Ye Feifei was indignant as she declared, “I was actually not yet eleven years old, and I wasn’t supposed to participate. But my teacher said it would be a pity if I didn’t, so he made an exception and allowed me to join!”
“Brother Qi Yuan, just you wait—I’m going to come in first place!”
Xu Qi Yuan chuckled and said, “Then let’s make a bet. If you come in first, I’ll treat you to a feast at Shi Wei Xuan. But if you don’t, you treat me. How about that?”
“It’s a deal!”
Xu Qi Yuan and Tang Tianyou often visited the Ye Mansion, so they had become quite familiar with Ye Feifei.
After breakfast, Ye Wushuang took Ye Feifei, Xu Qi Yuan, and Tang Tianyou and left.
With Ye Wushuang accompanying Ye Feifei, Ye Qingfeng and Liu Yuemei didn’t need to go along.
On the street, Ye Wushuang led Ye Feifei, with Xu Qi Yuan and Tang Tianyou following behind. At the end of the line, Old He, dressed in the attire of an elderly servant, strolled along with a calm demeanor.
With Old He, a powerhouse at the Tian Gang realm, by their side, no one dared to make a move against Ye Wushuang in broad daylight.
After passing through several bustling markets, the group arrived in front of a grand and imposing courtyard gate.
The gate was over ten feet tall and nearly thirty feet wide.
Above the lintel were four large characters:
Qingtian Academy!
If Qingyun Academy was the ultimate martial cultivation sanctuary for young prodigies who had truly entered the path of martial arts in the capital of Qingyun Empire, then Qingtian Academy was the most coveted place for children under the age of sixteen.
Qingtian Academy only admitted boys and girls aged ten to fifteen, and it had very strict requirements.
The reason Ye Feifei was able to enter Qingtian Academy was thanks to the influence of Qingyun Pavilion.
The academy gathered the younger generation of prominent families in the capital, and even the five great families would send their children here to learn the basics of martial cultivation.
At that moment, in front of the vast gate of Qingtian Academy, there were hundreds of carriages drawn by various spiritual beasts, creating a scene of bustling activity and constant traffic.
“Is it really this lively?” Ye Wushuang exclaimed in surprise.
“Of course!” Xu Qi Yuan laughed and explained, “Qingtian Academy is filled with children from wealthy and powerful families in the capital, all aged between ten and fifteen.”
“The academy requires that the youngest be ten and the oldest fifteen, and they are divided into two age groups for cultivation.”
“Those who are ten to under thirteen years old study at the Qingyun School, while those who are thirteen to fifteen study at the Qingyun Academy!”
“The Qingyun School, where Feifei is, only admits children aged ten to under thirteen.”
“Generally, children in the ten to under thirteen age group are at the first or second level of physical training, though some may reach the third level.”
“But once they turn thirteen, up to the age of fifteen, many are at the third or fourth level, and there are even some who have reached the sixth level…”
Xu Qi Yuan continued to describe the various aspects of Qingtian Academy.
After listening, Ye Wushuang felt overwhelmed for a moment.
These requirements were even stricter than those of Qingyun Academy!
“It’s just too exaggerated…” Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but exclaim.
“What’s exaggerated about it?” Xu Qi Yuan replied matter-of-factly. “Do you know what the success rate is for students who graduate from Qingtian Academy, pass the Qingyun Academy assessment, and enter Qingyun Academy every year?”
“How much?”
“Hundred percent!”
“……”
No wonder even the great families sent their young children here.
As the group stood in front of the academy gate, a carriage drawn by a Fire Yuan Lion slowly pulled up to the entrance.
The curtain was drawn aside, and a figure gracefully descended.
She appeared to be around eighteen or nineteen years old, with a graceful figure, waist-length hair, and an enchanting beauty.
After she stepped out of the carriage, a young boy of about eleven or twelve, with a fair face and long hair, followed her. He was also quite handsome.
The woman glanced around the academy and her eyes landed on Ye Wushuang, her expression one of surprise. “Ye Wushuang, what are you doing here?”
Ye Wushuang looked over, his eyebrows arching slightly in recognition.
