The center of the Yufeng Pavilion was the most flourishing place in the entire Yufeng Pavilion. Each and every one of the palaces stood at the peak of Fuyun Mountain like a tower to the heavens. From time to time, the clouds would float above the palaces, making the entire place look like a fairyland. This was the true heart of the Yufeng Pavilion. "Main Pavilion."
At this moment, in a luxurious hall in the main pavilion, a young girl was leaning on the railing of the balcony, looking at the beautiful scenery of Floating Clouds Mountain. As the gentle breeze blew her soft hair, her pure and lovely face would appear. Coupled with her enchanting physique and unique temperament, she was like a celestial that had fallen into the mortal world at the peak of Floating Clouds Mountain, attracting people's attention.
As for this person, she was none other than the young woman whose spring scenery had been stolen by Xing Xing. The most outstanding disciple of the Yufeng Pavilion, "Li Xiaohan."
The sound of footsteps could be heard from the staircase as a slender and elegant young woman slowly walked up to Li Xiaohan's side. "Young miss, I've found the person you asked me to look into."
"Oh." Li Xiaohan was jolted awake from her daze at the sound of the young woman's voice. Turning around to walk into the hall, she asked, "Xiao Yue, how long until the Cabinet Exam and who has the highest chance of becoming the champion?"
"There's still a month until the Cabinet Exam. The one with the highest chance of becoming the champion is Bai Yunfei." The young woman replied.
"Then how strong is Bai Yunfei?" Li Xiaohan's eyebrows furrowed together at the mention of Bai Yunfei.
"Bai Yunfei has already been in the Pavilion for three years. This person has been concentrating on training. Last year, he reached the Martial Ancestor level. However, he did not participate in last year's Cabinet Examination. This shows that he is quite ambitious. Clearly, his goal is to become the champion of this Cabinet Examination. Now, he has already reached the level of a middle-level Martial Ancestor," the young girl said in an orderly manner.
Li Xiaohan was silent for a moment after hearing about Bai Yunfei. Then, a charming smile appeared on her face. "Prepare some clothes for me, I'll be taking a trip to the outer pavilion."
In the outer pavilion, there was a rather luxurious building with the words "Xing Manor" written on top of it. This was where Xing Jue lived. Xing Jue was now a famous figure in the outer pavilion and had even earned the favor of the elder, so his living conditions were naturally skyrocketing.
At this moment, a large number of disciples were gathered in the plaza outside Xing Jue's manor. Most of them were disciples who had just joined the outer pavilion. Because they were often bullied by the older disciples and had heard that Xing Jue was a person who liked to fight injustice, they wanted to join Xing Jue. Originally, Xing Jue didn't want to get involved in this kind of business, but the Four-eyed King liked it so he had no choice but to reluctantly accept them. However, the Four-eyed King was in charge of everything and Xing Jue was only the leader in name.
Some of these people were exchanging pointers, some were chatting idly, but it made the entrance of the Xing Manor extremely lively. Some of the more cowardly disciples didn't dare to walk past the entrance of the Xing Manor, afraid of provoking them. After all, the master of this place was one of the four heavenly kings of the outer pavilion.
In the middle of the crowd, there was a bespectacled youth who was currently competing with two middle stage Martial Masters. This was the Four-eyed King. Unknowingly, the Four-eyed King and Xing Jue had already been in the outer pavilion for half a year. In this half a year, the Four-eyed King had even broken through to the level of a high stage Martial Master. Furthermore, after going through Xing Jue's training, the cowardly character of the Four-eyed King had been completely swept away.
"Big Brother Four-eyed, please let us go. We'll submit, alright?" A disciple said while crying. It was obvious that with his strength as a middle stage Martial Master, he had suffered quite a bit when fighting against the Four-eyed King.
"How dare you call me Four-eyed? What's your name? "After hearing the name Four-eyed, the Four-eyed King was clearly displeased and shouted with his originally small eyes.
Four-eyed was actually the nickname given to him by Xing Jue. His real name was not this, but under Xing Jue's lead, the people around him all called him that.
"Alright … That … Who knows what Big Brother Four-eyed's name is?" Seeing the Four-eyed King's displeasure, the disciple hurriedly replied. However, after thinking for a long time, he realized that he didn't even know what Four-eyed's name was. Thus, he suddenly asked loudly.
"I don't know!"
"Hahahahaha …" Everyone suddenly replied in unison before bursting into laughter.
"Sigh …" The Four-eyed King shook his head helplessly. To think that his father had given him such a carefree name. Now, it was actually useless.
"Big Brother Four-eyed, look at those two. They are so strange!" Suddenly, a disciple came to the Four-eyed King's side and pointed at two people who were continuously walking towards the Xing Manor.
Not only were the two people not wearing the blue robes of the outer pavilion, they were instead wearing black cloaks. The hats on the cloaks covered their faces completely. Furthermore, the Four-eyed King could not sense any aura from them at all. Thus, the Four-eyed King guessed that the two of them were definitely stronger than him.
"Look, they're heading towards the Xing Manor!" A disciple shouted loudly.
"Go, inform the elders. We'll go stop them!" The Four-eyed King felt that something was wrong and hurriedly said to a disciple beside him. Immediately after, he led the group and ran over.
"Hey, hey, hey. Is the Xing Manor a place where you can enter?" A disciple was the first to run to the gates of the Xing Jue Manor and angrily shouted at the two of them.
"Are you new here? What's wrong with you? You actually dare not wear a robe? Do you know the rules? " At this moment, the Four-eyed King's group had already surrounded the two of them. One of the pretentious disciples stepped forward and gesticulated as he spoke.
"Scram!" Seeing that they were surrounded, one of the black-robed men suddenly shouted in an extremely hoarse voice, "Scram!" At the same time, an extremely tyrannical and formless pressure spread out with him as the center.
Without any movements or using any martial skills, with just a thought, the Four-eyed King's group was blown away like a group of weak old people.
"You … you … you … just who are you?!" Even though he was already a high ranked Martial Master, the Four-eyed King was still blown away by this tyrannical pressure. He fell heavily to the ground after being blown several meters away. Even though he looked tough on the outside, he was secretly cursing in his heart. This guy's strength is too terrifying. He's not someone we can stop.
The two of them completely ignored the Four-eyed King and directly walked towards the gates of the Xing Manor.
"Stop! Who are you people?!" At this moment, an Outer Academy Elder ran over and pointed at the black-robed man while shouting angrily. Not wearing a long robe in the Imperial Wind Pavilion was a serious matter. As an Elder, he would naturally not allow it.
Faced with the elder's question, the black-robed man who released the pressure didn't even pause for half a step. Instead, he directly walked into the Xing Manor.
After the black-robed man walked in, the other black-robed man stood outside the Xing Manor. Everyone understood what he meant. This meant that this place was forbidden from entering.
"I'm talking to you. Didn't you hear me?" Seeing that the two of them didn't even bother talking to him, the elder was furious. As an elder in the outer pavilion, there weren't many disciples that dared to be so rude to him.
But just as the elder was about to flip out, the black-robed man suddenly lifted his black robe and a golden token appeared in front of the elder. Looking at the token, the elder's expression immediately changed. For a moment, he couldn't even speak.
"Tell them not to come near here." Another hoarse voice rang out from the black-robed man.
"Yes, yes, yes …" After hearing the black-robed man's words, the elder suddenly reacted and hurriedly responded. His voice was filled with humility.
The elder turned around and suddenly shouted at the four-eyed man and the others, "Four-eyed, tell them not to come near here."
When the four-eyed man and the others saw this scene, they were even more confused.
They thought to themselves, 'Who could make the elder so afraid of this person?' It was obvious that he was here for Big Brother Xing Jue. Could it be that Big Brother Xing Jue offended someone? Voices of guesses began to spread out …
In a rather spacious room in the Xing Mansion, Xing Jue was currently cultivating with his eyes closed. Xing Jue was sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed, his hands forming a strange hand sign. A large amount of golden Martial Qi was continuously pouring into his body. As the Martial Qi continued to pour into his body, Xing Jue's body actually began to faintly emit a golden light. Approximately two hours later, the light slowly dissipated.
After taking a few deep breaths and feeling the abundant Martial Qi in his body, only then did Xing Jue slowly open his eyes. He sighed and said, "I still can't break through?"
In the past six months, Xing Jue hadn't been lazy in his cultivation at all. A month ago, he had already reached the peak of Beginner Martial Master. However, he had been unable to make a breakthrough. From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to advance from Martial Master to Intermediate Martial Master. It was no wonder that the three family heads of the Cloud Sect City were only Intermediate Martial Masters after so many years of cultivation.
"Dong, dong, dong." Suddenly, a series of hurried knocks sounded …
"Come in." Xing Jue replied.
"Creak." After the tightly shut door was pushed open, a black-cloaked man whose face couldn't even be seen appeared in front of Xing Jue.
Looking at this strange fellow in front of him, Xing Jue's face was filled with helplessness. He thought to himself, "Who's so bored as to act mysterious in front of me?"
"Aiyo, this young man seems to be living a good life." Before Xing Jue could speak, a voice as pleasant as a wind chime suddenly rang out. Then, with a wave of her left hand, the hat that was originally covering her face was lifted off. A beautiful face that could cause the downfall of a nation appeared in front of Xing Jue. Looking at this stunning beauty in front of him, Xing Jue's originally sleepy face was instantly filled with joy.
