The small incident that had happened outside the city had caused all the various forces and rogue cultivators in the Heiyuan City to discuss about it with curiosity.

Even the elders of the various forces did not seem to know much about Ye Jinghan, it was only limited to the period of time when the former was in the Heiyuan City.

Everyone's conclusion was about the same.

Ye Jinghan was a demon, but he was also a dead man.

If Ye Jinghan was still here, his current Ye Family would definitely not be reduced to the last of the three great families.

As for a dead person, no matter how famous they were in the past, after everyone talked about it for a while, they tossed it to the back of their minds and no longer cared about it. They continued to excitedly discuss about today's Tianxuan Academy Assessment.

Sun Jiyuan, who was at the front of the crowd, did not say a word. No one knew what he was thinking, but Qin Yang, who was at the side, tactfully remained silent as he led the way.

"Ningxue, then the person you have an engagement with, is someone from the Ye Family?" Sun Jiyuan suddenly called the girl behind him and said with a deep voice.

Bai Ningxue nodded with a confused face. Bai Zhentian added, "It is indeed Ye Jinghan's only son, but …" A tiger, a dog, and a son. It's nothing special. "

However, when he confirmed the news of the former's death a few years ago, his Ye Family had also gradually weakened. Especially after he found out that Ye Hao had been unable to cultivate for many years and his realm was low, Bai Zhentian had long regretted it.

It was precisely because of this that he agreed to go to the Ye Family to end the engagement with Bai Ningxue.

Sun Jiyuan's expression changed slightly. After a long while, he let out a long sigh. "Forget it, this is good."

"..."

After a moment of silence, they were led by Qin Yang to the center of the Heiyuan City.

In front of them, three gigantic platforms appeared.

The arena was extremely wide, and it was constructed from pieces of heavy bluestone. The entire platform was filled with the marks of swords and sabers, and waves of killing intent could be felt coming straight at one's face.

"Senior Sun, this is my Heiyuan City's martial arena. The Tianxuan Academy's yearly examination is held here." Qin Yang introduced the old man to the viewing platform.

After Sun Jiyuan took his seat, the members of the Bai, Chen, and Ye Families also ascended their respective viewing platforms.

The empty space below was quickly filled with a black mass of people. Everyone had fiery expressions as they looked at the three battle platforms, their hearts filled with anticipation.

The Tianxuan Academy's enrollment exam could be said to be the grandest event in the world.

Because this was a wind vane, as long as one was able to be accepted as a disciple by the Tianxuan Academy, then their family's position in the Heiyuan City would definitely rise greatly, and even appearing as one of the Four Great Clans might not be impossible.

Of course, even though the chances of getting a placing was the highest among the three great families and City Lord's Mansion, there had been no lack of unexpected dark horses rushing out over the years.

"..."

And at this time, after the Ye Family Observation Platform was seated, Tang Yun suddenly asked with a frown: "Uncle Ye, what happened to your injury?"

Based on her realm, along the way, she had already noticed that Ye Yunfeng's physique was constantly deteriorating. With the cultivation s that the old man owned, unless they were severely injured, they definitely would not be in such a state.

Ye Yunfeng's expression darkened. With a wry smile, he waved his hand and said, "It's fine if you don't mention it."

Ignoring him, Tang Yun gently tapped her back and frowned. As she checked, the expression on her face gradually turned ugly.

Upon closer inspection, Tang Yun discovered that there seemed to be an extremely sinister energy that had been inside Ye Yunfeng's body for a long time, constantly devouring his life force. With each passing moment, the old man's body was now in a precarious situation.

"Uncle Ye, who did this?"

Tang Yun's face was as cold as ever. She could completely imagine how the sinister power within the old man must have caused him to suffer inhumanly for all these years.

After she had calmed down from her rage, she had a serious feeling at the bottom of her heart. That sinister energy was too powerful, even her own Burning Fire Stage and cultivation felt a sense of fear, unable to contend against it.

The person who left behind this surge of energy was definitely a terrifying expert who surpassed the Spiritual Evolution Stage and stepped into the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

If such an existence wanted to kill Ye Yunfeng, it could be said to be a piece of cake. However, for some reason, that person deliberately used such a sinister method to torture the old man to this day.

"Tang Yun, no need to trouble yourself." Ye Yunfeng seemed to have already known the result, and he comforted her instead.

"Uncle Ye, could it be …" Did you go there to find Jinghan? " Suddenly, Tang Yun seemed to have thought of something, and her expression changed.

Ye Yunfeng bitterly nodded and didn't say anything more.

"Those bastards!"

At the same time, she finally understood why the old man, who was only a Tao Soul Stage cultivation, would provoke a Celestial Phenomenon Stage Ranker to kill him.

However, even though she was angry in her heart, Tang Yun still felt a sense of powerlessness. An old man's injuries could not be healed at all, unless there was a similarly strong Celestial Phenomenon Stage or if there was a Vital Essence s helping him.

The current her was only at the middle stage of the Burning Fire Stage, so much so that even breaking through the Spiritual Evolution Stage was still far off in the distance, let alone stepping into the Celestial Phenomenon Stage.

Furthermore, to request the help of an expert of this realm was not something she could do.

As for Fourth-Grade Medical Herbs, they were so rare and precious that even if she came from the Tianxuan Academy, she wouldn't be able to take them out so easily.

"Uncle Ye, follow me to the Tianxuan Academy. No matter what methods you think of, I will definitely cure you." Tang Yun gritted her teeth. No matter how difficult it was, she would definitely not stand idly by and watch as she thought of Ye Jinghan.

Ye Yunfeng's expression changed slightly. He immediately shook his head and laughed bitterly: "Tang Yun, I know how rare Fourth-Grade Medical Herbs are, you don't have to worry, if possible … I have a presumptuous request. "

"Please speak."

"I hope that you can defeat Hao... and bring it into the Tianxuan Academy. " After a moment of hesitation, Ye Yunfeng looked at Tang Yun with great hope.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, Ye Yunfeng still understood that Ye Tianlin would definitely be able to get one of the three spots on the Tianxuan Academy.

Once he entered the Tianxuan Academy, perhaps the Great Clan Elder's bloodline would temporarily hide in seclusion because they were afraid of Tang Yun. But after he leaves, his Ye Family would definitely experience an earth-shaking upheaval.

The only person he couldn't stop worrying about was Ye Hao.

Thus, when he saw Tang Yun, he thought to himself that he should send Ye Hao out of the Ye Family, far away from this whirlpool that was about to happen.

Hearing this, Tang Yun's expression turned awkward. She already knew Ye Hao's identity and strength from their conversation along the way.

In her opinion, although the former was so young, his strength was only at the seventh level of the Body Tempering stage. Compared to her father, he was simply too weak.

And this kind of strength, had not even reached the lowest threshold to enter the Tianxuan Academy.

If she were to reach the Spiritual Evolution Stage, perhaps she would be able to have some authority, but right now, she was only a Burning Fire Stage cultivation …

"Uncle Ye, I'll do my best." Tang Yun let out a faint sigh. She did not want the old man to be too disappointed, so she decided to use all of her contacts to see if she could recruit Ye Hao into the academy.

As for Ye Yunfeng, he naturally saw that he was in a difficult situation. Although he was prepared, he was still a bit disappointed. He forced a smile and said, "No problem. Just do your best."

At this time, on another spectator stand, three rays of light streaked across the sky and landed beside the three Bluestone Battlestage. Amidst the rumbling sounds, three glowing stone pillars appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

At the same time, Sun Jiyuan's majestic voice rang out right after: "This time, I will recruit students with Tianxuan Academy, for a total of three slots. The participants of the examination must be people under the age of twenty, and those who have yet to open their life seas.

"As for those three spirit pillars, they are called the Spirit Measuring Pillars. Those who go onstage only need to channel their Qi and blood into them. If they meet the qualifications, then the Spirit Measuring Pillar will have its own phenomena."

"For those who participate in the examination, after they ascend the stage, unless they lose, they are not allowed to leave again. Only those who persevere to the very end will be able to obtain a placing and become a Tianxuan Academy disciple."

"Now... The examination begins! "

As Sun Jiyuan finished his shout, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers, causing a ruckus among the crowd.

"Tsk tsk, it's really hard to advance into the Tianxuan Academy, to actually need to step into the realm of Ninth Layer of Body Tempering to participate in the examination."

"Why else would you think that all sorts of cats and dogs can enter the Tianxuan Academy?"

"..."

As the crowd discussed amongst themselves, all of them turned their gazes onto the young geniuses from the various major powers. None of them chose to be the first to ascend the platform.

According to the rules of the exam, if one entered the stage, unless they lost, they could not leave. That meant that the first person on the stage could face the following battles, and the one who suffered the most would be at a disadvantage.

Of course, this kind of assessment rule seemed to be unfair, but it was still intentional on the part of the Tianxuan Academy, because if one could not lose under the continuous challenges from the audience, then one would undoubtedly be considered one of the top participants.

It was precisely this kind of heaven's pride level expert that the Tianxuan Academy was going to recruit.

Looking at the gazes that were directed at him from below, Ye Tianlin stood up on the Ye Family spectating platform with a calm expression. After nodding to the Great Elder beside him, his body floated to the side of the spirit measuring pillar and gently pressed on it with his palm.

In an instant, a burst of resplendent light erupted from the circulating Spiritual Testing Pillar.

After the strange phenomenon of the spirit testing pillar appeared, Ye Tianlin climbed onto the Bluestone Battlestage with a dull expression. His gaze swept across the crowd below, as if he was waiting for his opponent to come up on stage.

"It's the Ye Family Qilin!"

"Rumor has it that he had long ago reached the Body Tempering realm. After accumulating for so long, he has been waiting for today."

"..."

Looking at the reverence on the faces of the crowd below, Ye Tianlin's mouth curled into a smile of pride. How could the others know that his current cultivation level had already broken through the Human Shackles.

It was precisely because of this that he was not afraid of anyone when he went onstage. This was because even if it was a practitioner of Body Tempering Great Perfection, they would only be completely crushed in front of him.

After Ye Tianlin ascended onto the platform, at the location of Chen Family, Chen Xuantong, who was dressed in white robes, slowly walked out. A feminine smile hung on his face as his palm pressed against the second spirit testing pillar.

Just like before, a bright light shone as Chen Xuantong climbed onto the second Bluestone Battlestage. He grinned at Ye Tianlin who was looking at him.

Seeing Chen Xuantong ascend onto another stage, the crowd under the stage all sighed in disappointment, but they also felt that it was natural.

After all, the two people on the stage were from the Ye Clan and the Chen Clan. If they were to fight against each other, a fierce battle would definitely break out. Regardless of who won, there would be one less terrifying opponent for the spectators.

However, it was clear that Ye Tianlin and Chen Xuantong were not idiots. They would never choose the most difficult opponent in such an important exam.

As everyone sighed, behind Qin Yang, a skinny silent young man carrying a Longsword on his back disappeared like a ghost.

When he reappeared, he was already standing on the third Bluestone Battlestage. Without seeing any movement from it, the third spirit testing pillar let out a burst of brilliance as if it were unaware.

"Young Master, Qin Chixiao!"

"Sigh, I originally thought that the third spot would be a bit easier. I didn't expect it to be Young Master Qin."

"How can we compete? The three people on the stage … I can't beat anyone! "

"..."

Looking at the young man on the third platform, whose entire body was emitting sharp Sword Intent s, the people who were planning to fight for the spots, all sighed.

Ye Tianlin, Chen Xuantong, Qin Chixiao.

These three people could completely be said to be the pinnacle existences within the Heiyuan City's younger generation. This time, if these three people were to make a move, it would be practically impossible for other people to compete for them.0

However, the temptation to enter Tianxuan Academy was simply too great.

Thus, even though they knew the strength of the three on the stage, in the midst of silence, there were still three cultivators of Ninth Layer of Body Tempering who went up onto the stage to challenge the three of them.

Instantly, the spirit energy on the stage boiled as energy spread across the sky. However, those three Ninth Layer of Body Tempering cultivators didn't even manage to last ten breaths of time before they were easily blasted off the stage, causing everyone below the stage to be filled with shock.

After all, that was a cultivator of the Ninth Layer of Body Tempering, and was only a hair's breadth away from the Body Tempering Great Perfection. Yet, in front of Ye Tianlin and the other two, he could not even withstand a single blow?

"Qin Yang, I never thought that although your Heiyuan City is far away, you do have a few decent seedlings." In the spectator's stand, Sun Jiyuan looked at the three people on stage and couldn't help but express his approval.

"Senior Sun is too kind."

Qin Yang chuckled as he glanced at Qin Chixiao, who was standing on the stage, with a gratified expression on his face.

Following the defeat of the three Ninth Layer of Body Tempering practitioners, after the shock of the crowd had passed, three more people stepped onto the stage. Two of them had reached the level of Ninth Layer of Body Tempering, and one cultivator with Body Tempering Great Perfection had ascended the stage where Ye Tianlin was on.

The Tianxuan Academy Assessment had left nearly ten thousand people empty-handed.

Therefore, no one noticed that outside of the Heiyuan City, there was a young man whose body was covered in blood. It was as if he had crawled back from hell as he staggered and entered the city.
