"Don't be nervous, just focus on sensing the power within your own bloodline, you can definitely do it."

"Don't worry, I feel that Chen Shao has changed from before, this time he will definitely awaken his bloodline."

In times of trouble, true feelings are revealed. Hearing Lin Tian and Zhang Ying's words, Qin Chen felt a warmth in his heart.

Suddenly, Qin Chen turned his head and looked towards the entrance of the square.

A slender figure slowly walked in from outside the square.

"Mother!"

Qin Yuechi arrived at the square, her eyes swept lightly, and it seemed like mother and son had a telepathic connection, their eyes meeting instantly.

Qin Yuechi smiled slightly, gave Qin Chen a cheering smile, and then, instead of walking towards him, she found a random seat in the stands and quietly sat down.

Although Qin Yuechi arrived quietly, her captivating beauty instantly attracted the attention of many people.

"Who is this woman? She's so beautiful!" a man exclaimed.

"Smack!"

His friend beside him immediately gave him a light flick on the head and whispered, "Keep your voice down, you don't recognize her? She's the eldest lady of the Qin family, Qin Batian's youngest daughter, Qin Yuechi."

"What? It's her? The former number one beauty of the capital, truly lives up to her reputation."

High up in the stands, Zhao Feng's eyes narrowed at this scene, a fierce light flashing in her eyes, "Hmph, I didn't expect that wretched Qin Yuechi to come as well. Fine, I'll get to see how her precious son is expelled from Tianxing Academy, hahahaha..."

Beside her, King Qi had a lascivious look in his eyes.

"The principal is here."

At this time, someone suddenly shouted, and the entire square instantly quieted down. A group of people walked in from outside the square, among them a white-haired elderly man in a moon-white long robe, who was none other than Tianxing Academy's Principal, Chu Weichen.

Beside him were several formidable individuals, and the group quickly arrived at the main table at the center of the high platform.

What shocked everyone was that usually during the annual assessment, Principal Chu Weichen would sit at the main seat, but this time, after some humble exchanges, a middle-aged man in a cyan martial robe sat at the most prominent seat, with Principal Chu Weichen sitting merely beside him.

"Who is this guy?"

"He's sitting in the main seat, never seen him before?"

"Could he be a big shot from the palace?"

Many students below were discussing animatedly.

"Huh, this time the Emperor actually sent Lingwu King Xiao Zhan to attend this assessment, it seems the Emperor places great importance on this assessment of Tianxing Academy?" Seeing the black-robed man, Prince Kang exclaimed in surprise.

Lingwu King Xiao Zhan was a war god figure in the Great Qi Nation, his cultivation reached the peak of the fourth-level Xuan level, only a step away from stepping into the Master level, known as the first strongman of the Great Qi Nation, the guardian of the palace.

Only he could sit above the same fourth-level Xuan level strongman, Principal Chu Weichen.

At this time, some princes and nobles, martial experts who had seen Xiao Zhan, were secretly discussing among themselves, "Although Tianxing Academy is the number one academy in the capital, it is not important enough for Lingwu King Xiao Zhan to personally come, right? The Lingwu King's presence must have another purpose."

"Could it be because of that reason..." Prince Kang pondered, suddenly thoughtful.

The venue for the year-end assessment was in the academy's martial field.

Despite being filled with many people, it still appeared vast and grand.

"Everyone, today is the day of our Tianxing Academy's assessment, welcome all of you to participate."

An elderly man in a gray robe stepped onto the high platform, speaking in a loud voice, his gaze sharp.

This person was Tianxing Academy's Deputy Principal Ge Hong, who presided over all major and minor meetings in the academy.

"This assessment is divided into two parts..." Ge Hong loudly explained on the platform.
