Super War God in the City-Chapter 424 - Supreme Ancestor
Ling Fan, bearing down like a bulldozer, smashed stones and knocked down walls. The dean was so battered that his face was a complete mess, and he was almost mentally broken.
"Boom!"
With a thunderous noise, the dean crashed through another wall, completely buried under the rubble, while Ling Fan stood triumphantly in front of the pile of broken stones.
Just now, he had used nearly five hundred thousand pounds of force to completely suppress the dean. To think, his maximum strength was only six hundred thousand pounds.
"Damn, who would have thought the dean had such strong power!" Ling Fan thought secretly.
"But compared to you, he's still far behind, isn't he!" the Holy Princess teased.
"Heh, that's true, compared to me, this guy is far from my level!" Official Ling said unabashedly.
The onlookers were completely silent, petrified, blankly watching the dean disappear beneath the rubble.
"Did he... die?" Wan Long and the other Elders found it hard to swallow, muttering to themselves in shock.
Ling Fan could still sense the dean's breath under the rubble with his Soul Power. He hadn't struck with lethal force; the esteemed dean wasn't so frail as to die that easily.
"Hmph, old man, I know you're not dead. If you disagree, come out quickly, and I'll spare another couple of moves with you!" Ling Fan sneered.
"Boom!"
Another loud sound erupted as rubble flew and dust rose. A disheveled figure burst forth, none other than the previously dignified dean.
Now, the dean was covered in dirt and grime, his face unrecognizable.
The dean looked at Ling Fan with eyes full of shock and wariness, always having prided himself on being unmatched in strength, Body Refinement being his forte.

But never had he anticipated meeting someone whose physical strength completely overwhelmed him, and that person was just a young man barely in his twenties, a revelation hard for him to accept all at once!
The spectators, who were still eager for more excitement, felt like a mix of flavors had been upset within them, constantly oscillating between hope and disappointment, nearly breaking their spirits.
Particularly the new students from the Secular World; their minds were completely scrambled. That was the dean after all, and they couldn't understand how he, who had just been dominating, was suddenly utterly defeated!
Bian Xing's teeth chattered, having earlier relished a brief moment of delight, now his legs trembled, almost wetting himself with fear.
Xiang Hao's eyes bulged, feeling as if his blood had frozen.
"This guy... is he a newbie from the Secular World?" Xiang Hao's expression was incredulous, his body trembling—he believed it as much as he believed in ghosts.
If someone dared to tell him now that Ling Fan was from the Secular World, he'd slap them dead. He now immensely regretted offending Su Qiong and the others!
Zha You wasn't faring any better beside him, having previously gloated the most, he now felt utterly devastated!
Xiang Hao swallowed hard, glancing at Zha You unintentionally. As the saying goes, better him than me—the inevitable fallout would have to be blamed on Zha You just to stay alive!
Qi He and his disciples were utterly silent. Ling Fan beating up the dean had completely overturned their thinking. At Zhongnan Academy, who else could control Ling Fan now?
Su Qiong and Zhou Siyu were similarly overwhelmed, feeling that combination of admiration and joy.
"Hmph, you still want to be my master? Do you think you're qualified? Now, I give you a choice: life or death?" Ling Fan shouted coldly.
He didn't actually intend to kill the dean, but he needed to establish his authority, and the dean, this towering figure, was definitely the best target to assert his dominance.
"However, if the dean doesn't know the best, then he shall be killed!"
The Holy Princess in Ling Fan's Sea of Consciousness quietly watched the scene unfolding outside and nodded slightly. Although a hundred thousand years had passed, Ling Fan still had that familiar aura about him.
For his friends and those around him, he would risk his life and brave any danger, unafraid of power. In his eyes, he never judged a person or made friends based on status or position.
In his eyes, there was no distinction between rich and poor, only genuine feelings that were straightforward and sincere!
The dean, already dazed from the thrashing by Ling Fan, had just regained some consciousness when Ling Fan's cold shout left him fainting again.
"What? Live or die?" The dean truly doubted his ears.
He, the esteemed dean of the Zhongnan Academy, even members of the Five Peaks Noble Houses had to treat him with respect. When had anyone dared to speak to him like this, or threaten his life?
Not only was he stunned, but so were the surrounding academy disciples and elders, their minds buzzing as if struck by thunder, rooted to the spot, unable to think.
"The boss is... just too damn cool, even the Jade Emperor isn't as cool as him!" Fan Zhan's tongue felt a bit stiff.
"I'm talking to you, didn't you hear?" Ling Fan said indifferently, his tone much calmer this round.
However, these words made the dean shiver unconsciously.
"You... you dare to threaten me?" In front of all the students and staff, not only was he beaten up by Ling Fan, but to be threatened and humiliated in public, how could he face anyone?
Today, even if it meant fighting to the death, he couldn't possibly compromise. His status stood apart from that of people like Xiang Hao; dignity wasn't merely a trivial matter in the face of life and death.
But for him, at his status, position, and age, face was more important than life!
If he backed down today, he would live unable to hold his head up, like a walking corpse; what then would be the meaning of his life?
Most importantly, he didn't believe that if he fought Ling Fan with all his might, he wouldn't stand a chance. Didn't everyone have an ace up their sleeve?
"Hmph, arrogant fool. A gentleman may be killed but not insulted. Do you really think just because you are physically stronger, I can do nothing about you?
Although you possess unparalleled talent, you are far too arrogant. Today, I cannot let you leave. If we allow a person of your arrogant character to grow, you will become a curse upon the Martial Arts World!" The dean shouted coldly, his words full of conviction.
No sooner had he spoken than he suddenly produced a long saber in his hand, pointing it obliquely across the sky, exuding immense dominance!
"Fool, take my strike!" The dean roared, ready to attack once more.
Ling Fan's expression darkened slightly, he disdainfully said, "If you won't drink a toast, you'll drink a penalty. I don't pull my punches. If you find yourself in the Underworld later, don't say I didn't warn you!"
Furious, the dean trembled all over; in his long life, he had never suffered such humiliation as he had today!
Just as he was about to erupt, an ancient voice came through, "Who is causing trouble in my Zhongnan, even the dean is no match?"
This voice, like the chant of a Buddhist mantra, echoed through the venue, bringing with it the serene pleasure of morning bells and evening drums.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads in surprise, looking towards the newcomer. They saw an old man with skin like tree bark, shuffling forward.
The surrounding academy disciples looked at each other puzzlingly, none recognizing him. It seemed that no one had ever seen such a figure in the academy!
The dean's body trembled, his rage instantly subsided as he looked towards the approaching elder, stuttering, "Supreme... Supreme Ancestor? Hasn't the Ancestor been in retreat for twenty years? He's actually come out this time?"
