“Emperor’s Pass!” Li Qingshan said softly.
“You’re from the Emperor’s Pass?” The young black man said in surprise. His voice immediately attracted the attention of many. Everyone looked at Li Qingshan with curiosity.
The young black man realized he had spoken too loudly, and pulled Li
Qingshan aside as he whispered, “I’m sorry.”
Li Qingshan shook his head calmly and said, “It doesn’t matter. Where are you from?”
The young black man introduced himself while patting his chest, “I’m from the
Barbarian Clan. My name is A’man. This is my first time leaving the clan.”
“Why did you come to the Celestial Court Academy?” Li Qingshan asked curiously. He didn’t expect to meet a member of the Barbarian Clan.
In the vast Immortal Plane where countless clans existed, and the Barbarian Clan was one of them. They had once produced peak experts.
A’man said, “Our clan has a quota to enter the Celestial Court Academy every ten years. This time, I managed to get the quota, so I came.”
Li Qingshan suddenly realized that this was the case. It was probably a kind of benefit given to the Barbarian Clan by the Celestial Court.
“Brother, I heard that Emperor’s Pass is currently in a big battle, how did you get here?” A’man asked curiously.
Li Qingshan raised his eyebrows and said, “You know about the war in Emperor’s Pass?”
“The Celestial Court issued a public announcement. They said the three clans joined forces to attack us. How shameless. That Hell has always wanted to come to the Immortal Plane and seize our territory, ” A’man said indignantly.
Li Qingshan explained, “There was a war. But the troops have retreated. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to get out.”
“It’s fine as long as the troops are withdrawn. When I graduate, I’ll join the army and fight those bastards,” A’man said angrily.
Li Qingshan found that A’man was very cute. Perhaps it was because he had always been in the clan, A’man had a strong sense of identity with the Celestial Court and a sense of justice.
“What is everyone waiting for?” Li Qingshan looked around and asked curiously.
“We’re all waiting for the Celestial Court Academy to open. It’ll open soon,”
A’man said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the void in front of the cliff suddenly split open like a door, and an extended stone bridge appeared.
The moment the stone bridge appeared, the people who were waiting immediately went up and entered this middle world.
A’man said to Li Qingshan, “Let’s go in.”
Li Qingshan followed them and walked onto the stone bridge, entering the Celestial Court Academy.
At first, it was very narrow and only allowed one person through. After walking a dozen steps, it suddenly opened up.
The land is flat and spacious, and the houses are solemn. There are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees, and bamboo trees. The paths crossed, and the sounds of chickens and dogs could be heard. The people who came and went in the village were all engaged in farming, and men and women dressed like ordinary people. Yellow hair drooping down, they were all joyful and carefree.
It was like a utopia.
In the distance, there were green mountains, courtyards, pavilions, waterfalls…
There were fertile fields, beautiful ponds, bamboo forests, chickens, and dogs nearby…
At a glance, one’s heart felt open and broad.
“Students who are enrolled in this semester, please come forward and register.” Not far away, a scholar shouted from the fertile fields. He stretched out his hand to beckon everyone to go over.
Everyone walked over one after another and shuttled through the fields. When they arrived here, there was no dispute. They lined up one by one, hundreds of people forming a long line.
“Show me your admission notices and identity tokens. Both are indispensable!” The scholar held a jade book in his hand. He checked the identity of the first person. After making sure that there was no mistake, he touched the jade book and a holographic image appeared on it. It was the residence of the Celestial Court Academy.
“Choose your accommodation. You will live here for the next five years!” The scholar said.
The first person reached out and made his choice.
The scholar immediately marked out this residence. Then, he stretched out his hand and wiped it, and this residence disappeared from the screen.
“Next!” Scholar shouted.
After repeating this process for less than half an hour, it was Li Qingshan’s turn.
Li Qingshan took out his admission invitation and identity token.
The scholar checked to make sure that there were no mistakes. At the same time, he said, “You may also choose a place to stay!”
Li Qingshan looked at the residences on the screen. Most of them were gathered together and were very luxurious. They had their own courtyards and were located in the center of the Academy.
Li Qingshan didn’t like crowded places. It was inconvenient for him to cultivate slowly. He chose a mountain peak. There was a vast bamboo forest, a waterfall, and a view of the turbulent sea of clouds. It was a perfect place to avoid disturbance.
Just like the Repentance Cliff, it was very much to Li Qingshan’s liking.
The scholar was surprised by Li Qingshan’s choice and said, “Aren’t you going to live in the central area?”
Li Qingshan shook his head and replied, “I don’t like noise!”
Seeing this, the scholar didn’t ask further. He had received many students and knew that some of them were a little eccentric.
Li Qingshan walked to the side. The next one was A’man.
When it was A’man’s turn to choose his accommodation, he also chose the wilderness, not far from Li Qingshan, halfway up the mountain.
Li Qingshan was at the top of the mountain, and A’man was halfway up the mountain.
“Why didn’t you choose the central area?” Li Qingshan waited for A’man to come over and asked curiously.
“I grew up in the mountains and I’m not used to living there. I wanted to stay with you at the top of the mountain, but you said you didn’t like the noise, so I chose to stay halfway up the mountain,” A’man said.
Li Qingshan smiled.
The scholar soon registered everyone. Then, in front of everyone, he said earnestly, “First of all, welcome to the Celestial Court Academy. I’m the guide teacher who will receive your batch of students. My name is Zhou Shusheng. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I’ll clarify them for you..”
