"I will notify the spies arranged in Tianji Sect and ask them to pay attention to her safety at all times."
Yan Guiyun said: "Once there is news, they will use this transmission note to transmit it to you."
After speaking, he gave a golden transmission note.
Ye Qingchen took it with both hands and solemnly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yan Guiyun had done him such a favor, and no matter what, he would protect the entire Yanyun Kingdom with him!
"Go as soon as possible. I hope that when I see you next time, you have become the pillar of Yanyun Kingdom!"
Ye Qingchen nodded solemnly, resigned with Ning Suyan, and left Yanyun Palace.
A quarter of an hour later.
Princess Cuiwei entered the hall and looked at Yan Guiyun, who was sitting on the dragon chair and meditating.
"Father, do you really plan to put all your hopes on Ye Qingchen?"
Princess Cuiwei was a little puzzled.
After all, no matter how great Ye Qingchen's potential is, it still takes time to grow.
At the moment, they still don't know when Wei Lingfeng will break through.
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next moment.
"Right now, we have no other option."
Yan Guiyun raised his eyes and did not ask whether Princess Cuiwei was eavesdropping outside the door: "Your grandfather Yun is approaching his end. If you don't make another breakthrough, you will leave us."
"By then, we will have no trump card against them!"
"The only hope can only be placed on him."
"But what if..." Princess Cuiwei pursed her lips and said, "What if he can't comprehend that sword move?"
"..."
Yan Guiyun was silent for a moment, and finally sighed: "Then it can only be said...that this is God's will."
————————
After giving Ning Suyan many instructions, Ye Qingchen said goodbye to Ning Suyan and came to the door of a courtyard alone.
The territory of Cangming Sword Pavilion is very spectacular. It is a sword mountain suspended above the imperial city!
The courtyard that Ye Qingchen came to at this moment actually contained a teleportation array that could teleport people to the Sword Mountain in the sky.
Mei Xingkun, who had been notified by Yan Guiyun long ago, was already waiting in front of the door.
Seeing Ye Qingchen, he laughed, went up and hugged Ye Qingchen: "You are finally here! I have been thinking about you for a long time!"
Ye Qingchen smiled: "I'm really sorry to keep Senior Mei waiting for so long."
"What's so embarrassing about this."
Mei Xingkun waved his hand and said carelessly: "You don't know, our Pavilion Master really wants to see you right now."
"The Pavilion Master wants to see me. Could it be that he wants me to enter the 'Galaxy Sword Temple' to learn sword moves?"
Ye Qingchen asked tentatively.
"The emperor has told you everything?"
Although Mei Xingkun was a little surprised, he didn't feel much surprise: "That's true, but whether you can enter the 'Galaxy Sword Temple' to understand that sword move depends on your own strength."
"After all, most of our core disciples in Cangming Sword Pavilion are very confident in their own understanding."
Obviously, the senior officials of Cangming Sword Pavilion also learned about the movements of Qingyun Dao Palace from the royal family.
After that, Mei Xingkun pointed at the teleportation array and said, "Do you want to go up from the teleportation array, or fly up with my sword?"
"Of course Edgeworth!"
Ye Qingchen said without hesitation.
As a sword cultivator, how can you not fly with a sword?
Even if they reach the soaring realm, many sword cultivators will still choose to fly on their swords.
"Haha! I knew you would say that."
Mei Xingkun laughed loudly and moved his sword finger. His dark four-foot long sword instantly grew in size and floated at their feet.
The enlarged dark sword can just accommodate two people.
Ye Qingchen stepped on the sword and immediately felt a sense of weightlessness.
Fortunately, he quickly used his Qi to adjust his body balance and did not fall.
"Stand up...get ready to go!"
Mei Xingkun laughed loudly and flew into the sky with Ye Qingchen.
After a while.
The entrance to Jianshan Mountain.
Ye Qingchen, whose hair was a little messy, adjusted his appearance and looked forward.
There are scattered attics in the front, as well as several training venues and the main hall in the center.
Although the overall look is not as grand as expected, Ye Qingchen likes this simple and plain style very much.
"Junior Brother Mei, you are finally here."
A middle-aged man came to the two of them with a smile and looked at Ye Qingchen.
"This must be the leader of this Hundred Academy War, Ye Qingchen who single-handedly killed Gu Tiansheng, right? He is really young and promising!"
Hearing this, Ye Qingchen said with some embarrassment: "Senior, that's a compliment."
"This is the third elder of our Cangming Sword Pavilion. His name is Chang Yuanzhen. You can just call him Lao Chang."
Mei Xingkun introduced aloud.
Hearing this, Chang Yuan rolled his eyes in shock.
Of course, Ye Qingchen would not really call him like Mei Xingkun: "Disciple Ye Qingchen, I have met the third elder."
"Haha, not bad, not bad. He deserves to be the leader of this Hundred Academy War."
Chang Yuanzhen laughed and said: "Come with me, the master of the pavilion has been waiting for you for a long time."
Ye Qingchen and Mei Xingkun followed Chang Yuanzhen and walked forward.
Along the way, all the disciples who saw them cast curious glances at Ye Qingchen.
"Hey, have you seen it? Is the person following Elder Mei the Ye Qingchen who has been so popular recently?"
"That should be the case. I saw his portrait in the Imperial City when I went down there a few days ago. He looks similar to that person."
"He looks quite handsome, I feel ashamed."
"But this guy doesn't look out of the ordinary. I don't know why Elder Mei suddenly promoted him from an entry-level disciple to a core disciple."
"Elder Mei must have his own ideas, we just need to watch carefully."
Along the way, Ye Qingchen heard a lot of comments.
But what surprised him was that he hardly heard anyone's voice being unhappy with him becoming a core disciple.
"No wonder Cangming Sword Pavilion is valued by Qingyun Dao Palace. The attitude of these disciples towards each other symbolizes that they must be united!"
"It seems that I came here at the right time!"
Ye Qingchen felt a little lucky in his heart.
Soon, they entered the main hall.
In the main hall, there is a long aisle that leads directly to the depths of the main hall.
Deep in the main hall, someone was sitting cross-legged on the ground.
"Pavilion Master, Junior Brother Mei has already brought people here."
Chang Yuanzhen cupped his fists and saluted.
By this point, Mei Xingkun had obviously calmed down.
He also cupped his fists and saluted, and then whispered to Ye Qingchen: "This is our pavilion master, named Chen Feng."
Ye Qingchen raised his eyes and looked.
I saw the man sitting cross-legged on the ground, wearing a white robe, handsome and elegant.
If it weren't for Mei Xingkun's introduction, he would have thought that this person would be a scholar.
To be honest, this was the first time he had seen the leader of a force with such an easy-going and gentle temperament.
"Disciple Ye Qingchen has met the Pavilion Master."
Ye Qingchen just finished speaking.
Chen Feng slowly opened his eyes and locked his gaze on Ye Qingchen.
For a moment, Ye Qingchen suddenly felt a sharp gaze sweeping over him, as if he wanted to see through him.
Ye Qingchen's expression did not change, and he still maintained the gesture of clasping his fists and saluting.
"Yes, this kind of talent is indeed enough to become the core disciple of my Cangming Sword Pavilion."
After a moment, Chen Feng withdrew his gaze and nodded.
"As a result, there will be another big competition for the quota of the 'Galaxy Sword Temple'."
Hearing this, Ye Qingchen asked aloud: "Excuse me, Pavilion Master, have the quotas for the 'Galaxy Sword Temple' been determined?"
"Of course."
Chen Feng replied: "The 'Galaxy Sword Temple' will open next month, and we have decided on a total of ten places last week."
"If you want to enter the 'Galaxy Sword Temple', you need to fight one of these ten core disciples."
In response, Ye Qingchen nodded to express his understanding.
After all, he is just a new disciple.
Although he was promoted to a core disciple through Mei Xingkun, he still had to abide by the rules.
If Chen Feng relied on his potential to directly replace one of the places with himself, I am afraid that no matter how calm the disciples of Cangming Sword Pavilion were, they would probably curse.
"If you don't have anything to do now, why not start today?"
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Chen Feng's mouth.
It was obvious that he wanted to see Ye Qingchen's swordsmanship with his own eyes.
Chang Yuanzhen also nodded: "In our Cangming Jiange, if you want to quickly establish a relationship with an old disciple, it's best to have a fight first."
"If you don't fight, you won't get to know each other. This has become a consensus in our Cangming Sword Pavilion."
Hearing this, Ye Qingchen was startled.
Do the people in Cangming Sword Pavilion... all like fighting so much?!
Ye Qingchen thought for a moment and nodded: "Then I will go and say hello to the senior brothers first."
"Haha, I believe they will also say hello to you."
Chang Yuanzhen took the lead to walk out of the main hall: "I will go and call them all over first. Junior Brother Mei, please take him to the Sword Jue Platform and wait."
"okay."
Mei Xingkun turned around and left with Ye Qingchen. Before leaving, he said hello to Chen Feng: "Pavilion Master, let's take a step forward."
After saying that, without waiting for Chen Feng's response, Mei Xingkun took Ye Qingchen and ran away.
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed dumbly: "This guy needs a lesson again."
"Senior Mei...why were you running so fast just now?"
Ye Qingchen was a little puzzled.
He seemed to see that Mei Xingkun was a little afraid of Chen Feng.
"No...it's nothing. I am anxious to bring you out to meet my future brothers and sisters."
Mei Xingkun laughed a little guiltily: "Come on, come on, this is the sword stage where you will fight with those core disciples later."
Ye Qingchen looked in the direction he pointed and saw a stone platform similar to the Taoist Forum where the Hundred Academy Battle was held.
But around the sword arena, there are stone swords suspended, connected by sword energy, and they look like the pillars and fences of the arena.
"When necessary, those sword energies can automatically act as a protective barrier to prevent the competition between disciples from injuring other watching disciples in the audience."
Mei Xingkun explained: "At the same time, there is a large formation hidden in these stone swords. Once the sword mountain encounters a foreign enemy, it can be triggered to attack the foreign enemy."
"This is also why the sword art platform is set up outside."
Ye Qingchen nodded in surprise.
After they waited for a while under the stage, Chang Yuanzhen came here with ten male and female disciples in different clothes.
"This is Ye Qingchen who is going to fight one of you later. Don't underestimate him, he is very strong."
Chang Yuanzhen said with a smile to the ten core disciples behind him.
Upon hearing this, the ten core disciples immediately cast curious glances at Ye Qingchen.
"Come on, let me introduce you one by one."
Just as Mei Xingkun was about to speak, Chen Feng's figure suddenly appeared beside him.
"No need, Ye Qingchen, just fight with ten of them."
"If you win, I can let you enter the 'Galaxy Sword Temple' alone."
