Everyone's heart skipped a beat. They looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
They had studied the Seeking Passion Ancient Scroll for a long time, but apart from great grief and sorrow, they didn't comprehend anything else. It was clear that Shangguan Haitang's talent and opportunities were above theirs.
Ding Yuan looked at Yang Qingxuan with joy. "Did you come to me for a sword duel?"
His understanding of sword intent had deepened after their last duel. After watching Yang Qingxuan and Ye Mingchuan's battle, he vaguely felt that Yang Qingxuan's sword intent was above his own.
He had been thinking about this for the past few days and was eager to fight again. Even if Yang Qingxuan hadn't come to him, he would've gone to find Yang Qingxuan in a few days.
Yang Qingxuan smiled. "We can duel anytime. I came to find Sir Dean and couldn't find him anywhere, so I guessed he was here. As expected, I want to ask for something from Sir Dean. "
Qing Buli asked curiously, "What is it?"
Yang Qingxuan said word by word, "The Desolate Heaven Art of Emptiness."
Qing Buli was stunned. Lu Jiangpeng and Wu Hao were also quite surprised, their faces full of doubt.
Qing Buli smiled. "The Desolate Heaven Art of Emptiness is a treasure, but it's difficult to comprehend the medieval secret text. Even if I give you the portion I've already comprehended, you'll only be able to open the Void Heaven Ancient Path. What's the point of learning it?"
Lu Jiangpeng's expression changed slightly. "Don't tell me you still want to enter the Void Heaven Ancient Path? You can only enter that place once and your aura will be left behind. If you enter a second time, you'll attract a destructive disaster. "
Qing Buli said seriously, "That's right. The Void Heaven Ancient Path is very beneficial to cultivation, but unfortunately, one can only enter once in their lifetime. I advise you to give up on the ancient path."
Yang Qingxuan said, "I know what I'm doing and will act according to my abilities. I hope Sir Dean can bestow the art upon me."
Qing Buli looked a little embarrassed. He beckoned Lu Jiangpeng and Wu Hao to the side and discussed in low voices for a while.
Yang Qingxuan waited patiently at the side.
It didn't take long for the three of them to finish their discussion. Qing Buli said, "You can study the Art of Void, but you have to stay on the seventh floor. You're not allowed to leave."
Yang Qingxuan was overjoyed. He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Dean."
Qing Buli smiled. "Also, I have another condition. Your battle with Zuo Heng must be canceled."
Yang Qingxuan's face changed and he said, "No! Since this battle has already been promised, how can it be canceled?! "He then asked," Is this Zuo Heng's idea? "
Qing Buli shook his head. "This is my idea, the elders' idea, and His Majesty's."
Yang Qingxuan immediately understood. After all, Zuo Heng was a genius of the Zuo Clan. If he died in battle, the shock would be too great. Moreover, he had killed Ye Mingchuan, which had already caused the various powers to worry.
Yang Qingxuan sneered. "Did you have any intention of canceling this battle a year ago?"
Lu Jiangpeng said, "Qingxuan, I wasn't worried about this battle at all because your strength was too far from Zuo Heng's. Even if you won the bet for me, I didn't think you'd be able to defeat Zuo Heng. My idea back then was simple — cancel the battle. I mentioned it to Wu Gojoseon. "
Qing Buli admitted, "When you came out of the Void Heaven Ancient Path with a purple martial soul, I already decided to cancel the battle. Zuo Heng is a member of the Zuo Clan. As long as His Majesty puts pressure on the Zuo Clan, the battle can be left unsettled. Now it's up to you. "
Yang Qingxuan said, "I agreed to the battle when I wasn't strong enough. Now that I have the strength to fight, I'm going to shrink back? What kind of logic is this? It's impossible to cancel the battle. "
Lu Jiangpeng said, "I thought you were young and frivolous back then, which was why you fearlessly agreed to the battle. Who knew your talent would be so terrifying? In just a short year, you actually have the strength to defeat Zuo Heng. If I make Zuo Heng swear that he'll never bother Wu Qiyue again and give up this thought, will you agree? "
Yang Qingxuan laughed. "Haha, if Zuo Heng agrees, then where would his Dao heart be? How would he continue to cultivate in the future? Besides, although this battle started because of Qiyue, it's still a battle between men. It has nothing to do with women! "
Qing Buli sighed, "Qingxuan, why must you be so stubborn and make things difficult for everyone?"
Yang Qingxuan said coldly, "Dean, you must be joking. Who's the one making things difficult for whom? If this is the condition of the Void Desolate Heaven Art, then there's no need to talk about it. "
Lu Jiangpeng said, "Qingxuan, don't get too worked up. We can talk about this later. I'll take you to study the Void Desolate Heaven Art. There's still half a month before the Hidden Dragon Ranking Battle, I wonder if you … "
Yang Qingxuan said, "There's no room for discussion about the matter between Zuo Heng and me. As for the ranking battle, I have no interest in it. "
Lu Jiangpeng said, "No, you must participate. The Five Nations Grand Tournament is held once every five years. Only the top five of the Hidden Dragon Ranking can participate. I hope you can represent Tiancong Academy in the battle. "
Ding Yuan narrowed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
"The Five Nations Grand Tournament?"
Yang Qingxuan frowned and nodded. "Alright, then I'll participate."
Lu Jiangpeng said, "There's one more thing. After all, the Five Nations Grand Tournament is very important. We hope that Wu Qiyue …"
Yang Qingxuan understood. He sighed, "Qiyue won't participate and I won't force her. However, I'll pass on Elder Lu's message to her."
Ding Yuan listened from the side. The figure of that peerless beauty flashed across his mind. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised. He already felt that the girl wasn't simple. Now, it seemed that it was true.
Lu Jiangpeng nodded. "If she's unwilling, we naturally can't force her. However, if she's willing, she can raise any conditions to the academy."
Yang Qingxuan's heart moved. This might be a good opportunity. He said, "I'll pass it on to her."
Qing Buli said, "You Ye can no longer participate in the Five Nations Grand Tournament. If you and Qiyue are there, I can rest assured. If it's just one person, this old man's heart is still hanging in suspense. "
Ding Yuan sneered and said disdainfully, "Hmph."
Qing Buli ignored him. "I'll register for the ranking battle for you. You can follow Elder Lu to study the Void Desolate Heaven Art."
Yang Qingxuan cupped his fists and bid farewell to everyone. He said to Ding Yuan, "We'll have to compete again another day."
Ding Yuan said, "It's fine."
Lu Jiangpeng then led Yang Qingxuan away.
The two flew all the way. When they were about to reach the library, Lu Jiangpeng suddenly stopped.
Lu Jiangpeng turned around. "Do you still remember that I won a metal box from Dugu Xin after the wagered battle?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "I remember."
Lu Jiangpeng's ring flashed and the big metal box appeared in his hand. He passed it to him and said, "I'll give this box to you for safekeeping."
Yang Qingxuan was shocked. "Why?"
