Immediately after, Si Xingkong said, “I’m a little better than you, having cultivated two thousand four hundred drops of true essence. Having dragon blood has indeed allowed our cultivation speed to skyrocket, and according to my prediction, within this year, we will be able to break through to the late stage of the Heavenly Extremity Realm.”
Chang Qi Qi also nodded, if there was no dragon blood, it was estimated that one would still have to cultivate for three to five years before having the current cultivation realm.
Therefore, it was still necessary to thank Zhang Ruochen.
If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t taken them to the Underwater Dragon Palace, they wouldn’t have been able to obtain the dragon blood, and even more so, they wouldn’t have been able to come to the Sacred Academy to participate in the examination.
Since they possessed dragon blood, they were the ones who cherished this opportunity and had to become Saints of the Sacred Academy.
Everyone was talking and laughing, except for Duanmu Xingling who remained silent, as if she had something on her mind.
Zhang Ruochen glanced towards Duanmu Xingling and sensed something strange and asked, “Senior Sister Duanmu, what are you thinking about?”
Duanmu Xingling was jolted, as if she was startled by Zhang Ruochen, and hurriedly said, “No, nothing, I just feel that I’m happy in my heart just because I can see Senior Sister Luo and Sister Dust again today.”
“Right! Luo Shuihan, Huang Yichen, and Chen Xi’er, they should also be rushing to the Holy Academy today, to take the examination, so when the time comes, we can definitely get together.”Chang Qi Qi said excitedly.
Under Lei Jing’s leadership, Zhang Ruochen, Si Xingkong, Chang Qi Qi, and Duanmu Xingling, rushed to the Sacred Courtyard.
Outside of the Sacred Courtyard, it had already been a sea of people, the Inner Palace students from various Martial City Academies had all converged here, and at a glance, it was all full of people, one could not see the edges at all.
Some of them had already come outside the Holy Academy last night and waited here.
There were also some trainees with honourable status, driving magnificent carriages, under the pull of the savage beasts, there was no need to queue up at all, and they directly entered the gates of the Sacred Courtyard, making all the other trainees envious.
“That’s the proud son of the Xu Sheng Sect Valve, Xu Qing.”
“The Xu Sheng Sect Valve, there is a Half-Saint who is a lecturer at the Holy Academy.”
“No wonder Xu Qing doesn’t need to queue up and can directly enter the Sacred Academy for the first round of examinations.”
……
In the midst of the crowd’s murmurs, Zhang Ruochen glanced up at the top of that one carriage, only to see a young man wearing a white flying python robe suit, sitting in the carriage, his eyebrows sharp and his features impressive.
Four barbarian elephants clad in golden armour pulled the carriage, slowly moving forward, giving off a majestic feeling.
At the back of the carriage, followed by thirty-six young martial artists, both male and female, all of them with Heavenly Extreme Realm cultivation.
Moreover, they were full of spirit and blood, their entire body’s 100,000 pores were gulping spiritual qi, clearly not ordinary martial artists.
Those thirty-six young martial artists were also the outstanding people cultivated by the Xu Sage Clan, together with Xu Qing, to participate in the Holy Academy Examination.
“Worthy of being a Sacred Sect Valve, it has actually cultivated so many talented individuals. If every generation of the Xu Sacred Sect Valve’s children were this outstanding, and tens of generations accumulated, how terrifying would it be?”Si Xingkong said with some shock.
Lei Jing said, “That’s the kind of heritage that only Saint Sect Valves have, other clans simply can’t compare. Besides, how many Saint Sect Valves can there be in the entire Eastern Region?”
The appearance of dozens of genius trainees from the Sacred Sect Valve of Xu in one go did create quite a stir outside the Sacred Academy, and the crowd was talking, some in awe, some envious.
Those genius cadets from the Southern Cloud County also stood amongst the crowd, looking out at the frame of the Xu Sheng Sect Valve’s car.
Xue Ying Rou looked at Xu Qing who was sitting in the carriage, a pair of beautiful eyes revealing a strange look, that’s right, in her opinion, only the heavenly pride of a Saint Sect Warrior like Xu Qing was worthy of her.
If she could become Xu Qing’s woman, in the future, she could also be as glamorous as she was now.
Just at this moment, in the crowd, a tsunami of voices rang out.
“The Heaven’s Pride son of the Eastern Region Saint King’s Mansion is here!”
“Heavens! The Eastern Domain Saint King’s Mansion has actually sent out so many geniuses and talents, several times more than even the Xu Sheng Sect Valves.”
“The Chen Family of the Eastern Domain Saint King’s Mansion is a medieval family that is many times more powerful than the average Saint Sect Valves, that’s the true pinnacle family.”
……
Zhang Ruochen’s heart stirred as he thought of Huang Yichen and Chen Xi’er, weren’t they from the Eastern Domain Sacred King’s Mansion?
Thus, Zhang Ruochen looked in the direction of the Eastern Domain Sacred King’s Mansion, searching for Huang Yichen’s figure.
The Eastern Domain Sacred King’s Mansion, which was driven by a total of three purple and gold carts that were as tall as four feet, was like three small palaces that slowly moved forward.
The savage beasts pulling the three purple and gold carts were fifth rank savage beasts, Qilin.
The three Qilin drove side by side, exuding a majestic barbarian beast aura that instantly suppressed the Xu Sheng Sect’s aura.
Inside the three purple and gold vehicles, there was a genius sitting on each of them, two men and one woman, three of the most outstanding human experts of the Chen Clan’s current generation.
Although these three were not Saint Body, their strength was incomparably close to that of a Saint Body.
Behind the purple and gold car, there were also one hundred and fifty-seven young martial artists of the Heavenly Extremity Realm, geniuses cultivated by the Chen Family, who had come to participate in the Holy Academy’s examination.
After searching for half a day, Zhang Ruochen did not find Huang Yichen and Chen Xi’er, and was slightly surprised in his heart.
Just then, Zhang Ruochen detected a pair of eyes staring at him from behind, it was Huang Yichen’s aura.
Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly and immediately turned around and looked over.
Huang Yichen stood ten feet away, wearing a silver-coloured robe with long, treasured blue hair, proudly holding out his chest and holding a white battle sword between his hands.
Still with a haughty look, tilting his chin, his entire body exuded an icy cold aura, as if he was trying to reject people.
Without waiting for Zhang Ruochen to welcome her, Duanmu Xingling jumped up first and hugged Huang Yichen, saying joyfully, ”Sister Dust, I’ve missed you to death! By the way, why aren’t you with those geniuses and juniors from the Eastern Region Saint King’s Mansion?”
Chen Xi’er then walked out from the back and laughed, “We’re trainees of the Heavenly Demon Ridge Martial City Academy, and since we’re participating in the Sacred Courtyard Examination, of course we have to be with you guys.”
After saying this, she even gave Zhang Ruochen a slight stare, teasingly blinking her eyes in general.
Wearing a white veil, Luo Shuihan walked out from the crowd, her gaze fixed on Zhang Ruochen, her voice clear and cold as she said, “Senior Brother Zhang, I’ve already succeeded in my cultivation!”
No one else knew the meaning of Luo Shuihan’s words, but only Zhang Ruochen understood.
Luo Shuihan must have cultivated the fist move that Luo Xu had left in the Half-Saint’s Holy Intent, inspiring the Sacred Body and completely transforming it.
Zhang Ruochen’s heart was greatly moved, revealing a joyful expression as he said, “Congratulations to Senior Sister Luo.”
“I still have to thank you, if it wasn’t for your help, I wouldn’t have been able to succeed in my cultivation.”
Luo Shuihan was standing right in front of Zhang Ruochen, but a wisp of smoke flowed throughout her entire body, as if she was standing in another time and space, quite ethereal, giving off a hazy beauty.
Without using the Heavenly Eyes, even Zhang Ruochen was somewhat unable to see through her.
It should be true that she had cultivated a Sacred Body.
Chang Qi Qi laughed out loud and said, “Since everyone has already gathered, today is the time to right the name of our Heavenly Demon Ridge Martial City Academy, lest some cats and dogs look down on us and think that because we come from a remote place, we don’t have any skills. Strive for everyone, all of them, to pass the examination and become Saints.”
Luo Shuihan said, “Today is just the first round of examination, it’s not strict. I have a token from the Sacred Courtyard, so I can directly enter the Sacred Courtyard for the examination without having to queue up. All of you come with me!”
Luo Shuihan walked out first, followed by Zhang Ruochen and the others.
