“Return to Haotian Academy? Are they opening a new map?”
“What the hell, only those four can take the quest and show off? Why?”
“I want to go too! Brother Ming, please take me with you!”
“Did you hear that keyword? Other sect geniuses? What the hell, the game is finally starting its main storyline, unveiling the world background?”
“I have one question: are there any sisters from other sects?”
“I'm supposed to be NO1? Crush everything and take first place? Damn, this quest is too badass!”
The players were in an uproar, excitedly discussing the news. Some players even logged out at lightning speed to post this bombshell announcement on the forums.
“Is this going to trigger PK mode? Hell yeah!” Indomitable Bear Strong's eyes were ablaze with the spirit of challenge.
“A big event? I like it!” Wang Lufei's eyes lit up, thinking, “Crushing everything, damn, that's exactly what I'm about.”
“Other sect geniuses? Is this going to be a competition against other cultivators? We need to be well-prepared!” The National Server's First Ice Mage thought to himself, deep in concentration.
“Sisters, big sisters, long sisters, white sisters...” Niu Roumian was thinking about something completely different from the other three.
At the same time, in the Tianyuan Region, Zhengyuan Sect:
“Hahaha, He Yiming, this time you're done for!” Gu Changfeng laughed heartily.
“The Haotian Academy assessment, although it's said we can't rely on external help, can't use our own spiritual tools, and can't use protective artifacts from our elders...”
“But what does that matter?”
“My grandfather is the vice president of Haotian Academy and has already told me the details of the assessment! The elders of our sect have already prepared perfect strategies and countermeasures!”
“Not to mention, I've spent 10,000 spirit stones to buy these pills from the black market that can greatly boost my abilities in a short time!” Gu Changfeng's gaze shifted to the several maidservants beside him, each holding a brocade box containing bottles of incredible pills with astonishing auras.
“And with you four, each of you is a true genius! The future is limitless!”
“Tell me, can you all take first place?” Gu Changfeng laughed maniacally, eyes gleaming with excitement as he looked at the four individuals.
These four were all cultivators who had trained for over ten years!
Moreover, they weren't those who frantically consumed pills to increase their cultivation but lacked practical combat ability. No, these four had purposely suppressed their cultivation progress, slowly and steadily progressing, with solid foundations, stable auras, and extraordinary talents. Each of them had a unique constitution and unparalleled talent!
“Don't worry, Sect Leader, we don't need the help of the other three seniors. Even I, with the weakest cultivation, can easily crush He Yiming and his trash disciples!” One of the four, a cultivator at the early Spiritual Vein Realm, who was almost at the mid-Spiritual Vein Realm, spoke arrogantly.
The man had a strange red totem-like symbol on his body, faintly exuding a powerful life force!
He possessed the bloodline power of the Sub-dragon Qingtian Dragon!
“He Yiming, this time, I will make you lose all face. I will stomp you beneath my feet and make you lose everything!” Gu Changfeng nodded in satisfaction, a twisted look on his face as he silently screamed in his heart.
Meanwhile, in the Northern Spirit Realm, far in the west:
In a world of ice and snow, inside a grand ice palace built on a glacier, a beautiful, ethereal figure rose slowly.
“Palace Master, are you leaving?” An elderly man spoke, his aura exuding terrifying power that surpassed the Foundation Establishment stage.
“Hmm, Haotian Academy's assessment was moved up!” The beautiful woman spoke softly, her voice cold yet filled with authority.
“Heh, this small assessment at Haotian Academy? With just one word from you, Palace Master, I can have their dean directly let you pass! Haotian Academy could never reject our Ice Palace's demands!” Another elder spoke confidently, seemingly dismissing Haotian Academy altogether.
“No, I want to participate personally. Seventh Elder, go to the outer sect and pick three disciples at random!” The stunning woman ordered, her gaze turning to a maidservant who had been following her.
“Qing'er, you come with me as well!”
“Yes, Palace Master!” Maidservant Qing'er nodded, excitement and joy evident on her face.
“I'll finally see him again…” The beautiful woman looked into the distance, a trace of tenderness in her eyes.
Simultaneously, in various sects across the Southern Spirit Realm:
“The assessment's been moved up? Hahaha, He Yiming is finished!”
“Top ten on the Genius Ranking? That position is an insult to me. This time, I'm fully prepared, and I will take first place!”
“He Yiming, Nangong Li, I'll make you both realize that inside the academy, you may win due to the fair environment, but outside the academy, background and foundation are a cultivator's greatest strength!”
“All four of my disciples are geniuses. He Yiming, how can you compete with me?”
“The top ten on the Genius Ranking have always been dominated by our great families and powerful sects. When has a mere commoner ever taken first place and crushed us? This assessment coming early is perfect! In just ten days, He Yiming won't even be able to gather four disciples, hahaha!”
Like He Yiming, the other top ten graduates on the Genius Ranking were all fully preparing, taking their most elite disciples, and heading to Haotian Academy!
At the Yanhuang Sect in the Desolate Wilderness:
“He Yiming, are you serious?” Elder Wang Ping was slightly speechless.
“Yes!” He Yiming nodded confidently.
“Hahaha, now I'm in the Spiritual Vein Realm, I'm invincible!”
“I wonder what challenges await me!”
“Soon, everyone will know the new power I've created!”
“After a day of preparation, everything is ready! Whatever happens, I won't be afraid!”
Niu Roumian, Indomitable Bear Strong, Wang Lufei, and the National Server's First Ice Mage, after taking the medium-grade Ascension Pills refined by He Yiming, all broke through to the early Spiritual Vein Realm!
However, time was too tight, and their cultivation wasn't stable. They were all floating, their foundation weak.
Elder Wang Ping immediately noticed their unstable condition. He could tell they had just broken through and hadn't had time to solidify their cultivation.
Without a firm foundation, how could they compete?
“He Yiming is finished!” Elder Wang Ping sighed, but still remained professional.
As He Yiming led Niu Roumian and the others onto the giant bird, the players came to bid them farewell.
“Mian, I made these skewers all night. Take them with you!”
“Lufei, beat them all! Show them our strength!”
“Damn, I want to go too. Even if I can't go, it'd be nice to see the big shots in action!”
The players were sending them off, chattering and discussing excitedly.
“...” He Yiming, with a thought, communicated with the system and then issued an announcement.
“Ding!”
“Temporary new feature activated: Exclusive storyline live brast!”
“All players can go to the Martial Arts Hall to watch the full live brast of Haotian Academy's assessment!”
In the Martial Arts Hall, there was a stone tablet displaying information about the training rooms.
After He Yiming communicated with the system, he could use this stone tablet as a display screen to brast the entire Haotian Academy assessment live.
“What the hell, live brast the entire process?”
“Hurry, go watch!”
“Let's go!”
The players were in an uproar, rushing toward the Martial Arts Hall.
As expected, the live footage appeared on the stone tablet in real time.
Under Elder Wang Ping's control, the giant bird took off with a loud cry and soared into the sky, heading far away.
“Haotian Academy... Nangong Li...”
“I, He Yiming, have returned!”
He Yiming looked into the distance, whispering softly…
