When Qin Shu stopped, he couldn't help but sigh. He was able to move quickly and show off his skills, which was a lot of fun.
Then I saw students in Tianwu Academy gathering in one direction.
And in the crowd, a young man in rich clothes and with an impressive temperament waved to him and motioned for him to come over.
Qin Shu walked over and saluted: "Your Highness, King Qi."
The young man is the current third son of Emperor Liang, King Xiao Yian of Qi, and has a cultivation level of the seventh level of Zhu Yuan.
Xiao Yian nodded and asked: "Marquis Qin, I heard that you went to Duke Wei's Mansion to propose marriage yesterday. How was the situation?"
Qin Shu smiled slightly. It had to be said that there were many eyes and ears in Kyoto, and the matter of proposing marriage could not escape the eyes of those people.
Xiao Yian smiled and said: "Looking at your smile, it should be a deal. Congratulations."
Qin Shu said: "Thank you, Your Highness."
Xiao Yian said: "The prince's palace is currently short of manpower. Do you want to come and help?"
Qin Shu is a talented person, and he has an uncle who is the commander of the patrol battalion behind him. Now he is married to Duke Wei, so he is a worthy target for all forces to win over.
Qin Shu replied: "I'm afraid I will disappoint His Highness. My uncle has already made arrangements."
Xia Zehai had already warned him about taking sides. The prince is the crown prince and the future heir of the empire. Assisting the prince is the right way, and anyone else is a traitor.
As a commander of a patrol battalion who only takes orders from the emperor, this is a very normal idea.
And Qin Shu also agreed that the prince himself had natural advantages, and other princes were too laborious.
Of course, the prince does not refer to a specific person.
Xiao Yian nodded, with no displeasure on his face. It was difficult to guess whether he was recruiting people to seize the throne, or whether he really just lacked manpower and needed help. "That's okay. If you are free, you can come to my palace at any time."
"Well, definitely." Qin Shu replied, not wanting to talk too much about this aspect, so he immediately changed the subject and asked: "Your Highness, what happened here? Why are so many people gathering here?"
Xiao Yian explained: "I also passed by by chance and saw someone challenging the road monument in the college. He has achieved a good score so far, so come and take a look. His score is almost as good as yours."
"Oh." Qin Shu didn't have too many surprises. The people gathered here were just to watch the Dao Stele Trial in Tianwu Academy. If Xiao Yi'an hadn't waved him over, he wouldn't have come.
You can participate in the first level of this trial, the ninth level of body refining. You can get results by defeating phantoms of the same level in the trial. Each time you defeat a phantom, the next phantom will be stronger until you can no longer defeat it.
The Dao Monument Trial is held every three months, and the top three can get some rewards to motivate students. This is one of the reasons why Tianwu Academy has doubled its talent pool.
The predecessor defeated 20 phantoms in a row here, reaching the highest level in the history of Tianwu Academy.
If the time calculation is correct, today is the last day of this ranking list, and it is also the best time to rush to the list.
Qin Shu looked at this round of Taoist monuments in the school grounds. Because he was on the history list, he was not on this list. The guy named Han Ye ranked first, with 17 already.
In other words, defeating 17 people in the ninth level of body refining in a row was something that ordinary ninth level body refining people could not do.
With such strength, it is no wonder that so many people have gathered together.
"Hanye..." Qin Shu asked, "Is there such a person in the academy?"
Xiao Yian replied: "There is no one named Han Ye in Tianwu Academy. This should be a pseudonym."
In order to take care of some students who don't like to be famous and keep a low profile, Tianwu Academy can use pseudonyms in the Dao Monument Trial.
"Oh." Qin Shu narrowed his eyes, and then his thoughts began to fly.
The reverse of cold night is night cold.
Could it be that this cold night is Ye Han, the son of luck?
Ye Han's family had also been prosperous, and it was normal for him to have a student quota at Tianwu Academy.
If you think about it carefully, in most novels, before the child of destiny has grown to the same level as his powerful opponent, he will push his opponent down the list and occupy the top spot.
He had robbed Ye Han's fiancée. She was his biggest enemy, and he was the son of luck. It was indeed possible.
Ye Han wants to push himself down the list?
Qin Shu smiled and had an idea.
He is worthy of being the son of luck. His strength is already remarkable. If he were the original owner, he would probably be surpassed.
The text on the Taoist monument ranking list soon changed to eighteen.
The students around were talking a lot.
"Having defeated eighteen in a row, Han Ye is about to catch up with Qin Shu."
"The academy is full of talents. Senior Qin Shu just came out not long ago, and now it's another cold night."
"Can Han Ye surpass Senior Brother Qin Shu?"
"It shouldn't be possible. Although it's just a number, it gets harder the further you go. Senior Qin Shu defeated twenty of them in a row."
"Reaching eighteen is already a good achievement. Han Ye's loss to Senior Brother Qin Shu is not unfair."
…
Everyone felt that Han Ye's results were already good enough, but it was still difficult to catch up with Qin Shu.
But the number soon changed to nineteen, and another uproar broke out.
"Nineteen!"
"This is too strong!"
"Our Tianwu Academy has another dazzling star!"
"Who is this Hanye?"
…
Xiao Yian smiled and said: "Qin Hou, I'm still one away from catching up with you."
"Yeah." Qin Shu said with a faint smile. If nothing unexpected happens, Ye Han will soon surpass his historical results and become the number one in Tianwu Academy.
Facing Ye Han's challenge, Qin Shu was also particularly interested.
Qin Shu said to himself: "I haven't gone to you yet, but you have sent me points. It just so happens that the more points I have, the more secure my plan will be."
The food was almost reaching his mouth. It would make no sense not to eat. There was no need to wait any longer. Qin Shu stepped over.
Xiao Yian looked at Qin Shu with interest and thought: I wonder how many people he can challenge with his current strength?
The sharp-eyed students in the crowd made way for him.
"It's Senior Qin Shu, Senior Qin Shu is here!"
"Senior Qin Shu is so handsome! I declare you senior~"
"Senior, do you want to refresh the rankings?"
…
Qin Shu ignored the restless crowd and tapped a few acupuncture points on his body to suppress his cultivation to the ninth level of body refining.
Just as these students guessed, he wanted to refresh his rankings.
In Tianwu Academy's Dao Monument Trial, students here can refresh their scores and test the increase or decrease in their basic strength, but they cannot use the power of the Spirit Realm. Once detected, the results will be invalid.
Qin Shu walked into a cave in the Dao Monument Trial. After taking out the academy token to register, the door of the cave automatically closed.
The restrictions in the cave were activated, and the scene in front of Qin Shu began to change. It seemed that he had entered another world, and a phantom quickly appeared in front of him.
His figure suddenly flashed, he held it down and slammed its head.
With a bang, the shadow that fell to the ground disappeared.
The corners of Qin Shu's mouth curled up slightly. After his strength increased greatly, the trials of these Taoist tablets were simple. It was really too easy!
