Chapter 594: A Lost Cause

Ye Guan walked away and no one attempted to stop him. It was clear to everyone present that the Divine Academy had abandoned him.

A wave of somber realization swept through the crowd. Initially, they all assumed that the Divine Academy would stand by Ye Guan, given his immense talent and the fact that the conflict was the Wang Clan's fault.

However, the academy had actually decided to abandon Ye Guan, and it made everyone feel a sense of disappointment and loss.

If the academy was willing to abandon Ye Guan, what about them?

Nonetheless, nobody stood up for Ye Guan. His tragedy didn't concern them at all.

On the sidelines, the Left Bishop and the Right Bishop wore uneasy expressions. They had expected the Academy Chief to support Ye Guan. However, it turned out that the Academy Chief had ties with the Wang Clan's God. There was no way he'd offend the Wang Clan for the sake of one student. Ye Guan was a monstrous talent, but he was no match for a god.

The Right Bishop sighed dejectedly. “What a pity.”

Ye Guan was outstanding, and he would definitely become a monstrous supreme elite given enough time. However, they had decided to abandon him, cutting off all opportunities to build ties with him in the future.

The Left Bishop shook his head and said, “We have tried our best. Anyway, we still have three outstanding students in the Divine Courtyard. Yang Xuan and Qing’er are much more talented than Ye Guan. It's fine—”

Suddenly, an elder in divine robes appeared. He delivered shocking news—Yang Xuan and Ye Qing'er had returned their identity plates and left.

“What?!”

The two bishops exclaimed in shock, and they streaked across the skies.

...

Yang Xuan and Ye Qing'er silently trailed behind Ye Guan.

Ye Guan remained oblivious to their presence.

Rumble!

The space ahead of them quivered, and the two bishops emerged from the spacetime rift.

Yang Xuan frowned deeply.

“Why did you leave?” asked the Left Bishop. His quavering voice made it clear that he was panicking. Ye Guan had decided to leave Divine Academy, and if these two were to depart as well, the Divine Academy would be left with just one student from the Divine Courtyard!

Just one!

Who would represent the Divine Academy in the upcoming Mortal Dao Contest? Who would fight for them against the five major clans and the Sin Continent's representatives?

Mo Yaoyao had already made it clear that she would represent the Mo Clan in the contest.

Yang Xuan swept his gaze across the two and asked, "What do you mean?"

The Left Bishop forced a smile, "Everything was going fine, so why did you decide to leave the Divine Academy? Did we do something to offend you?"

"Yes," Yang Xuan answered.

The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop had no idea what to say.

Ye Qing'er was silent.

The Left Bishop hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is it because of Ye Guan?"

After some hesitation, Yang Xuan said, "I understand. This matter has nothing to do with you two, and I have no ill will toward you two whatsoever. However, we no longer wish to stay in the Divine Academy. That's all there is to it."

With that, Yang Xuan pulled Ye Qing'er away to leave.

The Left Bishop hurriedly cried out, "Wait! Wait a moment."

Yang Xuan furrowed his brow, looking slightly displeased.

The Left Bishop said in a deep voice, "Yang Xuan, you can make any demands for us to fulfill. Anything! As long as you're going to stay with us."

“Yes, any demands." The Right Bishop nodded hastily.

Yang Xuan calmly said, "Go and bring that young man back."

The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop stiffened.

Disappointed, Yang Xuan shook his head and led Ye Qing'er away. The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop revealed bitter expressions, realizing that there was no point in trying to persuade them any further. They would only be humiliating themselves if they were to do so.

The Right Bishop's face was pale as he sighed. “What a loss.”

“Indeed...” the Left Bishop agreed in a solemn tone. They had been eagerly waiting to participate in the Mortal Dao Contest, as it was the first time the Divine Courtyard had five students at once. Now, they were only left with one, and she would eventually return to her clan to represent them in the contest.

In other words, the Divine Academy no longer had any Divine Courtyard students.

"Curse the ancestors of the Wang Clan!" the Right Bishop cursed under his breath.

The Left Bishop's expression remained stiff as he muttered, "Curse them..."

...

Ye Guan traveled on his sword across the starry sky, and he was heading toward the First God Paradise.

He wasn't particularly afraid of the Wang Clan; he wasn't afraid of fighting them as long as he wasn't going to fight the entire clan at the same time. In addition, he still had powerful individuals inside of him, which were Ye An, Ao Qianqian, and Mu Yuan.

However, he needed some time. He had lost against the man in the white robes, but he had profited a lot from that encounter. His sword intent had improved drastically just from that one encounter.

It was a pity that he had forgotten to ask for that man's name!

Ye Guan sighed inwardly, feeling a bit regretful.

Swoosh!

Ye An suddenly appeared not too far away from Ye Guan.

"You left the Divine Academy?" asked Ye Guan.

Ye Guan nodded. "Are you mad that I didn't ask for your opinion?"

Ye An stared at Ye Guan without speaking.

Ye Guan chuckled and said, "Big Sis, you're not angry, right? We're siblings, after all. We share both blessings and misfortunes."

Ye An glared at Ye Guan and chided, "Stop the sweet talk. Let's spar."

Ye Guan was puzzled. "Spar?"

Ye An nodded.

"Your sword dao has just improved, right? Well, I've gotten stronger, too. Come, let's spar."

Ye An wasted no time and transformed into a beam of spear light. The moment she got close enough to Ye Guan, she thrust her spear forward. It was a simple attack, but it was swift, precise, and deadly.

Ye Guan dared not to be careless and immediately drew his sword to meet her spear.

Boom!

The tranquil starry sky was disturbed by a deafening explosion.

On the sidelines, Yang Xuan and Ye Qing'er watched as the two siblings sparred. A gentle smile tugged at Yang Xuan's lips, and he found himself inexplicably drawn to the two before him.

Yang Xuan glanced at the lady wearing a plain skirt next to him and shook his head. He knew that Qing'er knew the answers to many of his questions, but she would never tell him the answers to his burning questions for now.

However, he also knew that she'd definitely answer him if he were to force her. Of course, Yang Xuan had chosen not to do so. After all, he knew that Qing'er would definitely share everything with him if she was willing. Otherwise, Yang Xuan had to respect her decision.

The intense duel between the siblings raged on.

Ye Guan's swordplay remained pure and precise, devoid of any bloodline power. Astonishingly, Ye An's spear arts were pure and precise as well and were also devoid of any bloodline power.

BOOM!

A thunderous boom echoed, and both siblings were forced to retreat thousands of meters away. After coming to a halt, Ye An steadied herself before launching her spear toward Ye Guan.

The air crackled as the spear sliced through space and made a beeline for Ye Guan.

Ye Guan remained calm and thrust his sword toward the oncoming spear. A barely visible sword light was at the tip of his sword.

Clang!

The sword pinned the spear to the ground, but Ye An vanished and reappeared above Ye Guan. Before Ye Guan could react, Ye An lashed out with a kick.

Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed, but he remained calm. Twisting his left hand, he conjured a sword from sword energy and swung it toward Ye An's foot, blocking the kick with ease.

Their clash shattered the fabric of spacetime around them.

Ye An swiftly grabbed her spear and swung it horizontally, forcing Ye Guan to block the blow with his sword.

Bang!

Ye Guan's sword light shattered, and he was forced to retreat at least a hundred meters away. Before he could steady himself, Ye An was already running toward him. Her spear sliced through the air, creating a myriad of spear lights that rained down on Ye Guan.

Left without any choices, Ye Guan swung his sword frantically to defend himself against the rain of spear lights, but he was being completely suppressed.

Yang Xuan's eyes widened in astonishment. "That girl's strength..."

Before he could finish his thought, a formidable sword intent erupted from Ye Guan, sending Ye An flying backward.

The Invincible Sword Intent had manifested!

Rumble!

Ye Guan turned the tables around and rushed forward, unleashing a relentless barrage of sword strikes enhanced by his Invincible Sword Intent.

Ye An couldn't do anything against the powerful sword lights and had no choice but to keep defending herself. The siblings battled fiercely, exchanging hundreds of moves in the blink of an eye. The cacophonous din from their duel had pervaded the starry sky, shattering its silence.

Yang Xuan stared at them with awe in his eyes. "How exceptional... I wonder who their parents are...”

The plain-skirt lady pursed her lips and smiled briefly.

BOOM!

A resounding explosion echoed as both siblings were forced away from each other.

Ye Guan glanced at his somewhat numb arm and chuckled. "How refreshing!"

They were evenly matched, so the fight felt amazing for him.

Ye An stared at Ye Guan without saying a word, but she was feeling the same emotions as the latter.

The siblings then chose to stop right there, as they'd have to go all out for their duel to have any meaning by then. In fact, it would no longer be a duel but a battle to the death.

Ye Guan took a deep breath. He opened his palm, and the Invincible Sword Intent enveloped his hand. Ye Guan's heart was filled with joy at the sight; he had just discovered that his Invincible Sword Intent had unexpectedly become much stronger after the duel.

Is it a sword intent that grows the more I fight? Ye Guan laughed heartily. It'd be great if that was the case.

Ye An glanced at the Invincible Sword Intent shrouding Ye Guan's hand. She was about to say something when the siblings both turned their heads in unison. The distant starry skies quivered, and a wave of powerful auras swept toward them.

The two siblings frowned.

Yang Xuan hiding in the shadows cast a cold gaze at the commotion.
