“Third Senior Brother,” Duan Ling Tian asked doubtfully, “Why do the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation and the other heavyweight supreme-rank forces send their disciples and clan members to the Myriad Laws Academy?”
Before coming to the Myriad Laws Academy, Duan Ling Tian already knew that some heavyweight and ordinary supreme-rank forces enrolled their younger generation in the Myriad Laws Academy. Apart from that, although there were currently no known students from prime supreme-rank forces, there were a few rare precedents in the past. Moreover, who knew if there were indeed students from prime supreme-rank forces now who concealed their identity and background to join the academy? In the past, he had assumed that those who enrolled in the academy only joined the academy because their treatment in their respective sects was not very good. However, after joining the Myriad Laws Academy, he realized that he had been very wrong. None of the students from both heavyweight and ordinary supreme-rank forces were mediocre at all. In fact, they were all outstanding prodigies in their respective forces and had the potential to become Supreme Gods in the future.
For example, the five disciples from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation whom Duan Ling Tian killed were all extraordinary. As the Holy Son of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, Wang Yun Sheng was one of the top disciples in the congregation. As for Hong Li and the other three people, although they were slightly weaker than Wang Yun Sheng, they were still outstanding prodigies in their own rights. If two of them joined forces, it would be enough for them to fight Wang Yun Sheng for hundreds of rounds before being defeated. If three of them joined forces, they could certainly fight Wang Yun Sheng to a tie at least, and they even had a chance of winning. If the four of them joined forces, there was no doubt they could defeat and possibly even kill Wang Yun Sheng.
“Apart from those five from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation whom I killed, I heard that the other three disciples of the congregation in the academy aren’t simple at all. One of them is only second to the Holy Sons of the congregation. I also heard that those three are from a different faction from Wang Yun Sheng so they didn’t join him to target me,” Duan Ling Tian continued to say, revealing what he heard to Yang Yu Chen, “All in all, it seems like the students in the academy aren’t your average Joes. They’re all the best among the younger generation in their respective forces. Even the most average students here from ordinary supreme-rank forces are the best in their respective forces.”
After Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Yang Yu Chen smiled and said, “You just joined the academy not too long ago. I didn’t expect you to have already noticed this.”
When Yang Yu Chen first joined the Myriad Laws Academy, it took him quite a while before he noticed this. Hence, he was slightly surprised that Duan Ling Tian noticed it so quickly. However, he also knew that Duan Ling Tian’s conflict with the students from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation was a huge factor in his early discovery.
Yang Yu Chen nodded and said, “You’re right. The students in the academy from heavyweight supreme-rank forces are the cream of the crop in their respective forces. Even ifthey aren’t the most outstanding, they’re definitely much better than the average disciple. I found it strange as well when I first noticed this. Later, I learned from Second Senior Brother that the academy has something that the heavyweight supreme-rank forces want. In the past, the founder of our Myriad Laws Academy made a promise to those heavyweight supreme-rank forces. It’s a long story. Why don’t you come over and chat at my place?”
Instead of sending Duan Ling Tian back, Yang Yu Chen led Duan Ling Tian to his courtyard. A huge mansion stood in the courtyard with plenty of space outside.
When they walked in, there were a few attendants cleaning up the place.
Yang Yu Chen dismissed the attendants, and when there were only him and Duan Ling Tian left, he said, “The academy managed to obtain something back then, and not only the heavyweight supreme-rank forces contributed to it, but our Inner Palace faction contributed to it as well. It was also at that time that our Inner Palace faction obtained the Supreme Powerhouse Relic. Since the founder of our faction found the Supreme Powerhouse Relic on his own and obtained it without help, even if the others were jealous, they could not do anything about it. Moreover, our faction has never received special treatment or resources from the academy, and our members were treated like ordinary students or teachers. As such, no one could object to us keeping the Supreme Powerhouse Relic to ourselves. However, in the past, there were a few cases where a few outsiders were granted access to the Supreme Powerhouse Relic after paying a certain price.”
After a pause, Yang Yu Chen continued to say, “Back to the topic… What the academy obtained back then could not be considered a Supreme Powerhouse Relic. However, it’s an independent realm created by not just one, but a few supreme powerhouses. That independent realm serves as a training ground and contains many fortuitous encounters left by supreme powerhouses. Moreover, the independent realm is constantly changing.”
“Constantly changing?” Duan Ling Tian was puzzled.
Yang Yu Chen nodded. “That’s right. Before our academy opens that place, the independent realm will change. For example, the sceneries and ways to encounter fortuitous encounters will change every time the independent realm is open. Moreover, in addition to the existing fortuitous encounters, there’ll be new fortuitous encounters as well. In short, you can consider that place as a place where those from the dozen or so heavyweight supreme-rank forces benefit from…”
Realization on Duan Ling Tian, and his eyes lit up. “Then, this means that that place is similar to the Realm Battlefield?”
“That’s right,” Yang Yu Chen replied with a nod and a smile. He thought that Duan Ling Tian was indeed smart, being able to catch on so quickly. He continued to say, “Like the Realm Battlefield, that place is filled with fortuitous encounters that supreme powerhouses deliberately left behind. However, unlike the Realm Battlefield where everyone in the Realms of Gods can enter, one can only enter that place after one’s granted access by the academy. It also has its own set of restrictions. For example, that place is a training ground for the younger generation. As such, only those below the age of 10,000 can enter that place. There’s a limit to the number of people who can enter that place at a time. The limit is 100 people. Out of 100 places to enter that place, the academy holds 20 places. The remaining 80 places are distributed among the heavyweight supreme-rank forces.”
“That place is called the Trial of Gods. It’s said that after its creation, the supreme powerhouses made all top forces in the various Realms of Gods fight for it. At that time, our Myriad Laws Academy successfully seized the 100,000-year ownership of the Trial of Gods. There’s no doubt that the other heavyweight supreme-rank forces contributed to the success. As such, they would be given a chance to enter the Trial Ground every time it opens. However, since this chance was obtained a long time ago, as time passed, a few conditions were imposed. As such, many forces send their younger generation to the Myriad Laws Academy to become students. After becoming students, they’ll have to accumulate enough points before they’ll be qualified to enter the Trial of Gods. Among the eight students from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, only four of them have enough points to enter the Trial of Gods. However, among the four, three were killed by you.”
Yang Yu Chen smiled before he continued to say, “When the Trial of Gods opens again, I’m afraid that there won’t be too many people from the congregation entering it. It’s going to open soon, and it won’t be easy for them to obtain so many points in such a short time. It’s also for this reason that the congregation definitely won’t let you off after you killed Wang Yun Sheng and the others. They could’ve sent a rudimentary Supreme God to the academy to solve this matter, but they sent their Vice Leader instead. Based on this, you can see that they place a lot of importance on this matter.”
Duan Ling Tian learned a lot after listening to Yang Yu Chen. He was most surprised by the Trial of Gods. Before listening to Yang Yu Chen, he did not know such a place existed. It was a place created by several supreme powerhouses that was constantly renewed and contained many fortuitous encounters.
‘As expected of the top forces in the Realms of Gods… Even supreme powerhouses took the initiative to help them cultivate their younger generation…’ Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly.
Such a thing was not possible in the Pure Yang Sect. Only prime and heavyweight supreme-rank forces would be given such an opportunity. This was especially true for prime supreme-rank forces that had the support from a supreme powerhouse. It was only natural that these forces would seek benefits for their younger generation from their respective supreme powerhouse.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian asked curiously, “Third Senior Brother, have you entered the Trial of Gods?”
Yang Yu Chen nodded. “Of course. It’s not just me. Eldest Senior Sister and Second Senior Brother had also entered the Trial of Gods. When the Trial of Gods opens, you and Fourth Junior Sister will be able to enter as well. The Inner Palace faction is given a chance to enter every 10,000 years. If the chances weren’t used, they can be brought forward once. This means that if the chances weren’t used twice, there’ll be only two not three chances to enter the Trial of Gods when it opens again.”
