"What letter of challenge?"
Gu Xin asked in a hurry.
"I don't know much about it either."
The disciple explained, "Rumor has it that Huang Cheng Academy sent us a letter of challenge. They want to gamble in the Tianqi Selection. If we lose, the Tianqi Academy will be closed!"
"Damn it."
Gu Xin couldn't help but curse, "Our Tianqi Academy's results in the Tianqi Selection have always been worse than Huang Cheng Academy. We will definitely lose!"
"So."
Another disciple said, "The dean wants to recruit a group of students and close the academy for a thousand years!"
"That's tough."
Gu Xin still shook her head, unspeakable pessimism surged in her heart.
"Sigh."
The other two disciples sighed as well. Apparently, they felt the same as Gu Xin.
Not only the three disciples sighed, almost all the disciples in the Tianqi Academy who knew about this were sighing. A pessimistic mood quietly spread in the Tianqi Academy.
In a hall in the center of the academy. "Sigh." Dean Gu Li sighed too. He said to a second-rank Taiqing Heaven Immortal, "Granduncle Chi, this is what happened. That day, I was with the dean of Huang Cheng Academy, Jiang Yuanming, to pick up Xiao Wenheng at Xuhuang City. Xiao Wenheng was kidnapped. They thought it was our Tianqi Academy's doing and have been resentful. That's why they sent this letter of challenge!"
The Granduncle Chi that Gu Li mentioned was naturally Gu Chi. He sneered and said, "If Jiang Yuanming wanted to deal with our Tianqi Academy, why would he wait until today, twenty thousand years later? There must be someone behind this! "
"Who?"
Gu Li was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Our Tianqi Academy is also an academy. Our name is on the register of the Wenqu Saint Palace. Who would want to deal with us?"
"Hehe."
Gu Chi smiled and said, "Of course, it's someone that even the Wenqu Saint Palace has to be wary of!"
"The twelfth floor?"
Gu Li frowned and probed, "Xuhuang Tower? Qiyun Tower? "
"No!"
Gu Chi shook his head without hesitation.
"Seems like Granduncle Chi knows the inside story!"
Gu Li immediately understood and said hurriedly, "I was right to invite you here. Can you tell me?"
"No."
Gu Chi immediately shook his head and said, "I can't say this!"
"Why?"
Gu Li said anxiously, "The Academy is in danger. What else can't you say?"
"Gu Li ~"
Gu Chi smiled bitterly, "If I don't say anything, the Heavenly Book Academy will only be shut down because of their anger. Who knows, there might be a chance for it to reopen in the future. If I say anything, I might offend them and our Gu family will be exterminated!"
"Ah?"
Gu Li exclaimed, "Is … is it that serious?"
"Was Ming Shizu's lesson … not enough?"
Gu Li's eyes immediately went wide, and he cried out in surprise, "Mo … Could it be four …"
"Shh ~"
Gu Chi stopped Gu Li and shook his head, "It's enough for you and me to know about this, don't talk about it!"
"The problem is …"
Gu Li gritted his teeth and said, "Are you trying to kill us all? My Heavenly Book Academy has always kept a low profile and did not stir up trouble. Isn't it just to express the attitude of my Gu Clan? "
"I already told you ~"
Gu Chi said again, "He's just venting his anger. Maybe things will change after some time!"
"There's a change?"
Gu Li was the first to lose confidence. He said in a low voice, "How could there possibly be any changes? Only the five Celestial Emperors can make them change their minds, but would the five Celestial Emperors care about the life and death of our Heavenly Book Academy?"
"No, no ~"
Gu Chi waved his hand and said, "It's not the five Celestial Emperors, it's one person …"
As he said that, a disciple's voice came from outside the hall, "Reporting to the headmaster, the registration for the disciple selection has ended, a total of three thousand one hundred and forty …"
"Alright ~"
Gu Li interrupted the report and said, "Just hand over the name list, you can start the selection!"
Then, a disciple presented the Red Cloud Festival.
Gu Li didn't look at the Red Cloud Festival. He threw it on the jade table and said resentfully, "They're all leftovers from the Huang City Academy. How can a group of small fries compare to those geniuses from Huang City?"
After Gu Li finished, he continued to ask, "Granduncle Chi, who is this person you're talking about?"
"This person is naturally …"
Gu Chi was about to say the name, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them and said, "Whether this person is taboo or not, I'm not sure myself. Before he appears, it's better not to say it!"
As he said that, Gu Chi picked up the Red Cloud Festival and said, "It's useless to talk about this. The plan now is to think about how to win against the Huang City Academy!"
"It's impossible to win!"
Gu Li shook his head without thinking, "The results of the Huang City Academy in the previous Tianqi selection have always been much better than the Heavenly Book Academy. Granduncle Chi? You … "
As Gu Li said that, he saw that Gu Chi's hand holding the Red Cloud Festival was trembling slightly. He hurriedly shouted, "Granduncle Chi, Granduncle Chi!"
"Haha, haha ~"
Gu Chi looked up to the sky and laughed, "Gu Li, the heavens have not forsaken the Heavenly Book Academy. He … he's here!"
"Who?"
"Who is he?"
Gu Li was puzzled. He looked at the Red Cloud Festival in Gu Chi's hand and said, "This name list is the name list of the students who want to study in the Heavenly Book Academy. What's the use of them?"
"See for yourself!!"
Gu Chi threw the Red Cloud Festival to Gu Li and shouted.
Then, Gu Chi was about to use the Clear Eyes Technique to investigate.
But just as his eyes lit up, he hurriedly patted his forehead and scolded softly, "How can I investigate like this? Isn't this finding trouble for myself!! "
"Ah??"
At the same time, Gu Li lost his voice and shouted, "Xiao … Xiao Wenheng??? How is this possible?? "
"Haha ~"
Gu Chi finally couldn't hold it in and laughed, "Why is it not possible?"
"It's written on here ~"
Gu Li shouted, "Xiao Hua is a Jade Clear Stage Three Human Immortal. Xiao Wenheng hasn't reached Song Immortal for twenty thousand years. How can he cultivate to Jade Clear Stage Three Human Immortal??"
"It's absolutely impossible for others ~"
Gu Chi squinted his eyes and said, "But for Xiao Xian, it's a piece of cake!"
"Since when did Xiao Wenheng have a courtesy name?"
Gu Li still couldn't believe it and asked, "Why haven't I heard of this idler before?"
"You haven't heard of him before!"
Gu Chi sneered, "Because no one dares to mention that matter, for fear of getting into trouble! However, since Xiao Xian has appeared, even if you don't know about it, he will think that you know about it. So he's not afraid to tell you! "
When Gu Chi told him about how Xiao Hua killed Nangong Shiru and took Ying Huo away, Gu Li was immediately dumbfounded. He didn't speak for a long time, and finally stuttered, "No … no wonder there's no news about Xiao Wenheng. He was … he was suppressed in the Red Cliff Heavenly Realm by 81 Longjing …"
"Then he's out now …"
Gu Li was puzzled, "Why did he come to my Heavenly Book Academy again??"
"Why did he come, I don't know ~"
Gu Chi said excitedly, "What I know is, you have to ask Xiao Wenheng himself!!"
"Quick ~"
Gu Li also came to his senses and shouted, "Beat the drum, ring the bell, open the door …"
