God Emperor

Zhang Ruochen is not worried at all about the war between Yunwu County and Sifang County. The two commanderies have been fighting for many years. If the Yunwu Commandery was really so vulnerable, it would have been annexed by the Sifang Commandery long ago.

Now, the only thing he worries about is his mother, Concubine Lin.

With the queen's vicious character, she would definitely not let her go.

"As long as I become an inner disciple of Wushi Academy, I can bring my family to Wushi Academy and get the protection of Wushi Academy. I must become an inner disciple of Wushi Academy as soon as possible!" Zhang Ruochen secretly made up his mind.

Zi Qian was about to leave, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling walking in from the outside.

Huang Yanchen seemed to be in a good mood with a smile on her face, but after seeing Zi Qian, the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

With a swish sound, she pulled out the sword, emitting a brilliant sword light, and shouted in a deep voice: "Zhang Ruochen, you are such a slut/thief, you have repeatedly ruined the atmosphere of Longwu Palace, I must kill you today. !”

"call out!"

A whirlwind formed around Huang Yanchen's body. He lifted his feet off the ground and slashed out with his sword, creating a sword energy more than ten meters long.

Zhang Ruochen was slightly startled, and immediately grabbed Zi Qian's shoulders and used the Wind-controlling Flying Dragon Shadow. His body flashed and he moved sideways in an instant to avoid the sharp sword energy.

"Boom!"

Four pillars were cut off, and the newly rebuilt attic collapsed once again, turning into ruins.

"Meow!"

Xiao Hei crawled out from the ruins, his whole body was covered in mud, his head was hit so hard that he was dizzy, and it took him a long time to regain consciousness.

When it discovered that the culprit was Huang Yanchen, it immediately gritted its teeth with hatred. Fortunately, it was stopped by Zhang Ruochen, otherwise it would have already pounced on Huang Yanchen to fight to the death.

"You dodged pretty quickly. Try catching my sword again."

Huang Yanchen had a cold face, raised his sword, and wanted to slash at him again.

Zhang Ruochen blocked Zi Qian behind him and said calmly: "Huang Yanchen, if you have something to say, can you say it calmly?"

Huang Yanchen stared at Zi Qian, then at Zhang Ruochen, and said, "Who allows you to bring other students into Longwu Palace?"

"Junior Sister Zi and I have something to discuss. Taking her to No. 1 Huang Zi does not seem to have anything to do with Senior Sister Huang, right?" Zhang Ruochen said.

"Why are you closing the door to discuss things? Is there something you don't want people to know?" Just as she was about to say this, Huang Yanchen realized something was wrong again. It seemed that this matter really had nothing to do with her.

yes! It has nothing to do with me, so why am I so angry?

Duanmu Xingling immediately came over, stopped Huang Yanchen, and said: "Sister Chen, we still have serious matters to discuss. We will slowly argue with them about this small matter in the future."

Huang Yanchen got to the bottom of the stairs, immediately put away his sword, and coldly snorted: "Tomorrow is the quarterly assessment, I will let you go today. Since Junior Sister Zi is here, it would be best to come with me." Go to No. 1, I have something to tell you two."

Zhang Ruochen looked at the ruined attic, shook his head gently, and followed.

Arriving at No. 1, Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling sat at the top, while Zhang Ruochen and Zi Qian sat on the left and right sides of the living room.

Huang Yanchen picked up a cup of snow lotus ice tea that had just been brewed, took a sip, and said: "You should know that tomorrow's quarterly assessment will be divided into two sessions. The first one is a competition between the freshmen of the four majors. , the second one is the quarterly ranking assessment within the West Academy.”

"This year, it is the turn of the West College to hold a joint competition for freshmen. You two are the first and second freshmen in the West College. Therefore, whether the freshmen in the West College can win the championship this year depends on your performance tomorrow."

Huang Yanchen said again: "Zhang Ruochen, I know your cultivation level is very high, but you must not take it lightly. Among the freshmen in the other three colleges, there are also top masters, and their strength may be even higher than yours."

Duanmu Xingling nodded and said: "Among the four courtyards, the strongest one is the East Campus. It ranks first among the freshmen almost every year. This year, there is a top master among the freshmen in the East Campus, named Dugu Lin. , The cultivation level has reached the extreme level of Xuanji Realm.”

"Not long ago, Dugu Lin defeated Hua Xueyi, the tenth ranked master in the East Campus, and became famous in the four courtyards."

"The elders of the academy all agree that Dugu Lin has the potential to enter the top 50 in the "Xuanbang". Now, ordinary Dzogchen warriors in the Xuanji realm are no match for him."

"When he comes to the West Campus this time, his main target is you. He wants to defeat you, the number one spiritual genius in the history of Wu City Academy, in front of everyone."

Immediately afterwards, Huang Yanchen said: "Both the South Campus and the North Campus have a new student of the Xuanji Realm. Although their strength is a little weaker than Dugu Lin, they are still your formidable enemies."

"Zhang Ruochen, although your talent is very high and above them, after all, you have just broken through to the small extreme level of Xuanji Realm, which is two realms away from them. In a real battle, it is difficult to predict the outcome."

Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling didn't know that Zhang Ruochen had broken through to the extreme level of Xuanji Realm yesterday, thinking that Zhang Ruochen was still at the lower end of Xuanji Realm.

They didn't ask, and Zhang Ruochen didn't say anything. He just broke through to the middle extreme position, and there was nothing to show off in the first place.

Huang Yanchen stared at Zi Qian and said, "Junior Sister Zi, your cultivation has reached the extreme level of Xuanji Realm, right?"

Zi Qian nodded slightly and said, "I just made a breakthrough in the past two days."

Under normal circumstances, Zi Qian still needs to practice for half a year before she has a chance to break through to the Great Ultimate of the Xuanji Realm. However, for the quarterly assessment, she spent a high price to buy a fourth-grade elixir on the black market. After refining that fourth-grade elixir, I broke through the realm in one fell swoop.

Of course, the reason why she could afford the fourth-grade elixir was because she killed nearly a hundred candidates during the first round of the academy exam three months ago and received millions of silver coins.

If it were before, it would have been impossible for her to afford a fourth-grade elixir.

Huang Yanchen nodded and said: "Compared with Dugu Lin, your talent is slightly inferior, but it is almost the same as the top freshmen in the North and South colleges. You can at least enter the top five."

"As long as you and Zhang Ruochen both enter the top five, even if the first place is taken away by Dugu Lin, our West College still has a great chance to become the overall number one among the freshmen of this class."

Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling talked about some precautions for the freshman competition, and they didn't finish until dark.

After Zhang Ruochen sent Zi Qian back, he went to find Zhang Shaochu and Liu Chengfeng.

They had sold all three hundred and forty pills of Three Pure Qi Pills. As for how much they sold them for, Zhang Ruochen didn't ask and only took away the price of 3,000 silver coins for each pill.

A total of 1.02 million silver coins!

When leaving, Zhang Ruochen quietly pulled Zhang Shaochu aside and handed him five drops of Semi-Saint True Liquid.

Zhang Shaochu was so moved that his eyes filled with tears, and he refused to accept the five drops of Semi-Saint Essence no matter what.

"It's just five drops of Semi-Saint Essence. If I want it, I can buy a lot more. This time, if I can win the first place among the freshmen from the four major courtyards, I can get ten more drops of Semi-Saint Essence. Fourth brother, you don’t have to be polite to me at all,” Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.

Zhang Ruochen knew that although Zhang Shaochu's talent was pretty good, he was quite mediocre in the Wu City Academy where geniuses gathered.

Only by taking the Semi-Saint True Liquid can he improve his physique and go further on the road of cultivation in the future and become stronger.

"Ninth brother... thank you."

Zhang Shaochu squeezed the five bottles of Semi-Saint Essence in his hand tightly, knowing their value very well, and he was both happy and moved in his heart.

Five bottles of semi-holy essence are worth more than two million silver coins on the black market. Only Ninth Brother would give him such a valuable thing, and it would be impossible for anyone else.

Zhang Ruochen took out the deadly sickle again, handed it to Zhang Shaochu, and said: "This is a fifth-level true martial art treasure. From now on, you can use it!"

After gently patting Zhang Shaochu on the shoulder, Zhang Ruochen turned and left, returning to Longwu Hall.

The next day, at dawn, a loud bell rang in the west courtyard.

The bell rang nine times in a row.

All the students from the West Campus gathered at the West Campus martial arts field. Everyone was wearing white military robes, and they were full of energy and high spirits. There were more than 800 people.

In order of standing, according to the ranking of students, Luo Shuihan, who ranked first, stood at the first position in the first column, followed by Huang Yanchen, Duanmu Xingling, Tuomuzi...

After Zhang Ruochen defeated Feng Zhilin, he ranked 184th among the students in the West Academy, standing in the center of many students.

Not long after, the formation outside the west courtyard opened.

Freshmen from the East, South, and North Campuses also came to the West Campus martial arts field under the leadership of a deputy dean.

In addition, there are also some old students from the three major courtyards accompanying them. There are no more than ten old students in each courtyard, all of them are top experts, and most of them are Xuan Bang warriors, who look very heroic.

Among the freshmen camp in the East Campus, a freshman who looked about twenty years old burst out laughing, "I've heard before that the Yin in the West Campus is strong and the Yang is in decline, but when I saw it today, I realized that the rumors were indeed true. The male in the West Campus Student, you are so disappointed.”

The ears of warriors are very sharp, and many students from the West Campus heard the jeers of the freshman from the East Campus.

That was fine with the female students, but the male students felt humiliated, and everyone looked angry.

One of the top ten male students among the freshmen, named Chi Minghai, whose cultivation reached the extreme level of Xuanji Realm, said coldly: "This is the West Campus, you'd better be careful when you speak."

The freshman from the East Campus laughed again and said, "Am I wrong? Everyone, please see, the 100 people standing at the front of the martial arts field in the West Campus are the top 100 masters in the West Campus, and at least 70 of them are All of them are female students, and there are only about twenty male students. Everyone is looking at the three hundred people at the end of the West Campus martial arts field, of which more than two hundred are male students, and there are only a few dozen female students."

"What does it mean? It can only mean that there are no male students in the West Academy. It's just that the male students are all cowards. If they don't want to make progress, they will definitely be ranked at the bottom. Phew!"
