Gu Yuyao tossed the wriggling Zhao Ziyi out of his arms and took the white jade box.
"Hmph, I'm taking care of Zhao Ziyi not for your reward, but since you're so kind, I'll accept it."
Gu Yuyao didn't rush to look at the white jade box, but instead took the box in her hand.
Song Chen is still just a mortal, and the gifts he gives are probably just ordinary things. Accepting the white jade box is merely a representation of his attitude.
On behalf of Zhao Ziyi's family, this action can be seen as an acknowledgment of the marriage between Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi.
Zhao Ziyi knew that Song Chen had passed Gu Yuyao's notice.
Their marriage was blessed.
The three of them stood together, discussing Song Chen's application to the university.
At this moment, the surrounding cultivators all looked at Song Chen with envy.
—Why is this pretty boy named Song Chen marrying into the family?
—Look at that handsome face, you can tell at a glance that he's a gigolo, actually seducing students from Xianheyuan.
—What's the point of hooking up with students? The examiners won't go easy on him. When it's time for the assessment, we'll report this kid for using connections!
Gu Yuyao frowned and said:
"The sword cultivator assessment is the most rigorous. Song Chen doesn't even have a sword. How can you expect him to take the sword cultivator assessment?"
If Song Chen misses the opportunity to enter the academy this time, he will be too old to enter the academy in the future.
How is Song Chen supposed to cultivate in the future?
Did you steal the secret manual from school and give it to him?
Zhao Ziyi: "..."
He didn't think that much about it.
"What side job does Song Chen specialize in? Tell me and I'll give you some advice."
Song Chen hesitated for a moment, then honestly replied:
"I have some understanding of the remaining seven professions. I read a lot of books and consciously search for such books. But the only one I have actually tried is planting."
Gu Yuyao frowned and said:
"Recently, there aren't enough hilltops to go around, and the planters are almost fighting over a single plot of land."
If you choose to become a planter, you might face even harsher treatment after entering the academy.
Zhao Ziyi raised an eyebrow and said:
"If that's the case, then let Song Chen take the exam to become a weapon refiner!"
That smoky, fiery place has few people, so the number of competitors each year isn't high.
This is a good idea. The two agreed that Song Chen should apply to the Weapon Forging Academy.
Let's get into the academy first. If the academy isn't suitable later, we can still adjust.
Song Chen had no other objections. He used his spiritual energy to erase the words "Sword Pure" from the registration form and filled in "Weapon Refining".
After submitting their registration forms, the three of them randomly found a place to sit on the ground.
It's not that they don't want to find a secluded place.
There are just too many people in this place.
Everywhere was packed with people, and there were even groups of people sitting on the ground.
The valley was originally very large, but now a group of people were sitting on the ground, and another group of people were flying on swords in the air and mid-air.
Gu Yuyao said sarcastically:
"Those idiots who try to fly, they run out of spiritual energy before even reaching the assessment, what's the point of showing off like that!"
Song Chen remained silent, feeling that some of Gu Yuyao's words must have been taught to him by Zhao Ziyi.
Zhao Ziyi and Gu Yuyao chatted, intentionally bringing up some things within the academy.
Song Chen listened silently.
The other monks around also pricked up their ears to listen.
For a moment, only the voices of Zhao Ziyi and Gu Yuyao could be heard within a hundred meters.
Suddenly, a voice came from above:
"Gu Yuyao! What are you holding in your hand? Give it to me right now! Senior Brother is waiting to be saved!"
Song Chen turned around abruptly. He thought it was Mu Feng from the voice.
At that moment, a figure swiftly descended from the cliff, appearing before the three with agile movements.
Without saying a word, he tried to snatch the white jade box from Gu Yuyao's hand.
Zhao Ziyi quickly blocked it, "Zou Sheng! What do you mean? This was given to Gu Yuyao by Song Chen!"
The newcomer paused for a moment, then bypassed Zhao Ziyi and continued to attack Gu Yuyao.
As Zou Sheng snatched the white jade box, he shouted:
"Gu Yuyao! You're a disgrace to be a disciple of the Pill Academy!"
They actually colluded with outsiders to steal the spiritual herbs from the Pill Academy. Inside this jade box is a 50-year-old Fire Refining Grass!
These are spiritual herbs that have been kept in the medicine pavilion of the alchemy academy for years and cannot be taken at will.
You actually stole! Go to the court and confess your crime right now!
Gu Yuyao stared coldly at Zou Sheng, showing no mercy as she struck. "Nonsense! What crime have I confessed to?"
Zhao Ziyi and Song Chen wanted to step forward and help.
As soon as the two summoned their flying swords and longbows, they were bound together with the Immortal Binding Rope by the law enforcement officers who arrived shortly afterward.
The law enforcers are members of the Law Enforcement Hall, and they are all students with cultivation levels above the Golden Core stage.
Bound by the rope, no matter how much they struggled, they couldn't untie themselves.
"Yaoyao! Watch out!"
Seeing that Gu Yuyao was about to be hurt, Zhao Ziyi quickly reminded him.
At this moment, the Enforcement Hall intervened again.
They saved Gu Yuyao.
A moment later.
The four people were tied up like rice dumplings and hung in mid-air.
Song Chen's face turned ashen. It was happening again. He was powerless to resist a powerful opponent!
He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths.
He was used to this kind of thing.
Deep down, he kept comforting himself with the books he had read before.
[Excessive rigidity leads to breakage; before becoming truly powerful, one must learn to regulate one's emotions.]
When Song Chen opened his eyes again, there was no longer any anger in them.
The three people behind him continued to make noise, while the crowd below the valley buzzed with discussion about how things were going.
Song Chen looked at the man in mid-air.
The man had his hands behind his back, flying through the air, dressed in a black outfit, his Taoist robe fluttering slightly with the spiritual energy.
He wore a full-face mask with the character "法" (law) written on it.
Song Chen sent a telepathic message to Zhao Ziyi, asking him to calm down.
Zhao Ziyi then fell silent.
The other two also shut up.
When the four people hanging stopped making noise.
The buzzing sound below also disappeared.
The only sound echoing in the valley was the voice of the law enforcement officers.
"Now that you've had enough arguing, let's talk about why you're disrupting the academy's recruitment process!"
