Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

"Can’t we just use the back door? For a place like this, it would be worth it even if we had to spend some Super Divine Level Battle Souls to get in! After all, Cultivation in the True Void Divine Realm has its limitations."

"Impossible. Use the back door? The new Mansion Master of War Dragon Academy is rumored to have a shocking background. She’s as elusive as a Divine Dragon, a peerless Goddess who hates that kind of thing the most."

"Sigh. If that’s the case, what a shame."

...

A series of discussions rippled through the crowd.

Hearing these conversations, Ye Tianling couldn’t help but feel a little strange.

’I wonder if the Dragon Race Decree will be enough to get me through this time. If not, I’ll just have to show them my Talent. Fortunately, it seems my mother wanted me to do that anyway.’

As Ye Tianling thought about it, he calmed down.

"In that case, for this trip to the Taiyin Ancient Tomb, Senior Brother Wannian will surely be among the first group from our War Dragon Academy to enter."

Just then, Lin Yuyan’s voice interrupted Ye Tianling’s thoughts.

Lin Yuyan’s eyes sparkled. When she looked at Jiang Wannian, the affection in her gaze was completely undisguised.

Jiang Wannian seemed to be thoroughly enjoying this treatment from Lin Yuyan.

He also seemed to have a good impression of Lin Yuyan, but he remained somewhat reserved, showing no intention of pursuing a deeper relationship.

"That’s hard to say. The requirements for comprehension and physique are very high for the first group of entrants. Besides, within War Dragon Academy, I can only be considered among the top, but not the absolute best."

Jiang Wannian didn’t get carried away by the praise, speaking very frankly.

"Senior Brother Wannian, if even you don’t qualify, then who under the Ancestral Realm in War Dragon Academy possibly could? You’re excellent in every way, you’re just too low-key and modest sometimes. If anyone else had your abilities, they would have been world-famous by now."

Lin Yuyan couldn’t help but praise him.

"Fame isn’t actually that useful. On the contrary, it can attract trouble. The key is to focus on Cultivation. You must remember, there’s always someone better out there..."

Jiang Wannian was very pragmatic, and his words carried a hint of guidance.

Unfortunately, Lin Yuyan clearly wasn’t listening.

"Did you see that? Tell me, how can that Tianshu possibly compare to such a perfect gentleman? Profounder Wannian is so talented, yet so down-to-earth. That Tianshu has some Talent, but he’s already arrogant and conceited. How far can someone like that go?"

Yuan Haoning’s voice transmission once again echoed in Ye Tianling’s ears.

Ye Tianling’s heart stirred, but he didn’t refute her.

In this world, some races revere nature, while others advocate for governing by non-action.

Ye Tianling had once encountered the entire Celestial Spirit Race, and nearly all of them followed this method of Cultivation.

Jiang Wannian’s demeanor fit this mold in every way.

As for Yuan Haoning’s words, Ye Tianling remained noncommittal, though he didn’t agree with them.

He had his own way of Cultivation.

Unrestrained and Indulgent, following his heart’s desires, invincible and supreme.

This was a domineering way of Cultivation, a way of indulgence.

"Yes, I saw. He does have some charm and charisma. But that’s all. Once I’ve cultivated for a while, surpassing him is only a matter of time."

Ye Tianling replied coolly via voice transmission.

"You were able to manifest Battle Power Dao Patterns, so your Talent isn’t bad. But the gap between you and him is just too vast. He has already stepped into the Sword Tribulation Sixth Refining Realm, while you’re only at Sword Void Seven Transformation... That’s a gap of nearly nine Small Realms! And there’s a Great Realm barrier between them. It’s difficult, difficult, difficult."

Yuan Haoning didn’t mean to discourage Ye Tianling; she was simply stating the facts.

She repeated the word "difficult" three times to express the sheer gap between them.

Ye Tianling’s Soul Talent allowed him to sense some of her emotional fluctuations, so he wasn’t actually angry about it.

After all, Yuan Haoning had no idea what kind of Talent he truly possessed.

From her perspective, it wasn’t strange that she would think this way.

After all, for most people, a prodigy at the Sword Void Seven Transformation Realm daring to speak of surpassing someone at the Sword Tribulation Sixth Refining Realm? That in itself was a sign of being overly ambitious and unrealistic.

"Soon, you’ll see."

Ye Tianling didn’t say much more, just giving a simple reply.

"I hope so. I also hope that the person I follow can be a bit more outstanding. That way, even as a servant, I’ll have some hope of getting my revenge."

Yuan Haoning sighed softly.

At the same time, she stopped looking at Jiang Wannian.

She seemed to know that she would never have any connection with a peerless prodigy like him in her entire life.

...

Ye Tianling and Yuan Haoning sat quietly in their seats.

The Flying Ship had already taken off.

Lin Yuyan and Jiang Wannian were chatting from time to time; she wasn’t even sitting in her own seat.

Jiang Wannian, for his part, wasn’t impatient. The two stood very close, almost leaning against each other.

Lin Yuyan would occasionally ask about difficult problems in her Cultivation, and Jiang Wannian would always answer her very attentively.

The Flying Ship traveled through the Void at an incredible speed.

A series of sonic boom-like sounds created waves of distorted airflow in the Void.

Inside the Flying Ship, streams of Spiritual Energy Aura flowed out, neutralizing the discomfort everyone felt from the spatial pressure.

It took more than two hours to cross a single Ancient City.

And the journey from Wulei Ancient City to the War Dragon Academy in Qianyang Prefecture would take nearly four hours.

During the four-hour journey, Lin Yuyan spent more than three of them talking enthusiastically with Jiang Wannian.

"BZZZZ—"

In the Void, the astral winds trembled, and a Power of Destruction pierced through space, causing the Flying Ship to shake violently.

Inside the Flying Ship, looks of horror appeared on everyone’s faces.

"There’s a pack of Liger Beasts. Just be on alert; there’s no need to panic."

A mechanical voice echoed through the Flying Ship, causing the Cultivators’ hearts to sink slightly.

Then, a figure of light condensed inside the Flying Ship, taking the form of a woman in a white gauze dress.

A pair of transparent, feathery wings of light manifested on her back. The moment the wings flapped, her figure disappeared.

Ye Tianling immediately activated his Soul Talent.

In that instant, Ye Tianling sensed that after the woman appeared outside, the moment her wings of light flapped, her figure moved like an Instant Teleportation, splitting into countless afterimages.

"SWISH SWISH SWISH—"

Terrifying explosions immediately rippled through the Void, followed by waves of destructive aura sweeping in all directions.

Large numbers of Liger Beasts were instantly turned into clouds of blood mist that spread everywhere.

"SWOOSH—"

After the Liger Beasts were dead, the woman with the pair of transparent, feathery wings of light pointed a finger.

A white Light of Destruction suddenly shot forward.

In the distance, a white chasm was carved through the Void, instantly tearing its way far into the distance.

"PSCHT—"

Far away, a black figure exploded directly, turning into a mist of blood.
