Fatty snorted, "Long Yu is so arrogant."

Two disciples at the fourth level of Xiantian Stage beside Zhang Yan discussed with each other, "I think Long Yu must take the first this time. He is the chief disciple of outer court. Who can be stronger than him?"

Another disciple said, "I don't think so. Besides Hong Yuan and Qin Hao, is there an outer court disciple named Zhang Yan? It's said that he hit the deputy leader of Green Gang and fought with Long Yu to a draw. Zhang Yan may be a dark horse."

"I also heard about Zhang Yan. Is he really so powerful? I think it is probably misinformation. How could a newcomer be so strong?"

Without interjecting, Fatty just snickered and said to Zhang Yan in a low voice, "Big brother, they are talking about your and Long Yu. They don't believe you and Long Yu fought to a draw. Don't you acknowledge your identity and accept worship?"

Zhang Yan just said with a smile, "Fine, it's wise to keep a low profile. They can discuss if they want. After all, I will compete with Long Yu one month later and we'll see who is stronger."

While they were talking, Hong Yuan walked to the hall from a distance. The crowd began to sway and struggle again and the cheers even drowned that when Long Yu appeared, which showed Hong Yuan boasted higher prestige than Long Yu in outer court disciples' hearts.

Then a young man with a cool face came in a distance, but this time nobody applauded. They seemed to be afraid of him, making way for him and trying to stay away. When he came to the front, there wasn't anyone standing within one meter away from him. No one dare to step forward.

Zhang Yan asked Fatty in confusion, "Who is he? He is young but his manner is intolerably aggressive."

Fatty smiled, "He is Qin Hao, the youngest disciple in outer court. He's fourteen, as one of the three superior masters of outer court, he is talented and strong. But he is cold and unsociable, so the disciples, over time, remain aloof from him in order not to be uneasy."

As Fatty was speaking, shaking applause echoed through the palace again.

All male disciples were thrilled and they cried loudly, "Qin Shiyan, Qin Shiyan."

Fatty's small eyes lit up suddenly. He immediately joined them and shouted, "Qin Shiyan."

Zhang Yan looked into the distance wonderingly and found two women coming here. The petite one in green looked pretty and mischievous.

The other woman wore a white slinky dress which added great charm to her slender figure. Her straight and white legs under the skirt were not fat or thin and they were just perfect.

She was Qin Shiyan while the woman in green was her sister, Qinger.

Qin Shiyan walked to the stands lightly like a white lotus flower of chasteness and nobility.

On seeing Qin Shiyan coming, Zhang Yan, with a guilty conscience, thrust into the crowd at once. He tried to crouch down and hide himself.

Fatty found all people shouting with excitement except Zhang Yan, so he said in confusion, "Qin Shiyan is the most beautiful woman in Qingyuan School. Why are you so calm? Are you fond of men rather than pretty girls?"

"Screw you! My sexual orientation is fine," Zhang Yan patted Fatty and said in contempt, "She is pretty indeed, but I'll never love her. Look at you, idiots. Is it useful to shout? No matter how hard you cry, she won't see you. Don't waste your energy."

Qin Shiyan stood in a pigeon-toed pose on the stands and swept the hall with her gaze. When she caught sight of Qin Hao, she smiled at him gently. Surprisingly, the cool young man also responded with a smile.

The surrounding disciples thought Qin Shiyan was smiling at them, the atmosphere became hotted up once again. However, Qin Shiyan didn't find what she wanted and she pouted with disappointment.

"Silence!" A voice sounded and the hall became quiet suddenly. The disciples looked up at the stands and saw dozens of people there.

Most of them on the stands were elders and some were young disciples of inter court. Like Qin Shiyan, they came to watch the exam, but they just stood on the stands which proved their high status.

The leading man was Long Yu's grandfather, the big elder of Qingyuan School. His name was Long Bin. He said in a deep voice, "The exam rule is NO RULE. If you can get out from the fifth storey, you would be an inter court disciple."

"What I need to mention is that our school will award the top five disciples each ten Cloud Spirit Grasses. The first disciple passing the exam will be given a book, Superior Martial Skill of Human Level."

With those words, the main hall went into chaos and everyone could not remain calm.
