Chapter 189 - 189: The Storm Exists Wherever I Am, the Heavenly Profound Palace Will Grant Storm Calming (2)
Di Cang looked at Pang Ji and exhaled. “The battle between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple has lasted for ten thousand years. There’s no need for us to delay the future of an examinee because of this. Don’t you think so, Second Headmaster?”
“Besides, involving a young man in the conflict between the Literary
Department and the Martial Temple will only cause a joke.”
Second Headmaster Pang Ji sighed and looked at Di Cang. “You also know that it’s a battle between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple…’ Di Cang understood and did not say anything else.
He knew Pang Ji’s personality very well. For the sake of the Literary Department, he was willing to pay any price.
Over the years, many generals of the Martial Temple had been suppressed under the policies of the Great Zhao Dynasty. On the Martial Arts Arena, the generals of the Martial Temple had lost more battles between the Literary Music Ranking and the Fierce General List.
This was the glorious moment when the Literary Department suppressed the Martial Temple.
The appearance of An Le made Second Headmaster Pang Ji worry about the future of the Literary Department. This young man who frequently summoned the Martial Chiefs of the Martial Chief Stone might become the person who could lead the rise of the Martial Temple.
This time, Prime Minister Qin was standing because An Le had once again provoked the phantoms of the previous Martial Chiefs in the martial examination. Therefore, Second Headmaster Pang Ji had completely made up his mind.
Di Cang knew that since Pang Ji had made a decision, he naturally would not change it easily.
The flames of war between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple ultimately burned onto An Le.
Even though An Le had yet to join the Literary Department and the Martial Temple, the young man’s talent was the source of the storm just by existing.
However, outside the Heavenly Profound Palace.
An Le was also a little surprised. He knew that Prime Minister Qin’s words were not only directed at him, but also at the Lin Residence.
However, the appearance of the Second Headmaster of the Literary Department made An Le feel like he was being targeted.
An Le was silent for a moment, not knowing the exact situation.
If he remembered correctly, he had a good chat with the First Headmaster and had a good relationship with the Third Headmaster.
He had only seen the Second Headmaster once in the Heart Questioning Forest. However, the Second Headmaster originally looked rather benevolent, so he probably had a good impression of him.
However, he did not expect that it was as if the two-faced character unique to scholars had stabbed him in the back.
“The reason why the Second Headmaster stepped forward should be because it involves the battle between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple. Both times, you summoned the wills of the previous Martial Chiefs on the Martial Chief Stone. The Second Headmaster was worried that you would join the Martial Temple, so the suppression against you has already begun.”
Just as An Le was puzzled, Ye Wenxi, who was at the side, spoke softly. Her soft and virtuous voice followed the spring breeze and entered An Le’s ears.
“You must have rejected the Literary Department’s invitation, right?” Ye Wenxi smiled dignifiedly and elegantly, looking like a well-bred young lady.
An Le nodded, and Ye Wenxi continued to talk about the conflict between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple.
Only then did An Le understand that the conflict between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple was so serious.
However, at this moment, it seemed like An Le had nothing to do.
Ye Wenxi stood side by side with him and spoke softly. An Le nodded and listened while absorbing Age Qi from her.
Ever since he stepped into the White Jade Square today, he had been preparing for the Hall Examination and had not had the time to absorb the Age Qi. Now, he could take advantage of the argument in the court to absorb the Age Qi.
He first took five wisps from the girl for free. Sima Pudu, Wang Qilin, Zhong Taohua, and Qin Hua’an, who was slowly getting up, also gave him five wisps each.
A total of 25 wisps of Age Qi easily entered his account.
Outside the hall, An Le was happily absorbing Age Qi.
In the court, the atmosphere gradually became solemn as Di Cang and the Second Headmaster’s aura collided.
On the throne, Emperor Zhao did not speak.
At this moment, the civil officials below had a myriad of thoughts in their hearts. Many civil officials looked at each other, their eyes flickering.
The Literary Department was the cradle of civil officials. Basically, most civil officials walked out of the Literary Department and had once stood out on the Literary Music Ranking.
In fact, many of them were even students of the Literary Department’s Second Headmaster.
Therefore, when the Second Headmaster of the Literary Department expressed his stance, many civil officials understood what the Second Headmaster meant. They no longer remained silent and walked out of the civil and military officials’ lineup.
They spread their wide sleeves and bowed deeply to support Prime Minister Qin.
Not to mention those who were from Prime Minister Qin’s faction, the civil officials of the other factions actually stood up to support Prime Minister Qin’s words.
The civil and military officials knew very well that Prime Minister Qin’s goal was not to deal with An Le, but more to target the martial arts aristocratic family, the Lin family.
The civil officials from the Literary Department were naturally quite enthusiastic about suppressing the martial arts families, so they were happy to take advantage of the situation.
Even Qin Lishi, who was standing at the front, was a little puzzled. However, he did not show it and still bowed.
He stood up and rejected the Martial Temple’s standard of using the Martial Chief Stone to test the champion of the martial examination. He only gave it a try and did not think that he could use it to void the martial examination.
He stood up this time mainly to pull out a sword and point it at the Lin Residence.
This led to the next storm.
However, even if An Le successfully entered the top three or even became the top scholar, he did not care. It would naturally be best if he could use the law to resolve it. If he could not, he could take it slow after the matter..
