Chapter 102: Chapter 88 Sensation_4
 

“Definitely that bizarre woman, Ji Qingqing’s idea!”

Liu Yue Rong gritted her teeth, vividly remembering when she arrived at the Mountain and River Courtyard, seeing that child’s body all soaked pale.

But the medicinal liquid hadn’t been absorbed at all; to put on an act like that was truly ruthless!

“No, I must inform Qianfeng about this message so he can prepare in advance.”

Liu Yue Rong suddenly realized and hurriedly ordered someone to bring paper and ink to write a secret letter.

…

Moreover, the reactions of the other courtyards upon learning the news were immensely shocking.

The news even stirred them more than when they had learned about Li Junye entering the Grandmaster Realm at seventeen.

After all, to them, Li Hao had always seemed carefree, never seen practicing martial arts. Instead of training, he was either painting or fishing with his second uncle, seemingly having plenty of leisure time, a stark contrast to the other youths sweating profusely from diligent practice.

Although Li Hao started cultivating later on, no one inquired about his realm, as it was common knowledge without asking that he hadn’t achieved Foundation Establishment. With his indifferent attitude and terrible roots, how far could he have possibly cultivated?

The invitation from Tan Palace Academy had Li Hao’s name on it only because He Jianlan had given special instructions to include him.

Even He Jianlan thought Li Hao hadn’t cultivated much, and that entering Tan Palace Academy on his own merits would be a challenge, let alone others’ opinions.

“So that’s why he was an exception…”

In the Piaoxue Courtyard, siblings Li Yun were both stunned, frozen in disbelief.

They had thought Li Hao had merely reached the Soul Succession Realm before them since the threshold for the Black and White Hall was just that.

But he had leaped several steps ahead, reaching a place they couldn’t even see clearly.

Li Wushuang stood aside with no change in her expression, just a slight narrowing of her eyes upon hearing the news.

She had already experienced Li Hao’s Fifteen Li Realm slap the day before.

Li Xuanli and Gao Qingqing looked at each other in astonishment.

Noticing her sister Li Zhining muttering, Li Wushuang asked, “What exception are you talking about?”

Li Zhining came back to her senses with a complex look in her eyes. Seeing her elder sister ask with a lowered head, she suddenly realized that even her brilliant sister might seem dim in comparison to that young man.

The difference between a 16-year-old in the Divine Travel Realm and a 14-year-old in the Fifteen Li Realm was just too vast!

Under Li Wushuang’s pressing questions, Li Zhining recounted the exceptional entry of Li Hao into Black and White Hall.

Upon learning that Li Hao had been an exception to enter the Black and White Hall, Li Xuanli commented in annoyance, “So you’re saying that those old fogies at Tan Palace Academy knew before we did?”

Gao Qingqing, quick-witted, had already calmed from the shock and pondered, “When they were out on academy missions previously, Hao Er must have shown his strength then.”

“Those bastards, why wouldn’t they inform us about such a crucial matter?” Li Xuanli said with irritation.

Gao Qingqing glanced at her husband and shook her head, “Think about it, they must have assumed we, the Li Family, were already aware of it. Our Hao Er has exceptional talents without a wide reputation, they likely suspected us of deliberately concealing it. And with both his parents on the frontier, it might make others think we’re hiding his fame to protect him from petty villains in their absence.”

“Now that they’re aware of this news, they naturally dare not spread it around, probably very nervous about letting it slip because of them.”

As his wife analyzed the situation, Li Xuanli also came to a realization and was left speechless; it really was coincidental that Hao had come home.

When it came to treachery, Gao Qingqing glanced at her eldest daughter and said, “When you’re out, you must also be careful. The Qiankun List is the talent list of our Human Race, reserved only for the prodigies. But you also know, the Qiankun List has another name.”

“Yes.”

Li Wushuang nodded, the other name being the Demon Race’s hit list!

The longstanding enmity between the Human and Demon races, should they learn of a Great Demon giving birth to an exceedingly talented offspring, would also lead them to dispatch assassins.

Yet despite such a threatening alternative name, the glory of the Qiankun List still attracted countless individuals.

After all, many geniuses possess pride and valor, and who could consider themselves brave if they hid in fear of assassination?

In this world, countless Martial Artists train hard, all for one thing.

Fame.
