Chapter 8, next, get out!

  Last time, the book said that Liu Bei led... uh, Night Frost and a group of five people to head north, after ten days and nights of rushing, they finally arrived at the gate of Blue Ice City this morning.

  The city wall is fifty meters high, the ancient city gate is majestic, a few people are fighting on both sides of the city gate, with a pair of horses on each side, patrolling.

  The two guards exchanged a glance and led Night Fragrance and the other two towards the city gate.

  At this time, one of the soldiers stopped them with ill intentions, "Halt! Undergo inspection!"

  One of the guards suddenly flared up upon hearing this, "Inspection? What's there to inspect during wartime?"

  Another soldier walked over. "Hey, what's going on? You don't want to be inspected, you must have a problem!" With that, he waved his hand and instantly the soldiers at the city gate surrounded the five of them, drawing their swords. Ye Feng and Bai Yu had never seen such a scene before, and they involuntarily shrank back behind the two guards. But Xu Jian's expression didn't change, his heart didn't skip a beat... I don't know what he was thinking in his heart.

  The guard who had just spoken was red with rage, his hand raised and pointing at the soldier. He was about to say something when another guard beside him suddenly pressed his hand down. He shook his head gently towards him, walked slowly in front of the soldier, and secretly stuffed a bag into his arms. "Sir, my brother doesn't understand, we are willing to accept the inspection."

  The soldier secretly weighed it and said with satisfaction, "You're quite good, alright, let him go!"

  As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, the soldiers surrounding them suddenly retreated backward one by one, looking like they were quite practiced at it.

  Another guard wanted to say something, but the previous guard pulled him back and gave him a cold look, so he didn't dare speak again, huffing with anger.

  Five people walked into the city, only to see people coming and going on the streets, with all sorts of small stalls lined up on both sides. The three young ones were still childish at heart, looking at this and touching that, and soon forgot about what had just happened. Only the guard was indignant, "Big brother, why did you give money to that mongrel! When have we ever suffered such humiliation! A small soldier dared to speak to me like that. With one wave of my hand, I can wipe out a whole group of them!"

  "That brother-like guard said, 'Have you forgotten? The task the clan leader gave us was only to escort Young Master, I don't want to cause trouble'."

  "But..."

  "Let's just forget about it!"

  The big brother-like guard ignored him and grabbed a passerby, "Excuse me, sir, could you tell me where the Divine Wind Academy is?"

  That person looked at him and said, "You're not from around here, are you? Sending your kid to school? This college started accepting people two days ago, but it's a five-day process. It's not too late, locals all know it's in..."

  He gave an address, thanked the guard and left.

  The five of them set off again... (Why did I use "again")

  The place that person mentioned wasn't far away, but Night Frost and White Feather were new to such a big city and couldn't help feeling excited, looking around here and there, so they didn't walk quickly. Xu Jian, the young master who had been dressed in finery and fed delicacies since childhood, hadn't seen this kind of scene before either, and the three of them got more and more playful, with the result that what was originally an hour's journey dragged on from morning till noon before they finally found this Divine Wind Academy.

  When they first saw the Divine Wind Academy, all five of them were stunned. It was a dilapidated small house with a sign hanging from the roof that had a corner missing and read "Divine Wind Academy Recruitment Office". From the entrance, there was a long queue of people, all parents and children. The five of them looked at each other in dismay, wondering how long they would have to wait! It seemed like there were at least a thousand people, not counting the parents, but even if you didn't count them, there were still several hundred kids.

  No choice, let's queue up slowly. The calmer guard sighed and said, "Brother, don't cause trouble, I'll go buy some food, you and the young master wait in line for me, don't forget the clan leader's words." What could he do? He actually wanted to rush past directly, but the clan leader had said that the dean was "very difficult to deal with", so it's better to be more restrained. The guard also knew not to be too reckless here and nodded in agreement.

  ……

  About an hour later, they finally saw a glimmer of hope. Although there were still more than 20 children left, the efficiency in that room was quite fast. From time to time, sounds could be heard coming from inside the room.

  "Next! Get out! Next! Get out!......" Before long, it was their turn. Another disheartened parent walked out with his child, and the five of them voluntarily walked in.

  All that could be seen was a slovenly middle-aged man sitting in the house with a listless expression, next to him stood a child of about ten years old, standing straight as a pen, with an air of pride in his eyes that seemed to be carved into his bones, but not in a way that was overbearing. After sizing up the five people, he didn't look at them again. The slovenly middle-aged man weakly shouted, "Next! Get out... Hmm? Not bad."

  He glanced at the three Ye Feng and said, "These three kids are not bad." The two guards looked stern, this middle-aged man couldn't see their strength! The calmer guard took a deep breath, "You're the principal of Shenfeng Academy, right? We are..."

  But the middle-aged man suddenly interrupted him, "I am not the dean! I don't need to know who you are, since you sent the child here, you don't need to take care of it anymore! Just stay for now and wait over there!" He pointed to the corner of the wall.

  That hot-tempered guard took a step forward, "I've long heard that the Shenfeng Academy produces talented people one after another. I hope the senior won't be stingy with his teachings!" As he spoke, he threw a punch directly at the middle-aged man's face! The other guard didn't stop him, he also wanted to see how deep this person was. That middle-aged man sneered and hummed a sound, then suddenly disappeared from in front of the guard, who only felt his eyes daze for a moment before his abdomen took two hits, then his neck suddenly felt cold, and before he could react, his legs transmitted a huge force that he couldn't control, causing him to fall down. Then, he felt his chest sink, and found that the sloppy middle-aged man had one foot trampling on his chest, looking at him with a sneer.

  Another guard was shocked, "This... senior, let's just forget it...", he was really getting a bit flustered, earlier even he couldn't keep up with the middle-aged man's speed, only vaguely seeing a few moves. Ye Feng's three children and the child standing in the corner were all stunned, they only saw the guard throw a punch at his opponent then suddenly get kicked in the chest.

  The middle-aged man raised his foot, "Twelfth rank intermediate... Hmph, don't think that just because you have some power you can be arrogant, there are many people in this world that you can't afford to offend."

  "That's what the senior taught!" The guard thought to himself, "Indeed, the water is very deep." He helped up another guard and the one who fell to the ground had a complex expression, it was unclear what he was thinking.

  Ye Feng looked around and stepped forward, saying to the slovenly middle-aged man, "Uncle, I have a letter here that is for the principal." At this time, Xu Jian also reacted, "I do too! I do too!"

  The middle-aged man was taken aback, "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

  "Can we see the principal then?"

  The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Of course! However... wait till tonight, after I've collected everything from everyone!" After that, he ignored them and sat back down on the stool, "Next! Get out! Next! Get out..."

  Five people found a corner and stood there, Bai Yu silently not speaking, Ye Feng's eyes flickering as he looked at the middle-aged man. Xu Jian pulled two guards, "Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu is he okay? That uncle was really fierce earlier, if you were to replace Uncle Xu could you beat that person..."

  The two bodyguards were speechless. This young master didn't even remember their names, and called everyone Uncle Xu (the Xu family, after all, they all shared the surname Xu).

  At this time, Bai Yu suddenly walked over to a boy in another corner, stretched out his hand and said, "My name is Bai Yu, let's be friends."

  The boy silently looked at Bai Yu, "Chu Ba Tian", but didn't go to take Xiao Bai's hand, and Bai Yu also didn't mind, naturally putting his hand back, nodded, and went back...
