Zuo Dao never expected that Snow Red Swallow would have such a fiery temper. Watching Jiang Yuqi, who had just fought her with such enthusiasm, now cowering like a chicken in front of her, he realized that shaking his head would be a death wish.
Although Jiang Yuqi and Snow Red Swallow were in a training session where one was instructing and the other listening, they were secretly plotting something else.
"This kid is going to rebel! I just can't understand why someone with his level of strength would come to Supreme Academy. Why hasn't Supreme Academy received any information about him?" Jiang Yuqi found it quite strange. Although Supreme Academy had been hidden for a long time, its intelligence network had not disappeared; it was still operational.
"You know those people only care about their own interests, and this kid is extremely low-key," Snow Red Swallow remarked, suddenly feeling as if she might have said something wrong about being low-key.
"Low-key!" Jiang Yuqi transmitted. "Do you think someone capable of causing chaos, tormenting gods, and battling the void could possibly be low-key?"
"What do you mean?" Snow Red Swallow asked pointedly. "Are you suggesting it's someone from above?"
"Let's not dwell on that; anyway, we have no chance with this kid. But there are others, right?" Jiang Yuqi shifted her focus to other individuals.
"Are you talking about those three spots?" Snow Red Swallow asked cautiously.
"Yes," Jiang Yuqi replied without hesitation, revealing her thoughts. "With his strength, would he even look at ordinary people? Plus, I've noticed those two Female Cultivators around him before; their strength is quite impressive as well, ranking within the top thousand at Supreme Academy."
"I noticed that too! Those two girls are truly exceptional materials," Snow Red Swallow said, suddenly changing her tone. "But don't you dare compete with me for those girls; otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"I wouldn't dare."
Zuo Dao was unaware that the fate of the women around him had already changed during this time. However, he was deeply impressed by Snow Red Swallow's fierce demeanor. Thankfully, his Xi Shi was gentle and lovely!
"Hey, what are you thinking about so lewdly? Smiling like that!" Hearing Jiang Yuqi's teasing tone finally brought an end to the conversation.
"You're not like someone at all!" Zuo Dao provocatively sized up Jiang Yuqi with a challenging gaze.
Jiang Yuqi felt a chill run down his spine under Zuo Dao's scrutiny. Suddenly, he remembered that Zuo Dao was the only witness when he had just been reprimanded. In that instant, he even entertained thoughts of silencing him.
Oh, my great image! He lamented inwardly.
At that moment, Snow Red Swallow had already regained her lady-like demeanor and walked up to Zuo Dao, patting him on the shoulder.
"You did well, being able to fight so fiercely against that deadbeat. Clearly, he's useless. I have high hopes for you. So, how about it? Are you interested in dating me, big sister?"
With that one sentence, both Zuo Dao and Jiang Yuqi stumbled back, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
"Red Swallow! You can't do this! How am I supposed to live like this?"
Listening to Jiang Yuqi's tearful lament and watching the lively pair before him, Zuo Dao couldn't help but straighten his expression.
"Thank you, Sister Yan. It's just that I'm still young; everything should focus on my studies. Yes, that's right." He added a firm tone at the end.
The three of them exchanged hearty laughter.
As the formation was dispelled, the results finally emerged. In the midst of everyone's complex gazes, Zuo Dao appeared before them in a tattered state.
The three women quickly flew forward, asking if he was injured or if anything was wrong. They couldn't help but worry; when had they ever seen Zuo Dao in such a disheveled state?
Looking at the three beautiful women before him, Zuo Dao felt a sense of pride and satisfaction rising within.
Seeing this scene, the Wolf Support team shouted in disbelief, lamenting that three flowers were blooming on a pile of cow dung, which made them feel the darker side of the world.
"What are you yelling about? If you have the guts, come challenge the king yourself! It's not just a few women; even a whole bunch would be fighting over you," Jiang Yuqi appeared in the square, having changed into a new outfit.
"What?"
"This is impossible!"
"There must be something shady going on!"
No one present believed that Zuo Dao could actually pass the first round of the assessment. These cultivators, who usually considered themselves talented, were all feeling uneasy.
What kind of realm was Zuo Dao in? As merely a Concentration Cultivator, how could he achieve his goal in the hands of two great experts? It seemed completely impossible.
Some with ulterior motives couldn't help but think of another possibility: perhaps these two examiners weren't as strong as they had imagined!
Zuo Dao paid no mind to these people and simply gestured for the Three Women to join him.
"Daozi, did you really pass?" Feng Miaomiao still found it hard to believe; everything felt too surreal.
"If I hadn't passed, the examiners wouldn't be acting like this," Huang Xishi also hadn't expected Zuo Dao to actually succeed.
Among the Three Women, only Tai Shu Yun held an unwavering faith in Zuo Dao. In her eyes, Zuo Dao was a person capable of anything, a miracle worker.
"The hearts of men, Young Master Zuo can certainly pass this test; nothing can defeat him."
Upon hearing Tai Shu Yun's words, the other two women couldn't help but feel a bit ashamed. Even Tai Shu Yun, who they regarded as an outsider, had such confidence in Zuo Dao, while they themselves felt inferior.
The four of them walked to the other side of the square, ignoring the gazes of the crowd and engaging in conversation as if no one else were around.
The assessment continued, and this time Jiang Yuqi seemed to be particularly fierce. The sudden surge of Robbery Realm energy left the participating Cultivators in despair. Moreover, Snow Red Swallow's enhancements made these Cultivators feel utterly hopeless.
The cries of anguish rose and fell in the arena, causing the Three Women to pale slightly. They all thought to themselves how fortunate they were to have Zuo Dao around; otherwise, they would have been among those suffering.
"Don't think like that; these Cultivators are far behind you," Zuo Dao said, noticing the expressions on the Three Women's faces. He didn't want them to harbor any negative thoughts, so he began to offer encouragement.
"Tai Shu Yun, once your Lotus Fire is unleashed, you essentially enter an invincible Realm. Anyone trying to break through your defenses will pay a heavy price, including those two Examiners," Zuo Dao began to provide individual assessments.
"Xi Shi and Feng Meow Meow, your strength also lies in your flames. Although they may not be as powerful as Tai Shu Yun's Lotus Fire, with what I've taught you, passing this stage shouldn't be too difficult."
Upon hearing this, the Three Women felt reassured. Although their strength was commendable, their lack of combat experience was indeed a shortcoming. Despite Zuo Dao's few words, he had already illuminated their path forward.
The strongest aspect could also be their weakest; their own flames were not yet powerful enough. How to use them effectively in battle would be crucial for their future growth.
At that moment, the Three Women absorbed Zuo Dao's words with newfound understanding and quietly closed their eyes to reflect. In an instant, Zuo Dao became a solitary figure once again, taking on the role of protector.
The battle in the arena was not intense; it was more of a one-sided fight, which allowed Jiang Yuqi to regain a bit of confidence. If more people like Zuo Dao appeared, he would have been driven to despair.
One opponent he could understand was the Spirit of the Bell Land, who was favored in every way, and he accepted that. But if two or three more showed up, he would definitely curse in anger.
Eventually, the results of the assessment came out, and only about a hundred people managed to reach the destination. The main reason was that Jiang Yuqi had performed exceptionally well; originally, at least half of the participants should have passed, but he had reduced that number to just a hundred.
Although this approach was somewhat excessive, he didn’t care at all. Among the remaining hundred, he had discovered more than ten excellent prospects, and for that alone, he felt satisfied.
He knew that in previous selections, there were hardly any cultivators who passed the first round with outstanding performance—now he had obtained several times more talents. He was particularly magnanimous towards those cultivators who had failed.
“Failure is not important; you still have opportunities. As long as you continue to work hard, the doors of Supreme Academy will remain open for you.” Looking at the dejected cultivators before him, Jiang Yuqi offered rare words of comfort.
“You don’t need to worry about missing out on opportunities. Since we at Supreme Academy are reopening our doors, it means that such assessments will continue. Perhaps next year you will be able to enroll.”
The crowd, who initially thought they had no hope, felt invigorated upon hearing Jiang Yuqi's words. It seemed that Supreme Academy would continue to recruit students—a piece of good news they had to take back with them while striving to improve their own abilities at all costs.
With the first round of assessments concluded, the entire square suddenly felt extremely spacious; only those who passed the first round remained.
Zuo Dao stood before the cultivators, followed closely by Three Women. This was unavoidable. Now everyone understood the strength of the examiner. Zuo Dao had managed to pass by facing two opponents alone; in the face of absolute power, respect always belonged to the strong.
