When the disciples saw Chen Wuyong, they were all stunned. Their eyes slowly widened until their eyeballs were about to fall out.
Because, the Chen Wuyong who was walking over step by step, had changed.
Although his clothes still looked plain, and even faded, but it was not as dirty and tattered as before. It was very clean. A blue and black robe was on his body, the edges of the robe were embroidered with the image of a river. The river rose from the edge, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.
Not only his clothes, even Chen Wuyong's appearance had changed. His hair was no longer messy like a bird's nest, but had become clean and tidy. Although his short hair was still loose, it did not feel messy at all. Instead, it had a domineering presence.
His long beard was gone, not even stubble was left. His face was clean, as if he had turned from a black man to a normal person. His skin was very white, without the slightest hint of wear and tear.
His face was full of sharp edges, giving off a resolute feeling. This was the first time the disciples here saw his facial features, and even felt that he was a little handsome.
Among the shocked disciples, only Lu An's brows gradually wrinkled, his eyes becoming dignified. Because he could see, every step Chen Wuyong took seemed to be filled with water vapor.
But, the snow did not melt, the air did not warm, and the surroundings did not change. But Lu An did not believe that his senses were wrong. There was only one explanation, and that was his state of mind.
Chen Wuyong had his own state of mind, and did not need the help of Heaven techniques, as if he was born with it.
Thud.
Chen Wuyong stood in front of the disciples, his eyes like an eagle sweeping across every disciple's face. Seeing the dazed expressions of the disciples, his brows furrowed.
"Today, is Jadewater Peak's end of year examination." Chen Wuyong opened his mouth, his voice was like a surging river, causing all the disciples to regain their senses. "I haven't been there for a long time, I'll go with you guys."
The disciples were all stunned when they heard this. Lu An, who was in the crowd, saw that a few of the senior brothers who had arrived early actually had tears in their eyes!
Although the others did not cry, they were still very emotional. Their fists were clenched tightly, and even their breathing became rough.
Lu An didn't know how bitter these people were.
Every year, they had to go to Blue Water Peak to participate in the end-of-year examination. Compared to the disciples from the other six peaks, they were like wild children without parents.
The elders of the other mountain peaks would bring their own disciples along and explain to their disciples during the battle. As for them, there was no one to bring them along and explain to them. Sometimes, if they wanted to learn more, they would purposely go to other people's places and listen to other elders' lectures. However, they would only receive disdain and disdain.
Every year during the examination, they would be like idiots. A group of disciples would huddle together and stare blankly at the battles. They would come and go by themselves.
They had had enough of mockery and disdain, so they didn't have any hope this year. Although their master was willing to teach them, they were even more afraid of making a request and making their master stop teaching. No one dared to look for their master. Therefore, when Chen Wuyong appeared, their eyes turned red.
Chen Wuyong saw all of this and sighed. Indeed, because of his personal matters, he had caused his disciples to suffer grievances for too long. This was his responsibility.
"Let's go." Chen Wuyong turned around and said, "To Blue Water Peak."
"Yes!" All the disciples shouted in unison and held their heads high.

Two hours later.
Morning, Blue Water Peak.
Blue Water Peak was one of the five peaks. Although it was the weakest, it still couldn't extinguish the passion in the hearts of all the disciples.
The disciples from the seven peaks arrived one after another. Many of them knew each other and couldn't help chatting since they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
Not only the disciples, but the elders were also the same. The seven elders arrived one after another. After meeting each other, they couldn't help but ask about each other's well-being and talk about the events of the past year.
As the time approached, the examination was about to begin. The test was very important. The most important purpose was to select the four most powerful people to represent Blue Water Peak in the year-end test of Mount Tianshan, which would be held a week later.
After all, the end-of-year examination represented the glory of Blue Water Peak. Although the five peaks were all part of Mount Tianshan, they couldn't avoid competing with each other.
Of course, no matter what, the final four people would be the disciples of Blue Water Peak. The disciples of the seven elders were all Level One Heavenly Masters and weren't qualified to enter. Therefore, the other purpose of the examination of Blue Water Peak was to select the talented disciples of the seven elders and focus on training them.
The disciples who were able to get a ranking would receive rich rewards. Weapons, elixirs, and Heavenly Techniques were all given out.
In the crowd, the six elders gathered together and chatted. One of them said with a smile, "Old Liu, your complexion looks very good!"
The one called Old Liu was Liu Panshan. He was 57 years old this year, but he looked like a man in his early forties. After all, as the Heavenly Master realm increased, so did the lifespan. Liu Panshan was in the prime of his life and looked very healthy.
"Not bad. I've made some progress in my cultivation recently!" Liu Panshan laughed and said, "And my disciples have been very easy this year. They haven't caused any trouble for me."
"Ai, compared to you, I'm really unlucky!" Another elder, Tong Shifang, sighed, shook his head and said, "My disciples are not at all worry-free. Just two months ago, a reckless brat went deep into the mountains to cultivate, and mistakenly entered the forbidden area, and was almost killed by a Rank Two Strange Beast. When he was rescued, he was already half dead. I personally treated him, but now he's still a cripple. "
"Yes, some brats don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. They think they're talented and are destined to become strong, but they die early." The other elders nodded and said.
"Have you heard about what happened to Chen Wuyong?" An elder named Mo Teng asked. "It happened a few days ago!"
"Ah! I heard that it was a new disciple who crippled Eldest Senior Brother! " Tong Shifang suddenly remembered and quickly said, "Some of my disciples went to watch the fight. They said it was very exciting!"
"En." Mo Teng also nodded and said seriously, "I asked the disciple who went to watch to describe it to me. Although I don't know if he exaggerated or not, to be able to defeat a senior disciple with just two level one Heaven Arts, he must be extremely talented!"
The others nodded in agreement. Only one person snorted and scoffed.
"It's just a rumor. How credible can it be?" Liu Panshan sneered and said, "Don't forget, that's Chen Wuyong's disciple. What kind of disciple can that person teach? Have you forgotten that in recent years, none of his disciples have been able to obtain a ranking? "
The other elders were stunned. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Indeed, the truth was that even Chen Wuyong's eldest disciple did not have much strength.
"Has Chen Wuyong's disciple arrived?" Tong Shifang turned his head and looked around. Now that all the disciples of the six of them had arrived, the time was near and the fight was about to begin.
"Not yet." Mo Teng looked around and shook his head, "But those disciples are pitiful. To follow such a master, their future is ruined."
"It's also because of that incident that year. Otherwise, Chen Wuyong would not have become like that." Tong Shifang shook his head and said, "Back then, Chen Wuyong could be said to be like the sun in the sky. Not to mention Blue Water Peak, even the entire Great Accomplishment Sky Mountain was very prestigious. Even the Sect Master had high hopes for him. What a pity … "
"Hmph! What's there to pity? "Liu Panshan snorted and said," Trash will always be trash. He will never amount to anything! A dignified Level 4 Heavenly Master was hurt to this extent by a woman. He deserves to be like this! "
The other five were stunned. They sighed and shook their heads, not saying a word. They all knew that Liu Panshan and Chen Wuyong had a grudge. Since Chen Wuyong would not be here, there was no need for them to offend Liu Panshan.
However, at this moment, a disciple suddenly shouted, "Look! They're here! "
The voice was very loud. The six elders were also stunned and turned their heads to look. However, when they saw the leader of the group, their bodies trembled together!
Liu Panshan's face immediately darkened. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. From the gaps of his teeth, he said, "Chen! Wu! Yong! "
