Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 368 - 350 People from Tai’a Academy

The elder from the Tai’a Academy had arrived!

It signified that the assessment was about to begin...

Of course, this time the elder from the Tai’a Academy mainly came to examine a genius from the Liu Clan named Liu Yuanhuai.

As for the assessments of others, they were merely incidental.

"Qin Qing. The person you were arguing with just now is named Liu Zhenglu. He is also one of the candidates recommended by the Liu Clan this time," Liu Hongxue whispered.

"Liu Zhenglu!" Qin Qing nodded slightly.

"And what about Liu Yuanhuai?" Qin Qing asked again.

"Over there, he has just arrived..." Liu Hongxue gestured for Qin Qing to look to the other side, where a young man in a white robe stood, looking to be about the same age as Qin Qing.

But Qin Qing suddenly realized that this person was also in the Golden Core Realm!

"Golden Core Realm? How old is he this year?" Qin Qing asked.

"Eighteen!" Liu Hongxue replied.

"Eighteen years old and in the Golden Core Realm..." Qin Qing couldn’t help feeling a small shock.

He initially thought that Liu Zhenglu reaching the Golden Core Realm in his early twenties was already monstrous, but Liu Yuanhuai had achieved this even younger, at just eighteen years old.

Although his aura was still somewhat unsteady, indicating he had just broken through to the Golden Core Realm not long ago.

But being able to form the Golden Core at this age was truly terrifying; in smaller places like Qian Country, it was simply unimaginable.

"Second Sister, from a distance, I heard that you guys had a dispute, what happened?"

As Liu Yuanhuai approached, he came to Liu Baiying’s side and asked with a light smile.

"Isn’t it just someone who didn’t know his place?" Liu Baiying pointed at Qin Qing: "That savage is the one Liu Hongxue brought back from Qian Country. He is the one who killed Madame Xu."

Liu Zhenglu added, "This guy is really something, killed Madame Xu, hid in our Liu Clan, and now he even dared to threaten Sister Bai. I already said, if he dares to disrespect Sister Bai again, I will end his cheap life directly with the sole of my foot!"

After hearing this, Liu Yuanhuai simply smiled faintly, only casting a perfunctory glance at Qin Qing.

"There’s no need to get angry over some trash shrimp," Liu Yuanhuai said with a light smile.

Qin Qing couldn’t help but slightly narrow his eyes.

Liu Yuanhuai appeared indifferent, but the disdain revealed in his dismissive tone was even more mocking and contemptuous than that of Liu Zhenglu and Liu Baiying.

However, this only served to ignite Qin Qing’s fighting spirit.

Eighteen years old... in the Golden Core Realm, so what?

Qin Qing was also eighteen this year, but he was already at the eighth level of the Divine Might Realm.

He was also confident he could break through to the Golden Core Realm within the year.

As for the difference in their strength?

That would only be known after they clashed...

Just then, the elder from Tai’a Academy had already approached.

In addition, many members of the Liu Clan courteously gathered around the elder.

"Elder Jin Ying, you’ve had a long journey," a clan elder from the Liu Clan stood beside Elder Jin Ying from the Tai’a Academy, smiling and bowing his hands. While doing so, he discreetly handed over a Spirit Ring.

Elder Jin Ying had a sturdy build, average height, and a mustache. Upon receiving the Spirit Ring, a broad smile instantly spread across his face.

"It’s not arduous at all; this is what I should do. Now, let’s get straight to the point—who among the Liu Clan is Liu Yuanhuai?" Elder Feng inquired.

At that moment, Liu Yuanhuai, who stood beside Liu Baiying, walked toward Elder Feng under everyone’s gaze.

"Elder Feng, I am Liu Yuanhuai," said Liu Yuanhuai, clasping his hands in greeting.

Upon hearing this, Elder Feng sized up Liu Yuanhuai from head to toe, then extended a hand to point at the space between Liu Yuanhuai’s eyebrows.

A moment later, he withdrew his hand and said, "Hmm, not bad, eighteen years old and recently entered the Golden Core Realm. Your talent is also quite commendable. There are no issues... You may accompany me to Tai’a Academy today. As for whose disciple you will become under one of the elders, that can be decided later."

"I thank Elder Feng," Liu Yuanhuai said, bowing deeply.

"No need. It’s a trifle... Furthermore, I have another proposal that you may want to consider carefully," added Elder Feng.

"Please speak, Elder Feng," said Liu Yuanhuai.

"Your entry into Tai’a Academy is as an Inner Sect Disciple. However, today, inside Tai’a Academy, the assessment for True Disciples is being held. If you can ascend to the Seventh Level of the Wind-Fire Tower, you will become a True Disciple of Tai’a Academy, or even qualify to be accepted by one of the eighteen Golden Seal Elders!"

Elder Feng’s words caused a ripple of emotion among the surrounding crowd.

The Golden Seal Elders represented the most revered elder status within Tai’a Academy.

Tai’a Academy is a Martial Institute of a caliber far surpassing any other Martial Institutes.

In the entire Tai’a Ancient Country, the premier Martial Institute is Tai’a Academy, and becoming one of its elders is exceedingly difficult.

Take Elder Feng for example, he possesses the cultivation of the Divinity Transformation Realm, but within Tai’a Academy, he is merely an ordinary elder, not even having attained the status of a Silver Seal Elder... 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

As for the Golden Seal Elders, within the entire Tai’a Academy, there are only eighteen.

Among these eighteen, there are even several who are at the Cataclysmic Realm and are Martial Saints. Even if the other Golden Seal Elders are not Martial Saints, they are but a step away from that exalted rank, and they possess astonishing abilities in various domains.

For instance, as Pharmacists, Spiritual Pattern Masters, or Sword Cultivators...

Each one has abilities that allow them to look down upon the entirety of the Heavenly Mind Continent.

To be accepted as a disciple by one of these eighteen Golden Seal Elders is, without a doubt, the best opportunity for any young Martial Artist to soar to the heavens!

"Thank you for the reminder, Elder Feng!" Liu Yuanhuai said, clasping his hands together, his eyes sparkling with excitement; he was clearly tempted.

It was obvious that he would participate in the Wind-Fire Tower assessment.

"Qin Qing..." At this time, Liu Hongxue also whispered to Qin Qing, "As I mentioned earlier, if you become an Inner Sect Disciple of Tai’a Academy and pass certain assessments, a Pharmacist from the academy could treat Xiaoshuang’s illness. The Wind-Fire Tower assessment is one of those I mentioned before..."

"However, I was unaware that today happens to be the day Tai’a Academy’s eighteen Golden Seal Elders recruit True Disciples. If... you can successfully reach the Seventh Level, becoming a True Disciple of one of the eighteen Golden Seal Elders, then I believe... the Pharmacists in Tai’a Academy will undoubtedly hasten to treat Xiaoshuang’s illness!"

"The Wind-Fire Tower assessment, the True Disciples of the eighteen Golden Seal Elders..." Qin Qing nodded slowly, a determined look in his eyes, "Yes, I will definitely take part in the Wind-Fire Tower assessment, and I must reach the Seventh Level!"

Qin Qing glanced at Xiaoshuang, whom he was holding by the hand. A faint red glow was subtly emerging between Xiaoshuang’s brows.

This indicated that Xiaoshuang’s Fire Disease could erupt at any moment...

"But... if you wish to participate in the Wind-Fire Tower assessment, you must first pass Elder Feng’s evaluation. Only by passing his assessment will you have the chance to enter Tai’a Academy," Liu Hongxue reminded him in a low voice. "Those competing with you now are Liu Zhenglu and a few others..."

At that moment, Elder Feng also announced, "I now officially declare Liu Yuanhuai an Inner Sect Disciple of my Tai’a Academy. Additionally, if the Liu Clan has other talents to recommend, they may now step forward..."

Following Elder Feng’s words, Liu Zhenglu and several other young members of the Liu Clan stood up one after another.

And beside Liu Hongxue, Qin Qing stepped forward as well.

However, when Qin Qing stepped out, a wave of surprised gazes fell upon him.

"Giggle giggle giggle..." Liu Baiying couldn’t help but laugh, "Sister Hongxue, don’t tell me you’re giving this spot to a barbarian from Qian Country because you don’t have anyone else to recommend? You don’t seriously think that a mere barbarian could also have a chance to enter Tai’a Academy, do you?"

At the same time, more bursts of roaring laughter echoed from those around them...
