The fact that Gu Yuexi was coming to participate in the academy-wide competition had only been announced to the senior management of each academy; it hadn't been made public.
Chu Sheng didn't know.
None of the students from the Beast Taming Academy knew, either.
Therefore, when Gu Yuexi appeared before the tens of thousands of students assembled in their formations, the field instantly erupted.
"Holy crap, what's going on? Lin Zhixia is here!"
"The Future Empress is going to participate in the academy-wide competition too? This is going to be good."
"I wonder which academy she'll choose to join! Why not join our Mind Master Academy!"
"But isn't she too young? Her realm is probably only around the Third or Fourth Grade. The ones representing the academies are all third and fourth-year seniors. The weakest of them are at the Fifth-Grade Realm!"
