Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2816: Chapter 2817: The Thunderous Academy and the Folding Fan Scholar

As soon as the words were spoken, the elite disciples from various academies rushing toward the Skyward Ladder suddenly felt their bodies freeze.

It was as if an invisible force had descended upon their shoulders, forcing their speed to slow down inevitably.

At the same time, a brilliant light flew swiftly from the sky to the crowd in front of them.

Upon seeing the white figure within that light, Tang Xiao gritted her teeth and squeezed out two words from the gap.

"Xue An!"

Indeed!

The person who came was Xue An.

He stood airily in the sky, looking calmly at the diverse expressions of the disciples before him.

Instantly, the crowd became tumultuous.

No matter if it was the academy disciples preparing to ascend the ladder or the onlookers from afar, they were all stirred by Xue An’s sudden arrival.

Many had previously assumed that Xue An probably wasn’t coming.

Yet unexpectedly, he arrived just in the nick of time.

This made many guilty ones among them suddenly change their faces and quietly retreat to the back of the crowd.

This naturally included Mao Cong from the Great Academy.

He dared to clamor earlier only because he felt Xue An wouldn’t show up.

But now that Xue An was indeed present, how could he linger with such little bravery? So he stealthily retreated.

But right then, Shang Hairong suddenly blocked the path, and then gave him a cold smile.

"Why? Didn’t you want to see what kind of person killed your adopted son? Now that Xue is here, why are you running away?"

Mao Cong’s large face revealed panic, and he forced a smile, "I... I was just speaking carelessly. Miss Shang, please don’t take it to heart!"

Shang Hairong showed a look of disdain, snorting coldly, "Get lost!"

Mao Cong felt as if he were granted amnesty and fled hastily.

Shang Hairong didn’t pay him any mind.

Because now she had no time to waste on this Mao Cong; all her attention was focused on the figure standing in the sky.

Actually, not only her, but after the initial panic, everyone present turned their gaze to Xue An.

Because people wanted to know just what extraordinary qualities this young man’s controversial and legendary nature possessed.

At the same time, Xue An turned around to examine the ladder, his lips slightly curling into a hint of a smile.

"Interesting!"

Having said that, Xue An stepped forward, heading straight towards the ladder.

The elite disciples behind him looked at each other, and then someone snorted coldly.

"Kid, you’re quite arrogant. Did you ask others before wanting to be the first to climb the ladder!"

With these words, a figure rushed toward Xue An, moving with considerable force.

However, Xue An didn’t even look back and continued walking forward.

This disregard completely infuriated the speaker, who when within dozens of feet of Xue An, suddenly swung his hand.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, a folding fan in his hand opened, instantly releasing extremely powerful momentum.

Between dazzling flashes of light, the fan swung and directly aimed at Xue An’s back.

Seeing this scene, someone exclaimed in a low voice, "It’s The Thunderous Academy’s fan scholar Tan Kexin!"

Upon hearing this, many people’s faces showed gleeful anticipation.

Because they all knew Tan Kexin.

It’s known that even in Xihua City, The Thunderous Academy is an outstanding academy, and Tan Kexin is a powerhouse cultivated by the academy, hence having significant influence among these academy elites.

Moreover, his arrogant personality and merciless moves have made many fear him.

Now seeing Tan Kexin attack Xue An, many people who were displeased with Xue An couldn’t help but sneer internally.

How dare a fraud be so arrogant, now with someone putting you back in your place, let’s see how you humiliate yourself!

But there were also some who didn’t hold optimistic views regarding Tan Kexin’s attack.

Like Tang Xiao.

Although she wanted more than anyone to see Xue An embarrassed, she knew full well that with the ability Xue An had shown, a mere Tan Kexin was hardly enough to shake a hair on him.

Indeed.

Xue An didn’t even turn around, simply stretched a hand backward.

Tan Kexin, who was attacking with the fan, suddenly had his pupils shrink.

Because he discovered a terrifying fact.

His folding fan seemed to be proactively heading into Xue An’s hand.

This made him secretly shocked, but his movements didn’t stop. With a wrist twist, the fan created an almost impossible angle in mid-air, aiming at Xue An’s side.

This strike was nothing if not cunning.

If it had been someone else, they might have fallen for it on the spot.

But Xue An seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, as without any apparent movement, another hand appeared in the path of Tan Kexin’s attack.

This time Tan Kexin had no chance to change moves and could only grit his teeth, using all his strength to attack.

So, you want to catch my fan with your hand?

Then I’ll smash it directly and see if your hand is harder or my fan is harder!

Tan Kexin thought fiercely.

Bang!

The impact sound was much softer than expected.

At least Tan Kexin was dumbfounded.

But the next second, his stupor turned into terror.

Because in just this brief moment, the folding fan in Tan Kexin’s hand had reached Xue An’s hand.

The entire process caught Tan Kexin completely off guard, not even knowing what had happened.

In reality, not only him, but only a few in the audience saw what had just happened clearly.

Lu Hui, standing on the ancient stone platform, smiled slightly.

He was naturally one of those few.

Just now, Tan Kexin attacked with the fan, yet in that instant of collision, Xue An made a remarkably profound seal decision, directly sealing the power of the fan, and nonchalantly received it into his hand.

The entire process was so fast that even the nearest Tan Kexin only felt a lightness in his hand, and then his signature weapon appeared in Xue An’s hand.

Just as he was infinitely shocked, Xue An twirled the folding fan in one hand, played with it for a moment before suddenly spreading it.

Crack!

After a crisp sound, the fan fully opened, and then Xue An swung the fan, turned to Tan Kexin, who was in shock, and smiled slightly.

"Nice fan, but it’s a bit wasted on you, so it will be mine from now on!"

After speaking, Xue An no longer cared about the dazed Tan Kexin and strode toward the ladder.

Tan Kexin snapped awake and finally realized what just happened, shouting in a mix of shock and anger.

"Kid, give me back my fan!"

It must be noted that the folding fan was crafted with the collective power of The Thunderous Academy, given his outstanding performance, thus qualified to own it.
