Chapter 256: A Single Sword Slash!

se meaning!Look!This is something that all practitioners who have reached a certain level tirelessly pursue.A warrior must clearly define his own path.The array master must also clearly define their o...Qīngfēng Zǒngyuàn.

Han Qianshan, with Yun Hao and the others, arrived at the main hall without alerting anyone.

The decoration of the main hall was quite imposing, resplendent with gold and jade. On each massive pillar were engraved auspicious beast patterns.

A burly middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows and an imposing presence was clearly waiting in the hall, having received word beforehand.

"院長, I have succeeded in fulfilling your order."

Han Qianshan bowed to the middle-aged man.

This person's identity is clear.

The dean of Qingfeng Hospital, Qin Xiao!

"Greetings, Director. It's an honor to meet you."

"Su Jun, nice to meet you, Director."

"Shi Feng, I have met the Dean."

Yun Hao also bowed to Qin Xiao and said, "Greetings, Dean."

Qin Xiao's gaze lingered on Yun Hao for a moment, then he glanced at Dongfang Xiu and the others, nodded slightly, and a look of approval appeared on his face.

"Dongfang Xiu, you're more familiar with the situation at the General Institute. You take them to rest first." Qin Xiao continued, "Yun Hao, stay behind for a moment."

Oriental Show: "Yes, Headmaster."

Saying that, he gave Fatty and Shi Feng a wink and the three of them walked out of the hall.

Yun Hao glanced at Xiao Hei, who was lying listlessly at his feet, and said, "You should go out first too."

Little Black stood up and rubbed his head against Yun Hao's trouser leg, then wagged his tail and chased after Dongfang Xiu and the others.

"General Han, please describe the situation on the road in detail," Qin Xiao immediately said.

Han Qianshan described his experiences on the road, including the assassination attempt he encountered after entering the imperial city.

As for Yun Hao's preaching about his experiences, he didn't say anything because when Yun Hao first entered the General Institute, he was asked to keep it confidential.

Han Qianshan is a very pure person, so it's fine if he doesn't mind. But that doesn't mean everyone else is the same. Some things are too special; if they can't be explained clearly, they can easily cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Qin Xiao listened, pondered for a moment, then looked at Yun Hao and said, “Yun Hao, what are your thoughts on the ambush halfway and the assassination in the Imperial City”

Yun Hao: “Please instruct, Headmaster.”

Being new to the imperial city, I'm unfamiliar with its ways. So, let's hear Qin Xiao's plans first.

Qin Xiao nodded and said, “The news about the innate fire seed was spread by the Prime Minister's Mansion. Their motives seem simple: Zhou Rong suffered a loss in the Fire Ruins Secret Realm and wants revenge.”

But... some things are just too coincidental.

The Flame Valley, Blood Slaughter Hall, Cangxing Grand Academy, Demon Clan, and those vicious martial artists all arrived at the same location at the same time to make their move.

I suspect that there is a hidden hand at work behind this, pushing the waves.

The message released from the Prime Minister's residence is nothing more than a faade put on for public display!

Qin Xiaoning is indeed a major figure in charge of Cangxing Academy. Just from Han Qianshan's brief description, he deduced some deeper levels of things.

Yun Hao still remained silent, just listening.

Qin Xia said that Yunhao is still acceptable.

But for a while, he couldn't figure out which powerful person in the imperial city had become his enemy.

Han Qian Shan frowned slightly and said, "Dean, we just happened to get some clues about the Blood Slaughter Hall's strongholds. I'll make another trip!"

Born into a scholarly family, Han Qianshan was not pedantic.

When someone came knocking, his attitude was simple and direct: fight back!

Qin Xiao hummed and said, "The hand of Huǒhuǒ Gǔ has reached too far. It's time to give it a good hammering."

Han Qian Shan: "Then I'll set off now!"

Qin Xiao: "Be careful."

Both Han Qianshan and Qin Xiao are decisive and take action immediately once they make up their minds!

After Han Qian Shan left, only Yun Hao and Qin Xiao remained in the main hall.

Qin Xiaomeng smiled gently and said, "Yunhao, you are a member of our Qingfeng Martial Academy. Now that you've come to the main academy, rest assured, with me Qin here and Master Han in charge, we will ensure your safety!"

Although this was Qin Xiao's first time meeting Yun Hao, he had gathered a lot of information about him beforehand.

It is rumored from the outside world that this is a super genius with talent that can surpass Han Qian Shan. This point, considering the information about Yun Hao's several moves, should be true.

After Yun Hao entered the main hall, Qin Xiao had been secretly paying attention to every change in his expression.

His calmness, composure, and unyielding attitude were qualities Qin Xiao admired greatly.

And in Qin Xiao's heart, there was also a feeling that Yun Hao was like an unsheathed sword, its sharpness completely concealed. Once this sword was drawn, it would surely unleash its formidable power, blooming with peerless brilliance that no one could withstand!

Thank you, Dean.

Yunhao expressed his gratitude for Qinxiao's statement.

Qin Xiao: "On the road of growth for young people, there will always be predecessors to escort and protect them. When we were young, we also had the protection of older generations."

This is also the meaning of Qingfeng Martial Academy's existence.

If even the young disciples of Lian Qingfeng Martial Academy can't be protected, then what use is there for me as the Grand Master

Just then.

An old man entered the hall.

"Dean," the elder bowed to Qin Xiao.

Qin Xia nodded and immediately said, "Yun Hao, this is Deputy Dean Lu Ming of our General Hospital."

"I've met Dean Lu," Yun Hao greeted.

Luming's face immediately showed a look of surprise: "You... you are the genius Yun Hao from Beihanguan"

Qin Xiaodao laughed: "I just asked Director Han to bring him over."

Lu Ming looked at Yun Hao, nodded and smiled: "As expected, there is no false scholar under the famous name. He has a dignified appearance and extraordinary bearing. The future is promising!"

Qin Xiao: "Dean Lu asked for me. What did he want"

"Dean, everyone who is participating in the Imperial Examination has arrived for the competition. They are all waiting for you." Lu Ming said.

Qin Xiao: “Okay, I know. I'll be there right away.”

Lu Ming replied with an "Yes" and then immediately left.

Yun Hao's eyes flashed.

Before, Chu Xinyue had told him that the Imperial Tournament was a grand event in the Qingfeng Dynasty, held once every three years. If one could win first place in the Imperial Tournament, they would be able to make a request to the emperor.

Chu Xin Yue suggested that Yun Hao should aim for first place, and then bring up the matter of entering the Imperial Palace's Soul Pool.

The secrets within the Soul Pool are related to the clues of Yun Hao's previous disciple, Cang Yao. This is his primary purpose for coming to the Imperial City.

Therefore, Yunhao directly spoke up and said, "Dean, can I participate in the competition for a spot in the Imperial Dynasty Competition"

Qin Xiaomei frowned slightly and said, "Yunhao, my advice is that you should focus on cultivating at the main institute for now and avoid getting involved in these matters."

After this storm passes and we have a clear picture of the situation, we can then make plans for the next step.

After all, there are just too many people who want to lay their hands on you. Sometimes, it's impossible to defend against everything!

Yun Hao calmly said: "The path of martial arts is long and arduous, with countless difficulties and dangers. If one stagnates because of some small obstacles, how can they reach the peak of the great way"

If those scoundrels dare to make a move, I'll strike them down with one sword!

Qin Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "Good, good! A sword strike to settle it, well said. Since that's the case, I won't stop you from participating in the qualifying tournament!"

Next, Qin Xiao raised his hand and waved it, a token flying into Yun Hao's hand.t came to Yunhao, Yuan Chunqing couldn't deduce any information at all...Just then.Suddenly, there were shouts of great panic from outside the courtyard."Your Majesty, disaster has struck! The remnant...
