Heavenly Martial Academy!
Fang Chen was taken aback, and his gaze towards Wang Tao suddenly sparkled with excitement.
He had naturally heard of the name Zhongzhou, and he was even more aware of what Heavenly Martial Academy represented. It was one of the three colossal powers in Zhongzhou, where strong practitioners were abundant.
Within Heavenly Martial Academy, there was no shortage of experts at the Daoist Master Realm, and it was rumored that there were even supreme beings at the Nirvana Realm stationed there. Its strength surpassed that of the entire Spirit Realm Continent, far beyond what Ziyang Sect could compare to. Even the combined forces of the current Seven Sects Conference would not be enough to contend with Heavenly Martial Academy.
"This person actually comes from Heavenly Martial Academy!"
Fang Chen was secretly astonished. While surprised, his eyes flickered with brilliance as countless thoughts flashed through his mind. At this moment, he finally understood what the strategy of Ziyang Sect was in response to the obviously malicious intentions behind the early convening of the Seven Sect Conference. Given the current situation, it was clear that Ziyang Ancestor and others intended to send him to Heavenly Martial Academy.
If it weren't for the Fang Family, Fang Chen would have gladly accepted. After all, this would not only resolve the crisis facing Ziyang Sect, but it would also be a great opportunity for him personally. Being at Heavenly Martial Academy would undoubtedly be much better than being at Ziyang Sect. In such a place, his martial arts progress would surely accelerate significantly.
However, Zhongzhou was not close by. Once he left, he didn't know when he would be able to return. What would happen to the Fang Family? Moreover, if he considered the timeline from his previous life, the crisis threatening the annihilation of the Fang Family would likely arrive in two or three months.
Although an agreement had been reached with the Zhao Family, bringing in three warriors at the Primordial Embryo Realm to protect the Fang Family, this level of strength, compared to his previous life, should be sufficient to get through. But nothing is absolute; once the real crisis arrived, who knew what kind of significant changes might occur? Leaving at such a time would undoubtedly make it difficult for Fang Chen to feel at ease. If something irreparable happened to the Fang Family because of his departure, he would regret it for life.
For a moment, Fang Chen found himself in a dilemma.
His silence caused a slight shift in the atmosphere within the hall. The expressions of Luo Qingyan, Shilin, and even Ziyang Ancestor changed slightly. This crisis facing Ziyang Sect relied entirely on Fang Chen entering Heavenly Martial Academy to overcome it; at such a critical moment, he could not afford any mishaps.
"Hmm?" The smile on his face faltered slightly as he looked at the silent and downcast-eyed Fang Chen. Wang Tao raised an eyebrow, his expression filled with confusion.
Given how far things had progressed, he believed that Fang Chen could not possibly be unaware of their intentions. After all, this was Heavenly Martial Academy, a powerful force akin to a giant in the entire Spirit Realm Continent. Countless geniuses aspired to be there; now that such a great opportunity lay before him, almost within reach, why did this young man still appear hesitant and even somewhat reluctant?
What on earth was he thinking?
If it were an ordinary person, with Wang Tao's pride, he would have scoffed and lost interest long ago. However, with only an achievement in the Alchemy Realm, possessing a level of Divine Consciousness Power equivalent to that of a Daoist Master Realm, Fang Chen's potential was truly astonishing. Even someone like him, who was accustomed to seeing talented individuals, felt quite shocked. He understood that with such immense potential, if Fang Chen could enter Heavenly Martial Academy, he would surely soar in the future. At that time, it would be beneficial for both himself and his family.
But what exactly was this guy still hesitating about?
Hadn't he heard of Heavenly Martial Academy? Well, it made sense; as a disciple from a remote sect, it wasn't unusual for him not to have heard about it.
Feeling that he could attribute Fang Chen's hesitation to this aspect, Wang Tao cleared his throat twice and put on another smile. He believed that once they waited a bit longer for Fang Chen to understand what kind of existence Heavenly Martial Academy was, he would surely accept eagerly. He had seen this scenario countless times before.
"Fang Chen, perhaps this is your first time hearing about Heavenly Martial Academy. Let me introduce it to you..." said Shilin with a smile. Like Wang Tao, he clearly attributed Fang Chen's hesitation to not knowing what kind of place Heavenly Martial Academy truly was.
Just as he was about to introduce the Heavenly Martial Academy, he heard Fang Chen, who had been slightly bowing his head, suddenly lift it and say, "I know about the Heavenly Martial Academy."
As soon as these words fell, Shilin and the others immediately changed their expressions slightly. Even Wang Tao appeared somewhat unnatural, his gaze towards Fang Chen filled with confusion.
It was one thing to hesitate without knowing what the Heavenly Martial Academy was; they could understand that. But if he already knew about the Heavenly Martial Academy, then what was there to hesitate about?
"Are you worried about the Fang Family?" Just as Shilin couldn't help but speak again, Luo Qingyan beside her suddenly said thoughtfully.
Without saying a word, Fang Chen lightly nodded his head.
"The Fang Family?" Wang Tao asked in confusion, turning his gaze towards Luo Qingyan.
"Fang Chen once killed a Dao Sovereign Realm Expert's Divine Consciousness projection." As soon as she spoke, Luo Qingyan shocked both Shilin and Wang Tao greatly.
They couldn't help but gasp in disbelief. However, it was clear that Luo Qingyan did not give them time to digest this sudden and immense shock. She continued, "The Sect of that Dao Sovereign Realm Expert later sent ten Primordial Embryo Realm disciples to the Fang Family where Fang Chen was. And Fang Chen had just returned from the Fang Family to the Sect."
"What about the current Fang Family?" Wang Tao couldn't help but ask.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't care about the Fang Family or Zhao Family at all. But now, under the impact of such immense shock, he was clearly drawn into the conversation by Luo Qingyan and couldn't help but ask.
Beside him, Shilin didn't ask a question but her expression clearly showed she was also very concerned about this matter.
Ten Primordial Embryo Realm warriors went to the Fang Residence, and judging by Luo Qingyan's tone, it was evident that Ziyang Sect had not sent anyone to help deal with these ten Primordial Embryo Realm warriors; instead, they only let Fang Chen go alone.
Could a mere Fang Chen handle ten Primordial Embryo Realm warriors? Or did the strength of the Fang Family itself suffice?
Fang Chen certainly had great potential, but at this moment he only had the cultivation of Alchemy Realm. Potential does not equal strength; therefore, Shilin and Wang Tao, who were unaware of the truth, were still somewhat curious.
"The Fang Family only has two Alchemy Realm warriors... However, all ten of those Primordial Embryo Realm warriors are dead." Luo Qingyan said softly. Even though she already knew about this matter, she still couldn't help but feel shocked. She glanced at Fang Chen, who had an expressionless face and clearly wasn't focused on this topic, and finally added, "Killed by this guy."
"How is that possible?!" As soon as Luo Qingyan's words fell, a voice of astonishment came from beside her.
Wang Tao suddenly stood up from his seat, staring intently at Luo Qingyan before sweeping his gaze over Fang Chen again, his face filled with disbelief.
An Alchemy Realm warrior could single-handedly slay ten Primordial Embryo Realm warriors? Wasn't that absurd?
As someone from the Heavenly Martial Academy, he had seen countless Heavenly Pride individuals among whom many could fight above their level. He had even witnessed Freaks with Alchemy Realm cultivation defeating Primordial Embryo Realm Martial Artists.
However, that is only the case when fighting alone. If one faces ten opponents, especially ten martial artists who are each a significant realm above oneself, then not only is victory impossible, but once the battle begins, there would be no chance to escape and one would quickly be overwhelmed and killed.
Moreover, in this regard, even if Fang Chen possesses Divine Consciousness Power at the Daoist Master Realm, it is difficult for him to achieve any significant improvement in strength. Therefore, Wang Tao does not doubt him; he simply finds it hard to believe because he cannot envision even a glimmer of possibility.
"Fang Chen is also proficient in Spirit Arrays." Seeing the disbelief on Wang Tao and Shilin's faces, Luo Qingyan remained calm and paused slightly before saying this. Afterward, she added, "That Spirit Array capable of annihilating ten Primordial Embryo Realm Martial Artists can cover the entire Fengyan City, and its Killing Intent is astonishing. Even among Eighth Level Spirit Arrays, it should be considered extremely top-tier."
"Spirit Array! He can actually arrange a top-tier Eighth Level Spirit Array?" Wang Tao was once again shocked.
The path of formations is different from that of martial arts. If martial arts is already extremely arduous, then the path of formations is even more complex and difficult. For an ordinary person, not to mention achieving any accomplishments in formations or arranging powerful Spirit Arrays, even entering the basics might be nearly impossible; they would spend their entire lives as mere outsiders.
Therefore, not only within the Ziyang Sect but even in the Heavenly Martial Academy, the number of Spirit Array Masters is exceedingly rare, especially powerful ones. However, at this moment, Fang Chen not only possesses unparalleled potential in martial arts but also has such astonishing achievements in Spirit Arrays. At such a young age, he can arrange a top-tier Eighth Level Spirit Array capable of easily annihilating ten Primordial Embryo Realm martial artists. Such accomplishments are simply astounding!
A freak, an unparalleled freak!
If previously Wang Tao had felt some reservations about Fang Chen's silence regarding the Heavenly Martial Academy situation, now all that remained in his heart was a burning desire and a strong impulse to directly bring Fang Chen to the Heavenly Martial Academy.
Indeed, with his status in Zhongzhou and having seen countless Heavenly Pride individuals at the Heavenly Martial Academy, he had never encountered anyone as astonishing as Fang Chen. This was not merely a Heavenly Pride; it was clearly a freak!
