Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation As a large group of guests entered Tianwu Academy, news of an extraordinary young man riding on a Scarlet Cloud Jiao and barging into Tianwu Academy spread like wildfire.
The news of the young man named Gu Yu challenging the students of Tianwu Academy the next day also spread like wildfire.
"Bastard, that brat is too despicable. He actually dares to look down on our Tianwu Academy."
"Since he dares to challenge the students of our academy, he's clearly looking down on us. Get someone to teach that brat a lesson tomorrow."
"Teaching that brat a lesson is easier said than done. It's said that his mount is a Scarlet Cloud Jiao at the great circle of the Pulse Spirit Realm, a demonic beast on the Heaven Beast Ranking. Even if his mount were to make a move, it would be able to kill a bunch of experts on the Martial Ranking in an instant."
"Then get the top ten experts on the Martial Ranking to teach that arrogant brat a lesson!"
"That Gu Yu is only sixteen or seventeen years old. Putting aside the fact that he might not be able to win, even if he were to win, it would be equivalent to losing. If he were to lose, it would cause the reputation of our Tianwu Academy to plummet."
"But this time, there are quite a few talented new students in our academy."
"There are, but no matter how strong the new students are, their cultivation is still limited. I'm afraid that they won't be able to compete with that young man named Gu Yu."
"..."
Within Tianwu Academy, all of the students were discussing the challenge tomorrow. They wondered who would be able to contend against that young man named Gu Yu.
The name Du Shaofu that had been spreading like wildfire recently was finally suppressed by Gu Yu's name.
Dusk was approaching and the sun was setting in the west. Red clouds spread across the sky, covering half of the sky.
The canopy of the trees swayed and the mountain peaks stretched far and wide.
"Big Sister."
In a room in a courtyard on a mountain peak, a slightly plump young man and a short-braided young lady happily surrounded a lady dressed in orange.
The two of them were the first place of the freshmen assessment, Cheng Yan and the fourth place, Cheng Chao. They were the second princess and third prince of the Stone Dragon Empire respectively and had an illustrious status.
"Second Sister, Third Brother, how are you doing in Tianwu Academy?"
As the First Princess of the Stone Dragon Empire, as well as the elder sister of Cheng Yan and Cheng Chao, she was also a direct disciple of the Divine Light Court. She was famous in the surrounding empires.
Cheng Yan had a delicate and pretty face. She looked to be around sixteen to seventeen years old, and she bore some resemblance to the chubby young man. Under her long eyelashes, her large eyes sparkled like black gems. She looked at Cheng Sheng-nan and said, "Tianwu Academy has an extraordinary foundation, especially in the Tianwu Talisman realm. If you can comprehend it well, your achievements will be extraordinary."
"Of course. I noticed that Second Sister has improved a lot in such a short time," Cheng Sheng-nan said with a smile.
Hearing those words, Cheng Chao's face was filled with displeasure. He looked at Cheng Sheng-nan and said, "Big Sister, there's really nothing good about Tianwu Academy. I really don't know why Emperor Father wants me to come here. Why don't you go back and tell Emperor Father to let me join the Radiant Shrine? I also want to become a disciple of the Divine Light Court."
Cheng Sheng-nan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the chubby young man. His lips curled up as he said, "Third Brother, Emperor Father naturally has his reasons for sending you to Tianwu Academy. The Tianwu Talisman realm in Tianwu Academy is extraordinary and even the experts of the Divine Light Court have mentioned it many times. If you comprehend it well, you will achieve great things in the future."
"Tianwu Academy. I hate Tianwu Academy."
Cheng Chao's face was ashen. When he thought of the humiliation he suffered when he first arrived at Tianwu Academy, displeasure welled up in his heart. As the Third Prince of the empire and the future ruler of the Stone Dragon Empire, he didn't expect to be humiliated the moment he arrived at Tianwu Academy. He couldn't get over it.
Looking at Cheng Chao, Cheng Yan could only sigh inwardly. She then looked at Cheng Sheng-nan and asked, "Big Sister, I heard that a young man named Gu Yu from the Divine Light Court is going to challenge Tianwu Academy tomorrow. Is that true?"
Cheng Sheng-nan's eyes flickered and she smiled. She said to Cheng Yan, "There is indeed such a thing. Junior Brother Gu Yu possesses the Spiritual Pulse Physique and is extremely talented. At the age of seventeen, he has already reached the Great Circle of the Pulse Spirit Realm. In the entire Divine Light Court, there are less than three people with such talent. Therefore, he specially came to Tianwu Academy to spar with them."
"Spiritual Pulse Physique, Great Circle of the Pulse Spirit Realm at the age of seventeen."
Hearing this, Cheng Yan and Cheng Sheng-nan were dumbfounded. Gu Yu's talent was terrifying to the extreme. They felt that their talents weren't bad, but compared to Gu Yu, the difference was like the difference between heaven and earth.
"Second Sister, you are the champion of this year's freshmen assessment. However, if you wish to challenge Gu Yu tomorrow, you can forget about it. You are still unable to test him," Cheng Sheng-nan said.
Cheng Yan looked at Cheng Sheng-nan and her eyes flickered. She said, "Du Family's Du Chi and Du Yunxin are both here. Will the academy arrange for them to take action? I'm afraid that they won't be able to do anything to Gu Yu."
"Du Family..." Cheng Sheng-nan's eyes flickered and she said softly, "The people from the Du Household are also here. I believe that Tianwu Academy won't arrange for the Du Family to take action."
Dusk. Silver-gray dew enveloped the mountains.
"Greetings to Fourth Uncle."
In the courtyard, a young man and a young lady stood together and respectfully bowed to a burly man with distinct facial features.
The burly man looked at the young man and young lady with his deep eyes and a smile appeared on his face. "Du Chi, Yunxin, how are the two of you doing in Tianwu Academy?"
The young man was called Du Chi. Hearing this, a smile appeared on his handsome face. He stood there quietly, but his aura was noble and elegant. Coupled with his tall figure, it made him appear even more handsome. He said, "I have gained quite a lot. The Tianwu Academy's Tianwu Seal Realm is extraordinary."
"Then you must comprehend it well. There is no weakling in my Du Family."
The burly man smiled and looked at the young lady. He asked, "Yunxin, what about you?"
The young lady looked to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. Her name was Du Yunxin and she had a rosy face. Her eyes were watery and her voice was gentle as she replied, "Replying to Fourth Uncle, I have gained quite a lot as well."
"That's good. Your parents have instructed me to tell the two of you to cultivate well and reach the Meridian Spirit Realm as soon as possible," the burly man said.
"Yes."
The two of them nodded. After which, some ripples flashed across Du Chi's pair of clear eyes, which were so gentle that it seemed as if water was about to drip out of them. His fine long hair covered his smooth forehead and drooped down to his thick and long eyelashes. After seemingly pondering for a while, he opened his mouth and asked, "Fourth Uncle, Big Brother, Second Brother and the others, what level are they at now?"
"Their progress is extraordinary. If you want to catch up to your Big Brother and Second Brother, you will have to put in more effort."
The burly man smiled. Then, he looked at the two of them with his deep eyes and asked, "I heard that there is a Du Shaofu in Tianwu Academy. Have the two of you paid attention to him?"
Hearing this, Du Chi's clear eyes flickered and he replied, "I did pay attention to him. That brat isn't simple, but I can't determine anything for the time being."
Du Yunxin's brows slightly widened. She looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Fourth Uncle, is the clan investigating him as well?"
"There are some matters that the clan has to investigate," the burly man replied. ...
Night fell. The sky was shrouded in darkness. The distant mountains, the nearby trees, and the mountain range were all hazy.
In the courtyard and hall, bright pearls shone brightly.
At this moment, all the elders of Tianwu Academy were frowning. When they thought of the challenge from the Divine Light Court tomorrow, all of them felt dejected.
"It is said that Gu Yu has a Spiritual Pulse Physique and is terrifyingly talented. He is only seventeen years old, but he has already reached the Great Perfection of the Pulse Spirit Realm. Even in the entire Divine Light Court, there are no more than three people with such talent. He is already an invincible existence among those of the same age. None of the new students in the academy can match up to him," Elder He Hu said with a grave expression.
"A Spiritual Pulse Physique!"
Many of the elders were shocked when they heard this. That kind of talent only existed in legends and was one in a billion. It was a talent that surpassed ordinary Martial Pulse Physiques. Anyone with a Spiritual Pulse Physique was heaven-defying and ordinary people couldn't be compared to them.
"Gu Yu is too powerful, and the Divine Light Court is doing this intentionally. Putting aside whether the top ten on the Martial Ranking can win, even if they win, it will be an unfair victory. Even if they win against Gu Yu, they will lose the reputation of our Tianwu Academy. However, I'm afraid that none of the new students are qualified to fight, "Elder Shangguan said with a grave expression.
"Among the freshmen, even though Du Chi, Du Yunxin, Cheng Yan, and the others are talented, they are still far from being able to match up to Gu Yu. Furthermore, the Eight King Manors have come together this time around. If we were to allow them to make a move, it would make our Tianwu Academy look weak, and it would be inappropriate for us to do so," Elder Sun said.
"Then, who should we send for the challenge tomorrow? If our Tianwu Academy doesn't even have a single person, our reputation will suffer a huge blow if news of this were to spread," Elder Liao said.
"No matter who we send tomorrow, it will be difficult for Tianwu Academy to step down. The Divine Light Court has come prepared," Murong Xi said with a sigh.
In the hall, the elders fell silent and shook their heads inwardly.
Suddenly, Elder Shangguan looked at everyone and said, "Do you guys think that if Du Shaofu was here, he would be able to fight against Gu Yu?"
Swish swish …
When everyone heard this, their eyes flickered and they looked at each other with splendor in their eyes.
"You don't say. If that vicious and hateful brat was here, he might really be able to stop Gu Yu. It's said that that brat Du Shaofu did not suffer any losses in Li Yuxiao's hands." A blue clothed old elder in his sixties said.
"I feel that if Du Shaofu was here, he would be able to fight against Gu Yu," a yellow-clothed elder said. His eyes flickered with splendor and the aura that he had concealed revealed a powerful aura.
