Chapter 104 Gong Jue vs. Zhang Tao
Under Tang Houdong's increasingly smug gaze, Lin Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead and exhaled: "I didn't expect him to have this kind of preparation. It seems we can no longer hold back."

The words weren't spoken loudly, but they were enough for everyone else to hear, especially Tang Houdong on the stage, who was practically bursting with rage.

"She's already looking like a stray dog, yet she's still spouting nonsense! Flood Dragon, bring her down!"

Upon receiving the order, the dragon's gaze became even more ferocious.

Upon seeing this, Lin Zhao flapped his phoenix wings and his eyes suddenly turned golden.

"Even before my breakthrough, defeating you, this reptile, wouldn't have been impossible. Slaughtering you today would be even easier!"

As golden light shone from between his brows, Lin Zhao's feet moved rapidly, his figure so fast that only afterimages remained. As the sword shadows intertwined, spiritual energy flowed and roared among these afterimages, and faintly, the phantom of a phoenix condensed among them.

The second level of the Undying Golden Body Technique: No Greed!
The second level of the Heavenly Phoenix Steps: Thousand Forms of the Spirit Phoenix!
The dragon's vision blurred, and looking at the afterimages around it, it couldn't distinguish which one was Lin Zhao's true form.

By the time it made a move, the bone sword on its head had already pierced its skull.

Lin Zhao channeled his spiritual energy into the bone sword, accompanied by a burst of fire. The dragon roared and writhed in the air, screaming in agony, but Lin Zhao held the sword firmly in place in its head. The more it moved, the deeper the sword pierced.

Lin Zhao clenched his other fist and punched down, one punch after another, each punch causing a dent in the dragon's head.

Finally, the dragon, created using a special spiritual technique, roared to the sky and transformed into streams of spiritual energy, dissipating on the arena.

Before Tang Houdong could react, Lin Zhao had already flashed in front of him.

"You..." Tang Houdong was naturally unwilling to admit defeat so easily. He mobilized the last of his spiritual energy to fight back, but was knocked to the ground by Lin Zhao's punch.

Then, Lin Zhao swung his sword, and Tang Houdong's breath hitched. At this moment, he truly felt the threat of death. This sword was definitely not something he could withstand in his current state.

Under the threat of death, he screamed, "I surrender!"

Lin Zhao's sword stopped in mid-air, then slowly retracted. She looked at him with a half-smile: "Compared to the way you are now, lying on the ground admitting defeat, I still prefer the way you were unruly yesterday."

Even though he knew Lin Zhao was mocking him, Tang Houdong's heart still skipped a beat when he heard a girl like that say "I like you."

However, this wasn't because he was attracted to her; it was simply a response to Lin Zhao's appearance.

After struggling to get up for a long time, he still glared fiercely at Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao said, "Don't forget to give me 1,000 points."

Tang Houdong angrily punched the air.

But he wasn't the only one who was angry at the scene.
Many people have lost all their savings for marriage by gambling!

These people lamented that gamblers didn't deserve sympathy, and then went home dejectedly.

Zhang Tao watched the scene unfold, his face grim, and remained silent for a long time.

Zhao Jixing observed his expression and dared not utter a sound.

Lin Zhao noticed the gaze from that direction, looked up, and asked Qu Shu, who was standing to the side, "Who is this?"

"The ninth-ranked student in the outer courtyard is said to be a master at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage," Qu Shu said.

Lin Zhao frowned. She could sense the hostility of the ninth-ranked student from the outer courtyard, but with her current strength, she would have to exert all her strength even against someone at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, let alone someone at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core realm.

Zhang Tao stood up, walked towards Lin Zhao, and said with a sly smile, "Junior Sister Lin is truly skilled. I wonder if you would be willing to accept my challenge?"

Lin Zhao was stunned. She had thought that this person would cause her trouble sooner or later, but she did not expect that this person could be so shameless as to challenge her, who was at the Great Perfection of Enlightenment, with the Great Perfection of Golden Core.

Zhang Tao even managed to come up with a plausible excuse: "We're both Qingdai disciples, so I wouldn't be taking advantage of my junior, would I?" Lin Zhao ignored his ulterior motives: "As the ninth person in the Outer Academy, isn't it going too far for you to challenge me, a freshman in the Outer Academy?"

Zhang Tao argued, "The fact that the academy gave you the blue belt means you are qualified, so I am not being unreasonable."

Before Lin Zhao could say anything more, a commotion suddenly broke out not far away.

"Zhang Tao, you've lost all shame, daring to provoke my Gong Jue's people!"

A rather sharp voice came from afar, accompanied by a thin, purplish-blue sword.

Immediately afterwards, a hot young woman appeared in everyone's sight.

The woman had a voluptuous chest and long, slender, fair legs. She wore a purple dress with gold trim, resembling a cheongsam with a slit. Her long hair was tied high in a ponytail. She had bright eyes, thin lips, and deep-set features. However, her expression carried a hint of unbridled arrogance and nonchalance, which somewhat obscured the impact of her figure.

However, even Zhang Tao, who was present, did not dare to admire the woman's beauty. Instead, like everyone else, he looked as if he had seen the King of Hell, and his expression was even more disgusting than if he had eaten shit.

"Gong Jue? Weren't you in seclusion?"

Gong Jue raised an eyebrow: "Can't it be a failure in seclusion?"

Sure, why not?

Zhang Tao swallowed his anger and didn't ask any further questions, saying, "That was just a private conflict between me and Junior Sister Lin. Gong Jue, you don't need to get involved, do you?"

Gong Jue recalled her rapier, giving him a shrewish look. "Let's put aside your conflict with Zhao Zhao. We entered the same year, and it's been a long time since we've fought. If you want to fight her, why don't we get to know each other better first?"

Zhang Tao: "..."

He clenched his fists and said to Zhao Jixing with a frustrated expression, "Let's go."

After seeing Zhang Tao off, Gong Jue turned back and rubbed Lin Zhao's face, then buried Lin Zhao's head in his breasts: "My little darling! I've missed you so much!"

Lin was forced to use the facial cleanser and quickly raised her head.

"Thank you very much, Senior Gong."

"Why are you being so polite with me?" Gong Jue waved his hand. "Have you forgotten that you went to a mortal realm with me before?"

Lin Zhao thought for a long time and then shook his head.

"I knew you'd forgotten! I was the one who gave you that nickname, Turtle Grandson Shen! Remember it now?"

Lin Zhao then remembered.

At that time, she went to the mortal realm with Yun Ding Chen Luoluo and her group, as well as Shen Yuhan. On the way, they encountered a spoiled young master from a powerful force.

After being harassed, Chen Luoluo complained to Shen Yuhan. Shen Yuhan went to get revenge but was beaten up instead. Lin Zhao had no choice but to intervene, otherwise the mission could not be carried out.

At the time, the spoiled young master let the two go, but he said to Shen Yuhan, "With a fiancée like this, how could you still be interested in that kind of trash? You really are a coward."

"Yes, I was dressed as a man back then." Seeing that she remembered, Gong Jue patted her shoulder with satisfaction: "You've finally come to your senses and decided to call off the engagement. I ate several extra bowls of rice the day you did!"

Lin Zhao: "..."

"But as it turns out, I was right about you, you're amazing! You won beautifully this time!"
