Chapter 213: Chapter 213
"It's an instructor from the academy."
The crowd around them suddenly startled and immediately fell silent, each returning to their respective places in line with utmost obedience.
Zhao Letian furrowed his eyebrows slightly and, taking Mu Lei with him, headed towards another queue. He was incapable of contending against a Sect Martial Realm powerhouse, and least of all wished to provoke an instructor from the academy.
Seeing that order had been restored, the instructor turned and left.
"Kid, you just wait, this isn't over."
"That's right, we'll see."
After the instructor left, Bai Dongyi and the fat boy Rong both had a sinking expression and looked Coldly towards Zhao Letian, threatening.
Zhao Letian stood with his hands behind his back, showing no fear.
"Hahaha, two noble wastes, with no strength to show for it and still have the nerve to threaten others. You noble scions are really something."
The youth in a blue robe standing in front of Zhao Letian and Mu Lei ridiculed Bai Dongyi and the fat boy Rong with disdain.
"Exactly, these noble offspring strut around all day, thinking themselves above everyone else, not realizing they're merely riding on their family's coattails, boasting with borrowed authority. In an actual fight, they are nothing."
"Yes, didn't they get slapped in the face today? All day long claiming they'll teach others a lesson, only to get taught a lesson themselves. Oh, how loud their fall from grace."
Other people in the queue also looked towards the queue where Bai Dongyi and the fat boy Rong were, full of mockery.
People within the noble queue were all frowning and looking displeased, but powerless to retort. After all, Bai Dongyi and the fat boy Rong were indeed defeated, and the academy's instructor had already warned everyone, so they dared not act rashly. They could only resentfully look at Bai Dongyi and the fat boy Rong, blaming these two wastes for causing all the noble disciples to lose face along with them.
"You bunch of poor commoners, don't get cocky. You'll see what's coming for you during the academy entrance assessment."
Bai Dongyi gave a cold glare at the people in the other queue, threatening viciously.
"I'm not afraid of you."
The youth in blue sneered disdainfully, his cultivation at the True Martial Sixth Realm, unafraid of Bai Dongyi.
"Big brother, are you also someone from outside?"
Mu Lei looked at the youth in the blue robe curiously and asked.
"No, I'm a local from the Royal Capital. Let's get to know each other, my name is Gedan, and you are?"
The youth in blue, Gedan, introduced himself with a very friendly attitude.
Mu Lei and Zhao Letian said in turn.
"Zhao Zilong? Nice name. Is it your first time coming to the Royal Capital?"
Gedan asked with a smile.
"Yes, we just arrived today."
Zhao Letian nodded. Uploadedbythe*)team.
"I see, no wonder you stood in the wrong queue. Actually, in the Royal Capital, there are three types of people: nobles, commoners, and outsiders. Each has a different Identity Token emitting a distinct aura. If you sense it carefully, you can distinguish it. The people in that queue over there are all noble offspring from the Royal Capital, while the people in this queue are commoners and outsiders from the city."
Zhao Letian's Divine Thought Power spread out, paying close attention, and he quickly realized that indeed, different auras were emanating from the people around him.
"Gedan, big brother, why do we need to split into two teams? Could it be that those nobility sons actually enjoy some privileges?"
"Of course, they do. You should know that the families behind those noble disciples have all d a lot to the academy, so naturally they can enjoy some preferential treatment. Without going into other aspects, you will soon find out that the pace at which that team is moving forward is much faster than ours."
Gedan shook his head with a wry smile and said helplessly.
"Is there really such a thing? If that's the case, isn't there no fairness at the Holy Spirit Academy?"
Mu Lei said with a frown.
"Fairness? Where in this world is there absolute fairness? But rest assured, the privileges that noble sons can enjoy are very limited. When it comes to cultivation, the academy treats everyone equally and definitely does not give special treatment to noble disciples."
Gedan spoke nonchalantly.
"That's more like it."
Mu Lei nodded, his eyebrows relaxing.
After waiting a bit longer, Zhao Letian and Mu Lei realized that the team consisting of the noble sons was indeed moving very fast. Bai Dongyi and Fatty Rong, who were originally on the same level as them, had already left them far behind.
"Tsk tsk, it's good to be a noble. Brother-in-law, you're so wealthy, why not become a noble yourself sometime?"
Mu Lei looked at the noble sons' team, eyes filled with envy.
"Don't rush, once you become a Prince Consort, won't you be a noble then?"
Zhao Letian shook his head, smiling.
"Me? Forget it, even that Fatty Rong is stronger than me, how could I possibly have a chance to become a Prince Consort? Brother-in-law, you should try harder to marry the Princess. Don't worry, our family is very open-minded, a man having three wives and four concubines is very normal, my sister won't mind."
Mu Lang said dejectedly, then began to encourage Zhao Letian.
"Don't belittle yourself. Fatty Rong's cultivation is two levels higher than yours and he's older than you. It's not shameful that your strength is not up to his for now. With your talent, if you work hard in your cultivation, surpassing him is just a matter of time."
Zhao Letian smiled helplessly, encouraging him.
"But brother-in-law, you're not much older than me and your cultivation is not higher than Fatty Rong or Bai Dongyi, yet you are much stronger than them. Compared to you, I still fall short. The competition for the Prince Consort should be left to you. I'll be more than content if I can join the Holy Spirit Academy."
"Gentlemen, meeting today is fate. I will go and wait for you over there. After you finish registering, I will take you for a tour of the Royal Capital."
At this moment, Gedan, who had already finished registering at the front, walked over and said.
"Okay, thank you very much."
Zhao Letian nodded in gratitude.
"Hand over your Identity Tokens, and each person needs to pay ten Mid-Grade Essence Stones as the registration fee."
In front of the queue, a Sect Martial Realm elder dressed in a gray robe spoke indifferently at a slow pace, while on the side of the nobles, there were several beautiful female instructors providing enthusiastic service.
"There's a registration fee too?"
Mu Lei immediately frowned, cursing inwardly, thinking that the Royal Capital really isn't a place for people, everything requires Primordial Stones, and ten Mid-Grade Essence Stones was not a small amount for him.
"Here are twenty Mid-Grade Essence Stones, the registration fee for both of us."
Zhao Letian, however, nonchalantly took out twenty Mid-Grade Essence Stones and handed them over, as this amount of Primordial Stones was hardly worth mentioning to him.
Then, both handed over their respective Identity Tokens as well.
"Alright, the information is correct, these are your Tokens for participating in the Prince Consort selection and the academy's entrance examination. In three days, you will be informed about the detailed content of the examination through the Token."
The gray-robed elder swept them with his Divine Thought Power, seeing through the real ages and cultivation levels of Zhao Letian and Mu Lei, then took out two exquisite Jade Tokens and handed them back along with their Identity Tokens.
