"Hey, I didn’t expect this new guy to be so enthusiastic!" At that moment, an unpleasant voice suddenly interrupted, "Kid, do you know the rules here? Quickly hand over some spirit medicines, or you’ll taste some pain!" A young man dressed in a yellow brocade robe, with an oiled head and a powdered face, swaggered over and loudly addressed Shao You.
"What did you say?" Shao You's eyebrows shot up. Who was he? He was Shao You, and since coming to this world, everyone who dared to provoke him had been crushed by him. He was never one to shy away from trouble. The moment he heard that someone was trying to rob him, his anger surged.
"Huh? Want to resist? Humph, looks like you don’t know your place!" The young man sneered, "Alright, let me, Ma Fei, give you a lesson!"
"Brother Lu," Ye Ku frowned slightly, "Let’s go. It’s better to avoid trouble when we’re new here."
"No problem!" Shao You sneered, "This guy dares to threaten me, I’ll make him understand the consequences!"
Ma Fei laughed maniacally, pointing at Shao You, "You? A mere Eighth Stage Qi Practitioner thinks he can win against me? Are you out of your mind?!"
At this moment, people were constantly passing by, whispering to each other. Some were disdainful, some sympathetic, and others were gleefully waiting for the show to begin.
"You’re asking for it!" Shao You's eyes glinted with a murderous intent, and he clenched his fists, ready to strike. Ma Fei also sneered, his eyes filled with disdain.
Just as the two were about to fight, a voice as loud as a bell echoed, making the entire space buzz, "What are you doing here! It’s mealtime! Anyone causing a disturbance will be punished according to the outer sect rules! Ma Fei, do you want to cause trouble here?"
The moment this voice appeared, the surrounding crowd scattered like rats seeing a cat. A middle-aged man with a square face slowly walked down from the mountain.
"No, no, it’s not like that, Steward Qian! I, I was just discussing things with this new guy!" Ma Fei laughed nervously, "Steward Qian, why are you here?"
"Hmph, as long as it’s nothing serious, otherwise, hmpf!" Steward Qian glanced at Ma Fei, "You can go now!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Ma Fei bowed his head and obediently left, not forgetting to give Shao You a fierce glare as he went, as if saying, "Kid, you wait and see!"
Shao You glared back. At this moment, Steward Qian turned around and asked, "Are you two new here?"
"Yes," Shao You nodded.
"Good, now I’ll introduce you to the various rules and daily routines of the Azure Dragon Academy." Steward Qian turned and said, "Follow me first, I’ll take you to your residence. The Azure Dragon Academy is one of the four major academies! By the way, do you know how many main peaks the Yanwu Clan has?"
"A total of 108 main peaks! Each of these 108 peaks has an academy! For example, this Azure Dragon Peak is managed by the Azure Dragon Academy. Among these 108 peaks, there are four of the strongest, and our Azure Dragon Peak is one of them. The other three are the Vermilion Bird Peak, the White Tiger Peak, and the Black Tortoise Peak. Our Azure Dragon Peak is complex and diverse, the Vermilion Bird Peak is all women, the White Tiger Peak is a group of killing machines and lunatics, and the Black Tortoise Peak is a bunch of incredibly strong and well-defended individuals." As he spoke, Steward Qian's face lit up.
"In our Azure Dragon Academy, everyone starts by living in a cave. To have a room or a house, you need to perform well in the outer sect competition of the Yanwu Clan. Of course, there’s a more direct, but also more brutal method adopted by many of the clan members."
"What method?" Ye Ku asked.
"Rob!" Steward Qian nodded. "Here, as long as you have the strength, anything is possible! Only with strength can you live in a good room. The better the room, the higher up you need to be! The higher up you are, the stronger you are! When your strength reaches a certain level, you can even have your own independent peak! Like Luo Fanchen of the inner clan, who opened his own peak and cultivates there!"
Shao You, listening from the side, his eyes gleamed like a wolf's. He licked his lips, thinking, this world is truly a society with a strict hierarchy!
"Alright! This is your cave, pick one for yourselves!" Steward Qian stopped and pointed to a group of caves, "Once you’ve chosen, throw your Yanwu token into the cave, and it will automatically generate a formation that only allows the owner to enter!"
A moment later.
"Go and get some sets of disciple clothing when the time comes. In our outer sect of the Yanwu Clan, disciples are divided into four categories: ordinary disciples, core disciples, true disciples, and holy sons. Ordinary disciples wear black robes with red flame borders, core disciples wear purple flame borders, true disciples wear gold flame borders, and holy sons usually don’t need to wear these outer sect uniforms, only in public places do they wear blood-gold battle robes!"
"Alright, now I’ll take you to the Grand Spirit Hall for a meal." Steward Qian said, "Let’s go."
...
"This, this is...!?" Shao You and Ye Ku looked at the magnificent hall in shock, "Such a grand hall, it’s actually used for eating!?"
"Haha, this is for ordinary disciples to eat. Core disciples and true disciples don’t need to eat anymore." Steward Qian laughed heartily, "Surprised? I had the same expression when I was young, haha!"
Steward Qian led the two into the hall. Everywhere, ordinary disciples, dressed in black robes with red flame borders, were walking around, at least a hundred thousand of them. Some were in groups of three or five, others were hugging each other, whispering about something. Many were heading towards a lotus pond in the center of the hall, picking one or two lotus flowers and leaving, then running to another corner of the hall where there was a door with a hole for hands to reach through. As soon as someone approached, the hole would send out a large bowl of colorful rice!
"That lotus flower is..." Shao You didn’t have time to ask, as he saw an ordinary disciple casually find a place to sit, place the lotus flower on the table, and slowly open it, revealing steaming hot dishes! Even from several meters away, Shao You could see the strong spiritual energy emanating from the dishes. The rice was as clear as jade, the dishes were fresh and vibrant, the spiritual energy was abundant, making one feel refreshed and hungry.
Shao You and Ye Ku looked at this magnificent scene like country bumpkins watching city folk eat, their hearts screaming, "Immortal Dao! This is the grandeur of an Immortal Dao powerhouse! It’s terrifying! I want to seek the Dao here! This is truly the holy land of the Immortal Dao!"
Only the divine pig in Shao You's sea of consciousness snorted, turned over, and continued to sleep, muttering, "It’s just eating, and this shocks you so much! What a disgrace! Truly embarrassing for this great pig!"
