Chapter Twenty-One: Pre-Exam

  Around the wooden platform on the Xiangli Tree, there was a constant hubbub of voices, with all the students except one courtyard being full of praise.

  No one expected this outcome.

  At first, everyone thought that todays competition was just an excuse for the First Institute to take over the Second Institutes five golden leaves, but who would have thought that the three Six-Print Boundary cultivators of the First Institute were actually all defeated by Li Luo.

  What a rare good show this is.

  The key is that there are many dramatic effects mixed in, such as Li Luo being demoted from the first house to the second house, and the reason is that Li Luo was born with an empty phase, limited potential...

  I think Li Luos sudden appearance and strength will make the heart of that Lin Feng instructor in the hospital quite complicated.

  Many students couldnt help but re-examine Li Luo on the scene, wondering if this former fallen star was about to rise again. But now... isnt it a bit too late?

  The noise continued unabated, while the other side of the courtyard was relatively quiet, with many students looking at each other in dismay, their faces equally complex.

  Tifa gazed blankly at Lilos figure, and after a moment, she said in a somewhat incredulous tone: "He wasnt born with an empty fate, was he? How could he suddenly have a fated match?"

  Song Yunfengs face was expressionless, and he too was unable to answer this question.

  "Although the birth of a post-heavenly appearance is extremely rare, its not unheard of. Some special heavenly treasures and earthly wonders can also give rise to such an appearance after one is born, but its extremely rare - even in our great Xia Kingdom, its a sight thats hard to come by once every few hundred years. However, Li Luos parents are two extraordinary individuals, so maybe they have the skills to obtain it." Lu Qinger said from the side.

  Jinlong Treasure House has a vast network of connections, and Lv Qingers second uncle is also the president of Jinlong Treasure House in Nanfeng City, so its no wonder that she knows many things that ordinary people dont know.

  "With such a talented person, why did he wait until now to use him?" Tifa said.

  "It may be that some special conditions are needed, but I dont know what they are either." Lü Qinger said with a faint smile.

  Tifa Qing fell silent for a moment before finally saying, "This guy, is really going to turn over a new leaf?"

  Her tone was somewhat complicated, the Tifa family she was in had some interest disputes with the Luolan government, but compared to the Song family it was much smaller. She and Li Luo also didnt have any special grudges, the only thing that made her dissatisfied was Li Luos engagement to Jiang Qinge.

  "Its not that easy."

  Song Yunfeng said calmly, "Li Luos fate should be a water fate. From the battle with Bei Tun just now, it can be roughly guessed that his product stage is probably between five and six grades. This level of fate is not bad, but its far from excellent."

  "And his cultivation level is at the fifth tier of the Five Seals... Do you think a five or six grade physiognomy with a fifth seal boundary is really that rare?"

  Tifa nodded thoughtfully, if it was this configuration, even in a top ten hospital, she wouldnt be able to get in. Even though Li Luo had an exceptional talent for physiognomy, wanting to reach that dazzling level again would still be very difficult.

  Of course, whats most important is that theres less than a month left before the Imperial Examination... Can Li Luo really catch up in such a short amount of time?

  Tifa can only say its impossible.

  At this point, Tifas heart seemed to have secretly let out a sigh of relief, and for a moment, even she herself didnt know whether she was happy or not to see Lolos resurgence.

  Lü Qinger did not join in their conversation, her beautiful eyes lingering on Li Luos body.

  Have you finally solved the problem of being left behind? So in these last moments, can you really catch up?

  When many students were boiling, on that high platform, a group of Nanfeng Academys high-level officials were somewhat quiet.

  Even Xu Shanyue himself was somewhat stunned by the current result.

  As for Lin Feng, he didnt say a single word from start to finish, his expressionless face was like a wooden stake.

  Other instructors occasionally glanced at Lin Feng with a hint of smile in their eyes.

  Finally, it was the old dean who clapped his hands and smiled: "No wonder hes the son of those two, is this considered a late bloomer?"

  Lin Feng said faintly, "Dean, you may have used the wrong words. The strength of the Five Imprint Realm and the seemingly five or six-grade water attribute, from any angle, cant be considered a great talent."

  The old director shook his head, of course knowing that Lin Feng was a bit out of sorts at this time. He smiled and said: "Youre just too arrogant, youll suffer for it sooner or later."

  Lin Feng didnt say yes or no, then looked at Xu Shanyue and said: "This time I was outdone by others in the same courtyard, ten golden leaves will be given as promised. These kids themselves have no ability, cant even protect it, so let them pay a price too."

  Xu Shanyue sneered: "I thought youd say let Li Luo go back to the hospital again."

  Lin Feng heard this and smiled, saying: "Youre thinking too much. As I said before, hes not a big deal, and our institute doesnt lack a normal student like him. What he should be thinking about now is whether he can catch up in the last month or so and reach the admission requirements of Shengxuan Xing Academy."

  Indeed, although Li Luos sudden appearance of water phase made him somewhat unprepared, if he had to say something regrettable, he really didnt have that feeling.

  After all, this water phase came too late. Now Li Luo is only at the Xiangli level of the Five Seals realm. Moreover, that water phase may not be particularly high-level either. So in Lin Fengs view, Li Luo has merely managed to struggle out of the mud pit with half his body exposed. As for wanting to stand tall again, did he think those excellent students in his academy were just decorations?

  Moreover, the most important thing is that the Grand Exam of the Academy is approaching, and Li Luo doesnt have much time to catch up. If he misses this opportunity, he will miss the age requirement for admission to Shengxuan Xing Academy. In that case, would Lin Feng still care about what achievements Li Luo will make in the future?

  Losing the opportunity to enter the Holy Mystic Academy would be an irreparable loss for Li Luo, and this fact wouldnt change just because he was the young master of the Luolan Manor.

  With these thoughts in mind, Lin Fengs demeanor became even more casual.

  At this time, the old principal rushed to Li Luo in the field and beckoned him. The latter thought for a moment and went up to the viewing platform along the wooden stage.

  "Hello, Dean." Li Luo smiled and greeted.

  The old director smiled and gazed at Li Luo, saying: "Has your Kung Xiang problem been solved?"

  Li Luo nodded and said, "Yes, its a fifth-grade water attribute spell."

  Wu Pins water fell into his ear, and Lin Feng couldnt help but smile slightly, saying: "Li Luo, this waters grade is mediocre, but with more effort, you can still achieve something in the future."

  "This will save Lin Feng from worrying, although the quality of ones cultivation can affect their strength, but in this world, it doesnt necessarily mean that there arent any fifth-grade cultivators who become marquises or kings." said Li Luo Dao.

  Lin Feng sneered: "Five treasures, titles of marquis and king? This is really a childish mentality, can you even believe this?"

  The old principal waved his hand to stop Lin Fengs words, and instead said to Li Luo: "You have this confidence, thats the best, but there is less than a month left before the Academys grand examination. If you want to catch up, Im afraid youll need more effort."

  Li Luo nodded: "Got it."

  The old principal repeated a few words and let Li Luo leave. At the same time, taking advantage of the crowd, he announced to the whole scene: "There is less than a month left before the Academys grand examination, so two weeks later, the pre-examination will be opened in the Academy. In addition, this years basic index of Shengxuan Xing Academy has also come down. Hmm, it requires that the level of unity is not lower than seven seals."

  As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a commotion, with many students looking dejected, and the threshold of at least seven seals was extremely high for them.

  Only one of the top students in the institute had a faint smile on his face.

  As the top institution of Daxia, and even a distinguished existence among neighboring countries, Shengxuan Xing Academy is certainly not a place where anyone can enter.

  "Not less than seven seals..."

  Li Luo smacked his lips, and didnt feel particularly surprised. At present, he was only at the Five Seals Realm, still two stages away from his goal. It seemed that for the next half month, he would truly have to go crazy with cultivation.

  And the Seventh Seal is just a basic indicator, and there will be another struggle later, so if Li Luo wants to be more secure, he feels that he may need to further improve his "Water Light Phase".

  However, the gap between the fifth and sixth ranks is not just a single star or half a point. Li Luo estimated that if things were done this way, he felt that Luolan Prefectures income in Tienshu County would be completely swallowed up by him alone.

  As Li Luo sank into thought, the students in the field had already gradually dispersed amidst their wailing, when he suddenly became aware that someone was walking up to his side.

  Li Luo turned his head and saw Lü Qinger staring at him with a faint expression.

  "Congratulations, young master," she said.

  As soon as Li Luo saw her, he instinctively wanted to dodge, but his footsteps had just moved and then awkwardly stopped.

  "Hello." Li Luo gave a most perfunctory greeting.

  "Cant hide anymore?" Lü Qinger said.

  "Its really not hidden." Li Luo said awkwardly.

  Lü Qinger didnt confirm or deny, saying: "Li Luo, Im very grateful for your guidance on physiognomy back then. However, I think you shouldnt have been so childish and avoided me all these years. I didnt take your place, and you should understand that this position isnt given by anyone, but rather needs to be seized with strength."

  "Li Luo, I am now the number one person in Nanfeng Academy. If you want to take back this position, come and defeat me. In the past, because of your sensitive mood, it was not good to say these words, but now that you have solved the problem of Kong Xiang, if you are still a man, you should take back what you lost."

  Li Luo smiled bitterly and nodded: "Then, Ill try my best."

  Lü Qinger smiled, and then Li Luo saw a hint of cold annoyance flowing out from the depths of her eyes.

  "Ive been waiting for you... Also, Im telling you that your behavior in recent years has made me appreciate you less, so if theres a chance..."

  She said up to this point, but it was cut off, and only that cold and stern gaze had already revealed everything.

  As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and left directly.

  Li Luo looked at her back and could only shake his head helplessly, it seemed that this time he had offended Lü Qinger. Indeed, the more beautiful a woman is, the more careful one must be!

  But as he was sighing, he suddenly felt a gaze that made his skin crawl lingering on him, so he turned around.

  He saw a figure on the wooden platform in the distance, with an icy gaze staring at him, and that gaze was filled with a warning.

  That is the second person in the hospital now, Song Yunfeng.

  The two exchanged a brief glance, Song Yunfengs eyes gleaming with sharpness and aggression. He immediately shook his head in disdain, his lips parting to convey unspoken words.

  "Li Luo, dont look for trouble, stay away from Lü Qinger."

  He believes Li Luo should know what his lip language means because he thinks its a basic operation.

  Not far away, Li Luo furrowed his brow and muttered to himself: "What is this fool doing? If you want to talk, just shout it out directly. Your mouth is moving around like a mouse stealing food, who knows what youre talking about?"

  Because he couldnt tell what the other person was doing, Li Luo ultimately shook his head and didnt bother to deal with him anymore, turning around and leaving directly.

  Song Yunfeng on the wooden stage stared at Li Luos departing figure, his eyes narrowing slightly, with a gloomy gaze.

  How can you neglect me like this? Youre too arrogant.

  Li Luos eyes reminded him of when Li Luo was at his most glorious in Nanfeng Academy, and at that time, Li Luo shone with a dazzling light.

  But...

  Song Yunfengs palms couldnt help but clench tightly around the wooden rod, squeezing out lines of cracks.

  What are you pretending to be? Do you really think that just because of a five-element physiognomy, you can return to your former self?
