The cat demon defies the heavens and is the emperor’s only beloved disciple!

With the ringing of a clear bell, the crowd gradually quieted down and everyone's eyes were focused on the platform.

There, Chen Xuan, the master of Lingshan Academy, was sitting in the main seat, dressed in a gorgeous robe, with a majestic look between his brows that revealed his authority without even being angry.

Beside him, Yun Che, dressed in a purple-gold robe, rustled in the wind.

He has a posture as straight as a pine tree and a temperament as elegant as a dragon.

The sleeves of the robe are embroidered with mysterious patterns, as if containing endless power.

Every strand of his body was flowing with purple energy, making him exude an awe-inspiring aura.

His long hair was as black as ink, flying freely. On his forehead, a golden gem gleamed faintly, just like the brilliance in his deep eyes.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a faint smile, which showed both extraordinary indifference and a domineering attitude that looked down on the world.

"All monks, please be silent! Next, I invite the ninth monk, Taoist Xuanqing, to take the stage."

Sect Master Chen Xuan's voice was loud and solemn, echoing throughout the square.

Xu Wan, who was standing next to Yun Che, had a barely perceptible flicker of excitement in her eyes after hearing what Sect Master Chen Xuan said.

She whispered to Yun Che, "It's finally our turn."

Although her voice was soft, it could not hide her inner anticipation.

Jin Xi's eyes sparkled with curiosity and desire for the unknown world.

He stood beside Xu Wan, gently tugged at her sleeve, and whispered, "Aunt, Xuanqing is about to go on stage."

Xuanqing walked slowly out from beside Jinxi, his steps steady and powerful.

He was dressed in a dark blue Taoist robe, holding an exquisite whisk in his hand and carrying a long sword on his back. He exuded an extraordinary temperament.

Her black hair is like a waterfall, fluttering gently in the wind, and a snow-white headband adds a sense of elegance.

He walked towards Sect Master Chen Xuan step by step, and each step seemed so firm and calm.

Xuanqing came before Sect Master Chenxuan, bowed, and said in a clear and powerful voice: "Xuanqing thanks Sect Master."

These few simple words revealed his respect and gratitude for Sect Master Chen Xuan.

Sect Master Chen Xuan smiled and nodded, his eyes full of admiration: "You are a disciple of Young Master Yun Che. I am deeply pleased that you can come to Lingshan Academy to participate in the entrance trial.

I hope you can gain something from this trip and live up to the expectations of young friend Yun Che."

When Xuanqing heard this, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He was well aware of the importance of this trial and the responsibility on his shoulders.

Yun Che stood up and patted Xuan Qing on the shoulder, a smile on his face as he said, “Xuan Qing, you can do it. I’m very optimistic about you!”

Upon hearing this, Xuan Qing bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Xu Wan looked at Xuan Qing on the stage, her mood growing increasingly excited. She clenched her fists, jumped up and shouted, "Xuan Qing, come on! Oli Ge!"

Xu Wan's shout startled everyone present, and they all looked at her in surprise.

Sect Master Chen Xuan was also stunned and asked in confusion, "Xiao Wan, what did you mean by 'Oli Gei' just now?"

Xu Wan realized her own gaffe and blushed as she quickly explained, "This is a saying we use in our hometown to encourage people. It means to cheer them up."

After hearing this, the monks around all looked enlightened.

After hearing Xu Wan's explanation, the tense atmosphere on the field suddenly relaxed a lot.

Some young monks even followed suit and shouted "Oli Gei". For a moment, the sky above Lingshan Academy was filled with cheers one after another.

Xuanqing nodded slightly to the people in the audience, then walked to the fairy stone.

At this time, the atmosphere on the field became lively and people cheered for Xuanqing.

Standing next to Xu Wan, Jin Xi's eyes were filled with admiration and concern for Xuan Qing, and she called softly, "Aunt, Xuan Qing will win, right?"

Xu Wan smiled slightly, touched Jin Xi's head, and said softly, "Yes, Jin Xi, Xuan Qing has a tenacity and perseverance that we can't imagine. He will definitely be able to overcome all difficulties."

At this moment, a figure fell from the sky and landed in front of Sect Master Chen Xuan.

True Man Jiuyang bowed to Sect Master Chenxuan and said, "Sect Master, I will preside over Xuanqing's trial."

Sect Master Chen Xuan nodded slightly, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

He was well aware of Master Jiuyang's strength and prestige. Having him personally test Xuanqing was undoubtedly the greatest affirmation and test for Xuanqing.

True Man Jiuyang walked slowly towards Xuanqing, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if he could see through people's hearts.

He raised his hand slightly, and a golden light instantly turned into a calming lock, wrapping around Xuanqing.

Xuan Qing's body trembled slightly, then he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and concentrated, his tone calm and firm: "Master Jiuyang, please teach me."

Seeing this, Master Jiuyang curled up the corners of his mouth into a faint smile, quickly formed seals with his hands, and shouted in a low voice: "Thunder Induction Technique!"

Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, thunder roared, and a purple lightning flashed across the sky and headed straight for Xuanqing.

Everyone screamed in fear and retreated, fearing that they would be affected by the thunder.

However, Xuan Qing seemed to be out of the matter, still sitting with his eyes closed, surrounded by golden light, forming an indestructible protective shield.

The purple lightning struck the golden light, emitting a dazzling radiance, but it was unable to penetrate at all.

"What a golden body protection!"

True Man Jiuyang exclaimed in admiration, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He didn't expect that Xuanqing, at such a young age, could practice such a powerful defensive spell.

However, Master Jiuyang did not stop there.

He knew very well that the real trial had just begun.

He formed seals again and mobilized the power of heaven and earth. The dark clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, and the thunder became more and more frequent, as if the entire sky was about to be torn apart.

"Xuanqing, the real test is coming next!"

True Man Jiuyang said in a deep voice. As soon as he finished speaking, several streaks of purple lightning descended simultaneously, striking Xuanqing like a divine punishment.

Xuanqing's expression changed slightly, but he did not back down.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and chanted a spell. The golden light around him became more dazzling, as if it would illuminate the entire sky.

The spiritual power in his body surged wildly, engaging in a fierce confrontation with the power of the thunder.

As time went by, the purple lightning gradually weakened, while the golden light around Xuanqing became stronger and stronger.

His face showed a painful yet determined expression, as if he was undergoing a complete transformation.

Finally, after a deafening roar, all the lightning disappeared without a trace.

Xuanqing slowly opened his eyes, with an unprecedented light flashing in them.

He stood up, his clothes torn but full of energy, as if he had been reborn.

"Master Jiuyang, thank you for your guidance! Please continue." Xuanqing bowed and said. His tone was still calm.

Xu Wan stood beside Yun Che. She knew very well how important this trial was to Xuan Qing. She also understood that Xuan Qing was not only her disciple, but also the pride of her heart.

“Master, Xuanqing…” Xu Wan said softly to Yun Che beside her, her concern barely concealed in her words.

Yun Che smiled faintly, his eyes filled with trust and encouragement: "Don't worry, Wan'er. Xuanqing possesses extraordinary tenacity and understanding. He will definitely be able to get through this trial safely."

At this time, Xuan Qing was on the high platform, with a golden calming lock wrapped around his waist, flashing with a faint light, as if it could calm people's minds.

His headband fluttered in the wind, and the snow-white headband looked even more dazzling under the reflection of the purple lightning.

Xuan Qing closed his eyes and raised his head, as if he had merged with the heaven and earth, and an extraordinary aura emanated from his whole body.

He felt the spiritual power surging around him and the purple thunder that was about to descend. He had no fear in his heart, only an infinite desire and pursuit for cultivation.

True Man Jiuyang stood in the void, holding an ancient jade ruler in his hand, his eyes deep, as if he could see through everything in the world.

He gently waved the jade ruler, and suddenly, the sky changed, thunder roared, and dozens of purple lightnings surged like a tide, heading straight for Xuanqing on the high platform.

"What a great Xuanqing! He is indeed a disciple of the Emperor!"

True Man Jiuyang secretly praised in his heart, and he felt sincerely gratified by the calmness and tenacity displayed by Xuanqing.

Purple lightning came one after another, each containing the power to destroy the world.

However, Xuan Qing stood firm like a rock, and a golden shield gradually formed around his body. It was the spiritual power condensed from his years of hard practice.

"Xuanqing, hold on! This is your test, but also your opportunity!"

Yun Che's voice rang out, and he was also looking at Xuan Qing on the high platform, his heart filled with anticipation.

As the purple thunder continued to bombard him, Xuanqing's body began to tremble slightly, but he still closed his eyes, as if he was talking to the heaven and earth and resonating with the purple thunder.

His golden centering lock also began to emit a more dazzling light, reflecting the purple thunder, forming a magnificent picture.

Finally, when the last purple thunder fell, the entire square seemed to tremble.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared, everyone was surprised to find that Xuanqing was still standing there. Although his clothes were slightly torn, his eyes were more determined and brighter.

"Success! Taoist Xuanqing successfully passed the Purple Thunder Trial!"

Cheers broke out from the crowd, they were impressed by Xuanqing's tenacity and perseverance.

At this time, True Man Jiuyang also slowly landed on the high platform. He looked at Xuanqing, his eyes full of admiration and satisfaction: "Xuanqing, you really didn't let me down.

This trial not only proved your strength and perseverance, but also allowed me to see the infinite possibilities of your future."

Xuan Qing opened his eyes and bowed deeply to Master Jiuyang: "Thank you for the grace of the trial.

Xuanqing will definitely continue to work hard on his cultivation and live up to the high expectations of his master."

True Man Jiuyang raised his hand and the calming lock wrapped around Xuanqing's waist disappeared.

Master Jiuyang smiled and said, "You have passed this trial. However, this is just the beginning, and the road ahead is still long. I hope you can keep your original aspiration in mind and forge ahead."

After saying this, True Man Jiuyang waved his sleeves and turned into a stream of light and disappeared on the platform.

Upon seeing this, Sect Master Chen Xuan immediately stood up from the throne, holding two crystal clear spiritual fruits in his hands. They were rewards for those who performed well in the trial.

"Xuanqing, you have performed well this time. Come and rest with the attendants. These two 'Qingling Fruits' are your reward."

Sect Master Chen Xuan's voice was gentle yet powerful, revealing his care and expectations for the younger generation.

Upon hearing this, Xuanqing hurriedly bowed and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Thank you for the reward, Sect Master. Xuan Qing will definitely continue to work hard and live up to your expectations. I can just continue to watch the trial and there is no need to rest!"

Chen Xuan held his long beard with his hand and said with a smile: "As you wish!" Then he walked to the throne and slowly sat down.

Xuanqing turned his gaze to Xu Wan, only to see Jin Xi beside her with a clever look between her brows. She was looking up at Xuanqing, her eyes full of admiration and respect.

Xuan Qing walked up to Xu Wan, handed the spiritual fruit to her with a smile, and said, "Master, try it."

Xu Wan didn't take the spiritual fruit. Instead, she patted Xuanqing on the shoulder and said with a faint smile, "Xuanqing, you've worked hard! Eat it yourself."

Yun Che, who was watching all this, felt a surge of jealousy in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said calmly, "Yes! Xuanqing, you've worked hard. These two spiritual fruits are a reward from the Sect Master. Please accept them."

Yun Che thought to himself: You’re so good, Xuanqing! You even know how to use golden light to protect your body. Last night, you told me you were hungry… and you wanted my golden elixir again. I even asked Wan’er to give you some spiritual liquid. I’m really too generous to you…

Xuan Qing glanced at Yun Che, then lowered his head like a mouse seeing a cat, and returned to stand beside Jin Xi...
