109 Xuanbing Academy Competition [II]

“Grand elder, I’m back. I was delayed a while on the way, is it too late for me to come back? I think the college competition has already begun.”

Shen Lingyun controlled her excitement at this time, and said, “It’s okay, it’s not too late. I’m afraid you won’t be able to catch up, I arranged for the students of the earth, thunder and wind elements to compete first. Let all the attributes of the students of your branch be tendered for registration. Tomorrow will be the turn of the gold series, you can rest for two days before participating in the competition.”

Hearing this, Bu Wenle finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Thank you, grand elder, for making you worry.”

Shen Lingyun finally showed a sweet smile, as if she was a child who had just done a good deed. Then she took out a file bag from the table and handed it to Bu Wenle, and said: “Wenle, this is the time arrangement and precautions for this college competition. I will arrange your room and board in a while, and you will be here in the main academy.”

After Bu Wenle took it, he opened it and glanced at it, and then put it into his space ring. Then Bu Wenle said to Shen Lingyun. “Thank you, grand elder, for the arrangement. If it’s okay, I’ll retire first.”

Shen Lingyun glanced at Bu Wenle resentfully, and said to herself: you’re in a hurry to leave again, am I just annoying you like that? Then she said in a clear voice, “Wenle, you have been cultivating with the students for over the past year. Is your injury better now?”

After hearing what Shen Lingyun said, Bu Wenle was too embarrassed to leave immediately, and said, “Well, my injury has improved a lot. But the progress of the students’ cultivation this year has been better than I imagined. You will be there, and see their performance in the competition.”

Shen Lingyun nodded and said, “That’s good. By the way, I’d better tell you something. Half a year ago, Mei’er’s parents sent someone to ask about your whereabouts. I told them, You guys are doing retreats in the secret cultivation place of the academy, so it’s inconvenient to tell them, so I sent them back.”

Bu Wenle frowned, nodded slightly, and asked, “Did they say anything else?”

.....

Shen Lingyun said: “No, they were just very anxious to know Mei’er’s whereabouts, and didn’t say anything else. Wenle, where have you been all this while? Why haven’t any news come back? It hurts my heart. There’s no end to it. Mei’er’s status is special, if something happens, the academy won’t be able to take care of it.”

Bu Wenle pondered for a while, shook his head gently, and said, “Just think that this is a secret cultivation place in our branch, I will be responsible for safety. If there is nothing else, I will go back first. Now, the students are waiting for my news below.”

After speaking, Bu Wenle turned around and walked away. As soon as he opened the door, he almost collided with a person outside the door.

“Director Wang? Are you looking for the grand elder?” Bu Wenle took a closer look, and it turned out to be Director Wang who was in charge of managing the library. Because Bu Wenle often goes in and out of the library, he has a deep impression on Director Wang.

Seeing that it was Bu Wenle, Director Wang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled at Bu Wenle, and said, “Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Bu Wenle. Hello, I’m here to ask the grand elder to do something.”

Bu Wenle replied: “Oh, then you can do it first, I’m leaving.” After that, he turned and left.

Watching Bu Wenle walk away, Director Wang turned around. Looking inside the door, grand elder Shen Lingyun was staring at him with his eyes in the room.

Director Wang hurriedly walked into the room and said to Shen Lingyun, “President, I’m here to tell you that Mr. Bu Wenle brought five students from the branch to the main hospital just now.”

Speaking of this, Director Wang looked up at Shen Lingyun, who was still staring at him, and immediately lowered his head and said, “However, it seems that I am still late, so it turns out that Teacher Bu Wenle came directly to see the grand elder. That’s fine. If so, I’ll go first.”

After speaking, Director Wang turned around and was about to leave. However, Shen Lingyun called out, “Director Wang.”

“Yes, what can I do for the grand elder?” Director Wang immediately turned around and asked respectfully.

Shen Lingyun finally relaxed her tensed face and said to Director Wang: “Director Wang, go back and arrange room and board for the elder Bu Wenle and his five students. During the college competition, they will stay in the main sect for a period of time. You are responsible for arranging their accommodation, understand?”

Director Wang nodded with a smile and said, “Yes, grand elder, I understand. Then I’ll leave first.” After speaking, Director Wang immediately turned around and left.

After resting for two days in the main academy, in the early morning of the third day, Bu Wenle gathered everyone together. “From today, it’s the turn of the students of the water department. Therefore, Mei’er is also the first one among you to participate in the academy competition. Mei’er, you have the confidence to do well in this competition, don’t you?”

Mei’er hit his small flat chest and said, “Have confidence. Let’s all look at me!”

Bu Wenle smiled slightly and said, “Okay, just have confidence. Today’s game is not difficult. According to the registration form, there are more students in the water department than other departments, because the students in the water department are the most in the academy, so there are over five hundred students who signed up.”

“They”re many.”

“Yes, and there are four days of competition in the water system, with one game in the morning and one in the afternoon. All of them are knockout rounds. So, if you want to compete for the top few, you must win all the way.”

After Bu Wenle finished speaking, Mei’er nodded, indicating that he understood. He must work hard to get the two games today.

Although Mei’er was the only one participating in the competition today, everyone came to the arena to cheer him up.

The arena was large, circular, and surrounded by stepped auditoriums. The place was enough to hold 20,000 to 30,000 people watching the game at the same time. Because it occupied a large area, the entire arena was open-air, and there was only one roof above the stage.

After entering the arena, Wang Wei, Lu Wenfeng, Fatty and Bu Yueyue went directly to the auditorium. Bu Wenle took Mei’er to the registration office, and he was called by the selection to enter the venue.

At this time, there was still some time before the start of the competition, and the students who signed up for the competition were drawing numbers to enter the arena one by one. Because all the five hundred and twelve water spirit masters who signed up in the morning had to play a knockout match, there were many people at the entrance and it was very chaotic.

The audience came to watch the game, but there were more than four thousand or five thousand people. After all, the five-year college competition was rare, and each student could only catch up to two or three years from the beginning of enrollment and graduate.

After half an hour, the students who signed up for the competition finally got their numbers and entered the arena.

At this time, the voice of the instructor came from the platform. The sound was enhanced through spiritual power, so although the whole arena was noisy, everyone heard it.

“Students, be quiet. Today’s competition is about to start, and now the contestants are invited to line up to enter the arena.”
