Moving more than a foot of stone was very good for An Le, who had just entered the fourth realm of Body Tempering, but it was much inferior to Ye Wenxi’s two feet and three inches.

Even though this difference had nothing to do with the invincible aura, An Le still felt indignant.

Coincidentally, there was a special bond between the Martial Chief Stone and Green Mountain. An Le visualized the ancient scripture in the Mountain and

River Painting and actually appeared. He suppressed the Ancient Demon Five Animals scripture and attached it to his body.

Furthermore, the Inner Core produced the Green Mountain Mystic Intent and fused with the Ancient Demon Five Animals’ Mystic Intent, forming a very special Mystic Intent that far exceeded the original power of the Ancient Demon Five Animals.

Green Mountain soared into the clouds. The Ancient Demon stood on it and roared at the starry sky. It could fight an immortal in the sky!

An Le was delighted and surprised. Although the scripture he visualized in the Mountain and River Painting was incomplete, it made his Primordial Spirit more condensed and stronger.

Now, An Le realized that this scripture was not only a Primordial Spirit cultivation method, but it could also be used as a Body Tempering cultivation method!

Body Tempering and Spirit Refinement were common?!

Was there really such a strange cultivation method in the world?

An Le’s cultivation path was chosen by Madam Hua. However, she had once told him that 10,000 years ago, after the powerful Emperor who united the four seas and made the Dragon King come to the dynasty founded the Literary

Department and the Martial Temple, he divided Spirit Refinement and Body Tempering into two paths. He organized the two and cultivated them together, increasing the possibility of nurturing outstanding cultivators.

However, even if he cultivated Spirit Refinement and Body Tempering at the same time, there had never been the appearance of the fusion of the two cultivation methods!

An Le was puzzled. With his understanding of cultivation, there was indeed no explanation. There was no need to work hard and hurt his mind because of this.

As for the ancient scripture that cultivated Body Tempering and Spirit Refinement, An Le would have to study it carefully later.

Moreover, he had yet to obtain the complete ancient scripture. He needed to enter the Bamboo Sword Green Mountain to visualize and have a chance to comprehend and gather it.

Moving a stone three feet away was because the Martial Chief Stone was only three feet away from Di Cang.

No matter what, An Le had undoubtedly become the champion of the martial examination!

The blazing sun became dazzling and blazing!

An Le suppressed Ye Wenxi, Wang Qilin, Sima Pudu, and the other prodigies at the top of the Little Sacred Ranking and topped the literary and martial examinations!

At this moment, An Le could not help but smile. The ferocious tiger in his heart seemed to have let out a deafening roar.

The heroic qi in his heart grew stronger.

The Dao Fruit [Heroic Qi Attraction] seemed to jump at this moment.

It began to condense and absorb the heroic qi born from An Le’s body. An invisible wave immediately appeared, causing An Le’s aura to rise steadily.

The dragon roar above his head shook. That was because the invincible aura had grown stronger again. The Heavenly Dragon invincible aura seemed to have come alive.

At this moment, clouds surged over from the sky and covered the light, leaving only a pillar of light that projected on the young man’s majestic and heroic qi.

It was as if the world was celebrating the legend that the young man had created that was comparable to the Legendary Top Scholar in the past.

Shock, silence, and emotions surged in front of the most magnificent palace in Lin’an Prefecture. Many people’s emotions were difficult to understand. Looking at the young man standing in front of the Martial Chief Stone, they felt that a new legend was shining brightly and was about to be famous throughout the world.

Martial Chief Di Cang looked at the youth with a different aura and could not help but smile fervently. He had to pull this lad into the Martial Temple!

This lad was born for the Martial Temple!

Yes, the righteousness on the Literary Monument was an accident.

Martial Chief Di Cang announced the top three of the martial examination. They were An Le, Ye Wenxi, and Wang Qilin.

An Le was also the champion of the literary examination. The top in both the martial and literary examinations were all one person. In the past years, there might have been a final competition for the top scholar and second place.

Ye Wenxi was ranked fourth on the Little Sacred Ranking and An Le was ranked Martial Temple.

The top in both the martial and literary examinations was equivalent to gaining the recognition of the Literary Department and the Martial Temple at the same time. Any additional competition was the same as not trusting the professionalism of the Literary Department and the Martial Temple.

Ye Wenxi was ranked fourth on the Little Sacred Ranking and An Le was ranked eighth, so there was still a huge difference in their cultivation levels.

However, even Ye Wenxi couldn’t win the martial examination, and someone as proud as her wouldn’t choose to compete with An Le for the top scorer.

The top in both the martial and literary examinations was An Le. What was there to compete for? It meant that An Le’s performance in both examinations was better than hers. This was enough.

Even Sima Pudu, Wang Qilin, and the other geniuses had no objections.

As for Qin Hua’an, who was depressed and had lost a lot of his morale, there was even less of a need to talk about it. He didn’t even have the right to raise any objections.

Martial Chief Di Cang smiled. He carried the Martial Chief Stone and instantly rushed into the clouds. A moment later, he placed the Martial Chief Stone back in the Martial Temple and returned.

He cupped his fists at the Heavenly Profound Palace and saluted. “Your

Majesty, the martial examination has ended here. The top in both the martial and literary examinations has been decided.”

“As the best-performing candidate in both examinations, An Le should be the top scholar.”

Di Cang’s words were filled with energy, and his voice was like a tornado sound wave that crashed into the majestic and luxurious Heavenly Profound Palace.

The civil and military officials were silent with different expressions.

Emperor Zhao, who was sitting upright on the Emperor’s throne, placed his hands on it. He swept his gaze across it and looked down from the high and mighty position that symbolized the highest authority of Great Zhao.

He landed on the White Jade Square. He was dressed in white and had two swords at his waist. His aura transformed into a winding Heavenly Dragon.

An Le could feel this dignified and royal gaze.

Facing this gaze, An Let s back was straight, and his white clothes fluttered with the heroic qi of the spring breeze. His aura was like a rainbow, and his expression was normal..
