Battle Through The Heavens Season 5
Ch. 40 - Last Qualifying Competition

Today was destined to be the most lively day in the Jia Nan Academy. This was because the Inner Academy Qualifying Competition, which gathered the gazes of all the disciples, would reach a tidal wave where everyone would be the most excited.

Hu Jia, Bai Shan, Wu Hao, Xun Er, Xiao Yan. These five people, who clearly displayed their strong strength, caused everyone to be shocked during the last two days of the competition. Today, the most glaring clash between the strongest would be revealed among the five outstanding disciples of the Outer Academy in this competition!

It is because of this that the number of people gathered in the stadium today is more than the last two days. Not all of the surrounding spectators were students of the academy. There were many people who came with admiration from Jia Nan City, outside of the academy. As the members living in Jia Nan City, during these many years, they clearly knew that this was the most lively day in the Jia Nan Academy every year. Therefore, they would certainly not miss this special affair.

When Xiao Yan and the others arrived outside the stadium and looked at the human dragon, who had completely blocked the entrance to the stadium, they could not help but feel a little speechless. Finally, they relied on Instructor Ruo Lin's connections to enter the stadium from the heavily guarded side entrance.

After passing through a long dark tunnel, they finally came out of the hole at the end of their vision. The moment they came out, various incomparably noisy sounds suddenly appeared next to their ears, causing the group of Xiao Yan, who had just been in a somewhat quiet environment, to appear, feeling dizzy when their eyes become blurry. A few moments later before they gradually recovered. They raised their heads and looked at the densely packed human crowd around the open ground, and inevitably looked at each other with bitter smiles.

The group moved along the base of the stadium and finally stopped at the Huang class seat they had occupied for the past two days. Only then did they sigh in relief before sitting down.

Xiao Yan, with Xun Er by his side, began to speak with a smile as they sat on the chair. Suddenly, they stopped talking. Their gaze turned to the entrance of a certain special tunnel. At that place, a group of people, like the stars flattering the moon, crowded around Bai Shan in the middle and walked towards them. When he saw Xiao Yan's gaze, a cold smile involuntarily appeared on Bai Shan's handsome face. His mouth moved a little. Even though he did not speak, Xiao Yan could still see the words he spoke.

"I want your reputation to be completely lost today!"

A cold glint flashed across those black and dark eyes. A shallow smile lifted on Xiao Yan's face as he nodded slightly to Bai Shan. His mouth also moved, "I'm waiting for you!"

"Xiao Yan ge-ge, you must be careful if you want to fight with Bai Shan. His character really caused people to dislike him, but for him to be able to stand out in the Jia Nan Academy, a place where talented people were as much as the clouds, it meant that he must have had a frightening achievement in terms of his training talent." Xun Er, who had noticed Xiao Yan, naturally discovered the hidden battle between him and Bai Shan. He immediately gave a gentle reminder.

"Ah." Xiao Yan nodded slightly and did not refute. He did have some hostility and caution towards Bai Shan but that did not mean that it would not cause him to form a disdainful mentality. What Xun Er said was true. If one did not possess some ability, even if you were handsome to the point where you could shake the heavens and move the earth, one would definitely not be able to stand out in this Jia Nan Academy, where strength is respected and from there, become one of the best people in this competition.

Not long after Bai Shan entered the stadium, the red-clothed young lady also slowly walked in. Following his entrance, there were quite a number of people in the stadium who threw their gazes. No matter how one said it, Hu Jia could be considered beautiful. What touched people the most was their background. Vice Principal of the Jia Nan Academy. This position, with monstrous authority, was no weaker than some of the first-rate factions in the continent. Moreover, due to the special position of the Jia Nan Academy, even a few strong Dou Zongs would not dare to appear too arrogant in front of Hu Jia's grandfather. After all, even if one did not mention the countless number of strong people who had come out of the Jia Nan Academy, it was not, just the strength of the Jia Nan Academy on the surface was enough to scare those first-rate factions away until they did not dare to do anything funny.

Many people in the Jia Nan Academy knew that anyone who managed to seduce Hu Jia would not only have a soft fragrant jade (beautiful woman) warm in their arms, but also a beautiful woman, but it would also allow itself to reduce its need to struggle and work hard for at least ten years! Not many doubted these words. After all, the Vice Principal of the Jia Nan Academy, Hu Jia's grandfather, possessed this kind of ability!

Although there were many people who were very interested in this kind of inducement, and there were some people who bragged about being a genius once trying to make contact with Hu Jia, and there were some people who bragged about being a genius once trying to make contact with Hu Jia, not only did these people not manage to obtain the beauty, but they ended up returning with wounds all over their bodies. The red-clothed woman used the fiercest attack to shock all the annoying people who seduced her until no one dared to come and make a fuss. Hence, up until now, no male disciple had managed to snatch the heart of this little Witch.

As Xiao Yan looked at the red-clothed young lady, who was slowly walking into the spectator gallery on the other side, Xiao Yan suddenly recalled Instructor Ruo Lin saying that the woman actually had feelings for Xun Er. His face involuntarily became a little strange. A moment later, he shook his head and muttered, "He is indeed worthy by the name of ‘Little Witch’. Even his taste is amazing." About half an hour after Hu Jia entered the stadium, a number of people in the spectator gallery around the arena had finally been jostled to the point where it seemed like it was about to explode. When one looks at the dense black hair, he will not be able to see the end. The noise gathered and shot straight into the clouds.

"Dong!"

As the sun rose high in the blue sky, the clear sound of a gong finally resounded in the open ground. Hearing the gong, the hustle and bustle of the stadium finally began to quiet down. A countless number of gazes moved towards the sound of gongs, and gazed at the vast arena.

As all the gazes in the stadium gathered into the middle of the open field, Vice School Head Hu Gan slowly stood up. His gaze looked at his surroundings while his powerful voice floated in the air from the open ground, like the sound of soft thunder, "Yesterday, the Inner Academy Qualifying Competition has selected the last fifty people. They all had the qualifications to enter the Inner Academy to train. However, the Inner Academy had a clear separation from the various levels. If one wanted better training conditions within the Inner Academy, he would have to do his best to obtain the best results in this past competition. Each level you climb will give you a lot of help. Therefore, do your best to gain better training status! "

Hu Gan's gaze glanced at the disciples who were trembling with excitement. He smiled and said, "In the past few years, we have chosen competitions where students compete in different rounds. This year, however, after discussions during the Academy Conference, we will enact a slight change in the methods used for the finals of this competition."

"Now, can the fifty best disciples enter the arena." Hu Gan smiled and spoke cheerfully.

Xiao Yan and Xun Er were slightly surprised upon hearing this. 'Fifty people in one arena?'

Although there were many people who did not quite understand Hu Gan's words, a human figure repeatedly flashed from the entire gallery of spectators after his words were spoken. They finally appeared in the arena.

With more and more human figures appearing in the arena, the atmosphere in the spectator gallery instantly became fresher. Especially with the appearance of Bai Shan who was wearing white clothes and appeared very handsome, as well as the figure of a young woman in red, Hu Jia. The atmosphere is elevated to a higher level. Orderly cheers, which were deafening, erupted from the crowd.

"Let's go." As he looked at the human figures scattered throughout the arena, Xiao Yan also laughed softly and stood up with a smile, before speaking to Xun Er who was sitting beside him.

"Do your best!" Beside them, Instructor Ruo Lin waved his fists and smiled as he cheered them on.

"Good." Xun Er smiled and nodded. Both of their bodies jumped and their toes slipped off the guardrail. Two bows cut through the air, created by their bodies. Under the gazes of countless people, they gently landed on the arena.

Following the influx of Xiao Yan and Xun Er, the originally heated atmosphere once again suddenly surged.

"Today, we don't want a competition where you compete one round at a time. Instead, it would be a huge and chaotic elimination competition, one filled with passion and enthusiasm. Those who were able to last longer in this elimination competition would have a higher rank and vice versa." Hu Gan smiled as he said, while observing the many competitors, who had successfully entered the competition arena, "In this arena, no matter what method you use, it is not, even if you join hands with others to form a group, it doesn't matter. As long as you can all protect yourself in this chaotic battle, you will gain victory."

Hu Gan's voice had just sounded when a private conversation rang out in the stadium. Clearly, the different methods of competition this year left them a little off guard.

"Once the competition begins, those who exit the arena will be considered losers. We have people who specifically note down the number. Therefore, as long as you can last a little longer in this chaotic battle, your rank might be higher. Therefore, Survival is victory."

"This kind of elimination method is quite interesting." Xiao Yan's gaze slowly swept over the competitors present while standing beside Xun Er. His gaze finally stopped on Bai Shan, who was standing not too far away, as he smiled and said, "However, if this is the case, we won't be in a big advantage. Since we can join hands, girl, first we'll kick everyone else out."

"Yes." Yeah." Xun Er would naturally not reject Xiao Yan's suggestion as she nodded obediently. His gaze swept across the arena and suddenly said, "Actually, this kind of competition method also has a huge advantage for Bai Shan, Hu Jia, and Wu Hao. All of them had quite a good reputation in the academy. I've seen the competitors in the arena. There were quite a number of people among them who usually interacted with the three of them. Therefore, when the chaotic battle would start later, they might be able to join quite a number of people."

"Uh? I see you also have quite a good reputation in the academy. Don't tell me you can't tie some people up?"

Xun Er skillfully spoke as she heard this, "If this had happened in the past, there would really be people coming to be the messengers protecting the flower. The flower already has an owner. Did anyone else dare to come?"

Xiao Yan's face was dull for a second. He immediately nodded helplessly and said, "Alright, since like this, it seems like we should really rely on each other in this final elimination competition. I think, other than the situation where everyone present combined forces and attacked us, I just want to see who has the ability to get us out of the arena? Bai Shan's? Wu Hao's? Or that Hu Jia?"

Xun Er tilted her head to look at the skinny young man who was carrying a huge black ruler on his back. He then looked at the confidence that was revealed on his gentle and handsome face before he suddenly smiled. He likes the trust in his body.

"Regardless of whether we encounter a terrible wave in front of us, let's attack together." Xun Er's small hand suddenly held Xiao Yan's hand as she muttered softly.
