Chapter 72

Ye Shi was walking on the road, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had snatched back what originally belonged to him.

Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi's expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the stone that Zhuang Yu liked just now happened to be the one that I liked." Ye Shi was a little confused, and he and Zhuang Yu seemed to bump into each other every time.

"Your vision is very good. That stone should not be an ordinary ink stone, but a mysterious one. That's why Zhuang Yu's reaction is like that." Mu Chen explained calmly.

Ye Shi was stunned for a moment, turned his head, looked at Mu Chen, frowned, and said thoughtfully, "Did you know this long ago?" That's why it was so refreshing when buying ink stones.

Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, when I saw that stone, I thought it was very strange. I am an alchemist, and my soul power is relatively strong and my senses are relatively sharp." In fact, Mu Chen is a little bit more I didn't feel it at all. If Mu Chen felt it, Ye Shi and Zhuang Yu wouldn't be able to pick it up. The protagonist's halo is something that not everyone can have.

"Then why did you buy three? It just feels weird to have only one." Ye Shi said puzzled.

Mu Chen smiled brightly at Ye Shi and said, "Of course it's to hide people's eyes and ears."

Ye Shi blinked and said a little apologetically, "Mu Chen, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. I thought you would be rippling with Primordial Stone."

Mu Chen smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, I think you're complimenting my acting skills..."

"That Zhuang Yu, I feel like my nemesis and nemesis. I don't know what would have happened if you paid a little too late!" Ye Shi exhaled and shook his head.

Mu Chen squinted, if he took a step slower just now, then Lan Ruofeng should bid with him, then it would not be a matter of spending an extra 60,000 stone and buying two more ink stones.

There was clearly something wrong with Lan Ruofeng's attitude just now. He seemed to know that his ink stone was not simple.

In the book, Zhuang Yu has a natural eye, but he can help a few real players and pick up a lot of leaks. Zhuang Yu has been with Lan Ruofeng for so long now, and Lan Ruofeng should have also gained something from Zhuang Yu. There are few benefits. Just now, Lan Ruofeng took the lead for Zhuang Yu, maybe, not just to please Zhuang Yu, but...

Mu Chen kept thinking that if Zhuang Yu didn't have the ability to have a natural eye, he might not be able to defend those few real attacks, and those few real attacks might not really like Zhuang Yu, but they just used each other.

…………

Mu Chen and Ye Shi did not go back to the low-level alchemist guild. Mu Chen rented a special training room in the imperial capital. Although it was a bit expensive for 2,000 yuan a day, the training room was highly confidential. What's going on inside, no one will know.

When Mu Chen arrived in the training room, he used the purchased star grass to mix it into a fire-melting liquid according to the author's book, put the "ink stone" in it and soaked it, and the substance on the surface of the "ink stone" quickly melted away. , revealing its true colors.

"So beautiful!" Ye Shi couldn't help saying looking at the demon core in Mu Chen's hand.

"You shake it and see." Mu Chen said.

As soon as Ye Shi grabbed the demon core, a gentle spiritual energy, like a trickle of science, flowed into Ye Shi's body, and Ye Shi flushed with excitement.

Mu Chen closed the training room, and Ye Shi took turns using the demon core to improve his strength.

…………

The entrance of Saint Star Academy is crowded with people.

The most outstanding teenagers of the Xuanfeng Empire are all concentrated here.

Bi Lin frowned and said: "The seventh prince of the empire just now seems to be only fourteen years old, and he is already a two-star martial artist."

Shui Qiancheng frowned and smiled bitterly in his heart. After entering the imperial capital, Shui Qiancheng had an ominous premonition when he saw a young man who was better than the other. At this moment, this premonition was even stronger.

Mu Hong's face was a little gloomy. He thought that his strength as a four-star warrior was considered strong, but only then did he realize that he was nothing.

Chen Yuetian lowered his head, said nothing, and his face was not very good.

"This time, the few of us are afraid to hang." Bi Lin sighed.

"How did these people cultivate, how can they be so powerful!" Chen Yuetian frowned, a little puzzled.

Qian Dongting smiled and said indifferently: "Don't be too discouraged, the young people of the imperial family have been in medicinal baths since childhood, tempering their muscles and bones, they practiced earlier than you, and their skills are higher than you. One or even several levels up."

"The amount of primeval stones you can use in a year may be no more than a month's pocket money for a young boy from a big family in the imperial capital. Your starting point is different. Of course, there will be a gap between you and these people. If you want to achieve success in cultivation, resources, opportunities, and qualifications , none of them can be missing.”

Qian Dongting smiled lightly, sighed, and said, "Compared with these people, all you can do is work harder. However, in fact, the young people of the imperial family have faced fiercer competition than you since childhood. Your focus is far more than yours."

"When I came out this time, I realized how much I used to sit and watch the sky. After returning to the family, I will definitely practice hard." Chen Yuetian gritted his teeth.

Qian Dongting smiled and said, "Perhaps, the elders of your family did not expect you to be selected and let you out, but to let you see the world."

Chen Yuetian suddenly remembered what his grandfather explained to himself before he left. At that time, Chen Yuetian felt that his grandfather's attitude was too negative. Before he tried, his grandfather seemed to have already decided that he could not succeed. Now that I think about it, my grandfather was actually careful. Good suffering!

"Strange! Mu Chen and Ye Shi don't seem to be here yet." Bi Lin muttered.

"Yes!" Chen Yuetian said.

"What are Mu Chen and Ye Shi doing! With their strengths, it should be proper to pass the selection." Bi Lin muttered.

Shui Qiancheng thoughtfully said: "Could it be that something happened to them!"

"Isn't Mu Chen a guest of the low-level alchemist guild? What accident will happen to him!" Chen Yuetian said with disapproval.

Shui Qiancheng frowned and said, "Actually, I heard that Mu Chen seems to have fallen out with Xie Danyan, the granddaughter of the low-level pharmacist's guild. Mu Chen and Ye Shi have moved out from the low-level pharmacist's guild."

Chen Yuetian said in surprise: "He and Xie Danyan fell out, why?"

Shui Qiancheng shrugged and said, "I don't know the specific situation, but I heard that there was a falling out."

…………

Ye Wu stood on the side with a pale face. Before Ye Xun left, he gave Ye Ming 50,000 yuan of stone. Ye Wu's mother also gave Ye Wu a private house of 20,000 yuan. Ye Wu thought that so many primeval stones were enough to support him. He went to the Shengxing Academy for selection, and it turned out that he was very wrong.

The price of the imperial capital is astonishingly expensive, and the amount of primeval stone in their hands is simply not enough. There are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the imperial capital, and anyone who comes out can trample them to death.

On the first day Ye Wu arrived in the imperial capital, he had a conflict with a young man in the imperial capital, and he was slapped hard, and Ye Wu suddenly stopped a lot.

Originally in the Ye family, he was the young master of the Ye family, and people in the city would give him some face. However, in the imperial capital, he was just an ant. If someone beat him up, he could only apologize with a smile on his face. Ye Wu grew up as a child. I have never suffered such grievances since I was a child.

Ye Rong said worriedly: "What should I do, those people seem to be very powerful!"

These days they have been very poor, they can't find a place to live, and they can only sleep on the streets. The aborigines in the imperial capital are all high and high, and those people look at them like they are looking at beggars.

Ye Cheng gritted his teeth and secretly regretted it. If he knew earlier, he shouldn't have let his parents rob him of this admissions book.

Ye Wu gritted his teeth and said, "I heard that this selection depends not only on strength, but also on aptitude."

Ye Rong couldn't help but let out a sigh. Although she didn't want to admit it, Ye Rong also knew that with their level, it would be very difficult for them to be selected. If they couldn't be selected, how would they go back! On the way here, the primeval stones given by their father had already been squandered by them.

"Master Ye Shi, I haven't come yet." Ye Ming said with a frown.

"Maybe something happened to him on the way and he can't come." Ye Rong squinted and said maliciously.

"It shouldn't be!" Ye Ming shook his head and said.

When he arrived at the imperial capital, Ye Ming understood completely. Ye Xun hoped that some of his three children could join the Saint Star Academy, and the possibility of changing the fate of the Ye family was extremely slim. , on such a son who is not loved by Ye Xun.

Cheng Wan Bai shuttled through the crowd, his eyes swept across the teenagers from time to time.

"Wan Bai, what are you looking for!" Xie Danyan asked.

Cheng Wan Bai frowned and said, "I'm looking for a young man named Mu Chen, do you know him? He's a very talented alchemist."

Xie Danyan rolled his eyes and said, "How did you find that liar!"

"Liar?" Cheng Wan Bai said with a frown.

Xie Danyan nodded and said, "Yeah! He scammed my grandfather for 600,000 yuan, and then hid. I think he probably absconded with donations."

Cheng Wan Bai shook his head and said, "Although, I don't know why you said that, but I don't think Mu Chen is that kind of person. His alchemy skills are really superb."

"Wan Bai, I know you have a good eye, but this time, I'm afraid you really missed it." Xie Danyan shook his head and said.

Cheng Wan Bai smiled undeniably, and didn't say anything more. Xie Danyan would take a fancy to Lan Ruofeng, and the other men were not in her eyes at all. No matter how good Mu Chen was, she couldn't see Ye Shi now.

…………

"Quick, quick, quick." Mu Chen took Ye Shi's hand and quickly dragged Ye Shi forward.

Ye Shi quickly moved his legs and followed closely behind Mu Chen.

The two ran out of breath, and finally caught up before the registration was over.

"I've only come here now, and I don't take admissions seriously. With this attitude, I still want to pass the assessment and dream!" A beautiful-looking woman looked at Mu Chen and Ye Shi with contempt.

Ye Shi blushed, and he didn't want to, but it was so comfortable to practice with the demon core, and he forgot the time of course, and indulged himself in the practice. The same was true for Mu Chen. When God is over, the time is almost over.

"Mr. Wu Yue, this time, you have misunderstood. These two are martial masters, and their qualifications are really good." Yan Li next to Wu Yue looked at the two with a little admiration.

Mu Chen and Ye Shi looked at the man gratefully.

Wu Yue looked at Mu Chen and Ye Shi, curled her lips, and said, "What's the use of being strong, the devil knows, what method did these two use to improve their current strength, maybe their potential has been overdrawn."

Yan Li smiled helplessly and said, "Teacher Wu Yue, these two teenagers have a solid foundation."

Wu Yue looked at the two of them, sneered, and said: "You two, don't think that if you have a little talent, you can take Joe, Saint Star Academy, there are many more talented and stronger people than you."

Mu Chen frowned, and secretly said: This woman must have reached menopause, she is really irritable.

Ye Shi gritted his teeth reluctantly, but didn't say much.

Yan Li looked at the two of them and said, "Looking at the appearance of the two of you, you should have just been promoted, and you have rushed over as soon as you advanced. You should find a place to rest, and you will have the next test soon."

Mu Chen hurriedly pulled Ye Shi and nodded towards Yan Li, "Thank you, mentor."

Wu Yue snorted coldly and said, "You two, do it yourself."

Yan Li smiled helplessly. Wu Yue has a son, Wu Zhan, with good qualifications. He is a student of the Holy Star Academy and a sixteen-year-old two-star warrior. Wu Yue has always been proud of his son. Seeing that his qualifications are better than his own son, But an ordinary boy from an ordinary background, he always likes to stab a few words.
