C376 The Sudden Imperial Pill Gathering

"You can try!"

An icy cold voice sounded out, and it instantly caused the atmosphere on the Martial Training Platform to become extremely tense. An icy cold killing intent spread out along with it.

The gloomy expression of the High Priest changed slightly. He glanced at Qiu Qinger, who was beside Dean of Four Spirit Academy, and a trace of fear flashed across his eyes.

If these two people joined hands, he would have no good ending.

"Why are you angry? I was just reminding you with good intentions. These days, the path of cultivation is difficult and dangerous. If you aren't careful, you will only easily lose your life." He said coldly.

"Then I really have to thank the High Priest for his kindness." Dean of Four Spirit Academy waved his sleeve and snorted coldly.

"No need to thank me!"

The High Priest smiled coldly. He raised his head and stared at Chu Kuangsheng. Although he did not speak, his eyes revealed a cold killing intent.

Chu Kuangsheng's expression was calm. He looked at Chu Kuangsheng, but did not dodge at all.

If this guy really thought that he could pinch him with just the strength of a Round Heaven Stage,

then he would tell the high priest of Black Devil Domain that even an inconspicuous rock could trip a person to death.

"Hehe, this place is really lively!"

Just as the atmosphere of the scene gradually stiffened, an aged laughter suddenly sounded. Immediately after, the light condensed and turned into an aged figure in the sky above the Martial Training Stage.

The old man was dressed in sackcloth and looked like an ordinary old man. However, the powerful aura that was emitted from his body caused everyone to feel an invisible mountain pressing down on their bodies.

Even Dean of Four Spirit Academy and the other Round Heaven Stage experts had solemn expressions as they raised their heads to look at the sky.

"Iron Wood King!" Dean of Four Spirit Academy's eyes focused as he exclaimed in surprise.

He did not expect that this competition would actually startle this person.

"Iron Wood King? Who is this person?"

Chu Kuangsheng tilted his head and asked Consort Lau. He could sense an unusually strong Qi from the old man's body. This Qi was so strong that it even surpassed an ordinary Round Heaven Stage.

"I heard from my master that Iron Wood King is from the Divine Dragon Imperial Family. He is a prince with great authority. It was said that even the current emperor had great respect for him. It could even be said that he was slightly wary of him." Consort Lau looked at the old man and softly said.

Upon hearing this, Chu Kuangsheng revealed a surprised expression. This old man's identity was actually so noble.

"May I know why Iron Wood King came here?" Heavenly Heart Scholar cupped his hands and spoke in a deep voice.

"Haha! Don't be nervous. I'm here to see who won the first place in this year's Battle of Seeds." Iron Wood King waved his hand and said with a smile.

Hearing this, the High Priest's face turned darker and darker.

If Iron Wood King were to get involved in this matter, it would be extremely bad news to him.

"Iron Wood King, you must be joking. The champion of this year's Battle of Seeds is a junior of Four Spirit Academy."

Dean of Four Spirit Academy's smile was thick. Although he said this, his tone was filled with pride.

All these years, Four Spirit Academy had always been at a disadvantage when it came to cultivating the fresh blood of the younger generation. This time, they could finally hold their heads high.

"Oh?"

A bright light suddenly flashed across Iron Wood King's turbid eyes. He followed Dean of Four Spirit Academy's lead and looked in the direction of Chu Kuangsheng.

"It's you, little guy?" He asked in surprise.

How could this year's top scorer be a young man who had just entered the Nine Cauldron Stage Rank Eight?

Furthermore, this man was the reason he came here.

"Greetings, Iron Wood King!" Chu Kuangsheng said with a respectful expression.

As he spoke, he had some doubts in his heart. From Iron Wood King's tone, it seemed like he had some understanding of him.

Iron Wood King nodded his head. His eyes inadvertently swept towards the defeated Gu Ling. His expression flickered for a moment, as if he had understood something.

When he thought of this, he looked at Chu Kuangsheng once again with a hint of surprise and admiration.

This little guy was outstanding.

"Little fellow, I have a suggestion. I wonder what your opinion is?" Iron Wood King said with a smile.

Chu Kuangsheng was stunned for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said, "Senior, please speak."

"This king was entrusted by the Imperial Family to invite you to pay a visit to this year's Imperial Capital Pill Association."

Iron Wood King smiled faintly. It caused the atmosphere of the scene to freeze.

Imperial Capital Pill Association? This was the top Pill Association in the entire Divine Dragon Empire. All those who could participate were seniors who had been immersed in alchemy for dozens of years.

But now, with such a heavyweight of the Pill Association, why would they invite a junior to participate?

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the old man doubtfully.

Dean of Four Spirit Academy and the others also revealed puzzled expressions.

"It's not convenient to explain the reason here."

Iron Wood King shook his head, looked at Chu Kuangsheng, and said in a deep voice, "You are the champion of the Pill Association of the Five Territories, right?"

Chu Kuangsheng's eyes sparkled when he heard this. He said respectfully, "Yes, I am."

"That's right. If you agree, I will personally go to Four Spirit Academy to pick you up three months later." Iron Wood King said.

Chu Kuangsheng showed a hesitant expression. Naturally, he would hesitate when he suddenly invited him to join the Imperial Capital Pill Association.

After pondering for a moment, he turned his gaze to Dean of Four Spirit Academy. The latter nodded at him. Clearly, he agreed with this matter.

Chu Kuangsheng hesitated for a moment upon seeing this. Finally, he nodded and said, "Iron Wood King is too courteous. This junior will head to the capital on my own."

Iron Wood King's face immediately revealed a joy when he heard these words. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "In order to avoid any accidents, this old man will personally escort you into the Imperial Capital."

As soon as these words were spoken, the face of the Black Devil Domain's High Priest turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

What he was worried about had still happened. Iron Wood King actually wanted to personally escort Chu Kuangsheng into the Imperial Capital.

If that was the case, wouldn't that mean that the plan he had secretly planned would be completely foiled?

"No, I can't let this little bastard join the Imperial Capital Pill Association. Once he is lucky enough to obtain some ranking, it will be extremely disadvantageous to the Black Devil Domain."

He thought to himself. His gloomy eyes kept flickering, as if he was calculating something.

"Thank you very much, senior." Seeing Iron Wood King's firm attitude, Chu Kuangsheng didn't refuse anymore. He cupped his hands and said.

"Hehe!"0

Iron Wood King smiled with relief. After pondering for a moment, he waved his palm and a ray of light shot out.

Chu Kuangsheng reached out and took it. It was a box made of sandalwood. A faint fragrance spread out from the gap of the box.

"This is the reward for you winning the first place in the Battle of Seeds on behalf of Divine Dragon Imperial Family." Iron Wood King stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Reward?"

Chu Kuangsheng sent his spiritual energy into the Wooden Box, and a surprised expression immediately emerged on his face.

Inside the ___ was actually a peak third-grade medicinal pill. Heavenly Heart Pill!
