Lin Xuan's unexpected acquisition of the Tempest Courtyard made him the target of envy.
The people from the Red Leaf Valley especially wanted to attack him.
However, they were stopped by the young and beautiful Lady Boss.
The Lady Boss was very forceful and chased away the people from the Red Leaf Valley. The seven beautiful girls looked unfriendly, but they seemed to be very wary of the Tempest Courtyard, so they did not attack.
However, before they left, Su Yue warned in a cold voice, "Brat, you dare to steal from my master. You're dead meat!"
"Master?" Everyone was shocked. These seven outstanding women were actually servants. Just how powerful was their master?
"Could he be a prodigy from the Red Leaf Valley?" Someone guessed.
However, no matter what, they all thought that Lin Xuan was dead meat!
Lin Xuan pursed his lips. Since he had already offended them, there was no need to be polite.
"Sure, we'll talk about this after you enter the Academy."
Then, he ignored the seven mad women and walked into the Tempest Courtyard with Yu Fei.
Only a group of envious rabbits was left behind.
The Tempest Courtyard was very large. It was equivalent to a small mansion. There were landscape gardens, pavilions, and towers. There was even a green lake in the center. It was very beautiful.
Lin Xuan and Yu Fei were each given a guest room and prepared to rest.
However, the young and beautiful Lady Boss came not long after. She carried a few dishes and a pot of spirit wine into Lin Xuan's room.
The Lady Boss was very young. Lin Xuan estimated that she was only 20 years old. Her snow-like skin was smoother than silk. Her long hair was black, and her big eyes were watery. When she smiled, it was as if she could speak.
The two sweet dimples on her cheeks made her even more adorable.
Lin Xuan was stunned when he saw this. He did not expect the Lady Boss to personally deliver food.
Moreover, combined with the previous incident, he felt that the Lady Boss seemed to want to get close to him.
This made him wary.
"How is it? Is your stay comfortable?" The young and beautiful Lady Boss asked.
"Come, try the dishes I cooked."
"What, do you want me to feed you?"
Lin Xuan: …
Finally, he sighed. "Tell me, what's your purpose?"
"Purpose?" The young and beautiful lady boss blinked. "Why do you think so?"
"You're willing to offend Red Leaf Valley to give me the Storm Courtyard. I'm afraid it's not just because of interest, right?"
"Sigh, you really don't have a conscience. I let you stay in a luxurious house and you still suspect others." The young and beautiful Lady Boss lightly snorted. "But to be honest, it really isn't because of Red Leaf Valley."
"Then why?"
"Because … I've seen you before."
"Where?"
In a painting, I didn't believe it at first. I didn't think that you really existed.
Lin Xuan: "…"
He didn't quite understand and wanted to ask for clarification.
However, the young and beautiful Lady Boss didn't seem to give him a chance. "Alright, enjoy your meal. I have to go. Wind Sweeping Restaurant is very busy. There are many things that need to be taken care of."
With that, she stood up and walked away, swaying her hips.
She pushed the door open and saw Yu Fei walking towards her.
The young and beautiful lady boss giggled and then left.
Yu Fei was stunned. Then, as if he understood something, he revealed a strange smile.
He ran into the room and closed the door. He said mysteriously, "Big brother Xuan, I admire you. You got it done so quickly!"
"Done? What did you get done?" Lin Xuan didn't understand.
"Done with the Lady Boss. Don't tell me that you two aren't having an affair. I won't believe it even if you beat me to death." Yu Fei had an "I know" look.
Lin Xuan: "…"
In the following days, Lin Xuan stayed in the Storm Courtyard to cultivate, while Yu Fei went out to gather information.
Although Yu Fei's strength was average, he was very good at gathering information.
Soon, he returned to Lin Xuan's room.
"Big brother Xuan, I got it."
"Oh!" Lin Xuan opened his eyes. "Let's hear it."
"Senmu College's assessment is divided into three categories: aptitude, strength, and willpower."
"Those who pass these three categories can enter Senmu College."
"If you're not a disciple in the internal test, the normal assessment rate is usually one in ten. Moreover, this is under the condition that all of you are geniuses. "
After listening to Yu Fei's explanation, Lin Xuan understood.
To put it bluntly, Senmu College wanted geniuses among geniuses.
"How many days do we start?"
"Three days."
"Also, according to my sources, there are many more geniuses this time than before. It seems that there's something in the school that's attracting them."
"But I don't know what it is exactly."
"More people?" Lin Xuan rubbed his chin. "You've already asked enough. We'll talk about the rest after I enter the school."
After that, Lin Xuan gave Yu Fei a sum of spirit stones to let him stay in Tianze City.
Of course, he didn't stay in the Storm Courtyard. It was too expensive. Even Lin Xuan felt pained by the price of the house.
During these three days, Lin Xuan wasn't the only one collecting information. Everyone else was doing the same.
Moreover, some of the experts were not only collecting information about the assessment, but also about their opponents.
Wind Sweeping Tower, Luofeng Courtyard.
A beautiful figure in white sat by the lake like a fairy. Beside her was a cute girl and a middle-aged scholar.
In front of her was a half-kneeling man in black.
The woman in white was Murong Qingcheng. She was also in Tianze City.
"How's the investigation going?"
"Miss, it's done. The few powerful people this time are all staying in Wind Sweeping Tower."
"Xiao Li from the Floating Life Courtyard. He's a genius from the Sand Region. He's good with sabers. He's estimated to be a first-layer Venerable."
"Lan Bai from the Lingyun Courtyard. He's good with poison. He once poisoned a Venerable to death. He seems to be related to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect."
"Shen Yaotian from the Sunset Courtyard. He's a first-layer Venerable. He's a disciple of the Shen Family."
"As for the Storm Courtyard, this person is very special. It's said that he was randomly chosen by the lady boss when he was fighting with others in the Red Leaf Valley."
"Randomly chosen?" Murong Qingcheng muttered. "Those who can enter this place are no ordinary people."
"What did you find out?"
"I haven't found anything yet. I only know that he's called Lin Xuan."
"Lin Xuan?" Murong Qingcheng was stunned. Then, she asked, "Is he a young man?"
"Yes."
"I didn't expect him to come here." Murong Qingcheng muttered. Then, she said, "Very well. You may leave."
"Yes!" The man in black left respectfully.
"He probably came to Senmu College because he heard that the Palace of Ares was closed," the Wild Palm Scholar said.
"Hmph, that despicable guy. I curse him that he can't pass the assessment!" Ling 'er huffed.
Murong Qingcheng was very happy. "This is great. After entering the college, there will be plenty of opportunities."
"I don't believe that he can reject this time!"
"Miss, although Lin Xuan is exceptionally talented, we still have to prioritize that matter," the Wild Palm Scholar reminded her.
"Don't worry, I know." Murong Qingcheng nodded. "If the news is true, it'll be too shocking."
"No matter what, I have to fight for that qualification!"
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Senmu College's assessment had begun.
The first round tested one's aptitude. It mainly examined one's physique, bloodline, talent, and other congenital conditions.
In this aspect, Lin Xuan's talent was outstanding. His comprehension was extremely high. In addition, his physique had been nourished by the Earth Spirit Liquid and was relatively strong.
However, in the aspect of bloodline, he was ordinary.
In fact, compared to those martial artists with bloodline power, he was a little ordinary.
However, overall, he passed the aptitude test.
