Mu Qiqi continued to explain, “Ever since your triumphant debate at Qingyun Pavilion, where you defeated Shen Yunrui, and your victory in the alchemy competition against the Saint Shaoqing of the Shengdan Sect, your name has spread far and wide.”
“In these past seven days, the first-grade spiritual elixirs sold by our Qingyun Pavilion all had elixir patterns, and everyone immediately thought they were crafted by you.”
“As far as I know, Chu Yuntian, people from the Qin clan, and those from the Shengdan Pavilion have all sent people to secretly gather information about you at Qingyun Pavilion.”
Then, Mu Qiqi looked at Ye Wushuang with a worried expression and said, “When Qingyun Academy students pass the assessment and report to the academy, they all have to go through a freshman assessment.”
“Initially, they are ranked according to their performance in the assessment, and then they enter Lingyun Mountain for another entrance assessment to determine the top hundred rankings among the freshmen. There are generous rewards for the top ten.”
“And every time there is a freshman assessment, people die…”
“This time, the Qin clan and Chu clan will definitely target you.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s eyes brightened.
Mu Qiqi was stunned.
She couldn’t help but feel that Ye Wushuang’s expression and the gleam in his eyes did not show worry, but rather… excitement!
It seemed as if he was **eagerly looking forward to a fight**!
“I understand,” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Go get the spirit stones and bring them to me.”
“I didn’t say I would heal your father for free. I’ll still take the spirit stones. As for the guards you’ve stationed around my mansion these past few days, I didn’t ask for them, so I won’t pay for their protection.”
Mu Qiqi looked at Ye Wushuang, her face full of astonishment.
Had he suddenly become so shameless?
During the time she had known Ye Wushuang, he had never been a greedy person!
“I’ll go right now!” Mu Qiqi huffed and left immediately.
Ye Wushuang paid no attention and slowly got up, making his way to the training ground. He took a deep breath.
The Qin clan!
The Chu clan!
He had thought that entering Qingyun Academy would be rather boring, but now it seemed… it would be quite exciting.
The next day, early in the morning, after having breakfast, Ye Wushuang and Xiao Yuan set off together.
Today was the day to report to Qingyun Academy.
The Ye Mansion was not far from Qingyun Academy. The two walked together, and it took them only the time of a cup of tea to reach the academy.
The vast Qingyun Academy was located in the eastern district of the capital city. Its grand and imposing gates numbered nine in total, with the central one tightly closed and the other eight wide open.
On the central sandalwood gate, four large characters were inscribed:
Qingyun Academy!
Within the territory of the Qingyun Empire, there were numerous academies and schools in various prefectures and the capital itself. However, when it came to the best, Qingyun Academy was undoubtedly the top choice.
For thousands of years, Qingyun Academy had cultivated generation after generation of warriors. It could be said that many warriors from prominent families and sects within the capital, from the Meridian-Condensing stage to the Yuanfu stage and even the Tiangang stage, were former students of Qingyun Academy. There were also a number of exceptionally talented individuals who had left the Qingyun Empire and gained great fame across the vast Qingzhou continent.
Moreover, although Qingyun Academy was located in the capital, its eastern side bordered the largest mountain range in the Qingyun Empire—the Qingtian Mountain Range.
In fact, part of the academy was built right at the entrance of the Qingtian Mountain Range.
Qingtian Mountain Range!
The largest mountain range within the Qingyun Empire, it stretched for millions of miles, with towering mountains and bizarrely shaped trees.
The true depths of the Qingtian Mountain Range were places that even Tiangang-stage warriors within the empire dared not venture into.
The Qingtian Mountain Range was a paradise for warriors seeking adventure, but also a hell. Countless warriors from the empire died within its depths every year. However, because of the spiritual herbs, magical beasts, and even treasures left behind by ancient figures who had passed away, it continued to attract thousands of people every year, who eagerly ventured into it despite the dangers.
Qingyun Academy had the confidence to connect the academy with the mountain range, relying on its profound heritage and formidable strength.
More importantly, this connection made it much easier for academy students to go on expeditions and for the academy to organize various assessments.
Ye Wushuang and Xiao Yuan stood in front of the massive academy gates, which were bustling with activity, causing Xiao Yuan to be taken aback.
