After the people from Heaven Dominating Alliance left, Law Enforcement Celestial Venerable, Elder Yin, and the others also disappeared. The Sacred Hall returned to peace.
It was only at this moment that the elders of the Hall of Saints came forward with trembling hands and said respectfully,""Vicious Zhang, since you have already proven your cultivation, there is no need for this assessment. Shall we proceed with the advancement ceremony now?”
Vicious nodded slightly and followed the elders into the Sacred Hall. In front of the hall, there were many paintings floating. In each painting, there was a peerless expert. Some were singing with a sword, some were fighting with ferocious beasts, and some were in a dangerous place. Each figure was like a red cloud rising from the east, and their aura was soaring. They were like gods and immortals. They were the portraits of the leaders of Deity Academy.
On the left and right sides of the hall, there were also many paintings. On each painting was a young prodigy. They were portraits of the saints of the academy. The Holy Disciples of Deity Academy had a high status and were qualified to inherit the leadership of the academy. Their status was even higher than Grand Elders like Lie Wuji.
Vicious took a quick glance and found a portrait of Su Ziyue's brother, the leader of the Gentlemen Party, Su Ziming. The entire painting exuded a righteous aura and looked very upright.
At the same time, Vicious also found a portrait of the Crown Prince. It was also a young man with only a side profile. He was dressed in white and held a Dao book in his hand. He faced the boundless North Sea and had a faint sadness, as if he was pitying the world and wanted to create a world of morality and peace.
After a round of formalities, the presiding elder said in a dignified manner,"From today onwards, I will promote Hen Zhang to a core student. The purpose of our Tianshen Academy is to exterminate evil, protect the world's peace, and create a prosperous era of morality. As a high-ranking disciple of the academy in the future, you should also take responsibility for the lives of the world. Tianshen Academy will be your most solid backing!”
"Yes, sir!"
When Vicious heard these words, he instantly felt an incomparably grand will. He also finally understood the reason why Tianshen Academy was known as the leader of the four great academies on the continent. This kind of magnanimity was not something that ordinary ancient sects and sacred grounds could compare to!
Walking out of the Sacred Hall, Su Ziyue and the others immediately came up to him and said happily,""Congratulations to Senior Sister Zhang for successfully advancing and becoming a core student!”
The green-robed woman didn't leave either. She watched from afar for a long time before she finally walked up nervously and said with a trembling voice,"Senior…Senior Sister Zhang, I was blind and didn't recognize Mount Tai. I hope you can be magnanimous and don't take it to heart.”
Vicious smiled and waved his hand." It's just a small matter. Don't worry about it."”
The green-robed woman let out a long sigh of relief and revealed a very grateful expression. She said nervously,"My name is Zhou Lu 'e, and I live in the Holy Capital. If Senior Sister Zhang goes to the Holy Capital, you can look for me to be your guide.”
After saying that, he bowed respectfully again before walking away excitedly.
Fang Lin's gaze focused as he gazed at Zhou Lu'e's back. He said softly,""Zhou is the surname of the imperial clan of the Saint-Ancestor Empire. I'm afraid this student's background isn't simple.”
"Zhou Lvye?" Vicious committed this name to memory. The Saint Capital was located in the center of the world, the capital of the St. Ancestor Empire. There were countless experts and hermits. It was a place that she had to visit.
The five of them exchanged a few more words before Vicious led them outside. However, she did not expect that there would be more students surrounding them than when she first arrived.
The moment Vicious appeared, the outside world immediately erupted into an uproar.
"Vicious King, I heard that you have inherited Elder Yuehua's Sword Dao. Our Ancient Sword Alliance sincerely invites you to join.”
"Sister Zhang, our Hundred Flower Alliance is full of women.”
"Our Heavenly Cloud Alliance is one of the five major factions in the academy. As long as Junior Sister Zhang is willing to join, you can choose any of the emperor level cultivation techniques in the alliance.”
……
Fang Yin, Li Ming, and the others widened their eyes. They didn't expect so many parties to invite Vicious to join. Moreover, Ancient Sword Alliance, Hundred Flower Alliance, and so on all had Holy Disciples in charge. They were the top parties in the academy.
Vicious was not used to being surrounded by so many people. He immediately said calmly,"I'm used to traveling alone and have no intention of joining any party. I appreciate your kindness.”
The envoys from the various factions were not willing to give up so easily. Just as they were about to continue pestering him, Su Ziming suddenly stepped in front of them. He released the aura of a Legend rank King and said elegantly,"Since Junior Sister Zhang is unwilling to join the party, please return.”
After all, Su Ziming was the leader of the Gentleman Party and a dignified Saint. His words carried a different weight. Although the messengers of the other parties were unwilling, they could only leave helplessly.
Vicious heaved a sigh of relief and said calmly,"Thank you, Senior Brother Su, for saving me twice. However, I'm not interested in the Gentlemen's Party.”
Su Ziming smiled bitterly and said,""Junior Martial Sister Zhang is my sister's savior. This little help is nothing. As for the matter of the factions, Junior Sister Zhang was afraid that she had some misunderstanding. The factions in Tianshen Academy were not a place for scheming, but a unit for resource allocation. The academy's resources were limited, and there were many students. Thus, most of the benefits were distributed to the various parties, and the parties would distribute them. Junior Sister Zhang, you've actually lost a lot of benefits that should have belonged to you by not joining a party.”
"There's actually such a thing?" Vicious revealed a look of surprise. This was the first time he had heard such a thing.
