Chapter 5186: I Was Nominated by Everyone

Star Academy, Main Hall.

At this moment, the Master of Star Academy and several Grand Elders were present.

"Hahaha… Young Friend Xiao, how do you find our Star Academy's Heavenly Pool?" the Master of Star Academy asked with a laugh.

"Not bad, not bad at all. It's excellent." Xiao Fan nodded repeatedly, full of praise for the Star Academy's Heavenly Pool.

"Of course! Our Star Academy's Heavenly Pool was formed from a wisp of Dragon Qi that appeared when Kongchen Holy Land was first established and the world was split open. Other major powers are envious of it," one of the Star Academy's Grand Elders chuckled.

"Hehehe… stay humble," the Master of Star Academy said with a smile.

Though he spoke of humility, the Master of Star Academy could not hide his smile.

Xiao Fan naturally saw through the other party's thoughts; they simply wanted to curry favor with him.

He had produced Holy Ancestor Kongchen's Token, proving that he definitely had a connection with the Holy Ancestor.

The people of Star Academy didn't know his background, but they knew being respectful certainly wouldn't be a mistake.

Star Academy held nothing back from Xiao Fan and his group, allowing Xiao Fan, Ye Miaoyin, Xiao Xuan, and Xiao Qing to gain immense benefits.

Especially Ye Miaoyin; thanks to the Star Academy's Heavenly Pool, she was able to temporarily suppress her restless Power of the Immortal Seal.

Just as they were chatting and laughing, they suddenly felt several auras approaching.

The Master of Star Academy, Xiao Fan, and the others were all momentarily taken aback.

Immediately after, they heard Zhou Cheng's shout.

"Star Academy Godchild Zhou Cheng! Requests an audience!"

Hearing this, the Master of Star Academy, Xiao Fan, and the others were all surprised, wondering why Zhou Cheng had come out of the blue.

Soon, an Elder of the Star Academy brought Zhou Cheng into the hall.

Following behind Zhou Cheng were a hundred Star Academy Disciples. These hundred Disciples were the top hundred prodigies of the academy, enjoying Elder-level treatment within its walls.

"Zhou Cheng, what are you doing here?" the Master of Star Academy asked, surprised.

Zhou Cheng cupped his fists, glanced at Xiao Fan, and spoke in a deep voice: "Master! Originally, I didn't want to come! But… all the Disciples of our Star Academy have petitioned! They hope I can represent everyone and come here to ask the Master a few things."

"What things? Speak!" the Master of Star Academy said with a cold face and a deep voice.

Zhou Cheng's attitude was firm as he looked at the Master of Star Academy: "The first thing! Why is it that recently, the Disciples of my Star Academy can no longer enter the academy's Sacred Lands of Opportunity!"

After Xiao Fan arrived at Star Academy, the Master had directly ordered all Sacred Lands of Opportunity to be sealed, with the reopening date uncertain.

Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, the Master of Star Academy spoke solemnly: "And then? You came here just to say this?!"

"Exactly!" Zhou Cheng nodded. "Because of this matter, the Disciples of our Star Academy are in a state of panic!"

"In a state of panic? Hehehe… just because of this?" the Master of Star Academy sneered.

The Master of Star Academy knew Zhou Cheng's character, but due to the other's status, he sometimes had to turn a blind eye.

As a result, Zhou Cheng had actually brought Disciples to the hall to question him, the Master.

How could the Master of Star Academy not be angry?!

"That's right! Master! Right now, the Disciples of our Star Academy are very worried!"

"Worried about what?!"

"Hehe… naturally…" Zhou Cheng looked at Xiao Fan and spoke in a low voice, "Worried that our academy is inviting a wolf into the house, and that Star Academy will no longer be Star Academy afterward."

Xiao Fan: "…"

Xiao Fan glanced at Zhou Cheng, shook his head in disdain, and took a sip of his tea.

Xiao Fan had seen firsthand what kind of character Zhou Cheng had.

For Star Academy to have a Godchild like Zhou Cheng was truly a misfortune for the institution.

Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, the hundred Star Academy prodigies looked at each other and cupped their fists one after another.

"Master! Senior Brother Zhou Cheng is right!"

"That's right! Master! Senior Brother Zhou is correct!"

"Exactly! Xiao Fan hasn't even joined our Star Academy yet, and already our treatment has… If he joins later, won't we in Star Academy be…"

"…"

In the hall, various voices continued as the hundred Star Academy Disciples expressed their dissatisfaction.

Hearing this, several Grand Elders were enraged. The Master of Star Academy's face turned ashen as he looked coldly at Zhou Cheng: "Did you incite this?!"

"No!" Zhou Cheng shook his head and spoke in a deep voice: "I was nominated by everyone! That is why I came! I represent all the Disciples of Star Academy!"

The Master of Star Academy would not believe Zhou Cheng's words.

Even if it were a genuine misunderstanding, he wouldn't believe Zhou Cheng.

But one thing was certain: Zhou Cheng's status in Star Academy was very high and his influence was great; at the very least, the majority of the Disciples supported him.

This had a lot to do with Zhou Cheng's usual style of dealing with people.

"You… then let me tell you now! Young Friend Xiao is not going to join my Star Academy. Are you satisfied? He is merely here as a guest," the Master of Star Academy said in a low voice.

If Xiao Fan and his group weren't present, the Master of Star Academy certainly wouldn't have let Zhou Cheng off easily.

But for now, he couldn't lose face in front of outsiders. He planned to settle the score with Zhou Cheng properly after Xiao Fan and the others left.
