Chapter 381: 381
"I am better than you," Si Xingkong said afterwards . "I have practiced with 2400 drops of Vital Essence and greatly increased the speed of our practice with the Dragon's Blood . By my calculations, I can reach the Advanced Stage of the Heaven Realm before the year is out . "
Chang Qiqi also nodded his head . Without the Dragon's Blood, it would have taken him three or five years to reach his current Cultivation Realm .
Because of this, he owed thanks to Zhang Ruochen .
If Zhang Ruochen had not brought them to the Underwater Dragon Palace, it would have been impossible for them to gain the Dragon's Blood, and even more impossible for them to attend the exam at Saint Academy .
Thanks to his Dragon's Blood, he had gained the long-cherished opportunity to become a Saint of the Saint Academy .
Everybody was talking and laughing; only Duanmu Xingling remained silent . She seemed to be upset about something .
Zhang Ruochen cast a glance towards Duanmu Xingling and noticed her difference in mood . "Senior sister apprentice Duanmu," he said, "what are you thinking?"
Duanmu Xingling was startled by Zhang Ruochen's words . "It's nothing," she hastily said . "I'm just very happy to see senior sister disciple Luo and Sister Chen again . "
"Indeed! Luo Shuihan, Huang Yanchen and Chen Xier will be attending the exam here in Saint Academy to attend the exam," Chang Qiqi said with excitement . "We'll finally be able to reunite!"
Following after Lei Jing, Zhang Ruochen, Si Xingkong, Chang Qiqi and Duanmu Xingling rushed to the Saint Academy .
Crowds of people had gathered outside the Saint Academy all of them internal students of the School of the Martial Market . Their numbers could not be counted at a glance .
Some of them had been waiting here since last night .
Some of the prestigious students rode in on elegant carriages drawn by savage beasts, directly entering the gate of the Saint Academy without needing to queue up . This roused the envy of the other students .
"That's Xu Qing, the God-favored son of the Saint Xu Gentry . "
"There goes a Half-Saint from the Saint Xu Gentry; he's a lecturer at the Saint Academy . "
"No wonder Xu Qing doesn't have to queue up; he can directly enter the Saint Academy to attend the first round of the exam . "
. . .
While others were talking, Zhang Ruochen glanced towards the carriage . He saw a young man in a white embroidered robe sitting in the carriage, a fellow with sharp eyes and a dignified air .
Four brute elephants in golden armour pulled the carriage along, marching forward at a slow, seemingly momentous pace .
Behind the carriage came 36 young warriors, men and women who had all cultivated to the Heaven Realm .
Each of them was brimming with spirit and had Spiritual Blood filled with vigor . Spiritual Qi circulated through 100,000 of the pores in their bodies . They were obviously not common warriors .
36 of these young warriors were also outstanding talents cultivated by the Saint Xu Gentry, sent to attend the Saint Academy's examination along with Xu Qing .
"These Saint families are definitively powerful if they can actually cultivate this many Young Geniuses," Si Xingkong said in a shocked tone . "If this current generation of Saint Xu Gentry students are so outstanding, how terrible will they be dozens of generations from now?"
Lei Jing said, "That is the intrinsic, insurmountable difference between powerful Saint families and other clans . Who knows how many powerful Saint families there are in the entire Eastern Region?"
The appearance of dozens of genius Saint Xu Gentry students outside the Saint Academy truly caused quite a stir . Everyone was talking about it, some with whispers of awe, others with hisses of envy .
The genius students from the South Cloud Commandery stood among the crowd and stared at the Saint Xu Gentry carriages .
Xue Yingrou looked at Xu Qing as he sat in the carriage, a strange look visible in her beautiful eyes . There was no doubt in her mind: only someone like Xu Qing, the God-favored son of a powerful Saint family, would be a match for her .
If she could become a woman like Xu Qing, someday she could stand in that very spot .
In that moment, a sound like a tsunami came from the crowd .
"The God-favored son of the East Region Saint Mansion is here!"
