Chapter 223: 5 Elders of the School
There were more than forty people and more than a dozen carriages, with three to four people sitting in each carriage. These carriages were driven by the captains of each team, and the group drove towards the city gate of Lingdu in a mighty manner.
The crowds watching from the outskirts saw this scene and took out their message cards to inform their closest relatives:
"Guess what I saw in the suburbs?"
"I saw the true appearance of the Celestial Card Maker!"
"I'm not lying to you. She's the Celestial Card Maker. She's so young, only thirteen or fourteen, yet she can control Saint-level cards. If she's not the Celestial Card Maker, who else could she be?"
"Yes, she's in town. Apparently, she's here to participate in the ranking tournament."
……
The news that the Heavenly Card Maker had entered the city spread rapidly into Lingdu City from the mouths of these people.
Before Xie Yuwei and the people from Fengyun Academy entered Lingdu, the top leaders of Lingdu already knew about the arrival of the Heavenly Card Maker.
The ranking competition is organized by the National Master's Mansion, and the colleges across the country are also under the jurisdiction of the National Master's Mansion's department. They are very interested in the Heavenly Card Maker, but they dare not do anything to Jie Yuwei within the scope of Lingdu.
There was no need for the Imperial Master's Mansion to make a statement, as everyone knew that Xie Yuwei was under the protection of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
Under pressure from the Imperial Master's Mansion, they could not force Jie Yuwei and could only treat her with courtesy.
Therefore, Xie Yuwei and her group entered the city gate of Lingdu very smoothly. The guards guarding the city did not make things difficult for them. As soon as they entered the city gate, they were tried to win over by many people.
"Master, I am the daughter of the Li family. Our master invites you to come and have a chat!"
"Master, our prince has ordered a table of wine and food at the Delicious Restaurant and would like to invite you to dine together."
"Master, I am Miss Wu, and my young lady invites you to enjoy the flowers with her."
……
Facing these people's invitations, Xie Yuwei declined them one by one. She politely said to everyone, "This is my first time in Lingdu. I'm unfamiliar with the place and don't plan to meet with you all for the time being. Please forgive me!"
The group of people who wanted to win over Jie Yuwei did not have any hope for the purpose of this trip. Seeing that she did not accept anyone's invitation, they would have an explanation when they returned, so they did not force Jie Yuwei.
Seeing that Jie Yuwei had expressed her stance, they bowed to her, made way for her, and watched the people from Fengyun Academy enter the city.
With the spread of the communication card, the news that the Heavenly Card Maker had entered the city spread throughout Lingdu like the wind, and even ordinary people knew the news.
Xie Yuwei felt the aura of the communication cards flying around in the city, and couldn't help but say to Xu Yan: "I didn't expect so many people in Lingdu to use the communication cards."
Xu Yan looked at the flying card aura and said to Jie Yuwei, "Ever since you developed the communication card, the Card Spirit Hall has been copying this card in large quantities."
"This card is of a very low level, and many card makers can copy it. Because it is easy to transmit and has a wide range of uses, it spreads very quickly."
Xie Yuwei nodded to show that she understood. She used great patience to avoid intercepting the random information flying in the air.
Qiu Xing understood Yu Wei's intention and said to her, "They are all from top families in Lingdu. Ordinary people don't dare to intercept their messages."
"Even if they were our enemies, they wouldn't intercept the information in the air without any covert means."
Of course, if there are means and strength, intercepting information in the air is common.
Xie Yuwei didn't know much about Lingdu. She followed Feng Qing into the city. Because she was so well-behaved and quiet, the common people who heard the news saw their convoy entering the city and for a moment they didn't recognize who the legendary celestial card maker was.
Shortly after entering the city, Yan Hongxue and Zhou Zhiyuan left one after another.
Xie Yuwei looked at Xu Yan and Qiu Xing who were standing by her carriage and said, "Master Xu, Master Qiu, you just returned to the capital and must have your own things to attend to. You can go ahead and do your work. I will just follow Dean Feng."
Xu Yan smiled nonchalantly and said, "It doesn't matter if I spend a little time like that. I'll take you to the school and then back to Kaling Hall."
Xie Yuchen and Xie Yufei were sitting in Xie Yuwei's carriage. When they heard Xu Yan's words, they didn't understand and asked, "Are we going to the school? The school at the Imperial Master's Mansion?"
Xu Yan saw Jie Yuwei looking at him inquiringly, so he said to them, "That's right, it's the Imperial Master's Academy. All academies in the world are under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Master's Academy."
"All the colleges in the world will participate in the ranking competition to compete for the defensive core. The ranking competition is also under the responsibility of the department."
Xie Yuchen and Xie Yufei nodded in understanding.
Xie Yuwei raised an eyebrow and asked, "Isn't the Imperial Preceptor's Office's power too great? Does the royal family really trust the Imperial Preceptor's Office to control the lifeblood of the human race?"
In her opinion, when a force is above the royal family, the royal family will not allow such existence at all, and they will definitely find ways to destroy this force.
Xu Yan looked at Li Yuwei deeply and said, "What can the royal family do if they are worried? If there were no Imperial Master's Mansion, the human race would have perished long ago."
The people from Fengyun Academy traveled to the central city of Lingdu. Although they took a carriage, it still took them two days to enter the city center through the city gate.
The city center is the core area of Lingdu. In addition to the Imperial Palace and the Imperial Master's Mansion, it is also dotted with residences of various major forces, as well as administrative offices, shops, etc.
When Xie Yuwei and her group entered this area, the school sent people to greet them.
"Fifth Elder, why are you here to greet us in person?" When Feng Qing saw that the person who greeted them was the Fifth Elder from the Imperial Master's Mansion, he excitedly walked up to the Fifth Elder and said.
The Fifth Elder scanned the convoy and said to Feng Qing, "I will take you there to settle down."
When Feng Qing saw him like this, he knew why he came to greet them in person.
He said to Xie Yuwei, who was behind the convoy, "Student Xie, this is the fifth elder in charge of the Imperial Master's Department. Would you like to come down and meet him?"
When Xie Yuwei heard Feng Qing's words and thought of her mother's position, she was also curious about what the elders of the Imperial Master's Mansion looked like, so she got off the carriage.
The Fifth Elder had long known that the Heavenly Card Maker was very young, and that she was Lin Zhixue's daughter. However, when he saw Jie Yuwei in person, he was still surprised by her immaturity.
"Very good! She's a good kid." The fifth elder said lovingly to Jie Yuwei.
Xie Yuwei thought he would ask her many questions about card making, but unexpectedly he just praised her.
Xie Yuwei felt a little embarrassed to be praised by an elegant and calm old man who seemed full of wisdom and could see through people's hearts.
"Greetings, Fifth Elder!" Xie Yuwei saluted the Fifth Elder.
She could feel that the Fifth Elder was very powerful.
He was the most powerful person she had ever seen, even more unfathomable than Ming Zihui.
The Fifth Elder looked at Jie Yuwei with gentle eyes, and it could be seen from his eyes that he was a very determined and tolerant person.
He said to Xie Yuwei, "We are all family, don't be polite, I will take you in and settle you down."
