Sacred Martial Divine Sovereign

After leaving the courtyard of the dean, Ao Lingchen immediately went into seclusion and stepped onto the ninth floor, allowing the storm to ferment at will.    

Although Ao Lingchen had disappeared, his legend had spread throughout the entire Twilight City. It had become the only topic of discussion among the storytellers, snatching the top martial skills of the strong. Observing the fortune of the secret realm and reaching the ninth floor of the Heavenly Martial Ladder had made him an influential figure in the Twilight City. He was the idol of the new generation.    

Ao Lingchen didn't have the mood to care about the commotion in the outside world. His first priority was to enter secluded cultivation to digest the information in his mind, and then prepare for the upcoming competition.    

As the competition approached, as long as one paid attention to the spots, they would all choose to go into seclusion.    

The entire Tianwu Academy was immersed in the atmosphere of enthusiasm.    

Time passed quickly, like a white horse crossing a gap. Days passed by. Today, the entire Tianwu Academy was in full swing. All the warriors were talking and laughing as they gathered in the square.    

The morning sun had risen. There were already hundreds of people in the square of Tianwu Academy, and there were also a large number of people rushing to the square.    

Today was the day of the Tianwu Academy's selection to go to the Imperial Capital, and it was also the competition that everyone was talking about. Whether it was those who were confident in their own strength or those who just came to watch the show, the morning of the Great Qing rushed over like a crowd.    

"I never thought that after I went into seclusion, Big Brother Ao would do such a sensational thing. It really makes people happy. However, it's normal for such a thing to happen to me, Big Brother Ao."    

Listening to Senior Min Yunfei's words beside her, Xia Jingxue's face revealed a trace of complacency. It was as if the person who created the legend was herself. She was pleased with herself and even tried to put on a very ordinary appearance.    

Xia Jingxue's actions also made Min Yunfei who was beside her laugh. This little girl. Who would not be able to see through her little thoughts but her heart was also very emotional. Min Yunfei never would have thought that the talent of the young man she met in the secret realm was so shocking. In such a short period of time, his cultivation was already inferior to hers. He had become superior and had even created miracles time and time again.    

The figure of the handsome and hearty young man appeared in her mind. A red flush appeared on Min Yunfei's face and it was as hot as a fever. What was she thinking about? This was the man Xia Jingxue liked. She could not let her imagination run wild.    

Min Yunfei tried to remove the figure of the young man in her mind but it still existed. It was like the root of a big tree, firmly rooted in her mind. She found that she seemed to have fallen in love with Ao Lingchen.    

"Sister Fei, what's wrong? Why is your face so red? Also, why is your forehead so hot?"    

A cold hand reached over and placed on Min Yunfei's forehead. Xia Jingxue's face was full of doubt. Why did she suddenly change her appearance? Could it be that she had a fever?    

Xia Jingxue was usually very smart, but when she talked about Ao Lingchen, she was slightly infatuated and could not think straight. The main reason was that she did not guess in that direction.    

Min Yunfei's ears were red and she tilted her head to the side and said embarrassingly, "It's fine. Maybe the weather is too hot."    

Thinking about the man her good friend liked and almost being discovered, Min Yunfei wished she could bury her face in the ground and not have the face to see anyone.    

"Is the weather very hot?" Xia Jingxue muttered to herself. The surrounding breeze lightly caressed and the sun had just risen. It felt cool and moist.    

However, Xia Jingxue was not someone who liked to be entangled in one matter. Now her mind was on Ao Lingchen. Her pair of intelligent eyes scanned the surroundings, wanting to find the figure of the person she loved.    

There was a sea of people. Almost everyone had seen it once. In the end, Xia Jingxue could only feel a sense of loss.    

"Let's wait for a while. Maybe he has something to delay. He will not miss out on such a big matter. It will definitely appear."    

Looking at the slightly disappointed look in Xia Jingxue's eyes, Min Yunfei softly consoled her. She felt a little envious in her heart. She also wanted to feel disappointed for Ao Lingchen like this. But she knew what she should do and what choice she should make. Some adoration could only be hidden in the bottom of her heart.    

"Un!" Xia Jingxue nodded with a disappointed expression. After a moment, she also threw the unhappiness in her heart to the back of her mind and chatted with her good friend Min Yunfei about all kinds of interesting things.    

At this moment, in a distant place, in an academy of the same standard as the Tianwu Academy, a young girl as beautiful as a flower, who was like a fairy, forcefully knocked away the opponent in front of her and walked down the martial stage amidst the cheers.    

"Ao Lingchen, we will meet again in the Imperial City!"    

The cheers behind her didn't make the young girl feel any joy. Her thoughts had already traveled through time and space and arrived in the distant Imperial City.    

The heated martial arts competition existed all over the various academies. Everyone seemed to be working hard for the qualification to go to the Imperial City.    

"So much time has passed?" A dull sound suddenly rang out in an empty room. In the entire room, there was only a bed. There was a chair, a table, and nothing else. There was not even a shadow of a person.    

If there were ordinary people here, they would think that they had bumped into a ghost.    

"A few days passed unknowingly. I wonder if everyone is waiting in the square for the grand competition to begin."    

A strange sound rang out. In this empty room where ghosts could not be seen, a strange atmosphere was constantly revealed.    

"Go!"    

The sound of the long robe flapping in the wind was heard. A black shadow descended from the sky and landed in the middle of the room.    

The person who appeared in the middle of the room was Ao Lingchen, who had gone into seclusion after leaving the courtyard of the dean. However, he did not take an ordinary path in this seclusion. He did not choose to sit quietly on the bed and enter seclusion. Instead, he chose to sit on the roof beam.    

Ao Lingchen's choice naturally had his considerations. During this period of time, he had been in the limelight. Not only had he offended a large number of enemies, but he had also become a moving treasure vault in the eyes of others because of the various treasures he possessed. Who knew if he would attract the attention of others, even if this was the Tianwu Academy. It was inevitable that some people would take the risk to deal with him.    

In order to live a safer life, Ao Lingchen would hide in the Tianwu Academy even if he was in secluded cultivation.    

During this period of seclusion, Ao Lingchen felt that it was alright. No one was plotting against him. No one came to disturb him either. It seemed like he was the fat sheep in everyone's eyes. It wasn't to the extent where he would attract others to take the risk and hide in the Tianwu Academy!    

"Let's go to the square and take a look."    

Ao Lingchen knew that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity. He must not miss it. He took a light step and left the room quickly.    

He had been forced by more than sixty families not long ago, and Ao Lingchen was still sighing about missing this opportunity. In order to participate in the selection of the Essence Sword Sect, he had made the best decision to go to the Imperial Capital. He had never thought that he would have a turnaround after fighting with so many rogue cultivators for the more difficult quota. Now that he was safe and sound in the Tianwu Academy, he would also have the chance to participate in the selection of the school.    

Even though Ao Lingchen hadn't gone to the Imperial City, he hadn't seen the competition for the few spots. He could imagine the difficulty of fighting for a spot there. Thousands of young geniuses who didn't have the qualification to participate in the competition had gathered in the city. It was the true arena that was going crazy over those few spots.    

Ao Lingchen naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to choose the most difficult path if there was a more convenient way.    

After Ao Lingchen quickly left the room, an old man on a nearby roof smiled and said, "Looks like I don't need to guard him for the time being. However, his path won't be easy in the future."    

If Ao Lingchen saw this elder, he would be incomparably shocked, because he was a familiar elder of Martial Skill Pavilion. The reason why he had been in seclusion for so many days was because he hadn't encountered any interference. It was all because of this old man. Those who tried to attack him were all killed by him.
