"That's right."
Gu Wei nodded. "Let me make a bold guess. Xiao Wenheng might be teaching the students who are taking part in the long examination!"
"Impossible, impossible ~ ~ ~"
Kong Xu waved his hand without hesitation, "Let's not talk about whether Xiao Wenheng has such a high level pill refining technique in the Heavenly Court. Let's talk about the millions of Jade Clear Human Immortals we're talking about, would they listen to Xiao Wenheng …"
Before Kong Xu could finish, an immortal official rushed into the hall in a panic and shouted, "My lord, my lord, this is bad, this is bad..."
"How dare you!"
Kong Xu was furious and scolded, "How can you be so rash in the Literature Song Sacred Palace? Is this a breach of etiquette?"
"Lord!"
That immortal official said anxiously, "It's not that I'm being rash. It's … it's that outside the Literature Song Sacred Palace, there are thousands of academy heads surrounding the palace, demanding to rectify the corruption in the Elite Selection and return the innocence of the millions of students in Yellow City!"
"What?"
Kong Xu could not remain calm. He exclaimed, "How could such a shocking change happen?"
"Lord!"
A strange expression appeared on the immortal official's face as he said, "Just a few moments ago, there was a change in the rankings of the Five Phoenix Pavilion's Elite Selection Chart. Xiao … Xiao Wenheng once again obtained the 361st supra-perfection rank …"
"My … my heavens!"
Kong Xu cried out. "What kind of immortal pill did Xiao Wenheng refine?? He actually got the favor of the Heavenly Revelation Record? "
"That's right!"
The immortal official said anxiously, "These thousands of College Chancellors were watching the rankings of the Hundred Heroes in the Five Phoenix Pavilion. When they saw Xiao Wenheng's situation, and how even Qing Xue from the White City Academy, who had refined the Heavenly Hong Fan Silk, only got 320 credits, they lost control of their emotions and rushed over."
"Lord!"
Before this immortal official finished speaking, another immortal official rushed over on a cloud and shouted, "His Majesty has decreed for lord to meet him immediately."
"I …"
Kong Xu was so anxious that sweat appeared on his forehead. He was also blind. How could he dare to meet Heavenly Emperor Tian Huang?
"Lord Zhao!"
Gu Wei, on the other hand, had the demeanor of a general who was not afraid in the face of danger. He hurriedly asked the first immortal official, "Did the results of the Ochre Spirit Palace's alchemy students come out after Xiao Wenheng's results?"
"Yes, yes ~"
That Immortal Official Zhao nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice. "That's right. It's very strange. The immortal pills of more than a million students appeared at almost the same time. Moreover, the results were generally much better than the results of the previous competition. They instantly broke through the rankings!"
"Milord ~"
Gu Wei immediately laughed, "Don't tell me you still don't understand? The 'one' outside of the Great Heavenly Cycle? "
"What a Gu Wei!!"
Ecstasy appeared on Kong Xu's face. He pointed at Gu Wei and said, "If your guess is correct, I will reward you handsomely after the Elite Selection!"
Immortal Official Zhao and the other immortal official looked at each other as they watched Kong Xu fly away with joy on his face. His expression was completely different from his earlier panic. They had been by Kong Xu's side for a long time and knew that an important official like Kong Xu would not easily make promises under normal circumstances. However, as long as he made a promise, then … he would definitely fulfill it. It seemed that Gu Wei would soon have a meteoric rise after the Elite Selection.
Gu Wei casually nodded his head at the two immortal officials and carefully waited in the hall in case Emperor Tian Huang suddenly summoned him.
Facing the majestic Dazzling Soul Treasure Hall, Kong Xu also sighed with emotion. The Literature Melody Sacred Palace wasn't an important organization under Heavenly Emperor Tian Huang. Kong Xu hadn't been able to kowtow to Heavenly Emperor Tian Huang several times in the past ten million years. However, during the Elite Selection, a single Xiao Hua had actually caused him to have an audience with Heavenly Emperor Tian Huang twice in two hundred years.
Although it was a reprimand, he had responded perfectly. Wasn't this an opportunity for him to advance?
"Your subject Kong Xu greets Your Majesty ~"
Kong Xu had just bowed outside the hall when an urgent voice came from inside. Moreover, it did not belong to Emperor Tian Huang. "Quick, come in quickly!"
Kong Xu was shocked, and he quickly flew into the Dazzling Soul Treasured Hall. When he saw the scene inside the hall, Kong Xu was stunned.
On top of the hall, there was a four-petaled Flower of Resurrection swaying in the wind. From afar, the four petals looked like a book that had been opened. Clouds of different colors surged within the petals, and within the clouds, there were countless carvings. These carvings seemed to contain boundless worldly affairs. It was the phrase "one flower, one world, one leaf, one bodhi". However, when Kong Xu focused his gaze, the countless carvings condensed into the Green Jade Tablet, Red Jade Tablet, White Jade Tablet, and Black Jade Tablet.
At this moment, there were four immortal officials standing respectfully on top of the four jade tablets. Kong Xu didn't need to take a closer look to know that these four immortal officials were Wang Zegang, Zhu Yongting, Meng Tianyi, and Dong Xiao of the Literature Song Sacred Palace. The four-petaled Flower of Resurrection beneath their feet was the five forbidden grounds of the Heavenly Court. If he wanted to report to the other four emperors, he would have to activate the forbidden grounds' formation artifact in the Literature Song Sacred Palace and stand on the invisible petal at the center.
"Damn it!"
Kong Xu didn't expect the four immortal officials of the Literature Song Sacred Palace to come together. He cursed in his heart and quickly flew to the side of the Resurrection Flower. He bowed and said, "Your subject Kong Xu greets Your Majesty!"
"Beloved Minister Kong ~"
Emperor Tian Huang glanced at Kong Xu and said calmly, "Why don't you greet Beloved Minister Meng and the others? We didn't expect that a small Elite Selection would turn into such a big joke! "
"Your subject is guilty ~"
Kong Xu panicked and quickly said respectfully.
"Hmph ~"
Emperor Tian Huang snorted coldly and didn't say anything.
However, Kong Xu could tell that Emperor Tian Huang's attitude was for the sake of the four immortal officials of the Literature Song Sacred Palace. Thus, he put on a fake smile and cupped his hands towards the four of them. "Your subject greets my friends. I was just about to send a message to you, but I didn't expect you to be even more anxious than me. You actually sent a message to Your Majesty."
"Kong Xu ~"
Meng Tian Yi was the first to make things difficult as he said coldly, "Before you came, we already told you the ins and outs of the matter. We understand that your Huang City's Literature Tune Sacred Palace wants to support Xiao Hua, but the problem is, can you not be so obvious? This Meng doesn't know how many College Principals and Scholars have besieged your Literature Sage Palace, but my White City Sage Palace has already been surrounded by Scholars. They want us to give them an explanation, or else they will have to see His Majesty! "
"That's right ~"
Dong Xiao and the others looked at each other. They weren't as agitated as Meng Tianyi, but they also said, "Kong Wenyou, this is too unsightly. Although we want to hide it … it's impossible!"
"Nonsense ~"
Kong Xu sneered. He felt that there was no need for him to be too gentle. After all, the four of them had already reported it to Emperor Tian Huang. Thus, he said, "If you had good intentions, you would have already sent a message to me. Since you didn't even inform me and directly reported it to His Majesty, are you still trying to hide it for me?"
