still lacking a lot.”

Suddenly, the middle aged woman forgot a question that was neglected for a long time: “Bing Ning, who is the person? Have I been in seclusion for too long? When did Star Wind City actually bring up a genius youth?”

Genius youth….

Han Bing Ning’s mouth trembled slightly, she tried to restrain herself: “It’s Tang Tian from Caramel Academy.”

“Tang Tian?” the middle aged lady shook her head: “I’ve never heard of him, it seems like he is new. Bing Ning, you have to be extremely careful towards this person, you must never let your guard down. Many people are not familiar with the special characteristic of the Crane Body, the prolonged use of qi. it can be sustained for an astonishingly long time. The Crane Qi rise in spirals and continuously.”

Han Bing Ning had yet to reply, and the middle aged lady stood up, muttering to herself: “Seems like I’ve been slacking too much recently. From today onwards, I will oversee all of your cultivation on my own.”

Han Bing Ning was stunned: “There’s no need, Principal. Everyone is working very hard…”

“No way!” the middle aged lady waved her hand and cut off Han Bing Ning; “I have been too lenient lately. I need to set an example and fight in the frontlines!”

Han Bing Ning face turned white. The Principal was the epitome of insanity when it came to cultivation. Once she started cultivating, she would not take a break. If she came to oversee Han Bing Ning’s cultivation, it would be a complete nightmare!

She regretted showing the ink scale.

All because of that darn Tang Tian!

The time passed by quickly, the closer the Star Wind Martial Meet got, the more bustling the city became.

The Star Wind martial Meet was the biggest event of Star Wind City. The people who were attending the Star Wind Martial Meet were not only students and staff from Star Wind’s academies, but also many other foreign martial artists. The Star Wind Martial Meet was not only limited to students. It was a free Martial Meet with attractive prizes. And thus, attracted many foreign martial artists.

There were many martial artists attending the Martial Meet, and so, it only made the Star Wind Martial Meet more attractive, and bustle with even more excitement. Several people from far away cities came down all the way to Star Wind City to observe the Martial Meet.

The number of commuters on the street was higher than usual, almost all the inns were filled to the brim.

The number of martial artists attending this year’s Martial Meet was the highest. On the ropeway for light body techniques outside of the city, one shadow after another used all different kinds of light body techniques to travel back and forth.

“Hey, Old Fart Wei, why did you pull us here so early in the morning? You’re disrupting the amount of time we’ve got to sleep!” Tang Tian walked as he complained. Little Nan Nan sat on his shoulders, eating the snacks with satisfaction.

“Stupid, to attend the preliminary competition.” Old Fart Wei looked at him with slight disdain.

“There’s a preliminary competition at the Star Wind martial meet?” Ah Mo Li was surprised: “Why wasn’t I aware of it?”

“An academy like the Beast Academy obviously don’t need to attend the preliminary competition.” Old Fart Wei stated: “Our situation is not the best, so we got to start with the preliminary competition.”

“Oh, that’s right. We’re amongst the last three of the academies, so we have to start fighting from the preliminary competition.” Ah Mo Li suddenly saw the light.

Old Fart Wei jumped as if he were being stepped on: “Ah Mo Li, did you not have any clue about our academy’s plight? Shouldn’t you be passionate about making a change for the academy by fighting?”

“Fundamental Tang, are you burning with passion?” Ah Mo Li turned his face to Tang Tian and asked.

“I want to sleep.” Tang Tian yawned.

“What have you been doing last night?” Old Fart Wei asked curiously.

“Cultivating Minute Collapsing Fist.” Tang Tian continued to yawn, looking tired.

“Minute Collapsing Fist? I’m looking forward to it! Fundamental Tang, let us fight till our heart’s content! As Qian Hui…” Ah Mo Li raised his blade and shouted.

Bang, a fist crashed from the sky and landed heavily on his head.

Old Fart Wei did not look friendly: “Ah Mo Li, if you lose at the competition today, hehe!”

The sly laughter made Ah Mo Li turn into an obedient child immediately.

When the four of them arrived, they were frightened by the flow of people. The roads were densely packed and it was bustling with activities. Astonishingly loud clamour and rumbling were heard. Tang Tian and Ah Mo Li both looked in daze.

“It’s only the preliminary competition, yet there are already so many people?” Ah Mo Li face was completely shocked.

“Only the seeded players have to start fighting from the preliminary competition.” Old Fart Wei, on contrary, was calm. He took out a piece of paper from his chest and browsed it carefully with his head bowed down. Muttering to himself: “Oh, Ah Mo Li, you’re at plaza number 5267 while young Tang, you’re at plaza number 3897. Understand, do you see the plate? Both of you go and check on your positions at your respective gathering place . These are your proof to attending the competition. Keep it well.”

Old Fart Wei shouted loudly in a higher pitched voice: “Young men! For the grand revival of Caramel Academy, Go battle….”

Tang Tian yawned and turned to walk.

Ah Mo Li looked at Old Fart Wei with sympathy before he turned to look for his competing plaza.

Tang Tian’s eyelids were heavy. If he managed to find a spot of land, he could just fall asleep immediately. Last night, he went through a Cycle of Hardship. Ten days of hardship was all it took for him to be exhausted. In the end, he did not manage to sleep much before he was awaken by Old Fart Wei to attend the preliminary competition.

Nan Nan sat on Tang Tian’s shoulder and looked down. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and grabbed hold of Tang Tian’s hair with her tiny hands. With the other hand, she pointed in the right and yelled: “Big brother, it’s there!”

“Oh.” Tang Tian replied and walked in the direction little Nan Nan pointed to subconsciously.

Plaza number 3897.

The opponents and the judge were not here yet. Without any word, Tang Tian fell asleep. When his head just touched the ground, he started snoring loudly immediately.

“There’s nothing to see at the preliminary competition.” Ming Guang groaned and pouted. He dared not say it loudly.

Big Boss Liang Chiu said he wanted to watch the preliminary competition but Ming guang found it inconceivable. Preliminary competition? What did it have to do with them? They were the chosen ones! Ming Guang held the ninth highest position in Beast Academy. Of course, he did not need to go through the preliminary competition.

In his eyes, the preliminary competition was just a summary of incompetent rascals sparring with one another. The real expert contest was unfolded between the seeded fighters.

This weird suggestion of Liang Qiu only made Tian Lin and Ming Guang felt odd.

Of course, they never thought that Senior Wang Zhen actually agreed wholly. Ming Tian and Ming Guang both looked at each other in dismay, unable to make clear of what was wrong with the two seniors?

However, once the two big bosses spoke up, they could only listen to their orders obediently.

The four lined up and appeared at the plaza. And immediately, there was an uproar. Liang Qiu had a simple temperament, Wang Zhen was honest, Tian Lin was noble and cold and Ming Guang was lively and dashing. The four of them each had their own temperament, yet they had a striking appearance.

“My god! Is something wrong with my eyes? Isn’t that Liang Qiu? He’s my idol!”

“Liang Qiu, Wang Zhen, Tian Lin, Ming Guang, ssssss, must Beast Academy make such a cackle? Amongst their top ten, four actually came? Could it be there is someone amazing attending the preliminary competition?”

“Why would a student from Beast Academy need to attend the preliminary competition?”

The students at the plaza discussed ferociously. These four people were all students of one of Star Wind City’s academies. All of them were experts, and Liang Qiu and Wang Zhen were idolized experts. Many worshipped them.

The students who were participating in the preliminary competition were all ordinary students. When they saw their idols, they were all very agitated.

Yet none of them understood why such experts would come down to watch the preliminary competition?

Star Wind Martial Meet preliminary competition was commonly known as the warm up rounds for black horses, but in reality, it was just the mediocre fighters sparring one another. The true experts with reputations were all chosen as seeded fighters. They all went straight into the main competition.

For those four experts to appear at the preliminary competition was a very odd thing!

Senior Liang Qiu was one of the hottest picks to be crowned victory. Why would he consent to watch the preliminary competition?

There must be some inside story!

Liang Qiu pretended not to see those eyes and said blandly; “I’m going to see Ah Mo Li.”

Wang Zhen nodded: “I’ll watch Tang Tian.”

Tian Lin and Ming Guang looked at each other in dismay. Tian Lin followed Big Boss Liang Qiu while Ming Guang followed Big Boss Wang Zhen.

The four split into two groups and walked in different directions. This change was unexpected. Those students who were not competing all followed behind.

They wanted to see what kind of competition could actually attract these four seeded fighters to come and watch.
