Chapter 53 – Inside Wei Yang Palace (2/2)
There must be some type of seal in the Wei Yang Palace so that wind couldn’t enter.
There were many seats put up in the palace. Starseeker Academy, Academy of Priests, Heavenly Academy, Academy of Li Palace, and Thirteen Division of Green Light still occupied the best positions. The students who passed the semi-trial were sitting in the scattered seats.
Many people had already arrived, and many more were still coming. There were officers from the Department of Education and officials of the government taking attendance in the front door. Besides their voices, the entire palace was quiet. Once in a while a person would stand up and greet their friends, but most of the people were silent.
“The Tradition Academy is here.”
Following the attendance of the officer, the entire palace fell into a complete silence. But it was shattered a moment later. Countless whispers began to appear and discussion were being made. All eyes glanced towards the entrance of the palace and landed on the young boy and the young girl.
Tradition Academy was the least well known, or you can say almost forgotten, of the entire Six Ivies. In the previous years, the Tradition Academy didn’t even have a seat in the Ivy Festival. But after the first night of this year’s Ivy Festival, this school was remembered by many people and wouldn’t be forgotten this time.
Everyone was looking at Chen Chang Sheng and Luo Luo who were standing at the palace entrance. Their eyes weren’t filled with curiosity or sympathy, but rather caution and suspicion. Many of them were looking at Luo Luo. Those eyes were especially heavy and filled with fear.
After that night, many people were checking the background of the Tradition Academy. They knew about the approximate background of Chen Chang Sheng from the Department of Education, but still no one could find out the identity of Luo Luo. They only know that this young girl appeared in the Heavenly Academy and the Starseeker Academy. The principal of Heavenly Academy, Mao Qiu Yu, knew the background of this young girl. Some people also found out that the guests of Royal Court also appeared with this young girl. The Yu Tian General, Xue Xing Chuan, advised his people in his mansion to be careful around the young girl.
But they couldn’t ask or force these powerful characters to leak any information.
The background of Luo Luo remained mysterious and unknown. But through these big characters people, they could at least know that her background wasn’t ordinary, or else the Tradition Academy and herself wouldn’t be safe after she handicapped that little monster of the Family of Tian Hai while the professor of Heavenly Academy had disappeared.
Of course, the reason that Luo Luo became an interesting character in the capital wasn’t only due her mysterious background and relationship with the royal palace, but because of her strength that was shown on the first night of Ivy Festival. At such a young age, the young girl was already this powerful. Perhaps only Xu You Rong could defeat her, but Xu You Rong was born talented with the bloodline of Sky Phoenix. Who was this genius that popped out of nowhere?
Compared to Luo Luo, Chen Chang Sheng received very little attention. Everyone could see that this youngster still didn’t reach Purification and was just an ordinary person. Although people didn’t understand why Luo Luo respected him so much, they wouldn’t look at him otherwise just because of her respect towards him.
An officer of the Department of Education walked from the side to the front of the palace and announced to the students of Six Ivies and the students who passed the semi trials that the Southern ambassadors will arrive at the capital tonight. They will be staying at the Academy of Li Palace and will accept the blessing from the Pope. After that, they will enter the palace and the event when start a little late.
Hearing this news, the people in the palace weren’t particularly happy. But the weird thing is that the mood in the palace was lifted. It was clear that the young geniuses led by Gou Han Shi in the southern ambassador put a lot of pressure on the prideful youths of the Zhou Dynasty.
But since they needed to wait, they couldn’t just sit around. The attendance continued and the students and staff all stood up and greeted people who they were familiar with. They talked about the interesting things that happened recently and discussed how Gou Han Shi would perform later. All was lively.
The Tradition Academy’s position was still in the corner and undisturbed by anyone. Except in the past the Tradition Academy was actually forgotten by the entire world, but now the entire world was ignoring the Tradition Academy’s existence on purpose. The difference between the two may be small, but it was important.
Of course, this purposeful ignorance was mainly due to the arrival of the southern ambassadors. Many people didn’t want to attract the troubles onto themselves – it seemed like the two powers of the Zhou Dynasty were trying to compete with each other through the Tradition Academy. If it was any other time, there would be tons of people challenging Chen Chang Sheng and Luo Luo – but not now. There will be a more important thing happening in the Wei Yang Palace tonight, it would be more important than the new students of the Tradition Academy and the possible collision of the two powers of the Zhou Dynasty.
The marriage proposal tonight was the single most important thing happening in the human world.
Xu You Rong has the bloodline of Sky Phoenix, which would only appear once in a thousand years. Qiu Shan Jun has the bloodline of Heavenly Dragon, which was unheard of in the world. Plus, Mountain Virgin and Mountain Li were the most powerful sects in the southern hemisphere. If it was actually mentioned, they would be students of the same sect. No matter how you look at it, they were a destined pair blessed by heaven.
The Zhou Dynasty also liked to see the success of this marriage – not because people like to see perfection out of perfection, but rather because Xu You Rong will become the Virgin of Southern Sects. She would be the first girl from the capital in the history to take this position. Qiu Shan Jun would become the Guardian of the Southern Sect. There are two Traditions in the north and south, people’s mind were also divided between the north and south. But the entire human world would be bound closer together due to this marriage, and the war against the demon race would have a better result.
The entire human world would like to see Xu Yong Rong married to Qiu Shan Jun.
Anyone wish against it would be rebelling against the entire world.
Editor bing- Seriously… if the Xu You Rong had the blood of the Sky Phoenix and Qiu Shan Jun has the blood of the Heavenly Dragon, then the MC obvs has the blood of the divine god. Like What kinda bloodline requires one to freaking sheeshkabobing amount of energy just to reach the purification stage? Common please… they are geniuses then our MC is god… Well this is just my ranting but seriously I am kinda annoyed by how the two are so respected …
