Martial Defiance Across Nine Thousand Realms

"Ye Zhixuan?"

Elder Ji suddenly turned around, a warning glint in his eyes:

"Do not inquire about this woman. She is favored by the Child of Reincarnation."

"The Child of Reincarnation, is he that strong?" Ye Han's aura gradually turned icy.

"Strong!"

"He is an existence beyond your imagination. In the future, within the Academy, do not casually probe into matters related to the Child of Reincarnation, understand?" Elder Ji solemnly cautioned Ye Han.

"I understand!"

Ye Han responded nonchalantly, not taking it too seriously.

Now that he had truly entered the Cycle Academy, he would not fear anyone.

Shortly after, Elder Ji gestured towards the void in front of him, as if communicating with something.

In a moment, Ye Han saw a giant black eagle swooping down from the sky, landing submissively before the two of them.

"Get on!"

Elder Ji leaped onto the eagle's back first.

After Ye Han also jumped on, the eagle flapped its wings and broke through the air, reaching the sky in the blink of an eye.

Feeling the strong wind and the vast expanse of the sky, looking down at the mountain peaks below as if traveling through the clouds, Ye Han was profoundly moved by this mystical experience he had never felt before.

"This is called the Iron Claw Eagle, a tamed Monster Beast used for transportation!"

"In the Academy, there is a Beast Control Hall. Once you've saved enough Vigor Pills, you can go to Beast Peak and exchange them for a suitable Monster Beast as a mount."

"There's also the Myriad Medicine Hall, the Refining Hall... and so on. In the future, everything we Martial Artists truly need can be obtained there, including a Treasure Gathering Hall within the Academy where you can exchange for all sorts of precious treasures."

As they traveled through the sky, Elder Ji kindly reminded Ye Han about the various aspects of the Academy.

Before long, the two descended upon a brand-new peak.

"This is Divine Power Peak, where the menial disciples of the Gathering Core Realm practice and reside. 'Divine Power' signifies the Divine Power Realm, symbolizing the menial disciples' resolve to step into Divine Power, to be promoted to Outer Sect disciples through assessment, and to become ordinary disciples."

"From now on, you will practice here at Menial Peak. As long as you don't violate the Academy's rules, you will be free to do as you please."

After arranging everything for Ye Han, Elder Ji rode the Iron Claw Eagle away into the sky.

Walking through Divine Power Peak, Ye Han saw small courtyards built within the vast mountain range, each shrouded in a mist of light, quite imposing.

Ye Han stopped in front of one courtyard.

He had been assigned this residence upon registration.

Stepping inside, Ye Han was amazed to find that the pure divine power from the surroundings instantly entered his body, constantly flowing in even without him cultivating, changing everything about him.

The mist above the courtyard, was that the divine power of heaven and earth?

Martial Artists absorb the divine power of heaven and earth into their bodies and then refine it into divine power through the operation of Martial Arts Techniques. This is a gradual process where, aside from the influence of the strength of techniques and innate talent, the richness of the divine power of heaven and earth itself is also incredibly important.

Unexpectedly, this was the residence for the lowest level menial disciples of the Cycle Academy.

The courtyard had only two rooms, one for storing miscellaneous items and the other for living and cultivating.

Ye Han entered the living quarters, which contained a bed, a table, and chairs, and nothing more.

However, on the table lay a book titled "Primordial Void Records."

The book described everything about the Cycle Academy, including its rules and regulations, the various peaks, the many halls, and so on. The latter part of the book even had a brief introduction to the Primordial Void Domain, including some special and experiential places, as well as the major powers involved.@@novelbin@@

Ye Han immediately picked up the book and began to read with great interest.

The more he read, the more excited he became, realizing how vast and extraordinary the Primordial Void Domain was. He had never had access to such information in Flame City.

Now he knew that the City Lord of Flame City, when coming to the Cycle Academy, was at most an ordinary Outer Sect disciple, and even some of the tougher characters among the Outer Sect disciples were probably stronger than the City Lord of Flame City.

"Menial disciples, Outer Sect disciples, Inner Disciples, True Disciples!"

"Hmm? Among the True Disciples, the strongest existences, if they can pass the assessment and climb the ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps of the Floating Pagoda, can they then be promoted to a Child of Reincarnation?" Ye Han's eyes suddenly focused.

He read about the introduction of the Children of Reincarnation. In the Cycle Academy, only six Children of Reincarnation are born each generation, corresponding to the legend of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Each Child of Reincarnation is a true dragon among men, a phoenix among people, one in a hundred thousand, even one in a million top geniuses. The Academy opens six seats for the Children of Reincarnation every thirty years.

Among the six Children of Reincarnation, ultimately only one will truly emerge and stand out, becoming the Academy's... Holy Child.

As for the other five who fail in the competition, they will join a mysterious force within the Academy called the "Holy Hall" to cultivate. Although those in the Holy Hall are the losers in the competition for the Children of Reincarnation, they are almost the strongest among the disciples.

This generation's Holy Child has not yet been born, and only the first Child of Reincarnation has appeared, a person named Feng Wuliang.

"Senior brother Feng..."

Ye Han muttered these three words, his pupils suddenly constricting: "Could the senior brother Feng they speak of be this Feng Wuliang?"

"This Feng Wuliang, quite impressive indeed, with a single thought he can grant someone like Ye Zhixuan the status of an Inner Disciple, wielding power even greater than some of the elders." Ye Han couldn't help but think.

Normally, Ye Zhixuan should be a menial disciple just like himself, having arrived at the Cycle Academy not much earlier. Yet, she was directly promoted to the lofty status of an Inner Disciple by Feng Wuliang, a meteoric rise.

No wonder Elder Ji was so cautious, advising him not to inquire about anything related to the Child of Reincarnation.

"Ye Zhixuan, even the favor of the Child of Reincarnation, Feng Wuliang, is useless. He can't always be by your side."

"Sooner or later, I, Ye Han, will defeat and kill you, to clear my heart of any obstacles, to ascend in the martial path without hindrance, advancing step by step." Ye Han sneered.

Only strength is fundamental, the true path. Whether Ye Zhixuan becomes an Inner Disciple or not, Ye Han couldn't care less.

Without enough strength, no matter how illustrious your status, you're still doomed to be killed with a single punch!

Cycle Academy!

Incinerate Moon Academy!

Dragon-Slaying Academy!

Tyrant Martial Pavilion!

Seal Demon Villa!

Primordial Sword Sect!

Origin Demon Hall!

Ye Han continued reading.

The three great academies and four great sects, according to the Primordial Void Records, these seven forces are the true behemoths of the Primordial Void Domain, towering above the eight great empires, lords who disregard the empires' rules and regulations.

Ye Han knew that the Primordial Void Domain was under the rule of eight ancient empires.

Places like Flame City were under the jurisdiction of the Sun Moon Empire, and although the royal way had declined and the cities were almost independent, they were still influenced by the laws of the Sun Moon Empire.

The Lord of Flame City dared not defy the decrees of the Sun Moon Empire, but now that he had joined the Cycle Academy, even as a menial disciple, he could disregard the rules and laws of the Sun Moon Empire...

Ye Han read intently, spending three full hours almost finishing the Primordial Void Records.

Knock, knock, knock!!!

Suddenly, he heard someone knocking at the door.
