"Third Senior Uncle, that man is up there, he was the one who injured Senior Brother Ming.
We suspect he is a remnant of the previous dynasty," footsteps and voices sounded at the top of the stairs.
"Don't judge everything," Youdao's magnetic voice replied.
Then the group of people walked up to the second floor.
In addition to the familiar young men before, there was an old man this time.
The old man was wearing a green robe, with the same pattern of two crossed swords on his chest.
His beard hung down to his chest, and a long blue sword hung at his waist.
"It seems we are in trouble," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
Xie Changliu looked directly, stood up slowly, and looked at the people who were coming up.
"Liu Changlin from Linjian Academy, who are you?" The old man did not appear arrogant, but asked calmly as he introduced himself to his family.
Xu Zimo smiled and said nothing.
"Xie Changliu," Xie Changliu replied calmly.
"Why did you hurt the students of my academy? Please give me a reasonable explanation," Liu Changlin said.
"Does it count to ridicule and insult my teacher?" Xie Changliu asked.
"I was going to your academy. Since you are here, please give me a reasonable explanation."
"Li Zi's case is different and cannot be compared," Liu Changlin replied.
"Now would you please come with me."
"Just in time, I also want to meet the master of your academy," Xie Changliu said.
Xu Zimo stood up and shook his neck.
Several people followed Liu Changlin's figure and left the inn, heading towards Linjian Academy.
Because Li Zi's legs and feet were inconvenient, Xie Changliu always supported him.
"If there is danger later, you don't have to worry about me, just leave," Li Zi reminded.
"If I don't take out the sword manual, they won't do anything to me."
"Master, you don't have to worry," Xie Changliu explained.
"I'm just going to seek justice. It's a normal competition. I don't want to be an enemy of Da Zhou."
Li Zi nodded slightly.
………………
Walking on the bustling streets, Chang'an City is divided into two types: the inner city and the outer city.
The outer city is where ordinary people live, and most outsiders stay in the outer city.
The inner city is Linjian Academy, where some generals and ministers live.
Only famous people in Dazhou can live here.
Entering the inner city, it is less prosperous than the outer city, but the surrounding buildings are either rich or expensive.
Deep mansions stand tall, with various trees growing on both sides.
Underfoot are scattered granite rocks.
"Li Zi," Liu Changlin said with a smile, leading the way.
"Aren't you going to hand over the sword code?"
"I don't have a sword manual," Li Zi said lightly.
"I can make the decision, hand over the sword code, and let you guys leave safely," Liu Changlin said.
"No wonder you took us to Linjian Academy and wanted to use this to blackmail me," Li Zi said seriously.
"Why be so stubborn?" Liu Changlin shook his head slightly.
"Handing over the sword canon will also benefit the entire Linjian Academy and the entire Great Zhou Dynasty."
"What does Dazhou have to do with me," Li Zi said calmly.
While the few people were talking, they had already arrived in front of Linjian Academy.
Because he was too close, he couldn't see the entire academy clearly.
Looking up into the distance, the wall on the north side of the college is nearly a kilometer long, which is of decent size.
At the entrance of the college, students wearing the same style came and went, and there were two huge sword lion statues standing on both sides.
The academy is surrounded by weapon shops selling swords.
"Please invite me," Liu Changlin said.
Entering the academy, your vision broadened.
However, there was nothing particularly surprising about Xu Zimo, it was just an ordinary academy layout.
There are towering pavilions on both sides, and except for some trees, all you can see is open space.
"Today is the day for the senior students of my Linjian Academy to compete. I will take you to Linjian Valley," Liu Changlin replied.
“Before meeting the Palace Master, you’d better think carefully.
And you, Li Zi, you used to be alone and not afraid of life or death, but now that your apprentice is here, you don’t care. "
The three of them followed Liu Changlin and walked towards the inside of Linjian Academy.
—————
After passing through several boulevards, a bustling scene began to appear ahead.
The so-called Linjian Valley is a small valley surrounded by countless broken swords.
The small valley is surrounded by various broken swords. Some are new swords and are still intact, while others are rusty and damaged.
Right in front, there is a very huge sword embedded vertically in the valley.
Under the giant sword, there are arenas.
At this moment, the students surrounded the arena, cheering and cheering loudly.
Xie Changliu raised his head slightly. He did not draw his sword. He just waved his right hand and slashed out with the sword intent.
With a "boom" sound, the sword struck the side of the valley, just like peeling tofu.
The entire valley collapsed suddenly, and rugged rocks rolled down from the sky.
"Everyone, get out of the way," someone shouted as the explosion caught everyone's attention.
…………
"I am Xie Changliu. I wonder where the principal and deputy masters of Linjian Academy are?" Xie Changliu shouted softly.
"You are crazy, openly disrupting the academy competition ceremony," Liu Changlin said in shock.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw several figures coming from a distance.
These figures all have powerful sword aura, especially the two people standing at the front.
A man and a woman, the swords around them are faintly intertwined and fused together, giving people a feeling of being natural.
"Li Zi," the man asked lightly, frowning slightly.
"Who was responsible for the sword intent just now?"
"I heard that you two represent the strongest swordsmen in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. I am here to challenge you," Xie Changliu said.
"Who are you?" the man asked with a frown.
"Unknown rogue cultivator, you haven't heard of me," Xie Changliu replied.
Liu Changlin next to him stepped forward and whispered in front of several people.
The man raised his head and looked at the woman next to him. The two seemed to be Taoist couples.
"It's boring to compete, why don't we make some bets," the man said.
"What do you want to bet on?" Xie Changliu asked.
"I want the sword code," the man said directly.
"What about your bet?" Xie Changliu replied.
"If I lose, how about letting your master take the position of Palace Master of Linjian Academy?" the man said.
"No one cares about the position of palace master," Xie Changliu shook his head.
"Boy, what do you know," someone nearby heard this and stood up to retort.
“During this great week, the position of palace master of Linjian Academy is second only to that of Emperor Zhou.
One person is inferior to ten thousand people. "
"Da Zhou doesn't matter," Xie Changliu said calmly without getting angry.
"If Emperor Shi is still powerful, without the protection of Emperor Shi, today's Great Zhou Dynasty may be reduced to the Ming Empire back then."
