Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 423 Shengzhou Enrollment
Shengzhou, one of the Three Thousand Continents, was originally just an ordinary Daozhou with countless great mountains, but now it is bustling with activity, with countless living beings gathering there.

Ten-time champion, banished immortal, four-time champion, double-pupiled one, the desolate... all the famous geniuses of the three thousand continents are here.

Besides them, there are many others, roughly estimated to be no less than 100,000!
As for why so many people are gathered here?
This brings us to a major event that recently occurred in the Three Thousand Continents.

Of course, I'm not talking about the one in Tianzhou, nor the one outside Xiangu, but another matter concerning the life and death of the young geniuses of the Three Thousand Continents, and even the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

In order to cultivate the main force to fight against the alien world, the Heavenly God Academy, jointly founded by the major forces of the Nine Heavens, is enrolling students here today!
The enrollment of students by the Heavenly God Academy was such a grand event that it stirred up ripples across the Three Thousand Continents, just like a boulder thrown into a calm lake.

Countless young cultivators, filled with dreams and aspirations, flocked from all directions, hoping to stand out in this competition and step into the legendary holy land that could cultivate those capable of fighting against powerful beings from other realms.

Of course, compared to the ancient ruins, the number of people this time was much smaller.

As a result, many immortals perished in ancient times.

Secondly, this trip is even more dangerous, with a chance of certain death.

In ancient times, if you couldn't beat someone, you could hide and wait for the time to run out.

But this time, there will be no such opportunity, and everyone will face unpredictable and unknowable dangers.

However, precisely because of this, the average strength of those present was much higher than in the ancient times.

Unbeknownst to them, Shi An and Yun Xi had quietly appeared atop a mountain in Shengzhou, overlooking the surging crowd below.

After a moment, Yunxi frowned slightly and said softly, "With so many geniuses gathered here, I wonder how many will ultimately be able to enter the Heavenly God Academy."

"No matter how many people are involved, it is their own choice. They chose their own path, and their life, death, honor, and disgrace are up to them."

Shi An stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering in the mountain wind. His gaze swept over the sea of ​​people below, and his tone was as calm as an ancient, still pool: "The Heavenly God Academy was originally set up to select those who are truly qualified to fight against foreign lands. The cruelty involved is far beyond imagination."

"Since they have chosen this path, they must be prepared to bear all the consequences."

"Let's go, it's time to meet up with my brothers."

After saying that, Shi An took Yun Xi's hand and disappeared from the spot.

A few breaths later, in another relatively quiet mountain area deep in Shengzhou, overlooking most of the enrollment area, a barely perceptible ripple appeared in the space, and the figures of Shi An and Yun Xi silently emerged.

Several figures were already standing quietly here.

Leading the group was none other than the ten-time champion—the Emperor!
He stood tall and straight like a pine tree, hands behind his back, atop the peak. Although the aura of a true dragon was restrained, he still possessed a kingly demeanor that was as deep and imposing as a mountain.

Noticing the commotion, he turned his head and a gentle smile appeared on his handsome face: "Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, you've arrived."

"Big brother."

Upon hearing this, Shi An smiled and nodded, then greeted Zhe Xian, Chang Gong Yan, Shi Yi, and the others standing beside him.

Yunxi also curtsied.

"Brother An! Sister Xi!"

Suddenly, a lively red figure flashed by like lightning—it was Xiao Qi, the Lunar Jade Rabbit! Cheerfully, she pounced into Yun Xi's arms, her ruby-like eyes sparkling with excitement: "We've finally waited for you! There are so many people here!"

"Brother An".

Shi Hao's voice was steady, and he stood upright. His aura seemed to be naturally perfect, indicating that he had also improved greatly.

Cao Yusheng, standing to the side, still had that same round, smiling face, but a sharp glint flashed deep in his eyes, clearly indicating that he had made progress in his study of the Grass Character Sword Technique over the past six months. "Truly magnificent."

Looking at the dense crowd in the distance, Chang Gongyan sighed, "The attraction of the Heavenly God Academy's enrollment this year is greater than I imagined, but this opportunity is probably paved with corpses."

"A time of great strife is also a time of decline, a time when we tread upon the bones of the dead."

The immortal's voice remained ethereal and otherworldly. He toyed with a roc feather that swirled with yin and yang energy in his hand, clearly having mastered the Kunpeng Technique to a great degree: "We brothers, united in heart, shall strive for the ultimate path to the summit."

As Shi Yi's double pupils opened and closed, his gaze was deep and unfathomable. He swept over the figures below, each radiating powerful blood energy or runic flames, remaining silent. However, the aura emanating from his invincible belief was enough to send chills down the spines of anyone whose gaze swept over him.

As for Qin Hao, he also stood ramrod straight, with a faint aura of immortality emanating from his body.

Shi An's gaze swept over his brothers, and a warmth filled his heart.

After parting ways in the Immortal Era, each of them had spent more than half a year in seclusion cultivating the Ten Fierce Treasures. Now that they meet again, everyone's aura is restrained yet powerful, clearly indicating that they have all gained a great deal.

The emperor's brows furrowed with an even stronger dragon aura, hinting at a possible merging with the true phoenix.

A banished immortal descends to the mortal realm, his Taoist charm naturally arising amidst the flowing wings of a roc.

Shi Yi's double pupils became increasingly unfathomable.

·······
Even the seemingly petite Taiyin Jade Rabbit contains unimaginable and astonishing divine power.

"It seems that all of you brothers have gained some insights over the past six months."

Shi An smiled and knew in his heart that he and his ten brothers were the few pillars that truly stood at the top among these tens of thousands of people.

But everyone just smiled at this, except for Cao Yusheng.

He licked his lips and shamelessly leaned closer: "Fourth Brother, is there any more Immortal Wine?"

Clearly, the taste of the immortal wine that Shi An offered when they became sworn brothers is something he still fondly remembers.

The Moon Rabbit beside it also perked up its ears, its eyes filled with anticipation: "Yes, yes, yes! Brother An, I want to try some too!"

Hearing the two's words, the Emperor, the Immortal, Chang Gongyan... even Shi Yi couldn't help but cast their gazes over, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Seeing the burning gazes from his brothers, Shi An couldn't help but chuckle: "Fatty, Xiao Qi, do you think this is just ordinary tea? That kind of celestial brew is a great blessing to drink even once, how can you drink it whenever you want?"

Upon hearing Shi An's words, Cao Yusheng, Taiyin Jade Rabbit, the Emperor, and others couldn't help but feel a hint of disappointment.

But before they could be disappointed for long, Shi An turned around and took out a jar of fine wine that was filled with rich spiritual energy: "But this excellent monkey wine is plentiful."

"Hehe, that works too!"

Cao Yusheng didn't mind at all and happily accepted it.

"I'll say it again, this journey could easily end in death. You should think it over carefully, lest you regret it halfway through. By then, there won't be another chance. It's not too late to back out now!"

Just then, a sound suddenly came from a high mountain, giving everyone a final reminder.

As the voice faded, a commotion arose throughout the world, yet no one retreated.
