Chapter 172: This Three Purities Scum is Really Accurate in Judging People (4300 words)
On Dragon Head Peak.
Today is an unprecedented lively day.
The first seats of the thirty-six veins, elders, true transmissions, inner disciples...
And even the outer disciples.
There are tens of thousands of people.
At this moment, they are all gathered on a huge cloud platform.
They look up at the sect master, Zhuo Canglang, who is located at the highest point.
Today, he is not wearing the tattered Daoist robe, but instead took out the treasured brocade robe that he has kept for many years. He looks radiant, full of energy, and even the two crows on his shoulders are particularly spirited.
"Children, today is the day when the Ancient Saint Academy is about to open!"
"I know, you have been waiting for this day... for a long time..."
"Some have been looking forward to this day since they entered the sect, and some have been waiting for it for several years..." Zhuo Canglang's voice pauses slightly, with a deep and distant look in his eyes. "As for me, I have been waiting for this day for a full eight hundred years!"
Eight hundred years ago.
It was during the difficult period when the Three Purities Immortal Gate encountered a great disaster.
Facing the danger of the sect being destroyed.
Zhuo Canglang, Luo Binglan, Dugu Qingqian... they were all the geniuses of the Three Purities who entered the Ancient Saint Academy eight hundred years ago.
The burden they carried far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.
But they carried it through.
Not only did they stabilize the Three Purities Immortal Gate in the midst of turmoil.
They also guarded this flickering flame.
Continuously developing and cultivating for hundreds of years, until today!
And now.
It's another new eight hundred years.
Saying that, his gaze shifts slightly and falls on the hundreds of disciples of the Three Purities Immortal Gate in the front of the crowd.
His eyes are filled with satisfaction and expectation.
"This time, you will represent the younger generation of the Three Purities Immortal Gate and compete with all the geniuses from the thirty-six Grotto-Heavens and seventy-two Blessed Lands of the South State!"
"I know that this is not fair for the Three Purities and all of you in the present time!"
"So, I don't ask for any specific achievements from you!"
"My only requirement is to obtain as many opportunities as possible, and then... come back alive without missing a single one!"
"We, the disciples of the Three Purities, have never been weaker than others!"
"We may lose once, twice, or even three times, but we will never lose our entire lives!"
"Do you understand what I mean?"
The Ancient Saint Academy is located in the fourth level of the void world.
It is rich in opportunities.
Of course, it is also accompanied by various crises.
Although these crises have been mostly resolved by the major Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands of the South State over countless years.
But... there are always exceptions.
Moreover, although there is benign competition among the major Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands, swords and spells have no eyes.
When the competition becomes intense.
Casualties are inevitable.
Almost every time the Ancient Saint Academy opens, there are losses.
For the powerful Immortal Gate with a strong foundation.
Those who survive are the elites among the elites.
But for the Three Purities Immortal Gate, everyone present is an extremely precious flame, each with the potential to stand out in the future.
So Zhuo Canglang's words are spoken with utmost seriousness.
The Three Purities disciples at the forefront of the crowd also hear the implied meaning in Zhuo Canglang's words.
Fight if you can.
Retreat if you can't.
For the geniuses who aspire to show their skills among them, this is somewhat difficult to accept.
But when they meet Zhuo Canglang's serious gaze.
They still respond in unison, "We will remember the sect master's teachings!"
Zhuo Canglang nods in satisfaction.
Then he waves his hand and says, "Set off!"
As mentioned earlier.
The Ancient Saint Academy is located in the fourth level of the void, surpassing the small worlds of the Grotto-Heavens.
That place.
Even the strong at the Saint Manifestation stage dare not approach easily.
There is a risk of falling.
Not to mention this group of young cultivators.
So in order to go to the Ancient Saint Academy, you need to rely on something—the Purgatory Ark!
This item is the Saint Weapon of the Jade Balance Grotto-Heaven.
Extremely precious.
It has the ability to traverse the void and avoid most of the chaotic dangers in the void.
But it is said to be just a replica.
The true Purgatory Ark's power is already immeasurable.
Every time the Ancient Saint Academy opens, the Immortal Alliance will borrow the Purgatory Ark from the Jade Balance Grotto-Heaven.
As an exchange.
The Jade Balance Grotto-Heaven can also obtain a lot of spots.
This year is no exception.
The Purgatory Ark is currently hovering in the void above Vermilion Bird City.
...
With Zhuo Canglang's command.
The teleportation array of the Three Purities Immortal Gate is activated.
Countless mottled void energy surges out of the teleportation array, engulfing all 120 disciples of the Three Purities who are participating in this Ancient Saint Academy.
Wang Xiu looks at the familiar and dazzling changes in the void light.
A sense of anticipation gradually emerges in his heart.
This trip.
I wonder what kind of scenery I will see!
...
Vermilion Bird City is even more lively than when Wang Xiu last came.
The streets are packed with people.
There are cultivators everywhere.
Shoulder to shoulder.
Especially the main road leading to the center of the city, it is so crowded that it is impassable.
The Ancient Saint Academy is opening.
It is not only the matter of the various Grotto-Heaven Blessed Lands, but also a grand event for the entire South State.
On this day.
It is as if all the cultivators in the entire South State have gathered here.
Even on the wasteland outside the city.
Temporary roads have been built, with various merchants and peddlers on both sides.
On the city walls, on the high buildings on both sides, and on the tops of the large red lanterns hanging by the roadside, they are all crowded with people.
If it weren't for the rules in Vermilion Bird City.
Prohibiting cultivators from flying around at will.
The sky would have been completely filled, without even a trace of daylight leaking through.
The sound of noise fills the ears.
The various businesses in Vermilion Bird City naturally won't miss this once-in-eight-hundred-years opportunity.
They are selling their goods almost frantically.
The boasting and bragging are far more exaggerated and outrageous than what Wang Xiu heard last time he came.
...
"Come and take a look! Apex Level Dragon Blood Vine, the essence of the sun, a powerful Yang-enhancing divine medicine... Those who have tried it all say it's good! Just take a small piece every day, and it guarantees that you'll be full of vitality, able to perform forty-nine times in one night without any problems... Both me and my neighbor Wang brother are using it!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone bragging nearby, congratulations to the host for gaining +25 mana!]
...
"Joyous Union Sect's Yin-Yang Secret Technique, Poisonous Dragon Drill, cunning and powerful, unexpected and fatal, the best choice for killing and betraying teammates when you're away from home! Only 100 spirit stones, can't be cheated, can't be fooled!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone bragging nearby, congratulations to the host for gaining +23 mana!]
...
"The latest invention from the Happy Pavilion, the Double-Headed Dragon Thunder Strike Rod, powerful and with spikes on the surface, attacks from both ends, and emits a slight electric current when activated. It is the strongest Law Treasure against many female cultivators! Only 998, and she won't be able to breathe from pleasure!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone bragging nearby, congratulations to the host for gaining +23 mana!]
...
Just walking from outside the city to the center of the city.
Wang Xiu's cultivation level has once again risen, advancing by a bit.
There's no way.
There are too many braggarts.
Crowded together.
I can't stop at all.
To be honest, if it weren't for the imminent opening of the Ancient Saint Academy, Wang Xiu would have wanted to stay here for three days and three nights.
The feeling is so enjoyable!
...
In the center of Vermilion Bird City, there is a city wall.
One wall separates Vermilion Bird City into two halves, the inner and outer city.
The outer city is overcrowded.
The inner city, however, is much more spacious.
A checkpoint is set at the city gate.
"The Saint Academy Waist Token!"
Behind the table, an old man at the Nascent Soul stage didn't even lift his head and said so.
The so-called Saint Academy Waist Token.
It is actually the qualification for the Saint Academy.
Most of the major Immortal Gates will issue them before departure.
Wang Xiu and the others handed over their waist tokens.
The old man at the Nascent Soul stage took the waist tokens, looked at the information on them, and suddenly raised his head, looking at Wang Xiu and the others, "Three Purities Immortal Gate?"
His voice wasn't loud.
But it wasn't small either.
The people around heard his words, as if a switch had been turned on, they all looked over and scrutinized Wang Xiu and his group.
Wang Xiu keenly felt that these gazes didn't hold much goodwill.
"Are you from Three Purities Immortal Gate?"
"One, two, three... Oh my god, they actually have 120 spots!"
"If it were the peak period of Three Purities Immortal Gate, we wouldn't say anything about these spots... But now, Three Purities is just a trailing existence, why do they get so many spots?"
"It is said that the Immortal Alliance originally prepared 80 spots for Three Purities Immortal Gate, and the rest... they forcefully took them!"
"80 spots turned into 120? Are they bandits or what?"
"My Fuyao Grotto-Heaven also had two spots taken... Originally, my brother was also qualified to enter the Ancient Saint Academy, but it's all ruined now! This is a once-in-eight-hundred-year opportunity!"
"My Hanhai Grotto-Heaven is the same!"
..."
Listening to the discussions around him.
Li Zuoyue and the others looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I wonder why our Three Purities Immortal Gate suddenly got so many spots... So it's because of this?" Li Zuoyue said helplessly.
Xiang Tiange snorted, "The Sect Master is also for the revival of our Three Purities, but these people... It seems that after eight hundred years, they have forgotten how our Three Purities predecessors sacrificed themselves! Without our Three Purities, could they have such a comfortable life today?"
Qin Guangling said, "Be careful!"
Huang Yunchong touched the Yin-Yang gourd behind his back, as if he was ready to take action at any time.
Ji Zidian snorted, "If we're going to fight, let's fight. Are we afraid of them? Hey! Senior Brother, what are you doing~"
She was halfway through her harsh words.
But she felt a pain on her head, it turned out that Wang Xiu had tapped her.
She immediately pouted in grievance.
Wang Xiu didn't respond to her, but walked to the Nascent Soul stage old man in charge of registration, and smiled as he cupped his hands, "Senior, I wonder if there is any problem with our waist tokens?"
The Nascent Soul stage old man glanced at him and shook his head, "There is no problem, but..."
Wang Xiu said, "Since there is no problem, then we juniors will go in first, so as not to delay the fellow cultivators who come later! Thank you, senior!"
As he spoke.
Without waiting for the old man to say anything.
He directly swept his big hand and took back all the Saint Academy waist tokens that had just been handed over.
Then, with Xiang Tiange, Ji Zidian, and the others, he walked towards the inner city.
The guards responsible for the inner city gate frowned and glanced at the old man, seemingly seeking instructions.
The old man stared at Wang Xiu's figure for a while.
Then he moved his gaze away and shook his head imperceptibly.
The guards understood and opened the city gate to let them pass!
...
After passing through the city gate.
The atmosphere became more tense.
There were already thousands of cultivators in the inner city.
When they saw the people from Three Purities Immortal Gate approaching.
They all unconsciously gathered together, gradually forming a semicircle, blocking the path of the Three Purities group.
These people.
They come from various Grotto-Heaven Blessed Lands.
They were carefully selected.
They are all the most outstanding geniuses in the entire South State.
At this moment, they joined forces without prior arrangement, exerting pressure. Even if they didn't say a word, just by staring at the Three Purities group, the invisible pressure was still terrifying.
Even Xiang Tiange, who was always confident, clenched his fist slightly.
He was prepared to take off his clothes and fight at any moment.
Wang Xiu stood at the front of the team.
Looking at the encircling crowd, there was no trace of fear on his face, but rather a faint smile.
He kept walking forward.
His calm and composed demeanor made people unable to help but take notice.
"Who is that person?"
"I've never seen him before!"
"I do recognize the two people behind him, Xiang Tiange, the Pure Yang Warlord, and Li Zuoyue, the Heavenly Sword Lord. They are both well-known figures on the Gold Core List!"
"Such characters, yet they seem to be following that young man?"
"Hiss..."
The distance between the two groups of people was getting closer and closer.
The atmosphere became increasingly silent.
Even the slightest whisper disappeared.
Everyone's heartbeat began to accelerate.
It seemed as if they were nervous for the imminent conflict.
Although there would be no suspense in the outcome.
But the fact that such a confrontation erupted before the Ancient Saint Academy even opened was enough to make one's blood boil.
Snap!
Wang Xiu stopped in his tracks.
A few feet in front of him.
Stood a young man in white.
His expression was tense, a sword hung at his waist, and one hand gripped the hilt as if he was ready to draw it at any moment.
And behind him.
The people from the Three Purities Immortal Gate were also tense.
They were prepared for battle.
Just when everyone thought that a dispute was about to break out.
Wang Xiu suddenly showed a warm smile and took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with the young man in white: "I see that you have an imposing manner and a halo between your eyebrows. You must be a person with great luck... It seems that you are an extraordinary talent. I wonder if I have the honor to get to know you?"
The young man in white was stunned: "Huh?"
Wang Xiu stepped forward again, his face full of sincerity: "May I ask for your name, sir?"
The young man in white was a little confused and instinctively responded, "Tai Xu Grotto-Heaven, Shen Taixu!"
Wang Xiu suddenly realized and said earnestly, "So you are Shen Taixu, the nineteenth-ranked Gold Core on the list. I am Wang Xiu from the Three Purities Immortal Gate, Divination Lineage. I have long admired your name! I have heard that Shen Taixu is a young hero, full of vitality, like a young dragon with an indomitable spirit. Today, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved!"
When Shen Taixu heard Wang Xiu's words, his fair face turned red, and he scratched the back of his head with a silly smile, "Where, where, you flatter me, hahaha!"
Everyone: "..."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling face.
Wang Xiu greeted him so kindly.
It made him unable to vent the harsh words he had prepared.
On the side.
A woman in purple looked at Shen Taixu disdainfully.
"Is that all Shen Taixu is capable of?"
"He's just being fooled by this charlatan from the Three Purities Immortal Gate, and he's lost his way!"
The people from the Three Purities Immortal Gate, Divination Lineage!
Can we trust what they say?
Is any of it true?
When Shen Taixu heard this, he turned around angrily, drew his sword, and pointed it at the woman in purple, "What do you mean?"
The woman in purple seemed unafraid, snorted coldly, and was about to say something.
Just then.
Wang Xiu suddenly turned his gaze to her, with a deep admiration in his eyes, "This young lady seems to be a Celestial Immortal, as cold as autumn frost, like a celestial descending to the mortal world, and as clear as a clear wave, reflecting the dreams of the human soul... If I'm not mistaken, you should be the forty-sixth-ranked Purple Kite Fairy on the Hundred Flowers List, right?"
Purple Kite was stunned for a while.
She looked at Wang Xiu's perfect face.
Her ears echoed with his praise.
She felt a sense of sweetness in her heart.
She couldn't help but want to smile.
But reason told her that she couldn't, she absolutely couldn't believe this charlatan's words.
She took a deep breath and said, "Oh, this junior brother is so young, yet he has such accurate judgment of people! Kekeke~"
Everyone: "..."
Make up for the missing chapter from last night.
