Chapter 1625 I Don't Tell Others

Lu Zijia didn't reply immediately, but looked at the man next to her.

Sensing the questioning gaze of the people around him, Mu Tianyan said, "Let's enter the city first."

There were still three days before the registration period for Hongtian Academy started. Before that, they had to find a place to stay first.

Otherwise, they would only be able to sleep on the streets.

After making a decision, Lu Zijia and her husband left a thousand Spirit Stones and entered Hongtian City before Pan Yiquan and his son.

"Very dense spiritual energy."

The moment he pa.s.sed through the city gate, Mu Tianyan immediately felt spiritual energy that was several times stronger than outside rus.h.i.+ng towards him.

Lu Zijia smiled and said, "This is also the reason why everyone has to pay 50 spiritual stones to enter the city just now. There's a huge Spirit Gathering Array in Hongtian City. It's said that it was set up by the ancestors of the four largest families in Hongtian City."

Hearing that, Mu Tianyan nodded in understanding.

Then, the two of them looked for a place to stay in the city.

However, too many people came to register for Hongtian Academy, causing most of the inns to be full.

After searching for a long time, Lu Zijia and the others finally found a small inn that was very remote and didn't have good conditions.

"Fellow Taoists, are you also here to register for Hongtian Academy?" The waiter of the inn said to the two of them as if they were close friends, "Oh right, my name is Xu Qi. I'm also preparing to partic.i.p.ate in the registration for the academy this time. If we're lucky, we might even be cla.s.smates!"

"My name is Lu Zijia. This is my Dao companion, Mu Tianyan."

Lu Zijia replied with a smile, "Fellow Taoist Xu, do you know what the academy tests when recruiting students?"

"Hey, you're asking the right person." Xu Qi smiled proudly. "Let me tell you, I spent a Herculean effort to find out about this news. I won't tell others! However, seeing that you're fated with me, I'll tell you."

"It's said that apart from the test of talent and cultivation according to the rules, the last test is to throw all the students who signed up into a desolate mountain. If they could protect the specific flags distributed to them by the academy, they would pa.s.s. Of course, if you get more flags, it means that you're more outstanding and you'll also be a.s.signed to an outstanding cla.s.s. At the same time, the top ten will also be rewarded. It's said that the first place will obtain an Earth-rank pill and a chance to enter the inner building!"

The more Xu Qi spoke, the more excited he became. He even forgot to walk.

"Do you know the inner building of Hongtian Academy? Only the dean can enter the inner building of Hongtian Academy. If others want to enter, they have to contribute to the academy."

"What's in the inner building of Hongtian Academy?" Lu Zijia asked curiously.

Xu Qi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, I'm not sure either, but I heard that there are many high-level ancient books, such as alchemy and weapon refinement techniques."

Lu Zijia nodded in realization. "Thank you for answering my question, Fellow Taoist Xu."

"You're welcome, you're welcome. We might become cla.s.smates. It's only right for cla.s.smates to help each other. You don't have to be polite to me." Xu Qi waved his hand indifferently and said matter-of-factly.

"Xu Qi, you brat, why are you dawdling again? There's a guest. Come down and entertain him!"

An intermediate and furious roar came from the first floor, scaring Xu Qi so much that he subconsciously shrank his neck, looking too cowardly!
