Inside the Purple Sun Hall, there were four people: three men and one woman. Although the number was small, if anyone from the Ziyang Sect saw these four individuals, they would undoubtedly be shocked.
This was because the identities of these four were simply too high.
The long-missing Sect Leader Shilin, Deputy Sect Leader Luo Qingyan, and the Ziyang Ancestor were present, along with a White-Clad Middle-Aged Man beside Shilin.
Though he appeared to be middle-aged, this man had a handsome figure and an ethereal demeanor, with a faint smile on his face. However, upon closer inspection, one could detect a subtle hint of arrogance in that smile.
Despite this hint of arrogance from the White-Clad Middle-Aged Man, none of those present—be it Shilin, Luo Qingyan, or even the Ziyang Ancestor—felt any aversion. As a member of the Heavenly Martial Academy, Wang Tao indeed had the qualifications for such arrogance. Moreover, they now had to rely on him.
"Wang Brother, I entrust the crisis of our Ziyang Sect to you this time," Shilin said solemnly while cupping his fists in respect towards the White-Clad Middle-Aged Man.
As Shilin spoke, the gazes of both the Ziyang Ancestor and Luo Qingyan also fell upon Wang Tao.
Noticing that all three were looking at him, Wang Tao merely shook his head lightly. "Brother Shi is being too polite. Given our relationship, this matter shouldn't be considered a big deal. However..."
He paused for a moment, a bitter smile appearing on his face. "The Heavenly Martial Academy is not the Wang family's Heavenly Martial Academy. Although I have a few recommendation slots, whether someone can enter is not up to me."
Wang Tao had already learned about the situation of the Ziyang Sect from Shilin during his journey here and understood that all their hopes were pinned on having someone among their disciples enter the Heavenly Martial Academy. However, as a member of the Heavenly Martial Academy himself, Wang Tao was well aware of how stringent the admission criteria were.
Under such stringent conditions, even though the Ziyang Sect was currently quite strong with numerous disciples—including many so-called geniuses—there was no guarantee that even one would meet the requirements when the time came. Wang Tao had witnessed this scenario many times before.
Upon hearing this, Shilin nodded silently and then turned his gaze towards Luo Qingyan beside him. He had already learned from Luo Qingyan that there seemed to be an exceptionally talented Little One in their Sect who was their hope this time. In fact, the appearance of the Ziyang Ancestor might also be partly due to that Freak's Little One.
Thinking of this, Shilin couldn't help but feel curious about that person whom both Luo Qingyan and the Ziyang Ancestor held in such high regard. During his years away from the Sect in Zhongzhou, he had seen countless talents and even some Heavenly Pride figures. Some of these individuals shone far brighter than those considered True Disciples within his Sect; yet sometimes they still couldn't gain admission to the Heavenly Martial Academy. Despite feeling apprehensive, Shilin was quite curious about Fang Chen, whom he had never met.
"Wang Brother, we have an exceptionally good Little One in our Ziyang Sect; you shouldn't be disappointed," Shilin said with a smile.
As the Sect Leader of Ziyang Sect, he naturally couldn't let down the prestige of his Sect at such a moment.
Upon hearing this, Wang Tao simply smiled and nodded. However, there was still a hint of skepticism in his smile; he had seen countless so-called geniuses and Heavenly Pride figures. Moreover, in his eyes, the Heavenly Pride of the Four Domains was not on the same level as that of Zhongzhou. If it weren't for his good relationship with Shilin and the considerable cost involved, he wouldn't have followed Shilin from Zhongzhou to Ziyang Sect at all.
"Here they come." At that moment, the Ziyang Ancestor, who had been sitting at the top with his eyes slightly lowered and had not spoken, suddenly murmured to himself.
As soon as these words fell, a handsome young man stepped into the Purple Sun Hall.
"Fang Chen pays respects to the Ancestor, Sect Master, and Deputy Sect Master." Fang Chen bowed respectfully. He had already been informed of Shilin's identity the moment he entered Ziyang Sect by the Ziyang Ancestor.
Fang Chen was quite curious about this mysterious sect master; however, most of the gazes were focused on Wang Tao beside Shilin.
This person was not from Ziyang Sect.
Fang Chen could tell this at first glance. A person who was not from Ziyang Sect could make the usually elusive Ziyang Ancestor appear; he must be an extraordinary individual.
This kind of extraordinary could be attributed to two factors: either impressive cultivation or a remarkable background. With Fang Chen's Divine Consciousness strength, he could almost immediately discern that this person's cultivation was at the peak of the Heavenly Realm. Although this level of cultivation was quite formidable, it was still not enough in the eyes of Ziyang Ancestor. Since it wasn't due to impressive cultivation, this person must have an extremely strong background.
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Fang Chen's mind.
While Fang Chen was assessing Wang Tao, Wang Tao also directed his gaze towards Fang Chen. The casual smile on his face quickly turned into a slight pause.
"What a dense Killing Intent." Wang Tao murmured, looking at Fang Chen with a hint of appreciation.
The Killing Intent that could earn his praise was certainly not ordinary; although Fang Chen's Killing Intent was currently restrained, with his cultivation level, Wang Tao could clearly sense it. The intensity of this killing aura was striking even to someone at Wang Tao's peak Heavenly Realm level.
The path of martial arts has never been a smooth one. For martial artists, mere talent and comprehension are not enough; every peak powerhouse has carved their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Therefore, in Wang Tao's eyes, Fang Chen's Killing Intent was quite commendable.
However, merely having Killing Intent was not sufficient. With a thought, Wang Tao sent out a strand of Divine Consciousness towards Fang Chen. After sensing the dense Killing Intent within Fang Chen's body, he found himself somewhat intrigued.
What Wang Tao did not notice was that as he extended a strand of Divine Consciousness towards Fang Chen, Luo Qingyan beside him slightly curved her lips into a faint smile, her expression briefly flashing with a hint of mockery.
According to the Ziyang Ancestor, Fang Chen was able to slay a projection of the Jincheng Ancestor's Divine Consciousness using his own Divine Consciousness Power in the Colorful Sacred Realm. This means that Fang Chen's Divine Consciousness Power is immensely powerful, not at all weaker than that of a Daoist Master Realm expert, and may even surpass it. In this situation, Wang Tao attempting to probe Fang Chen with his Divine Consciousness Power would be akin to showing off in front of an expert.
Sure enough, almost immediately, Wang Tao's expression changed slightly. He realized that his strand of Divine Consciousness Power vanished without a trace as soon as it touched Fang Chen, like a cow sinking into the sea.
What was going on?
Wang Tao looked surprised. With his Heavenly Realm cultivation level, he could easily probe the details of a Transcendence Realm Warrior without them noticing. However, the current situation was rather bizarre. Not only could he not probe, but his strand of Divine Consciousness Power had completely disappeared.
"Cough cough." A light cough came from beside him.
"Wang brother, this person's Divine Consciousness Power is already comparable to that of a Daoist Master Realm expert," a voice as faint as a mosquito buzzed in Wang Tao's ear.
Although this voice was extremely weak and could only be heard by Wang Tao himself, the moment it sounded, Wang Tao's heart trembled.
Daoist Master Realm's Divine Consciousness Power!
With his cultivation level, how could he not see that Fang Chen's cultivation was merely at the Alchemy Realm? Yet, a warrior at the Alchemy Realm possessed Daoist Master Realm-level Divine Consciousness Power!
Heavens! Is this guy a freak?
Even though he had seen many geniuses and had developed a strong immunity to so-called Heavenly Pride, Wang Tao was still deeply shocked at this moment. The look he cast at Fang Chen was filled with disbelief. He finally understood why his strand of Divine Consciousness Power had evaporated silently like a cow sinking into the sea when probing Fang Chen.
Using his Heavenly Realm-level Divine Consciousness Power to probe someone with Daoist Master Realm-level Divine Consciousness Power like Fang Chen was indeed showing off in front of an expert.
Wang Tao's face flushed slightly as he glanced gratefully at Shilin. If it weren't for Shilin's reminder, he might have attempted to probe Fang Chen again.
Once was already embarrassing enough; if it happened twice, it would be utterly humiliating.
However, despite the embarrassment, there was now a hint of fervor in Wang Tao's gaze as he looked at Fang Chen.
The cultivation level of the Alchemy Realm possesses the Divine Consciousness Power at the Daoist Master Realm, which is something he has never encountered before. However, this alone is enough to highlight Fang Chen's potential. Even without anything else, this point alone is astonishing enough for him to enter the Heavenly Martial Academy.
Moreover, aside from this extraordinary potential, when considering the Killing Intent that Fang Chen possesses, which even makes him take notice, Wang Tao's smile grows even more pronounced. Clearly, a person with such intense Killing Intent cannot merely be a decorative figure.
"Good, good, good!" Wang Tao clapped his hands and laughed, his face filled with admiration.
"Brother Wang, is this Little One satisfactory?" Seeing Wang Tao's demeanor, Shilin felt reassured and smiled as he spoke.
Having just returned to the Sect, he knew little about Fang Chen. The information Luo Qingyan had shared with him was limited; he only knew that this junior of the Sect was quite impressive. As for how impressive he truly was, no one knew. Even the fact that Fang Chen possessed Divine Consciousness Power at the Daoist Master Realm was something Wang Tao learned during his probing when Ancestor Ziyang secretly informed him, which allowed him to give face to Wang Tao.
"Satisfactory, of course satisfactory," Wang Tao replied with a smile.
Although the Heavenly Martial Academy has "academy" in its name, the competition within it is no less fierce than that within the Sect. Among various major forces, there is a struggle for talent and resources; in short, the invisible competition is extremely intense. The Wang family, while not weak within the Heavenly Martial Academy, is not particularly dominant either. Being able to secure an astonishingly talented individual in advance is naturally a good thing.
"Fang Chen, do not hesitate to greet Senior Wang Tao from the Heavenly Martial Academy," Ancestor Ziyang said.
These calm words seemed to seal the matter.
