Three months had passed and the Imperial City Martial Academy had finally arrived.

Xiao Yu did not have any lingering feelings towards the Giant Stone City, he only wanted to enter the Imperial City Martial Academy as soon as possible and increase his own strength to remove the Six Soul Lock Heart Incantation from Lin Yurou's body.

"The news has already spread throughout the city. The registration will start in three days." Yan Ziyu had heard from Xiao Yu that they wanted to take the Imperial City Martial Academy entrance exam.

"Three days later, so fast?" Xiao Yu was a little surprised, he did not expect that once the people from Imperial City Martial Academy arrived, they would immediately start registering.

He hadn't told Lin Yurou about this matter yet, so he didn't know if Lin Yurou would object.

There are a lot of people who want to enter the Imperial City Martial Academy, but Imperial City Martial Academy is not that easy to enter. This time, registration is actually just a screening exercise for the Imperial City Martial Academy, which will eliminate those who do not have enough strength first. " Yan Ziyu seemed to be very clear about this matter, and explained to Xiao Yu.

"So that's how it is." Xiao Yu nodded his head, there were indeed countless people who wanted to enter the Imperial City Martial Academy, but the average person did not have the qualifications to do so, so the actions of the Imperial City Martial Academy was understandable.

From the looks of it, this time's registration might not be that ordinary, the Imperial City Martial Academy would definitely use all sorts of methods to directly eliminate those with insufficient strength.

"With the Young Master Xiao's strength, after entering the Imperial City Martial Academy, you will definitely soar into the skies. Ziyu only hopes that after Young Master has great success, you do not forget about Ziyu." Yan Ziyu was half joking, her eyes were filled with a light smile, and she was so beautiful that it would shake one's soul.

"Naturally." Xiao Yu could hear the overtone behind Yan Ziyu's words. Back then, he had entrusted a task to Yan Ziyu to take care of Lin Yurou and he still owed him a favor.

Yan Ziyu seemed to be reluctant to part with him, but in reality, it was just because he was thinking about this favor that he understood in his heart.

After Yan Ziyu left, Xiao Yu went to Lin Yurou's room and checked his pulse once again. After confirming that the Six Soul Lock Heart Incantation was stable and there were no changes, he expressed his thoughts to Lin Yurou, "Mother, I plan to enter the Imperial City Martial Academy."

This was the first time Lin Yurou had talked about this matter, and he unexpectedly glanced at Xiao Yu.

Seeing Xiao Yu's resolute expression, Lin Yurou sighed in his heart.

She had seen all of Xiao Yu's changes and growth in these past few days. In a short three months, Xiao Yu had already become a Five Spirit Rivers from zero cultivation to now.

This kind of progress, made Lin Yurou feel both shocked and gratified.

In her heart, she only had a few years of life left. The only one who couldn't stop worrying was Xiao Yu. Now that Xiao Yu had grown up so fast, Lin Yurou felt a lot more at ease.

Moreover, with Xiao Yu's speed of growth, how could a mere Giant Stone City possibly contain him?

Back then, Lin Yurou had already left the Giant Stone City due to her astonishing innate talent. Now that Xiao Yu had such a thought, although it was unexpected, it felt like it was within reason.

After pondering for a moment, a smile appeared on Lin Yurou's face, and he said: "Yuer has grown up, no matter what you think, you just need to rest assured that mother will fully support you."

Hearing Lin Yurou's words, Xiao Yu's heart became a lot more at ease.

For the next three days, Xiao Yu stayed within the Drunken Star Tower, did not cultivate, and stayed by Lin Yurou's side every day.

During this time, he first went deeper into the Fallen Wind Mountain Range, and then made his move on the Wang Family. He was constantly busy, and had very little time to accompany Lin Yurou.

In this life, Xiao Yu and he had been relying on each other since childhood. In the past, when he was unable to cultivate, he would stay by Lin Yurou's side almost every day but now, in order to become stronger, he had many things to busy with.

After a few more days, the Martial Arts Academy's selection would begin, and there would be no time to spare.

Sensing Xiao Yu's feelings, Lin Yurou also knew Xiao Yu's filial piety and felt gratified in his heart.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these three days, the news of the competition between Medicine God Hall had long ago spread throughout the entire city and no one knew of it.

On this day, the Martial Arts Academy Selection's registration officially began. This attracted countless youths in the city. As long as they were under twenty years old and possessed a certain level of cultivation, they all came to try their luck and try to pass the registration.

Seeing how crowded the registration area was, Xiao Yu was shocked, the charm of Imperial City Martial Academy was indeed great, it had attracted almost all of the young people in the city.

At this moment, with a glance, he could see that there were a lot of people crowding around, so even a drop of water couldn't trickle through.

"Three Spirit River, medium potential, not qualified. Next!"

Xiao Yu did not immediately register, but observed the rules for registration from the side.

As there were too many people here, there were quite a few places that signed up. At this time, a seventeen or eighteen year old youth stood on a registration point closer to Xiao Yu.

The youth had an arrogant expression on his face. He shook his head disdainfully at the other youth who had come to register, coldly announcing the result.

The registered youngster's face was filled with disappointment as he walked off the stage in a daze.

"Only three Spirit River dare to register? "He's really reckless!"

"I wonder where this person got his courage from!"

The crowd looked at the youth walking down the stage with disdain. Some of them even started to mock him.

Among the countless youths, a Rank three cultivation was considered the lowest.

"Next!"

Following the voice of the arrogant youth on the stage, another person ascended the stage.

It was only then that Xiao Yu noticed that there was a stone tablet on the stage. The stone tablet was divided into twelve columns, and from top to bottom, each column had a number written in order, and each column had a number written from one to twelve.

The young man who had just come on stage walked up to the stone monument and his eyes narrowed. Then, he heavily punched on the square with the word "five" written on it.

With a light sound, a shallow fist mark was left on the stone monument. However, as the youth removed his hand, the fist mark started to recover at a slow speed.

The arrogant teenager at the side swept his eyes over them and said: "Five Spirit Rivers, medium potential, barely passed. Go down and register your name!"

The onstage youngster was overjoyed. He quickly walked off the stage to register.

After looking for a while more, Xiao Yu could already make a general idea of what happened.

The young man on the stage who was filled with pride should be a disciple of Imperial City Martial Academy, so facing the crowd of Giant Stone City, he was naturally full of pride.

As for the stone tablet, Xiao Yu recognized it after looking at it. This type of stone was called Non-Phase Profound Stone, and this stone did not have anything special about it.

The twelve grids on the stone tablet were of different degrees of hardness, and should represent the difference in strength between one Spirit River and the twelve Spirit River.

The rule for registration was that after going up on stage, the person's body would leave a mark on the monument, and whoever left a mark on the monument would be the owner of the Spirit River.

After leaving that mark on the stone stele, the faster it recovers, the less potential it has. On the other hand, the slower it recovers, the greater its potential.

With Five Spirit Rivers, their potential was above average, and they could sign up. But if they could not meet this requirement, they would be directly eliminated, and would not even have the qualifications to sign up!

After understanding these rules, Xiao Yu no longer watched. Just as he was about to step onto the stage, he heard an ice-cold voice from behind him.

"It's actually you, an ingrate?" I never thought that you would actually come to register as well. Do you really think that you can enter the Imperial City Martial Academy just because you possess a few Spirit River? "
