456: The fight is over, hospital admissions are available

An hour later.

The battle concluded.

On the plaza, numerous corpses were piled up, blood staining the ground red; all hundred of the demon race had been annihilated.

Xuan Guan and the others were covered in blood, their faces extremely pale, having sustained serious injuries, but their fighting spirit was incredibly strong; they had still won this battle.

"We finally won."

Many cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.

The demon race was brutal; today they had only slain a hundred demons, but in the Northern Lands, there were countless more, even more terrifying.

"Silence!"

Li Xuankong flew up, emitting a majestic voice.

......

Everyone present immediately quieted down.

Li Xuankong glanced at everyone: "I am a disciple of the Tai Academy, Li Xuankong! This banquet today was hosted by Thunderclap Estate at my request."

"What? This person is actually a disciple of the Tai Academy? No wonder his strength is so terrifying."

"Li Xuankong? Why does that name sound vaguely familiar?"

"What is the purpose of the Tai Academy having Thunderclap Estate host this banquet?"

......

Many cultivators showed expressions of confusion.

"Li Xuankong?"

Xuan Guan and the other two exchanged glances, their eyes showing surprise.

Others might be unfamiliar with the name Li Xuankong, but they had heard some things.

It was said that the Imperial Advisor had a disciple named Li Xuankong, who ranked among the top three of the younger generation in Eastern Zhou; he usually stayed in the Tai Academy and rarely appeared.

It must be the person before them; a Dao Repository Realm Peak cultivation, able to easily suppress and kill Lei Zheng, who was also a Dao Repository Realm Peak, was indeed not simple.

Li Xuankong smiled faintly: "Today, I had Thunderclap Estate host this banquet, actually for one purpose, which is to allow everyone present to spar with each other. Those who perform exceptionally well will not only receive treasures but also gain admission to my Tai Academy..."

He was not only the Imperial Advisor's disciple but also a traveling envoy for the Tai Academy, constantly searching for promising talents to bring back to the Tai Academy.

Today, quite a few good talents had appeared.

"What? An admission slot to the Tai Academy?"

"My biggest dream in this life is to enter the Tai Academy."

"The Tai Academy is a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers reside, with countless resources, and even a Divine Court expert like the Imperial Advisor overseeing it. If we can enter the Tai Academy, we will surely go much further."

Everyone's eyes showed shock.

Li Xuankong mused: "This demon race attack was beyond my expectation, but it is also a good opportunity to test everyone's strength. I witnessed everyone's battle with the demon race just now, and there are some very promising talents among them, whom I plan to directly grant admission to the Tai Academy."

"Of course, there were also many bystanders just now who, upon seeing the demon race attack, not only refused to act but also thought about escaping. Such people will never be allowed into the Tai Academy."

The Imperial Advisor established the Tai Academy to cultivate more young people to resist the demon race.

If one did not even have the courage to fight the demon race, they naturally had no qualification to enter the Tai Academy.

There were over three hundred young cultivators from Eastern Zhou present today, but only about a hundred actually took action.

This was just facing a hundred demons, yet so many people were too scared to act. If they faced tens of thousands of demons, wouldn't they be scared to death directly?

Without even the confidence to fight the demon race, such people, even if they entered the Tai Academy, would be a waste of resources.

Hearing Li Xuankong's words, the cultivators who had taken action earlier showed excitement, hoping their performance had caught Li Xuankong's eye.

Some bystanders, however, were filled with regret.

For example, Xue Jianchen, whose face was pale at this moment, with regret in his eyes.

He also wanted to enter the Tai Academy, but he had not taken action just now, and he had even provoked Li Xuankong. He probably wouldn't be able to enter the Tai Academy in the future.

Li Xuankong looked at Xuan Guan and the other two: "Today, the three of you performed exceptionally well, even more extraordinary than I imagined."

Saying that, he waved his sleeve.

The black long spear flew towards Xuan Guan, and the Thunderclap Pearl flew towards Pure Lotus Saintess.

......

Xuan Guan took the black long spear, a smile appearing on his face.

With a Supreme-Grade Spiritual Weapon in hand, he felt that everything was worth it.

Li Xuankong looked at Lu Heng and said with a smile: "The Ethereal Flame Map has been taken by Brother Xie, but Junior Brother Lu, you need not be disheartened. Once you enter the Tai Academy, the gates of alchemy in the Tai Academy will be fully open to you."

Lu Heng's face lit up upon hearing this, and he immediately bowed to Li Xuankong: "Many thanks, Senior Brother Li!"

......

Li Xuankong nodded gently.

He then looked at everyone present, and subsequently had more than ten people step forward; these were all individuals who had performed exceptionally well earlier.

He flicked his finger, and more than ten tokens flew towards these people: "I witnessed all of your performances just now. These are admission tokens for the Tai Academy. You will follow me to the Tai Academy later."

"Many thanks, Senior Brother Li."

Everyone took the tokens, bowing with excited faces.

Among them was the woman from the Heavenly Sword Sect, who, as a Tuojiang Realm Peak, had fought fiercely with the demonic beasts and performed exceptionally well.

Li Xuankong did not deprive her of the opportunity because of her earlier mockery; instead, he gave her a token.

The woman held the token, a joyful smile on her face, and she held even more admiration for Li Xuankong, with a glint of admiration in her eyes.

Li Xuankong looked at the remaining cultivators and chuckled: "The rest of you need not be disheartened. Your performance in fighting the demonic beasts just now was not bad either. You can follow me to the Tai Academy later to participate in the assessment. Your battle with the demonic beasts today counts as the first round of assessment, and you have all passed. You only need to complete one more round of assessment to enter my Tai Academy."

"Many thanks, Senior Brother Li."

The remaining people bowed with excited faces.

Li Xuankong smiled, his gaze falling on Xie Weilou, and he cupped his hands: "Brother Xie, I plan to return to the Tai Academy next. Are you interested in visiting the Tai Academy with me?"

......

Everyone also looked at Xie Weilou.

They had all witnessed Xie Weilou's earlier actions; three Profound Phase Realm Peak great demons were instantly crushed by him, which was simply astonishing.

Xie Weilou smiled faintly: "I still have other matters at hand. After I resolve them, I will visit the Tai Academy."

Li Xuankong's face showed a smile upon hearing this, and he said earnestly: "Then I will quietly await Brother Xie's arrival at the Tai Academy."

This Xie put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "This Xie has eaten enough, Brother Li, farewell!"

Saying that, he flew away.

The Ethereal Flame Map was already in hand; next, he had to go directly to Thunder Sacred Mountain, hoping to cultivate the Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Punishment Body to the fifth layer.

He wondered what changes his body would undergo after cultivating to the fifth layer; it truly made him curious.

......

Li Xuankong looked at Xie Weilou's departing figure and bowed again.

Yun Zhi looked at Li Xuankong and asked curiously: "Senior Brother Li, may I ask who that person was just now?"

Li Xuankong did not directly reveal Xie Weilou's identity, only smiling and saying: "He is a very formidable important figure!"
