C32 A Voice from China

The Southern Pearl Institute was still bustling with noise and excitement, and the people in the courtyard were running in an endless stream. However, compared to the usual liveliness, it seemed to be very different. Nowadays, the people of the academy were running all over the place, and they wouldn't say a single word to each other. It was as if the things in front of them were greater than the sky, and they couldn't afford to delay anything along the way.

Just yesterday morning, a shocking news came from the back mountain, and it shocked the entire academy. This year's Small Saber Spiritual Gathering actually ended five days ahead of schedule. Seeing the many teachers' solemn expressions and the students' dispirited expressions, the people in the courtyard were momentarily at a loss.

"What's going on? What happened? "

After that, the higher-ups of the academy gave the order to not reveal anything about this incident to the instructors and students who knew about the Spirit Association. As for the hundred plus students who were directly involved in this incident, they were transferred to a special location by the academy as treatment and more important inquiries.

However, paper could not wrap fire. A few days after the end of the Spirit Gathering, the atmosphere within this academy had become extremely strange, and a solemn atmosphere filled the surroundings. Moreover, some rumors had started to spread through this place.

"Have you heard? I heard from the Beginner Level students that someone broke into the depths of the Hundred Beasts Forest during this competition. As a result, a powerful Spirit Beast was drawn out, causing countless casualties among the students!"

"I saw it too. When they came back that day, I saw many injured students!"

"Bullsh * t! It was clearly this time that the competition between the fools at the beginning level of Spirit Gathering was extremely fierce, resulting in countless casualties!"

"You're the one who's farting! Can our own people fight so ruthlessly? "

"How is that impossible? Last year, we. . . "

. . .

Just as the rumors in the academy were spreading that the waves were rising one after another, an unquestionable voice came from the upper echelons of the academy, "This time, due to the academy's mistake, the Small Saber Spiritual Gathering. . . The students accidentally triggered an ancient ruin in the Hundred Beasts Forest, causing many students to be injured in this accident. However, no one died. The Spiritual Association ended earlier than expected. As for the matters related to the Spiritual Association, they would make arrangements in the future. From today onwards, the academy prohibits the spreading of rumors regarding the Spirit Gathering. "

When everyone heard this voice from a higher echelon in the distance, they all felt that the matter became even more confusing and confusing. Exactly which side was speaking the truth? As for what exactly happened in the Small Saber Spirit Gathering, perhaps they would never know.

Just like that, half a month passed. The atmosphere in the academy from the beginning of the commotion had already become quiet. It was like a huge rock that caused the water to splash and deeply sank into the hearts of the students.

In the middle of Southern Pearl Institute, on a towering mountain peak, there was a huge platform. On the edge of the platform, there were rows of houses. There were more than a hundred beginner students here, and they had already lived here for half a month.

When they returned from the hunting ground in the back mountain, the elders of the academy had asked them to rest and heal here. Now, many of the students had basically recovered, and some of the seriously injured people were not able to recover much. However, until today, the academy still did not allow them to leave the mountain.

Every day, there would be an elder who would come and ask them.

"How many black clothed man are there?"

"About, about forty to fifty. . . "

"How's the strength of the black clothed man?"

"Every one of them is very powerful. We are no match for them. "

"Do they have a leader?"

"There is one. He seems to be an old man. "

"Do you remember what he looks like?" Wang Yao asked.

"I can't see. . . "

" Where did you guys meet them? "

"Deep in the back mountain, northwest region. "

"I'm in the northeast region. "

These students had to answer almost the same question the other day, but the people from the academy would always ask in more detail.

The academy would report all the information they obtained from the students to the higher-ups of the academy. On the morning of the fifth day, a person from the Sacred Knight Palace came to the academy. He took away all the information and left in a hurry after giving some instructions to the academy.

It was at this moment that a piece of news entered the ears of the people.

A while ago, almost every spiritual institution in China had been attacked to different degrees. The mastermind behind every accident had disappeared without a trace.

The most serious one was the Northeast Sanyuan. Almost all the students in the Spiritual Academy had been killed. In comparison, The one with the least losses was the Southern Pearl Institute in the Eastern Port County of the Haimang Province. It was said that no one had died in Nan Zhu's attack. The most serious one was a student whose arm had been cut off. Therefore. . . Southern Pearl Institute had also entered the field of vision of the upper echelons of China. They even secretly ordered the dean of Southern Pearl to go to the Central Plains for questioning.

The dean of the Southern Pearl Institute had also rushed back from the outer regions at the first possible moment. After tidying up, he set off to teleport to the Sacred Knight Palace of the Central Plains.

This news had been circulating since the incident that day. After that, as time passed, not only did it not calm down, but it also caused a lot of controversy.

Of course, ordinary people would not know about all of this. Only the people related to the Sacred Knight Palace and the original Spiritual Academies had heard about it. The upper echelons of China had already banned all of the news. Half a month later, only people were discussing it quietly behind their backs. Normally, no one would mention it again.

And the person who died? The family members of the deceased students did not receive the best consolation. When China dealt with this matter, they used iron fists. No one could get an accurate explanation.

In the central region of the Central Plains, there was a basin surrounded by mountains. The water and soil on the basin were fertile. Since the ancient times when people had not developed spirit enhancements, this place had been densely packed with city-states. After tens of thousands of years, the status here had become even higher, and China had been decided on this place.

In the center of the basin, there was the largest city in all of China. It was Jing Hua City. This was also where the Saint Knight Main Hall was located. At this moment, in the spacious hall in the center of the city. . . The upper echelons of the Saint Knight's Hall were sitting around a golden jade round table. All of them had ancient expressions on their faces. Their bodies were emitting ripples that could distort space.

Only one of them was rather special. He wore a pale Daoist robe, and there was a seven-colored pearl on his chest that was extremely dazzling. He was the dean of Southern Pearl Institute, Ye Yuntian.

His face wasn't considered old. Compared to the elders of the Spiritual Academy, he was considered very young. However, under the pressure of the elder from the upper echelons of China, he did not feel nervous or anxious at all. Instead, he sat quietly, and his tone was calm and composed.

"Dean Ye, can you tell us about the situation of that student from your academy?" Beside the round table, a long-bearded elder asked.

"Replying to my lord, the student in my academy is called Hwang Mingsi. He just entered the academy. The academy has only been in the academy for less than half a year, but he was able to gain enlightenment and comprehend the power of psychic power. It was also because of this that he was able to help the academy escape danger. " The Dean replied respectfully.

"Oh? Spirit Comprehension? This child should be no more than fifteen, right? To actually have such an opportunity, this is your academy's good fortune. " The long-bearded elder said with a smile. Then, he paused for a moment, and said seriously, "I heard that he saw the appearance of the person behind the scenes?"

"Replying to my lord, he did indeed see it. After his description, we have already roughly drawn out the person's appearance" As he spoke, Dean Ye lightly patted his spatial bag. A scroll of painting instantly floated out and flew to the center of the round table, slowly opening.

In the scroll, there was a black-robed figure. His entire body was wrapped in a black robe. From the stooped figure, it could be seen that he was an old man. Under the black cloth was an extremely distorted face. The wrinkles on his face were mixed with scars, and his ghastly eyes made people shudder in fear.

"According to the Head Elder of our academy, the explosive bead used by the other party is extremely strange. It is a force that is very difficult to resist, and it seems to have a suppressive effect on the spiritual energy of our cultivators. " Dean Ye then explained the situation of the Great Elder that day.

"Mysterious bead, black-robed man. . . " The long-bearded old man muttered, then he began discussing with the other old men next to him. They were using their spiritual energy to communicate with each other. Dean Ye didn't know what they were talking about, but he didn't need to know. This was a matter of the higher-ups.

Not long after, the elders seemed to have come to a conclusion. The long-bearded old man turned to look at Dean Ye. "Dean Ye's information is extremely important to us. If you have any more information, you must report it immediately. "

"That should be the case!" Dean Ye nodded.

At this time, a red-faced old man said, "Why don't you teleport that Hwang Mingsi over and use Spirit Devour on him? This way, it will be more accurate and real. " The red-faced old man said as he stared coldly at Dean Ye. "What do you think, dean?"

Dean Ye paused when he heard this. He knew that this lord was dissatisfied that the information given by the academy was too little and too vague. However, he had no choice. Hwang Mingsi, who knew the most about the truth, did not reveal too much information. Most of the time, he was silent. The academy had already done a lot of work to know about this.

"Master, Hwang Mingsi has sacrificed a lot this time. Furthermore, his injuries haven't fully healed yet. It's not appropriate for him to do this. " Although Dean Ye didn't agree with him, he still replied calmly.

"For the benefit of China, does a little student not know how to cooperate fully? Furthermore, this matter concerns all of China! Your academy is actually so uncooperative!" The red-faced old man instantly became angry, and a terrifying pressure instantly spread out towards Dean Ye.

. . . "" Dean Ye was silent and did not speak.

At this time, a middle-aged man sitting in the main seat spoke, "Sovereign Peng, don't be angry. You can't be impatient about this. Besides, the information provided by Southern Pearl Institute has already helped us a lot. " Once the middle-aged man spoke, the people around him immediately quieted down. The pressure from the red-faced old man was also dispersed by his words.

"But Palace Sovereign, this. . . " The red-faced old man was about to speak, but the middle-aged man waved his hand to signal him. He looked at Dean Ye with a profound gaze, making it hard for people to let their thoughts run wild.

"Can Hwang Mingsi's arm be reattached for him?"

Dean Ye paused when he heard this. He sighed and shook his head. "The wound is burned by light spiritual Qi. The person who attacked is extremely ruthless. His arm cannot be reattached. "

The middle-aged man was silent for a while. Then, he flipped his hand and a white jade bottle appeared out of thin air. It floated towards Elder Ye and said, "It's not easy for him to gain enlightenment. He has also made a great contribution. He should be encouraged. This is a True Spirit Body Transformation Pill. Combined with his psychic powers, it will be of some help to his arm. "

Upon hearing this, the elders present all revealed surprised expressions. The surprise on Dean Ye's face became even stronger. Gratitude appeared in his eyes. After organizing his thoughts, he said respectfully, "Thank you for your kindness, Palace Sovereign!"

The middle-aged man nodded and said. "Alright, you can leave now. "

Elder Ye received the white jade bottle with both hands, stood up, and slowly left the hall.

After he left, several elders on the round table raised their doubts. However, the middle-aged man said in an unquestionable tone, "Hwang Mingsi has indeed contributed a lot this time. Furthermore, I have just checked and found out that his father, Hwang Yingyuan, is a meritorious person in the hall. Now that he has been sent to carry out a mission, we should compensate him. "

The other elders were silent upon hearing this.

The middle-aged man spoke again. "Although the information isn't detailed enough, I believe everyone has an answer. "

Hearing this, everyone's expression became serious.

The long-bearded old man's eyes became serious as he said, "It's the people of Doomsday Continent!"

The middle-aged man slowly nodded, "It has been five hundred years since that war, and this is the biggest disturbance they have caused. "

"Hmph, let them cause trouble. They're just digging their own graves. Very soon, we'll make them realize the majesty of China. " The red-faced old man angrily knocked on the table with his finger.

"We won't make a big response during this period of time. However, we can't allow such an accident to happen again in China. Pass on my order, adjust the defense system of each place. I'll have to trouble Sovereign Peng with the details. " The middle-aged man said.

"This is my duty, I will do my duty. " The red-faced old man nodded.

At this moment, the long-bearded old man spoke: "Palace Emperor, the Heavenly Tower Conference is about to begin. Shouldn't we be more vigilant?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed lightly. "Every year, there will always be people from other continents coming to disturb the Heavenly Tower Conference. It's not too excessive, so let's just give up. If there is another matter of crossing realms, then let them suffer a setback. " As he spoke, We'll just follow the original plan. China doesn't need to be afraid of these small countries!"

"Yes!" The red-faced old man's eyes revealed a strange light as he respectfully replied. From the words earlier, he could hear the anger of the Palace Emperor. Although he did not show any signs of fighting as usual, the tone in his words had gradually become firm.

After which, many of the upper echelons of China discussed for a long time before they left to take care of the next step.
