The sun gradually rose, and rays of dazzling light shone on the Forbidden City. It was as if a dragon's aura was soaring and roaring, making it look noble and majestic.
A youth riding a spirit turtle slowly came over. He was wearing a navy blue robe, and his hair was combed clean and smooth. His face was brimming with a brilliant smile, and his amber-like eyes were very charming. No matter which girl saw him, they would be deeply attracted to him.
He definitely didn't look like a perfect man, but his temperament was like that of a banished immortal, ethereal and moving.
Many youths present rushed through the Forbidden City's door on different spirit demons, but this youth was the most outstanding. The spirit demons of the other youths didn't dare to approach the turtle demon. They all opened up a path for the turtle demon, allowing it to slowly pass through first.
Many young men and women looked at the young man who was riding the turtle demon with astonishment.
They were all wondering where this youth came from. He was so domineering that everyone was opening a path for him.
A girl in the crowd exclaimed, "He's the Eldest Senior Brother of the Alchemy Department, Yang Wu."
Yang Wu had defeated Cheng Xinran, Yao Yikai, and Ni Zi with alchemy in the Alchemy Department, becoming the Eldest Senior Brother of the Alchemy Department in one fell swoop. This was acknowledged by Deputy Dean Chen Zhao. Even if he didn't leave any other achievements in the Alchemy Department, it didn't stop others from remembering him deeply.
"He's that Yang Wu. It's said that he's the youngest Heavenly Alchemist in Great Xia. I wonder if it's true."
"Deputy Dean said it himself. It shouldn't be fake. Look at his demeanor. He's so handsome."
"I think he must be bragging. I don't believe he's a real Heavenly Alchemist. It's already very heaven-defying to be a Medicine King."
"If he's an alchemist, is he here to observe the ceremony or participate in the Hall Martial Competition?"
…
Yang Wu's hearing was very sharp. He heard the conversation between these youths. He wanted to say loudly, "I'm here to compete for the position of Martial Scholar."
If he hadn't experienced the mountain prison and the army, he might have really said it. Now that he was much more mature, he naturally wouldn't be so childish.
Just as Yang Wu was about to pass through the forbidden gate, someone called out to him, "Yang Wu."
Yang Wu turned around and saw three young girls riding spirit demons towards him. The girl on the right was dressed in green. Her face was pretty, and her breasts were voluptuous. It felt like her clothes were about to burst out. She was riding a green horse. In the middle was a girl dressed in purple. A ball of faint purple flames floated around her body. She was riding a Fire Cloud Tiger. The girl on the left was dressed in blue. She carried a longsword embedded with a sapphire on her back. She was riding a mighty blue lion. It was she who had greeted Yang Wu.
Lin Qiqi, Ni Zi and Cao Fanni were three of the top ten beauties in the Royal School. Their arrival together added a beautiful scene to the scene.
Before they could even get close to Yang Wu's mount, they revealed looks of fear and did not dare to move forward.
The Silver Patterned Tortoise's demonic aura was too thick. How would low level spirit demons dare to get close to it?
Yang Wu turned around and looked at them. He nodded and smiled, "Hello."
He knew these three girls, but they weren't close. After greeting them, he continued forward.
Cao Fanni was rather bold. She jumped down from her blue lion and walked towards Yang Wu, saying, "Yang Wu, can I ride in with you?"
The once arrogant her lowered herself to get close to Yang Wu. It could be seen that Yang Wu was now very popular.
Lin Qiqi and Ni Zi didn't expect Cao Fanni, who had always had high standards, to do this. They were both stunned.
Yang Wu smiled, "I'm sorry, we're not that close."
After saying that, he urged the Silver Patterned Tortoise to speed up and rush through the forbidden gate.
Cao Fanni watched as Yang Wu disappeared into the distance. She stomped her feet and said angrily, "Who cares."
"Is the girl in love?" Lin Qiqi rode over on her blue horse and asked.
"Nonsense, I'm not interested in him." Cao Fanni said against her will.
Ni Zi caught up from behind and said, "If it wasn't for the huge gap between us, I would also want to try to become his Dao companion."
Her voice wasn't soft. The youths in the surroundings all heard her. They all had pained expressions. They really hoped that Ni Zi's words were directed at them. The gap between them wasn't that big.
"That's right. The first time I saw him, he wasn't this powerful. In just half a year, he has grown to this level. He's a completely different kind of person." Lin Qiqi revealed a trace of defeat.
She remembered that she was saved by Yang Wu in the swamp. At that time, Yang Wu had already displayed extraordinary strength, but it was far from being as unreachable as it was now.
The hearts of the three young girls who yearned for love shrank back because of the great distance between them and Chu Li.
They all knew that Yang Wu was not someone they could catch.
When Yang Wu entered the venue of the Martial Arts Assembly, many civil and military officials' eyes fell on him.
As the youngest Heavenly Pharmacist in history, he had a halo around him. Everyone knew about him. Recently, because of the appearance of the people from Mount Emei, they went to the Yang Clan and caused a ruckus, pushing the Yang Clan to the heart of the storm. Everyone was paying attention to what kind of response this Marquis Shaowu would have.
As a result, this Marquis Shaowu holed up at home, which disappointed them. At the same time, they felt that it was reasonable. Mount Emei was a daunting mountain. Who could provoke it?
"The one riding the tortoise is Yang Wu." Prince Fu An said softly after seeing Yang Wu from afar.
He didn't face anyone, but it was obvious that he was telling Ji Lanyu, Song Jing, Huan Junbo, and Yao Yanhai that only the four of them had not seen Yang Wu.
Ji Lanyu, Song Jing, Huan Junbo, and Yao Yanhai's eyes all locked on Yang Wu at the same time.
Yang Wu felt strange, so he looked towards the highest viewing platform. When he met those eyes, there was an invisible splash of light.
"Da Xia Emperor, is he really a Heavenly Alchemist?" Ji Lanyu asked the emperor.
The emperor nodded his head and said: "Yes, he refined a furnace of Heavenly Dan in front of us all and attracted a tribulation of Heavenly Thunder. There is no mistake about it."
"Very good, our Mount Emei has specially recruited him." Ji Lanyu said.
"Ji Daren is wise." The emperor said with a faint smile on his face.
Yao Yanhai faintly said: "This old man has been practicing alchemy for hundreds of years and was lucky enough to become a Heavenly Alchemist. How can he become a Heavenly Alchemist at such a young age? It's best to let this old man verify it before making a conclusion."
"Yes, our Mount Emei's alchemy brothers and sisters are all talented, but no one can become a Heavenly Alchemist at such a young age. I think this must be verified." Huan Junbo echoed.
Luo Gongming said from the side: "We witnessed it with our own eyes, how can it be false?"
Song Jing said: "True gold is not afraid of fire."
"Yes, we all believe that Yang Wu is a Heavenly Alchemist, but Mount Emei wants to recruit him. Let him show his strength." Prince Fu An said again.
Who doesn't know that Prince Fu An and Yang Wu have a grudge. He certainly doesn't want Yang Wu to join Mount Emei.
Now, Prince Fu An is undoubtedly stirring up trouble.
"True gold is not afraid of fire. But this time, Yang Wu also came to participate in the Palace Martial Arts Competition. Let's wait until the competition is over." The emperor said with a smile.
He was very clear about Yang Wu's strength, so why would he be afraid of these people playing tricks?
"Emperor, this is against the rules. He is a king of the Earth Sea Realm. It's not fair for him to participate in these children's competition." Song Lirui said.
"Who said it's against the rules? He is an official disciple of our Imperial College." Chen Zhao, who has been silent for a long time, said. He represented the Imperial College to watch the competition. In addition to him, there were also some elders present, but they were not qualified to stand on the highest platform.
"That's also against the rules. This is unfair for the Palace Martial Arts Competition. Emperor, please investigate." Song Lirui said again.
"Prime Minister Song, you are too serious. Yang Wu is not yet 18 years old. If he joins our Imperial College, he is fully qualified to participate in the Palace Martial Arts Competition." Chen Zhao said with a smile while stroking his beard. After a pause, he added: "A king under 18 years old, I believe Deacon Ji will take a fancy to him."
Ji Lanyu smiled with satisfaction and said, "Very good. Your Xia Kingdom has finally produced an amazing genius who can be compared with other top-notch Emperors. No wonder you are confident that you can reach the upper middle level.
Ji Lanyu is quite a fair person. She will not give up the opportunity to recruit talents because of personal grievances.
This time, the faces of the people next to her were not good.
Could it be that Yang Wu joining Mount Emei was already a done deal?
The next moment, Yang Wu did something that they did not expect. He made a disrespectful gesture of slitting his throat in the direction of the highest viewing platform.
"Presumptuous, you are going against the heavens!" Prince Fu An screamed when he saw this action.
"Emperor, this child cannot be left alive." Song Lirui hurriedly said.
The Emperor wiped his cold sweat and said: "Don't be agitated, this may just be a misunderstanding. He should be wiping his neck."
Previously, he had told Yang Wu not to be righteous. Yang Wu actually did not listen, which made him feel embarrassed.
"Da Xia Emperor, why are you protecting him? Just because he is a heavenly alchemist, you can be disrespectful? " Huan Junbo narrowed his eyes and said faintly. He could feel that Yang Wu's action was directed at them.
"He must be killed!" Song Jing had been staring at Yang Wu. Her eyes were shining with a strange light.
If she remembered correctly, she had seen Yang Wu half a year ago. She also saw the silver patterned turtle. She did not expect them to be in the same group. It was really a small world.
At this time, Yang Wu touched his neck and said to himself: "I am just scratching an itch. Why are you so nervous?"
Yang Wu's hearing was extraordinary. He could hear every word that was said on the highest platform. He deliberately said this to explain.
"Young Master, there is a woman up there who looks familiar." The silver patterned turtle said to Yang Wu.
"Of course, she looks familiar. Didn't you fight with her? I didn't expect her to be from Mount Emei. It seems you don't expect to join Mount Emei. "Yang Wu sighed.
At this time, a military official loudly announced: "Everyone, the Palace Martial Arts Competition is about to begin."
