C58 Shouxiaojinyuan

The Holy Flame Academy's recruitment office was located behind and outside of Jiang She Town.

There was a small hill that had risen up several dozen zhang from the ground, which was rather eye-catching. As for the top of the hill, it was as if it had been deliberately flattened by someone, revealing a flat land that was thousands of feet wide. In this flat land, there was a completely established courtyard.

This courtyard was called the Book Garden!

Shuxiang Courtyard had been situated on top of the hill for hundreds of years. Other than being the place where all the students of the Holy Flame Academy were enrolled, it had also become a place where all the students of the Holy Flame Academy had to pass through. This was the student supply station and the place where all the outsiders would enter the Holy Flame Academy.

And this time, the recruitment for new students was also taking place within the Calligraphy Incense Garden.

At this time, Qin Shaojie was already in the crowd. Looking around, there were about a hundred or so people of the same age as him, lined up orderly at the foot of the hill. It was obvious that these people held extremely strong reverence towards the Holy Flame Academy. Even though it was just outside of the Holy Flame Academy, they were still neatly dressed, and revealed expressions of reverence.

No matter what, the Holy Flame Academy was the highest cultivation institution in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, it had stood for thousands of years and had nurtured many strong warriors, one after the other. In the end, many strong warriors left the Holy Flame Academy and joined some ancient sects. Even if it wasn't good, walking out of the Holy Flame Academy could still become a target for the various great clans and families, and even the Imperial Family to rob.

It could be said that as long as one entered the Holy Flame Academy, half a step would be equivalent to stepping onto the stairs of success.

It looks like this year's students aren't weak at all.

Stretching his arms out, queuing up for others was an extremely boring and painful thing to do, but Qin Shaojie didn't have anything else he could do right now. Looking around, these youths looked to be around thirteen or fourteen years old, some of them were even older than sixteen years old, and the youngest was probably only around the age of ten. It had to be said that all of these children exuded a strong sense of childishness. After all, at their age, most of them were children who only knew how to play.

However, to be able to get a spot in the Holy Flame Academy, it was sufficient to show that their strength was not ordinary. Although everyone had restrained their auras, there were still some auras that couldn't be controlled and leaked out from time to time. Most of the auras here were Genuine Force.

It was no wonder that the Tiangyou City became weaker and weaker. A thirteen or fourteen year old Genuine Force would be considered a top genius in the Tiangyou City. However, Qin Shaojie was also very clear that this place was absolutely not where all the disciples of the Holy Flame Academy he had seen this year would come from. What really made people look forward to were the youths who obtained a placing in the Holy Flame Academy through their own strength.

Because they knew how difficult it was to struggle, they worked even harder than the others. They knew that resources were not easy to obtain, so they had even more respect for Holy Flame Academy. When these people entered the Holy Flame Academy, their strength would tend to increase and they would grow quickly.

But no matter what, Qin Shaojie knew clearly that the vast majority of the Great Yan Dynasty's elites had gathered at the Holy Flame Academy.

However, from the very beginning, Qin Shaojie had never seen Huang Shan, Qi Ming You, or Chen Yun. Qin Shaojie knew very well that these three people were the quota the Huang Family, Qi Family and Chen Family had chosen from the Tiangyou City.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for these three to not come.

He was not in a hurry to meet Qin Shaojie. This time, there were really too many people, adding on to the fact that they were not very familiar with the three people in his memories, it was rare for Qin Shaojie to manage them.

The hundreds of people lining up at the front of the line were extremely fast. After all, these people had obtained the target that the Holy Flame Academy had placed down, so as long as it fit their status, the Holy Flame Academy would not be too troubled.

In just two hours, there were only a few people left in front of Qin Shaojie.

No need to be so nervous. After I go up, I won't be in front of you anymore.

Seeing that, Qin Shaojie turned towards a little fatty and tried to tone him down. After all, ever since this little fatty stood behind him, Qin Shaojie could feel his body constantly trembling, and even the sweat was constantly flowing from his forehead. Even his heartbeat had accelerated by quite a bit.

Naturally, Qin Chu was not nervous because of the little fatty who was going to land at the Scholar's Garden to become a disciple of the Holy Flame Academy. All of this was because he knew his identity, Qin Shaojie.

Many of the youths had heard of his name, but not many had actually seen him. Furthermore, there was the Scholar's Garden in front of them. Whether or not there was a teacher from the Holy Flame Academy lingering in front of them, everyone was extremely honest and did their best not to say anything. Even those who were usually arrogant had to hide their sharpness. If he angered the Holy Flame Academy and got disqualified, it would be terrible.

But if Qin Shaojie remembered correctly, this little fatty had seen him before. And he had even seen the two men who had tried to kill him before fall in front of him.

Perhaps at his age, the little fatty had never seen a dead person before. After all, the smell of blood coming out of their mouths made his face turn pale.

Of course, those two were not killed by Qin Shaojie. Although he had a certain chance of killing one of the Genuine Force, that was only possible if he were to use his full strength and surprise attack.

It was Elder Ye whom Qin Shaojie had specially arranged to take action earlier. With Old Ye's peak of the Spirit Sea Realm, it would not be difficult for him to kill two men of the Genuine Force without anyone noticing.

But it had to be said that this method was quite effective as well. It greatly stunned the people who were secretly preparing to continue fighting. After all, as long as one was not a fool, one would know that there was definitely an expert behind Qin Shaojie.

Even the man that Qin Zhu sent was suppressing her desire to fight.

Everyone was waiting for Qin Shaojie's result in Holy Flame Academy.

As long as one was not able to enter the Holy Flame Academy, then whether it was the Qin or Qin Zhu, there were still many chances. After all, as long as one was not a fool, it was clear that it was impossible to enter the Holy Flame Academy given Qin Shaojie's situation.

Qin Shaojie was not sure if the little fatty thought that he killed the two of them, or if the little fatty knew that there was an expert protecting him from behind, but the cold killing intent that rose from the corner of Qin Shaojie's mouth in the bloody air caused the little fatty to be truly shocked.

It's okay, it's okay.

Seeing Qin Shaojie suddenly turning to speak to him, the little fatty's legs also staggered, and then he immediately waved his hands, forcefully suppressing the ripples in his heart, and said to the youth who looked to him like the god of death.

Next.

Qin Shaojie shrugged his shoulders, he no longer bothered to care about how the little fatty felt, and a middle aged man stood in front of Qin Shaojie and spoke in a low voice.

Obviously, this was Qin Shaojie.

A city, a clan, a name, and an age

The middle aged man said with an expression, but the iron scroll in his hand had caught Qin Shaojie's attention from the very beginning, the iron scroll was information about the youth carved with hundreds of indicators, but it was impossible to see with the naked eye, and could only be seen by imbuing profound energy into it and matching.

Every time a practitioner poured profound energy into it, it would not be a small consumption, but this middle-aged man was checking by himself, which showed that his strength was not weak, and was at least at the Three Spiritual Realms level.

Tiangyou City, Qin family, and Qin Shaojie, fourteen years old.

When Qin Shaojie reported his name, the little fatty behind him also shivered. However, the others who were behind him were even more surprised, and one after another, they looked over, obviously curious about Qin Shaojie and the rest.

Even the face of the middle-aged man, which had never changed, showed a trace of wrinkles. He didn't expect this fellow to actually come.

Walk up from here.

But the middle-aged man did not say much and pointed at the hill in front of Qin Shaojie with a deep voice.

The Calligraphy Incense Garden which was located at the top of the hill was around a few hundred meters old, and a first step stone stairs appeared in front of Qin Shaojie. There were about a few hundred stone stairs here and they appeared somewhat steep.

If it was an ordinary person who wanted to climb up, it would take quite a bit of physical strength.

When Qin Shaojie's gaze landed on the stone stairs, his expression did not change either. He naturally knew that this stone staircase was not a simple stone staircase. It was most likely a test of the body. After all, he had seen how difficult it was for the youths to climb up the mountain. This difficulty was not an act.

If you don't, then you don't have the qualifications to report.

The middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something, and once again spoke mechanically to Qin Shaojie. This sentence caused many of the youths standing in line behind him to look over.

Hm!

After Qin Shaojie nodded, he did not say anything else and headed towards the stone stairs.

Was it really supported by gravity?

The moment Qin Shaojie took the first step onto the stone stairs, an invisible pressure silently attacked him. The moment this pressure landed on Qin Shaojie's body, he immediately sensed it.

It seemed that even if he obtained a placing, becoming a disciple of the Holy Flame Academy would not be an easy task.

When Qin Shaojie took his first step forward, the pupils of the surrounding people constricted as well, as all of their attention landed on Qin Shaojie's body.

In the dark, the people sent by the Qin family and the spies arranged by Qin Zhu, were also staring at every single one of Qin Shaojie's movements.

Little fellow, what's left is up to you.

From the crowd in the distance, Elder Ye's voice also slowly sounded.
