The War of the Three Academies was about to begin, and as the top student of the Beast Flame Inner Courtyard, Zheng Zhuhe had, of course, already arrived.
At his side stood another young figure.
This person exuded an air of nobility and pride, and was someone Lu Chao knew all too well.
He was none other than Lu Hanyang, son of Lu Dingtian.
That's right. The students of the Beast Flame Inner Courtyard, led by Zheng Zhuhe, were currently being hosted by Lu Hanyang, and they had gathered beneath the Blood Stele.
Perhaps it was intentional. Or perhaps, having received news of the Beast Flame Outer Courtyard's arrival, they meant to encounter Lu Chao here...
At that moment, Lu Chao once again felt a familiar, beckoning call from within his body. The sensation came from one of his three Heavenly Destiny Saint Bones: the Fire Roaring Saint Bone. That very Saint Bone now resided within Lu Hanyang.
