Tonight's moonlight was incomparably bright. A group of ten students quickly rushed over, all covered in blood. Many of them had short spears stuck in their bodies, and their faces were full of fear.
Luo Kai took a step forward, and the monstrous monkeys in his line of sight suddenly stopped, as if they had been frightened and fled in all directions.
Liu Zhi's face slightly changed. He looked deeply at Luo Kai and said, "Little friend Luo Kai, we twelve Holy Disciples are scattered all over the world. It's rare for us to gather together. How about having a drink with me?"
"Twelve Holy Disciples?"
"Haha, Old Seven didn't say anything to you. Let's go in and talk."
Luo Kai shook his head, "Not today. I still have to take the exam. I'll come and find you when I have the chance."
Liu Zhi smiled and nodded, "Okay then."
At this moment, the gate of the base had already opened. Some students swarmed in, but some stopped. Once they entered, it was equivalent to terminating the exam and losing the chance to compete for the ranking.
Luo Kai turned and left. Liu Zhi behind him did not move for a long time. The feeling of being watched did not fade away.
…
Late at night, a group of three people were resting in the forest. The battle with the ferocious beasts had become more and more intense in the past two days. They were more or less injured. One of the men with sword-like eyebrows was the Eighth Prince of the royal family, Qian Yuanxin. He had an imposing appearance. Even though he had been fighting for days, he did not show the slightest sign of fatigue.
A tall and thin youth beside him analyzed, "Brother Qian, the Seventh Prince provoked the Kui Bull. If it wasn't for You Long, he would have died on the spot. The rest of the people who have the ability to compete with you are all acting alone. They are definitely not as fast as us. The first place of this exam is not a big problem."
Another youth with a spear also said, "Yes, the three of us are acting together. One person can't be faster than us!"
The tall and thin youth was called Xing Qi, and the youth with a spear was called Ruan Xin. They were both high-level physical warriors who had reached 40% energy infusion. They were ranked among the top ten masters in the school. Any one of them had the ability to compete with the Bohan class. Now that the three of them were together, they were naturally invincible. In less than two days, they had killed hundreds of ferocious beasts.
Qian Yuanxin frowned and remained silent.
"What is the eighth prince worried about?" Ruan Xin probed.
Qian Yuanxin pondered deeply for a long time before he said, "Brothers, do you remember that Tuoba Yong once asked a student to call him master?"
Xing Qi chuckled and said, "Oh, that silly son of the Tuoba family. He might have been deceived by someone, so he randomly called me master."
Qian Yuanxin said solemnly, "I only glanced at that person, but my heart trembled for some reason. This person is definitely not simple!"
"So what? Among the Four Great Clans, the Xi Clan and the Yun Clan don't have anyone, but the Luo Clan from the North has a powerful girl. It is said that she was born with the Ice Spirit Body. Tuoba Yong from the Tuoba Clan was born with great strength, and he is one in a billion. If there are no accidents, the two of them should be able to get a spot. As for the Royal Clan, you and the Thirteenth Prince are also guaranteed spots.
Qian Yuanxin shook his head. "The final quota will still be decided by the Saint Master. He has always pursued balance, so he might take away one of the royal family's quotas."
"Ah, that can't be!" The two of them were shocked.
Qian Yuanxin smiled bitterly and said, "In recent years, Father has been trying to take away the autonomy of the Suzerains. Although the Saint Master has never interfered with worldly affairs, from the performance of the Yun Clan's disciples, it seems that he doesn't quite agree. Moreover, this generation of the Royal Clan's descendants is a bit too conspicuous, which doesn't conform to the Saint Master's principle of moderation."
"How can that be? Although the Suzerains respect the Great Clans on the surface, they are secretly in discord. Our Human Clan can only work together to expel the Ferocious Beasts when we are completely unified. Why would the Saint Master disagree?"
"Perhaps the Sacred Teacher is afraid of causing internal strife. Not only the Sacred Teacher, but the four great clans are also staunch opponents. Eight out of the thirteen senators in the Senate are against it. Father has been rejected several times as soon as he raised the issue, so he is very angry."
Qian Yuanxin then sighed and said, "The Thirteenth Prince is very young, and he cultivates the Blazing Prairie Spear Technique of our Royal Clan. Therefore, the person who will be taken away is very likely to be me."
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed. He looked at the darkness in the forest and said in a deep voice, "I don't know which student has come. Why don't you show yourself?"
Luo Kai walked out in surprise. He didn't mean to eavesdrop, but when he walked here, he accidentally heard their conversation. He couldn't help but stop when he was talking about himself. With his ability to suppress his aura by lowering his Qi and blood circulation, even mature Ferocious Beasts would have a hard time discovering him. He didn't expect the Eighth Prince to be so sensitive.
"It's you."
Qian Yuanxin was also very surprised to see him. He then smiled and said, "Hello, student. You must be a new student this year. May I know your name?"
Luo Kai said from afar, "My name is Luo Kai. I just passed by. Sorry to disturb you."
"Oh … Student Luo, are you a child of the North Town Luo Family?"
It seemed that every time he mentioned his surname, he would be misunderstood. Luo Kai said helplessly, "No, it's just that we both have the same surname."
Qian Yuanxin's eyebrows flashed with a hint of joy. He said enthusiastically, "Student Luo, if you have nothing to do late at night, please come and have a drink."
Luo Kai hesitated slightly and walked over, "Then I won't be polite."
The three of them finally had a chance to look at him. They couldn't help but show a surprised expression because they couldn't feel any aura emitted by Luo Kai. It must be known that as long as it was a living creature, it would emit an aura. And the stronger the life, the stronger the aura emitted. But the person in front of them didn't emit any aura at all. It was as if they were facing a mass of air. If they didn't see it with their eyes, they would have doubted their perception. It could be imagined that if such a person wanted to sneak attack them, they would have no power to resist!
Qian Yuanxin's expression was even more dignified. He secretly activated the power of his bloodline. Their royal family had inherited a telepathic ability called the Unmarked Spirit Heart. This ability made it easier for them to sense the energy of heaven and earth and to perceive the subtle energy changes in the outside world. The energy aura of the young man in front of him was sometimes soft, sometimes violent, sometimes gloomy, and sometimes high-spirited. It was more of a sense of transcendence, which made people feel ashamed of their inferiority.
Luo Kai didn't mind their gazes. Seeing a wine pot on the ground, he picked it up and drank without hesitation. He hadn't drunk for a long time. When the wine entered his throat, it was sweet and mellow. At first, he felt a little nauseous, but his stomach quickly adapted to the wine. Now, his control of his internal organs had reached a new level. He didn't take the initiative to dissolve the wine, but let the wine mix into his blood. He felt a little tipsy and couldn't help but praise, "Good wine, what's the name of this wine?"
Qian Yuanxin had already recovered, and the surprise on his face quickly faded. He laughed and said, "I didn't expect Student Luo to be a wine lover. This wine is called the Hero Wine. It comes from the Strong Wind Winery in Shang Jing. After this matter is over, I'll invite Student Luo to the Strong Wind Winery for a drink!"
"Strong Wind Winery."
Luo Kai murmured. He remembered that Tuoba Ye said that he wanted to invite him to this place for a drink, but he didn't fulfill his promise. He had been affected by various kinds of energy all his life, and alcohol could temporarily numb him, so he was greedy for the thing in this cup. He never refused to drink. Now that he had a natural state of mind, he wouldn't deliberately suppress his desires. He nodded and said, "Okay."
Qian Yuanxin was overjoyed, "I can't wait. Unfortunately, this damn exam will take a few days!"
Luo Kai secretly praised in his heart. This eighth prince was really extraordinary. He knew that people who liked to drink strong wine must be broad-minded, so his words were straightforward and could win others' favor.
