In the royal study room of the imperial palace, Aoki and the other three met the current emperor under the leadership of the captain of the bodyguard.
"Get flat."
The emperor's face was easy-going, his voice was no longer old, the wrinkles on his face were gone, and his white hair turned into thick black hair.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Aoki and the others stood up, looking at the energetic and majestic emperor, and felt an inexplicable sense of oppression in their hearts.
"I haven't summoned you for many years. Over the years, I know that Qingyun is in a difficult situation. I have always felt guilty for not being able to help Qingyun. Please understand my difficulties. It's not that I don't want to help Qingyun, but I do. Difficulty."
The emperor's face was full of apology and his true feelings were revealed. If he didn't know the truth, Master Aoki might really believe him and be moved by the emperor's behavior.
But knowing the emperor's true thoughts, I just felt that his face was extremely hypocritical.
However, no matter how much he complained in his heart, he could not show it on his face. Instead, he said flattered: "Your Majesty cares about Qingyun, and we are deeply grateful. Loyalty to the emperor is our duty at Qingyun. I only regret that Qingyun is not strong enough. Facing Ning Under the king’s targeting and suppression, I can’t share the emperor’s worries!”
"Hey, I am deeply gratified to have ministers like you, and I feel even more ashamed of you. But don't worry, from now on, I will not sit back and ignore it, and will definitely try my best to help Qingyun get out of the predicament. I hope Can I make up for my debt to Qingyun..."
The emperor sighed.
…
At the same time, the incarnation of Yuan Shi sneaked into a shop selling clothes, hats and shoes in the city.
This store is huge and the clothes sold are of excellent quality.
He quietly walked away with a set of purple clothes.
There is no way, the avatar has no money, so he can only be a little thief for once.
At this time, Jun Wuxie's true body had followed Elder Yu to the front of the Royal Academy.
The Royal Academy is located on the edge of the southern district of the Imperial City.
The environment here is quiet and far away from the downtown area. There are several rolling mountains, lush vegetation and towering ancient trees.
The college was built among the mountains. The buildings inside are very layered, from low to high, in the shape of a semicircular staircase.
"That's our outer courtyard, the second floor is the inner courtyard, the third floor is the elite academy, and the back are the core academy and the chief academy. Students of different levels study in academies at different levels."
"It seems to be similar to the hierarchy of our Qingyun disciples."
"More or less, there are chief students in the chief academy, and their status in the academy is equivalent to that of your sect's direct descendants. But their strength is much stronger."
Elder Yu said that the levels of students are strictly divided according to their realm.
Those below the Holy King level are the students of the outer academy, those in the Small Heaven level of the Holy King are the inner courtyard students, those in the Middle Heaven level are the elite students, those in the Great Heaven level are the core students, and those above the Extreme Heaven level are the chief students.
These all refer to fresh graduates. If they are the chief students of previous years, there are many strong men in the realm of great saints.
"Well, the Royal Academy is much stronger than Qingyun. Do you know why? First, we recruit the best people in Daqian, and second, they have a better and richer supply of resources. Cultivation, no matter you No matter how talented you are, you must have corresponding training resources. As the saying goes, a good woman cannot make a meal without rice. Without resources, you can only accumulate energy by absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth. The process is not only slow, but also because the quality of Qingzhou's vitality is not high. This makes it difficult to break through the realm.”
When Elder Yu said this, he smiled and said: "How about joining our Royal Academy? As long as you become a student here, although due to realm restrictions, you can only be a student in the outer academy for the time being, but I think you will be able to enter the inner academy soon, and then the elite academy. , each level has a large supply of resources. Moreover, I will open a back door for you and provide you with multiple resources, so that your cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds!"
"Why did Elder Yu talk about this again? For now, I will not leave Qingyun."
Jun Wuxie followed Elder Yu into the interior of the academy, followed the long and wide bluestone stairs, and climbed to the end of the stairs.
This is a wide flat land with a huge door in front. On the door plaque are written a few big characters - Daqian Royal Academy!
"Meet Elder Yu."
The guard in front of the door saluted respectfully and couldn't help but look at Jun Wuxie who was following him a few more times.
Who is this person? He actually allowed Elder Yu to bring him to the academy in person. Could it be that he is the son of an important minister in the court?
But they knew all the ministers' sons and had never seen him.
Entering the gate, the scenery inside is beautiful, with tall trees on both sides and a spacious avenue at your feet. From time to time, you can hear the chirping of birds.
Follow Elder Yu and walk inside.
Jun Wuxie saw many students from the outer courtyard sitting neatly in front of certain buildings.
They are learning the cultivation method from their teacher.
Some of the teachers were explaining the essence of the exercises, while others were practicing secret techniques and passing on their experiences.
"Look at those students. Although they are all students from other colleges, they are still divided in detail. According to the students' talents, they are divided into three different levels of classes: junior high school and high school."
Jun Wuxie nodded, this was similar to the fine differentiation in the Royal Academy in his lower realm.
This division is to teach students better. After all, those with higher talents can practice faster and have better understanding. After this division, if those who practice quickly are in the same class, the teacher will teach faster and there is no need to repeat the instructions again and again, which is a waste of time.
Along the way, many people looked sideways, looking from a distance, showing surprise and suspicion.
That was an elder at the head level of the college. He was usually aloof. Why did he lead someone in today? Could it be that he was a new student, or he didn't know which college he came from.
"Wuxie, in fact, you don't have to worry about anything. If you come to the academy to practice, you can still retain your identity as a disciple of Qingyun Zhenwu Peak, but you just come here to obtain resources. Others can't find such a good thing even with a lantern. Do you have any other reason to refuse?"
Elder Yu persuaded.
Today, I have to find a way to keep this month of innocence.
Just as the emperor said, this person is now the owner of the Tower of Trial. Only by staying in the academy can he get the secrets of the seventh, eighth, and ninth floors of the Tower of Trial.
It would be inconvenient for him to leave and return to Qingyun. If he wanted to know the secrets of the third floor of the Trial Tower, he would have to go to Qingyun.
People in the academy can't always stay in Qingyun. In that kind of environment, it's hard to find out the secrets. But it's different here. You can think of various ways and create various conditions.
"This matter should wait a little longer. I need to return to Qingyun to think it over carefully and talk to Master before I can make a decision."
"Master Chengyuan must have agreed. I don't think you need to go back to Qingyun. I will write a letter to Master Chengyuan. If he knows that you are practicing in the Royal Academy, he will be happy and proud of you."
How could Elder Yu be willing to let him go back? Only by keeping him here can everything be under control.
If Wu Xie leaves the imperial city this month, the future events may be uncontrollable, because then Prince Ning's Mansion will intervene.
At this time, they had walked through the outer courtyard area and followed the upward sloping bluestone stairs to the inner courtyard area.
There are many resting students here, all looking sideways with shock in their eyes.
I don't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at Jun Wuxie.
"You haven't reached the realm of the Holy King yet?"
The disciples in the inner courtyard are all saint kings. When they saw Elder Yu leading people to the inner courtyard area, they thought that this person was also in the realm of saint kings. They did not expect that he had no aura of saint kings in his body and was just a practitioner in the realm of saints.
How could Elder Yu bring people from the saint realm to the inner courtyard area?
"Who do you think he is? No matter how talented you are in the saint realm, you can only start from the students of the outer academy, because only the teachers in the outer academy teach the cultivation knowledge of the saint realm. What is taught here is the cultivation knowledge of the saint king realm!"
"I think he came here with Elder Yu to have a look. Maybe we made an exception to allow him to come to the inner courtyard to practice."
"How is it possible? There is no such rule in the academy!"
"Rules are set by people, and they will naturally be broken by people. This is the case with some well-connected households. Have you forgotten the sons and daughters of some important ministers?"
"He is not a prince from a noble family. All the princes from a noble family in the Imperial City are celebrities. Who wouldn't recognize them?"
"I can't stand these connected people the most. I don't have any skills. I just come in through the back door and drag them around every day like they're doing something!"
…
"Wuxie, are you really not going to stay and practice?"
Elder Yu did not talk to him directly this time, but communicated secretly.
"No."
"Hey, do you feel aggrieved to be a student in the outer college? I can discuss with the dean and the others to let you enter the chief college directly. At that time, your status will be the highest level among the students. Other students can see You have to be respectful."
"It's not a matter of status. I took it with good intentions."
Jun Wuxie still refused.
"Okay, I won't advise you anymore. No matter when you want to come to the academy to practice, we welcome you at any time. You can wander around here by yourself first, and I will go find the dean and others. It just so happens that they also want to meet you."
After Elder Yu conveyed the message, he walked towards the depths alone and soon disappeared.
"This old fox..."
Jun Wuxie looked at Elder Yu's disappearing figure and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
When he was in the outer courtyard, Elder Yu communicated with his voice. When he came to the inner courtyard, he changed it to his spiritual thoughts, and deliberately kept a certain distance from him.
This is obviously intentional.
As he was thinking about it, he felt many hostile eyes locked on him.
It was those inner court disciples, many of whom looked at him with unkind eyes.
He ignored it and just wandered leisurely in the inner courtyard alone.
"stop!"
A scolding came, and a large group of students stepped forward to block his way.
"Boy, where did you come from? What do you think our inner courtyard is? This is the place where only saint kings can set foot. You are just a saint, so get out!"
Some people had sneers on their faces. At first, they thought he was really someone whom Elder Yu valued, but later they discovered that Elder Yu had not spoken to this boy the whole time, and then left alone.
Obviously, Elder Yu didn't care much about this person.
That's right, he is just a saint after all.
This inner courtyard is a place where students in the saint realm are not allowed to enter. Only students above the saint king level can enter.
But this kid is actually taking a leisurely walk in the inner courtyard. What does he think of this place as his own back garden?
"I advise you to speak politely, and don't stand in front of me. Get out of the way."
Jun Wuxie looked at these arrogant inner courtyard students calmly.
He really couldn't be interested in a group of people who were in the realm of Holy Kings.
But these words were quite harsh in the ears of the inner courtyard students.
A saint who came to the inner courtyard and dared to speak to them like this was really extremely arrogant and arrogant!
"How presumptuous! I think you have taken advantage of your courage!" A student stepped forward with a sneer at the corner of his mouth and said: "In view of your stupid words and deeds just now, I will punish you to kneel down and admit your mistake, otherwise you will come in standing upright today. , I’m afraid I have to go out sideways!”
Jun Wuxie raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at them with interest without saying a word.
At this time, on the top floor above the main courtyard, on a mountain peak, Elder Yu and several old men looked calmly at the inner courtyard.
An old man in his sixties said: "Elder Yu, if you use this method to stimulate him, can it really achieve results?"
"It's hard to say, but you have to try. I have told him that the chief student has a very high status. If he is humiliated in the inner courtyard and wants to express his anger, will he consider becoming the chief student?"
"Well, this is possible." The sixty-year-old man stroked his beard and said: "We must keep it no matter what. The three floors behind the Trial Tower are very likely to have left the inheritance of the original owner of the tower. We must get it. , must not be taken away!
…
"I asked you to kneel down and admit your mistake. Are you deaf?"
In the inner courtyard, the student's voice became louder and his eyes became colder.
His anger has burned to the extreme. As a student in the inner courtyard, if he can't intimidate a person in the realm of a saint, won't he be ridiculed?
"I asked you to get out of the way. Are you deaf too?"
Jun Wuxie's expression was always calm.
This attitude angered all the inner courtyard students who were standing in front of him, especially the man who stood up and asked him to kneel down. He was immediately furious.
"Damn it, you still dare to pretend..."
He stepped forward, stretched out his hand, grabbed Jun Wuxie's shoulders, and was about to kneel her down on the ground.
Just when his hand was about to fall on Jun Wuxie's shoulder, iron-like fingers instantly locked his wrist.
For an instant, the student's face showed pain, and then there was a crack of bones. The student screamed, his face was distorted, and he squatted on the ground in pain.
Jun Wuxie sucked it in all at once, thrust forward with his fingers, and tore his entire mouth to pieces.
Immediately afterwards, he kicked it hundreds of meters away, breaking several big trees in succession before falling to the ground, with broken bones and tendons.
Such a scene made the faces of the sixty-year-old man, Elder Yu and others standing on the highest peak suddenly change.
When did Yue Wuxie become so strong?
The inner court students of the Holy King's Little Heavenly Position were actually defeated by him so easily!
On the boulevard of the inner courtyard, the other inner courtyard students were all angry after a brief shock.
A saint came to the inner courtyard to show off his power. If he was allowed to leave today, what shame would they, the inner courtyard students, have.
"If you dare to fight back, you are seeking death!"
In an instant, the dozens of inner courtyard disciples who were standing in front of him all rushed forward, surrounded him, and launched a fierce attack on him.
“Don’t overestimate your own capabilities.”
Jun Wuxie spoke calmly, raised his head slightly and glanced at the top of the highest peak.
His mind had already noticed that Elder Yu and others were watching here, and he guessed their purpose.
Seeing dozens of inner courtyard students attacking him from all sides, he looked coldly and put his foot on the ground.
A buzzing sound.
The red and crystal blood energy exploded instantly with his feet as the center, sweeping in all directions like a wave.
The secret technique attacks of dozens of inner courtyard students were instantly destroyed by the impact of the red crystal blood.
Boom!
The blood energy rushed from bottom to top, sending dozens of people directly into the sky.
All the trees here within a radius of a thousand meters were broken and were in a mess.
At the same time, Jun Wuxie stretched out his palm, with his palm facing the sky, blood surged upwards, and his fingers clenched into fists.
Dozens of people who were thrown into the air were sucked with great force and fell down like meteors.
There were literally human-shaped dumplings all over the world, falling together with a crackle, and dozens of human-shaped pits were made on the ground. Blood spattered, and the sound of broken bones and screams resounded throughout the inner courtyard.
Dozens of people, all with broken bones and tendons, displaced internal organs, vomiting blood, huddled in a human-shaped pit and howled incessantly.
Suddenly, except for the wails, everyone else in the entire inner courtyard fell silent. No one made the slightest sound, and they all looked at him with horrified eyes.
"Anyone else want to try?"
Jun Wuxie glanced at all the inner courtyard students here. Wherever his gaze went, every inner courtyard student was so frightened that they hurriedly lowered their eyes, not daring to look at them.
At this moment, on the highest main peak, the faces of the sixty-year-old man, Elder Yu and others were a little ugly.
"Damn it, I underestimated his improvement in the Tower of Trial. His level has improved so much compared to before the trial!"
The muscles on Elder Yu's face twitched, it was his miscalculation.
He originally thought that he could let the disciples in the inner courtyard teach Yue Wuxie a lesson and let him be humiliated in the inner courtyard. This stimulated his desire for revenge, so he had no choice but to choose to become the chief student.
In that case, they can keep it in the Royal Academy, and there is a way to get the secrets of the last three floors of the Trial Tower.
Unexpectedly, Yue Wuxie was now so strong that he could defeat dozens of students in the early stages of the Holy King Realm with just a few moves across the Great Realm Barrier!
