Chapter 268 Entering the Academy

"No, you know each other? What's your relationship?"

Yun Qingluo looked at the two people in front of him. For some reason, he always had an inexplicable feeling of strange embarrassment.

Jiang Xu nodded, "Yes, I am Jiang Xu. I have yet to thank the Young Palace Master for saving my life. Now that I see you, I must thank you in person."

"No, no, no." Yun Qingluo waved her hand, "No, no, it's not worth mentioning. But Wanye, what is the relationship between you two?"

Yun Qingluo emphasized again, but her eyes kept moving back and forth between Jiang Xu and Ye Wanqing.

Ye Wanqing's lips curled slightly, "It doesn't matter. We're just close friends."

"Best friends? Are they really just friends? There shouldn't be anything else going on, right?"

Yun Qingluo looked at Jiang Xu beside her, as if eager to know. Jiang Xu's eyes flickered slightly, and thinking of the purpose of his master coming to the Tianling Realm, he nodded slightly, "We are really friends, and the kind of close friends who would risk their lives for each other."

Hearing Jiang Xu's emphasis, Yun Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief. For some reason, the strange feeling in her heart had been reduced by half. Fortunately, it was not the Long Yang homosexuality described in the storybooks, otherwise, how embarrassing it would be for her.

Jiang Xu's mouth twitched slightly, "No, benefactor, why do I feel that your eyes are weird?"

"No, no, no, don't call me that. Since you are Wanye's friend, you are also my friend. Wanye and I are friends who have risked our lives for each other. There is no need to call me that. Just call me Qingluo together with Wanye."

Yun Qingluo, who had let go of the strange feeling in her heart, was obviously much more relaxed. Facing Jiang Xu, her originally nervous expression gradually eased.

"Oh, by the way, Wanye, Tianling Academy just sent me a message. In order to make up for it, we can directly become new disciples and don't need to participate in the third round of the competition."

"That's good."

Jiang Xu paused for a moment, "Master... Wanye, have you already participated in the Tianling Academy freshman competition? Can I still participate now?"

Ye Wanqing originally thought that it would take some time for her to reunite with Jiang Xu. However, if Jiang Xu wanted to enter Tianling Academy, it was not impossible. He just needed to say hello to Yan Ze. However, her current plan was not to contact Yan Ze in the near future to avoid any gossip.

"You haven't joined any forces either?"

Seeing Jiang Xu nod solemnly, Yun Qingluo waved her hand and said, "Since you are Wan Ye's friend and you haven't joined any faction, I am willing to speak on your behalf. However, whether you can join or not is only a possibility."

Yun Qingluo crossed his arms and said, "But I think it should be no problem. The people from Tianling Academy are worried about how to make up for me, and your strength seems to be not weak. There is a high probability that there should be no problem."

"So, thank you very much."

After Yun Qingluo left, Jiang Xu suddenly thought of something and asked, "Master, have you been able to contact Su Shaohuai?"

Ye Wanqing's expression shifted slightly. "No, I haven't sensed Su Shaohuai's presence since arriving in the Heavenly Spirit Realm. What's going on? Do you seem to have something to do with him?"

Jiang Xu's expression froze slightly. "It's not that there's anything wrong, I just wanted to ask. After all, having one more person by your side, Master, will give you a little more assurance of safety."

"Just take care of yourself. I don't care if you want to enter Tianling College, but don't do anything else behind my back."

Ye Wanqing's eyes flickered slightly, and there was both worry and warning in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Xu.

"Don't worry, Master. I'm no longer the same person I used to be. Now I'm very cautious in what I do."

Ye Wanqing brought Jiang Xu to the inn where they were staying temporarily. Not far away, a man was standing at the door, obviously waiting for a long time.

"Wanye, you're back. As soon as I left the secret realm, they told me that you had come out, so I came here to wait for you. I heard that you entered the Illusion Mirror. Are you okay?"

Yu Junlin's eyes were filled with worry, but at this moment he did not notice Jiang Xu behind Ye Wanqing.

But Jiang Xu saw him at a glance. He frowned slightly, and a hint of irritation and disgust flashed through his mind. Where did this man come from? He seemed to be somewhat close to his master.

Facing Yu Junlin's concern, Ye Wanqing's expression remained unchanged, even a hint of alienation lingering in her eyes. "I'm fine. Let me introduce you. This is Jiang Xu, and this is Jun Lin."

Jiang Xu frowned slightly, "Jun Lin? Is your last name Jun Lin?"

Yu Junlin came back to his senses. Seeing that there were outsiders around, his eyes regained their usual indifference and distance. He replied to Jiang Xu with the words Ye Wanqing had once said, "When I'm away from home, my name is just a code name. Just call me Junlin."

"Oh, is that so? No wonder. Brother Jun Lin looks so impressive, so he must have a strong background. But there's no major power with the surname 'Jun' in this spiritual world."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Jiang Xu's eyes, and he and Yu Junlin looked into each other's eyes, neither of them giving in.

"Brother Jiang, you're too polite. It's the same for you."

Ye Wanqing seemed unable to sense the undercurrent between Jiang Xu and Yu Junlin, or in other words, she had already sensed it, but she just ignored it.

a few days later

Ye Wanqing and the others successfully entered Tianling College, but on the day of admission, they received quite a bit of criticism.

E.g

"They both withdrew from the freshman competition in the second round. How can they enter Tianling College now? This is unfair."

"What's going on? Even Tianling Academy, the top academy in the Tianling Realm, is using connections to get in on the action. This is so unfair. There are only twenty people advancing in total, so why are there three people with connections?"

"No, I protest. We worked ourselves to death and successfully advanced to the third round, but others advanced directly. I protest."

However, in the end, Tianling Academy used "tough" measures to make all those who had opinions no longer have "opinions".

Today, all the newly promoted disciples will go to the square, where the chief disciples of the elders will announce who in their group will become the elder's personal disciple, or an ordinary inner disciple.

There was a lot of discussion along the way.

"By the way, have you heard? A scandal broke out in the Lin family a few days ago, and it's all over the place now."
