In the darkness of the night, Du Shaofu's figure darted through the forest like a phantom. The faint aura of the Golden Winged Roc emanated from his body, causing the beasts in the depths of the forest to cower in fear.
After exiting the cave, Du Shaofu had been hiding all along. Fearing that the Black Fiend Sect and the other powers would be searching for him, as well as the Medicine King and other unknown dangers, he had no choice but to tread carefully.
Even though his injuries had yet to fully recover, Du Shaofu didn't dare to waste any time. His target was Tianwu Academy. At the very least, he would be safe for the time being once he reached Tianwu Academy.
He didn't expect that he would be able to reach Tianwu Academy while being pursued all the way.
Upon receiving news of the freshmen examination, Du Shaofu knew that Tianwu Academy only recruited new students once every three years, he had no choice but to hurry over. In any case, he was going to Tianwu Academy to look for Dai Xingyu and Ouyang Shuang. Furthermore, he had to join Tianwu Academy as well.
As for the freshmen examination, Du Shaofu had yet to register for it. Thus, he could only think of a solution when he reached Tianwu Academy.
Early in the morning, not a sound could be heard. The sky was just beginning to brighten and the night was about to fade away. Under the light of dawn, the air was cool and a soft mist rose from the mountain range. The mountain range was covered in a layer of milky white, making it look hazy and illusory.
In the dense forest, seven figures were walking slowly.
The seven of them were in their twenties, and there were six males and one female. The males had an extraordinary disposition and a spirited gaze.
The female had an elegant face and was dressed in a tight-fitting dress. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail, giving her a youthful aura.
"The freshmen examination should be ending soon, right? Can we return today?"
Among the seven of them, a plump young man walked at the very back. He took two steps forward and shouted, "Slow down, wait for me."
"Fat Eagle, you haven't earned enough points this month. Why are you in such a hurry to return? If you can meet a few more fellows who are stealing spirit herbs and magnetite, you should be able to earn enough points."
In front of the fat young man, a young man in blue smiled and said. He held a weapon that looked like a saber and a sword. His long robe fluttered slightly, and he looked very elegant.
"I'm so tired these past few days. I'll think of a way to get the points. If it really doesn't work … Hehe, aren't the freshmen here? I'll just have to find a few freshmen to rob," Fatty chuckled as if he already had this plan in mind.
"Damn fatty, don't you feel embarrassed to snatch the points of a new student?" The elegant lady turned her head and glanced at the fat young man. There seemed to be some disdain in her eyes.
The fat youth didn't look embarrassed at all. He smiled at the elegant girl and said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? Aren't the freshmen's points used to honor us seniors? Have you forgotten that three years ago, our points were also robbed by those guys who came to the academy a few years earlier than us? I was beaten black and blue. Now that I have a chance to take revenge, I don't want to miss it."
"Fatty Ying is right. If there's a chance, we should find a few freshmen to guide us. After all, we're seniors as well, and it's a tradition of Tianwu Academy to honor our seniors with points," a young man in yellow clothes said with a smile.
When the gray-robed young man at the front heard the discussion behind him, he couldn't help but turn around and join in the discussion. "Don't forget that there are many people who are eyeing the freshmen's points. I'm afraid that we won't even have a chance to get them. Who would let go of such a cheap opportunity to obtain points? I heard that some of the fellows on the 'Martial Ranking' want to make a move as well."
"Those fellows on the Martial Ranking are too much. Why are they fighting with us? They are all filthy rich." Hearing the words' Martial Ranking ', reverence immediately surged in the eyes of the fat young man.
Chi chi!
Right at this moment, a slight disturbance came from the forest ahead.
"Be careful."
The seven of them immediately noticed the abnormality in front of them and went on their guard almost simultaneously. The seven of them immediately formed a defensive circle and released their profound qi. They gripped their weapons tightly and were ready to strike at any moment. At the same time, they also scanned their surroundings.
"Everyone, don't be nervous. May I know if you guys are from Tianwu Academy?"
A faint voice sounded and a purple-robed young man appeared in front of them. He looked to be around sixteen to seventeen years old and his face was slightly pale. He seemed to be injured.
"Phew …"
Seeing that it was a purple-robed young man, the seven of them immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they glanced at one another and realized that it was just a false alarm.
The gray-robed young man in the lead raised his eyebrows and asked the purple-robed young man, "We are indeed students from Tianwu Academy. Who are you?"
"We're finally here."
Hearing those words, the purple-robed young man took in a deep breath. They rushed through the night and didn't dare to use the Peng Descends to the Nine Heavens in case they were discovered in midair. However, they were finally within the vicinity of Tianwu Academy, so they should be safe.
The purple-robed young man was naturally Du Shaofu. When he saw the six men and one woman in front of him, he was surprised to see that all seven of them had reached the Pulsation Realm.
Judging from the aura that the seven of them released when they were on guard, the lowest cultivation base was at the Pulsation Realm Mystery Level. The leader, the gray-clothed young man, and the beautiful woman were both at the Pulsation Realm Nirvana Level.
"Tianwu Academy is indeed different."
Du Shaofu looked at the center and sighed inwardly. Based on the age of these young men and women, their cultivation was already not bad. Within the stone city, Big Uncle and City Lord Ye Baolin were only at the consummate level of the Pulsating Realm.
At this moment, the seven of them were also sizing up Du Shaofu. However, other than seeing that the purple-robed young man was injured, they didn't notice anything else.
"Seniors, it's great to see all of you."
Du Shaofu stepped forward and smiled at the seven of them. When he thought about how he would be spending some time in Tianwu Academy, he couldn't help but feel a little closer to the seven of them.
Hearing Du Shaofu's words, the seven of them had a slight change in expression. The beautiful woman looked at Du Shaofu and asked, "Are you a student of Tianwu Academy?"
"Not yet, but it shouldn't take long." Du Shaofu smiled. When he saw the seven of them, he felt that he was safe.
Of course, Du Shaofu didn't think that the seven of them would be able to protect him. It was just that he felt a little safer in the territory of Tianwu Academy.
"What do you mean?"
Hearing Du Shaofu's words, the seven of them were puzzled. Then, the plump young man's gaze changed as he looked at Du Shaofu with a puzzled expression. He asked, "You aren't one of the new students who participated in the test earlier, right? Why did you come out? There's a Talisman Dimension inside and you shouldn't be able to come out."
"That's not it." Du Shaofu explained, "I haven't taken the test yet. Initially, I came to Tianwu Academy to register, but I was hunted down by someone. That's why I was delayed. Is it too late for me to register now?"
"You came to Tianwu Academy to register but were hunted down by someone. Since you haven't registered yet, you want to register for the test and become a disciple of Tianwu Academy?" The plump young man looked at Du Shaofu with a spirited gaze.
"That's right, that's the case."
Du Shaofu replied happily. It seemed that not only were the disciples of Tianwu Academy talented, their comprehension ability was also outstanding.
"Are you kidding me?"
Just as Du Shaofu spoke, the plump young man rolled his eyes at Du Shaofu and said, "Lad, the Dark Forest is ahead. Since you came from the front, you must have passed through the Dark Forest, right? How did you manage to arrive here safely?"
"It's not that I'm safe, it's a narrow escape. However, I'm finally here." Du Shaofu nodded his head.
"You passed through the Dark Forest alone?" The plump young man asked Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu nodded his head and replied, "You can say so."
Shua shua …
Upon hearing Du Shaofu's words, the gazes of the seven students landed on Du Shaofu in unison. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Peng peng peng!
Suddenly, in the sky in front of them, there were three thunderous booms. Then, high up in the sky, three dazzling rays of light bloomed in the sky. Through the layers of dense forest and the cover of the canopy, one could see the dazzling rays of light.
"It's over."
The seven students of Tianwu Academy raised their heads and looked at the dazzling rays of light in the sky. Their gazes flickered.
The leader of the group, the grey-robed young man, looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Lad, regardless of who you are and whether you are here to register for Tianwu Academy, I have to tell you that the freshmen assessment has stopped. If you want to join Tianwu Academy, you have to come back three years later. Of course, you have to be below eighteen by then."
"It's already over?"
Hearing those words, Du Shaofu's expression darkened. He didn't expect that he would be late for the registration.
"Lad, hurry up and return. There should be someone accompanying you. The Dark Forest is extremely dangerous and it's not a place for you to play." The elegant lady said to Du Shaofu with a hint of goodwill.
"It seems like I have to think of another way."
Du Shaofu muttered. After regaining his senses, he looked at the seven of them and asked, "Everyone, may I know if you can bring me to Tianwu Academy?"
"You aren't a disciple of Tianwu Academy and the registration has already passed. We can't bring you to Tianwu Academy." The elegant lady replied.
