Who was Tang San?
The protagonist of Douluo Dalu, his talent naturally being in the super grade or above. Maybe in the supreme grade like Lin Dong!
He can naturally become a specially recruited student.
The reason why Luo Tian separated from him was also for the sake of insurance.
Was the Hai family still closely watching him?
Luo Tian didn’t know.
Hai Yulong’s death would definitely stimulate the Hai family. So if the Hai family was still biting him and refusing to let go, then Tang San would be in a very dangerous situation by following him.
If he were to be killed by the Hai family, Tang San and Lin Dong could still survive on their own. With their talent and aptitude, he believed that avenging him would definitely be more than enough. This was also a backup plan for Luo Tian. These protagonists in the novels had to be used well. They would all be absolute powerhouses in this world in the future, as long as they survive.
After the two separated, Luo Tian walked around Misty Cloud City.
Speaking of Misty Cloud City, it was a bit terrifyingly large.
As one of the five major cities in the Ancient World, it was extremely majestic.
Moreover, there were four ancient divine statues around Misty Cloud City. These statues seemed to swallow the moon and spit out the sun. They seemed ordinary, but once approached, they inspired awe. It was rumored that this was a four-sided formation refined by an ancient powerhouse, and it would activate once Misty Cloud City was in great danger.
At that time, even powerhouses in the Honorable Emperor realm wouldn’t be able to break through.
No one has verified whether it was true or not, though.
But no one would dare to launch an attack on Misty Cloud City. It was known that Misty Cloud City was not only a holy city for orthodox sects but also a gathering place for experts and powerhouses. The major king forces of the Central Continent were also in the city, as well as the Misty Cloud Academy, which was famous throughout the world. If you wanted to attack Misty Cloud City, you had to first see if you had the appropriate strength.
After walking into the city, Luo Tian looked left and right like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Everything felt new and unfamiliar.
When people saw Luo Tian’s demeanor, they showed a contemptuous expression, “He looks like a country bumpkin.”
“Definitely someone from the countryside!”
Luo Tian ignored those comments.
It was almost noon right now and his stomach was rumbling with hunger. Upon seeing a nearby restaurant, Luo Tian walked straight in.
He ordered a table full of good dishes and started eating heartily.
The shop assistant in the restaurant looked at Luo Tian’s attire and whispered to the shopkeeper, “Boss, doesn’t it look like this bumpkin’s here to eat a free meal? Look at the clothes he’s wearing and the way he’s eating. It’s as if he hasn’t eaten anything for months.” ꞦаＮồ𝐁ЕS̈
The shopkeeper narrowed his eyes and his mouth curved into a sneer, “Isn’t the Floating Fragrance Pavilion still short a few male prostitutes? If he really is trying to eat a free meal, then he can prepare to be a male prostitute at the Floating Fragrance Pavilion for the rest of his life.”
Luo Tian didn’t hear their conversation because the moment he stepped into the restaurant, he briefly sent out his spiritual senses and realized that everyone inside, including that shop assistant, had a cultivation base above his own. He was too shocked internally, “Even a shop assistant serving dishes has a cultivation base above mine. Is this holy city a little too terrifying?”
Moreover, he had used his spiritual senses on the people around him after sitting down and immediately attracted many cold and sinister gazes. Fortunately, Luo Tian stopped early; otherwise, trouble would have come knocking again.
“Tomorrow is the last day to register for the second round of assessment at the Misty Cloud Academy.”
“The second round will start the day after tomorrow. I wonder what kind of outstanding geniuses there will be this year? I’m really looking forward to it.”
“Did you guys hear? The Hai family’s second young master was killed. Originally, the Hai family didn’t want to compete for this year’s student quota. But because the second young master was killed, the Hai family suddenly sent all their super talented disciples they had secretly gathered over the years into the second round of the assessment. They all rejected the special admissions route. This move is truly disgusting!”
“They are solving the problem at its root. They’re turning the Misty Cloud Academy into the Hai family’s disciple training base.”
“The Misty Cloud Academy has no countermeasures against the Hai family’s actions. I think next year’s Newcomer King disciple will also be from the Hai family. At that time, the Hai family will have another heaven’s chosen sorcerer. By that time, no force in the Central Continent will be able to suppress the Hai family.”
Luo Tian ate while listening to these discussions.
He didn’t expect the Hai family to suddenly send so many talented disciples to participate in the second round of assessment.
Moreover, most of the disciples who had originally passed the first round of assessment were replaced.
The Hai family had actually obtained the name list, which showed that there were people from the Hai family within the Misty Cloud Academy’s high-level staff. Otherwise, how could the Hai family know about such confidential matters as the list of potential disciples?
Luo Tian wasn’t worried about these things. He was worried about the deadline for registering for the second assessment.
“Tomorrow is the last day…” Luo Tian muttered.
He then said to himself, “It seems that I have to find Bai Xiong and the others earlier today so that I can take the talent test and directly become a specially recruited student. That way, I can enter lazy mode, skip the competition, and avoid the Hai family.”
If he could save trouble, of course, he would save trouble.
。
Luo Tian wasn’t afraid of the Hai family.
He was trying to enter Misty Cloud Academy earlier and find the elder who studied the Soul Poison.
Luo Tian also started thinking, “I wonder where Dongfang Shuo is. I must find him first.”
There were too many things he had to do.
Luo Tian filled his stomach and shouted loudly, “Shop assistant, check please!”
That shop assistant had already been standing behind Luo Tian, afraid that he would run away after eating. Moreover, while Luo Tian was thinking deeply, the shop assistant had already released the aura of the Martial Void 8th rank. As long as Luo Tian dared to run even a little, he would immediately suppress him with his aura and then tie him up and sell him to the Floating Fragrance Courtyard as a male prostitute.
“Dear guest, that will be 137 xuan coins.” The shop assistant smiled faintly.
Luo Tian was momentarily stunned before muttering, “Damn, so expensive.”
One hundred plus xuan coins could last an ordinary family of five for a whole year.
The shop assistant then said, “The dishes you ordered are all famous dishes of our store, so they are naturally more expensive.”
After saying that, the shop assistant grinned coldly before saying in a low voice, “If you can’t afford it, then you shouldn’t have ordered it, you country bumpkin. Why are you pretending to be wealthy in Misty Cloud City? Let’s see if you can take it out. If you dare to be half a coin short, I will teach you a good lesson!”
His voice wasn’t very loud but Luo Tian heard it very clearly. Luo Tian’s face showed his displeasure before deliberately saying, “Shop assistant, I haven’t eaten my fill yet. Bring me another table of the dishes I just ordered.”
The shop assistant’s face immediately changed before saying, “Kid, do you know where you are?!”
Luo Tian sneered and replied, “A restaurant? What? Is this a latrine or something?”
The shop assistant’s face scrunched up before he rolled up his sleeves and coldly snorted, “Damn it, it looks like you’re tired of living! You dare to run wild in our Dongfang family’s restaurant?! If I don’t beat you until you’re looking for your teeth all over the ground, I’ll change my surname to yours!”
Just when the shop assistant looked like he was about to attack, Luo Tian’s gaze darkened as he looked at the shop assistant and asked, “Is this how you treat customers? Are you afraid that I don’t have money?”
The shop assistant sneered and said, “You don’t know how many people like you I see every day. Go and kneel down for me!”
Luo Tian looked over and said, “If you dare make a move, I’m afraid you’ll lose your life!”
