967: Senior and junior classmates meet

Song Yeche's voice rang out, bringing this battle to a complete close!

When those at the foot of the mountain heard this, although many had already guessed the outcome, the sound of discussion continued to rise incessantly!

"My god, so this is Chai Wudi's true combat power? It's truly terrifying!"

"This is definitely a true Prodigy. Haha, it seems our Li Academy will also have a trump card for the upcoming Eight Academies Great Competition!"

"This Chai Wudi's combat power is indeed strong, but don't forget, the other eleven are even stronger than Song Yeche!"

"True, but it's just that this Chai Wudi's Realm is a bit low. If his Realm were also at the ninth stage of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, he could definitely sweep the eight Outer Courts."

"I didn't see Chai Wudi take action yesterday, but today I've finally gotten my wish. It was worth coming here before dawn to snag a good spot!"

Discussions similar to these spread throughout the foot of the mountain, with excitement visible in many people's eyes.

A look of pride suddenly appeared on Xiao Dong's face. Having such a powerful guy take his Immortal Cave was not only not embarrassing, but he even felt a sense of shared glory!

Where the Masters were gathered, many were also quite moved, looking at Chen Qirong with eyes full of envy.

This guy really has good luck. He hasn't accepted a student in the ten or so years since coming to the Li Academy, yet this time he happened upon such an excellent person.

According to the rules of Tianchen Academy, once one's cultivation reaches the fourth stage of the supreme realm, they can apply to become a Master in the Inner Court.

This condition is actually not difficult; many Masters in the eight Outer Courts can achieve it.

The difficulty lies in another regulation: before a Master enters the Inner Court, they must have a peerless prodigy following them in their cultivation.

One must know that during the Climbing the Heavenly Ladder assessment, the peerless prodigies are already selected for the Inner Court. Only those who do not enter the Inner Court would then flow toward the eight Outer Courts.

Trying to find a peerless prodigy within the eight Outer Courts is an extremely difficult task.

Therefore, many Masters simply give up on the idea of entering the Inner Court after arriving at the Outer Court!

Song Qianshang was dispatched to the Li Academy because, while in the Inner Court, he failed to keep a proper eye on an eighth-rank Vicious Beast, leading to its escape and the devouring of a Prodigy.

He felt this couldn't be entirely blamed on him and even talked back to the Dean, which led to him being sent to the Li Academy.

Some Masters who got used to staying in the Inner Court would look down on the Outer Court somewhat!

This prejudice was also present in Song Qianshang!

It was precisely for this reason that many Masters disliked Song Qianshang after he came to the Li Academy.

Song Qianshang seemed to sense the strange looks from the other Masters, and his expression turned quite gloomy!

At this moment, Yu Ling looked at the distant Ji Wuchang with exceptionally bright eyes.

Liao Qing beside her also looked at Ji Wuchang in surprise. With such methods, if he had participated in the Climbing the Heavenly Ladder, he would have surely entered the Inner Court directly.

Her Divine Soul surged, taking in all the discussions below, and she soon understood the origins of 'Chai Wudi'!

Just when everyone thought things could end here, a cold voice rang out!

"Junior Brother, you have good skill. Would you care to spar a few rounds with me?"

The speaker was none other than Yu Ling. She took a step forward, her body blurring into countless afterimages as she headed straight for Ji Wuchang in the distance.

This sudden turn of events not only shocked the Masters of the Li Academy but even Liao Qing was exceptionally surprised.

Liao Qing opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't speak.

She understood Yu Ling's character; she was definitely not an impulsive person, so there must be something she didn't know.

As for the students of the Li Academy, most of them were in a state of confusion!

Only the pupils of Zhan Sizhen, Ji Zhongliang, and others couldn't help but shrink slightly.

How could they not recognize Yu Ling? She was the person who had caused a sensation throughout the entire Inner Court.

The Dean had wanted to personally guide her cultivation, but she had chosen Master Liao Qing instead.

"Senior Sister!"

When Ji Wuchang heard this voice, his body shook violently, and a look of unprecedented pleasant surprise appeared in his eyes.

He had just been fully focused on the battle with Song Yeche and hadn't noticed Yu Ling's presence at all.

He turned around excitedly, looking at the approaching graceful figure with bright eyes.

Yu Ling's expression remained cold, but there seemed to be a special emotion surging in her eyes.

She stood several thousand feet away, her peerless beauty making her look like a goddess descending!

Ji Wuchang's body flickered, appearing not far from Yu Ling, his face full of joy.

With a thought, he smiled and said, "Chai Wudi pays his respects to Senior Sister Yu Ling!"

Yu Ling gave Ji Wuchang a glare. How could she not understand Ji Wuchang's meaning? This Junior Brother was unwilling to reveal his true identity.

She didn't expose him either, smiling as she said, "Junior Brother, long time no see. I didn't expect you to come to Tianchen Academy as well!"

Yu Ling's words were cold, but Ji Wuchang could hear the joy within them.

As soon as Yu Ling finished speaking, the entire Li Academy broke into an uproar. When they looked at Ji Wuchang, their gazes were completely different.

"Dean, what exactly is going on?"

"How did this kid Chai Wudi get involved with the Yu Family Prodigy?"

Master Zhao had a rather impatient personality; he looked directly at Song Qianshang and asked.

At this moment, Song Qianshang's heart was similarly churning with stormy waves. He also looked at Ji Wuchang and Yu Ling in shock, his mind in a state of chaos.

"I don't know either. I was also entrusted by an old friend; I owed him a favor back then, and he asked me to bring his junior into Tianchen Academy!"

"I didn't even check his root bone before bringing him here!"

Song Qianshang felt bitter inside, briefly explaining the matter. At this moment, his heart was filled with such regret that he felt like his intestines were turning green.

The potential displayed by this 'Chai Wudi' was stronger than many people in the Inner Court.

If he had let him stay by his side to Cultivate from the start, he would have definitely been able to return to the Inner Court.

But he had actually given this opportunity to Chen Qirong for nothing. Thinking of this, he was depressed to the extreme!

When Master Zhao and the others heard Song Qianshang's explanation, they were all quite speechless, but they then looked at Chen Qirong with eyes full of envy.

One must know that entering the Inner Court not only speeds up cultivation but, most importantly, the treatment in the Inner Court far exceeds that of the Outer Court!

Chen Qirong appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was also exceptionally excited. He hadn't expected this kind of outcome himself.

He had just gone down to the volcano last night and discovered that more than half of the Fire Qilin Beasts inside had been killed, and even that eighth-rank Fire Qilin Beast was injured.

After he learned the truth of the matter, he was exceptionally shocked.

But he also knew that this matter was of great importance, so he hadn't even told Master Zhao.

He had originally planned to find a time today to ask Chai Wudi about it!

But Liao Qing's arrival had prevented Chen Qirong from having a chance to speak.

Chen Qirong naturally wanted to go to the Inner Court. Once there, he was confident that he could Breakthrough to the fifth stage of the supreme realm within three years.

If he stayed in the Outer Court, it would take at least ten more years!

He ignored the gazes of the other surrounding Masters and instead looked at Ji Wuchang, a look of contemplation appearing in his eyes.

He felt that the other party's identity was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface!
