“They’re haven’t received enlightenment, have they?” Huo Yin was concerned.
Wen Ling said grumpily, “Feng Wu has lost her abilities, hasn’t she? Her making progress in cultivation? Are you kidding me?”
“What about Duan Chaoge?” Huo Yin looked alarmed. “Five years ago, Chaoge used to follow Feng Wu everywhere and she was a genius herself as well. She was that close to the Spiritual Grandmaster stage even then.”
That was true. Feng Wu had been brilliant five years ago and Chaoge, her friend, was also a well-known figure.
Duan Chaoge had been qualified to enter Imperial College when she was only eight. How talented she must have been!
Ye Yafei smirked. “Feng Wu is a cripple and Duan Chaoge’s cultivation level has continued to drop. So what if they see something in Inky Rain? Do you think they’ll be able to make any progress?”
“Hahahaha —” Everyone looked at the pair of girls in contempt.
Huo Yin frowned. “Although, that Inky Rain is so difficult to read. How are we supposed to learn anything from it? I’ve looked at it a hundred times and I still don’t get it, let alone been enlightened. It makes my head dizzy every time.”
Wen Ling nodded. “That’s right. I thought I could use it to improve my cultivation level a little before the entrance exam for Imperial College. That way, I’d have a better chance of getting in.”
“Sister Yafei is so awesome. She got in last year already.”
Of these teenagers, Ye Yafei was the only one who had gotten into Imperial College.
Ye Yafei said, “You’ve all become Level 9 Spiritual Masters after shoring up your cultivation for a year. Don’t worry. I’m sure all of you will get in this time.”
Huo Yin took Ye Yafei’s arm. “Sister Yafei, can you talk us through the entrance exam of Imperial College?”
Ye Yafei said grumpily, “Haven’t you guys taken the exam once already? I know you all failed last year, but have you forgotten all about it already? Fine, I’ll talk you through it.”
She said in a gloating yet reluctant voice, “The entrance examination of Imperial College has a literary component and a martial component. The total score is 1000, with the literary component taking up 300 and the martial component 700. Only the top one thousand candidates for the literary exam will qualify to take the martial exam. You all still remember that?”
“Yes.” Everyone nodded.
Ye Yafei said, “You know what? You know all this already. Here’s what I have for you: get into Imperial College and you’ll find a brand new world. Your life will be lifted to a whole new level.
“You may find the most unattainable figures there as your classmates.
“Imperial College’s essence-gathering formation is immensely helpful for your cultivation.
“Everyone is ranked at Imperial College, and you’ll be motivated to work harder by all the competitors.
“Most important of all, Young Lord Feng is a nominal student of Imperial College. Even His Royal Highness, the respected crown prince of our empire, is a nominal student of Imperial College. We address him as Senior Brother in private.”
“Wow!!!”
The others covered their mouths in excitement. “His Royal Highness? His Royal Highness?!!!”
“That’s right!” Ye Yafei nodded. “Of course, we only use it among ourselves and His Royal Highness will only ignore us if we address him like that in front of him. But at least… that’s quite an intimate form of address, isn’t it?”
“I have to get into Imperial College this year!” Eyes sparkling, Huo Yin made a fist!
The others did the same.
To them, the crown prince and his friends were too out of reach.
