Chapter 157 Estrangement
Unlike Ling Feng, what each of them thought in their hearts was different, when they came out, there were no flowers scattered on the ground, and there was no thunderous applause, there was just a quiet small room and a door that could not be opened. "What does this mean? Could it be that we didn't come out?" Ma III patted the small door that was tightly sealed, this door looked very fragile and all wooden, but no matter how hard Ma III tried, it still did not move.
Just when Ling Feng and the others were struggling with how to get out of the small room, in a large hall of the Imperial Academy, nearly a hundred mentors gathered together, and in the middle of the main hall was a giant crystal ball, on which a picture was displayed, the man in the picture was in black armor and black armor, with a handsome and extraordinary face, and a long iron spear in his hand.
"I think in this monthly exam, only Li Kang's group can pass it. A gray-haired old man sat on the highest main seat in the main hall, stroked his beard and said, "The master is wise, and the second prince is indeed good. The nearest mentor immediately chimed in, "Not necessarily. Wu Yong, who was sitting not far away, had a calm face, but his faint tone was directly stabbed at the first master seat of the Divine Apocalypse Heavenly Mansion, that is, the seat of all the mentors, and the person in charge of the entire Divine Apocalypse Heavenly Mansion.
"I remember that the number of fighters in Wu's master class is the smallest, is it possible that the people in your class will win first?" Sitting at the head of Wu Yong was a middle-aged man in his forties, with high cheekbones, a straight nose, and a pair of eagle-like eyes full of ridicule, this person was the tutor of the first class of the second prince, Li Wanshan.
Wu Yong pursed his lips slightly, but he stretched his hand into his sleeve, then closed his eyes, the white-bearded old man sitting on the main seat smiled silently, and paused for a moment before looking at the crystal ball and said: "This is already the sixth layer, there should be no suspense." As soon as he finished saying this, a smug smile immediately appeared on Li Wanshan's face, and he glanced at Wu Yong beside him slightly, ready to taunt him, but at this glance, he found that there was a hint of a smile on Wu Yong's face.
"Teacher, someone broke through the small labyrinth of Penglai. It was when the second prince in the picture was ready for the final blow, a black-clothed academy attendant ran in in a panic, and the hall was very quiet, except for the previous conversation, there was no whispering sound, so it sounded that the trill message was extremely clear to the ears of each tutor.
"This can't be~!" Without waiting for the white-haired master to react, Li Wanshan first shouted loudly, Wu slowly overflowed with a smile on his face, and his face full of wrinkles was like a sunflower blooming in spring, "Master Li, don't be impatient." The white-haired master's tone was slightly cold, and Li Wanshan realized his gaffe at this time, and when he looked at the crystal ball, the second prince had successfully broken through the sixth layer and moved towards the seventh layer, and as of now, among the students of the entire Divine Enlightenment Heavenly Mansion, there are only a handful of people who can break through the second layer.
"Tell me, which class of students broke through the little maze?" The white-haired master looked at the black-clothed attendant, cleared his throat, and the attendant lowered his head and returned: "It's the Ling Feng group in Master Wu's class, and now they are in the return room." "Master Wu?" How is this possible..." Suddenly, a low voice of discussion spread, and no matter how many rules there are, they can't bear it at this time, because no one expected that this monthly exam would be the weakest class B in the Divine Enlightenment Heavenly Mansion.
"It seems that there are a lot of hidden dragons and crouching tigers among our students, well, these children are good, call them here, and I will see them for myself." The white-haired master showed a kind smile, and said with a chuckle, although the tutors looked at each other, they all nodded frequently, as if they also recognized, in the entire hall, the most ugly face was Li Wanshan, he was bound to win this monthly exam, in order to build momentum for the second prince and establish the prestige of the second prince in the academy, but unexpectedly, a dark horse suddenly came out, breaking the whole plan.
"Master Wu, congratulations. Now that the person who broke through the labyrinth has been born, there is no need for the mentors to continue to watch here, and a few mentors who are familiar with Wu Yong have come over to congratulate, and the smiling faces are like slaps on Li Wanshan's face one after another, "Master Li, I'll go first." Wu stood up with a smile, turned sideways and made a gesture, then turned around and left, leaving Li Wanshan, who looked embarrassed, in the main hall.
In the blink of an eye, there was not a single person left in the hall full of people, only Li Wanshan sat on the chair alone, looking at the crystal ball with a gloomy face.
"If Old Man Wu appears in front of me now, I will definitely strangle him~!" Ma San swore again, they had been trapped in this small house for more than half an hour, there was no prompt, no movement, the wooden door did not move at all like the gate of the heavenly realm, even Ling Feng was a little anxious at this time.
"The door is open~!" Situ Qingyang, who had been staring at the wooden door, shouted happily, and the others who were facing the wooden door turned around one after another, only to see a glimmer of light through, the wooden door that could not be opened, was slowly pushed open, and in the light stronger than the house, a dry and thin old man walked in with a smile on his face.
"Sir. "It's none other than Wu Yong, Ma San rubbed his eyes, and after seeing clearly that it was really Wu Yong, he stepped forward with an arrow, and was about to choke Wu Yong's neck without saying a word, Ling Feng hurriedly flashed and blocked Ma Sanshi, "Hey, what is this classmate doing?" Wu asked with a surprised face, Ma San looked indignant, and he was about to scold when he opened his mouth, but he was gagged by Ling Feng in time, "He's fine, he's too excited." Ling Feng smiled lightly.
"Oh, it's okay. Wu Yong nodded, then carefully looked at Ling Feng's five people, and paused for a few seconds before saying, "You are the first to pass this monthly exam, and the master wants to see you in person." "Master?" Ling Feng was slightly surprised, it was said that the first master of the Divine Apocalypse Heavenly Mansion was a big figure in the Imperial Academy, it seemed that even the dean of the academy would call him a teacher, but this seat was too mysterious, until now, Ling Feng had only heard of it, and had never seen it.
The white-haired master's reception was much more comfortable than Ling Feng had imagined, this big man was like an ordinary old man, amiable, called the five of them over to chat, and then handed Ling Feng a key, so that the meeting was over.
Out of the main hall of the master's seat, Ling Feng and the five of them were still in a daze, the key in their hands was mediocre, but it represented a magical place, "Academy Treasure Pavilion, we won't hear it, right?" Li Yao frowned, obviously not recovering from the horror.
"You heard it right, this is indeed the key to the Treasure Chamber. The corridor outside the hall was empty, Ling Feng and the others looked nervous, and they saw a woman leisurely appearing behind the pillar in front of them, with a white plain skirt and a beautiful face.
This woman is not a bystander, it is Gu Yue who was killed by the wolf who almost took her life, seeing Gu Yue again, everyone's hearts are more or less embarrassed, after all, what happened on the third layer is a little unpleasant, the wolf snorted coldly, but he didn't look at her again, but turned his head away.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to settle accounts with you. Gu Yue's face was as usual, she couldn't see the slightest bit of anger, she looked at Ling Feng slowly, and Gu Yue continued: "The Academy Treasure Pavilion is under my control, you can only use this key once, when to go I want to get an accurate time." ”
"It turns out that the teacher is here for this. Ling Feng also showed a hint of a smile, and looked at the few people beside him: "We are exhausted, we are afraid that we will not be able to go today, if there are no accidents, we will go over tomorrow afternoon." "Oh, well, then it's best to keep the key, if you lose it, even if you come, I won't let you in." Gu Yue floated away, leaving behind a white back, "Why don't I think it's so simple, will she stumble us in the Treasure Pavilion?" asked Ma III with a frown.
The Treasure Pavilion of the Academy is the most magical place of the Imperial Academy in addition to the Hidden Scripture Building, which has a lot of rare treasures, including lost fighting skills, superb elixirs, extraordinary weapons and armor, and every student who can enter the Treasure Pavilion can get one or two treasures here, so since the establishment of the Imperial Academy, the Treasure Pavilion has been the highest level of reward in the Academy, and it is also a place that all students yearn to enter.
"I think this monthly exam is a bit strange. Situ Qingyang looked back at the main hall, and then said: "According to what Mr. said, we have a monthly exam every month, which should be considered a very common thing, if you can enter the Treasure Pavilion if you pass successfully, then the treasures in this Treasure Pavilion will be emptied in a short time, right?"
"That's right. Li Yao pinched her chin and thought for a moment, "Let's go, go back and rest first, it doesn't matter if there's anything wrong, we're just students." Ling Feng waved his hand and casually put the key into his arms.
Out of the periphery of the main hall, everyone separated, Situ Qingyang and Ma III went back to their home, but Li Yao still followed Ling Feng back to Piaoyeju.
Sitting in the carriage back, Ling Feng kept looking at Li Yao, Li Yao didn't care at first, but for a long time, Ling Feng was looked at like this, even Her Royal Highness the princess couldn't stand it, "I said, why do you keep staring at me?" Li Yao asked with some dissatisfaction, Ling Feng smiled slightly, twisted his neck and said, "I wonder if Her Royal Highness the princess should go home?"
"Go home, am I just going home?" Li Yao pretended not to know, pretending to be ignorant, Ling Feng smiled, but his tone was a lot tougher, "If Your Highness doesn't go back, I'm afraid that I will be restless there." "Are you rushing to the palace?" Li Yao's expression turned cold suddenly, and he also looked at Ling Feng tightly, if his gaze could be turned into a sword, he was afraid that at this time, he was already a sword and sword shadow.
"Your Highness thinks so. Ling Feng did not flinch because of Li Yao's words, but nodded, Li Yao was speechless for a moment, and was silent for a few seconds before returning in a low voice: "Okay, this palace is gone." ”
