Battle Through the Heavens: I confronted Xiao Yan, and he begged me to be his elder brother.

Chapter 223 So there's no room for negotiation?

The square at Canaan College was packed with people, and the air was filled with a cacophony of voices.

Today is the college's anniversary.

All teachers and students stopped teaching and practicing. Most of the elders also stopped what they were doing and came to the square to enjoy this day worth celebrating with everyone.

In the square, the trainees stood in neat rows, their smiles radiant.

While the elders were speaking, some of the new students secretly glanced toward the northwest, where a group of tall, imposing figures stood.

These people were wearing uniform clothing with the character "苍" embroidered on the chest.

This is the emblem of the Azure Alliance!

Today, the Cangmeng has become the largest student gang in Canaan Academy, and its overall strength in the Black Corner Region is enough to rank among the top three.

Many of the new students come from the Black Corner Region, and they have all received some form of care from the Azure Alliance.

At the forefront of the Cang Alliance stood a man and a woman, Lin Fang and Xiao Yu, one the vice leader and the other the leader.

Xiao Yu kept her eyes straight ahead and said softly, "Recently, there have been more and more rumors about the Cang Alliance abusing its power. It's time to raise the standards for hiring outsiders."

Lin Fang's expression revealed a hint of bitterness: "Alliance Leader, although those people have a bad reputation, this is a time when we need manpower. With them around, our Cang Alliance can reduce its losses a lot."

The Cang Alliance had always developed step by step, steadily and surely, until some time ago, when Xiao Yu suddenly announced that the Cang Alliance should take over the entire Black Corner Region as soon as possible.

This action made many forces, large and small, in the Black Corner Region feel threatened, so they united to resist the Azure Alliance.

These forces were a mixed bag, and their methods were despicable. Most of the members of the Cang Alliance were students. In the early stages of the battles, they often encountered the other side's treacherous traps, resulting in heavy injuries.

Later, the Cang Alliance relaxed its recruitment criteria and gathered some people from the Black Corner Region to fight poison with poison, which reduced the casualties of the Cang Alliance.

Although the Cang Alliance has specific rules, those people are used to being lazy, and many bad habits have become ingrained. Even with rules in place, they sometimes still make mistakes.

Gradually, negative comments about the Cangmeng intensified.

A hint of helplessness flashed across Xiao Yu's brows, clearly understanding Lin Fang's concerns. She frowned and said, "Then let's raise the punishment even higher, so that those people will keep their mouths shut and their hands off."

Lin Fang nodded.

At this moment, a commotion came from behind, interrupting the elder's speech. Everyone turned around and saw a huge group of figures flying across the sky towards Canaan Academy.

They came with menacing airs, clearly not with good intentions!

Many elders took to the air and stepped forward to meet them, followed closely by Xiao Yu and other members of the Cang Alliance.

At Canaan Academy, below the elders, the strongest fighters are the members of the Cang Alliance, who naturally have the most members and are not afraid of battle.

At the front of the crowd, Elder Su Qian shouted, "Halt! This is Canaan Academy! What do you think you're doing?!"

The crowd stopped; they were dressed in all sorts of colors and had all sorts of different personalities.

An old man stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Canaan Academy? This is the Canaan Academy I'm looking for! Today, you must give us justice, no matter what!"

Elder Su Qian frowned: "Black Skull, what do you mean? Today is Canaan Academy's anniversary. If you continue to act so recklessly, don't blame me for being impolite."

The old man before them was an ancestor of the Black Skull Tomb, who had not shown his face for hundreds of years.

He was once a renowned powerhouse in the Black Corner Region.

Black Skull said coldly, "Let the people from the Azure Alliance come out and speak."

Xiao Yu walked to Elder Su Qian's side and said coldly, "What do you want to say? Speak."

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Black Skull wiped his mouth, his eyes narrowed as he looked them over. "She's a female leader, no less. How can a woman like you be so ruthless, leaving us no way out?"

Xiao Yu's face revealed undisguised disgust: "You have done countless evil deeds, and countless families have been destroyed because of you. Did you ever think of leaving them a way out? Now you're talking to me about these things. Even if there were twice as many of you, I will still say the same thing: from now on, there will only be one voice in the Black Corner Region, and that is the Cang Alliance! If you want to live, then follow the rules of the Cang Alliance. Whatever sins you have committed, then honestly atone for them."

A vicious voice rang out from behind Black Skull, and the eyes of those people were like those of wolves, as if they wished they could tear Xiao Yu to pieces and devour her alive.

Black Skull gestured with his hand, and the sound vanished. He slowly said, "Alliance Leader Xiao Yu, are you absolutely unwilling to offer any room for negotiation?"

Xiao Yu replied without hesitation, "There's no room for discussion!"

Black Skull's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Do you think the Azure Alliance can act with impunity just because it has the backing of Canaan Academy?"

Elder Su Qian stepped forward, blocking Xiao Yu's path and facing Black Skull's gaze directly. He said in a deep voice, "Black Skull, Heaven's sins may be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins are unforgivable. I advise you to think this through carefully."

Two figures suddenly burst out from Canaan Academy, their auras as heavy as mountains and as surging as rivers flowing into the sea, their imposing presence causing all who heard of them to tremble with fear.

Many people behind Black Skull changed their expressions upon sensing the aura of a Dou Zun.

Black Skull remained expressionless: "The two of you from Canaan Academy, Bai and Qian, have not shown yourselves for so many years, yet your strength has improved even further. Congratulations."

Elder Bai waved his sleeve and said coldly, "Black Skull, if you retreat now, you can still save your dog's life."

However, Black Skull showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he smirked and said sarcastically, "Having roamed the Black Corner Region for so many years, do you think I don't know the strength of your Canaan Academy? Without any backing, would I come to Canaan Academy to die?"

Elder Bai's face darkened: "What do you mean?"

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

Black Skull gave a cold laugh, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and bowed to the side, calling out loudly, "Please, Lord Yu!"

Lord Yu?

The students from Canaan Academy looked blank, clearly having never heard of this name before.

Suddenly, everyone raised their chins, looked up, and their expressions became serious.

A vast aura rippled through the heavens and earth, even more intense and concentrated than that of the two elders before them.

"A Dou Sheng level expert!" Elders Bai and Qian exclaimed in unison.

The two of them were the strongest among the group, and they were perfectly clear about the level of this aura.

Looking at the crowd whose expressions had suddenly changed, Black Skull's face was full of savage smiles, and his fierce eyes were fixed on Xiao Yu. He had been annoyed with this woman for a long time. The originally chaotic Black Corner Region had been turned into its current state, causing Black Skull Tomb to miss many opportunities to make money and suffer heavy losses.

Elder Bai gazed at the figure whose face was obscured by battle aura and said respectfully, "Your Excellency, this is a matter for Canaan Academy. I hope you will not interfere."

The figure said indifferently, "Don't try to intimidate me with Canaan Academy. I'm all alone now and have nothing to fear. As long as you hand over everyone from the Cang Alliance, Canaan Academy will remain the same as before."

Elder Su Qian hurriedly said, "Elder Bai, you absolutely must not agree to his conditions, otherwise what will become of the academy's reputation?"

Elder Bai said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency Dou Sheng, the Cang Alliance was founded by students of Canaan Academy."

The man's tone was icy: "So there's no room for negotiation?"

Elder Bai straightened his back and said, "I advise you to think twice before acting, and not to get into trouble for some petty gains."

"How dare a mere Dou Zun teach me how to do things? You're courting death!" The man was furious, and his Dou Qi energy fell like a meteor, surging towards Elder Bai with overwhelming force.

The two elders, Bai and Qian, joined forces to build a defensive barrier.

The next second, the barrier shattered like paper, and the two figures fell straight into the ground below, creating a crater a hundred feet deep.

Panic flickered in Xiao Yu's eyes, but as the leader of an alliance, he managed to remain composed and asked calmly, "The Cang Alliance has no cowards who fear death, but if we die, we must die knowing why! I want to know when the Cang Alliance offended you?"

The man said irritably, "Dead men don't deserve to know these things!"

The next moment, a mocking voice rang out.

"Not worthy? I think it's someone who doesn't dare, you little bird of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan."
