Chapter 68: Shengwu Academy
Except for the people from Southeast County, the rest of the people present couldn't help but look at each other, obviously shocked by Lin Shengsheng's strength.
Yao Zhiqing, the county lord of Jiangbei County, frowned, and said with a smile to Cai Pu: "It seems that Southeast County has produced good seedlings this year! Cai Lao, congratulations." With such good seedlings, Southeast County is expected to break into the top ten of the Imperial Capital General Ring Competition this year!"
"It's easy to say!" Cai Pu looked smug and said without modesty: "Forget the top ten, Southeast County has only one goal this year, which is to win the championship of the general ring competition!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Yao Zhiqing, Yutian and Qin Zhenbei, the three county lords, looked stunned, but Zhang Jun and several imperial capital officials who came with him were also stunned.
As for the young players in Jiangbei, Jiangnan and Dongshan County, they all had bad eyes and stared at Lin Shengsheng's table with murderous anger, especially Lin Shengsheng, who seemed to regard him as the only competitor and wanted to get rid of him quickly.
Lin was speechless.
I said, sir, even if my goal is indeed to be the champion, you don't have to say it in public!
Zhang Jun couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he knew Cai Pu very well, the former teacher. Although the teacher is modest on weekdays, since he became the county lord of Southeast County, the Shaoyan Shengwu Ring Tournament has become his heart disease. has not broken into the top ten of the Imperial Capital General Ring Competition for several consecutive years, and his results are far inferior to his grandfather, not to mention his father. Cai Pu had already turned his head sad about this, and even let out that his only wish in this life was to be able to lead the young talents of Southeast County to win a championship in the Shaoyan Shengwu Ring Tournament before retiring.
This year, several outstanding young talents suddenly appeared in Southeast County, and even had the opportunity to realize his wish.
This is also the reason why after learning that the ten players who finally broke into the Imperial Capital General Ring Tournament were attacked by the Silver Knight of the Holy Spirit Sect and three of them died, Cai Pu was furious and personally led Lin Shengsheng and others to the Imperial Capital to meet the Flame Emperor in person.
After eating and drinking in "Yuelaiju", the Imperial Capital Shengwu Academy came.
According to the rules, the players from the eighteen counties who came to participate in the competition had to go to the Imperial Capital Shengwu Academy to prepare for the competition at the Imperial Capital Shengwu Academy, and the academy would arrange accommodation until the start of the general ring competition.
The Shaoyan Saint Martial Arts' General Ring Tournament would not start for at least twenty days, which meant that Lin Shengsheng and Meng Ben would have to stay at the Imperial Capital Saint Martial Academy for twenty days.
The rules are like this, Lin Shengsheng and Meng Ben had to say goodbye to Shenggu Hongye and the eldest brother and second brother one by one, and followed the gentleman of the Imperial Capital Shengwu Academy to the academy under the instructions of everyone.
The imperial capital of the Great Yan Empire is very large, it is the first male city of the Great Yan Empire, the total area is larger than the total area of Yanyang City and Wanghai City combined, built on the central axis of the whole city, connecting the city gate into the city and the main gate of the imperial city Suzaku Street, the width alone is enough to be eighty zhang wide, and ten carriages are not too crowded. The population of the imperial capital is the largest among the cities of the Great Yan Empire, which is said to have more than three million people.
The imperial capital is composed of three parts: the city of Kuocheng, the palace city and the imperial city, and the plane of the whole city is a square, surrounded by a wall as high as 30 zhang and a moat that is 100 zhang wide outside the city. Each city has three gates. The streets are crisscrossed, with 14 large streets facing north and south, and 11 large streets facing east and west, most of which are more than 50 zhang wide.
The most famous and splendid building in the imperial capital is undoubtedly the Imperial Palace of the Flame Emperor, which covers an area of 350 hectares and is said to have 8,972 halls and attics, the largest of which is called the Jiuyang Temple.
In addition to the Imperial Palace, there is another place in the imperial capital that is more famous, and that is the Holy Martial Academy.
The Holy Martial Academy has a total of twelve branches in the Great Yan Empire, but the Holy Martial Academy in the imperial capital is undoubtedly the center, and it is the holy place in the hearts of all martial cultivators or spiritual cultivators in the Great Yan Empire.
Because, in the Imperial Capital Saint Martial Academy, there is the head of the four great martial saints of the Great Yan Empire, known as the person closest to the god - Lord Dean.
The dean of the Holy Martial Arts Academy is said to be a person of the same generation as Emperor Li Xiong, the founding emperor of the Great Yan Empire, and the Holy Martial Academy was founded by him. His cultivation was already a saint rank a hundred years ago, second only to Emperor Li Xiong, and he was the most likely person to break through to the god level and become the second martial god.
No one knows how powerful the Dean of the Lu Dao is, only that since the Emperor Li Xiong became a god and ascended, no one has ever been the opponent of the Dean, and no matter who challenged him, there was basically no way to force the Dean to go all out, and the loss was crisp.
Jia Bieli, the "Hidden Saint" who is the same as the Dean and the Four Martial Saints, once challenged the Dean and is said to have fled thousands of miles away with only one move.
Considered the idol of all swordsmen in the world, the sword saint Liang Er, known as "Taihao's strongest sword", also came to the Holy Martial Arts Academy to challenge the dean, but in the face of the dean, he directly admitted defeat without a sword.
Du Wudao, the "Killing Venerable" who had just advanced to the Holy Rank, ran to the Holy Martial Academy to kill, provoked the Dean to make a move, and knocked him off the back mountain cliff with just one palm, and disappeared for twenty years.
In addition, it is said that after the barbarian Tuomu Xiongye of the steppe unified the barbarians and established the "Great Golden Empire", he sent the first warrior of the barbarian tribe to the Imperial Capital Shengwu Academy to challenge the dean. As a result, for fifty years, the steppe barbarians were honest and did not dare to invade the Great Yan Empire.
Such a dean is undoubtedly a god in the minds of all the people of the Great Yan Empire, except for Emperor Li Xiong a hundred years ago. At the same time, the Imperial Capital Saint Martial Academy, which was personally led by the Dean, had become a holy place that was more famous and desirable than the Imperial Palace of the Flame Emperor.
Being able to come to the Imperial Capital Holy Martial Academy to study and get the guidance of the Dean is naturally the biggest dream of almost all martial cultivators in the Great Yan Empire.
It's a pity that although the Holy Martial Academy in the imperial capital admits a large number of students every year, it is almost impossible to get the guidance of the dean himself. The dean has been living a reclusive life in the mountains behind the academy for decades, and he doesn't ask about the affairs of the academy anymore, unless something big happens that the gentlemen of the academy can't solve, just like the "killing" Du Wudao came to the door twenty years ago, otherwise the dean basically won't appear.
The current stewards of the academy are Chen Cheng, the vice dean, and seventeen professor-level gentlemen, and it is said that these people are all students brought out by the dean himself, and all of them have the strength of the martial arts level.
Especially the vice president Chen Cheng, who is the eldest disciple of the dean, it is said that after the battle of "killing the honorable" Du Wudao twenty years ago, the vice president Chen Cheng also successfully promoted to the Holy Academy, becoming the sixth martial saint of the Great Yan Empire.
When they come to such a place, no one dares to be temperamental, even the most arrogant and unscrupulous students will become honest and do not dare to provoke trouble easily, otherwise what awaits them is confinement.
