Chapter 92 Li Qiye Blocking the Door
Apocalypse City
The next day, the much-anticipated Jixia Academy exam finally began
Although it was only the first test of the school, the test location was chosen to be Qianjintai, the largest gambling house in Tianqi City.
In addition to the candidates, there were many other people who came to watch the excitement. They surrounded the outside and made it impossible for many candidates to enter.
Of course, this is not the main reason, because someone blocked the gate, making it impossible for candidates to enter.
This person is Li Qiye who came to collect the debt.
"What's going on? The exam is almost about to start, and they're not letting anyone in!" Someone couldn't help but complain loudly, his words full of dissatisfaction and anxiety.
"Who is this person? How dare he stop the school exam? Is he so bold?" another person asked curiously, his eyes fixed on the figure in front of him.
"Won't the City Defense Battalion arrest him?" someone else questioned, expressing confusion as to why the City Defense Battalion didn't take immediate action.
Although these candidates were unhappy, their faces were filled with pride, as if they were the best in the world.
After all, most of the people who come here to take the exam are dignitaries and children of aristocratic families. They have lived in a superior environment since childhood and are accustomed to being admired and respected.
Therefore, even in the face of such a situation, they still maintain a high-handed attitude.
Compared to ordinary people, it is not easy to take the imperial examination and enter the imperial academy.
The qualification of recommendation is in the hands of the major families and officials.
It is not that you can come to the academy to take the exam just because you have potential and are good at martial arts. There are quotas for this.
Therefore, all the candidates who can stand here have strong backgrounds.
At this moment, a soldier from the city defense camp stepped forward and shouted, "How dare you! Who are you to stop the imperial examination?"
However, facing the soldier's question, Li Qiye just looked at him coldly, his eyebrows like swords, with a fierce momentum.
Just this one glance made the soldier of the city defense camp feel a chill rising from his spine, and his body trembled involuntarily, as if he was suppressed by an invisible force.
"Qiye, what are you doing? Today is the school exam, don't make trouble! If this gets out of hand, you will become the target of public criticism," Lei Mengsha, who came hurriedly, whispered in Li Qiye's ear.
Lei Mengsha was so angry. He never thought that Li Qiye would be so crazy as to come and stop the academy's preliminary examination.
Li Qiye ignored Lei Mengsha, but took the Seven Star Sword, slowly stepped forward, and said loudly:
"Li Changsheng, the chief priest of the academy, owes me my hard-earned money. If you want to take part in the exam today, you can either ask that old man Li Changsheng to pay me back, or you can pay for it yourself and leave a toll for passing through. It's not expensive, only one thousand taels of gold per person."
Hearing this, the crowd outside Qianjintai suddenly exploded and shouted: "Damn, one thousand taels of gold, why don't you go and grab it!"
For a while, curses were heard one after another.
"Of course, if you don't agree, you can come and challenge me. As long as you can step over the sword in front of me, you can also go in."
Li Qiye looked calm as he placed the Seven Star Sword a foot in front of him. The sharp sword energy filled the air, startling everyone present. They only felt a tingling sensation on their skin.
"How arrogant! How dare you speak so brazenly? It's just a sword. Do you think we are afraid of you?"
"Hmph, let alone just stepping over that sword, even defeating you won't be a difficult task!"
Dozens of candidates were called Qi. Although they were born into extraordinary families, they were also outstanding in terms of strength.
"Let me try your sword!" A candidate came out with heavy steps, carrying a heavy black iron sword.
Every time he took a step, a footprint would sink.
Apparently the sword he was carrying was very heavy, and not something that an average person could handle.
"My name is Lin Zaiye. Swords have no eyes. If you don't want to die, get out of the way!" The man looked solemn.
"Draw your sword!" Li Qiye said slowly
Lin Zaiye swung the heavy black iron sword in the air, stirring up a strong wind. He lifted the heavy sword with ease, as if he was wielding an embroidery needle.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise
The heavy black iron sword was about to hit Li Qiye, but it was suddenly rebounded by a powerful force. Lin Zaiye was thrown out and fell heavily to the ground.
But Li Qiye stood there, motionless, without even drawing his sword.
"What? How is this possible?" Everyone was shocked and looked at this scene in disbelief.
If they hadn't really felt the strong wind generated when Lin Zaiye swung his sword, they would have thought it was a fake fight.
“I’ll do it!” Another young man stepped forward, and when he was about to touch Li Qiye, he was bounced away.
Then, several more candidates refused to believe in the evil, but they all failed.
"Make way!" Suddenly, there was an angry shout from the crowd. Someone rode over on a fierce horse. Just looking at the crowded crowd in front of him made him a little annoyed.
"Oh my god, why is that guy riding a horse here? He is another troublemaker."
Lei Mengsha exclaimed, used his Qinggong to leap over, stepped on Baili Dongjun's horse, grabbed his collar with one hand, and threw him out.
Baili Dongjun flew over the huge crowd and fell right in front of Li Qiye in full view of everyone.
“Little Jerry, you don’t have to be so polite to me.” Li Qiye lowered his head and smiled at Baili Dongjun who was lying on the ground.
"Brother Qiye..." Baili Dongjun climbed up, scratched his head awkwardly, and complained about Lei Mengsha in his heart.
"Your appearance is really unique!" Ye Dingzhi in the crowd also walked over with a smile on his face.
Baili Dongjun looked around and asked in confusion, "Isn't this the school exam? Why are you all gathered here and not going in?"
Afterwards, Ye Dingzhi whispered a few words in his ear, and Baili Dongjun suddenly understood.
"Brother Qiye, I didn't bring enough money this time. Can you pay the toll next time?" Baili Dongjun asked
"Since you are so sensible and you brought me some wine, I won't charge you this time. Come in!" Li Qiye said calmly.
"Okay, thank you Brother Qiye," Baili Dongjun said with a smile
Ye Dingzhi, who was standing by, seemed to be short of money. He was not familiar with Li Qiye and took a few steps back.
As for going in like those people, he thought about it and decided not to. Even if he died here, he would not be able to overcome the sword standing here.
Baili Dongjun looked back at Ye Dingzhi who was hesitating, and immediately said: "Brother Qiye, can you let him go in with me?"
"It's on your account!" Li Qiye replied.
"Ye Dingzhi, let's go in." Baili Dongjun raised his eyebrows and walked into Qianjintai with a step that did not recognize any relatives.
Chapter 93 Public opinion wins gold
Inside Qianjin Terrace, the owner of this place, Master Tu, sat on a high platform and watched everything. On either side of him were two young and beautiful concubines, who were waving fans for him.
It is early winter now, but the bloated Mr. Tu is sweating profusely, waving his fan.
But after seeing what was happening outside the door, he couldn't help but say, "Master Liu Yue, that person is trying to stop your school from taking the exam. Do you need me to send someone to drive the troublemaker away?"
Sitting in the sedan chair, with gauze hanging down and covering his entire appearance, Master Liu Yue replied: "I think you'd better not send anyone, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your Qianjintai today."
"Oh? Is that man very powerful?" Uncle Tu took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"More than just powerful, that man is a sword immortal!" Young Master Liu Yue sighed.
"Ah!" Uncle Tu was so shocked that he almost dropped the fan in his hand.
"Then... could he be the swordsman who competed with Mr. Li that night?"
"That's right," Young Master Liu Yue nodded.
The child sitting beside the sedan chair asked, "Sir, the time for the first test is about to come, and there are only two people coming in now, so we..."
"Go tell the people outside that if they haven't come in within one incense stick, they don't have to take the exam," said Master Liu Yue calmly.
"But..." The little boy hesitated.
"I think the teacher knows what's going on here. He didn't care, which means he has agreed. We should just proceed as usual." The chief examiner, Mr. Liu Yue, was calm and not panicked or anxious.
Besides, even if he was anxious, it would be useless. This man could only be dealt with by Mr.
Outside the palace, a group of people were cursing, but no one could get through.
No matter how strong the attack was, it would be bounced back when it reached within one foot of Li Qiye.
"Everyone, get out of the way!"
Suddenly, a somewhat heroic female voice sounded
The person who came was a beautiful woman with a graceful figure. She was wearing a white robe with a big word "gamble" on it, and a purple dress underneath.
Her arrival instantly attracted many people's attention, and they all looked sideways.
Yin Luoxia came to Li Qiye with a few light steps and said softly, "I wonder if I can go in?"
"You..." Li Qiye raised his lips, revealing a sly smile as he looked at Yin Luoxia and said, "Just kiss me and you can get in."
The next moment, before Yin Luoxia could even open her mouth, someone shouted angrily: "Fuck! This guy is so shameless, trying to take advantage of a girl!"
"It's disgraceful and unworthy of a human being!"
"Girl, please don't agree. We will open up a path for you even if we have to risk our lives." A group of people were filled with righteous indignation, but no one rushed forward.
"Humph! I thought you were a gentleman, you scoundrel!" Yin Luoxia snorted coldly, her face slightly red, she stepped on Li Qiye and quickly walked inside.
Li Qiye just smiled and did not stop him.
At this time, another person dressed as a Taoist priest came up, but he looked a little lazy and listless, and there were two mustaches on his upper lip.
"Hey, sir, can you let me in too?" The Taoist priest had a faint smile on his face and carried an exquisite wooden sword on his back.
"Master Hua, it's you..." Li Qiye stretched out his voice and looked at the Taoist in front of him with a smile.
"What Taoist Master Hua? I am Zhao Yujia." Wang Yihang raised his head and refused to admit
“Well… OK, pay the money!” Li Qiye didn’t care. In fact, Qingcheng Mountain still owed him a big favor.
"Then more... what? Pay the money!" Wang Yihang was stunned at first, then his eyes widened.
"You want to get in without paying? There's no door. Do you want to take the bully route? Or you can 'try' to get in." Li Qiye crossed his arms and sneered.
Wang Yixing shuddered and said bitterly, "Sir, I am really short of money. I have no money at all."
“Haha, you guys in Qingcheng Mountain are the leader of the Taoist sects, with a lot of incense. Are you still worried about not having money?” Li Qiye sneered.
When he has time, he must go to Qingcheng Mountain to make some fortune. Invisibly, he can help Zhao Yuzhen get rid of his calamity and make Qingcheng Mountain flourish for another hundred years. It wouldn't be expensive to ask for 1.8 million taels of gold.
Suddenly, a little boy walked out of the Qianjin Terrace and said loudly: "Exam candidates, if you have not entered to take the preliminary examination within one stick of incense, you do not need to come anymore."
After that, the boy took out a stick of incense, lit it, and stuck it into the ground.
"What?!" Everyone exclaimed and began to get anxious.
But after looking at Li Qiye who was like a door god, dozens of candidates started to feel troubled again. They had no idea how to get through!
If he couldn't even touch the opponent, how could he jump over the sword in front of him?
"Insider information! There must be an inside story! This is not fair. Those three people went in directly. I'm afraid they were invited by your school and deliberately blocked us from entering." A young man suddenly had an idea and said
"That's right! Since your school has already reserved the candidates, why did you make us come all the way here? Are you trying to play a trick on us?"
Many people began to feel indignant and put the blame on the school. Some even blamed Li Changsheng, the chief priest of the Jixia Academy.
After all, Li Qiye was fighting against Li Changsheng because he owed him money, so he blocked them from entering.
"This matter has nothing to do with our school. Everything is fair and just," the little boy said.
"Then why is this person blocking us? Why doesn't your school get rid of him?"
Under the influence of public opinion, the child's forehead was sweating, and he didn't know how to explain it.
Li Qiye is a sword immortal. Even if all of them were combined, they would not be his opponent. This is a great Buddha. Who can invite him away? Except for Mr. Li,
Some people even suspected that this person might be Li Changsheng's illegitimate son!
Because they both have the surname Li, and they became sword immortals at such a young age, so they came here to find Li Changsheng to recognize their relatives.
"Hey, Qiye, forget it and stop making trouble here." Seeing the situation getting worse, Lei Mengsha couldn't help but persuade him. If this continues, the reputation of the school will be lost.
But in fact, Lei Mengsha was still a little happy inside.
