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

Chapter 435 The Three Bone Altar
Feng Wu's voice broke the brief silence, bringing Yun Xi and Huo Ling'er back to their senses from the shock of the Imperial City.

"Sister Fengwu!"

Yunxi's face lit up with a delighted smile as she went to greet him.

Huo Ling'er also put away her tense expression caused by the imperial city's power and showed a smile. After all, Feng Wu had gotten along quite well with them when they were at the Heavenly Immortal Academy.

Feng Wu warmly took the two women's hands, her gaze sweeping over Shi An, Shi Hao, the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, Shi Yi, Qin Hao, Chang Gongyan, Cao Yusheng, and others beside them, before finally spotting Qing Yi in the crowd: "Qing Yi, you've arrived too!"

"Sister Fengwu, how have you been?"

Qingyi responded with a gentle smile, her black hair flowing like a waterfall, her figure graceful, enveloped in a hazy moonlight, pure and otherworldly.

She and Feng Wu had many interactions when they were at Tianxian Academy, and they could even be considered close friends.

And so, the group of women gathered together, their voices sweet and melodious, talking non-stop. The topic gradually shifted from the shock of the capital city to their experiences over the past few days.

They were all the most outstanding women of this generation in the Three Thousand Dao States, each with their own unique charm. Standing together, they were like a beautiful sight, attracting the attention of many young cultivators around them.

Meanwhile, Shi An, Shi Hao, and other men also gathered together and talked to each other.

The ten-crowned emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the distant imperial city. He said in a deep voice, "The imperial city's aura is indeed extraordinary. Just approaching it gives one a sense of solemnity and desolation. I wonder what kind of scene lies on the other side of the city walls..."

"When foreign cavalry invade, this city will be the first line of defense in the nine heavens and ten earths."

The immortal, dressed in flowing white robes, twirled the roc feather in his hand. His tone remained ethereal, yet carried a hint of solemnity: "Unfortunately, we are not yet qualified to step into it."

Shi Yi's double pupils flickered slightly, and a rare ripple appeared on his cold and stern face: "One day, I will step in."

"Hehe, when the time comes, we'll just smash through the alien realm and wipe out all those immortals!"

Cao Yusheng took a big gulp of wine from the jar, then waved his fist with heroic spirit, which made everyone laugh.

"brush!"

As they were talking, a ripple suddenly appeared in the void, and then several figures emerged. The three supreme experts had returned. In addition, there was a petite figure holding a small Qilin beside them—the Taiyin Jade Rabbit!
"It's about time. Once we've finalized the selections, let's set off."

After looking around at everyone in the city, one of the middle-aged men suddenly spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this, the other two fell silent, standing still in the void, their bodies shrouded in a hazy, chaotic aura, making them impossible for outsiders to see clearly.

Seeing the three discussing who to choose, the group of geniuses below couldn't help but swallow hard, their hearts pounding with tension.

You must know, this is the final selection of the Heavenly God Academy, which is related to whether or not one can step into that legendary holy land of cultivation!

The conversation between Feng Wu and Yun Xi and the others gradually subsided, their gazes all turning to the three figures in the void. The oppressive atmosphere of the imperial city had not yet dissipated, and now it was even more solemn, with a tense atmosphere permeating the air.

But at that moment, the Taiyin Jade Rabbit, which was holding the little Qilin, blinked its ruby-like eyes and muttered softly, "I think we should bring them all. After all, you have already been biased and brought cultivators from outside the realm here to compete for the spots in my Three Thousand Dao States."

"Now that the cultivators of my three thousand Dao states have been able to get here by overcoming those cultivators from beyond the realm, they should all be considered to have passed the test."

Because she had gained the approval of the white Qilin cub, the Taiyin Jade Rabbit, although she had not yet officially joined the Heavenly God Academy, had a completely different status than before and was highly valued by the Heavenly God Academy. As a result, the three powerful figures couldn't help but pause slightly and think seriously after hearing her words.

At the same time, these words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, causing the eyes of the young cultivators from the Three Thousand Dao States below to light up instantly, and many of them unconsciously showed expressions of agreement and hope on their faces.

The words of the Moon Jade Rabbit perfectly expressed their feelings!
Why are cultivators from outside the region allowed to be brought here directly to participate in the final competition, while they have to undergo the life-and-death trials of the Golden Path to arrive and still face a second selection?
This is clearly unfair!

After a brief silence, it was the Supreme One in the center who spoke again. His voice was calm and even, but it carried an undeniable weight, drowning out the discussions below: "Courage, strength, fate, and luck are all factors that our academy considers. It is already quite an achievement to be able to reach the foot of the Imperial City."

"Furthermore, the number of people arriving from the three thousand prefectures was not large to begin with, therefore..."

He paused slightly, his gaze sweeping over the three thousand Daozhou prodigies waiting anxiously below, including Shi An and his group, Feng Wu, Zhen Gu, Teng Yi, and others, before finally saying slowly, "For this year's admissions, all those who arrive at the Imperial City's front station are eligible to enter the Heavenly God Academy." "Boom!"

This pronouncement resounded like heavenly music in the ears of the three thousand cultivators of Daozhou!

After a brief silence came an uncontrollable ecstasy and low cheers!

"It's done! We've all passed!"

"Great!"

Many people cheered. Although Shi Hao, the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, Shi Yi, and others did not speak, a hint of joy flashed in their eyes as well.

This result is in line with their strength and hard work in overcoming all obstacles.

"Take one last moment to experience this world!"

However, just as everyone was rejoicing at being able to enter the Heavenly God Academy, one of the Supreme Beings suddenly said, "We are about to leave this world."

As soon as this was said, everyone fell silent.

They were really leaving this world for another realm. No one knew how long this journey would take, or how many years it would take before they could return. Many people couldn't help but feel sad.

After all, this is the place where they were born and raised, and now they have to leave!
How do we leave?

Of course, not everyone is reluctant to leave; some people are even impatient and eager to travel far away to meet the immortals.

In response, another supreme being calmly said, "Next, I will lead you on a path to understand the ancient covenant."

After saying this, the three supreme beings did not linger and immediately led everyone towards the imperial city.

Upon seeing this, many young talents were immediately excited. They had long yearned for the ancient city built with stars as bricks and stones, but they had been unable to enter it.

They couldn't even get close to the city, let alone enter it, because there were many ancient formations that ordinary people couldn't overcome.

However, this time, led by the three powerful figures, they arrived at the city gate without any trouble.

The city is very high, reaching the heavens; the gate is very heavy, so heavy that it supports a whole starry sky.

"This...who can push it away?"

Looking at the towering city gate, many young talents couldn't help but show their unease.

Even though they were exceptionally talented and powerful, they felt as insignificant as ants in the face of such a colossal gate that seemed capable of suppressing eternity, and realized that it was impossible for them to push it aside.

"You don't need to lift a finger."

Just as everyone was troubled by this, one of the supreme beings suddenly spoke calmly, and then took out a piece of broken bone from who-knows-where and held it in his palm.

Not only him, but the other two were in the same situation, each holding a piece of bone fragment.

The remaining bones were all the same color, pure white like jade.

"Buzz!"

Before long, with the actions of the three people, the three pieces of bone finally came together and transformed into a miniature altar.

Although small and rustic, it has a faint sheen.

Moreover, the fact that the altar required the joint efforts of the three of them to preserve it shows how important it was!
