Urban Super Medical Sage Chapter 2371 - 2470: In the Spotlight! (Third Update)

Because, the Ancient Holy Academy itself is very, very, very difficult to enter. Every student in the Ancient Holy Academy is selected from thousands in the Heavenly Saint Academy, and students from the Heavenly Saint Academy are selected from billions in the entire Grand Cosmos World.

The worth of the Ancient Holy Academy is imaginable.

To put it this way, among the ten thousand students of the Ancient Holy Academy, even the one at the bottom, taken to the outside world, is capable of sweeping through a Third Grade Force!!!

Exaggerated to the extreme.

So, what kind of existence must the one ranked 39th on the Ancient Saint Ranking, among the ten thousand students of the Ancient Holy Academy, be?

It’s unimaginable, right?

Moreover, those ranked higher on the Ancient Saint Ranking, like the top 20, top 10, and top 5, are rarely seen in the academy. Most of the time, they are like the Divine Dragon, unseen, making the 39th on the Ancient Saint Ranking like a star in the Saint Academy.

Naturally attracting attention.

There’s another significant reason.

It’s that Gao Xiu himself is a Sword Cultivator.

Sword Cultivators have a great advantage in the Forest of Emperor Weapons because most of the Imperial Soldiers in the Forest of Emperor Weapons are swords.

Gao Xiu, an exceptional Sword Cultivator ranked 39th on the Ancient Saint Ranking, has an even greater advantage.

Since entering the Saint Academy, it’s estimated that Gao Xiu has ventured into the Forest of Emperor Weapons over forty times.

Never returning empty-handed.

Every time he brings out three, five Emperor Swords.

With so many Imperial Soldiers, Gao Xiu certainly can’t use them all himself.

Thus, Gao Xiu is also smart. Every time he exits the Forest of Emperor Weapons, he immediately auctions the Emperor Swords he brings out to exchange for martial cultivation resources he needs from other students in the Saint Academy.

After all, not every student in the Saint Academy possesses the ability to freely retrieve Imperial Soldiers from the Forest of Emperor Weapons. To them, Imperial Weapons are quite enticing.

Over time.

Whenever Gao Xiu ventures into the Forest of Emperor Weapons, students gather at the entrance.

On one hand, they want to witness Gao Xiu’s prowess.

On the other hand, they hope that if Gao Xiu brings out any good Imperial Soldiers, they can be exchanged for martial cultivation resources.

Today.

It’s precisely the day when Gao Xiu, after hundreds of years, once again enters the Forest of Emperor Weapons.

There are more than ten thousand students from both the Heavenly Saint Academy and the Ancient Holy Academy observing.

Vast and grand.

These students received the news early.

Arriving at the Forest of Emperor Weapons early, now, even though Gao Xiu hasn’t arrived yet, they are excited and eagerly awaiting.

Suddenly.

Someone shouted.

"Gao... Gao... Brother Gao, is coming!"

Then.

Instantly, over ten thousand people looked in one direction.

In sight.

A man wearing a purple Yun robe, stepping on cloud boots with Qilin patterns, carrying a longsword.

The man’s demeanor was like an immortal, with rising long hair, a face like jade, and a slender build.

With a gentle smile, he walked towards the Forest of Emperor Weapons.

This person.

324,000 years old.

Prison Suppressing Emperor Extreme Realm Sixth Layer Peak Realm.

Clearly, his aura is very restrained.

But as he walks by, the thousands of observing students still shiver.

It feels like a fierce sword that can shatter the heavens, cut through Jiuyou, penetrate the heart of the earth, and see through the void is approaching!!!

Soon.

Amidst the silence, some trembling discussions arose:

"Brother Gao’s aura has... has become much more frightening."

"Among the sword cultivators in the Saint Academy, Brother Gao must be in the top three."

"I... just by looking at Brother Gao, I feel as if my eyes are being pierced by a longsword, it’s too scary."

"This is still with Brother Gao deliberately restraining his aura, otherwise, just by standing there, he could use Sword Intent to kill us."

"The existence ranked 39th on the Ancient Saint Ranking, truly... truly terrifying."

.........

Gao Xiu is already accustomed to these eyes of admiration, envy, and awe, and also to those praising, yearning, and flattering voices.

He walked forward.

Towards the entrance of the Forest of Emperor Weapons.

At the entrance.

Five people have already been waiting.

Those five are also students of the Saint Academy, 2 from the Ancient Holy Academy, and 3 from the Heavenly Saint Academy.

Because the Forest of Emperor Weapons requires six people to venture together each time.

Each time, seven people must be gathered, only then will the Forest Guardian Elder open the Forest of Emperor Weapons.

The original intention was that by entering together, they could cooperate and face fewer dangers.

The Forest of Emperor Weapons is also dangerous, and the dangers are terrifying; Imperial Soldiers aren’t easily obtained.

However, over time, after entering together, they would disperse and go solo, becoming an unwritten rule.

Therefore, Gao Xiu doesn’t mind who the other six people entering with him are, it doesn’t matter.

"Greetings Brother Gao." As Gao Xiu walked over, those five already waiting students greeted respectfully, their eyes filled with obvious awe and reverence!!!

Gao Xiu nodded slightly.

His bearing was still high.

Of course, he’s qualified for it, ranked 39th in the Ancient Holy Academy, incredibly terrifying!

With those present, there’s a total of only six people including Gao Xiu. They still lack one student before the Forest Guardian Elder will open the Forest of Emperor Weapons, so they can’t enter yet.

Gao Xiu isn’t in a hurry.

Stands before the entrance of the Forest of Emperor Weapons, raising his head slightly, gazing at the large stone beside the entrance.

The stone is large.

Pure black.

It’s engraved with names, numbers, etc.

Moreover, those names are ranked.

These rankings are based on the total number of Imperial Soldiers obtained by academy students entering the Forest of Emperor Weapons.

On those rankings, the second place, is quite striking.

Precisely Gao Xiu.

Gao Xiu: 97 Imperial Soldiers (93 Cloud Imperial Weapons, 4 Spirit Imperial Weapons).

And the first place, is Qu Mu.

Qu Mu: 104 Imperial Soldiers (90 Cloud Imperial Weapons, 14 Spirit Imperial Weapons).

Qu Mu utterly defeats Gao Xiu in both numbers and quality.

Of course, Gao Xiu is still good, ranking second!

Keep in mind, Gao Xiu’s Ancient Saint Ranking is only 39.

Of course, if we delve deeper, Gao Xiu being second has quite a bit of water, he has ventured into the Forest of Emperor Weapons over forty times, gaining only 97 Imperial Soldiers.

While Qu Mu has entered the Forest of Emperor Weapons just seven times, yet has 104 Imperial Soldiers.

The disparity in worth is imaginable.

Yet still, Gao Xiu is very, very, very proud.

Moreover, he looks forward to surpassing Qu Mu in total Imperial Weapons after another one or two ventures, to take first place.

Even though that first place, compared to Qu Mu, is far less valuable, it’s still a first place!

Taking first would also raise his profile significantly.

"Compared to Qu Mu, just 7 Imperial Soldiers short. This time might not make it, but next time should be close." Gao Xiu thought, eagerly, eagerly, having long awaited the day he takes first place.

Just then.

The Forest Guardian Elder appeared.

The Forest Guardian Elder glanced at Gao Xiu: "Here again?"

"Yes! Greetings Elder Feng!" Gao Xiu nodded heavily.

This Elder Feng is said to be a distant relative of Dean Feng Qiu.

As for the other five students who are entering the Forest of Emperor Weapons with Gao Xiu, they were completely ignored by the Forest Guardian Elder Feng.
