[God of Lost Fantasy]

Five hundred years ago, the enchantment collapsed.

The Immemorial Demon Sword appeared

and summoned innumerable following swords. Common people were affected

and plunged into misery and suffering.

Deity Cang, the leader of the Deity's Union, and many other soldiers died in battle.

To save the common people, the wife of Deity Xi,

the Sword Guard Lady, Huang

sacrificed her life

and tentatively sealed the sword.

Huang!

When Deity Cang died, he left instructions.

He ordered people to find his successor

so that the disaster of the sword might be eliminated forever.

[Lotus Academy]

To maintain the peace of the Nine Heavens Continent,

Lotus Academy will select and recruit the talented

and introduce them to the practice of cultivating

the Celestial Soul and Combat techniques to improve their ranks.

Every five years, they will jointly hold a royal banquet between two countries,

Yi Country and Xueyuan Country,

to select the people who can fight against the sword.

However, the sword has been here for a long time.

The darkest of times is quietly commencing.

Lotus Academy had no choice but to send disciples

to find the Celestial Soul Stone carrying the power of Deity Cang.

But they don't know that the true owner of the stone

is about to appear.

[Episode 1]

It's time for the quadrennial, the Four Great Academies'

- admission assessment. - That's right.

It's been a long time. I'm also looking forward to it.

We are responsible for the exam location, Tianyong City.

A few days ago, I sent out disciples.

They will get everything ready.

This is a rare opportunity. This time [Ren Qianxing - Lotus Academy's Great Elder]

I will leave the assessment tasks of the Four Great Academies to you.

[Tianyong City]

What is this?

[Notice: The Four Great Academies' admission assessment will be held in Tianyong City.]

Look. Look. Look.

- Admissions to the Four Great Academies. - Admission assessment of the Four Great Academies.

- Isn't that Qin Wentian? - Are you all right?

- Thank you, Sir. Thank you very much. - It's all right.

Take her back.

Child, let's go.

Young Master, we have business matters.

It's the Ye Clan's people.

What are they doing in Tianyong City?

Is it for the admission assessment of the Four Great Academies? [Qin Wentian] [Qin Clan Adopted Son]

[Bai Manor]

[Bai Qiuxue] [Bai Family's Eldest Daughter]

Older Sister.

Qing'er.

Did I interrupt your practice? [Bai Qing] [Bai Clan's Second Daughter]

Where have you been?

The Four Great Academies' admission assessment is soon; you still haven't practice at all.

Didn't Father say,

the four families will have an exemption to the quota?

They can directly enter the academy, right?

- I will never use that quota. - Older Sister!

That's a shortcut for useless people.

I will depend on my own capability to be admitted.

We don't know who in Tianyong City will participate in the assessment.

I really want to watch the fun.

You are the Bai Clan's Second Miss.

You... should focus on the entire Yi Country.

The best genius of Yi Country

is already engaged to my older sister!

How can he be the best genius?

My sister is being shy. She can be shy.

Eldest Miss and Second Miss, Young Master Qin would like to see you.

Older Brother Wentian.

- Older Brother Wentian! Older Brother Wentian! - Qing'er.

You are finally here.

All right. The city is quite lively these days.

I was out and saw that the imperial court has sent Ye Clan's army to Tianyong City.

The admission assessment of the Four Great Academies is amazing.

Wentian, I want to discuss with you the practice assessment.

Older Brother Wentian, you discuss first with Older Sister. I'll go back to my room.

When you have time, come visit me.

Wentian, let's go inside to talk.

I want to use the Silver Poisonous Needle Technique to communicate with the Soul Star

so I'll have confidence during the assessment.

The admission of the Four Great Academies provides a recommended quota for each of our families.

Why do you choose to work so hard?

I don't want to use the recommended quota.

Those are for useless people.

I will use my own strength to be admitted.

Wentian, sorry.

I wasn't talking about you.

The Silver Poisonous Needle Technique can open pulses,

but I haven't succeeded.

I believe in you.

Okay. Then I will respect your choice.

Qiuxue's aptitudes are indeed exceptional. She reached the Third Heaven so quickly.

Fourth Heaven's celestial soul.

That's bad. Third Heaven is already dangerous.

Keeping going to get the Fourth Heaven's celestial soul will endanger her life.

Stay true to your heart. You should not advance rashly to gain more skills.

The energy of the stars wanders in your vital energy channel.

Hold on to the Third Heaven.

I did it! I did it!

Wentian! I finally did it!

Congratulations, Qiuxue.

Thank you, Wentian.

Qiuxue, managing to reach the celestial soul,

- Which Heaven is it? - Uncle, it's the Third Heaven's celestial soul.

Good. [Bai Guangcheng] [Second Head of the Bai Clan]

You broke through the Celestial Soul Cohesion of the Third Heaven's celestial soul on your first try.

Unfortunately, I couldn't reach the Fourth Heaven's celestial soul.

Qiuxue, you already used too much inner energy.

You can't rush into reaching the celestial soul.

Wentian,

you worked hard today.

You should return home soon to rest.

Uncle, Wentian helped me today to reach the celestial soul and used too much energy.

What if we let...

Uncle Chen, it was my pleasure.

I'm leaving now. I will come back to visit some other time.

I'll walk you out.

Qin Wentian, you have a bad fate.

Don't blame me.

[Qin Manor]

Why should we give it to Qin Wentian?

I don't agree. Every house only has one examination exemption.

What a precious opportunity! Why should we give it to Qin Wentian?

[Qin Chuan] [Zhenyuan General]

Wentian has a Blind Pulse.

No matter how hard he works, he still has a Blind Pulse.

If he can't reach the celestial soul, he's not meant for cultivation.

I already talked about this with your father and second uncle.

It is for this reason that maybe Wentian

won't be able to get into the Four Great Academies during his life.

But you still have an opportunity,

So that's why Wentian will be sent to the Lotus Academy.

Maybe it can heal his Blind Pulse.

How laughable. How can you recover from a Blind Pulse?

Shang'er!

I didn't expect Father to use the quota to send me to Lotus Academy.

Please tell Qiuxue I came to give her some star stones to help her recuperate.

Young Master Qin, Second Lord invites you to sit in the guest room and rest.

Please.

- Did you already bring Qin Wentian into the guest room? - Yes.

Go. Send people to take care of this.

Kill Qin Wentian.

Don't worry My Lord. I know what to do.

- What are you doing? - Outside is very dangerous; please head back inside.

- What happened? - Young Master, please don't mind it.

Please remain inside.

Forget it. I'm going out to see.

Good-for-nothing, I'm telling you again.

You stay inside.

Our Eldest Miss already managed to reach the Third Heaven.

A person with a Blind Pulse like you, you really think highly of yourself.

Is it... Is it that Uncle Cheng...

- Let me go! - Stop right there!

Stop!

- Second Miss. - Older Brother Wentian, the Bai Clan is unworthy of you.

Qing'er, what is happening? I want to see your uncle.

- If Uncle doesn't agree, I can tell Father— - Don't ask me. I'm taking you away now.

You can't. He can't leave this room.

How dare you go against me? Let go!

Qing'er!

Eldest Miss. Eldest Miss.

- Older Sister. - Please take Second Lady away.

- Yes! - Older Sister!

Older Sister! Let me go!

Older Brother Wentian! Older Brother Wentian!

Qiuxue, what is happening?

Wentian,

we are both disciples of the four big families.

You should know clearly

that we bear the expectations of our families on our shoulders.

At first, we were engaged.

It was the Bai Clan seeking connections with your powerful clan.

I know, that you have gratitude

towards me, towards the Bai Clan.

Even if you trained to reach the summit, what would that change?

You're still...

You're still a person with a Blind Pulse.

You don't need to say it.

I understand it all.

Just go.

We've never belonged to the same world.

Qin Wentian is someone with a Blind Pulse.

He is destined to be mediocre all his life.

What's more, today is different than yesterday.

We don't need connections to the Qin Clan anymore.

They will be in our way.

You can't have any connections to Qin Wentian from now on.

Uncle, Wentian has a Blind Pulse.

No matter how hard he tries, he will still be a Blind Pulse.

If he can't reach the celestial soul, he's not meant for cultivation.

But no matter how many years you try,

even if you trained to reach the summit, what would that change?

You're still...

You're still only a person with a Blind Pulse.

[Imperial City]

His Majesty is gravely ill.

The crown prince is still young

and can't shoulder the heavy responsibilities.

I request that Prince of Zhenjiang, Yi Heng to be the prince regent to

take charge of the affairs of state on behalf of His Majesty.

We second this!

[Yi Heng] [Prince Regent]

Your Highness, the Prince Regent, this is the Glace Ice Flower from Xueyun State.

Legend says that it takes ten years for a leaf to sprout and a hundred years for a flower to bloom. [Ye Mo - Patriarch of the Ye Clan]

The pistil and stamen of the flower can cure all diseases.

Glace Ice Flower?

Where is Lord Mo?

Infanta Qingcheng is here!

[Mo Qingcheng] [Eldest daughter of the Mo Clan]

Greetings, Your Highness.

So, it's Princess Qingcheng.

Why are you here at the imperial court? Where is Mo Tianlin?

Your Highness, my father is ill.

He's recuperating and unable to come.

I'm here to represent him at the imperial court today.

How presumptuous.

Princess Qingcheng, the person who's standing in front of you

is the current prince regent.

Even more so, no woman has ever dared to attend Great Yi's Imperial Court.

Not only is your father absent, he even sent a low-ranking female

to barge into Geat Yi's Imperial Court.

There's no valid reason or justification.

Leave now.

I'm conferred by His Majesty as Princess.

His Majesty said that

I can go anywhere in the Yi Royal Palace.

Why can't I come to the imperial court?

Furthermore, my father did his best in reading the constellations

for the sake of the country and got ill.

I'm here to report on behalf of my father.

But based on what I see,

it seems you are trying to take credit for my father's work.

- Ridiculous. - Lord Ye.

Logically speaking, due to the current physical condition of my royal older brother,

he's unable to take charge of the affairs of the state.

The crown prince should manage the state instead.

But the crown prince is young and ignorant.

It's hard for him to shoulder heavy responsibilities.

Hence, I hope the ministers

will give me your full support

and share the worries of my Great Yi.

Your Highness, if there are no further matters,

I have completed my task. I will leave now.

Miss, the Snow Lotus has bloomed.

- It's so obedient this time. - Of course.

If it still doesn't bloom, I will use it to cook porridge.

There's a limit to one's patience, understand?

There's still this.

It still hasn't sprouted?

It has been many years and it still hasn't sprouted.

Is there a problem with the seed?

This seed is definitely rather strange.

I can't find a way to make it sprout.

- It will never sprout. Don't spend your energy on it. - Father.

Do you know what kind of seed this is?

Did you go to create trouble again? [Mo Tianlin] [Celestial Minister]

I already told you that I don't want to participate in the disputes at the imperial court.

Why are you always creating troubles for the Mo Clan?

Can you let me worry less?

Father, you haven't taken me out to play for a long time.

If you take me out on a tour, I won't be angry with you.

You are a girl. How can you keep thinking of wandering out there?

Spend more time with Nuo Lan and plant flowers and grasses in the garden.

Or read more books in my study. Wouldn't this be great?

Aunt is also a woman. Why can she wander all over the place?

If you can cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Realm just like your aunt

and want to stay out the whole day, I won't stop you.

Miss, let's go and read books in the study.

What's there to read?

He only knows how to dodge me all day.

I will show him what I'm capable of.

[Mo Manor]

[Ye Wuque - Eldest Son fo the Ye Clan]

[Mo Manor]

- Uncle Mo. - What's the eldest son of the Ye Clan doing here?

I'm here to discuss something with you.

Eldest Young Master Ye, please don't talk further.

I, Mo Tianlin, am used to being unrestrained.

I don't aspire to be a high ranking official.

Please request that a certain someone

not set his mind on me.

Then what about the entrance examinations for the Four Great Academies?

I'm old and unwell.

It's inadvisable that I go far away.

Someone, escort the guest out.

- Miss! Miss! - What's wrong?

I just heard Young Master Ye invite Old Master

to participate in the Four Great Academies' examinations.

This is interesting.

You must find out more about this situation.

Miss, you are interested in this?

It's so boring here. Of course, I want to go out.

Once it's done, I will take you along.

Really? You are so wise.

Qingcheng, do you know

who this porcelain doll is?

He's the Emperor of the Dark Night Tribe, the Demon Emperor of Dark Night.

Demon Emperor of Dark Night?

That's right. Five hundred years ago,

his wife, Huang, was

the Sword Guard Lady at that time.

Huang sacrificed herself for the people

and died in the middle of the battle.

The Dark Night Tribe's Demon Emperor blamed it on Emperor Cang

and believed he killed his wife.

He vowed revenge.

In the end, he followed a demonic path.

He went to the Endless Land of the Northwest

and united the Dark Night Tribe.

He became our great Yi Country's forever enemy.

Miss, what is it?

I'm fine.

You can leave.

Yes.

Miss, why do you dislike Young Master Ye so much?

He only wants to see me, to rope in my dad. Why should I mind him?

Say, why do you think my dad won't let me participate in the academy's examination?

Maybe Old Master thinks you can't pass the examinations.

Nuo Lan is spouting nonsense. Even though the recruitment for the Four Great Academies is a big event,

it's hard to prevent people from causing a disturbance.

Maybe, Master is afraid that Miss will encounter some danger.

Danger?

I've decided.

I will participate in this entrance examination.

- I want to go with you, Miss! - I don't want to go with you.

You're so dumb; you can't even climb over a wall.

If I am taking you out, my father will definitely find out.

Miss, you promised me yesterday,

that you would take me out to have fun.

Also, if you're gone, I am going to get punished.

I'll hit you unconscious or you pretend to be unconscious.

Choose one.

I'd rather pretend to be unconscious.

If I'm going tomorrow, you must help me in hiding it;

otherwise, my father will definitely punish you.

I know.

You're still not going to help me pack my stuff?

Okay.

Miss, have a look!

Come over here!

Look! Look! It's written really clearly.

- Today's student enrollment has been moved to Tianyong City. - Tianyong City?

Tianyong City is in a natural moat in the northwest

and the first defense line against the Dark Night Tribe.

All right. Let's go to Tianyong City to have a look.

[Notice: The Four Great Academies' admission assessment will be held in Tianyong City.]

What is this place? Why am I here?

The Celestial Soul Stone

has finally found its new master.

The big country of Yi

won't be peaceful anymore.
