Chapter 59 - The Seven Veins of Heaven, Earth, and Man

Not long after, a dozen people appeared in front of Chen Fan.

Among them, there were men and women, old and young, all of them were wearing white robes with the word "Heaven" embroidered on their cuffs.

Chen Fan noticed that there were a total of eight people walking in the front, seven of them were embroidered with the word "Heaven" in gold color on their sleeves, while an old man who was surrounded by stars in the middle was dressed in a regular uniform, which made it obvious that this person's identity was not ordinary.

Behind the eight people, there were also several people with silver characters on their sleeves, and Tao Ran, who had met once in Qingyang City, was clearly among them.

In an instant, Chen Fan gained a few insights into the Heavenly Martial Academy.

Those who had silver characters embroidered on their sleeves like Tao Ran should belong to the academy's lecturers. As for the gold character, the status was definitely higher than that of a lecturer.

Then in that case, the identity of the old man in regular clothes naturally spoke for itself.

He was the current Dean of Tianwu.

Just as Chen Fan was sizing up the visitor, the people on the opposite side were also sizing him up, especially Tao Ran, who had unexpectedly gained a few more points of scorn in his eyes when he met Chen Fan again.

Obviously, he did not expect that he would be able to pass the test of the Road of Life and Death.

After a moment of contemplation, Tao Ran bowed and came to the dean's side, whispering a few words in his ear, and Chen Fan, who had a slight knowledge of lips, could see that the other party was talking about the matter of the jade pendant left behind by that mysterious person.

Only that this speech, completely and totally was fabricated by Li Dingtian on that day!

Pupils contracted, Chen Fan noticed that originally the dean's expression was still quite amiable, all of a sudden turned cold, and even vaguely some inexplicable meaning.

Chen Fan knew that he couldn't explain himself, there was no excuse for wanting to commit a crime, after all, comparing the closeness and proximity, it was definitely Tao Ran's words at the dean's place that were more believable.

He could only press all of this into his heart for the time being.

"Old man Gu Yongnian, dean of Tianwu Academy, you passed the life and death road test, you could have been directly promoted to the core of the academy, but you are a flawed person, you were demoted to a junior cadet, do you have any complaints?"

Along with Gu Yongnian's opening, everyone in the arena had different expressions.

Tao Ran had a sneer on his face and looked at Chen Fan with a somewhat disdainful expression, the rest of the people were either unconcerned about the matter and said this looking at Fang Yuan with interest.

However, standing in the corner, an old man who was also embroidered with gold characters, shook his head with a regretful face.

Chen Fan's fists were already clenched, but he knew that he must not storm out at this moment, that would be the only way to play right into Tao Ran's hands and give the other party an excuse to wipe himself out!

"Tao Ran is it, one day, Mister Chen will trample you under his feet!"

Making a vow in his heart, Chen Fan pretended to cupped his fists and said to Gu Yongnian, "I have no complaints."

Gu Yongnian glanced at Chen Fan with some surprise, his gaze running over the previously clenched and unclenched fists for a moment before nodding, "Since you are a disciple of my Heavenly Martial, choose your own place of cultivation."

Gu Yongnian pointed to the person beside him and said, "My Tianwu Academy is divided into seven veins, three in the sky, three in the earth, and one in the human, so if you choose an elder of one vein, you can leave with him."

Just as Gu Yongnian was speaking, Chen Fan was also carefully sizing up the seven elders in front of him, and at the same time comparing their expressions one by one.

Since there were seven veins, then it must be the Tianyi Vein that was the most powerful and the Human Vein that was the weakest.

If one were to choose, I'm afraid that anyone would choose the Heavenly First Vein, after all, both the lecturers and the elders there must be the strongest in the Heavenly Martial.

However, after observing the eyes of the Heavenly First Vein's elders, Chen Fan immediately dismissed this thought.

What he wanted was merely to cultivate at ease, he did not want to face a group of people with cold faces all day long.

After searching for a while, Chen Fan finally landed his eyes on the elder who had previously shown regret towards him.
