Chapter 1709: Chapter 1709: Passing the Imperial Examination
Faced with everyone’s congratulations, Meng Po handled the situation much more gracefully than Qi Wen.
"Tomorrow we will be entering the Magistrate’s residence, will the two of you also be attending?"
With Meng Po present, Qi Wen was unwilling to speak.
Meng Po was truly adaptable in all situations. "Of course, we must go and meet the official."
Zhang Dong was standing beside Qi Wen, who had already spotted the rector’s attendant student next to him.
Earlier, she hadn’t gone over to see, so she didn’t know how many from the academy succeeded. Meng Po was busy and overwhelmed.
He cupped his hands in a departing gesture. Once he left the crowd, the attendant student quickly approached, "Sir."
"Did the rector come?"
"Yes, he’s at the inn."
"How many from our academy made it?"
"Besides the two, four others succeeded."
"Mm-hmm. Have those four come over?"
"All have come. They are over there."
Qi Wen saw ten classmates, this was for those who had confidence to come over, unexpectedly only four succeeded.
Since she saw them, she certainly had to go over.
All ten classmates congratulated Qi Wen.
"Thank you."
The rest did not, having been together for a year, all knew that this person was always indifferent, definitely not changed by the success in examinations.
"Sir, the rector said he would visit your home in the evening."
Qi Wen nodded, looked at the ten classmates, "If everyone doesn’t mind, let’s go together."
Of course, no one would refuse such a good opportunity. Having such connections is beneficial, without them one would still wish to foster close ties; it’s such a rare chance.
Qi Wen didn’t like being pointed at and talked about, so she informed her classmates to notify Zhang Dong and Meng Po, then she returned home.
The classic scene truly appeared. On the way, she indeed encountered a few sedan chairs, all with maids outside them.
Qi Wen thought to herself, you are expressing the wrong sentiment. She was not fond of women.
Upon reaching home, she told Zhang Sheng there would be guests tonight, and quite a few.
Zhang Sheng immediately went out to buy supplies, and his wife began preparations.
Qi Wen felt bored at home. She really had no solution; it was her idea, yet she still felt bored.
Gu Ersheng felt comfortable seeing his little girl’s expression, knowing her well, recognizing she was irritated, he thought to help them and hasten their return.
Qi Yan hadn’t sent any message, it was unclear when they would come.
Thinking it over, it seemed quite nice; all familiar with the underworld’s work processes.
Su Yuanyuan here awaited the return of Qi Hao and Qi Xuan from retreat.
Now in Starry Realm, the most bustling place was Xuantian Sect.
All Great Powers were gathered here. They were all waiting for the Ascension Channel to be repaired. None dared to rush things, they could only wait patiently.
At home, only five remained, with Qi Hao and Qi Xuan eager for Mahayana, but Tan Shaoting stopped them.
"No need to rush, don’t hurry, you both go to the Trial Tower instead."
The brothers obeyed without question.
Qi Hong also went along, outside Xuantian Sect’s Trial Tower, the cultivators who really had the first rights to enter were the Tan Family.
Left only the couple, Tan Shaoting was in the space pestering his wife.
"Yuanyuan, I never imagined I would have a day for Ascension, now it’s approaching closer, I feel it’s nothing much."
"Of course, it’s nothing much."
"Ahem, thinking about it, it’s indeed rather simple, step by step reaching today without major waves."
"Our family will certainly be together again."
"Absolutely. Are you overthinking things again?"
Tan Shaoting laughed, "No. Just suddenly feeling emotional."
The long-armed ape approached, "Master, if worst comes to worst, there is still Ascension Grass."
"Try not to use it, we’ll discuss later."
Now Su Yuanyuan already had a plan.
The steward arrived, the couple went out.
"Ancestor, Bishui Daojun wishes to meet."
"Let them in."
Chen Xue Man had now fully regained memories of her past life, seeing Su Yuanyuan who was soon ready for Ascension, her heart was full of emotions.
Su Yuanyuan gave Tan Shaoting a look, and he left.
Now only the two of them remained.
"You remember everything now?"
Chen Xue Man sighed, "Yes, I remember."
"Then work hard. You just reached Divinity Transformation; wanting to Ascend with us may not be likely."
"But I will certainly try hard. This was something given by my father, I think it’s related to Ascension. Take it; use it directly when needed."
"Alright, I will use it appropriately. Will you be alright at this stage?"
"Mm, until the later stage of Divinity Transformation, there should be no issue."
"Good, I’ll be waiting for your good news."
"I must try; if it still doesn’t work, I hope you can send a message for me to my father once you Ascend."
"No problem. I can do that."
The two didn’t have much else to say. Thus, Chen Xue Man got up to leave.
Su Yuanyuan sighed, hoping this one could Ascend together. Even if not, it wouldn’t make much difference.
Tan Shaoting came out from Huai Sheng Mountain having received news from Zhu Huai’en.
The two arrived at Tribulation Mountain,
"We have never competed before."
Tan Shaoting nodded, "Let’s give it a try."
The two had just started fighting when they felt intense fluctuations in Spiritual Power.
Both paused, "Tian Yan Mahayana."
The two quickly appeared in front of Tian Yan’s cave, placing the Spirit Gathering Array and top-grade spiritual stones together.
Feng Yan also appeared, "Master once said to use the Spirit Vein for him."
He said this while the Spirit Vein had already been placed into the Gathering Array, saving quite a bit of hassle.
Yu Huping, Liu Xiaozhu, and Sun Qizheng appeared too.
At times like this, external cultivators wouldn’t show up. Now is a dangerous time.
Everyone was watching Tian Yan’s cave,
"Mahayana won’t be a problem."
Zhu Huai’en thought even the Heavenly Tribulation wouldn’t be a large issue. Tan Shaoting gave everyone a piece, ensuring greater confidence for the Heavenly Tribulation.
With the Spirit Vein’s Spiritual Power supply, Tian Yan’s progression came with little disturbance.
External sect cultivators watched from below, thinking that another Mahayana was added to the sect, but actually, their pressure wasn’t too great.
Xuantian Sect’s masters had all Ascended; in the future, would they face a lack of successors? At that time, their sect might stand a chance.
Three days later, Tian Yan Mahayana emerged from retreat.
Seeing everyone outside, he smiled and nodded, the Heavenly Tribulation would soon come, but now he was unafraid. Looking at Tan Shaoting, "Please invite Master Su over."
"He’s waiting for you at Tribulation Mountain."
Tian Yan smiled, quickly appearing at Tribulation Mountain.
Upon seeing Su Yuanyuan, Tian Yan was truly at ease, regardless of necessity, he felt assured.
His Heavenly Tribulation was also forty-nine bouts, its intensity similar to Zhu Huai’en’s. But after twenty rounds, he held a Thunder Stone in his hand.
Although very ragged by the end, he successfully overcame the Heavenly Tribulation, now too weak to laugh out loud, yet a smile graced his lips.
The Heart Demon Tribulation made him find it astonishing, feeling like a big villain; he almost overturned Xuantian Sect, how was that possible?
To him, Xuantian Sect felt like home, hence his Heart Demon Tribulation quickly passed. The Heavenly Dao’s gift made him feel as though he had Ascension within reach.
