As the representative force of the royal family in Wolong, Shenlong Academy sends invitations to different sects in the country every year, inviting young talents to come to discuss and exchange with students in the academy, and also invites outstanding figures in the sects to provide on-demand guidance to the freshmen who have just started.
The purpose is also obvious - in addition to giving the freshmen a chance to learn, it also destroys their arrogance and lets them see how powerful other sects are.
Mixing new and old students together to fight against other sects can also promote the relationship between the students, allowing them to "share the same hatred and hatred" and create a fighting friendship.
Let other sects play the bad side, the old students play the bad side, and the college senior officials and the royal family will play the bad side again...
The freshmen will soon develop a sense of belonging to Shenlong Academy and become more willing to be loyal to the royal family.
In addition, the academy can also observe and understand the strength of new forces in other sects through exchanges and guidance, and obtain more beneficial information.
It can be described as killing three birds with one stone.
But naturally other sects also know the intentions of Shenlong Academy, and are they still willing to let them use themselves as gunmen?
The answer... they really are willing.
Why? Because going there to exchange guidance will also be of great benefit to their own new generation of disciples.
And for the sect's senior leaders, they can also collect information about Shenlong Academy.
What's more important is that Shenlong Academy provides them with subsidies!
As the face of the royal family in recruiting talents, Shenlong Academy has an absolutely profound foundation.
What are the crystal nuclei of fourth- and fifth-level special monsters, fifth- and sixth-level magical elixirs, magical weapons from Dongxu and even the Pure Phase Realm, rare Tianhua treasures in the world...
As long as you come, it’s free of charge! Direct subsidies to you! There is also a big prize in the exchange competition!
Not to mention those small sects, not even the Changling Sword Sect can be so wealthy and powerful, and the disciples will be moved by it.
The other party has already made free offers and still refuses to act. Wouldn't that be a big fool?
Therefore, the exchange and guidance activities of Shenlong Academy have been going on for more than ten years.
However, as Xiao Jinnian said, this year, Shenlong Academy actually invited all the domestic forces to go at the same time, with great intention of hosting the Wolong Nation Youth Conference.
This is the first time in the history of the college that it is of this scale.
Xiao Jinnian didn't understand why the college suddenly held a large exchange meeting. But with such a big battle, he was still murmuring in his heart, always feeling that there was some ulterior motive behind it.
In this case, he didn't directly invite Ling Yao as he said before.
If this is a trap and Ling Yao falls into it, where can he, Xiao Jinian, go to reason?
And Ling Yao himself did have the intention to go there.
Even if Shenlong Academy really dug a hole for them, it wouldn't be able to bury everyone, right?
After all, the sects I went to were all respectable, and if we all worked together, we might not be able to defeat the royal family. No matter what actions they take, they must be measured.
Moreover, the more big the academy makes, the more each sect cannot avoid it - instead, they should go further and explore the reality.
If he can get a spot, it will be considered as Yueyao Feng's contribution to the Sword Sect.
More importantly, even if he is indifferent to Shenlong Academy's subsidies over the years, the prize for this year's individual exchange competition champion is a sixth-level peak spirit-gathering pill!
That is a magical elixir that can directly elevate the Dongxu Realm to a small realm! And it’s an overall improvement!
Who can not be moved!
However... Ling Yao backed down a few days before receiving Xiao Jinian's letter.
Because he had recently talked with the Tucao guards and knew that Ling Linhan had now broken through the Dongxu Realm and was about to become one of this batch of new students!
If he wants to go there, he will definitely have to fight with the people from the academy. And Ling Linhan will definitely participate in the competition...
I have to see that cheating kid again. Doesn’t he have a heart attack?
If they really fight, won't they just add to their hatred?
Although he was not afraid that Ling Linhan would hate him, he even allowed Ling Linhan to grow up in order to catch bigger fish.
But this does not mean that he is willing to take the initiative to stir up hatred and make the mastermind behind the scenes agree!
However, when he read down Xiao Jinnian's letter, he changed his mind.
Previously, he and Ling Weiran, the head of the Ling family, secretly investigated the inside of the Ling family. What they found was really limited and of little use value.
In order to investigate the unknown "senior", he could only ask Xiao Jinnian to continue to be his "internal agent" at Shenlong Academy.
In this letter, Xiao Jinnian really found something.
The "senior" who once helped Ling Linhan was named Xu Anyang, and he was in the same branch as Ling Linhan.
Xu Anyang, twenty-three years old, the eldest son of the Xu family of Wolong Kingdom, is a student of the inner sect of the branch of Shenlong Academy, and belongs to the middle and upper reaches of the inner sect.
He paid special attention to Ling Linhan when he entered the Shenlong Academy branch. He helped Ling Linhan many times, claiming that he was "investing" in Ling Linhan.
And Ling Linhan lived up to his expectations, promoted all the way, and entered the inner gate.
After Ling Linhan entered the inner gate, in order to repay the favor, he gave Xu Anyang a secret book from an unknown source, which greatly increased his strength.
Because of this, Xu Anyang valued Ling Linhan even more, and was even willing to become Ling Linhan's younger brother to help him bridge relationships and make friends in the inner sect.
He also united with so-called like-minded people, led by Ling Linhan, to form his own gang in the inner sect, and fought against Luo Chenyang, who had the strongest power in the inner sect at that time.
In the end, with the help of these people, Ling Linhan defeated Luo Chenyang and became the most prestigious and vocal student in this branch.
Although Ling Linhan's strength is indeed unshakable, with his age and experience of only fourteen years old, he can establish the most powerful force in the branch, and has a position that is widely expected and answered by everyone. It can be said that Xu Anyang really takes the credit. Very great.
Moreover, Ling Linhan is actually not good at taking care of gang affairs and only focuses on his cultivation.
Therefore, the management of the branch's largest force actually basically falls on Xu Anyang.
In other words, as long as Ling Linhan does not appear, Xu Anyang is the real person in power in the minds of the branch students.
From the perspective of discerning people like Ling Yao and Xiao Jinian, Xu Anyang may not necessarily want to sideline Ling Linhan.
But such a move is definitely taking advantage of Ling Linhan's strength and reputation as a genius to create a position that is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people in the branch.
When I think of those complainers, they actually thought that Xu Anyang was an unknown logistician who "worked hard and never complained" and "accused the injustice" on his behalf...
Ling Yao's mood was complicated.
The fans who complained all got to know Xu Anyang through Ling Linhan's perspective.
This also means that in Ling Linhan's opinion, everything Xu Anyang did was sincerely for his sake, and he was simply an angel who gave selflessly...
Also, no matter how talented Ling Linhan is, he still has the mind and experience of a fourteen-year-old child.
Except that he probably didn't have a good life when he was a child, and then he got a beating from himself half a year ago... He has had a smooth journey, and he can only understand the twists and turns in these people's minds.
In this regard, Ling Yao could only sigh.
After all, Xiao Jinian was in the main campus of the college, and his time was limited, so there wasn't much he could find.
But he also mentioned in his reply that with the help of Ling Linhan, Xu Anyang entered the Cave Void Realm one step ahead of Ling Linhan. He had already written an application form and was about to become the next batch of freshmen in the main hospital.
In this regard, Ling Yao and Xiao Jinnian's judgments coincided:
This Xu Anyang's ambition is greater than they expected!
He was not satisfied with the small branch, but wanted to use Ling Linhan's influence to reach a high position in the main hospital!
But on second thought, this is actually a good thing for Ling Yao.
Once Xu Anyang arrives at the main hospital, Xiao Jinnian, as an old student of the main hospital, will find it much easier to track him down.
However, there was something even more unexpected in this letter.
——Ling Linhan’s younger brother Ling Feiyu is actually going to become a freshman in the main hospital!
Although Ling Yao had obtained information from the Tucao guards before, he knew that Ling Linhan had used his power in the branch to send his younger brother to the branch and directly send him to the inner sect to study.
But the operation of sending people from the branch hospital to the main hospital cannot be done by just relying on Ling Linhan to respond to the call in the branch hospital.
Ling Feiyu... Ling Yao, who once managed the affairs of the Ling family branch, thought about it and found that he had no impression of this person.
This at least shows that Ling Feiyu is not a genius worth remembering.
Under normal circumstances, Shenlong Academy would never accept such a person as a new student.
And... it's unreasonable to complain about such a big thing and not tell him about it!
So Ling Yao made a quick decision and started sending messages to the complainers asking for confirmation:
[Can someone like Ling Feiyu be escorted directly to the main hospital? What kind of cool operation is this?]
Look, he is now very proficient in using these "Internet slangs"!
The reply I got: [Yes! Wouldn't it be better to write a new character and be the younger brother? It's not a one-night stand! This little brother has always been in the cyclone realm before, and he is not at the same level as the current Ling Linhan! 】
[In order to promote this younger brother, I asked Ling Linhan to directly pour spiritual energy into him, eat treasures, and force him to reach the late Danyang stage. The author also gave this little brother some kind of phoenix bloodline, so that he was directly favored by the main hospital... Is Ling Linhan the protagonist or he? Can't figure it out]
[By the way, what other functions does the Nine Heavens Chongyun Tower have? How can I directly give initiation to others? Did Patriarch Tianxin really come up with such awesome stuff just to cultivate a disciple from another generation? This is like raising a biological son! 】
Ling Yao: ...I'm just asking Ling Feiyu, but you guys have so much information in this meal... I need to digest it.
In short, in the face of so many clues, Ling Yao decided to apply for a quota and go to Shenlong Academy to see Xu Anyang and Ling Feiyu with his own eyes.
He wrote a reply to Xiao Jinnian and asked the messenger Lingge to deliver it.
Then he packed up his appearance and went to see his master Qiu Tianming to explain his thoughts.
Qiu Tianming certainly had no objection to this.
This time Shenlong Academy has a unique move, and Jianmen also needs reliable people to test it out.
As a newly promoted Dongxu realm, Ling Yao is a genius who has reached the Dongxu Wood Tribulation before he is weak. His temperament is stable enough, so he is naturally an excellent candidate.
"I will mention this to the sect master. Even if you don't mention it, the sect master will probably put you on the list. When you go back, make preparations in advance."
Qiu Tianming dismissed Ling Yao in a few words, and Ling Yao was very satisfied with the result.
But on the day of departure, Ling Yao, who arrived at the right time, was heartbroken when he saw Ke Shuyu, the second disciple of Sun Yao Peak, and Liu Yuya, the third disciple of Xing Yao Peak, also appearing at the gathering place.
Master, you tricked me!
In the Sword Sect, although the three peaks of the Sun, Moon and Star are fighting with each other, their relationship is relatively harmonious on the surface.
But everyone in the Jianmen Sect knows that Ke Shuyu, who is also a member of Dongxu Mujie, cannot deal with Ling Yao!
It can be as big as taking credit from him when doing tasks, belittling him and ostracizing him in front of other disciples; as small as grabbing food in the cafeteria or robbing wooden figures at the training ground...
In short, when Ling Yao said something, he said something else, and they would always disagree with Ling Yao.
Ling Yao used his own logic to think about it for a long time, and he still doesn't know why this person is so against him.
Wasn't it just that during the competition within the gate, I accidentally stabbed you in the butt with my sword?
That was an accident! I apologized too! How come you have hated me for so long? (Sorry, this is really bad)
The other one, Liu Yuya, who was one year younger than herself in the late Danyang period, was not against him.
But this one is scarier.
This is a super beauty obsessed girl who is addicted to all kinds of handsome guys and beauties! When he first entered the school and lived in the dormitory of the outer disciples, he was the kind of "obsessed girl" who would secretly come here in the middle of the night to cut his own hair and collect it! ! Very scary!
Who knows if I cut my hair this time or not next time? !
Sure enough, when Liu Yuya saw that the person coming was Ling Yao, her eyes suddenly filled with love and she smiled a hair-raising smile.
She was clearly in the late Danyang stage, but she pretended to be as weak as a willow, shouting "Ayao, you're here", and then she fell towards Ling Yao.
Ke Shuyu, who was on the side, also saw him, and immediately snorted, turning his head away with disdain, not forgetting to say: "Huh, what a couple."
With a stiff smile on his face, Ling Yao politely and courteously used his spiritual power to lift Liu Yuya up and push her away, then silently stood at the right rear of Ke Shuyu.
Before Ling Yao could say anything, Liu Yuya immediately twisted her waist, walked around from the left to the right of Ke Shuyu, and continued to stare at Ling Yao with a smile on her face:
"Ayao's eyes are still as mesmerizing as ever. I really like it..."
No! You don't like it!
You also said last time that my dark hair was very enviable, but what was the result?
Where's my hair! ?
Before Ling Yao could get angry, Ke Shuyu seemed to be unable to stand it anymore.
He waved his hand and said in a deep voice in front of the outer disciples who were traveling with him:
“Now that some of the latecomers are already here, there is no need to delay.
"Disciples of Changling Sword Sect, follow me!"
Liu Yuya then restrained herself and returned to her original dignified and reserved self.
The outer disciples responded in unison, their shouts shaking the sky.
Ling Yao had long been accustomed to Ke Shuyu's verbal disparagement.
Now his mind was filled with resentment towards his master for not telling him the truth earlier, and he followed the road with a shudder.
This trip to Linjiang City is extremely dangerous...
…
Taking advantage of the large teleportation array, a few days later, Changling Jianmen and his party arrived at Linjiang City.
As for the person responsible for receiving them at Shenlong Academy, it was Ling Yao's "old friend", Xiao Jinian.
Although his cultivation level is not comparable to that of Ling Yao and Ke Shuyu, after all, Ke Shuyu is twenty-seven and Ling Yao is a rare genius.
Therefore, he brought people from the Baiyu Gang to greet the Changling Jianmen group, which was considered suitable for his status.
Of course, it was a formal occasion after all, and Xiao Jinnian, a joker, would not come to greet them wearing a black cloak and covering his face.
Everything was carried out in accordance with the regulations of Shenlong Academy and was full of pomp and circumstance.
Xiao Jinian dressed like a human being and was rarely more serious than a stick of incense. He led the Changling Sword Sect and his entourage in a well-behaved manner and moved into the cave abode specially prepared by the college for each sect.
Ke Shuyu is a person who has seen the world and knows that Ling Yao and Xiao Jinian have a personal relationship, so naturally he will not take the initiative to say anything to Xiao Jinian.
When he arrived at the cave, he chose the best room and lived in it.
Liu Yuya and the two grown men who flirted with each other had nothing to communicate with each other, so it was the same.
As for the ordinary disciples of Changling Sword Sect, when they saw that among the people sent by Shenlong Academy to greet each sect, there was such an outstanding figure who had discovered the golden calamity at such a young age, they respected Shenlong Academy even more.
In addition, when I saw that the spiritual energy in the cave here was so full, stronger than the cave where the outer disciples lived, I looked at Xiao Jinnian with a look of admiration.
Ling Yao looked at Xiao Jinnian's polite smile, but he didn't know how proud he was and didn't bother to expose the other party.
Just when he was about to secretly ask Xiao Jinnian to arrange another place for him outside, Liu Yuya, who had already entered the room, suddenly floated over and secretly glanced at Xiao Jinian:
"What do you call this little brother? I see your chest is so broad and solid. I really want to lean in and lie down and listen to your heartbeat~~"
Ling Yao: Good guy, this face control guy has changed his target!
Seeing Xiao Jinian's face flushed, but still strong and calm to answer the other party's happy look...
Ling Yao had a dead look on his face: Happy? You are happy now.
When someone else's heart is ripped out by a black tiger later, don't cry, kid!
