Chapter 252 Academy Tournament

The women from prominent families couldn't take their eyes off her clothes, and when they saw her come out of Xiangrui Pavilion, they all pulled their friends inside.

Tonight's pear blossoms should make it a very happy day.

............

At night, a warm orange light illuminates the Fengning Courtyard in the suburbs.

Upon returning, Feng Siyue pieced together several stone slabs in the courtyard for stargazing.

"The stars are dimming, and the days are drawing to a close."

"A malevolent spirit afflicts the Eastern Palace; extremely ominous..."

Feng Siyue gazed at the starry sky, remaining silent for a long time.

Surely the various sects and schools can handle such a celestial phenomenon?

Xuan Li, who was sleeping in the room, also seemed to be having an uneasy time.

In her dream, she seemed to have entered a world filled with the cool fragrance of magnolias and the aroma of flowers and fruits.

In the ethereal space, no buildings could be seen.

White magnolias bloom in profusion, covering the ground.

Fragrant and fragrant.

Many transparent crystal coffins stood upright, with exquisite garments hanging inside, dazzling Xuan Li.

"So beautiful~"

She praised it sincerely.

These clothes can be dignified and grand, pretty and charming, gentle and ethereal, or even dashing and neat.

Moreover, all of them perfectly matched Xuan Li's aesthetic standards.

"I just got a dress I really liked today, and then I had this dream tonight. Does it mean my good luck is coming soon?"

Xuan Li could hardly take it all in.

The next second, she suddenly woke up from her sleep.

In the quiet night breeze, Xuan Li remained bewildered for a long time.

"Hiss, why would I have such a dream?"

She patted her face, got out of bed, and Xuan Li walked to the window, where she saw Feng Siyue still sitting in the courtyard cultivating.

"This level of effort is beyond our reach."

After sighing, Xuan Li poured himself a cup of tea, drank it, and lay back down to sleep.

The next day, Feng Siyue woke Xuan Li up.

Xuan Li was still a little dazed when he opened his eyes.

Feng Siyue said,

"Get up, it's 1:15 AM."

Xuan Li struggled to open his eyelids, and said sleepily,

"It's still early."

Feng Siyue tempted her, "Don't you want to try the breakfast in Qianshui City?"

"Breakfast?"

When it comes to food, Xuan Li gets motivated.

"Okay, right away."

"I'll wait for you outside."

"Ah."

Xuan Li dozed off in bed for a while before sitting up with a jolt. She changed into the Jade Pure Snow dress she had bought yesterday and began to wash up.

After washing up, Xuan Li put on the mask symbolizing 'Ruan Ling', put on the hat, and then went out with Feng Siyue.

Dew and frost, the tips of grass twitch slightly.

One person departed on the wind.

Although I said I was going to the morning market, I actually just bought a pancake from a roadside vendor and set off for Hanxi Auction House.

Why aren't you wearing the clothes you bought yesterday?

Walking down the street, Xuan Li asked her.

"I bought it for you, but I won't wear it."

"Not wearing it?"

"What a beautiful dress! I said yesterday that it would suit you well, but you spoke up before I could."

Feng Siyue was slightly taken aback. "Suitable for me?"

"Yes, I already have one, so I only looked at this one because it suits you."

Feng Siyue then realized she had misunderstood and couldn't help but chuckle, "I didn't think that much about it, I thought you liked it."

"Then I'll wear it tomorrow."

Xuan Li nodded. "Alright then."

"The academy competition is just around the corner, and I'm determined to get a good ranking this time! My mother promised me that if I perform well, she'll give me that sixth-tier spiritual weapon..."

"really?"

"Wow, then you should prepare more pills!"

"I already bought them in advance. This morning, Hanxi Auction House restocked a batch of pills, and I bought several!"

As Feng Siyue and her companion entered, they passed by two girls who were coming from the front.

The two went upstairs.

Xuan Li asked curiously,

"The Academy Tournament? They're talking about the Five States Academy Tournament?"

Feng Siyue: "Judging by the time, the preliminary round of the Five States Academy Tournament will be in a month."

"Oh, sir! Good morning! Are you talking about the academy tournament?"

Cai Zhongxi happened to come down from the third floor.

When Feng Siyue saw him, she smiled and said, "Yes, I heard someone talking about this when I came here."

Cai Zhongxi smiled so hard his eyes narrowed.

"The academy competition is just around the corner, and the disciples of Qingli Academy are under a lot of pressure. These days, they have purchased a lot of pills at Hanxi Auction House and are making preparations."

Xuan Li asked curiously, "The Five States Academy Tournament... is it a competition held by all five states together?"

"No, first the state, then the five states."

Cai Zhongxi considered that the two might not have entered the academy for cultivation, so he explained, "A month later, all the academy disciples in Qinghe Luozhou will gather in Qingli for a half-month internal competition."

"The individual competition will determine the top ten, the top three in each profession such as beast taming, alchemy, talisman making, and formation, and the top three in the team competition."

"The Five Continents Academy Tournament will be held in Zhongzhou the following month."

Xuan Li said "Oh," and then asked, "So that means that a lot of people will be coming from various places in Qinghe and Luozhou over the next month?"

Manager Cai nodded.

"Qinghe Luozhou has a vast territory and 112 colleges of all sizes that meet the competition requirements. Each college should have about 10-15 people according to the above configuration."

"so much?"

Cai Zhongxi smiled and said, "To shine brightly in the Five States Academy Interstate Tournament is like soaring to the sky, with a smooth path ahead. Naturally, everyone would aspire to that."

At this point, Steward Cai asked another question, "Sir, aren't you planning to participate?"

Feng Siyue shook her head, "I won't participate."

Manager Cai asked, puzzled, "Why? With your talent, you're sure to be able to secure a place for yourself."
