I Am Overlord

Chapter 559: Di Lin and Xia Yunxi

"Li Li, primary-grade eight-star physique, core disciple," announced the overseer.

Li Li was a woman of an extraordinary temperament. She was in her early twenties, yet her draconic aura was already about 70 percent complete. She attracted the attention of many elders, who then attempted to take her as a personal disciple. After all, even in the Dragon Phoenix Academy, an eight-star physique was still rather rare.

Subsequently, a few more seven-star physique holders appeared. They were also accepted by the various elders as personal disciples. Of course, some unique six-star physique holders were also made core disciples. From this, it was obvious one had to either possess at least a mid-grade seven-star physique or a unique physique to qualify as a core disciple.

Xiang Shaoyun and company felt their horizons expanding as they watched the assessment. Of course, the people currently taking the assessment weren't too special. Toward the end, the special-recruit disciples would be the ones that would cause a commotion with their physiques.

"Shaoyun, as a special-recruit, you are destined to be a core disciple. So what physique do you have exactly?" Ning Wenhuang asked curiously. During the second round of the test, she had reached the top of the stairs toward the end of the allotted time period, officially becoming a disciple of the Dragon Phoenix Academy as well.

Xiang Shaoyun rubbed his nose and said, "You'll know after I take my assessment."

His physique was a tad bit too special. He was afraid she would think he was showing off if he told her straight away.

"My guess is an eight-star physique. Otherwise, your combat prowess wouldn't be so scary," said Tang Longfei with a smile. He then sighed, "I have a barely seven-star physique. I reckon I can only be a regular disciple."

"Big Brother Tang, physique only decides one's talent. True strength comes from hard work, and only through hard work will one be able to reach the summit," said Xiang Shaoyun.

"Haha, I know that well. In the entirety of the dominion, a seven-star physique is already considered an upper-tier physique. I won't look down on myself," said Tang Longfei cheerily.

They continued chatting idly as a few more eight-star physique holders appeared. Two of them were even a pair of twin sisters. One was He Yuyuan while the other was He Ziyuan. Both of them were also remarkable beauties. The looks of the twin sisters stirred the lust of many men present, giving them an intense desire to conquer the two women. The dream of wrapping an arm each around a pair of beautiful twin sisters proved fatal to these young men.

Before long, it was the turns of Tang Longfei, Ning Wenhuang, and Lady Shura to take their assessment. Tang Longfei possessed a primary-grade seven-star physique, while Ning Wenhuang possessed a high-grade six-star physique. Both of them could only become regular disciples.

As for Lady Shura, she had an excellent high-grade seven-star physique, causing both Tang Longfei and Ning Wenhuang to be shocked and envious. They had never imagined that this masked woman actually had such an excellent physique. But when they recalled how she was Xiang Shaoyun's woman, they became less surprised.

In a flash, two days passed.

During this period, astral projections appeared without stop in the sky, illuminating the area in a festival of lights. Such a scene lived up to a recruitment exam that would only be held every 100 years.

Among the 20,000 new disciples, about 100 eight-star physiques had appeared. Additionally, about 300 unique physiques had appeared as well. As for the rest, they were basically either six-star or seven-star physiques. Very few of them had physiques below six-star.

For those with physiques below six-star, they were mostly those who had stumbled upon some fortuitous encounters to obtain the strength they had now, or those with some unique energies in their bodies. However, the academy wasn't really optimistic about their futures.

As for nine-star physiques, none had appeared so far. Xiang Shaoyun had also learned that Di Tong had a high-grade seven-star physique. That was quite a decent physique. Even so, in his eyes, Di Tong was still worthless. He was only curious about Di Lin's physique.

Finally, it was time for the special-recruit disciples to take their assessment. The special-recruit disciples were basically guaranteed to be core disciples. The only reason they were assessed was so the elders could pick their personal disciples from them. Of course, the assessment also served as a way to see which of these special-recruit disciples would have brighter futures.

At this time, Shou Xie appeared beside Xiang Shaoyun as they lined up together. He said, "I knew you would have no problem getting through the test."

Facing Shou Xie the socializer, Xiang Shaoyun smiled and asked, "I thought you were a special-recruit? Why are you here?"

"I'm just going through the motions. In any case, I won't be disqualified from this," said Shou Xie with a smile. "By the way, I managed to get to know a few geniuses with unique abilities. I'll introduce them to you later."

"Sure," Xiang Shaoyun answered.

"So are you going to teach me the devil taming technique or not?" Shou Xie asked as he rubbed his palms.

"I'm telling the truth. I really don't know something like that," said Xiang Shaoyun seriously.

When Shou Xie saw how serious Xiang Shaoyun was, his face dimmed as he said, "Looks like you're telling the truth. Well, I will have to search the academy for one, then. I think they will have something like that."

Xiang Shaoyun nodded and did not say anything else. Prior to this, he had made a new friend, Huo Xudong, who eventually betrayed him. Thus, he had been rather cold toward the friendliness Shou Xie showed.

Now that they were all within the Dragon Phoenix Academy, he was in a much better mental state than before. Thus, his attitude toward Shou Xie had also warmed somewhat. Suddenly, he found that Huo Xudong was also one of the special-recruits. He was even walking beside Di Lin.

At the sight of that, the fury within him started raging. The two people who had betrayed him had actually appeared before him. He had the urge to kill them immediately. Apart from the two, he also saw a beauty, a remarkable and eye-catching beauty who was walking alongside Di Lin.

Her long hair gently drifted about, her robe exquisite and bright, her waistline slender, her chest and rear bountiful, her bearing graceful and noble. She was akin to a peacock with its tail spread, and exuded a sense of cold beauty. Walking side by side, Di Lin and the woman were akin to a match made in heaven, attracting attention wherever they went.

"Di Lin! Xia Yunxi!" Xiang Shaoyun clenched his teeth in fury.

The two sensed his gaze and looked over at the same time. The woman beside Di Lin trembled slightly as her eyes rippled with emotions. At this time, Di Lin's arm wrapped around her waist as the corners of his lips curled up, "Ah, your former lover. We should go say hi."

Then, he dragged the woman along as he approached Xiang Shaoyun, ignoring whether the woman was actually willing to do so or not.

"It has been a while. You're still alive? That's amazing!" said Di Lin with a sneer laced with contempt on his face.

Xia Yunxi gazed at Xiang Shaoyun with mixed looks on her face before saying, "It has been a while."
