t and strength of that young Stone Emperor are also evident."You guys on Holy Spirit Island, you've gone a little overboard."From the Yaochi Sacred Land also came a group of women in flowing robes.The...With the arrival of Imperial Clan prodigies such as Gu Qitian and Xia Hou Fengyun.

The atmosphere at Jixia Academy was undoubtedly more lively.

Actually, many people are anticipating whether that figure will arrive.

Especially many female cultivators, their eyes revealing curiosity and longing.

After all, he is carefree and has reached the top of the Appearance Sealing God Monument.

It can be said to have unparalleled beauty.

Who wouldn't want to see the immortal face

But as time passed, the figure never arrived.

And the tests at Ji Xue Gong are about to begin.

Buzz!

In the void, a tremor suddenly resonated.

Immediately, countless lines appeared in the void, swirling and flowing.

Finally, it condensed into square steps.

Like a stairway to heaven, it stretches deep into the heart of Jixia Academy.

This is the first level's challenge, climbing the ladder to heaven.

All prodigies must withstand immense pressure and ascend the celestial ladder.

If you can't pass the first level, it proves that your abilities are limited and you cannot pass the assessment.

The ladder of ascension, all geniuses are starting to climb it.

Chu Xiao also leaped forward, eager to prove his abilities.

On the other hand, Gu Qitian and Xia Hou Fengyun remained calm and composed.

This might just be the composure unique to the Heavenly Pride of the Imperial Clan.

So-called assessment, for these Imperial Clan prodigies, is nothing more than a formality.

One by one, the peerless talents ascended the heavenly ladder.

A terrifying aura descended upon them.

Chu Xiao was quite adaptable to this, his pace not slowing at all.

After all, his current strength is no worse than some of the imperial family's prodigies.

Having learned the Time Divine Ability from the gold leaf, he was incredibly fast, able to outrun thousands of warriors with a single stride.

And at this moment, within the Jixia Academy.

Some figures are standing here.

Before them, a magical projection appeared, manifesting the figures of the proud sons and daughters of heaven on the celestial ladder.

"Well now, that lad is fast."

"I know him. He seems to be the one who challenged the young master of the Yun clan at the Longevity Banquet of the ancient ancestor Dantai before."

"Although some young bucks are fearless, he seems like a promising talent."

These figures are some members of the Jixia Academy.

And among them, there was a familiar figure.

Carrying a folding fan, he exuded an air of elegant scholarliness.

It was precisely he, Song Dao Sheng, who had a brief encounter with Jun Xiaoyao at the Sealing God Monument before.

Song Daosheng, also one of the Seventy-Two Sages of Jixia Academy, was known as Song Xianren and held a high position.

And what's even more coincidental is that he is also one of the examiners for the second level, the Sacred Dao Monument.

Song Daosheng came here in advance just to see if there were any promising candidates.

After all, within the Jixia Academy, the struggle for factions was also quite intense.

It's best to be able to recruit some good talent into your own faction.

"This man is Chu Xiao. He is indeed extraordinary, but unfortunately, he is overestimating himself and defied Young Master Jun." Song Daosheng thought to himself.

As a rule, outstanding talents like Chu Xiao would be the center of attention for all the major factions vying for influence at the Jixia Academy.

But he offended Jun Xiaoyao instead.

For Song Dao Sheng, Jun Xiaoyao was the thigh he had always wanted to hug.

As for Chu Xiao, since he offended Jun Xiaoyao, he can only say that he was unlucky.

"Before, I told Mr. Yuan about Your Lordship's matter, and afterwards Mr. Yuan said that Your Lordship had already agreed to come."

"In that case, I cannot allow Chu Xiao, that pesky fly, to disturb Young Master Jun."

Song Dao Sheng thought to himself.

One of the Seventy-two Sages of Jixia Academy, Song Daosheng.

At this moment, I feel like I've become Jun Xiaoyao's servant.

However, it is also because Jun Xiaoyao is so outstanding that Song Daosheng can be so willing to submit.

And it was also he who told Mr. Yuan to do his best to draw Jun Xiaoyao over to the side of Master Yan.

At this thought, a flicker of obscurity flashed in Song Daosheng's eyes.

As time passed, the first stage of the Sky Ladder was also over.

This stage alone eliminated seven out of ten prodigies, making it extremely ruthless.

Of course, Chu Xiao and the others naturally entered the second level without any doubt.

As for Xiahou Fengyun and other imperial clan prodigies, there's no need to say more.

and the second level, the Stele of Saints' Way.

This is an ancient stone tablet that soars over ten thousand zhang.

The above is engraved with classics, divine powers, and profound principles left behind by the sages of Jixia Academy.

However, it is extremely chaotic and profoundly intricate.

And the second test was to have these prodigies comprehend some divine techniques or scriptures from the complex and profound Saintly Dao Stele.

Based on the results of their understanding, determine if they have talent and whether they can join the Jixia Academy.

This is a test of innate potential.

As for this, Chu Xiao is extremely confident.

Don't look at his young age, he has actually been cultivating in the universe for hundreds of thousands of years.

Moreover, he had once discussed the Dao with Han Ping'an.

So this level was nothing more than a drop in the bucket for Chu Xiao.

Thinking about this, Chu Xiao's mouth curled into a confident smile.

While Song Daosheng, with his hands clasped behind his back, stared at Chu Xiao with indifference.

Soon, Chu Xiao, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, opened his eyes.

A glint flashed in his eyes.

He has begun to understand.

Then, Chu Xiao recorded the fruits of his comprehension in a jade slip.

Song Dao Sheng waved his hand, and the jade slip was brought to him.

Chu Xiao's mouth curled into a smile.

And just when he thought he could join the Jixia Academy.

Suddenly, a cold voice spoke.

"What I've grasped is not yet mature, full of rough edges and flaws. You may leave now."

The speaker, of course, was Song Daosheng.

Having unknowingly become Jun Xiaoyao's loyal lackey, he naturally wouldn't allow Chu Xiao to enter.

"What, how is that possible"

Chu Xiao's smile froze, then his expression turned cold.

He is confident that his own understanding will definitely not be inferior to the geniuses of the imperial clan.

Even the most talented young elites from the Liandi Clan can enter the Jixia Academy freely.

Why can't hetterns blazed with light, and a rain of brilliance cascaded.Even mythical laws cannot be directly smelted."Anything to do with fairies"The Emperor's daughter, Di Nü Zhāo, raised an eyebrow.This Jun Xi...
