Mu Hanyan didn't know what Palace Master Wei was talking about, but she guessed it was related to the colorful light on the palace gate.
The disciples who had been sent out of the hall earlier gathered together, looking at Mu Hanyan with envy in their eyes.
Soon, Mu Hanyan knew what they were envious of.
Then, one young disciple after another was sent out of the Fantasy Dragon Palace. Most of them were normal when they came out, but there were a few who, as soon as they appeared, the palace door began to flash with five-colored light. These people were all the elites among the elites.
After a moment's thought, Mu Hanyan understood that only disciples who had successfully cleared their meridians and cleansed their marrow would experience such unusual phenomena, which was obviously related to their comprehension of the laws.
"Congratulations, sir!" At this time, Huayue and Zirong stepped forward and said to Mu Hanyan sincerely. Seeing Mu Hanyan's sudden realization, they didn't need to explain too much, believing that she had already understood.
"How are you doing? Did you succeed in clearing your meridians and cleansing your marrow?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"We're almost there, halfway to success." Hua Yue and the others replied.
Mu Hanyan felt a little regretful. This opportunity to cleanse the meridians and marrow could only be obtained after the first trial in the Fantasy Dragon Palace. If she couldn't succeed this time, she would never have another chance.
"In fact, for us, this is already a great opportunity. After all, we have a great understanding of the laws of heaven and earth. In the past, we could not imagine that we would have such an opportunity in this lifetime." Hua Yue and the others said with satisfaction without any regrets.
Mu Hanyan thought about it carefully and felt relieved. Although they were talented, they were of commoner origin after all. No matter their skills or resources, there was a huge gap between them and the children of aristocratic families. It was enough to be proud of such an achievement.
Although they missed this opportunity, the path of cultivation is indeed bumpy and rugged, but it also has unlimited opportunities. As long as they work hard, there will be many more opportunities in the future.
Soon, everyone left the Fantasy Dragon Palace and the palace door closed again.
"Guan Shanhe, Qi Kaiyuan, Jiang Qiling, Yue Fanchen, Yan Yuchu, Mu Hanyan... sixteen of you stay, and the rest of you can go." Palace Master Wei read out the names of sixteen people in total, and asked them to stay. The other disciples obeyed his orders and dispersed.
Mu Hanyan took a quick look and found that she had met most of these sixteen people before. All of them were elites in the enrollment election. Even Mu Chengxuan, a fellow clan member, and Yan Yuchu, an old friend, were among them. There were also a few unfamiliar ones, but there was no doubt that their qualifications and strength were not inferior to theirs.
"I believe you have all heard about the freshman competition. The sixteen of you have successfully completed the meridian cleansing and marrow cleansing. According to the academy rules, you will participate in the competition. The date is in three days. I hope you will practice well in the next few days, conserve your energy, and don't embarrass your instructor." After Palace Master Wei finished speaking, he waved his hand and ordered everyone to leave.
Mu Hanyan then realized that not every new disciple was eligible to participate in the freshman competition.
"Mu Hanyan, don't forget what I said." Jiang Qiling looked at Mu Hanyan and said in a low voice.
"Yes, and you should remember what I said." Mu Hanyan nodded and said.
"This time, you will never be my opponent." Jiang Qiling said confidently.
The two looked at each other and left.
"Mu Hanyan, I hope we still have a chance to fight this time." Yue Fanchen then said to Mu Hanyan.
"Oh, wasn't the lesson I taught you last time enough?" Mu Hanyan was not so polite when facing Yue Fanchen.
"Do you really think that I will reveal all my strength in the admissions election?" Yue Fanchen said with a faint smile.
Mu Hanyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she thought of something.
"Okay, you'd better pray that you don't meet me, otherwise, you will never have the good luck you had last time." Yue Fanchen smiled confidently and left.
Why are they all so confident, making me sound like a soft persimmon to be squeezed at will? Mu Hanyan shook her head, nodded to Yan Yuchu, and returned to the Sword Valley. Because of the current complex relationship between the Mu and Yan families, it was not appropriate for them to have too much interaction.
She was thinking about this question all the way, and suddenly realized that this freshman competition might not be as easy as she thought.
From a distance, she could smell the tempting aroma of food. Although her strength had reached Mu Hanyan's level, it wouldn't be a problem for her to go without food or water for ten days or half a month. If she had the support of elixirs, she could go on a fast for a longer period of time. But the feeling of being hungry was never pleasant. Smelling the aroma, Mu Hanyan couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
In the courtyard, a large table had been set up, filled with delicious food that was so delicious and mouth-watering. Having been hungry for days, everyone didn't hesitate to pick up their chopsticks and began to feast.
"Sir, I heard that the people who will participate in the freshman competition in three days have been decided. There are sixteen people in total." After eating and drinking, Jiang Yuzhe said excitedly to Mu Hanyan.
"Well, they are all new disciples who have successfully completed the meridian and marrow cleansing trial in the Fantasy Dragon Palace." Mu Hanyan said.
"I heard that in this freshman competition, the college will give out an ancient treasure as a reward. It's much richer than before. I wonder who will get it in the end." Tang Bufan said with fascination.
With his qualifications, being able to join Longyan College and even have the opportunity to go to the Fantasy Dragon Palace for trial was already a huge surprise and joy. How could he dare to hope for any freshman competition, let alone any ancient treasures.
"Nonsense, who else could it be except you? Even Yue Fanchen is not your opponent, let alone others?" Jiang Yuzhe has always been a fanatical admirer of Miss Mu, and he disagrees with Tang Bufan's words.
"I don't think it's that easy. Although you defeated Yue Fanchen in the enrollment election, I heard that in the enrollment election in the next two days, there will also be elites from other countries' families who will participate. Among them is one named Nan Aotian, who is a direct descendant of the Nan family, one of the seven major families in Western Qin. He is extremely powerful and may not be inferior to Yue Fanchen. Moreover, Longyan Academy has been a place where many talented people have hidden since ancient times. It is regarded as a holy place by all the practitioners in Anyun. Who knows what kind of powerful people are hidden among the others." Hua Yue shook her head and said cautiously.
"Although Yue Fanchen was defeated by the adults, I always feel that his strength is still hidden, and we can't underestimate him. In addition, Jiang Qiling is too scheming, and maybe she is not as simple as she seems." Zirong added.
"Zirong is right. Yue Fanchen came to Longyan College probably for other purposes. He may not have shown his full strength in the enrollment election. Jiang Qiling should not be underestimated." Mu Hanyan deeply agreed with Zirong's guess.
She still clearly remembered that when she first met Longya and the others and fought with them, he had formed a hand seal, and an aura that made even her feel uneasy emerged from him, but he was later stopped by Yue Fanchen and did not attack. Based on this speculation, Yue Fanchen's strength must also be hidden.
