Chapter 487: Entrance Exam (Part 1)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This fellow was really arrogant despite only being a Heaven Immortal realm expert. At any other time, w.a.n.g Mang would have attacked and destroyed this fellow.
However, he did not know much about this world, and did not know anything about the powerful factions and families in this world. He did not want to accidentally offend someone with a strong backing.
That would be disastrous.
Thus, w.a.n.g Mang coldly stared at the young man before glancing at the Dog Emperor and Bear Emperor, who were filled with killing intent.
These two fellows were just like w.a.n.g Mang, shameless and without any bottom lines, so how could they bear to be insulted like this?
“Be patient, your multicolored teleportation stones aren’t charged yet. If you kill this guy, you won’t have a chance to escape.”
w.a.n.g Mang reminded them in a whispered voice.
Hearing this, the Dog Emperor and the Black Bear Emperor swallowed their anger and nodded. However, their silence only made the person mock them further.
“What the h.e.l.l? A beast will always be a beast. Even in human form, you three still exude the aura of vile beasts from your bones.”
The Dog Emperor and Black Bear Emperor remained unmoved when they heard the young man’s taunting. However, the killing intent in their eyes grew stronger.
What the young man did not know was that he was digging a pit for himself. The moment it was safe to do so, these three would pounce on him.
As the saying goes, a dog that bites does not bark. The Dog Emperor and the Black Bear Emperor had such personalities, as did w.a.n.g Mang.
At this moment, the white-robed young man who had brought w.a.n.g Mang and the others here earlier stepped forward with a gloomy expression and said, “Ye Liangcheng, what do you mean by this?”
Ye Liangcheng’s expression was indifferent.
“What do 1 mean by this? 1 didn’t curse you when 1 called them beasts? Or do you think you are a beast?”
When he heard Ye Liangcheng’s sarcastic words, a cold glint flashed across Lin Dong’s eyes as he coldly said, “Very good, I’ll wait to see how you do in the exam. 1 hope you won’t have to eat your words then.”
After saying that, Lin Dong coldly snorted and ignored Ye Liangcheng.
Seeing this, it was evident that there was bad blood between these two, and that they had just coincidentally been caught in the crossfire.
However, that did not change the fact that he would not let this fellow go. Some lessons had to be learnt the hard way.
After the pair went their separate ways, the situation became peaceful again, and w.a.n.g Mang and the other two waited patiently for the exam to start.
However, at this moment, an extremely arrogant voice rang out, “All of you, make way!”
The trio turned to look at the source of the voice, as did everyone else.
In the distance, a luxurious golden carriage pulled by five multicolored tigers descended from the sky. Seeing this, the crowd quickly made way for him.
Then, a tall young man in a black dragon robe walked out of the carriage. The white cloak on his back fluttered in the wind. This person was a peak-level Heaven Immortal realm expert. However, the multicolored tigers that were pulling the carriage had reached the Immortal King realm.
From this, it could be inferred that this young man was from a powerful faction or family, and the heated discussions that erupted when he arrived proved that fact.
“Isn’t that the sixth young master of the Zhao family? I can’t believe this guy is here.”
“Isn’t it normal for him to come here? Even though the Zhao family is powerful, the Sacred Emperor Academy is the oldest of the four great academies.”
“That’s true. The number of scions from these powerful families that join the four great academies isn’t small.”
“What is he being so arrogant for! Without his family’s backing, he’s nothing!”
“Hahaha! If you have the guts, don’t hide in the crowd and say those words. Go and tell him that to his face and see what happens to you.”
Amidst the heated discussion, the young man from the Zhao family crossed his arms arrogantly and narrowed his eyes.
w.a.n.g Mang sighed inwardly at this sight. He wondered how strong a faction or family like this would be. How many Tier 5 experts would they have?
Thinking this, w.a.n.g Mang turned to someone beside him and asked with a smile, “Fellow Daoist, is the Zhao family very powerful?”
The man glanced at w.a.n.g Mang and sensed the aura of a peak-level Heaven Immortal realm expert from w.a.n.g Mang.
He then nodded slightly and said, “The Zhao Family is one of the five great families in the East Heaven Realm! They have no less than three Tier 5 experts in the family, and that is just on the surface.”
At this point, the man hesitated for a moment, and then whispered, “In comparison, Ye Liangcheng’s family is not even worth mentioning.”
“Small families like the Ye family rise and fall very often. However, the Zhao family has been in power for a long time.”
“As for Lin Dong, who spoke up for you earlier, he is the third young master of a similarly-sized family.”
w.a.n.g Mang was enlightened by this, and he gained a better understanding of the situation in the Sage Emperor Continent. Also, it seemed that this region they were in was called the East Heaven Realm.
He could not help but ask, “What about you?”
The man was stunned. He smiled bitterly and said, “I’m just a rogue cultivator with no family backing. 1 joined Sacred Emperor Academy to get resources.” “Fellow Daoist, are you also rogue cultivators?”
w.a.n.g Mang nodded slightly, but did not say anything further.
The man immediately smiled warmly.
“Fellow Daoist, since we are fellow rogue cultivators, we should take care of each other.”
Before w.a.n.g Mang could reply, a terrifying aura swept out. When he looked up, he saw a figure tearing open s.p.a.ce and crossing through s.p.a.ce.
Behind this terrifying figure were two peak-level Immortal Prime realm experts.
After seeing these three figures, the experts gathered on the mountain peak fell silent.
“The instructor from the Sacred Emperor Academy is here,” the man beside w.a.n.g Mang said before falling silent.
After indifferently sizing up everyone present, the terrifying Tier 5 expert said, “Alright! I won’t waste any more time. Form ten lines in front of the ten stone tablets.. We will begin the talent test!”
