"Where is this girl from? She's so amazing."
"The water spell she cast just now, with that pure spiritual power fluctuation, shows that she is at least a fourth-level magician."
"Tsk tsk, she is beautiful and smart, she is really smart."
Seeing that Zhao Linger solved the problem in just two or three moves, the young heroes who were watching all stared at her with burning eyes.
There were even some shameless people who came up and tried to strike up a conversation.
However, Zhao Linger remained unmoved and turned towards Lin Hao.
"Why are you here?" Zhao Linger asked.
She was surprised that Lin Hao appeared here.
After all, Tianwu City is quite a distance away from the imperial capital, but Lin Hao, a blind man, can reach here.
"We had an agreement, how can I not come?"
Lin Hao smiled calmly and didn't say anything.
Agreement?
What agreement?!
Hearing the conversation between Lin Hao and Zhao Linger, the young people around were stunned and couldn't help but become curious.
Only then did they realize that the two knew each other.
Thinking of this, everyone began to envy Lin Hao for being able to meet such a beautiful woman.
"If you mean it, then it's up to you."
Zhao Linger frowned slightly. She naturally knew what the agreement Lin Hao was talking about was.
She had said at the beginning that as long as Lin Hao passed the assessment of Tianyan Academy, they would not get divorced.
This requirement, if you are a capable genius, is almost easy to fulfill.
But in Zhao Linger's opinion, even if Lin Hao really has a natural talent for animal taming, there is no hope.
Because the assessment of Tianyan Academy is mainly based on personal strength, rather than relying on the power of pets.
Therefore, there is no hope at all.
Their marriage will eventually end here.
"In that case, let's go together."
Lin Hao smiled and suggested.
Although he had no feelings for this wife who had never entered the bridal chamber with him, Lin Hao felt a little fond of her because she had dared to come forward to help him just now.
"Go together?" Zhao Linger looked at Lin Hao puzzledly.
"I'm blind. Do you think I know the way to Tianyan Academy?"
Lin Hao spread his hands and said deliberately: "I asked you to go with me, of course it's to help me lead the way, is there any other meaning?"
Hearing this, Zhao Linger's face was stunned. She was undoubtedly being confronted and couldn't say anything back.
"Okay, follow me."
In order to make Lin Hao admit defeat sincerely, she had no choice but to nod and choose to help him again.
After saying that, Zhao Linger turned around and was about to walk towards the city gate when she suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder.
"What are you going to do?"
Her body trembled slightly, and she suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Hao behind her. There seemed to be a hint of shyness in her cold eyes.
There is no doubt that this dirty hand belongs to Lin Hao.
"If I don't hold you down, how can I tell which direction you're going?"
Lin Hao asked back confidently.
"This kid actually..."
"What is the relationship between him and that beautiful lady?!"
When they saw Lin Hao's hand on Zhao Linger's shoulder, the young men's eyes widened immediately.
That ambiguous action undoubtedly made them full of envy and a hint of jealousy.
Faced with the strange looks around her, Zhao Linger felt both ashamed and angry.
"Take this!"
Then she bit her red lips and took out a blue belt from the space ring.
Lin Hao knew when to stop and held the other end of the belt, letting Zhao Linger lead the way.
Just like that, under the gaze of everyone, Lin Hao was led out of the city gate by Zhao Linger.
"Tsk, it turns out to be a blind man, I thought he was some kind of person."
"What? A blind man wants to take part in the Tianyan Academy exam. How bizarre."
"It's more than just bizarre. It can be said to be the first case in the history of Tianyan Academy's admissions examination, haha."
When they found out that Lin Hao was blind, the crowd was undoubtedly shocked.
Amid the surprised discussions, there was undisguised contempt and ridicule.
After the little episode, everyone dispersed with little interest.
Those young candidates also swarmed out of the city gate and ran towards the back mountain outside the city.
That is where Tianyan Academy is located.
A journey of a hundred miles may seem far for an ordinary person, but those who can come here to participate in the assessment are all young talents with some skills.
During this run, almost no one stopped to rest, as everyone was in great physical condition.
Along the way, under the guidance of Zhao Linger, Lin Hao felt extremely comfortable and even turned off the shared vision of the four treasures.
In an instant, Lin Hao's eyes fell into darkness, and he quietly enjoyed the strange feeling of being led by his beautiful wife.
"I'm very curious, how did you come to the imperial capital?"
Suddenly, Lin Hao heard Zhao Linger's questioning voice in front of him.
After Lin Hao pondered for a while, he casually said: "As long as you have money, you can do anything. I hired a carriage."
Zhao Linger had a calm expression and said calmly, "Is money really that important? Some more precious things cannot be bought with any amount of money."
Hearing this, Lin Hao's heart moved slightly, feeling as if there was something else behind the words.
It seems that what Zhao Linger really pursues is not the so-called money and material things, but a higher level of formalism.
It’s like the pinnacle of martial arts.
Or maybe it’s love…
Neither of these two things can be obtained by having money.
Lin Hao discovered that as they communicated, he began to understand Zhao Linger's thoughts.
And today can be said to be the time when the two of them chatted the most since they met.
No wonder they want to get a divorce.
Lin Hao suddenly understood.
After all, their marriage tied together the interests of the two families.
Now that she has access to a wider world with the help of the Tianyan Academy platform, Zhao Linger naturally does not want to be bound by the so-called monetary interests anymore.
“Money is not everything, but without money, nothing is possible.”
Lin Hao smiled calmly and expressed his opinion.
In his previous life, his family was not wealthy, and he had to calculate before buying anything, not to mention if he caught a cold or got sick, he could only wait for a few days to recover.
And now, because of the god-level evolved animal system, money is more urgent and desirable.
So in Lin Hao's opinion, given his current situation, he would definitely be back to square one if he didn't have money!
"vulgar."
Hearing Lin Hao's words, Zhao Linger said coldly.
Lin Hao curled his lips and retorted: "As the daughter of the Zhao family, you have been living a life of luxury since childhood, so naturally you don't know the importance of money."
Zhao Linger also asked back: "Is your Lin family very poor?"
“It’s not poor.”
Lin Hao's voice suddenly became low: "But if you were to experience what I experienced once, you would understand."
Hearing this, Zhao Linger's heart trembled slightly.
Suddenly, she stopped and turned to look at Lin Hao.
Yes, if she put herself in the other's shoes and experienced Lin Hao's dark and often ridiculed life, her inner world would probably have collapsed long ago.
Now that I think about it, Lin Hao might be the person who was hurt the most in this marriage.
But this guy always faced it strong and never showed any frustration.
Just as Zhao Linger was stunned, she didn't know that Lin Hao had now turned off the vision shared with Sibao. She had no idea that she suddenly stopped and bumped into him head-on.
Since Zhao Linger has a pair of long legs, her height is almost the same as Lin Hao.
Therefore, when they collided, their mouths were pressed tightly together.
When their lips touched, Lin Hao suddenly felt something soft and there was a very pleasant fragrance.
Zhao Linger opened her beautiful eyes wide and stared at the man's face so close to her. Suddenly her whole body froze and she stood there in a daze.
“Could it be…”
Lin Hao noticed something was wrong and immediately turned on the shared vision of the four treasures.
For a moment, Lin Hao saw himself and Zhao Linger kissing each other from the perspective of a third party. The scene was extremely shocking.
Looking at Zhao Linger's lips that were as pink as rose petals, Lin Hao was stunned.
Totally unexpectedly, he actually kissed Zhao Linger.
"What are you doing?!!"
At this time, Zhao Linger finally reacted.
She suddenly stepped back, staring at Lin Hao with a flushed face, her voice filled with uncontrollable shame and anger.
Lin Hao licked his lips, feeling somewhat unsatisfied, but still spread his hands and said, "How should I know? Who told you to stop suddenly?"
After hearing this, Zhao Linger suddenly felt guilty.
Her fair face became redder as the shame and anger in her heart grew stronger, and then spread to her ears and neck...
That expression makes her look like a fresh flower, beautiful and charming.
The young candidates around who witnessed the scene just now couldn't help but be stunned.
Obviously, he had never expected that a blind man could take advantage of a beautiful woman.
hateful!
I have good-looking features and am a handsome man, so why don’t I have such a good encounter!
In an instant, most of them were beating their chests and stamping their feet, holding almost the same thoughts and being extremely jealous.
That expression was as if he wanted to poke out his own eyes and then get a kiss from Zhao Linger.
Zhao Linger bit her red lips, glared at Lin Hao fiercely, then turned around and continued on her way, but her speed increased a lot.
She was feeling angry and ashamed at the moment. She was distracted by Lin Hao's words and lost her first kiss for no reason.
"It's like getting back some interest."
Looking at Zhao Linger's shameful and angry back, Lin Hao grinned and couldn't help feeling secretly happy.
Since the four treasures' shared vision had been turned on, he was able to keep up with Zhao Linger's fast walking speed.
About half an hour later.
A large group of people finally arrived at the foot of the back mountain.
Tianyan Academy is built on the mountain, and its architectural layout is like a small city.
The outer wall was extremely tall and majestic, extending to the end of the sight. A majestic aura enveloped the entire martial arts palace, making people feel daunted.
Lin Hao stood beside Zhao Linger. It was only around eight o'clock, but tens of thousands of people had already gathered here.
At first glance, people's heads were moving.
At the end in front of the crowd, there was a continuous stone staircase that was a hundred meters long.
At the top of the stone stairs stands an ancient giant stone gate, majestic and imposing.
Looking at the huge door on the stairs, the young candidates who rushed here had burning eyes and faces full of longing.
This is because, as long as one steps through that gate, one can become a student of Tianyan Academy, obtain the martial arts resources that have been passed down for thousands of years, and reach great heights in one step.
As everyone waited so eagerly, time passed slowly.
The assessment specialist of Tianyan Academy has never appeared.
Everyone's originally tense mood gradually relaxed as they waited.
"Wife, do you know what the Tianyan Academy assessment is?"
When Lin Hao was extremely bored, he started to flirt with Zhao Linger.
"Shut up!"
Zhao Linger frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Don't call me that."
“But that’s the way it is.”
Lin Hao remained silent, seeming to enjoy irritating Zhao Linger more and more.
At this time, without Zhao Linger's explanation, Lin Hao heard some relevant information from the conversations of the people around him.
"It is said that the first hurdle of each assessment is to walk up the stone stairs in front."
"Yes, as long as you can finish the journey within one stick of incense, you will be considered to have successfully passed and can enter the gate of Tianyan Academy."
"It actually takes an incense stick of time. I can climb this staircase in less than half an incense stick of time."
"Tsk, if the Tianyan Academy's assessment was so easy to pass, there wouldn't be so many people eliminated every year. Besides, after passing this level, there are more difficult assessments to come."
While waiting, everyone couldn't help but talk to kill time.
"The first hurdle is to climb the stone stairs..."
With the help of Sibao's line of sight, Lin Hao looked at the stone staircase with only a thousand steps, thinking about something.
"Is there some mechanism in the stone staircase?"
Zhao Linger blinked her beautiful eyes and asked in a low voice.
"As far as I know, there is an earth rune formation at the bottom of this stone staircase, which has the effect of suppressing gravity. Once you climb the stairs, it will be difficult to move forward."
At this time, a young man with long hair came over and stood directly next to Zhao Linger.
He had a handsome face, holding a white paper fan in his hand, and wearing a white robe, he looked very elegant.
Next to him, there were two young candidates who were like his younger brothers.
"Earth rune array?"
Zhao Linger was stunned. She didn't expect that this was only the first level and it was so difficult.
In this regard, she couldn't help but secretly feel fortunate that she was an internally recruited member and did not need to take any assessment.
Lin Hao released a wisp of mental power to sense it, and indeed found that there was a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy in the stone stairs.
That energy aura was exactly the same as the gravity armor on his body.
Apparently, just as the young man in white said, there was a gravity formation contained in the stone stairs.
"Hello, my name is Li Changfeng, may I ask your name, young lady?"
The young man in white raised a smile on his face and attempted to talk to Zhao Linger, completely ignoring Lin Hao beside him.
"Zhao Linger."
Zhao Linger had obviously encountered this situation many times. She pursed her lips slightly, not seeming rude but not seeming too intimate either.
The sense of scale is quite good.
"Zhao Linger... a nice name."
Li Changfeng clapped the paper fan in his hand and exclaimed with a smile.
That expression did not hide the admiration in his eyes at all.
"Master, Master, someone is seducing your wife."
At this moment, Sibao's strange cry suddenly sounded, and he seemed to be flapping his wings intentionally.
"wife?!"
Hearing this, Li Changfeng's eyes darkened slightly, and he finally looked straight at Lin Hao next to him, his brows slightly frowned.
Obviously, he was quite unhappy that this beautiful woman was already taken...
