"Let's go, let's go try too."

In front of the Slash Zhan Zhan Feng Quan stone tablet, Li Yun suddenly rose and said to his younger sister beside him.

Li Li Zhining's eyes moved slightly, she put away her slightly turning small hand, and nodded.

She had actually already comprehended a few true meanings and felt that she had already entered, but she didn't rise to test immediately, but was waiting.

Waiting for her brother to also master it.

Ever since she became sensible, she had noticed that her brother was becoming increasingly impatient in cultivation.

Having spent a long time together on weekdays, she could also faintly perceive her brother's thoughts in her heart.

There were three siblings in the family. Her and her eldest sister's talent were both higher than her brother's. The eldest sister didn't need to be mentioned; she had joined a famous master since she was young. But she and her brother remained in the courtyard, and it was inevitable that they were always compared and praised by the people around them.

And Li Yun, who was the brother, was the one with the worst cultivation talent among the three siblings. This led to the fact that every time her cultivation progress exceeded her brother's in the martial arts arena, her brother would practice extra hard, practicing wildly all night...

"Let's go."

Li Yun patted his butt and rose. His gaze swept, and he saw a familiar figure at another part of the stone tablet, which was Li Li Yuanzhao.

But at this moment, the latter was fully focused on contemplating and didn't notice him, just as he didn't know when the other party had arrived.

Subconsciously looking beside Li Li Yuanzhao, he didn't see Li Hao's figure, and couldn't help but frown.

But he didn't pay much attention. He snorted coldly in his heart and led his younger sister toward the center of the square.

"If the practice is not qualified, go back and practice again," Li Yun said to his younger sister.

Li Li Zhining nodded slightly.

In front of the middle-aged man, five people were practicing at this moment, and there were still some onlookers standing outside, trying to find inspiration and reference from the moves practiced by others.

Suddenly, the siblings saw a familiar figure also standing among them, which was Li Hao.

"Him?"

Li Li Zhining was confused.

"He must have run over to steal a look and observe,"

Li Yun raised his eyebrows, a cold sneer appearing at the corner of his eyes. Although he didn't know when Li Hao had come over, he had definitely arrived later than them. He didn't even have the confidence to master it, let alone the latter.

Outside the field, Li Hao was waiting quietly. His extraordinary perception made him notice the person approaching from behind, but he didn't look back, nor did he pay attention.

Having taken the initiative to greet many times, only to be met with avoidance and dodging, he knew at that time that the siblings who ran to the courtyard every day to listen to stories were gone.

Very quickly, the practice in the field ended.

Only three out of the five passed, while the other two were still lacking in heat, failing to enter, and their postures were inaccurate.

"Let's go."

Li Yun led his younger sister forward, facing the middle-aged man who was a head taller than him, his expression still arrogant: "We are contemplating the Slash Zhan Zhan Feng Quan."

Recognizing their identities from their attire, the middle-aged man nodded slightly, revealing a smile: "Please practice."

The siblings immediately opened up a stance to display. Very quickly, a set of fist techniques was finished.

When Li Yun turned around, his waist didn't move, and the power of his whole body didn't reach his fist, causing the momentum to be slightly weaker.

The middle-aged man was secretly astonished in his heart and asked: "How long have you been contemplating?"

"Half a day," Li Yun said calmly, but there was a bit of arrogance in his eyes. He faintly felt that he seemed to have made a small mistake, and the result might not be very good.

But after all, he had only contemplated for half a day.

The original Class A admission required three days of contemplation. His progress, he thought, must have been very amazing...

"Amazing!"

Sure enough, as Li Yun thought, the middle-aged man in front of him let out a sigh of slight amazement, which made the corner of the young man's mouth rise slightly without him realizing it...

"Little girl, you have already entered and passed."

The middle-aged man took out a waist token from his waist and handed it to Li Li Zhining beside him.

Li Yun was stunned.

"Your fist technique is still lacking in heat. Practice more, and I reckon you will be able to master it very soon," the middle-aged man said to Li Yun.

Li Yun's face was slightly embarrassed. He turned to look at his younger sister: "When did you comprehend it?"

Li Li Zhining put away the waist token and hurriedly said: "Just now."

In fact, she didn't lie either. It was indeed comprehended not long ago, at most half an hour ago.

"Half a day to enter an Upper Grade cultivation technique. Geniuses like you are not common in Class A," the middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Does that mean there are others who can do it?" Li Yun's face changed slightly.

"There were a few yesterday," the middle-aged man said with a smile. The quality of disciples recruited this time was very excellent, slightly stronger than previous sessions.

Li Yun felt a burning sensation on his cheeks, and his fists clenched unconsciously.

At this time, the middle-aged man's gaze noticed the figure walking over. Looking up, it was also someone from the Divine General's Mansion. He immediately smiled and said: "You also came to practice?"

"Mm."

Li Hao nodded.

The siblings heard this, but couldn't help but look at Li Hao. Li Yun suddenly felt much better in his heart. No matter what, there was still someone to cushion the fall.

"Please," the middle-aged man signaled.

Li Hao was also very straightforward, raised his hand and waved two punches. The fist strength was like a saber, with a faint iron blade slashing sound.

The middle-aged man's face changed drastically, looking at Li Hao in shock.

Li Hao had already withdrawn his fist and said: "Is it okay?"

The middle-aged man came to his senses and couldn't help but say: "You came yesterday?"

"Today."

"..."

The middle-aged man was slightly stunned, and another possibility emerged in his heart, which made his heart suddenly stern, not daring to think deeply. He immediately took out a waist token and handed it to Li Hao: "This is the Class A waist token." The waist token was white, but one side had black characters, Class A.

Li Hao took it, looked at it, put it away casually, said thank you, and turned away, leaving behind two pairs of slightly astonished gazes.

"He, does he also count as passing?"

After Li Hao walked far away, Li Yun couldn't help but say.

The middle-aged man withdrew his gaze, looked at him, and nodded: "His Slash Zhan Zhan Feng Quan is at least at the nimble level, or even... perfected."

Li Hao's demonstration was too short, and he couldn't judge the specific level.

But there was no doubt that he had definitely entered.

"Nimble? How is that possible!" Li Yun stared.

He knew that the other party had come out of the mansion with them today, and had gone up the mountain later than him. How could he comprehend it to the nimble level in such a short time?! His younger sister had also only just entered! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look back at that departing figure, unable to believe it.

Li Li Zhining looked at that departing back in a daze, and memories of some adults' praise for Li Hao in the courtyard suddenly surged up: "That child is really smart."

"That's right, he's really precocious. Never seen such a smart child; he understands everything with one point."

"It's a pity he can only cultivate the body, otherwise, such a smart brain would definitely be a top-tier prodigy in the future."

That's right... The adults only said his cultivation limit was low, but no one had ever said he wasn't smart enough.

The little girl gently bit her lip and slightly tightened the waist token in her hand.

"I'm here."

Li Hao ran quickly and returned to the two old men.

Seeing the Class A waist token in his hand, both were enlightened. Shen Shen Yunqing smiled and said: "Congratulations."

"Senior, you are too polite." Li Hao smiled slightly, then said: "Shall we... play another game?"

This kid... The two looked at each other, speechless in their hearts. How come they felt that this kid's addiction to playing chess was greater than his addiction to practicing martial arts to enter Class A?

"Fine, play another game." Zhao Zhao Zongyuan had already reviewed the previous chess game and knew his omissions, so he had the courage to fight again at this moment.

Li Hao was happy in his heart, and immediately sat down: "Senior, please."

The two began to slaughter each other on the chessboard again.

To avoid the other party stopping the game, Li Hao didn't attack too fiercely, just pulling and dragging slowly, and then winning with a weak advantage.

Thus, such an interesting scene appeared on the square. Other disciples were all contemplating and practicing hard in front of the stone tablets, sweating like rain.

In the corner, a young man was fighting fiercely with the two old men on the chessboard, from time to time hearing Zhao Zhao Zongyuan's angry shouts, as well as Shen Shen Yunqing's loud laughter, attracting quite a few gazes from other disciples who had entered the academy.

Seeing that peculiar scene, quite a few people had a few strange looks in their eyes.

"You kid, were you playing chess since you were in your mother's womb!"

Losing in a hurry, Zhao Zhao Zongyuan was so angry he wanted to throw the pieces.

Li Hao smiled.

Shen Shen Yunqing asked curiously: "Your chess skills must have taken quite a bit of thought. How do you practice on weekdays?"

That's how I practice... Li Hao said in his heart, but on the surface, he just giggled foolishly.

While playing chess, the two old men chatted with Li Hao about some things in the academy.

"Kid, do you know that a prince enrolled yesterday and also entered Class A? I heard he only took one hour to comprehend the cultivation technique."

"That young lady from the Nangong family also came. Her talent is also quite terrifying. I heard she's not even the strongest in her family's generation."

"Kid, these are all your opponents in Class A in the future. You must pay attention."

Facing the two old men's care, Li Hao felt a headache and said to the two: "Can't we just focus on playing chess?"

"..."

Both old men stared.

They had quite a good impression of this kid, so they specifically informed him, but the other party didn't even want to listen?

Play chess, play chess, so you came to the Tan Palace Academy just to play chess!

Zhao Zhao Zongyuan was so angry he became serious again, fully focused, but after a while, his face turned ashen, and he was defeated by a weak gap...

The sun was setting behind the western hills. Li Hao was playing intently when he suddenly heard a voice beside him: "Brother Hao?"

Li Hao turned his head to look. It was Li Li Yuanzhao, who was looking at him cautiously.

"Hm?"

"I got the waist token," Li Li Yuanzhao said. They arrived late, and he also contemplated for half a day.

"Oh." Li Hao nodded, not feeling it was strange. This kid's talent was equivalent to Li Li Zhining's. Don't look at him as naive, but there was a cunning light in his small eyes; he was very smart.

"That... they are waiting for us at the foot of the mountain to go back to the mansion together. Brother Hao, look..."

"Let them go back first, we'll go back later," Li Hao said.

Opposite, the two old men's faces turned black. This kid is addicted to winning, right?

"Stop playing, stop playing." Zhao Zhao Zongyuan waved his hand: "It's getting late, you go back first."

"It's fine, I can see."

"You kid..." The two were made to laugh or cry by Li Hao. Shen Shen Yunqing said: "That's it for today. If you want to play chess, let's compete again after school starts."

Li Hao still wanted to continue, but seeing that the two old men seemed to have lost their interest, he had no choice but not to force them, and said: "Fine, many thanks to the two seniors for the hospitality today."

After speaking, he placed a piece, establishing the victory of this game.

Watching the experience points he got, Li Hao smiled and rose, bowed slightly to the two, and then led Li Li Yuanzhao to walk down the mountain leisurely.

"There's actually such a kid in the Divine General's Mansion, truly strange." Watching the backs of the two young men leaving one after another, both had strange faces, looked at each other, and shook their heads with a smile.
