Inquiry Sword Peak is where the mountain gate of the Celestial Sword Sect is located.

Therefore, those who are not part of the Celestial Sword Sect usually cannot set foot here.

If anyone dares to force their way in, even if they escape the interception by the Mountain Guard Disciples, they would be destroyed by the Sect Defense Array.

Wang Ruoxie, Xiao Ningyue, and Leng Ao walked along the mountain path paved with bluestone slabs.

Xiao Ningyue is originally from the Celestial Sword Sect, so naturally, no Mountain Guard Disciple would come out to stop her.

Moreover, Wang Ruoxie found that whenever they encountered disciples from the Celestial Sword Sect along the way, they would almost always salute Xiao Ningyue, or at least very politely call her Senior Sister Xiao.

Obviously, Xiao Ningyue is not just an ordinary disciple, no wonder she said she holds some authority within the Celestial Sword Sect.

Of course, Wang Ruoxie could also see admiration for Xiao Ningyue in the eyes of those young disciples.

He naturally wouldn't be surprised by this, as Xiao Ningyue's appearance indeed makes her a peerless beauty, and she also has rather extraordinary martial arts aptitude.

At the age of sixteen, she achieved the Seventh Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm and entered the Hidden Dragon List, ranking three hundred and sixty-seventh.

Her future achievements will surely not be as simple as the Element Transformation Realm, with a great chance of stepping into the Celestial Human Realm.

How could one not admire such a woman?

If it weren't for having memories from a previous life and experiencing betrayal, maybe he would have been attracted to Xiao Ningyue too.

Moments later, the three of them arrived at an extremely spacious plaza.

"This is the Martial Arts Training Ground of the Celestial Sword Sect. The first round of examination will also take place here. You should wait here for a moment. Once everyone arrives, the examination will begin."

Xiao Ningyue briefed Wang Ruoxie and Leng Ao before turning around and leaving.

After Xiao Ningyue left, Wang Ruoxie and Leng Ao each walked toward separate sides.

If it weren't for Xiao Ningyue, they might not have traveled together. Now that they've successfully arrived at the Celestial Sword Sect, neither wants to stay with the other anymore.

At this time, the plaza had already gathered a considerable number of people, all young men and women, and at least at the Fourth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm.

The entire plaza is incredibly wide, accommodating tens of thousands of people without feeling crowded.

In the center of the plaza, a huge rectangular battle platform had already been constructed.

Although the examination hadn't started yet, everyone appeared extremely excited, their eyes full of anticipation.

They came today to participate in the entrance examination of the Celestial Sword Sect. If they pass successfully, they could become disciples of the Celestial Sword Sect, achieving great success in life.

At this moment, almost everyone was rubbing their fists, eager to try.

"The allure of the Celestial Sword Sect is indeed extraordinary."

Wang Ruoxie glanced around, sighing in his heart.

Just one entrance examination brought tens of thousands of young elites to participate, and since they dared to attend, these people must have extraordinary aptitude and bloodline.

"Friend, is this your first time participating in the examination?"

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded behind Wang Ruoxie.

Turning around to look, he saw the speaker was a young boy in a green robe, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with sword-shaped eyebrows and bright starry eyes, appearing quite handsome.

"First time?"

Wang Ruoxie looked at the boy with some confusion. Could it be possible to participate in the second examination?

"It seems you're indeed participating for the first time."

The boy saw Wang Ruoxie's expression and smiled while speaking.

After a pause, he continued, "You should know that the first round of the Celestial Sword Sect's examination involves testing aptitude and bloodline."

Wang Ruoxie nodded slightly; the rules of the examination had already been informed to him by Xiao Ningyue on the way.

"Passing the first round indicates that your aptitude and bloodline has met the requirements, qualifying you to join the Celestial Sword Sect. However, during the second round, some people do not perform up to standard, or just have bad luck, unable to pass the examination."

The boy continued, "These people can get a second chance for the examination."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ruoxie felt relieved. It seems the higher-ups of the Celestial Sword Sect don't want to miss out on any real talents.

Those who pass the first round of examination have already met the conditions to join the Celestial Sword Sect with their swordsmanship talent and bloodline power but failed the second round due to various reasons.

After a year of hard cultivation, these people's progress will certainly not be small. Having experienced the examination once, their mindset and experience are far beyond those who are participating for the first time, greatly increasing their chances of passing.

In a short conversation, Wang Ruoxie learned that the boy's name was Song Qing, a member of the Song Family of Royal City, considered a noble son.

After all, a family capable of establishing itself in Royal City must be extraordinary.

"Brother Wang, I've heard that your Southern Prefecture has a young talent named Leng Ao; I wonder if he is here this time."

Song Qing said to Wang Ruoxie.

"Yes, that would be Leng Ao."

Wang Ruoxie nodded, then gestured to Song Qing towards where Leng Ao was.

"So he is Leng Ao, nothing special."

Song Qing glanced at Leng Ao, then pouted.

"Brother Song, do you hold a grudge against him?"

Wang Ruoxie glanced at Song Qing with surprise, asking.

"No grudge, just heard this guy is extremely arrogant, relying on his status as the Crown Prince of the Southern King, with some aptitude, acting as if no one matters."

Song Qing smiled lightly and replied.

Wang Ruoxie felt speechless; it seems Leng Ao's notoriety has already spread to Royal City.

Besides, he should not be the first one targeted by Leng Ao.

"What's the story between you and him?"

Song Qing looked at Wang Ruoxie and asked again.

Wang Ruoxie didn't hide it, directly telling him about his six-month wager with Leng Ao.

"Haha… didn't expect Brother Wang to be such a person."

After Wang Ruoxie finished, Song Qing laughed heartily, saying, "But, if it were me, I couldn't endure this guy's repeated provocations and would definitely teach him a lesson immediately."

Youth is carefree, and particularly for someone like Song Qing, a young talent, naturally proud and arrogant, wouldn't let anyone provoke him.

"Directly teach him a lesson, at most, causing him more injuries. Afterward, he would still find ways to trouble you. For dealing with people like him, only by trampling on their pride can they truly fear you at heart, not daring to provoke you easily again."

Wang Ruoxie smiled calmly, saying.

He is experienced in dealing with extremely egotistical people like Leng Ao.

For example, the previous Su Weicai was like this; he considered his calligraphy unmatched, utterly disregarding Wang Ruoxie.

Wang Ruoxie surpassed him in calligraphy with absolute superiority.

Another example is Wang Ruokun, who considered himself unmatched in talent as the first genius of the Wang Family; Wang Ruoxie defeated him forcefully at the clan meeting.

In his view, teaching them a lesson directly is satisfying, but to make them truly fear you, you must crush their pride.

"Brother Wang, high opinion."

Song Qing smiled and commented, his eyes showing a hint of apprehension.
