Xia Hai: I Already Flattered Him in Advance!

"They're out!"

Everyone's expressions were taken aback.

In an instant, all eyes turned to Xiang Li above the main courtyard.

At the location of the Xiang Clan, Xiang Ge abruptly stood up the moment Xiang Li appeared, a smile spreading across his face.

In this situation, at this moment, it speaks volumes without a word.

As for the people from other forces, looking at the scene in front of them, they all sighed with emotion:

"As expected, in the end, it was Xiang Li of the Xiang Clan who took the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor. In the end, nothing unexpected happened."

"Judging from the Xiang Clan chief's reaction, he is indeed quite restrained. If it were me, I would probably be much less composed."

"It seems this Law Contemplation Gathering is destined to become Xiang Li's stage. And then there's Shen Wenxi from the Academy. Xiang Li has already received the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor, so the marriage arrangement will probably be finalized with Xiang Li as well."

Amidst the general sentimentality, there were also some who observed much more closely.

Xiang Li did indeed appear.

But his expression seemed somewhat...

Something doesn't seem right?

Leaving aside the fact that receiving the inheritance should bring joy, Xiang Li's expression at this moment could hardly be described as calm.

Upon closer examination, it actually evokes a sense of anger and exasperation?

This discovery has stirred the interest of many powers.

"Could it be that something unexpected has happened?"

An idea flashed through my mind.

At this moment, Xiang Ge's voice rang out:

"Li'er, how is the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor?"

His voice was clear and resonant, echoing throughout the area, his joy undisguised.

Xiang Ge's voice seemed to pull Xiang Li back from her reverie.

However, this immediately made Xiang Li's expression even more awkward.

The main courtyard actually kicked him out!

The inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor almost belonged to him, but he ultimately failed to obtain it.

How is he supposed to answer that?

At this moment, all he wanted was for the person who stole his Saint Emperor's legacy to die!

Xiang Li did not respond, but observing the change in her expression, Xiang Ge's expression also changed slightly.

"Li'er, is it rare that you couldn't get it?"

Xiang Ge's heart sank slightly, and he sent a telepathic Xiang Li.

Xiang Li responded and said:

"Someone else got the inheritance just one step ahead of me!"

"How is that possible!" Xiang Ge's expression changed.

"You haven't used the Dao Comprehension Well Water?"

"I used it." Xiang Li suddenly seemed quite angry.

"But it never worked at all; this Dao Comprehension Well Water was just a gimmick, wasn't it?"

"Impossible!" Xiang Ge replied decisively.

However, there is no explanation for these things.

However, his focus was not on this.

At that moment, Xiang Ge asked:

"Who took away the legacy of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor?"

"I don't know his identity," Xiang Li replied, and then gave a brief description of Xiao Ye's features.

"It really was him!"

Xiang Ge's eyes narrowed suddenly.

It's the Academy's doing again!

A chill ran through Xiang Ge's eyes.

The Academy has repeatedly made things difficult for Li'er, truly showing no regard for the Xiang Clan!

At this moment, Xiang Li said:

I want him dead.

"Don't worry." Xiang Ge's gaze was cold as he glanced down at the main courtyard.

"Even if he really obtained the inheritance, the Academy might not be able to protect him!"

The Academy is no longer the Academy it once was.

Now that the Academy is unjust, why should the Xiang Clan preach righteousness?

While the two were communicating telepathically, the surroundings became much calmer.

Even a fool could sense something was wrong from Xiang Ge's reaction.

Not to mention the shrewd and experienced cultivators present.

For a moment, everyone was somewhat uncertain.

Could it be that something unexpected has really happened?

At this moment, a voice rang out from where Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was located:

"Dean Meng, what's the situation right now? Will the exclusive inheritor you mentioned appear before us?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Yu shook his head, then looked at Xiang Li and said:

"Before the sole inheritor decides to step forward, no one else can withdraw on their own; they can only be sent out by the main academy's restrictions."

While seemingly an irrelevant answer, it actually addressed exactly what everyone was concerned about.

Some quick-witted individuals immediately realized something and looked at Xiang Li:

"So, the reason for this is..."

Someone glanced in the direction of the Huang Clan.

The Huang Zhan has not yet emerged from it.

There are two possibilities for being sent out by the main courtyard's restrictions.

Or perhaps, the time available for further contemplation in the main courtyard has run out.

Or, it violates the limitations of the method of observation.

The former will only affect this instance, while the latter will completely disqualify them from entering unless the restriction is destroyed.

The fact that the Huang Zhan entered the main courtyard more slowly indicates that the speed of passing the second level of trials is slower, and the time spent in the main courtyard will also be shorter.

Before the Huang Zhan even began, Xiang Li emerged.

Based on its expression and reaction when it first appeared...

This immediately caused many people to secretly gasp in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Li not only failed to obtain the Saint Emperor's inheritance, but also lost the opportunity to enter!

This is really...

For a moment, the atmosphere on the field became somewhat strange.

This so-called prodigy of the Xiang Clan, who was said to be able to dominate an entire generation, upon closer reflection, seems to have shown no particularly strong momentum from the very beginning of this Law Contemplation Gathering.

He failed to secure the first qualification to enter the main academy, and he also failed to obtain the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor as he had claimed.

"So, the first person to enter the main hall wasn't just a fraud."

Someone muttered to themselves, gazing at the main courtyard, and murmured softly:

Could it be him?

Xia Hai's expression changed repeatedly as he stood among the crowd.

He'd already prepared all the flattery, but now something's gone wrong?!

Although life is unpredictable, you shouldn't be so reckless with yourself!

While everyone was stunned and lost in thought, figures appeared deep within the Academy, all with aged expressions yet possessing extremely strong auras.

Groups of people arrived near the main courtyard.

At the same time, someone glanced at Xiang Li, then gently waved their hand, using their strength to lift Xiang Li and move her aside.

Subsequently, each figure chose to sit cross-legged in one direction, taking their place to oversee the situation.

Such a grand scene immediately shocked everyone present.

The attention that had been on Xiang Li shifted away, and they stopped paying attention to her.

It was just a minor incident; how can it be compared to the main business?

At this moment, the light around the main building suddenly dimmed.

"Knock knock knock!"

Suddenly, the sound of bells rang out from the main courtyard.

The sound of bells possesses a unique power, vibrating the spirit while soothing the heart, bringing clarity and peace.

Countless eyes were fixed on the location of the main courtyard.

The one who truly inherits the legacy is about to emerge!

At that moment, a sound came from the main gate of the courtyard.

The gate slowly opened.

A young figure slowly emerged from among them, appearing in everyone's sight.

Dressed in a long robe, exuding a scholarly air, with a calm expression, seemingly unmoved by worldly gains or losses, he composedly faced the attention of the crowd and walked out step by step.
