Several disciples training nearby couldn't help but whisper among themselves, their anxiety plain on their faces.
"Master Li's examination is in a month, but my Cultivation is still lacking..."
"Tell me about it! I don't know if I'll be able to break through to Embracing Pill Force."
"Sigh, we haven't seen Master Li in ages. I heard he's been in the back courtyard performing Alchemy. I wonder what kind of Pill takes this long to refine?"
...
The night grew darker, and moonlight, like liquid silver, flooded the square.
Only when it was well past 7 p.m. did the disciples, at a signal from Luo Xinyi, drag their weary bodies away.
The Transmission Square gradually fell silent, leaving only the sound of the night wind rustling through the leaves.
Beneath the moonlight, a massive golden figure circled downward. Its wingspan was nearly the height of a man, and it looked magnificent.
The Golden Feathered Eagle landed steadily on the edge of the Transmission Square.
