"Teacher!"
The students of Alioth Peak surrounded him one after another. Some were surprised, some were angry. They weren't worried. No one believed that a newcomer could injure Li Yaotian from such a far distance. However, this punch still reached here. Li Yaotian's students were very clear on what this meant.
However, the method of this punch was shocking. What kind of ability was this? They were students of the North Style Academy and the students of the Seventh Academician, yet they couldn't see through it.
"It seems like a sound transmission … …" Someone mumbled, then immediately shut up. Sound transmission was a low-level ability. How could it penetrate Li Yaotian's "Vanishing End"? This guess was not up to standard.
"It seems a bit like sound transmission." Li Yaotian actually nodded his head, expressing his approval of this out-of-standard guess. As he spoke, he turned around and finally retreated from the position he had been standing at for an entire day. He handed the two halves of the rice bowl to the bewildered Chen Chu.
"Bring the two of them up!" Li Yaotian instructed Chen Chu. With another wave of his other hand, the vast energy of soul in the mountain began to gradually fade and thin until it completely disappeared.
"Yes." Chen Chu accepted the order. However, he didn't know what to do with the rice in his hands, so he could only hold it like this.
On the mountain road, even though Zi Mu was only in the realm of perception and was in a very weak state, he could still feel the astonishing power of Lu Ping's punch. The energy of the soul from this punch was so dense that it seemed tangible. Then, it spread throughout the entire mountain.
"What are you doing?" Zi Mu was dumbstruck. He saw that Lu Ping was looking at the peak of Alkaid Peak. However, this time, the expression in his eyes was different. The direction of the punch was also in that direction.
"You … … can't be!" Zi Mu vaguely guessed something and immediately jumped in fright. He took a step back and almost fell on his butt.
"Can't be what?" Lu Ping asked as he retracted his fist. However, he immediately felt that the energy of the soul around him was slowly dissipating.
Zi Mu was clearly at a loss and could only bitterly ask, "You attacked Li Yaotian, didn't you?"
"Probably," Lu Ping said.
Zi Mu sat down on the ground. Academicians of Big Dipper. In his eyes, that person was so sacred that he did not dare to look at him directly. In the end, this guy, Lu Ping, actually swung his fist at him?
"You are really my brother," Zi Mu said with a sobbing tone. At this moment, a streak of light suddenly flew up from the Alkaid Peak, drawing a beautiful trajectory in the night sky. Then, it fell straight in front of Lu Ping and Zi Mu. However, the person who came was not as carefree as he had been. He had an awkward expression on his face, and his right hand was holding a bowl of rice. The bowl was split in half, and the vegetable soup that had been poured over the rice had soaked through the rice and seeped out from the bottom of the broken bowl, drenching his hands.
"Cough." Chen Chu coughed softly, smiled awkwardly at Lu Ping and Zi Mu, and said, "Follow me!"
"Where to?" Zi Mu asked subconsciously.
"The summit," Chen Chu said.
"Did we … pass?" Zi Mu asked, suppressing the ecstasy in his heart.
"You'll know soon enough," Chen Chu said. He really couldn't guess how these two Li Yaotian would decide, just like how he didn't expect Li Yaotian to take over his job today.
As he spoke, he walked to the front to lead the way. When he walked past Zi Mu. "How do I address you, Senior Martial Brother?" he asked in a polite manner.
"Oh, my name is Chen Chu." Chen Chu said, "If you pass the trial and become a disciple of Alioth Peak, then call me Eldest Senior Brother."
Zi Mu immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. He had never expected that the person who had appeared in front of them in a sorry state to be the head disciple of Alioth Peak, Chen Chu. As an experienced and knowledgeable student of the Eastern Capital Academy, his understanding of the North Style Academy was not limited to the seven academicians. A top student like Chen Chu was also a famous xiuzhe. His fame and strength were ranked in the top of the entire continent.
The four great academies were different from ordinary academies. Here, there was no common definition of graduating in four years. It was possible to train under the four great academies for the rest of their lives. One of the six great experts, Lu Chenfeng, was still in the North Style Academy. However, he was not one of the seven academicians, nor did he accept disciples. If one were to define it accurately, he was still a student of the North Style Academy. And he was indeed like a student, diligently studying the realm of linking the five elements, striving for a breakthrough.
Because of this, the North Style Academy was the only academy among the four great academies that possessed a master of linking the five elements. Although Lu Chenfeng never cared about worldly affairs, he was still regarded as a mountain suppressing figure. After all, he was one of the six peak experts of the continent. No matter what, he couldn't be ignored. As for how much of a reliance he would become for the North Style Academy, it was hard to say. After all, no one dared to probe him. And the North Style Academy only relied on his existence to have a much louder voice in the interactions between the four great academies.
"Let's go, why are you in a daze?" Chen Chu hadn't even walked two steps when he noticed that Zi Mu was in a daze. He turned his head and shouted. Lu Ping, who hadn't spoken a word, was very calm. If Li Yaotian didn't know him, then he naturally had no impression of the head disciple of Alioth Peak, Chen Chu.
At the summit of Alkaid Peak, dinner had already ended. Those newcomers who couldn't pass the newcomer's trial were hinted that they could leave the mountain. But since there was no forceful request, these newcomers didn't move. Although failure was already a foregone conclusion, they were still very concerned about the results of the last two. As for the other newcomers who passed the trial, they were in a good mood. Naturally, they were even more interested in watching the fate of others. The atmosphere at the summit was quite relaxed. Regardless of whether they passed the trial or not, for the newcomers, it was still a relief.
At this moment, Lu Ping and Zi Mu were finally brought to the summit by Chen Chu. Under the gaze of the newcomers, they were brought in front of Li Yaotian.
Lu Ping wasn't a big deal. The last punch made everyone realize how extraordinary he was. But what about Zi Mu? He was a weakling from head to toe. It was only because of Lu Ping's help that he was able to reach his current state. How could this be considered as passing the trial? Those who had passed the trial were only curious about it, but those who had failed found a chance of survival from Zi Mu. If such a fellow could pass the trial, then perhaps they could also find a reason to pass the trial?
Everyone's gaze gathered on the two of them. Zi Mu was rather uneasy, but he still tried his best to straighten his back. On the other hand, Lu Ping was calm from start to finish. He maintained the same level of weakness as Zi Mu.
Li Yaotian looked at the two of them and quickly opened his mouth.
"The two of you have some regrets." He said.
