Madam, look at the sword!

Chapter 101 A glance in the crowd (4000 requests for subscriptions)

Ye Chaoxi didn't know that her coming down the mountain had brought blessings to Wan Lei City, but also brought tremendous pressure to Zhou Tian, ​​especially after the news was brewing.

Early in the morning, he and Wei Huan smashed a corner of the rockery, smashed the arched courtyard wall, and trampled on countless stone slabs. Zhao Chengfeng, who felt very relieved, took a bath and changed clothes. After a simple breakfast, he faced the morning light. Riding in a carriage, we walked through the streets of Kyoto.

The reason why I chose to walk is because since I came to Kyoto, I seem to take a carriage everywhere I go, so I seem to miss a lot of scenery.

Whenever important events require calmness, Zhao Chengfeng walked amidst the scenery of Kyoto in the morning and came to the front of Qingsong Academy while watching.

But it was different from the past. As soon as I stepped into the academy, I felt a change in the atmosphere.

When the news of Zong Ke's entry into the imperial court came, although the academy was like a taut bow string, it was still full of prosperity. You could see the vitality on the faces of the students and the straight spines of the boys and girls.

But how do you look at it today?

Although Zhao Chengfeng didn't want to describe it this way, he did find that his classmates seemed to be a bit like zombies.

On the way to Qingmingtang, I met Fat Face and Bamboo Pole. Even today, they both looked like they were sighing, like cocks that had lost a fight.

"No, this is what you are doing?"

"My lord, don't say you don't know anything."

Before Zhao Chengfeng could answer anything, he saw a shadow rushing over among the crowd of students.

Recently, under the influence of the girls from Kyoto, he became more and more good at dressing up. He put on more makeup and powder. Urentuya, who was indeed much whiter, came to him and was ignored by the third prince.

Zhao Chengfeng continued his conversation with Fat Face and Zhugan:

"What should I know?"

"Someone from Qingshan Sword Sect is here."

After hearing this, Zhao Chengfeng raised his eyebrows slightly. He felt that it would be better not to say some things.

But I don’t know if it’s because I have been relying on the Third Prince’s side for schoolwork every day recently. Wu Rentuya understood what he meant as soon as he saw his expression, so he said to Fat Face and Zhugan, who had also eaten together many times in the cafeteria. :

"The prince's expression means that Qingshan Sword Sect has a trivial relationship with you two losers."

Urentuya still has some accent in Zhoutian dialect, but the word "jifei" is spoken in a smooth and round tone, which makes him speak it extremely pure.

Zhao Chengfeng coughed when he heard this, and he didn't understand. How could she even translate the curse words in her thoughts?

Fat Face and Zhugan didn't feel hurt when they heard this, but started singing together.

Fat face: "Well, since last night, one thing has begun to be recognized, that is, among the four major academy disciples currently on Zhou Tian's Qingyun Ranking, no one should be able to beat Ye Chaoxi."

Zhugan: "The three chiefs of the three major sects may be able to compete, but there is a high probability that they will lose. And who doesn't know that the three major sects of Zhoutian were originally branches of the three ancient sects? They must wear a pair of pants. !”

Fat Face: "So, the top spot has been decided."

Zhugan added fuel to the fire: "What's even more frightening is that Sui Shanhe, the first of the Thirty-Six Immortal Sects of Yunqin, will also come."

The fat face continued: "Also, the seventy-two Yunqin sects of Wanfa Chenjian who do not use swords have also embarked on their way to Zhoutian."

Urentuya sighed when he heard this.

But after Zhao Chengfeng heard this, his expression remained unchanged.

The fat face is quite self-aware: "...Okay, these have nothing to do with us."

Zhugan said with a mournful face: "But Prince, do you know that Zhou Tian's reform of the imperial examination has attracted thousands of sects to come to the court, and I don't know how many nameless little shrimps will also come to Zhou Tian."

Fat Face coughed: "Even if we were to target these shrimps, we seem to be unable to defeat them."

After saying these words, Zhao Chengfeng understood why they were so anxious, and heard Wu Rentuya sigh again next to him.

So, he looked at Wu Rentuya: "No, I can understand them. After all, if you can't pass the imperial examination, you can't be an official of Zhou Tian. You, a native of Dahuang, can't participate in the imperial examination, and you shouldn't expect us Zhou Tian." Are you making a fool of yourself? Why are you sighing?"

Urentuya shook his head: "Persimmon, you may not believe it. I recently became a Zhou Tianren."

Zhao Chengfeng: "Huh?"

Fat Face and Bamboo Rod: "Huh?"

Wu Rentuya raised his neck and said: "This is why my mother asked me to come to Zhoutian in the first place, because I was born from the peace between Zhoutian and Dahuang people!"

Zhao Chengfeng: "...peace is not a nice word, and there is no need to say it so proudly."

Urintua: "Oh, really, compared to chicken feathers?"

If he had a fat face and a bamboo pole, he would definitely be laughing. Today, it was not fun to listen to it. Instead, they all lamented: "Anyway, we, the four major academies in this year, have no hope~"

There were classmates passing by, and they all thought deeply after hearing what they said.

Zhao Chengfeng, who had been unable to avoid looking at the top before, was a little limited in his own body and understood the reason for the current atmosphere in the academy.

In fact, if it weren't for Zong Ke, he would have entered the court.

The probability of students from the four major academies who have been supported in the past thirty years to successfully enter the court is not low.

And because he was born in Kyoto, coupled with his academy background, and the natural network of connections brought by his senior brothers and even his husband and teachers, no matter where he goes in Zhoutian, he will be treated with courtesy, and his future will be infinitely brighter than the last.

What's more important is that it is well known that Zhou Tian's officials are very valuable.

Because, in the past thirty years, Zhou Tian has been the only country in the world that has become a sect.

The most valuable thing is that unless one has extraordinary talent in cultivation, the major sects in the four seas of Kyushu are deeply entrenched, intertwined, and have serious class solidification. Without blood, marriage, etc. relationships, it is basically difficult to get ahead.

The Yunqin Dynasty was a country of sects, and all kinds of officials had to communicate with the local sects no matter what they did.

Zhou Tian's official is not only powerful, but also has gathered all kinds of natural cultivation resources during the thirty years of de-sectarianization, and his salary even includes spiritual crystals and elixirs. It is quite generous.

Therefore, Zong Ke's entry into the court this time is extremely attractive to the Zhoutian talents who entered the sect for various reasons in the early years.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhugan said with a mournful face that Wan Zong came to court.

So of course when Zhao Chengfeng stepped into Qingming Hall this morning, he found that except for the heroic female teacher Su Qiuyi, who was as good as ever, the other students were like eggplants beaten by frost. It was rare for a few to be normal, but they couldn't open their eyes. The normal smile was gone from the corner of his mouth.

Can't really blame them.

When Wan Zong comes to court, they will seize the court position that originally belonged to them and should have been relatively easy to obtain.

But now, as news comes from various sources, no matter what level of opponent they are targeting, it is found that a large number of sect disciples are eyeing them. Who wouldn't feel great pressure?

Zhao Chengfeng looked at the appearance of the classmates around him today, and even felt that they might not be happy if he invited them to go to a brothel together at night.

Because obviously, Zong Ke's entry into the DPRK is a big policy. If there is no hope this year, there may not be one next year. It will be like this for who knows how many years to come.

This is very disappointing.

Therefore, everyone was absent-minded during today’s morning breathing class.

At the end of the day, the third prince sat down next to the female instructor Su Qiuyi and asked: "Sir, I have been wanting to ask you a question for so many days."

Su Qiuyi raised her willow-like eyebrows: "What?"

Zhao Chengfeng is a rogue: "Are you married?"

When Su Qiuyi frowned, the Qingming Hall finally regained some of its usual vigor and vitality due to His Highness the Crown Prince's bold actions, and some laughter and shouts erupted. I noticed that the originally desperate atmosphere in the hall had changed slightly.

Su Qiuyi looked at Zhao Chengfeng beside her and replied, "No, but I know you are married."

As a result, the whistle of Qingmingtang sounded, and Zhao Chengfeng's classmates watched the excitement one by one without taking it too seriously, seeming to have finally temporarily forgotten the fact that their future was uncertain.

Zhao Chengfeng shouted amidst the noise: "This will make you stand out. Just now, everyone's face collapsed."

After saying that, he strode out of the hall and rushed to Huiming Hall with such enthusiasm.

Su Qiuyi looked at Zhao Chengfeng's back, relaxed her eyebrows, and smiled helplessly.

Zhao Chengfeng can also tease his classmates, but he can't change the overall situation.

Today, it is not just Qingsong Academy, but also the other three major academies. There is indeed an atmosphere of despair everywhere.

This despair naturally brings about depression.

Even at noon, when Zhao Chengfeng came to the cafeteria, which is usually the busiest in the academy, he found that although there were whispers and chats, the voices were very low, and there was no lively atmosphere like the past.

Sitting down with Urentuya, feeling a little depressed, there was the sound of particularly heavy footsteps.

At a quick glance, I saw Fat Face and Bamboo Poles walking quickly.

The two of them are famous loudmouths in Qingsong Academy, and they are also well-informed.

So when they appeared, they attracted a lot of people's attention.

"Your Majesty, stop eating and let's go~"

Zhao Chengfeng: "Why are you going?"

"Some students from Yinglong Academy have issued a challenge to the students from Yunji Academy, right at Dali Temple!"

I don't know who was speechless and said: "Isn't that a place where old ladies fight?"

So Zhao Chengfeng immediately glanced around. Not only did the voice not appear again, there were also a group of people who turned their heads and chose not to look at the playboy.

Seeing his eyes, Chuang Lian and Zhu Guan knew how to chat:

"It has to be you, the Crown Prince. If you hadn't set this precedent with the Third Prince of Dahuang, who would have thought that the practitioners in the ring at Dali Temple could also be on it."

"Isn't that right? On this gloomy day, thanks to the prince's previous feats, we have the opportunity to see the fun we have now."

Zhao Chengfeng didn't find it interesting...

Suddenly, I discovered that many people got up after hearing the news about Fat Face and Bamboo Pole, and probably went to the front of Dali Temple.

So he frowned and understood that today was too depressing for most students. It was better to have some fun than nothing.

Moreover, the academy was really depressed now, so he stood up and said, "Let's go and join in the fun."

So the four of them didn't even eat lunch and headed straight to the gate of Dali Temple.

Unexpectedly, there were already many people here when I arrived.

Perhaps it was because it was too depressing. Students from the four major academies everywhere surrounded the Dali Temple arena.

Especially those from Yinglong and Yunji academies, they are all looking forward to it, because the people who are about to face off in the ring are from their academies, and there is a sense of opposition between the camps.

Maybe everyone needs an outlet to vent their emotions.

It may also be that the four major academies had a lot of grievances in the past.

They suddenly discovered the Dali Temple Arena, which seemed to open a window to a new world for them.

Zhao Chengfeng, the culprit, also saw that many students lined up in a long queue in front of the square pavilion used to declare the challenge under the arena.

The competition and competition in this arena will actually continue.

This is how things happened, inexplicably.

The confrontation between Yinglong Academy and Yunji Academy that Fat Face and Zhugan said was no longer important. They pushed the gears of fate to turn.

After they stepped down, no ordinary people came on stage again. Students from the four major academies came on stage one after another, to take revenge and complain.

The Shuntian Mansion was forced to send two masters to take charge, for fear that these children would defeat each other.

And the excitement here, within half an hour, naturally attracted more people from Kyoto, as well as more students who skipped classes and came to the scene.

For a time, there was a huge crowd of people.

There was actually some atmosphere and excitement like the Third Prince's battle with the Third Prince of Dahuang that day.

The students in the four major academies were no longer depressed, and naturally gathered in the four major camps, applauding and shouting for the contestants in their respective academies who took the stage.

Looking at all the changes in front of him, Zhao Chengfeng had to think...

Isn't this a replica of what he and Wei Huanchu seemed to want to discuss after feeling the pressure?

The difference is that the four major academies have a large number of people. Through the medium of Dali Temple Arena, a communication and discussion can be formed, and it can also be an outlet for venting.

It seems to be a good thing.

Zhao Chengfeng felt that it was interesting and his trip was worthwhile. The arena had just emptied out and before the next round of people came up, there was a commotion from the southeast.

Someone shouted: "Master Longxiang is here~!"

So a group of people shouted this sentence repeatedly, and even made a gap in the southeast direction.

Zhao Chengfeng soon saw that surrounded by a group of young men and young ladies in gorgeous clothes, a young man who was extremely tall, not handsome at all, but with a proud temperament and aristocratic style came into view.

Maybe the strong attract.

Ranked eleventh on the Qingyun Ranking, this second-generation dude from Kyoto, with a strong family background and a reputation for being generous, looked casually into the distance and saw a handsome face.

Zhao Chengfeng never thought that he was just watching the excitement and saw Young Master Long Xiang standing in front of him and looking at him.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Master Long Xiang avoided him.

So the Third Prince raised his eyebrows and strode towards the Fangting queue at the ring registration area. Urentuya followed and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Fat Face and Zhugan were also watching the fun. Just when they felt that the women brought by Mr. Longxiang were quite charming in a way that the academy girls did not have, they saw the prince's movements and hurriedly followed them.

So naturally, a magical scene happened again.

The students lining up in front to sign off the challenge saw Zhao Chengfeng, the third son of Prince Dangbei, and gave way one after another.

The main reason is not that I am afraid of him, but that when he comes here, he will naturally declare a challenge. The excitement of his declaration is naturally the biggest excitement, and everyone wants to see it.

So Zhao Chengfeng quickly walked through the road that was like a welcoming road with crowds of people on both sides, and came to Fang Pavilion.

After receiving the letter of challenge from the ring boss, he added his own name and the name of Mr. Long Xiang.

As for the reason for the challenge at the bottom.

"He looked at me."
