Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 265 Ceremony
The Jindan Ceremony of Aoki University is actually a gathering of Jindan masters.

The school has a special place for holding the Golden Elixir Ceremony, which is a separate and isolated area in Qingmu.

Li Zhen was waiting at the scene early. As the host, he had to receive all the guests.

As a professor of Li Zhen's class, Master Yu Xinyi presided over the Golden Elixir Ceremony according to tradition.

Every time a Jindan Zhenren arrived, Zhenren Yu Xinyi would quietly introduce him to Li Zhen.

Any Jindan Zhenren in Aoki University who has time will rush back after receiving the news. This kind of gathering is not held every year, and sometimes it may not be held for many years.

Every Jindan Zhenren who comes here will be presented with a Jindan gift.

Relying on his perception of spiritual objects, Li Zhen could sense that the spiritual objects among them were of the third level, even though most of the golden elixir gifts were stored in a sealed manner.

The Jindan Zhenren who participated in the Jindan Ceremony had already known about Li Zhen through some rumors, so their attitude towards Li Zhen was not only congratulations to the new Jindan Zhenren, but also recognition of the powerful Jindan Zhenren.

It was no secret that Li Zhen owned a third-level spirit pet. The main reason was that the news of the thunder tribulation could not be blocked, and everyone who knew about it knew about it.

"This is Master Wu Ao, a master in the late Jindan stage!" Master Yu Xinyi reminded softly.

"Li Zhen greets Master Wu!" Li Zhen stepped forward and bowed. It was Master Wu Ao who severely damaged the 'Wind-Calling and Moon-Chasing Dragon Beast', which allowed him to gain such a great advantage.

His perception was very sensitive and he could sense that Master Wu Ao's breath was not stable. It seemed that his injuries had not yet healed.

"I've heard of your great name for a long time, and today I see that you are truly gifted!" Master Wu Ao returned the salute and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when he looked up.

He had been in seclusion before, and it was only after he received the news that there was a sixteen-year-old Jindan Zhenren in the school that he checked Li Zhen's information.

Li Zhen's information was so impressive that he broke through the barriers despite his injuries and wanted to participate in the Golden Elixir Ceremony.

"You're too kind!" Li Zhen said with a smile.

"I heard that you have a third-level spiritual pet. I wonder if you can summon it to see it?" Master Wu Ao asked again.

Li Zhen was stunned. He thought of his previous explanation to others. Perhaps Master Wu Ao also wanted to see the third-level spiritual pet he obtained because of him.

Thinking of this, he summoned his four legs.

As soon as the four legs appeared, the eyes of the Jindan Zhenren in the surroundings were immediately cast over.

A third-rank dragon beast spirit pet, this is almost any Jindan Zhenren's highest imagination of a spirit pet. Now that such a spirit pet appears before their eyes, how can they not pay attention to it.

"I didn't expect that there was such an opportunity hidden in the lair of the 'Wind-Calling and Moon-Chasing Dragon Beast'!" Master Wu Ao said with a long sigh.

He was very fond of the four-legged beast, but he also knew that it did not belong to him. In the battle between him and the Wind-Calling Moon-Chasing Drake Beast, neither side gained the upper hand.

He believed that it was because Li Zhen’s cultivation was weak at the time that he had the opportunity to sneak into the nest and get the monster egg.

"Master Wu, all the guests are here, please take a seat first!" Master Yu Xinyi interrupted at this time.

When Master Wu Ao saw that the table set for the Golden Elixir Ceremony was full, he greeted Master Yu Xinyi and Li Zhen, and sat down in his seat.

At the Golden Elixir Ceremony hosted by Aoki University, all tables were arranged according to the invitation list.

This involves the third-grade spiritual tea and spiritual fruit, so the table had been decided long ago.

The third-level spiritual tea and spiritual fruit are produced by Aoki University, the place is also from Aoki University, and even the presiding monk is from Aoki University. This is the benefit of having the support of a top university.

Among the invited guests, in addition to the Jindan Zhenren of Aoki University, there are also representatives from other top universities and representatives of forces that have close ties with Aoki University.

There are quite a lot of Jindan Zhenren coming this time, nearly seventy in total.

"The Golden Elixir Ceremony begins!" Master Yu Xinyi announced loudly.

All the Jindan masters stopped talking and looked at Master Yu Xinyi and their master Li Zhen. "Li Zhen entered school at the age of twelve, reached the second level of physical training at the age of fourteen, was admitted to Qingmu University without examination, completed foundation building at the age of fifteen, reached the third level of physical training at the age of sixteen, and achieved Jindan at the same time. A few months later, his spirit pet was promoted to the third level!" Master Yu Xinyi slowly told Li Zhen's growth experience.

After hearing this growth experience, all the Jindan Zhenren present, whether they knew it or not, felt a toothache. What kind of talent is this? Perhaps the cultivation speed is the slowest in the first year after entering school, and thereafter almost a new realm every year. When did cultivation become as easy as eating and drinking?

"According to convention, the newly promoted Jindan Zhenren will demonstrate their strength. Please correct me if I am wrong!" Zhenren Yu Xinyi and other Jindan Zhenren said this after digesting the previous words.

Demonstrating strength is also a way to show all the Jindan Zhenren that you have the Jindan combat power, and they can trust you when fighting together in the future.

This is very important, especially for Jindan Zhenren who belong to Aoki University. Trust is the basis for collaborative combat.

Li Zhen did not show any tricks. He first demonstrated the third-level spell. He tapped his fingers lightly in the air, and a spell pattern appeared in the void.

Then, a cage made of giant trees appeared in front of him. This was the 'Giant Tree Soul Trapping Spell' from the third-tier spell.

He summoned the Eastern Sword again, and it danced in the air, leaving behind trails of sword energy wherever it passed. This was exactly the 'Sword Qi Condensed Silk' of the third level of sword cultivation.

"Great!" After seeing Li Zhen demonstrate his strength, many Jindan Zhenren couldn't help but speak out.

The strength displayed by Li Zhen was not at all like that of a newly promoted Jindan Zhenren. His third-order spells had reached the Mingdao level, and his flying sword had reached the level of 'sword energy condensed silk'.

There were even Jindan Zhenren who were familiar with sword cultivation, and they saw that Li Zhen's 'Sword Qi Condensed Silk' had reached a very deep level of attainment, and it was unknown when he would be able to make further progress.

Master Yu Xinyi then announced that Aoki University had hired Li Zhen as a professor at Aoki University, and awarded him a graduation certificate and professor certificate on the spot.

The Jindan Zhenren present were also surprised to see this, as it was extremely rare to see a graduation certificate and a professor certificate issued at the same time.

Needless to say, as for the graduation certificate, Li Zhen naturally became qualified to graduate after becoming a Jindan Zhenren, no matter what year Li Zhen was in.

Li Zhen received his graduation certificate and professor certificate, and the information on his identity bracelet was updated synchronously.

He couldn't help but shook his head. It had only been a short time since he started studying, but he had already graduated from college. It took him a total of four years from the first grade of junior high school to graduation from college.

The professor of Aoki University is a professor recognized by the Immortal Country. With this identity, he has many privileges.

"Li Zhen has amazing talent. The school will reward him with a magic flying sword. I hope Li Zhen will practice hard and don't let his talent go to waste!" A magic flying sword appeared in front of Li Zhen, and then the voice of Principal Wang was heard.

All the Jindan Zhenjun stood up and put their hands behind their backs, which was a sign of respect for Yuanying Zhenjun.

They also didn't expect that Li Zhen's Golden Elixir Ceremony would actually alarm this person, and he would also bestow a flying sword magic weapon.

The Jindan Zhenren, who was close to Li Zhen, looked at the flying sword magic weapon in front of Li Zhen.

"It's a third-grade top-grade flying sword!" A low cry was heard, and the Jindan Zhenren who made the sound immediately shut up, but the words had already been spoken.

"How could it be a top-grade third-level flying sword?" A Jindan Zhenren couldn't believe it.

A representative from Wanjian University desperately sent out his divine sense. Ordinary observation might lead to mistakes, but with the exploration of divine sense, the grade of the flying sword magic weapon could be 100% confirmed.

Wanjian University excels in kendo and is also the top university with the most sword practitioners.

The representative of Wanjian University is a Jindan sword cultivator, who cannot hide his curiosity about the third-grade top-grade flying sword magic weapon.

The third-grade top-grade flying sword magic weapon is already the highest quality flying sword before the Nascent Soul stage. Its power is strong enough to greatly enhance the combat capability of any Jindan sword cultivator.

Even if controlling a third-tier top-grade flying sword consumes a huge amount of spiritual energy when one's cultivation is weaker, even if only one sword is launched, this sword can cause a cross-level attack power.

"It's really a top-grade third-level flying sword!" The representative of Wanjian University confirmed the grade of the flying sword magic weapon.

The Jindan Zhenren present were all wondering about one thing. It was too early for Li Zhen to be given a third-grade top-grade flying sword magic weapon when he was only in the early Jindan stage.

How could they know that Li Zhen's body refining skills had reached the third late stage. With Li Zhen's training speed, Principal Wang believed that Li Zhen could be promoted to the late Golden Core stage in ten years, so he bestowed him with a third-grade top-grade flying sword magic weapon in advance. At the same time, he was also making one thing clear to all forces: Li Zhen was under the care of Principal Wang.
