Chapter 126: Heading to Zhen'nan City, the Yun Family's Plans!

~6 min read 1,182 words

Heavenly Pride Battalion, inside Jiang Shang's office.

Su Yu walked in slowly.

At this moment, there were already several people inside the office.

Du Nian Guan, Ou Yang Ningxue, Yang Qi, including Huang Shaotian who had always disliked Su Yu, were also inside.

Adding Su Yu made exactly ten people.

Seeing Su Yu's arrival, Huang Shaotian's expression changed slightly, and he hid in the corner.

He now didn't dare to oppose Su Yu directly.

You know, not only in cultivation, Su Yu had already pulled far ahead of Huang Shaotian, and even in background, he was far inferior to Su Yu.

Su Yu has now entered the Golden Body Realm.

As for background.

Being a disciple of the Slay Dragon King is enough that few in all of Daxia dare to look down on Su Yu.

"Su Yu, you came just in time; now everyone is here, let me briefly explain the content of this mock exam!"

Jiang Shang waved his hand, smiling as he greeted Su Yu.

Su Yu nodded, found a seat, and sat down.

Jiang Shang cleared his throat: "Actually, the content of the mock exam is quite simple, similar to the college entrance exam; in short, it's just a test before the college entrance exam."

"However, this time it targets the entire southern region, while the college entrance exam targets all of Daxia."

"Basically, the scores of this mock exam are not much different from those of the college entrance exam, so the mock exam is very important."

As he said this, Jiang Shang's expression suddenly became very solemn.

"And this year's mock exam... is not simple!"

"You also know that, starting this year, the college entrance exam has increased the quota for repeaters, who take the exam together with fresh graduates, so you will face not only peers of your own year, but also repeaters from last year, or even the year before."

"You... are you ready?"

Jiang Shang's gaze swept over the students of the Heavenly Pride Battalion, his expression extremely solemn.

The crowd instantly straightened their bodies slightly and spoke loudly.

"Ready!"

Jiang Shang then showed a smile, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, for the mock exam, each province selects the top ten Heavenly Pride students to participate, so you also represent the face of our Jiangnan Province; I don't expect you to get first place, but at least... don't come in last."

Jiang Shang was somewhat helpless.

There's nothing to be done; Jiangnan Province coming in last is already no secret in the southern region; basically everyone knows.

Every year, the last place is Jiangnan Province.

However, this year, Jiang Shang has a glimmer of hope.

That is Su Yu!

A Golden Body Realm fresh graduate, even if you look across the entire southern region, he is among the top existences.

This time, Jiang Shang suddenly has a glimmer of hope.

Perhaps, Jiangnan Province really won't come in last.

"This mock exam is also an opportunity for you; this year's mock exam will have the heads of first-rate martial arts academies from all of Daxia coming to observe, and even the heads of the five great academies!"

"If they take a liking to you... being early admitted is not excessive!"

The moment Jiang Shang said that, many people's breathing began to become a bit hurried.

Early admission!

You know, the purpose of taking the college entrance exam is originally to enter a martial arts academy, and if one can be early admitted, it is naturally a very good thing.

Afterwards, there won't be too much pressure.

For a moment, even Ou Yang Ningxue, a woman of calm temperament, revealed a determined gaze.

Su Yu even raised his eyebrows slightly.

For Su Yu, early admission or not doesn't matter; he is definitely going to Qianlong Academy.

After all, that is the teacher's arrangement.

"I don't know if the head of Qianlong Academy will come; I'm somewhat looking forward to it."

Su Yu murmured softly in his heart.

To have a teacher as strong as that recommend the academy, the people inside that academy probably aren't that simple.

Even the five great academies, the Slay Dragon King has never praised them so highly!

Seeing the reactions of the crowd, Jiang Shang's mouth curled into a slight smile.

Having a reaction is good enough.

Immediately, Jiang Shang waved his hand.

"Alright, pack up, get ready to depart!"

At the same time, in Shu region.

Inside the Yun family's manor.

The Yun family patriarch sat on the upper hall, while below sat the Yun family's prominent figures.

Those who can enter this hall are at least experts of the Flying Heaven Realm.

Among them, the strongest even includes an existence of the Grand Master Realm.

That is the one who previously dueled with Wang Long in Jiangnan Province.

Including the Yun family patriarch, despite the loss of one Grand Master, the Yun family still has a Grand Master.

Thus, the Yun family, as the top family of Shu region, truly lives up to its reputation.

"The mock exam is in these few days; what do you all think?"

The Yun family head spoke lightly.

I heard this mock exam is not simple; officials from the martial arts academy have come, and if Xiu'er can catch their eyes, it would be a good thing for our Yun family.

That's right, especially now that we have offended the Slay Dragon King; only if Xiu'er enters the Five Great Academies can we ensure our Yun family won't suffer his wrath.

Although the Slay Dragon King is powerful, the Five Great Academies are not to be trifled with; even the Slay Dragon King has to give them some face.

The people below were discussing heatedly.

Among the crowd, several youths in white robes stood; the leading youth had an icy countenance and brows like a Sword, exuding a heroic and spirited air.

But that icy expression seemed somewhat out of place with his demeanor.

This person is the Yun family's heaven‑chosen prodigy, Yun Xiu!

He is also the elder brother of Yun Qi!

Although his name sounds somewhat feminine, to underestimate him because of it would be the biggest trouble!

The Yun family head sat in his seat, brows furrowed.

After a moment, he slowly spoke.

"I once went to see the Southern King..."

"Head, what did the Southern King say!"

The Yun family's white-clothed Grand Master hurriedly spoke.

The Yun family head gave a bitter laugh.

"He was refused."

Instantly, the entire hall fell into a deathly stillness.

"However..."

The Yun family head spoke again, and everyone turned their gaze.

"The Southern King also sent someone with two words."

"What two words?"

"Rules!"

A flash of light burst from the Yun family head's eyes.

"As long as we follow the rules, even the Slay Dragon King cannot act against our Yun family!"

He slowly looked toward Yun Xiu, his eyes profound beyond measure.

"Xiu'er, do you understand?"

"This mock exam..."

Yun Xiu faced the Yun family head directly, then revealed a cruel smile.

"Yun Xiu... understood!"

"This mock exam... will let Su Yu be buried here!"
