"So, sister, which one do you want to choose?"
"Let's take Xuanyuan Zhong. He has business experience and can learn alchemy. His character seems okay and he's very smart. He should be able to adapt quickly to the highly competitive environment in Zhongzhou."
"What a coincidence! My choice is the same as yours. Xuanyuan Ming is annoying to look at. He has all kinds of little tricks up his sleeve. I can tell at a glance that he'll cause a lot of trouble in the future and will even drag us down with him. We absolutely can't have people like him."
"And that Xuanyuan Xian, she doesn't have any special skills, she's just ordinary. She can avoid danger, which is an advantage, but she always hides. She's a bit too cowardly."
"As for the other spiritual masters, don't worry about them. They will be crushed if they go. They may encounter other troubles along the way, and we may even need to take care of them."
"Then choose Xuanyuan Bell, sister."
"That's him. I hope he won't let us down in Yuntian College."
Gu Lingyan and Gu Lingfeng communicated with each other and discussed who to choose. In the end, they both agreed and chose Xuanyuan Zhong.
After several people came out, they clearly felt that their mental strength had increased slightly. They could feel the things around them more clearly and knew their bottlenecks more clearly, which made it easier for them to advance.
However, the few spiritualists who could not hold on for long did not feel any benefit at all.
"Now that you have all finished the test, Yan'er, Feng'er, have you made your choice?" Gu Shenghao asked directly. Gu Lingyan and Gu Lingfeng told the emperor and the princes and princesses that the decision-making power was in the hands of his son and daughter.
"General Gu, shouldn't this spot be given to the winner?" Xuanyuan Ming was very dissatisfied. He was the first in the test, and if he was not qualified, who else would be qualified? But he was also afraid that he would not get this spot, so he put forward his own idea.
"Didn't I tell you during your test that even the winner wouldn't necessarily get the spot?"
"Yes," Xuanyuan Ming lowered his voice.
After feeling the tangible benefits, Xuanyuan Ming became even more unwilling to give up, as he might lose this opportunity.
Suddenly he remembered that he had been to the auction house with General Gu’s children before, and maybe he could let them choose him.
"Sister Yan'er, Lingfeng, you will definitely choose me, right? Last time we went to the auction house together, I bought a lot of things for you." Xuanyuan Ming looked at Gu Lingyan and Gu Lingfeng hopefully.
The remaining few people had a bad feeling when they heard Xuanyuan Ming's words.
"Hey, Tenth Prince, this is a bit unkind of you. Does the General's Mansion need those things from you? Is it necessary to bring it up?" Xuanyuan Zhong immediately stopped Xuanyuan Ming when he heard what he said.
"That's right, Tenth Brother, you shouldn't always bring up this matter. I'm afraid this is the only thing you can talk about." Xuanyuan Xian knew that the brother and sister of the Gu family had always lived in seclusion.
Even if they came out, it was just for training and they never communicated with them, so they rarely had contact with the brother and sister.
"Although I am not ranked first, you can't ask Miss Gu to favor you so blatantly." Xuanyuan An also found fault with Xuanyuan Ming because he also particularly needed this opportunity.
[This Xuanyuan An is not hopeless. At least there is still a little hope.]
Gu Lingyan nodded secretly in her heart.
As for the other few people, they knew in their hearts that they probably wouldn't be elected either, so they didn't interrupt to avoid being hated.
Gu Lingyan glanced at Xuanyuan Ming, expressing her disdain, and said directly.
"Father and Mother, my brother and I unanimously chose the Ninth Prince Xuanyuan Zhong. We believe his performance is remarkable, he is intelligent, and he possesses a unique skill."
"In that case, you have no objection, right? If you do, just keep it to yourself." Gu Shenghao made the decision immediately because he had just discussed it with Bai Fengdie and felt that the Xuanyuan Bell was indeed okay.
"Wait, why not me?" Xuanyuan Ming spoke again.
"Why? Of course it's because the quota is in our hands. We can give it to whoever we want. Is that reason enough?" Gu Lingfeng didn't indulge him. He said that the person who wins in the end may not necessarily get the quota, but Xuanyuan Ming seemed not to understand what people said and kept nagging and complaining.
"You will regret it, humph." After Xuanyuan Ming made these harsh words, he immediately turned around and walked out of the general's mansion.
But after he walked out, he immediately regretted it.
[Damn it, why was I so impulsive? They still have the quota. Ah, how stupid.]
"This rebellious son, General Gu, I will deal with him properly when I get back," Xuanyuan Jia tried to smooth things over.
"This child has personality," Bai Fengdie said with a smile.
Xuanyuan Jia looked embarrassed. After all, it was his child and he would be ashamed if he did such a thing.
"Congratulations, Ninth Brother, this is truly a cause for celebration."
"Congratulations to my ninth brother for getting a place at Yuntian Academy."
“.......”
When the princes and princesses heard that the final spot went to Xuanyuan Zhong, although they were very disappointed, it was much better than if the spot had gone to Xuanyuan Ming.
It is obvious that Xuanyuan Ming is a failure as a human being. None of his brothers and sisters approve of him, which shows that he has done many things to offend others.
"I'll give you 8 days to prepare your farewell. You'll depart for Yuntian Academy in 8 days. As for the keepsake, I'll give it to you when you depart."
Gu Shenghao had already written another letter to the wine master of Yuntian College, saying that adding one more person was just a matter of a word from him.
"Since the matter has been decided, I will not keep you here any longer." It was obvious that Gu Shenghao was about to kick people out.
"Ah! Yes, yes, then we won't disturb General Mu's family of four. We'll leave now," Xuanyuan Jia also spoke quickly.
"Gu Yang, have you prepared tea for the emperor?" Gu Shenghao did not forget to prepare spiritual tea for Xuanyuan Jia.
"Master, it's ready. I'll get it right away."
"General Gu is so thoughtful, so I won't refuse."
"Your Majesty, I will see you off."
Xuanyuan Jia didn't refuse. How could he just leave without someone to see him off? This would lower his own style. He didn't ask Gu Shenghao to send him off. If the whole family sent him off, he should at least have a housekeeper to send him off.
It was obvious that Xuanyuan Jia had lost his temper because of this family and didn't dare to be angry.
"Let's go, follow me back to the palace"

"Young Master, what's going on with the Gu family today? They've come to the front yard. The emperor of Tiancheng Kingdom and his children..."
"I'm here, and the servants in the general's mansion haven't heard any news. Could something big happen?"
"Nothing serious, just Yan'er and Ling Feng are going to Yuntian College."
"Yuntian College? What place is that?" Su Yu said he didn't know.
"I don't know, why don't you check it out right away?"
"Yes, I'll go right away."
At the same time, all the major families in the imperial capital knew that the emperor had brought his children to the general's mansion. They were all speculating that something big had happened and were sending people to inquire.
There were obviously more pedestrians on the street, all of them were people from major families who came out to inquire about the news.
