The weather was fine and sunny Training Ground.
Principal Fengyun, still in relatively good health, handed the match schedule to the teacher in charge, then returned to the viewing High Platform and tentatively asked the wooden chair in front of him:
"Principal Zuo, do you think General Ye will come?"
Although he had asked the other party to send a message on his behalf, the Land Immortal deity was extremely busy and usually rarely seen.
Compared to such mythical figures, it's hard to say whether a mere ant-like martial infant like him, with one foot already in the grave, will even get a chance to meet them.
Since Ye Li became famous throughout the Blue Star, the status of Fengyun University has also risen accordingly.
Among those who came to observe the New Student Competition today, there were many powerful figures from various Martial Infant Realm, all eagerly anticipating witnessing the demeanor of these Land Immortal.
On the wooden chair.
Dressed in plain clothes, Zuo Qingyu held a thick newspaper, her cold eyes occasionally flashing with a hint of horror.
Hearing the old man's words, she came back to her senses and said calmly:
"How would I know?"
As she spoke, a pang of bitterness welled up in Zuo Qingyu's heart, and her delicate hands slowly clenched. "I told you long ago, I also have no way to contact him."
His eyes and brows betrayed a clear sense of resentment.
Despite being a renowned martial arts prodigy in the entire province, he couldn't even catch a glimpse of his opponent.
Just last month, the two were still in a mentor-student and friend-like relationship.
Time has passed, and now even the opportunity for her to break through to the Martial Infant Realm Peak was due to the other party helping her repair her damaged foundation out of consideration for their past friendship, and also bestowing upon her a large amount of demigod blood far exceeding that of top-grade Treasure Medicine.
The difference in their social status was too great.
Zuo Qingyu had used top-grade Treasure Medicine before, but compared to the powerful vitality contained in that blood, the medicinal power contained in those top-grade Treasure Medicine she had taken before was simply a joke.
Her innate pride was completely dispelled in front of Ye Li.
It's dazzling.
At this moment, Ye Li's brilliance was simply too dazzling for Zuo Qingyu.
"..."
Principal Fengyun clicked his tongue, wisely refraining from further comment.
His gaze returned to the bustling Training Ground below.
He smiled bitterly to himself. Anyone with eyes could see that the legendary General Ye possessed Martial Dao talent unparalleled throughout history. As time went by and his influence grew, he would eventually enjoy immense fame on Blue Star and achieve unprecedented influence.
Instead of trying to curry favor at this point, they stubbornly refuse to contact us.
Principal Zuo, this is hardly a typical interpersonal relationship!
This is an incredible opportunity that hundreds of millions of people can only dream of!
"Well..."
The robust old man sighed silently.
He did want to curry favor with, and now all the countless forces and billions of martial artists on the entire Blue Star were dreaming of attaching themselves to General Ye.
Unfortunately, I had no connections.
One can only choose to Chang Le.
Moreover, although he couldn't contact the True Body, the benefits he received already surpassed all the gains he had made in the first half of his life.
Within Fengyun University, the youngest Land Immortal in the history of Blue Star was born.
This short sentence alone possesses unimaginable power.
The other Martial Arts University presidents all had eyes so red they were almost bleeding.
Thinking of this, Principal Fengyun couldn't help but laugh.
For centuries I have worked diligently and conscientiously, never committing a single heinous act. This is what I deserve...
"That felt so good!"
The old man stroked his beard and smiled faintly as he slowly walked to the edge of the High Platform.
At that moment, a clear broadcast suddenly rang out from Training Ground:
"I declare—"
"The Fengyun University New Student Competition is now beginning!"
The Secret Realm for Martial Exam vary from province to province.
Unless someone kills several more people than others, it's difficult to determine the specific differences in strength among the top young martial artists in each province.
Therefore, Fengyun University holds a [New Student Competition] every year in order to identify the true outstanding individuals among the freshmen.
In addition, allowing freshmen to get to know each other is also a very important purpose of the [New Student Competition].
Because they didn't know if Ye Li would come, the organizers of Fengyun University, after careful consideration, still placed him in the battle pool.
If Ye Li doesn't come, then the student who drew the draw will be considered to have had a bye.
If they come... then there will be no more.
As the announcement of the start of the competition faded, the atmosphere in the Training Ground rose accordingly.
"Really?!"
"Of course it's true! General Ye is also a freshman at our school this year!"
"Nonsense! Are you crazy or am I?"
"..."
Even from the High Platform, one could faintly hear the excited discussions of the new students.
Even with numerous pieces of evidence, many people still find it hard to believe the so-called facts.
After all, linking the words "newborn" and "Land Immortal" together is so absurd it seems unreal.
In the crowd.
A cool-looking girl dressed as a freshman listened to the surrounding discussion, a blank expression appearing on her pretty face.
Observe his appearance.
It was Jiang Qingzhu, the eldest daughter of the Northern Extreme Jiang Family, who stole her School Team's martial Cultivation Method and gave it to Ye Li.
He is a young genius from Linhai City.
In order to catch up with the Boy in Black as soon as possible, she returned directly to her family home after the Martial Exam and then gritted her teeth and entered the Inheritance Secret Realm passed down through generations of her family to cultivate in seclusion.
A month and a half passed in the blink of an eye.
Half a month ago, Jiang Qingzhu emerged from seclusion in her family's secret place, but due to numerous trivial matters within her family, she was unable to attend the freshman ceremony at Fengyun University two weeks prior.
I finally arrived here this morning, travel-worn and exhausted.
Having just finished resting and preparing to participate in the competition, I never expected to hear the people around me repeatedly mentioning Ye Li's name.
His words were filled with reverence, and the stories he recounted were almost comparable to the myths and legends Jiang Qingzhu had read in her childhood.
The divine energy of the Divine Mansion soared ten thousand feet into the sky, its brilliance surpassing all others upon entering the capital!
His rampage at the Hengshan Treasure Pavilion shook the Jiangnan Province!
A young man becomes a judge!
The Divine Ability supernatural powers to summon wind and rain, surrounded and killed Muchun Hall of Hanhai Province!
Destroy the Three Mountains, annihilate the Six Sects!
With unparalleled prowess, he forcefully broke through to the level of Land Immortal!
He traveled to the Golden Moon Country, killed the leader of the Divine Dao Sect, and personally slew the powerful contemporary pope of the Federation Temple!
Descending upon the Heaven and Earth Pass, he unleashed a torrent of Gale Force with a wave of his hand, annihilating the three Eighth-Tier Beast Kings that had plagued Huaxia for over a century!
"What... what's going on...?"
Hearing these words, Jiang Qingzhu was shaken, but her eyes were unusually blank.
These events, one after another, were all major events that were rare to see in the history of Huaxia.
How could they spring up like mushrooms after rain?
She even felt as if she hadn't been cut off from the world for two months, but rather for thousands of years.
It truly felt like an absurd, otherworldly experience.
She tentatively struck up a conversation with her classmates who were chatting enthusiastically beside her. "What mythological figure is this General Ye you're talking about?"
But all of them looked somewhat surprised.
One person couldn't contain himself and asked incredulously, "Classmate, you don't know General Ye Li of Huaxia?"
"It's that newly born Land Immortal!" a young girl added, her eyes shining.
"..."
Jiang Qingzhu really wanted to say that she did know a young martial artist named Ye Li, but he was not nearly as outrageous as they described, and they were still good friends.
But the words were on the tip of his tongue, before he could even utter them.
The crowd suddenly stirred, with countless young martial artists showing excitement.
"Look there! General Ye has really arrived!"
Jiang Qingzhu subconsciously followed their trembling fingertips.
Really--
Amidst the attention of everyone, a handsome Boy in Black walked in. His clear, dark eyes were calm, and his long robe swayed slightly in the wind, making his figure appear exceptionally upright.
"Ye Li..."
Looking at that familiar yet unfamiliar figure.
Jiang Qingzhu's body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but feel somewhat dazed.
She felt that the aura emanating from the Boy in Black was terrifying beyond measure, more majestic than mountains and more vast than the sea, like a true Land Immortal, exuding an ancient and dignified composure!
It's true, those things are all true!
The crazy idea subconsciously popped into her mind.
Almost simultaneously.
Out of the corner of her eye, Jiang Qingzhu saw the famous vice principal in blue robes on the High Platform hurriedly stand up, his cold eyes shining brightly as he stared straight at the Boy in Black in front of the passage.
The next moment.
Jiang Qingzhu heard thunderous cheers, and the entire Training Ground suddenly erupted in a frenzy, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down!
