Chapter 69: Tribute Fee

"That was also our intention, but Elder Su said he would send an administrator to deliver the Competition's fire energy to us today, so we wanted to wait here for a while."

Jiang Yanshu had changed into a red suit today, less extravagant and more with a sense of formality, she followed Jia Yun and sat on the other side of Xiao Ming, a fragrance dipped into Xiao Ming's nose as he spoke.

"Oh, you plan to go together?"

Xiao Ming was a little surprised at her words, how come he hadn't seen them in one night, these two women's relationship seemed to have improved a lot, could it be that Elder Su's words had somehow had an effect?

"The two of us are planning to go together, the two of us also have to take care of each other, don't we? As for Bo Pao and Yin Lu, they must think similarly to us, since they didn't say they wanted to go with us to see the Inner Academy."

"No matter what Bo Pao and the other one think, what do you think Xiao Ming, do you want to wait to go together with us?" Jiang Yanshu explained with a smile, then asked rhetorically.

'Shall I join them?'

Lowering his eyes, Xiao Ming drank the tea left in his cup and put it on the table as he stood up.

"Forget it, who knows when the administrator with the fire energy will arrive, I'll leave first."

With that, Xiao Ming waved his hand at them and slowly walked towards the door.

Leaving the pavilion was a tree-lined avenue, and on either side of it were the residences of the other new students this year.

Of course, compared to Xiao Ming's pavilion and the other four, theirs was a bit more modest, so it seemed that this kind of treatment was not available to everyone.

At this time, there were no signs of many of the new students, so it must be because the Fire Energy Hunting Competition had shaken up the new students so much that they did not wake up so early.

Xiao Ming didn't much care whether there were people on the street or not, so he tapped his toes on the ground and his body became a wisp of smoke as he moved toward the end of the avenue.

Almost four or five minutes later, Xiao Ming, who was going at full speed, slowed down and looked toward the end of the avenue, where a group of people had appeared blocking the road.

Xiao Ming frowned, and when he reached the end of the road, he stopped and asked the seven or eight senior students with tower-shaped badges on their chests.

"I wonder what you guys mean by this?"

"Of course it's to receive tribute fees, kid, hurry up and um..."

A rather naive-looking man in black shouted at Xiao Ming very arrogantly and was covered by his own companion just as he was halfway through his shout.

"This guy said nonsense, younger brother Xiao Ming, you can go. You guys, get out of the way!"

"Oh, okay, okay."

The person who spoke seemed to be the leader of the group, and at his command, several senior students rushed to clear a path.

Hmm, a tribute fee?

Xiao Ming looked at the senior student who shouted at him, although he had only said half of his words, he still revealed an important piece of information, the tribute fee.

Xiao Ming still knew a little about the tribute fee, which was paid by new students to senior student factions.

This was considered a tradition of the Jia Nan Academy, wasn't it?

This kind of tradition was not stipulated by the academy, the academy only encouraged competition, this kind of thing must be said to be an unspoken rule that arose on its own with the encouragement of the academy.

Xiao Ming had discovered it a long time ago, and he did not know who had started it, that the senior students of the Outer and Inner Academy liked to train new students.

After the new students were trained by the senior students, in order to balance their minds, when they became senior students, they would also do the same for the new students, and so on.

On one occasion, Xiao Ming was left for a while in the sun outside the tent for the Jia Nan Academy Outer Academy admission tests.

At that time, since there were no immediate interests at stake, he, who did not want to stand out, did nothing to resist.

Even if in the end due to Xiao Shan's babbling and his intention to show off a little he was going to make a move, tutor Ge Hu did not give him the opportunity.

But this time, the tribute fee was different, and if the senior students dared to approach him to request a tribute fee...

Xiao Ming would definitely swell their faces and show them who they could and could not mess with.

He dared to steal fire energy from fifty senior students in the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, how could he suffer this aggravation?

Good thing these senior students were still quite intelligent and did not ask him for the tribute fee, which saved him a lot of effort.

This could not stop Xiao Ming from nodding his head, very satisfied with their attitude.

Without saying anything to these senior students who were about to block the door again, Xiao Ming tapped the ground with his toes and quickly passed through them, and left.

Looking at Xiao Ming's back, the man in black, who looked a little naive, pulled his companion's hand away and asked very quizzically.

"Why did you let that kid go, didn't big brother Lei Yun say that the tribute fee of every new student should be collected in full? Although this person is so young to enter the Inner Academy, his talent should not be bad, but his strength should not be high either, why would we be afraid of him as Dou Grandmasters?"

"You say that because you weren't there yesterday and didn't see the bloody scene where this Xiao Ming defeated Wu Tao and the others alone, otherwise you wouldn't be saying such things." The leader said speechlessly.

"He defeated Wu Tao?"

The man in black was a bit incredulous, Wu Tao had a Dou Spirit level of strength and could be ranked in the upper middle of the entire Inner Academy, he was just defeated by a kid who looked more than ten years younger than them.

He couldn't accept it.

"Not only did he defeat Wu Tao, but he also stole fire energy from all the teams participating in the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, his method was really cruel, now you know why I told them to make way for him."

"That... I got it." The man in black was speechless.

This new student named Xiao Ming could defeat Wu Tao, besides Wu Tao's teammates, no wonder they had to give way to him at this time.

If they did not give way, they may not be enough for Xiao Ming to finish warming up.

Other senior students who were unsure of Xiao Ming's situation heard this and also put Xiao Ming in a position where he should not be provoked.

...

Xiao Ming, who came out of the new student area, casually grabbed a senior student to ask for directions. Although the other party was a little surprised by his age, he still told him the exact location of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.

Knowing the exact location, and thinking about the size of the Inner Academy he had seen yesterday on the hillside, Xiao Ming executed his Dou Technique of movement and headed north.

The Inner Academy was indeed as large as Xiao Ming had expected.

He had been furiously running for almost half an hour, but he had yet to reach the Inner Academy's boundary.

During this half an hour of travel, Xiao Ming had seen the atmosphere of the Inner Academy.

During this trip, he actually saw more than twenty battle circles where they fiercely trained with each other.

Outside these circles, there were also quite a few people watching, apparently already accustomed to it.

This couldn't help but make Xiao Ming sigh a little. 'The Inner Academy's culture is really very intense, although this kind of sparring and frequent fights are not forbidden in the Outer Academy, but unless there are grudges, few people would seek out other people for sparring. '

After sighing a little, Xiao Ming quickened his pace.

Finally, after another ten minutes, Xiao Ming noticed that there were more and more people on their way north.

Those heading in the same direction as him were using all their speed to the extreme, and above the forest, on both sides, there was a constant flash of silhouettes and the sound of the wind breaking.

Seeing this spectacle, Xiao Ming inwardly rejoiced.

This Inner Academy was ridiculously large, and he had actually run for almost fifty minutes even after using his Dou Techniques, but now he had finally arrived.
