C26 (1/2)
In Central State's Great Zhou Dynasty, the capital was singing.
Within Zhaoge city, the streets and alleys were filled with lights and festoons, the streets were filled with a steady stream of pedestrians. Everyone had a happy expression on their faces, and the atmosphere within the capital was peaceful.
The Great Zhou Academy, one of the six great academies in the current Divine Continent. Today was the day of the recruitment examination of the Great Zhou Academy every four years, and it was also the big day of celebration for the entire Great Zhou Empire!
Speaking of the Great Zhou Academy, it was the cradle used to nurture and channel talent for the Great Zhou Empire. It was one of the key talents of the Great Zhou Empire that they valued the most. As a result of this, the Great Zhou Empire had especially given up the area within the imperial city where the mystical Qi was the most flourishing, and had let the Ji Emperor personally act to invite the current formation masters to join them in laying down the Mysterious Spirit Convergence Array for the Great Zhou Academy. Within Zhaoge city, there were a total of two gathering profound formations. One was the imperial capital of the dynasty, while the other was the Great Zhou Academy. It could be seen how important the Great Zhou Empire regarded the academy, which was naturally unspeakable.
In the Great Zhou Academy, rows and rows of impressive looking buildings were arranged in an orderly fashion. Over a thousand buildings were surrounded by a faint layer of profound energy, and the entire Great Zhou Academy was exuding an incomparably exuberant aura of vitality.
A huge stone doorway, written in large golden characters — Great Zhou Academy.
On both sides of the stone building, there were four bright red iron gates. This was the only way for the students to get in and out of the academy.
Now, the eight bright red iron gates had all opened wide. Outside the eight iron gates, eight long, densely packed human dragons were lined up like a sea of people.
”Wow, this is the Great Zhou Academy, so impressive!” Liu Shuang'er blinked her eyes in a strange manner as she looked around in all directions.
”Cough cough, Shuang'er, stop making such a big fuss over nothing. Otherwise, we won't lose our identities!” Wu Hen's face was full of smiles as he pretended to speak in a serious tone.
”Hehe, Brother Wu Hen, the number of people at the first door on the left can be fewer!” Liu Shuang'er winked mischievously, then went over to Wu Hen's ear and whispered a long sound.
”Aiyo, what the heck are we waiting for? Hurry up and get on with it!” Wu Hen cried out in alarm and sprinted towards the first door on the left.
With a gust of wind, Wu Hen landed steadily at the back of the line. Just as he steadied himself, dozens of people rushed out behind Wu Hen. All of them followed behind him with expressions of unwillingness.
”Hehe, Brother Wu Hen, didn't you say not to make a fuss and to pay attention to our identities?” Liu Shuang'er swayed her graceful figure, leisurely walking from the distance to Wu Hen's side.
”Haha, Shuang'er, stop messing around. How could we possibly have any status!” Wu Hen pursed his lips into a smile and patted Liu Shuang'er's forehead lovingly.
”Hehe, then we'll wait for Brother Wu Hen to have some status. Let's swagger in from here!” Liu Shuang'er's face was serious as she looked at Wu Hen expectantly.
”Alright!” Staring at the cute Liu Shuang'er, Wu Hen could not help but feel warm in his heart. Ever since he had reincarnated, aside from Mrs Liu, the only other person who could make him experience the feelings of kinship with her was Liu Shuang'er!
”Eh, Brother Wu Hen, I think I saw brother Shi Lei!” To the side, Liu Shuang'er rubbed her eyes and pointed to the front of the last iron door on the right.
”Swish.” A burly figure entered and disappeared into the iron gate. Traceless Aftermaths vaguely felt that this figure was somewhat familiar, yet he didn't dare to call out to her completely.
”Heh heh, perhaps Shuang'er is seeing things!” Liu Shuang'er shook her head and said mischievously to Wu Hen.
”Shi Lei should be in Tranquil East City, why is he here? I can't even be sure of her figure. Maybe Shuang'er is really seeing things! ” Wu Hen was stunned as he turned his head to ponder over the matter. He sighed to himself as he looked at the hundreds of people in front of him.
The line ahead became shorter and shorter throughout the entire morning. Staring at the remaining dozen or so figures, Wu Hen finally saw the light of victory.
Hualala, hualala …
The sound of messy footsteps came from behind Wu Hen.
”Get out of the way, all of you!”
”Get out of the way, let our young master enter first!”
”Are you all blind? Scram to the side.”
Behind them, there was a great disturbance. Tens of servants who looked like servants were walking in lines, and behind them, there was a young man with a big mouth, leisurely walking forward.
”Little girl, quickly get out of the way.” Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless! ” One of the servants grinned obscenely and reached out with both hands to grab at Liu Shuang'er's chest.
Ah!” Liu Shuang'er cried out in alarm and slapped him. The palm that contained the early stage of the Innate Soul Shaking Realm landed solidly on the face of the servant.
”Plop!” With a dull thud, the attendant arced through the air and spurted out a mouthful of blood before collapsing heavily on the ground unconscious.
”Ma Liu?”
”Oh my, you even dare to hit a member of our Wang family?”
”Tsk tsk, this little girl, she looks like a chick at first glance. Young master will definitely like her.”
Seeing this, a group of servants revealed their arms and rolled up their sleeves, surrounding Liu Shuang'er. Behind him, the young nobleman, who was walking steadily, walked into the encirclement.
”Haha, Peugeot, Peugeot indeed!” The two eyes of the young nobleman swept over Liu Shuang'er. His gaze was extremely vulgar, and he did not conceal his greed at all.
