"Hehe, master, it's not what you think. As long as one becomes a student of Qing Long Academy, they can still leave. Except for the annual fixed trial to leave Qing Long Academy, even if there are private matters, one can also leave Qing Long Academy. Moreover, Qing Long Academy does not require students to stay inside for fifty years. If you feel that your gains within are already sufficient, you can also leave Qing Long Academy at any time."

  Liu Mengchen had also thought about entering Qinglong Academy and inquired a lot of information about Qinglong Academy.

  "If that's the case, then I'm really interested in taking a look." Ye Feng decided to enter Qinglong Academy. He felt that he had always been walking on a wild path and hadn't found a clear direction for his cultivation, so it wouldn't hurt to enter Qinglong Academy to find some opportunities.

  Each cultivator has their own direction of cultivation, or a specialized technique they focus on.

  Ye Feng was different, however. Since joining the Wang Hai Sect, he hadn't obtained any particularly good techniques. But then again, the sect leader's cultivation was only at the Golden Elixir stage, so how could the Wang Hai Sect possibly have better techniques? As the Wang Hai Sect declined, some of its legendary techniques disappeared with the passage of time.

  Ye Feng thought that he had only mastered the shrinking of space and Xue Ren Gui's strange body method, in terms of attack, he was relying on the strange body method combined with strong spiritual energy, but didn't have any killer moves to defeat his enemies.

  If it was when his cultivation was low, it would be fine, but as his horizons broadened, Ye Feng increasingly felt that the methods he grasped were too monotonous, and in terms of attacking, there wasn't a single move that could be used with confidence.

  Especially when being chased by others and running all over the world, Ye Feng wanted to get a kung fu that suits himself even more.

  Each major sect and family has its own gongfa, which includes not only body techniques and secret arts, but also offensive and defensive techniques.

  But which sect isn't self-conceited, how would they give their secretly transmitted skills to outsiders for nothing, and Ye Feng also didn't find any skills in the several forces he destroyed, it's estimated that they were all passed down orally, just to prevent one day leaking out.

  It is said that in the past, most of the powers were recorded on specially made spiritual beast skins. Through such inheritance, the kung fu would remain intact and flawless, making it more conducive for later generations to practice.

  But it is unknown in what era, a legendary thief suddenly appeared, shaking the entire cultivation world and bringing about an unprecedented impact, with losses that cannot be estimated.

  The thief stole more than a thousand manuals of various sects' internal skills, he kept those that he thought were useful to him and destroyed the ones that he considered useless.

  Over a thousand powerful manuals of secret techniques were lost at the same time, causing a huge shock. The entire cultivation world was hunting down the thief, who had been listed as a public enemy of the cultivation world.

  But the thief was so cunning and elusive that after many years, he still hadn't been caught, and instead had stolen the secret manuals of other schools.

  Later on, in order to prevent the secret manuals of the school's kung fu from being leaked out, all schools had no choice but to come up with a solution, which was to destroy all the secret manuals of their own school. The younger generation could only learn the kung fu of their own school by learning from their elders. Only some super powerful forces with strong defenses that thieves couldn't break through were able to preserve them intact.

  Of course, a small school like Wang Hai Pai is not even of interest to others. It's just a small force in Liang Guo, so Wang Hai Pai still retains some secret books. In fact, these are not even considered secret books.

  Years later, the remains of the divine thief were discovered, but the skills he had stolen had all disappeared and were destroyed before his death.

  It was only from his last words that people came to know that he had a humble origin when he was young, and his parents were not around since childhood. He suffered all kinds of hardships and went to countless sects, wanting to enter them for cultivation and become a cultivator, thereby changing his fate.

  But what disappointed him was that no sect took him in, and it was said that his physique was somewhat special and not suitable for cultivation.

  He was not willing to end his life like this, and after wandering for a few years, he finally joined a sect. He was overjoyed, thinking that from now on, he could become an immortal who could fly freely in the sky.

  Fate played a trick on him again, the sect didn't want to cultivate him at all, but rather an elder of the sect had taken a liking to his body. The elder practiced a demonic technique that caused damage to his body and wanted to use his body to house his primordial spirit and become strong once more, treating him as a crucible for cultivation.

  Later, when that elder was undergoing soul transference, a problem occurred and his soul was swallowed by him, resulting in his cultivation.

  But after this, due to the influence of magic and suffering from deception, his personality changed greatly.

  He believed that everyone owed him an apology. At first, he refused to join his sect and suffered revenge from him, stealing all the secret books of these sects and destroying them.

  This was a secret many years ago, but since then, all major sects have changed the way of inheriting their skills, and most of them continue to pass on their skills through oral tradition, just to prevent their own skills from being lost.

  The consequences of doing so are also very serious, and some earth-shattering skills have gradually lost their traces in the inheritance, until they completely disappear. It is said that before the appearance of the divine thief, the skills on the mainland were still diverse and numerous, compared to now, much stronger.

  As the Taoist arts disappeared, the probability of a strong practitioner appearing also became smaller and smaller. In the early days of the Yuan Ying period, practitioners could be seen everywhere on the mainland, just like the ordinary foundation-building period now.

  It can be seen that the thief's behavior at the beginning had a great impact on later generations.

  And speaking of Ye Feng and others.

  Left Luojing City and headed for Zaxianzhou.

  Zashen State was an unknown number of tens of thousands of miles away from Dahuo State, and Ye Feng didn't stay on the road, but it still took him nearly a month to arrive at the border of Zashen State.

  When I arrived in Zajianzhou, I found something different.

  Ye Feng found that many monks were rushing here from all directions, and they should be heading to the Qinglong Academy. After all, this is the academic hall of the cultivation world. On the way, Ye Feng heard people mention that many lost martial arts would be seen in the Qinglong Academy.

  Made Ye Feng even more yearn for it.

  Even if I couldn't enter Qinglong Academy, it's still considered participating in a grand gathering of the Cultivation World.

  Such a conference has another meaning, and all the people who come are young heroes of the Xiuzhen world. Each person is a leader in their sect and family, and they are all called extraordinary geniuses.

  Many of them will become powerful figures who will dominate the world in the future, and there will be even more mainlanders who are renowned for their strength.

  No need to deliberately inquire about the location of Qinglong Academy, just follow other cultivators and you can find where Qinglong Academy is.

  Ye Feng was worried about not knowing the location of Qinglong Academy and followed other cultivators forward.

  Many days later, more and more monks flew over in the air, all heading deep into Zasword State.

  This is a majestic mountain range, and as soon as Ye Feng entered this mountain range, he felt a unique aura.

  The spiritual energy here is extremely rich and dense, far surpassing that of other places. Cultivating here for a year is equivalent to cultivating elsewhere for a year and a half.

  It seems that Qinglong Academy is indeed a mysterious place, even the selection of its location is so particular.

  As he went deeper, Ye Feng found that the mountain range stretched endlessly, if not following someone else's footsteps, he would definitely get lost. Flying in the air and looking around, one high mountain after another was connected together.

  The mountain is covered with ancient trees, and various spiritual herbs grow on the ground, where all kinds of spiritual beasts also live.

  Ye Feng tried to sense it, but it was too terrifying. The ground transmitted an extremely strong aura of terror, some of which were comparable to the top masters of the Yuan Ying period, and others were even above that.

  Suddenly, a monk flying in front of him had sharp eyes and discovered a spiritual herb growing on the ground, and immediately landed down.

  This is an extraordinary spiritual medicine that can't be found anywhere else. The Taoist priest was overjoyed and flew down with his sword to pick it.

  "Pffft!" A flash of light passed by, and that cultivator didn't even have time to react before turning into a puddle of blood and flesh.

  A gigantic deer-headed monster spewed out a ball of light from its mouth and hit the monk's body.

  Ye Feng quickly accelerated and dodged the monster.

  "Don't worry, master, at this time all the spiritual beasts won't attack us, just relax." Liu Mengchen said from the side.

  "Oh? Why is that? Didn't the monk just die in the monster's mouth a moment ago?" Ye Feng asked doubtfully.

  "That's what he gets for being greedy and not content with what he has. He's going to end up dead, and it won't be anyone else's fault." Liu Mengchen said.

  "What's going on?" Ye Feng was puzzled.

  "Although the spiritual beasts below have extremely high cultivation, normally when we pass by here, we will definitely be attacked. But it's different now, every time the Qinglong Academy opens, the spiritual beasts will honestly lie on the ground and let us pass through the air." Liu Mengchen explained.

  "So you're saying we can fly in the sky but can't land on the ground, and as soon as we touch down, we'll be attacked?" Liu Meng continued to ask.

  "That's right, the Qinglong Academy has set a rule for the spiritual beasts here. As long as the Qinglong Academy is open, all spiritual beasts are not allowed to harm the cultivators flying in the air until the Qinglong Academy closes." Liu Mengchen was still relatively familiar with the Qinglong Academy.

  It seems that the monk just now died of greed.

  Ye Feng was also a treasure enthusiast, but he knew when to do what. He came for the sake of entering Qinglong Academy, not to fight monsters and steal treasures, so he didn't have any interest in the spiritual medicine on the ground, and thus didn't stir up trouble.

  Most of the masters knew this rule, only a few did not understand the rules and were greedy at this time, they were attacked by the land-based spiritual beast.

  Ye Feng discovered a very strange phenomenon, that is, most of the monks flying in the air were alone, and there was no high-ranking monk to protect them.

  It shouldn't be like this, before entering this mountain range, it wasn't the case that many monks had people protecting them, just like parents sending their children to school, is this place within the school's grounds, not allowing parents to enter?

  Hand over the doubts in your heart to Liu Mengchen.

  Liu Mengchen smiled, "Actually, it's very simple. It's not that they don't want to enter, but rather because of the rules set by Qinglong Academy."

  "Oh? Does the Qinglong Academy not allow anyone other than registered cultivators to enter?" Wu Liang asked, if that's the case it would be troublesome, and they could only temporarily hide in Ye Feng's inner world.

  "That's not the case, Qinglong Academy has an agreement with the Spiritual Beast, as long as Qinglong Academy is closed, all cultivators will be at the disposal of the Spiritual Beast. Those who want to join Qinglong Academy must undergo a mandatory assessment, and those who fail will not be allowed to enter. Once the assessment is over, Qinglong Academy will close."

  Liu Mengchen looked at several people and said, "You say such rules, who dares to follow in, no one knows when the assessment of Qinglong Academy will end. If you come out a little late, isn't that handing over your life here?"

  "What about those who didn't pass the assessment?" Liu Meng was quite quick-witted and immediately thought of the most critical issue.

  "If you can't pass the assessment, Qinglong Academy won't care about you, and you'll have to come out on your own. The prerequisite is that you must pass through this endless mountain range without being killed by spiritual beasts."

  "Heavens, such a rule is indeed ruthless. Those who can't pass the assessment will all become food for the Spiritual Beasts." Wu Liang's eyes were filled with incredulity.

  "It's not easy to get into Qinglong Academy, first of all, it's fair competition. If you can't pass the assessment with your own abilities, there is only one way out, and that is death. This is also what makes Qinglong Academy different from others. Not just anyone is accepted here. Don't come if you don't have this confidence, and don't come if you don't have this courage."

  Ye Feng thought silently, indeed as Liu Mengchen said, without the confidence and determination of a sure win, without the courage to face death, coming to Qinglong Academy to sign up was really a dead end.

  Not yet arrived at Qinglong Academy, Ye Feng's interest was greatly increased.

  Qinglong Academy is indeed different.
