Chapter 38: Under the Vast Heaven, Is There Any Land That Is Not the King

In an instant, the area where Li Chen and Master Yu were located became the focus of the entire audience.

Originally, this was just a ceremony; no one had expected that as soon as Li Chen stepped off the carriage, he would release an unparalleled aura, with his Sage Realm aura on full display!

Quite a few people stared fixedly here; they just wanted to see what Master Yu would do.

Master Yu himself was somewhat confused; he instantly felt a huge pressure presented in front of him.

The surrounding nobles, ordinary commoners, and even this new Sage Realm Emperor, Li Chen, were all looking at him.

At this moment, he felt that Li Chen should take the initiative to greet him, and then let the people around him rise, which could avoid this heavy situation.

But the problem was, Li Chen didn't have this intention and just looked at him there.

At this moment, Master Yu understood; this Majesty needed an attitude from him.

He felt that the reason Li Chen released his Sage Realm aura as soon as he got off the carriage shouldn't just be to indicate that he was a Sage Realm expert.

Actually, Li Chen was doing it on purpose; successive Emperors, in order to stabilize the situation, naturally gave these top powerhouses three points of courtesy.

So, top powerhouses like Master Yu naturally didn't take imperial power too seriously.

They took the Emperor's humility as a matter of course.

Readers of the world all worshipped Master Yu and took Master Yu as a Sage.

In the eyes of the readers of the world, Master Yu's status was far above the Emperor.

Readers dared to scold the Emperor, but they didn't dare to scold Master Yu.

If it were other Emperors, they could only turn a blind eye; they were also afraid of offending the public opinion.

Li Chen was different; he just opened both eyes to look; in this Tian Ce Dynasty, who dared to disobey him!

If you invited me to drink tea privately, I wouldn't demand this of you.

Today is different; you invited me in my capacity as Emperor.

But this is a public occasion; whether it's commoners, nobles, or those powerful ministers, they are all watching.

I gave you face by coming, and you must also remember your identity.

I'm already in the Sage Realm; do I still need to indulge you all?

If you don't kneel, the world will think you can sit on equal footing with me!

At this moment, no one knew what Master Yu was thinking inside.

But the next second, Master Yu knelt on both knees and said in a deep voice: "Grass-roots Yu Zhong, pays respects to Your Majesty!"

Master Yu knelt!

Completely knelt in front of Li Chen!

His kneeling didn't just represent him, it also represented the readers of the world!

At this moment, the surrounding readers suddenly realized that above Master Yu, there was still an Emperor!

What is called 'Under the vast heaven, is there any land that is not the King's; within the borders of the land, is there anyone who is not the King's subject!'

This, was the best interpretation!

"Rise."

Li Chen personally stepped forward to help Master Yu up.

Master Yu also thanked him repeatedly, and this Yun Lu Academy ceremony was finally able to begin.

The most excited were the nobles and ministers, because their Majesty had already told the world that he was the supreme ruler of heaven and earth, and he was the common master of the world!

In this Tian Ce Dynasty, he had the final say!

If you, Master Yu, are not convinced, you can directly release your strength.

You see if our Sage Realm Majesty will finish you off.

Actually, to be honest, if Master Yu didn't have this awareness, I'm afraid this Yun Lu Academy would have been demolished by Li Chen.

And he, had such ability!

Subsequently, Li Chen slowly stepped into the simple and solemn gate of Yun Lu Academy, each step steady and powerful.

The officials followed closely behind, but didn't dare to overstep in the slightest; even the Sage Master Yu of Yun Lu Academy could only walk on the side behind Li Chen.

This move was not only respect for Li Chen, but also awe for the supreme imperial power.

The scene before them made some loyal old ministers somewhat emotional. Once upon a time, they had also followed the late Emperor here; at that time, Master Yu walked side by side with the late Emperor and even chatted and laughed.

The late Emperor invited Master Yu to join the court as an official several times, but Master Yu didn't give much face.

The majesty that the royal family lost in Yun Lu Academy, Li Chen was now completely taking back!

A faint smile hung on Li Chen's face, and his every move had a momentum of looking down on the world.

He walked slowly, and those scholars of the academy, those scholars who once prided themselves on their learning, all lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look directly at this supreme ruler of heaven and earth!

Especially those scholars who had spoken wildly about Li Chen in private, their hearts were even more terrified.

When Emperor Li Chen stepped into the gate of Yun Lu Academy, the commoners outside discussed it one after another; their faces were filled with excitement and respect, as if they had personally witnessed the incarnation of imperial majesty and martial prowess.

An elderly man stood up tremblingly, his eyes shining with admiration, and he said tremblingly: "I have lived to this age, today I have finally opened my eyes; His Majesty is truly a dragon walking the world, unparalleled in martial prowess!"

A young woman beside him holding a child, her eyes full of adoration and awe, whispered to the child: "Child, you must remember his appearance; he is the wise monarch of our Tian Ce Dynasty!"

Not far away, a young royal family member sighed excitedly: "With such an Emperor, why worry that the Tian Ce Dynasty won't flourish! I dare say, our Tian Ce Dynasty will produce a monarch of ten thousand generations!"

From getting off the carriage to entering the academy, not many people could see Li Chen; these people either had high status or had arrived here very early.

!

The people behind all wanted to squeeze in to see how divine and martial the Emperor was, leading to a certain degree of chaos at the scene.

In this bustling crowd, the Chu family ancestor protected his clansmen and retreated.

Except for Chu Ruoyan, the others of the Chu family were seeing Li Chen for the first time.

The Chu family head didn't understand until he saw it just now why his proud daughter looked so soul-stirring after seeing His Majesty.

Young, handsome, terrifyingly strong, and his status was high beyond measure.

Let alone Chu Ruoyan, which woman could hold out?

The Chu family head felt that he had come early in the morning before dawn, and this trip was worth it!

Chu Ruoyan now had hearts in her eyes; it was her first time seeing Li Chen wearing a dragon robe, and that look of being the only one supreme in heaven and earth made her wet.

Some were happy, some were sad; Wu Qi had come early this morning, but when he arrived, it was crowded with people, and he couldn't squeeze in at all.

"My mom, these people probably came before dawn to occupy positions; I'm really convinced!"

Having missed an opportunity to lick Li Chen, he was very annoyed.

Wu Qi's cultivation was very high, and he was also a famous talent in the Imperial Capital.

But there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers around, powerhouses like clouds, and even Imperial Guards.

Wu Qi didn't have the ability to squeeze in.

Beside him, his sharp-tongued aunt Wu Nanzhi was lecturing him.

"Usually when you write letters home, don't you always brag about how well you're doing in the Imperial Capital? How come you can't even occupy a front-row position?"

"Told you to cultivate hard; look at your small frame, this weak strength, you were just squeezed out by someone; you have the nerve to call yourself a genius."

Facing his aunt's words, Wu Qi didn't dare to talk back.

Wu Nanzhi didn't see what the Emperor looked like, but she could feel the Emperor's Sage Realm strength, which was much stronger than Wu Qi's grandfather.

What she found strange was, why was this aura somewhat familiar?

The most proud was Liu Hao, who was a descendant of a great noble.

Although somewhat fallen, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Yesterday, Li Chen was going to Yun Lu Academy, so he had his father use various connections to sneak into the academy in advance.

As long as he found an opportunity, he would immediately start frantically licking Li Chen!
