Chapter 1785: Chapter 1785: Is That So Funny?
Li Yao and Chen Yingsheng were discussing the trial tasks for the Outer Sect disciples at the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus when they suddenly received a Message Talisman from Hu Fu.
Seeing it was from Hu Fu, Li Yao felt puzzled, as he didn’t have much interaction with Hu Fu.
Feeling strange, he opened the Message Talisman.
After reading it, his expression turned uncertain.
Seeing Chen Yingsheng’s confusion beside him, he handed the Message Talisman to Chen Yingsheng.
"Yang Xiaotian has come to Hongmeng City to take the Main Campus disciple examination!" Chen Yingsheng exclaimed after reading it: "Has he broken through to the Saint Tenth Layer Realm?!"
Li Yao was both surprised and doubtful, like Chen Yingsheng, he couldn’t quite believe Yang Xiaotian had already broken through to the Saint Tenth Layer Realm.
However, if it were true, Yang Xiaotian’s growth speed would indeed be terrifying.
Thinking of this, Li Yao’s killing intent surged greatly.
Previously, even knowing Yang Xiaotian possessed the Hongmeng Holy Body, he didn’t have such a strong killing intent.
"But if Yang Xiaotian has indeed broken through to the Saint Realm, he absolutely must not be allowed to pass the Main Campus disciple examination!" Chen Yingsheng said solemnly.
With Yang Xiaotian’s terrifying talent, once he entered the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus, it would be like a dragon entering the sea, and with the cultivation resources of the Main Campus, Yang Xiaotian’s advancement would be even more terrifying.
Li Yao frowned.
If they don’t want Yang Xiaotian to enter the Main Campus, they can only change the examination content and increase the difficulty to make Yang Xiaotian fail the test.
However, even though he was the Grand Hall Master of the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus, he couldn’t arbitrarily change the examination content for Main Campus disciples.
After all, above him was the Main Campus Headmaster of the Hongmeng Academy.
To change the examination content for Main Campus disciples, he needed the approval of the Main Campus Headmaster.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the month.
During these ten-plus days, apart from cultivating, Yang Xiaotian was also studying the beast taming techniques, the formation, and the rusty little bell he had acquired at Silver Demon Ridge from the cave mansion of the Silver Demon Strange Man.
This little bell remained rusty, and no matter how many methods he tried, it showed no reaction.
He had searched numerous books but found no information or records about this little bell.
The word "Luo" on the bell’s body he kept researching, but still couldn’t uncover any secrets.
"Young Master, tomorrow is the first of the month." Old Lu came to remind Yang Xiaotian.
Yang Xiaotian had instructed him to remind him at the end of the month so that he wouldn’t miss the Main Campus disciple examination on the first of the next month.
Yang Xiaotian nodded, put the little bell away, and asked, "Is there any news lately?"
"I’ve heard Qian Hai is also participating in the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus disciple examination tomorrow." Old Lu said.
"Oh, Mu Sanye’s disciple is also taking tomorrow’s disciple examination." Yang Xiaotian said with some surprise.
However, since Mu Sanye is a Supreme Elder of the Hongmeng Academy Main Campus, and Qian Hai is his disciple, he naturally hopes his disciple joins the Main Campus.
Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotian felt assured.
"Yes, and I heard not only Qian Hai but also Hu Mingyu from the Hu Family are participating in tomorrow’s disciple examination." Old Lu said.
"Hu Mingyu, one of the double prides of the Hu Family?" Yang Xiaotian asked.
Yang Xiaotian had also heard of Hu Mingyu, known as one of the two great prodigies of the Hu Family and the most talented disciple of the Hu Family’s younger generation.
The Hu Dong he had killed had good talent, but was far inferior to Hu Mingyu.
Before Yang Xiaotian joined the Hongmeng Academy, Hu Mingyu was even hailed as one of the three great genius swordsmen of the younger generation on the Three Pure Continents.
"Yes, that’s Hu Mingyu, one of the double prides of the Hu Family." Old Lu said: "Many people say that Li Yao wants to take Hu Mingyu as his Closed-door Disciple."
Li Yao, as the Grand Hall Master of the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus, is second only to one in the Hongmeng Academy, and there is no shortage of talented disciples at the Main Campus, but they didn’t catch his eye. Now he wants to take Hu Mingyu as his Closed-door Disciple, which shows Hu Mingyu’s high talent.
Yang Xiaotian nodded, chatting with Old Lu as they walked out of the mansion.
These days, he and Old Lu had also been staying inside the mansion and had not gone out. This time it was a chance to stroll around Hongmeng City.
The registration hall of the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus was easily found, and the two made their way to the registration hall.
In front of the registration hall was a large square.
On the square gathered masters from various families and disciples from various branches of the Hongmeng Academy.
At the end of every month, a large number of branch disciples would come to register for the Outer Sect disciple examination of the Hongmeng Academy.
"It’s said that the Son of Hongmeng, Qian Hai, and Hu Mingyu will also participate in the Main Campus disciple examination tomorrow!"
When Yang Xiaotian arrived, he discovered many masters on the square discussing the fact that Mu Sanye’s disciple Qian Hai and Hu Mingyu would also take the Main Campus disciple examination tomorrow.
Just as Yang Xiaotian was about to enter the registration hall to sign up, there was a commotion in the crowd as Hu Mingyu arrived at the scene, surrounded by a group of Hu Family masters.
Hu Mingyu clearly intended to register.
Seeing Hu Mingyu indeed coming to register for the Main Campus disciple examination tomorrow, the crowd at the scene was abuzz with discussions.
"Young Master Hu!" Many masters even greeted Hu Mingyu warmly and obsequiously.
Many had also heard the news that Li Yao wanted to take Hu Mingyu as his disciple.
Yang Xiaotian ignored Hu Mingyu and others, turned around, and entered the registration hall, lining up at the back of the queue.
Since only disciples who were in the Saint Tenth Layer Realm of the Hongmeng Academy branches could register, there weren’t many people; only a dozen stood before Yang Xiaotian in line.
However, Hu Mingyu clearly didn’t want to queue. After entering the hall behind Yang Xiaotian, he proceeded to walk directly to the front.
Just as Hu Mingyu was about to bypass Yang Xiaotian and go straight to the front to register, Yang Xiaotian extended his hand to block him: "If you want to register, line up."
Hu Mingyu and the group of Hu Family masters were taken aback.
"Line up?" Hu Mingyu looked at Yang Xiaotian and chuckled: "You want me to line up?"
The Hu Family group also began to laugh.
Yang Xiaotian looked at the other party indifferently: "Is that funny?"
Hu Mingyu laughed and said, "Which idiot did you roll out from?" Then his expression turned cold: "Move your hand away! If you dare touch my robe even slightly, I’ll tear your arm off!" After saying that, he waved his hand, intending to brush Yang Xiaotian’s hand aside.
However, he clearly underestimated this so-called idiot before him. When he waved his hand, not only did he fail to brush Yang Xiaotian’s hand aside, he was instead sent recoiling backwards by a powerful force.
In the end, Hu Mingyu, unable to control his body, crashed into the door frame and fell out of the hall, falling flat on his face.
Everyone was stunned.
The laughter on the face of the Hu Family entourage froze.
Even the Elder in the hall of the Hongmeng Academy’s Main Campus who was in charge of registration was perplexed.
Hu Mingyu, being one of the two great prodigies of the Hu Family, hailed as one of the three great genius swordsmen of the younger generation on the Three Pure Continents, unrivaled in the same Realm, had now been sent sprawling flat by this disciple of the initial Saint Tenth Layer!
Lying on the ground, Hu Mingyu also froze for a moment.
