The next day, the sun was shining brightly.
Vicious rode on the Startled Swan and appeared in front of the Welcoming Peak of Deity Academy. He looked out at the mountains and rivers of the academy. His light green robe fluttered in the wind, and he looked extremely relaxed and elegant.
Tianshen Academy had been established for a million years, and its students lived on 100,000 majestic peaks. The hierarchy was strict. In terms of the martial arts department alone, four part-time students slept in the same room, and they had to complete a large number of miscellaneous items every day. The outer court students lived in the outer 72 mountain ranges and had their own cave abodes. The students of the inner court lived in the inner thirty-six mountain ranges. Each of them had their own courtyard, and the spiritual energy was three times denser than that of the outer court!
Regardless of whether it was outer sect students or inner sect students, there were millions of them in Deity Academy. There were countless of them, like ants. However, students who could transcend the mortal world and reach the Transcendent Realm were relatively rare. They were called elite students. Not only did they live on the mountain peak where the spiritual energy was denser, but they also cultivated in a Spirit Gathering Array that could increase the concentration of spiritual energy by ten times.
As for the core students, they were all Heaven's Favorites at the Seventh Level Transcendent Realm and above. They had a high chance of becoming Legend Realm Kings in the future and were valued by the academy. Not only did they receive a large amount of offerings every month, but they could also cultivate in a small cave in the Spirit Ruins that had been passed down since ancient times.
Back then, when she was in Tianshen Academy, she was only at the second level of the Circulation Sea Realm. In the outer court, she was controlled everywhere. Now, in just over a year, the world had turned upside down.
Those who had cultivated with her back then were still lingering in the Outer Court and would at most rise to the Inner Court, but she had already broken through to the Transcendent Realm Seventh Level, her battle prowess comparable to a Legend Realm King, and was about to become a Core Disciple. Her status was even higher than the Outer Court Elders!
All of these changes were like a dream. Those enemies who seemed incomparably powerful and unshakable when they first entered the academy had now become as small as ants, and could be destroyed with a single finger.
"Yan Qingxuan, I couldn't find you in the school these past few months. You must have used the power of Heaven Dominating Alliance to hide in the Spirit Ruins to cultivate. When I become a core disciple, I'll see how long you can hide!”
A cold light flashed in Vicious 'eyes. He rode a light beam and dashed toward the Sacred Hall like lightning. That was where the qualification check and promotion procedures were conducted.
"Senior Sister Zhang? It really is you!"
Halfway there, four streaks of light suddenly dashed straight toward Vicious, and they cried out in surprise from afar.
Vicious could not help but stop in his tracks. He took a closer look and realized that they were the four students she had saved in the Shifter Emperor's ruins more than half a month ago. She remembered that their names were Fang Lin, Fang Yin, Su Ziyue, and Li Ming.?
When the four people flew closer, Su Ziyue, who was on the left, immediately said happily,""I knew that Senior Sister Zhang's strength was monstrous. That altar definitely wouldn't be able to hurt you!”
Fang Lin bowed slightly and said respectfully,""When the altar collapsed, we fled in panic. We wanted to wait outside, but the demon beasts in the ruins suddenly rebelled. We could only retreat temporarily.”
" I'm fine," Vicious said calmly." I just had a sudden epiphany and didn't return immediately after I entered seclusion. I'm sorry for making you worry."”
Fang Yin patted her slightly bulging front and said gently,""I see. No wonder we couldn't find any news of Senior Sister even after we asked around the academy.”
Su Ziyue noticed another problem. She widened her eyes and said,""Senior Sister was originally at the peak of the Sixth Level Transcendent Realm, but now that she has broken out, could it be…"
The other three also thought of a possibility. Their eyes widened in disbelief.
"That's right, I've broken through to the Seventh Level Transcendent Realm, and I'm heading to the Sacred Hall to become a Core Disciple."”
Although they had already guessed it, the four of them still couldn't help but gasp when they heard Vicious admit it.
"Senior Sister's cultivation speed is truly terrifying." Li Ming muttered.”
" I heard from Master that the stronger a person's combat strength is, the deeper their foundation is, and the more difficult it is for them to break through the realm," Fang Lin exclaimed.?When Senior Sister fought against the Blood Demon King with her Sixth Level Transcendent Realm cultivation, it was obvious that she had a deep foundation, but he didn't expect her to break through so quickly. She was truly a peerless Heaven's Favorite!”
The other three nodded in agreement. Su Ziyue said excitedly,"Senior Sister, let us accompany you to the Sacred Hall. In a year, you will directly become a core disciple from the outer court. Your name will definitely shake the entire academy! I'm afraid all the factions will fight to rope in Senior Sister!”
"That's right. Let us witness this moment.”Fang Yin looked at Vicious expectantly.
Vicious smiled and said casually,"If you're willing to follow, then follow."”
With that, the group of five flew toward the magnificent castle-like building in the Academy of Saints in high spirits.
"Eh? Why were there so many people gathered outside the Sacred Hall today? Could it be that there were others who had advanced to become core disciples?”Vicious looked at the crowd surrounding the inner and outer three floors of the Sacred Hall and couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.
Su Ziyue shook her head." I've seen the core student promotion ceremony a few times, but it's never been this lively. I'm afraid that a big shot has been promoted this time."”
"Won't you know if you ask?"
Vicious strode forward and said to a tall girl in a dark green dress,"May I ask what happened? What is everyone doing here?"
The girl turned around. She was a Fourth Level Transcendent Realm Heaven's Favorite, and upon seeing Vicious 'young age, she immediately revealed an arrogant expression and said in a dignified manner,"Don't you know how to call me senior sister? They didn't even know what was going on inside and came to join in the fun! Let me tell you, today is the day our martial arts department's peerless prodigy, Junior Sister Yan Qingxuan…No, Senior Sister Yan Qingxuan, will be promoted to a core student!”
At this point, the girl was still not done yet. She said with a look of pointing out the country," Look ahead, it's all the core students of Heaven Covering Alliance who came to congratulate us. This card is indeed worthy of being the most outstanding prodigy in the past ten thousand years of Deity College, other than Heaven Covering Crown Prince! She's the pride of us female students! Since you're here, you should watch the ceremony properly. Even if you can learn a little, it's your good fortune!”
"What is it? Yan Qingxuan had also become a core student?”Vicious raised his eyebrows in surprise.
However, Fang Yin, who was behind her, was very unconvinced. She said loudly,"No matter how talented Yan Qingxuan is, it took her a year and a half to become a core student. She can't compare to Senior Sister Zhang!”
