Myth Beyond Heaven

Sure enough. Even his friend is not ordinary. Bai Yun thought to himself. Although Yang Chen was still a Spirit Profound practitioner, his strength was surpassed his peers by miles. Bai Yun believed that when Yang Chen stepped into the Origin Profound Realm, he should be able to fight with the middle or even the upper-level Origin Profound practitioner.

Yun Lintian naturally noticed Bai Yun’s tiny movement, but he was certain Bai Yun wouldn’t discover the Sun Overlord Profound Vein. He smiled and asked. ”What brings Brother Bai here today?”

”What? I can’t come here if I don’t have anything?” Bai Yun asked in a half-joke, half angry manner.

”Of course, Brother Bai can come here as you want. This place is your family property, after all… Do you want to go with us, Brother Bai? I happen to need a guide.” Yun Lintian chuckled.

”What? You want me to do labor for you? My wage is not cheap, you know.” Bai Yun made an exaggerating expression.

”I will treat you a big meal later.” Yun Lintian said.

”Hahaha. Deal!” Bai Yun laughed out loud and beckoned his servants to bring his carriage here.

The three of them boarded the carriage and immediately set off toward the academy.

Along the way, Bai Yun had introduced various places to Yun Lintian and Yang Chen. Yun Lintian soon discovered the Peng clan’s businesses were better than any other clans. This made him realize how deeply influential the Peng clan was.

”Now you understand why my Bai clan is desperately finding a helper.” Bai Yun looked at Yun Lintian calmly. He seemed to see through Yun Lintian’s thoughts.

”It’s not just my Bai clan, but also the Qin clan. We are uniting against the Peng and the Lin clan. But it won’t last long, I guess.” Everyone could hear helplessness in Bai Yun’s voice.

”Why?” Yang Chen asked in confusion. While Yun Lintian had a thoughtful expression.

Bai Yun let out a long sigh and explained. ”Currently, Peng Haoye is competing for the principal position, and he is likely to succeed. We only have two years left before the current principal stepping down.”

Yang Chen and Yun Lintian looked at each other with understanding expressions. When Peng Haoye became the principal, the Peng clan would undoubtedly ascend to the pinnacle of the Northern Continent. Even Frozen Moon Palace might not be able to go against them. Let alone the Bai and the Qin clan.

”Is there only one vice-principal?” Yun Lintian asked. Since Bai Yun said competing, there should be other candidates.

”There is another one… but he belongs to the Lin clan.” Bai Yun leaned backward, looking powerless.

Yun Lintian felt the same when he heard this. The fate of the Qin and the Bai clan was pitiful to the extreme. Either Peng Haoye or the other one succeeded in the position. They could not escape from this seemingly unavoidable nightmare.

Silence descended on the carriage. Everyone tried to think of a solution, but nothing came out in the end.

Yun Lintian honestly had no idea how to stop this incoming catastrophe. Not to mention the Peng clan was suspected of having something with Poison Valley. If that was the case, Yun Lintian could already foresee the future of the Northern Continent covered with Abyssal Energy.

Bai Yun waved his hand, trying to break the gloomy atmosphere. ”Let’s not think about it. Do both of you know this year’s assessment?”

”It’s not the same as the previous year?” Yang Chen asked confusedly.

Yun Lintian had also looked at Bai Yun. Han Bingling’s words before she left still lingered in his mind. He eagerly wanted to know what the change was of this year’s assessment.

Bai Yun gave the nod. ”This year is different. As we know, the Poison Valley outbreak months ago caused various profound beasts to go frenzy. Hence, this year’s survival ability test would be several times dangerous than before.”

”I see. Anyone infects with Abyssal Poison is almost hundred percent dead.” Yun Lintian immediately understood the crux.

”That’s right. But even so, I don’t think the number of this year’s applicants will decrease. After all, this is a once in their lifetime chance. No one wants to give up on such an opportunity.” Bai Yun said.

”Brother Bai, there is no one overseer during the test?” Yang Chen asked. If someone was watching over, the fatality rate would decrease significantly.

Bai Yun shook his head. ”There’s none. All of you have to rely on yourself. Many people lost their lives during this part every year, and this year should be more than before.” He looked at Yang Chen and said. ”If you aren’t confident, you should quit right away. The world is vast. The academy is not the only place in this world.”

Yang Chen slowly nodded his head. ”I understand. However, I definitely won’t give up.”

”That’s good.” Bai Yun smiled.

While they were talking, the carriage gradually approached a gigantic wall brimming with a profound aura. To the front was a massive iron gate with the word ’Sky’ engraved on it. When Yun Lintian looked through the window, he was surprised by the majestic scene. This place looked even more profound than the divine city’s entrance.

”We are here. You have to hand your token over to the guard before going in, and you can take it back later when you leave. Of course, this procedure only applies to the outsider. When you become the student here, you can come and go at will.” Bai Yun explained and brought Yun Lintian and Yang Chen down the carriage.

Bai Yun approached a young guard, who stood before the gate and said. ”Hello, we would like to visit the academy.”

The young guard immediately recognized Bai Yun and responded politely. ”It turns out to be Young Master Bai. May I know how many people are here?”

Bai Yun glanced at Yun Lintian and said to the guard. ”Three people and one companion beast.”

The young guard scanned Yun Lintian, Linlin, and Yang Chen, then replied with a smile. ”Understood. Please hand your token to me. I will apply for a pass for everyone.”
