"Uncle Shun, what's the matter?" Chen Yu slowly stopped cultivating and opened the door to the cultivation room. He looked at the elder who was over a hundred years old standing outside the door.
The old man was the steward of this small courtyard, Su Qinghuan was quite interesting. Other than arranging this small courtyard as Chen Yu's residence in the Martial Arts Palace, he had also arranged for servants to take care of Chen Yu's daily living. This Uncle Shun was the steward here, it was said that he was experienced and meticulous in his work, and was even at the peak of the Qi Condensation!
Even though he was already a top-notch expert at the peak of the Qi Condensation, he was only a servant in the Su Family!
"I've disturbed your cultivation!" Uncle Shun said respectfully, "Breakfast has been prepared. In addition, the morning class at the Academy is about to begin. Miss Su Tang should be arriving soon!"
"Hmm?" Chen Yu turned his head and saw a flirtatious figure walking into the yard with big steps. Wasn't it Su Tang?
After all, she hadn't been back for more than half a month. After taking Chen Yu to familiarize with the new residence yesterday, Su Tang took a taxi home and arranged to take Chen Yu to the Martial Arts Academy to visit the morning class this morning!
The Martial Arts Palace would conduct morning lessons before daybreak. During the morning class, Mountain Master of the Academy and Lu Yuan, who was also the number one expert of the Academy, would patrol unhindered and give pointers to the students. Because of this, all the students would try their best to hurry to the morning class, hoping to get a word or two from Lu Yuan that would benefit them greatly!
In the morning class, it was also the best for newcomers like Chen Yu to familiarize themselves with the Martial Arts Palace. That was why Su Tang made such an agreement.
Chen Yu waved at Su Tang and couldn't help but take a second look at Uncle Shun. Considering how accurate Su Tang's timing was, it could be seen how astute Uncle Shun's mind was!
"Are you ready to go?" Su Tang asked Chen Yu with a smile.
"Wait a moment, let me eat something!"
After breakfast, Chen Yu walked out of the small courtyard in contrast to Su Tang, who was wearing a white warrior uniform. He was wearing a black warrior uniform as he walked towards the Martial Arts Palace at the end of the street.
"Lu Mountain Master traveled around the Southern Wasteland in his early years. He was experienced and knowledgeable, and his strength was extraordinary. After he returned to Minglan, he took responsibility for nurturing the younger generation of martial artists!" "The Martial Arts Palace was created by Mountain Master. In the beginning, Su Family did not want to invest resources to build a school, because Su Family had its own legacy, and there is a elder in the clan who specializes in instructing the younger generation!"
"Lu Mountain Master couldn't get support from Su Family, so he started his own school. It had only been a few years, but there were already several disciples that had stood out and made a name for themselves. Therefore, Su Family had no choice but to attach importance to him. He was invited to be the guest elder for Su Family, and be given the highest treatment, as long as he specially nurtured the descendants of Su Family! In the end, Su Family agreed to Lu Mountain Master's proposal to establish a martial arts palace under the Spirit Hidden Peak! " Su Tang said confidently: "At the same time, Su Family has agreed to Lu Mountain Master's request. They have agreed to let other qualified warriors enter the academy to study and cultivate!"
Chen Yu could not help but feel deep veneration for Lu Yuan. He looked towards the Spirit Hidden Peak and said, "In that case, should all the warriors with different surnames thank Senior Lu Yuan?"
Su Tang nodded her head and said, "Lu Mountain Master is unfathomably strong. It is said that he is in no way inferior to the other three of the Five Great Patriarchs. He is only slightly weaker than the Great Elder and the Second Elder!"
Chen Yu was sincerely admiring Lu Yuan's actions. With Bloodfire Emperor's memory, Chen Yu knew how rare Lu Yuan's actions were!
For a martial artist, spending a lot of energy to help their juniors would undoubtedly cause their martial arts cultivation to stagnate. With a person like Lu Yuan at Minglan City, it was considered a blessing in disguise!
"That's not all!" Sensing Chen Yu's mood fluctuations, Su Tang continued, "Lu Mountain Master even won a placing in the city war for a warrior other than Su Family. The city war happens once every three years, and because our Minglan City have not performed well, we only have ten spots in each of our previous matches. Out of the ten slots, Su Family originally could have at most given three slots to other Martial Tao Aristocratic Family. Mountain Master fought with all his might to obtain three slots from Su Family! "
"The quota for the city war?" On the way to Ming Lan, Chen Yu got to know more about the city war from Su Tang. He also knew how precious a city war quota was. Each quota could stir up the entire Ming Lan, and they would keep playing games.
As for Lu Yuan, he did not hesitate to offend the Su Family and won three slots for the warriors from the Humble Class!
"Su Tang!" At this moment, a voice called out.
Chen Yu looked over and saw a slender young man rushing over with a movement technique. There was a faint excitement in his expression.
Su Tang turned around to take a glance and frowned.
That man was around twenty years old with a sword on his back and a smile on his face. He walked beside Su Tang and asked politely, "Su Tang, I heard that you left the Minglan City because of something. When did you return?"
"I came back yesterday!" Su Tang replied without thinking. She moved to the side, keeping a distance from the man.
"It's been so long since I've seen you, you have made me miss you so much!" The man said with a smile, "When you left, you didn't say anything. Where did you go?"
"Jiang Chen!" Su Tang abruptly stopped and said, "I don't need your permission to go where I am, do I?"
"Of course, you don't need my permission. However, we are both under the same master, so it's normal for us to be concerned about each other!"
"There's no need for you to worry, you can leave first. I have something to take care of!" Su Tang said indifferently.
Chen Yu looked Jiang Chen up and down, revealing a smile as if he was watching a show.
She didn't expect Su Tang to be like this. In the previous half month, Chen Yu felt that Su Tang was very smart, gentle but capable. It was rare for her to be like this at her age.
"What's the matter?" Su Tang obviously didn't want to go with Jiang Chen, but Jiang Chen didn't seem to understand at all. Instead, he asked with a slobbering face: "If you have something to say, just say it. I'll do it for you. I promise it will be done well!"
Su Tang could not help but have a headache.
Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh. It was unknown if this Jiang Chen was too slow or if he was doing this on purpose. It was more likely that this was the case!
"Su Tang, why don't you introduce us?" Looking at Su Tang who looked as if she couldn't be shaken off, Chen Yu smiled and stood beside Su Tang. He put his arm on Su Tang's shoulder and asked with a smile.
As Chen Yu moved, Su Tang's body slightly trembled. She subconsciously tried to move away, but stopped after a while.
Obviously, she was quite bothered by Jiang Chen. After realizing Chen Yu's intention to help her, she didn't reject his good will.
Jiang Chen's expression changed drastically. His gaze was fixated on Chen Yu's hand. If looks could give out blade qi, Chen Yu's hand would have been chopped off by him!
"Who are you?" Jiang Chen squeezed out a sentence from his mouth.
"Who am I?" Chen Yu smiled and said, "Before you ask me, shouldn't you tell me who you are first?"
"Jiang Chen of the Boulder's Castle, the direct disciple of Teacher Jun Wu Hao!" Jiang Chen said coldly.
"Never heard of it!" Chen Yu pouted and said, "Is there something you need? "No worries, you can leave now. Su Tang and I are chatting!"
"Who the hell are you?" Hearing Chen Yu's words, Jiang Chen asked with a livid expression and a sinister tone.
"Seeing that you're so sincere, I don't mind telling you my name. I'm Chen Yu from the Chen Family Fortress!" Chen Yu shrugged and said.
"A nobody. I've never heard of it. Are there any in the three hundred town castles called Chen Family Fortress?" Jiang Chen said in disdain.
"I know you've never heard of it!" Chen Yu laughed, and said: "But you will remember it very soon, because, whether it's the Chen Family Stronghold or Chen Yu, these two names are destined to resound across the entire Ming Lan Plains!"
"Ha", Jiang Chen sneered, "Arrogant! You'd better stay away from Su Tangyuan, otherwise, you'll die miserably! "
"These words should be said by me!" Chen Yu didn't seem to care about Jiang Chen's threat as he said lightly, "Stop pestering Su Tang. Otherwise, I will kill you!"
"You wait and see!" Jiang Chen was so angry that he laughed and said, "Morning class is just starting. If you have the guts, go up against me!"
"Battlestage?" Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Su Tang.
"The place where the academy's official martial arts competition will be held!" Su Tang said, "Every month, the Academy will compete for the 'Phoenix-Sprout List'. From one to ten people will have their rewards set up by Su Family together with the three great Martial Tao Aristocratic Family, encouraging the students of the Academy to practice martial arts diligently!"
Chen Yu's interest was piqued and he asked, "What reward?"
"First place will receive three bottles of True Dan; second place will receive two; third place will receive one bottle; fourth to tenth place will receive eight to three pills respectively!" Su Tang said.
Three bottles of True Dan? Chen Yu's heart suddenly skipped a beat when he heard that.
Seeing Chen Yu turn his attention away and ignore his challenge, Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel angry and shouted, "Do you dare to or not?"
Chen Yu shrugged and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of. The problem is, what are the benefits of fighting you?" With your strength, could it be that you're ranked in the top 10 of the young phoenix rankings? "
Jiang Chen's handsome face suddenly contorted because Chen Yuzheng had poked his sore spot. With his strength, he couldn't even make it onto the Phoenix-Rankings, even if he wanted to be on the rankings even in his dreams!
