Outside the Imperial Academy, Li Ziye sneaked out cautiously, looking around to see if anyone was waiting to ambush him.
"Stop looking, no one's there."
From behind, Bai Wangyu walked over and said, "Those people couldn't wait and have already left."
"Old Bai."
Li Ziye's face lit up when he saw the newcor and asked, "Is your injury okay now?"
"I've taken the dicine, it's nothing serious."
Bai Wangyu smiled and said, "But Yan Xiaoyu's injury is much more severe than mine."
"Yeah, I made a mistake."
Li Ziye grinned and said, "I should have just killed him with one sword."
"Haha."
Bai Wangyu chuckled and said, "There's no need for that. If he died in Great Shang, it would cause so trouble. The sword you gave him is enough to leave a lasting impression on him."
"I didn't think that much at the ti, but looking back now, it feels great!"
Li Ziye said with a sense of relief.
"Let's talk about it later, let's go."
Bai Wangyu smiled and then walked towards Li Yuan with his sword on his back.
"Wait for ."
Li Ziye hurried to catch up, talking non-stop along the way, venting to Little Red Riding Hood about the oppression he faced from the old man at the Confucian School.
Bai Wangyu just listened patiently with a smile, rarely interrupting.
Before long, in front of Li Yuan, Li Ziye seed to have let sothing slip, and Bai Wangyu stopped in his tracks, looking surprised as he asked, "What did you say? Li Youwei and ?"
Li Ziye quickly covered his mouth and shook his head vigorously, saying, "I didn't say anything."
Bai Wangyu furrowed his brows lightly but didn't ask further, walking into Li Yuan.
Strange, when did the Confucian Scholar start caring about the private affairs of the Confucian School disciples?
In the front yard, a beautiful figure was waiting, with a graceful face, long hair cascading down, the epito of a beauty.
Bai Wangyu walked over and, upon seeing the woman in the courtyard, felt sothing was off for so reason.
"Sister Youwei."
Li Ziye ran up from behind, joyfully saying, "I won, none of those so-called geniuses could even put up a fight."
"You're really amazing, little brother."
Li Youwei smiled and said, "Are you hungry? The food is ready and waiting for you."
"A little."
Li Ziye replied and then turned to grab Little Red Riding Hood, who was trying to run away, saying, "Let's go, let's eat together."
"Brother Li, I'm not hungry."
Bai Wangyu struggled a bit and said.
"Even if you're not hungry, you have to co. This al is also a celebration for ."
Li Ziye grabbed Little Red Riding Hood's sleeve and dragged him towards the inner courtyard.
In the room, the beautiful young maids of the mansion had already prepared the food and left one after another.
Li Ziye dragged Little Red Riding Hood over and pushed him into a seat.
Behind them, Li Youwei also walked over and sat down opposite.
"Wow, it's rare that everyone's here today."
At this mont, Slovenly Zhang walked over with a jar of wine, looking at the four people at the table and grinning.
"Temple Master Sword Enthusiast."
Bai Wangyu saw the old man approaching and imdiately stood up to pay his respects.
"Sit down, stop being so formal. You've been at Li Yuan for so long, but you still have the habit of being so formal."
After speaking, Slovenly Zhang sat down next to Li Ziye, curious as he asked, "Kid, I heard you made a na for yourself in the Heavenly Book today?"
"Of course, how was it? Am I amazing?"
Li Ziye imdiately straightened up, proud of himself.
"Haha."
Slovenly Zhang chuckled and said, "There's no need to think about it, I'm sure Bai Wangyu helped you fend off most of your opponents. Otherwise, what could you do?"
"What's wrong with ?"
Li Ziye was imdiately annoyed at the comnt and said unwillingly, "I'm also a master of two Divine Hidden Techniques now!"
"Wow, two Divine Hidden Techniques, so amazing!"
Slovenly Zhang sneered, "I've lived for so many years and have never heard of anyone who's weaker than you after making a na for themselves in the Heavenly Book."
"..."
Li Ziye was hit where it hurt and felt like crying.
This old man was really annoying.
He just had to bring it up!
"In fact, Brother Li did quite well. In the Tower of Burning Hearts, if he hadn't given Yan Xiaoyu a sword in the end, perhaps, Yan Xiaoyu would have been the one to win in the end."
On the side, Bai Wangyu tily defended Li Ziye's pride and said.
"He was able to stab Yan Xiaoyu?"
This ti, it was Slovenly Zhang's turn to be surprised and asked, "That's not right, even if you could hold off Yan Xiaoyu, with this kid's little skill, it's impossible for him to injure the Divine Child of the Temple of Heavenly Decree."
"Well... the situation was a bit complicated at the ti."
Bai Wangyu hesitated for a mont and explained, "At the ti, Second Junior Brother and I joined forces, intending to defeat Yan Xiaoyu as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, Yan Xiaoyu suddenly used the Divine Decree Technique, almost sending and Second Junior Brother out directly. Fortunately, at the critical mont when Yan Xiaoyu used the Divine Decree Technique, Brother Li took action and gave him a sword."
"The Divine Decree Technique?"
Slovenly Zhang's expression changed upon hearing this and said, "No, that Yan Xiaoyu hasn't even reached the third realm, it's absolutely impossible for him to learn the Divine Decree Technique, unless..."
At this point, Slovenly Zhang's tone faltered, showing a look of shock.
Could it be that scholar?
"Temple Master Sword Enthusiast's guess is probably correct, it's the handiwork of the Temple of Heavenly Decree's Temple Master."
Slovenly Zhang concluded.Bai Wangyu said in a low voice, "According to the inference of the Confucian Master, the Temple Master of the Divine Oracle Temple may have sealed a divine technique in Yan Xiaoyu's body in advance, which can only be used in a critical mont."
"Weird, why would the Temple of Divine Oracle go to such lengths?"
Slovenly Zhang couldn't understand and said, "This thod will definitely have extre side effects. After using the Divine Oracle technique, Yan Xiaoyu's foundation might be damaged. The cost is really not worth it, unless he is absolutely sure he can win this opportunity. Otherwise, it's completely unnecessary to take such a risk."
With Yan Xiaoyu's martial arts talent, even if his na is not engraved in the heavenly book, he would have been able to enter the Fifth Realm given ti. The current situation has cast a shadow over the martial arts path of this Divine Oracle Child.
"I don't understand this at all."
Bai Wangyu said, "Perhaps the Temple Master of Divine Oracle has other intentions."
"Are you two going to eat?"
At this mont, Li Youwei, who had been silent at the table, looked at the two chattering n and said calmly.
"Yes."
Slovenly Zhang was taken aback, then grinned and dared not say more.
After spending a long ti with her, he realized that judging people by their appearance is nonsense.
He had actually thought that the eldest daughter of the Li family had a pure and kind personality?
He was too naive.
On the side, Bai Wangyu imdiately shut up and quietly picked up his food to eat.
In the middle of the two, Li Ziye had already picked up his bowl and was stuffing food into his mouth with all his might.
Huh, two idiots, they don't speak when it's ti to sleep and don't understand when it's ti to eat? Do they really need Sister Youwei to remind them?
The al ended quickly under Li Youwei's powerful aura, and then everyone went their separate ways.
"Sister Youwei."
As Li Youwei was clearing the table, Li Ziye approached and looked around before whispering, "What do you think of Little Red Riding Hood?"
"Average."
Li Youwei said calmly, "Why do you ask?"
"Nothing."
Hearing his elder sister's evaluation, Li Ziye shook his head regretfully. Little Red Riding Hood, I did my best, but you're just not outstanding enough.
"If you have nothing to do, go rest or practice your sword. Your Second Brother said he will be back soon." Li Youwei reminded him.
"Cough, Second Brother is coming back?"
Li Ziye shuddered at the news and said, "Then I'll go practice my sword first."
With that, Li Ziye hurriedly ran to the west wing.
Seeing this, Bai Wangyu was puzzled and asked, "Brother Li, why are you back again instead of resting?"
"My Second Brother is coming back soon, so I have to make good use of my ti to practice my sword." Li Ziye panted.
"Brother Li's Second Brother?"
Bai Wangyu was surprised and asked, "Li Qingzhi?"
"Yes."
Li Ziye nodded and said, "Have you heard of him too?"
"I've heard of him, but I don't know much about him." Bai Wangyu said.
"Old Bai, let tell you, my Second Brother is a freak."
Li Ziye said in a low voice, "He always bullies because he's a few years older. He's always been bullying ."
"Is there anyone in the Li family who dares to bully Brother Li?" Bai Wangyu looked incredulous and said.
"What do you an, 'is there anyone who dares'? In the Li family, apart from Old Li, I have the lowest status."
Li Ziye said bitterly, "You saw my elder sister just now. When she speaks, no one dares to say a word. My Second Brother may not be as domineering, but he's really good at fighting. I can't beat him, I can't outrun him. I've been beaten up since I was little."
"But Brother Li has already entered the Second Realm, so he shouldn't be beaten up anymore." Bai Wangyu comforted him.
"Heh."
Li Ziye smiled awkwardly and said, "It's useless, Old Bai, I'll tell you, my Second Brother might have already entered the Third Realm."
"The Third Realm?"
Bai Wangyu was shocked to hear this.
Given the age of Brother Li and his elder sister, the second son of the Li family should be no more than twenty years old. It's hard to believe that soone of this age has entered the Third Realm.
"The Li family really hides dragons and tigers!"
Bai Wangyu ca to his senses and couldn't help but sigh.
He had thought that Yan Xiaoyu, San Zang, and Huo Lin'er were already the most powerful among the younger generation, but he didn't expect that the Li family had an even more powerful Li Qingzhi.
Opening three divine hidden techniques, on the Nine Provinces, he was already considered a true master. After all, there are not many Five-Realm cultivators like Confucian Scholars and Plum Blossom Sword Immortals in the world.
"Old Bai, do you understand my pain now?"
Li Ziye said sorrowfully, "So, can I not work hard? I won't say anymore, I need to practice my sword quickly."
"No rush."
Seeing this, Bai Wangyu grabbed him and said, "I have a better way."
"What way?" Li Ziye asked in confusion.
"Aren't you going to be an instructor at the Imperial Academy?" Bai Wangyu said, "In the Imperial Academy, there are also hidden dragons and crouching tigers. If Brother Li can get guidance from those old instructors, his strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds. So, Brother Li, rest up today, and tomorrow we'll go to the Imperial Academy and greet the instructors."
"Good point."
Li Ziye's eyes lit up. As the saying goes, in a group of three, there must be one who is my teacher. The Imperial Academy gathers the most powerful people in the Great Shang. Their insights into martial arts must be different. If he can get their guidance, he might not have to endure his Second Brother's bullying.
...
The next day.As dawn broke, Li Ziye dragged Bai Wangyu out of Li Garden and hurried towards the Imperial Academy.
"Old Bai, what are the personalities of the instructors at the Imperial Academy like?" On the way, Li Ziye asked curiously.
"The Imperial Academy is the sacred land of the Confucian School, and the instructors are naturally the best among them, knowledgeable in propriety, and gentle and refined," Bai Wangyu recited as if reading from a book.
"Oh."
Li Ziye responded, quickly taking note in his mind.
At the north courtyard of the Imperial Academy, Bai Wangyu led Li Ziye over, just about to enter when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Damn it, these little brats are so hard to teach, I really want to slap them to death!"
"Heh, Old Yao, what's the use of complaining? Those little brats, if it weren't for the rules of the Imperial Academy, I would have slapped them dead long ago, it wouldn't even be your turn."
Outside the north courtyard, Li Ziye listened to the noises inside, his face filled with confusion as he turned to look at the little red hood beside him.
Is this what you ant by knowledgeable in propriety, gentle and refined?
