A formation had been established in this universe. No living beings could enter without authorization. Numerous passages had
been opened within this formation, each guarded by Dieux Academy disciples. Only those who presented an invitation card and
passed the inspection were allowed to enter.
“Goodness, there are so many living beings out there,” King Marciais said as he gazed at the multitude of powerhouses in the
surrounding area. These were just a portion of the living beings participating in the assessment.
James smiled and explained, ‘The Dieux Academy is one of the ten major forces in the Central Plane, and even the current
Master of the Elysium Hall once cultivated here. The academy recruits disciples publicly at the conference of countless planes.
This attracts countless living beings from all over to participate. Even powerhouses from some great families, sects, and forces in
the Central Plane send their disciples here to cultivate.”
Gaius glanced around, observing the vast number of living beings. While most were not exceptionally powerful, the majority were
at the Chaos Rank, with only a few having reached the Sovereign Rank.
Sensing the situation, he said, “I wonder if the five of us can secure a good position since we are at the early stage of the
Sovereign Third Rank.”
“It’s going to be tough.” James shook his head.
While the Dieux Academy was offering substantial rewards, these meant less to top-tier forces. However, claiming the top
position in the assessment was more appealing.
Achieving the top position would bring fame and the privilege of freely accessing the academy’s library chamber for cultivation.
The Dieux Academy nurtured numerous powerhouses, all of whom had created signature martial art skills stored in the
academy. Accessing the academy’s library chamber was the aspiration of countless powerhouses.
James and the others queued up, chatting among themselves. When James mentioned the academy’s library chamber, King
Marciais asked, “Forty-nine, what is the most incredible signature martial art skill in the Dieux Academy?”
James pondered for a moment and replied, ‘There isn’t a single most incredible, but as far as I know, the top level of the
academy’s library chamber houses numerous remarkable secret arts. These secret arts are the top-tier ones that can help us to
the late stage of the Great Celestial Rank, and some can even lead us to the Martial Celestial Rank.”
“You seem to know a lot,” a voice sounded from behind at that moment. James and the others turned to see a handsome man
who had approached them in an instant.
The man clasped his hands and introduced himself, “I come from a ninth-level plane, and my name is Aurelius Hollis. May I know
your name, sir? It seems you have a good understanding of Dieux Academy.”
James cast a quick glance and easily discerned Aurelius’ cultivation realm. He was at the late stage of the Sovereign Sixth Rank,
just one step away from the Petit Celestial Rank.
James calmly responded, “I am Forty-nine, from a relatively obscure small plane. I gained some knowledge about Dieux
Academy by reading a few books before coming.”
A harsh voice echoed at that moment, “Aurelius Hollis, you bastard!”
As the voice approached, a woman in a red dress appeared, and her red whip descended the moment she arrived.
James and the others dodged quickly.
Boom!
The space instantly ruptured as the whip struck, leaving King Marciais and the others in awe.
This was the core area of the Central Plane, and the spatial stability was exceptionally high. Even a Petit Celestial Rank would
not be able to cause such a formidable crack in the void with a single strike.
Who was this woman?
