The morning in early summer is the most beautiful.
The morning sun dispelled the night, with a bit of cool wind blowing the treetops. The sunlight passed through the trembling branches and formed floating light and shadow on the ground. Everything in sight was clear and bright.
Early summer.
This is the clearest season in the world.
Li Tianlan stood at the window of the ward and looked into the distance, silently meditating.
Li Baitian, whose upper body was almost covered with bandages, leaned on the hospital bed and looked at him calmly.
Sunlight shone in from the window, and fell on Li Tianlan with layers of halo. Li Tianlan, who was motionless, seemed to melt into the sunlight and turned into dust floating in the light beam, illusory and without any sense of existence.
A knock sounded outside the door.
Be gentle and careful.
Li Tianlan moved his body and looked at Li Baitian.
Ning Qiancheng and Xu Chu were both pushed out for a walk by the nurse, and they were the only two in the ward.
Li Baitian shrugged, but his bandaged upper body moved, causing him to grimace in pain. He took a deep breath, looked at Li Tianlan and said with a smile, "You are quite popular."
The knocking on the door was still ringing, slowly and slowly.
Li Tianlan shook his head: "Unfortunately, it doesn't make any sense."
He walked out of the ward, went to the living room, and opened the door to the living room.
A very young woman stood outside the door.
The woman is very beautiful, but she is the kind of beauty that relies on makeup. She wears a short skirt that barely covers her buttocks, and a tight red suspender on her upper body, which shows off her figure to the maximum extent.
The strong fragrance blows towards your face.
Li Tianlan's expression did not change, but his nose moved subconsciously.
The woman's perfume is sprayed too much and can even be a bit pungent.
"Your Highness, I am Tong Yue, the class representative of the second class sniper class."
The woman said softly, her eyes sparkling and well-behaved.
She called you Your Highness.
This title is a bit exaggerated, but it is not unfounded.
Although Li Tianlan disappeared for three years, his battle in Tiandu has not faded at all. Even though he has lost his original fighting power, he is still ranked ninth on the God List and is still the number one among the younger generation in Central Continent.
one person.
This is actually not a good thing, but this status is enough to deserve the title of His Highness.
"Hello."
Li Tianlan smiled and nodded, signaling Tong Yue to come in.
The class representative of the second class sniper class.
Such an identity is actually very rare.
There are probably dozens of classes in Sky Academy.
The class that only belongs to Zhuang Huayang is the first class, and it is also the most elite class.
The class teacher of the second class is Yao Ji, a master of the Beihai Wang family, who is only half as elite.
Tong Yue is the class representative of Class 2's sniper class, which means her sniper results are the best in Class 2.
Li Tianlan let her in and even poured him a glass of water himself.
He didn't close the door to the ward.
So Li Baitian could also hear the conversation between the two.
Tong Yue spoke respectfully and well-behaved, while Li Baitian listened quietly, his eyes becoming more and more indifferent.
The conversation was very short, less than ten minutes.
Tong Yue said goodbye.
Li Tianlan walked into the ward again.
"Is it the fifth batch?"
Li Baitian asked.
Li Tianlan nodded and said yes.
"No one expressed their opinion?"
Li Baitian frowned.
"This shows that they are all smart. Who is willing to take a stand before seeing the final result?"
Li Tianlan smiled and walked to the window again, looking at the world outside the window.
His eyes were calm and indifferent, but his gaze was so focused that it was almost staring.
Only when you stay in the polar regions where the ice and snow are always the same can you realize how colorful the outside world is with the changing seasons.
Li Baitian sneered and shook his head: "Stupid. After there is a clear result, will we still like them?"
Li Tianlan remained silent and did not speak.
Li Tianlan has been at Sky Academy for two days.
In two days, Kunlun City has made it clear that it requires Sky Academy to find the murderer of Gu Yunxia.
Li Tianlan is the biggest target of suspicion.
But now he has become the least suspect person.
The hospital's surveillance video has been sent to the principal's office.
All departments of the college have investigated.
There is nothing wrong with the surveillance video.
When that imperial sword killed Gu Yunxia, Li Tianlan was indeed chatting with Qin Ke in the hospital.
Although the hospital is close to the training ground, it is still close to two thousand meters.
This distance is enough to prove that everything has nothing to do with Li Tianlan.
However, Kunlun City continued to put pressure on Zhuang Huayang. It is said that Gu Xingyun even invited Wang Tianzong to Kunlun City.
Although Gu Youlan, the leader of Jileifeng, one of the four major forces of the younger generation, is still alive, his injuries are extremely serious, and it is said that he is likely to withdraw from the final exercise of the two houses.
Gu Xingyun and Wang Tianzong are said to be discussing the establishment of a regional special operations headquarters throughout Central Continent.
A high-level meeting in Zhongzhou will be held in a few days at the beginning of the month.
With the emergence of Li Tianlan, changes have occurred in all aspects of Central Continent. This change is very small and is only possible at the moment, but a large number of rumors are enough to cast a gloomy tone on the future of Li Tianlan and the Donghuang Palace.
But Li Tianlan is still the young city lord of Sighing City.
And it is said that he has a very close relationship with the Dongcheng family.
With Li Tianlan's return, although the road ahead for Donghuang Palace is difficult, at least it is no longer hopeless.
Therefore, in the past few days, many Sky Academy students have come to visit Li Tianlan.
Their attitude is also very respectful.
But no one is willing to express their intention to join Donghuang Palace.
Everyone is waiting for the results.
They may be waiting for the actions of Kunlun City and Beihai Wang Family.
It could also be the result of a final exercise.
It is also possible that the Sigh City and Dongcheng families united together to compete with Kunlun City and the Beihai Wang family.
Before seeing this, I'm afraid no one would hastily join the Donghuang Palace.
Their visit was just to get closer to Li Tianlan.
"What do you think they are waiting for?"
Li Baitian suddenly asked.
"Final exercise."
Li Tianlan said calmly: "In their hearts, this should be the clearest signal."
Kunlun City and Beihai Wang Family will definitely take action.
Sigh City and the Dongcheng family will definitely react.
Gambling is inevitable.
From the perspective of strength, the ranking is also very clear.
But that is destined to be a long process with too many variables.
In the eyes of truly ambitious people, a long time is enough for them to make some decisions that may not seem wise for the time being.
Students who can enter the Sky Academy may be cautious, but at least they will not lack courage.
But they have to see enough prospects before they decide whether to take a big gamble.
Li Tianlan's return is a signal.
But it was obvious that he severely injured Gu Yunxia with one sword. Even if the Imperial Sword was taken into account, his current performance still lacked some convincing.
No matter what the mentality of those who are interested in joining Donghuang Palace, at least they will believe that Donghuang Palace can give them a future that Kunlun City and the Beihai Wang Family cannot.
They believed in Li Tianlan, but they didn't completely trust him.
Especially when the strength of Donghuang Palace was greatly damaged and most of the main force were seriously injured, they needed the returning Li Tianlan to do something even more.
Shadow.
Three Thousand Realms.
Countless young masters are about to gather in the final exercise.
But Li Tianlan is now alone.
If he can be strong enough to defeat Shadow and Three Thousand Realms by himself, and stand at the pinnacle of the final exercise, then no one will doubt the prospects of Donghuang Palace, and more and more people will join Donghuang Palace.
People who came to visit Li Tianlan in recent days just wanted to get closer to Li Tianlan in advance.
If he failed in the final exercise, there would be nothing to say.
But if he stands at the end and graduates with the first credits, then these people will make a clear statement.
"When I win the final exercise, the Donghuang Palace can truly begin."
Li Tianlan said.
He didn't say what would happen if he lost.
He won't lose.
This is his self-confidence, which is unshakable.
"Can you win?"
Li Baitian was silent for a while and then asked in a low voice.
Compared to Jiang Shangyu, who has always been extremely low-key, Li Baitian had personally seen the power of Song Ci during his mission.
She was a gorgeous, almost flamboyant woman.
That kind of power is completely unreasonable in Li Baitian's opinion.
Li Tianlan was indeed powerful when he severely wounded Gu Youlan and Gu Yunxia with one sword.
But Song lyrics may not be impossible.
So he actually understood very well that the students who came to visit Li Tianlan were reluctant to express their opinions.
There is another point that Li Baitian doesn't want to admit, but he has to admit it.
Since the mission systems of the two institutes are shared, Donghuang Palace encountered shadows three times while performing field missions.
Although the two sides have no major conflicts abroad.
But every time the two sides compete, Shadow is the winner.
And now...
No matter he, Xu Chu, or Ning Qiancheng, it would be difficult for him to recover from his injuries before the final exercise.
What about the final exercise...
"rest assured."
Li Tianlan laughed: "I will win."
Donghuang Palace may encounter countless difficulties and oppression in the future.
But only by winning the final exercise will Donghuang Palace be qualified to face those.
That was his first step in Middle-earth, his starting point.
"I don't know how strong Jiang Shangyu is. But don't underestimate Song Ci."
Li Baitian warned cautiously: "There is something wrong with that woman."
Li Tianlan frowned and was about to say something when a crisp beeping sound suddenly sounded.
The watch on Li Baitian's hand that was used to tally scores began to vibrate.
"The list of the first batch of students from Deep Sea College to come to Huating has been confirmed."
Li Baitian said softly.
Li Tianlan remained calm.
Students from Deep Sea Academy will be divided into ten batches and arrive at Sky Academy one after another within a week.
The first batch is undoubtedly the most elite.
Since the list of the first batch has been transmitted to the students' communicators, it means that this group of people has now arrived at Sky Academy!
Song lyrics are definitely among them.
Li Tianlan was a little curious.
Li Baitian lowered his head and looked at the list information.
First on the list are three forces.
Three Thousand Realms.
Shadow.
Blizzard.
Then comes the specific list of the three major forces.
The screen on the watch is small.
The list scrolls very slowly.
Li Baitian watched quietly.
The first force to appear is Shadow.
The name of Song Ci is ranked first.
Then the half-baked names within the Shadow Organization began to roll.
Until the last line.
Li Baitian's expression changed drastically in an instant!
He subconsciously moved his body, and the gauze wrapped around his upper body was suddenly stained with blood.
But Li Baitian didn't notice it at all.
His face turned completely gloomy.
The names on the last line of Shadow's list continued to scroll upward.
An extremely dazzling name occupied all his sight.
That was the last name on Shadow's list.
Wang Shengxiao!
The list is still sliding.
After the shadow, there are three thousand realms.
That is the organization established by Jiang Shangyu.
Li Baitian looked at the list quietly, and suddenly felt weak all over.
This time he didn't need to look at the last one on the list.
Because Jiang Shangyu, the founder of Sanqianjie, is already ranked second.
And before him there was also a name.
Ancient Han Mountain!
Li Baitian suddenly raised his head.
The sunlight outside the window quietly shines into the ward.
There was silence and nothingness.
At some point, Li Tianlan's figure had disappeared from the ward.
