"Invitation?" Yang Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Although Dao Yi had explained to him the stakes, after improving his soul power, Yang Xiao had an intuition that was incomparable to ordinary people.

This intuition makes him always have a kind of foreknowledge of things that have not yet come.

This kind of prediction may not be as accurate as the unpredictable prophet who spied on the heavens, but it has to be said that it has a certain degree of accuracy.

Therefore, at this moment, he always faintly felt that the invitation of the Jun family seemed to be uneasy and kind.

However, it was impossible for him not to go to the Peerless Sea Secret Realm, so he didn't take this feeling too seriously, and followed Dao Yi to the palace of the Heavenly Machine Courtyard Master.

"Meet the Master of the Heavenly Machine Academy!" Coming to the palace, Yang Xiao respectfully hugged his fist towards the Lord of the Heavenly Machine Academy.

"Haha, no courtesy, no courtesy!" The expression of the master of the Heavenly Machine Academy was very gentle, just like when Yang Xiao saw him outside the Holy Forest, "I really didn't expect that you have grown to such a point now, it makes the old man feel ashamed!"

"The head of the academy is serious!" Yang Xiao was a little embarrassed to be praised in front of him, and then changed his words and said, "Speaking of which, because of me, I attracted the Xue family before, which caused a lot of damage to the academy. But I wonder what the situation is now?"

The impact of Xue Qianshan's previous troubles on the academy, although it can't be said to be devastating, is definitely catastrophic.

According to later statistics, more than half of the buildings of various sizes collapsed. One hundred and twenty-five students and staff were killed and two hundred and thirty-four were seriously injured. The rest of the minor injuries are difficult to count.

In this regard, Yang Xiao has always felt guilty, and always feels that this matter has something to do with him.

However, now he has a three-year covenant in his heart, so he did not participate in the aftermath work, but just donated a large number of various pills and resources seized from the previous experience.

Now, seeing the master of the Heavenly Machine Academy, he naturally wants to inquire about the current situation.

"In the end, all the wounded, no matter how serious they are, can be regarded as having their lives saved! As for cultivation, ninety percent of them will not be affected. The rest, even if it is affected, will not damage the foundation, and at most it will be cured by lying in bed for a few more days. The Heavenly Machine Courtyard Master smiled.

"That's good!" Yang Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Speaking of which, this is thanks to the elixir you sent! If you only rely on the academy's reserves, I'm afraid it's far from enough!" said the master of the Heavenly Machine Academy.

"Why say thank you, this is all within Yang Xiao's business, and it should be!" Yang Xiao clenched his fists and arched his hands.

Then, he turned to the topic and said, "Master of the Academy, I heard from the master that the Jun family sent an invitation?"

"That's right!" the Heavenly Machine Courtyard Master nodded, "Every time before the opening of the Peerless Sea Secret Realm, the Jun family will send an invitation letter to each dynasty under its command.

"It's just that in the past, our Northern Plains Dynasty was weak, and it was almost at the bottom of the Shengming Dynasty, so the number of places that could be allocated to us was pitiful. Sometimes, we are simply ignored by the Jun family. But this year is different, because of you, the Jun family directly gave us five places!"

"Heh, it's a lot!" Yang Xiao smiled.

On the way here, Daoyi mentioned to him about this quota.

Generally speaking, even the Iron Eagle Dynasty and the Blood Moon Dynasty used to be able to allocate a maximum of seven or eight places. So, getting five places is not a small amount.

"Yes, although there are more places, but for us, or rather, for you, it has become more difficult!"

"Oh, why do you say that?" asked Yang Xiao.

"Under the Shengming Dynasty, there were eighteen dynasties. There are also a dozen or so forces that are equal to the strength of the dynasty, such as the Heavenly Sword Sect you met before. Roughly calculated, there are about thirty major forces. And according to past experience, each time the martial arts cultivators involved in it will reach two or three hundred. But in the end, there are only about fifteen people who can qualify to go to the Xuanwu Empire. ”

"Ah, so little!" Yang Xiao was shocked when he heard this.

"Yes!" the Heavenly Machine Academy Master nodded, "You must know that these two or three hundred people were originally the top geniuses of the Shengming Dynasty, and if you want to choose one of them out of ten or even twenty, how cruel the competition is."

"It seems that there are too many places in our Martial Saint Academy, but those students who go to participate in the assessment will definitely become the target of attacks by other forces.

"It can be said that if you are the only one who goes alone, it will not be so difficult. After all, your strength and fame are there, and no one else may dare to provoke you.

"However, if you are asked to take four more classmates, I'm afraid you will have to be distracted. In this way, it is very likely that people will take advantage of it. That's why I said that a large number of people is not necessarily a good thing, and the difficulty is not necessarily small. On the contrary, it will be more challenging for you!"

"Indeed!" Yang Xiao heard this, and his eyes were also condensed.

I knew that the Jun family was uneasy and kind, but now it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

They know that they value love and justice, and if their classmates and friends are in trouble, they will definitely not sit idly by.

So, they took advantage of their growing fame to increase the number of places in the Martial Saint Academy. This seems to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the other disciples of the academy, but in fact, it is calculating himself.

It's like a duel between two warriors, one of whom is ordered to take a group of children. Although it seems that the number of people has become an advantage, it has actually become a great disadvantage.

Moreover, the most vicious thing about the Jun family's approach is that even if Yang Xiao sees through their intentions, he is helpless.

After all, the Peerless Sea Secret Realm was a great opportunity for any martial cultivator. You can't stop others from longing for opportunity.

For Wu Xiu, it is naturally best to go to the land of chance.

But even if you can't go, being able to participate in the selection is also an experience and improvement for yourself.

If you really prevent them from going, even if you are well-intentioned, you will eventually be misunderstood, saying that you Yang Xiao is arrogant and boundless, with no one in your eyes, and disdainful of your classmates to advance and retreat together.

"What a good calculation!" Yang Xiao's eyes were extremely cold.

However, he is not a person who is afraid of things, since you dare to do this, then I, Yang Xiao, will definitely show my strength.

If you dare to attack the people around me, I, Yang Xiao, will definitely make you pay the price of blood!

"Master of the Academy, please rest assured, Yang Xiao will definitely do his best to protect the other four classmates at that time!"

"Well, I'm relieved to have your words!" the Heavenly Machine Academy Master smiled gently, "Okay Yang Xiao, you can go back and rest first! Three days later, I will arrange a selection in the academy." It stands to reason that with your current strength, no one can compare, but you still have to go through the motions!"

"Don't worry, courtyard master!" Yang Xiao clenched his fists, "I will definitely participate on time when the time comes!"

After that, he chatted with Dao Yi and the master of the Heavenly Machine Academy for a few more words and left.
