Rise from a Low-class Family to Martial Artist

Chapter 446: Chapter 19: You Are Not Murong Shuang, You Are Murong Fu (Part 2)

”Thank you, Dean,” Lin Chen nodded in agreement.

”Yes, pack your things, you’re going to stay at Lingxiao Martial Academy for three months.”

Lin Chen left the main hall, and after he departed, the vice deans no longer held their composure and smiles appeared on their faces.

”After all these years, this is the first time Lingxiao Martial Academy has proactively invited our academy’s disciple to be an exchange student.”

”Haha, to save face, Lingxiao Martial Academy had no other choice. Otherwise, the ridicule from the martial artists in Lingxiao City would be enough to make Lingxiao Martial Academy hang its head in shame.”

The situation in Lingxiao City is different from the capital. In the capital of Liang, there are not many martial artists from other countries, but Lingxiao City gathers martial artists from the Nine Kingdoms, and many pieces of news cannot be suppressed.

”If it weren’t for this reason, Lingxiao Martial Academy wouldn’t have been willing to take such an extravagant step this time.”

The invitation from Lingxiao Martial Academy, with the treatment offered to Lin Chen during his exchange, could be said to set a record for exchange students from martial arts academies.

Hua Qianwu stroked his beard, the fact that Lin Chen was cultivating the Nine Revolutions True Blood Refining the Viscera was unknown to these three juniors. Compared to the other benefits offered by Lingxiao Martial Academy, what truly caught his attention was the opening of the Lingxiao Hall to Lin Chen.

Among the Four Great Martial Arts Academies, apart from Qingyun Martial Academy and the Capital Martial Academy being located in the capital as required by the Imperial Court, Lingxiao Martial Academy and their Canglan Martial Academy chose their addresses for special reasons.

The Canglan Sea waves felt during the initial entry ceremony by Lin Chen and others represent the foundation of Canglan Martial Academy.

However, given Lin Chen’s current strength, he is not yet able to enter the Canglan Sea Region. In contrast, Lin Chen can enter Lingxiao Hall at Lingxiao Martial Academy.

The Lingxiao Stone inside Lingxiao Hall is something Lin Chen can use.

At first, he thought about how to obtain Lingxiao Stone from Lingxiao Martial Academy, knowing that from what he understood of Lingxiao Martial Academy, acquiring some Lingxiao Stone was possible. However, obtaining more would definitely require Lingxiao Martial Academy’s agreement and some exchange.

The arrival of representatives from Xiang Kingdom and Zheng Kingdom’s martial academies presented an opportunity. Without him needing to say a word, Lingxiao Martial Academy proposed it themselves.

...

...

After leaving the main hall, Lin Chen didn’t return to his own courtyard but instead went to Senior Sister Jiang’s courtyard.

”Junior Brother Lin, what brings you here?”

Jiang Qing’s brows showed surprise upon seeing Lin Chen.

Lin Chen glanced around and noticed not only the senior sister present, but also Murong Yan and two other senior sisters from the previous class.

With outsiders present, Lin Chen just smiled without answering.

”Since Junior Brother Lin came to find Junior Sister Jiang, we won’t disturb you.”

The two senior sisters, perceptive as they were, stood up with smiles, and as they passed by Lin Chen, they slightly nodded as a greeting.

After the two senior sisters gracefully left, Murong Yan also stood up, though her movements were a bit slower. As she passed Lin Chen, a fragrance lingered, and she winked at Lin Chen.

”Senior Sister, I’m going to Lingxiao Martial Academy.”

Jiang Qing, knowing that Junior Brother Lin had come to her for a reason, was surprised to hear he was going to Lingxiao Martial Academy?

”Is it representing our academy for an exchange with Lingxiao Martial Academy?”

”No, rather, it’s as an exchange student to stay at Lingxiao Martial Academy for three months.”

Facing Jiang Qing, Lin Chen explained why Lingxiao Martial Academy had invited him to the academy for a three-month exchange.

After listening, Jiang Qing’s pretty face showed a smile, ”I see, Lingxiao Martial Academy wants Junior Brother to help them save face.”

Looking at Junior Brother Lin standing in front of her, a sense of pride appeared in Jiang Qing’s eyes. Who would have thought that just a year ago, a young boy competing for a spot for an Opening Acupoints Pill would now be proactively invited by Lingxiao Martial Academy.

And from Junior Brother Lin’s eyes, she felt a confidence, unhindered by the strong talent from Xiang Kingdom and Zheng Kingdom.

”Staying at Lingxiao Martial Academy for three months, are you still going back to Raozhou Prefecture this year?”

The distance between Lingxiao City and Jiangnan Dao is not short. After thinking for a moment, Lin Chen replied, ”If time permits, I definitely want to go home.”

”Well, I’ll be going back to Raozhou Prefecture for the Lunar New Year.”

Jiang Qing intended to return home for the New Year; Lin Chen understood what his senior sister meant. He stepped forward, standing in front of Jiang Qing, who barely reached Lin Chen’s chest.

Gently brushing a few strands of hair on Senior Sister Jiang’s head, Lin Chen softly said, ”If Senior Sister is going back, I certainly will also make an effort to return.”

”Mm.”

Jiang Qing’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s, with her pretty face pressed against Lin Chen’s chest.

The temperature in the courtyard quickly rose...

...

...

At the entrance of Canglan Martial Arts Academy, Lin Chen bade farewell to Senior Sister Jiang.

”Senior Sister, I’m leaving.”

”Mm.”

Jiang Qing nodded, and without further delay, Lin Chen raised his right hand to flick the horse’s reins and rode out of the Canglan Martial Arts Academy gate.

”I said, Senior Brother Lin definitely doesn’t need us to send him off. He has Senior Sister Jiang, after all.”

In a distant corner, Fang Zhan, watching Lin Chen bid farewell to Jiang Qing, mumbled to himself.

Xiao Yaojin ignored Fang Zhan. Yesterday, Senior Brother Lin had informed the two of them that he would be going to Lingxiao Martial Academy for three months as an exchange student.

Although Senior Brother Lin didn’t explain why he was going to Lingxiao Martial Academy as an exchange student at this time, with the information they knew, they could make a guess.

”This journey to Lingxiao Martial Academy might just make Senior Brother Lin famous among the younger generation of the Nine Kingdoms.”

Xiao Yaojin’s eyes were filled with certainty. Although Canglan Martial Arts Academy is not lacking, it is ultimately in a remote location, while Lingxiao City is Liang’s most prosperous city, gathering martial artists from the Nine Kingdoms and many commercial firms.

Many young talents chose not to attend Qingyun Martial Academy or the Capital Martial Academy, opting instead for Lingxiao Martial Academy because of Lingxiao City’s unique allure.
