Yang Yu Chen, the Vice Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy, was once a talented student who broke a few records in the past. Before reaching the age of 3,000, he became an Emperor of Gods. He became an advanced Emperor of Gods before reaching 10,000 years old. When he was slightly over 10,000 years old, he became a rudimentary Supreme God, and when he was slightly over 2,000 years old, he became an intermediate Supreme God. Moreover, he had comprehended the Mastery Dao to the supreme stage within 10,000 years.

‘He comprehended the Mastery Dao?’ Duan Ling Tian looked at Yang Yu Chen again when he heard the hushed conversations in his surroundings. This was his first encounter with a powerhouse who comprehended the Mastery Dao.
‘If he comprehended the Mastery Dao, I’m afraid he might have already noticed the abnormality if he watched my recordings from Floating Image Pearls during the Seven Mansions Feast.’
During the Seven Mansions Feast, Duan Ling Tian had secretly used the Mastery Dao when he cast his law of space. The Mastery Dao was quite inconspicuous compared to the Sword Dao so it was rather difficult even for Emperors of Gods to sense it. Even ordinary Supreme Gods would have trouble detecting it through Floating Image Pearls unless they comprehended the Mastery Dao themselves.
At this time, the young disciples from the various heavyweight supreme-rank forces bowed and greeted Yang Yu Chen after receiving cues from their respective elders.
“Greetings, Vice Academy Master Yang!”
Following that, the high-ranking officials from the Pure Yang Sect greeted Yang Yu Chen as well.
“It seems like I arrived just in time,” Yang Yu Chen said with an amicable smile as he landed. He was tall and handsome.
Xu Fang, the representative from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, looked at Yang Yu Chen warily as he asked, “Vice Academy Master Yang, did you come to recruit Duan Ling Tian as well?”
The other representatives looked at Yang Yu Chen, waiting for his answer. After all, it was unprecedented for the Myriads Academy Law to recruit students. Students would have to enroll in the academy on their own if they wished to join the academy.
The Myriads Law Academy gave a high degree of freedom to its students. The students were free to come and go as they wanted. The academy’s responsibility was only to impart knowledge and assign tasks to its students. They also prevented knots from forming in their students’ hearts, which was known as the Devil’s Heart. Many who formed Devil’s Hearts would have their cultivation affected. As such, even if they were strong enough to survive their Heavenly Tribulations, they could die due to their Devil’s Hearts. For this reason, many students who had benefited from their time at the academy remained grateful and were always trying to repay the academy’s kindness. After all, ingratitude could also cause one to form a Devil’s Heart. However, those who were ungrateful but did not see the error of their ways naturally did not form the Devil’s Heart.
This was because it could be said that the Devil’s Heart was formed when one knowingly went against one’s conscience.
At this time, Yang Yu Chen glanced at Xu Fang and said with a faint smile, “Elder Xu, isn’t it obvious? Why would I come if not to invite Duan Ling Tian to join the Myriad Laws Academy?”
Xu Fang and the other representatives could not help but feel shocked although they had already suspected this.
The representative from the Scarlet Flame Palace said, “Vice Academy Master Yang, the Myriad Laws Academy has never personally recruited students, right? The academy also gives freedom to the student to come and go.”
The representative from the Scarlet Flame Palace was slightly hesitant when speaking. After all, Yang Yu Chen, the Vice Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Palace, was an intermediate Supreme God.
When Duan Ling Tian discovered Yang Yu Chen was an intermediate Supreme God, he realized that Yang Yu Chen was the first intermediate Supreme God he had met after Xia Jie, Ke’er’s third uncle. He had met Xia Jie when he was still in the mundane realm. He only found out that Ke’er and Xia Jie were from the Xia clan, a prime supreme-force rank, in the Divine Offering Land after he came to the Profound Energy Land. As the Third Master of the Xia clan, he thought Xie Jia was likely an intermediate Supreme God.
“The Myriad Laws Academy’s philosophy did not change,” Yang Yu Chen replied with a smile, “I came on my own accord and not on the academy’s behalf.”
The representatives from the other heavyweight supreme-rank forces were puzzled and shocked. They did not feel relieved at all. It made no difference if Yang Yu Chen was here on the academy’s behalf or not. The main point was Yang Yu Chen was here to recruit Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, everyone knew that the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy treated Yang Yu Chen as his successor.
Yang Yu Chen’s smile widened as he turned to Duan Ling Tian and said, “Duan Ling Tian. I’m Yang Yu Chen, the Vice Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy. I’m here today not on behalf of the academy, but for myself. Personally, I think you’re very suitable to join the academy. The academy gives a high degree of freedom to its students. Your identity and reputation don’t matter in the academy. As long as you’re capable and outstanding, you’ll be able to obtain everything you want. In fact, some of the young disciples from the various heavyweight supreme-rank forces here are students of our academy. Despite coming from a heavyweight supreme-rank force, they’re treated the same as the other students. They don’t receive any special privileges and treatments just because of their backgrounds. It’s inconvenient for me to reveal some things, but you should ask yourself why these heavyweight supreme-rank forces send their young disciples to our academy. Moreover, the young disciples they sent to our academy are just as talented as you or even more talented than you.”
Apart from Ye Chen Feng, Duan Ling Tian and the others from the Pure Yang Sect were surprised.
Ye Chen Feng did not say anything to Duan Ling Tian about the Myriad Laws Academy because he did not expect someone from the academy to show up. Moreover, if Duan Ling Tian wanted to join the Myriad Laws Academy, he could still do so after joining a heavyweight supreme-rank force. Under normal circumstances, supreme-rank forces, not just heavyweight supreme-rank forces, did not have any objections about their young disciples enrolling in the Myriad Laws Academy.
Not only was Ye Chen Feng surprised that someone from the Myriad Laws Academy came, but he was even more surprised that the person who came was Yang Yu Chen, the most outstanding person in the Myriad Laws Academy in the past 100,000 years.
Apart from that, Ye Chen Feng had also heard rumors that Yang Yu Chen came from a mundane realm like him and Duan Ling Tian.
At the same time, Xu Fang, the representative from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, said to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, “Duan Ling Tian, you can join the Myriad Laws Academy as well after joining our Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation. We won’t stop you from joining the academy if that’s your wish. My offer to you from earlier still stands as well.”
Xu Fang did not hesitate to say that Duan Ling Tian would still receive the same benefits he promised earlier even if Duan Ling Tian joined the Myriad Laws Academy after joining the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation.
The other representatives sent similar Voice Transmissions to Duan Ling Tian as well.
Duan Ling Tian hesitated. He looked at Yang Yu Chen, the intermediate Supreme God, who did not offer him any benefits. All Yang Yu Chen said was that the treatment and privileges he received would be based on his capabilities. Although he felt that Yang Yu Chen was a reliable person, how could he agree to Yang Yu Chen? It was undoubtedly better for him to join another heavyweight supreme-rank force first, and if he wanted to, he could then enroll in the Myriad Laws Academy.
Yang Yu Chen seemed to be able to read Duan Ling Tian’s thoughts as he shook his head and said, “To be honest, I can’t offer you the things they offered you. I came on my own accord, and I’m very poor.”
