"Not bad, little guy. I really didn't misjudge you."
At that moment, Xiao Hulu was the first to break the silence. Even it hadn’t expected that the formidable Shenzong would spare Su Chen. With the crisis averted, instead of fleeing, he was willing to use all his trump cards to make the opponent pay a price!
However, Xiao Hulu was not surprised by Su Chen's ruthless and decisive actions. After all, it had been following Su Chen from the beginning and knew his character well. If the opponent had spared him, he would have shown gratitude and served them like a loyal servant, but that was not Su Chen!
Su Chen's expression remained calm.
The Nine Nether Devouring Sparrow, as a Sacred Beast, had chosen to sacrifice itself in the Demon Suppression Cave that day, undoubtedly attracting countless covetous eyes in secret. After all, the soul of a Sacred Beast held immeasurable value if obtained.
Yet no one knew the true situation after the Nine Nether Devouring Sparrow's sacrifice, so they dared not act rashly. A Wang Jing Sacred Beast, even if its fate was unknown, was enough to instill fear in everyone.
If Tian Gui made a move and managed to escape unscathed, it was easy to imagine that he would face even more pursuers afterward!
Given this situation, Su Chen decided to summon the Nine Nether Devouring Sparrow and let everyone witness the power of a Wang Jing Sacred Beast!
He knew very well that he could only use the power of the Nine Nether Devouring Sparrow once. Precisely because he could only use it once, it needed to be maximally intimidating!
He believed that if he used the power of the Nine Nether Devouring Sparrow to suppress Shenzong, it would be enough to intimidate many strong individuals in a short time. Coupled with the backing of the old dean, anyone who dared to act against him in the future would have to think twice.
"Let's go."
The old dean sighed. It was unclear whether he was speaking to Su Chen or warning the powerful figures from the imperial capital.
As his voice echoed, the gathered aura in this place instantly dissipated without a trace. They safely arrived at Stellar Academy.
The next morning, Su Chen received a summons from the old dean.
It was Su Chen's first visit to the Core Hall of Heavenly God Academy.
With an excited heart, Su Chen walked up to the golden gate, gazing at the plaque above inscribed with the words "Heavenly God Academy." This was the core training ground for disciples of Stellar Academy. To enter Heavenly God Academy, one not only had to obtain the Immortal Seed but also endure numerous trials. For those not in the Shenzong Realm, it was nearly impossible to gain access to this place.
Creak.
As the gate opened, an ancient aura rushed out from the palace. In the corridor of the grand hall, a man dressed in a black robe passed by him, wielding a rusted iron sword. His eyes shimmered with a blue light; after casting a fleeting glance at Su Chen, he soared into the air, emanating a terrifying presence.
Shenzong!
Upon sensing the man's aura, Su Chen's expression changed instantly. Just as rumored, everyone in Heavenly God Academy was indeed from the Shenzong!
At that moment, Lin Aoxue approached him gracefully in a white dress. "He is our third senior brother from Core Hall, Qin Long," she explained. "He is a powerful member of Four Star Divine Sect. That sword is named Qin Long; it was once a super rare treasure. Unfortunately, it was destroyed in a battle a thousand years ago and has lost its spirit, now reduced to a useless blade."
Su Chen nodded in response, secretly amazed. He appeared to be only in his thirties yet was already part of Four Star Divine Sect; indeed, disciples from Core Hall were truly extraordinary.
Before long, Su Chen followed Lin Aoxue deeper into the academy.
