The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

The city was very lively, with people coming and going and a constant flow of traffic. You could hear the hawkers' cries coming from inside the city even from outside.

Dragon meat buns, phoenix wings and liver, lion-shaped skewers...

You might be shocked when you first hear about these things, but once you really understand them, you'll realize that they're all pirated and there isn't a single genuine product.

Taiyin Shiyi shook his head and smiled, feeling the warmth and life of this ancient city.

He and Taiyang Shiyi didn't wait around; they rushed over at breakneck speed so they could have a private conversation with the three supreme beings and avoid any unforeseen events.

Side by side, they entered the ancient city and weaved through the crowds. With their unimaginable spiritual power, they found the strongest person in the city, a sect leader with terrifying cultivation who could easily knock them to the ground.

If nothing unexpected happens, he was placed here by the three supreme beings to count the participants in the trial.

After a moment's thought, Shi Yi chose to communicate telepathically and inquire about the relevant matters.

The old man, who was leisurely enjoying his tea, was startled when he suddenly heard the voice in his ear, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He hadn't expected that the first trial participant to arrive would be able to find him so precisely.

“Senior, my name is Shi Yi, a trial participant from the Three Thousand Dao States. I have important business to discuss with the three Supreme Seniors. Please help me inform them.”

The old man in purple robes stood up, his gaze deep, looking towards the source of the voice transmission. He had heard the three supreme beings mention "Shi Yi," calling him the number one genius of the Three Thousand Dao States, the number one in the competition among the geniuses of the Immortal Ancient Flower Bud. He had cultivated three strands of immortal energy and also separated his yin and yang bodies, making him quite extraordinary.

Seeing it today, it is indeed extraordinary.

"How did you know I was sent by the three lords to be stationed here?" the purple-robed old man asked with a slight smile.

"Senior is a sect leader and the strongest person in this ancient city. You must know the three supreme seniors," Shi Yi replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Hehe, you're quite clever." The old man in purple robes chuckled.

Then, he asked Shi Yi why he was searching for the three supreme beings.

It should be noted that the three supreme beings are responsible for recruiting students for the three academies in various worlds of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and they are very busy. Even if Shi Yi is the number one young person in the Three Thousand Dao States, it is impossible for him to meet with them whenever he wants.

Moreover, according to the purple-robed elder, the environment of the Three Thousand Worlds is barren, and both the number and quality of geniuses are far inferior to those of other worlds. Shi Yi is indeed extraordinary, but compared with the supreme geniuses of other worlds, he is probably a notch below.

Moreover, the trial was not over yet. As the person in charge of statistics, he still had to announce the last trial task before he could start counting the number of participants.

It is clearly inappropriate for a participant to request to see the examiner before the trial is over.

Shi Yi had anticipated the old man's reaction. He gave him his prepared explanation, vaguely mentioning the ancient immortal spirit—the Qilin.

These two words were too sensitive; the moment they appeared, the old man in purple robes' expression changed slightly.

It's no secret that a Qilin has appeared near a city on the ancient trial road; even the three supreme beings are paying attention to this.

The old man in purple robes had heard the three adults say that whoever could bring back the Qilin cub would be deemed to have passed the trial and would enjoy the most generous treatment from the three academies.

Now, when Shi Yi mentioned the word "Qilin," it was a veiled hint, and how could the old man in purple robes not understand?
“Alright, I will report your matter to the three lords immediately.” He took a deep breath and said.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior." Shi Yi nodded.

Then, they sat cross-legged on a giant rock outside the city, closed their eyes to rest, and waited patiently.

He didn't know how much time had passed when Shi Yi, who was meditating on the Dao, suddenly sensed a strange fluctuation. He immediately opened his eyes and saw a wonderful sight: a dazzling golden road descended from the sky and stretched all the way to Shi Yi's feet.

The golden road was constructed by the power of rules, majestic and grand, awe-inspiring, as if an invincible supreme being was looking down upon the human world.

As Shi Yi followed the golden path to its source, he met a pair of majestic and profound eyes—one of the three supreme beings Shi Yi was searching for.

"Come up and let's chat."

The middle-aged man spoke, his voice steady and powerful.

Shi Yi emerged with both bodies, without hesitation, and stepped directly onto the golden road.

The next moment, he was propelled by a force and instantly appeared in front of the middle-aged supreme being.

Of the three supreme beings, only one came because they were very busy and had many things to do.

"I heard you mentioned the Qilin earlier?" The middle-aged man cut to the chase, directly asking about what he cared about most.

"Senior, what can the one who finds the Qilin obtain?" Shi Yi asked without beating around the bush.

"You've passed the trial directly and can join the Heavenly God Academy, where you'll receive their full support." The middle-aged sage said, his eyes gleaming. He didn't believe Shi Yi was the type to talk nonsense; since he asked this question, there was a good chance he really had connections.

"Join the Heavenly God Academy and receive its full support..." Shi Yi repeated.

His original intention was for the Taiyin body to enter the Immortal Academy and the Taiyang body to enter the Holy Academy. However, initially, the geniuses of the three thousand Dao states would all enter the Heavenly God Academy, and then, based on their aptitude and path, they would be decided to enter either the Immortal Academy or the Holy Academy.

Receiving the full support of the Heavenly God Academy seems like a good idea.

"Senior, is the Qilin cub very important?" Shi Yi asked.

"Of course, it is a descendant of the Ten Ferocious Qilin of the Immortal Ancient Era. It possesses invincible bloodline and its value for cultivation is unimaginable. Once it grows up, it will become one of the strongest combat forces and play a huge role." The Supreme nodded.

"Alright, I can bring back the Qilin cub, but on one condition."

"Feel free to ask, as long as it's within my capabilities, I'll grant your request." The Supreme One's face lit up with joy.

If we could obtain a Qilin cub, the trip would be truly worthwhile, greatly enhancing the foundation of the Heavenly God Academy.

"It's very simple. When the Imperial City teleports, please have the senior personally handle it to ensure that I can directly reach the Boundless Heaven and the Heavenly God Academy, rather than some other dangerous place," Shi Yi said.

"Hehe, you're overthinking it. The Three Great Academies' Trial of the Prodigies concerns the safety of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Who would dare to do such a thing?" The Supreme One chuckled and replied.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi revealed a smile that was difficult to decipher.

“Senior, I am a great calamity of the Sin Clan. Do you think those who define the Sin Clan in the Nine Heavens would let me reach the Heavenly God Academy smoothly? I don’t believe it.”

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Being wavered slightly, his eyes darting around as if he were recalling something.

Considering the domineering style of that immortal family and their hatred for the sinful race, it seems not impossible that they would target the trial participants from the sinful race if they really wanted to.

"Alright, as long as you can bring the Qilin cub back, I can fulfill all these conditions." The Supreme One agreed; compared to the Qilin cub, everything else was insignificant.

"Do you have any other concerns or questions?" he asked.

“Your word is law, so I have nothing to worry about.”

"Of course, I always keep my word." The middle-aged sage nodded.

Having received the promised reward, Shi Yi didn't hesitate. His double pupils glowed, runes appeared, and he opened the chaotic miniature world he had created on his own. "Crack!"

A crack appeared, and the next moment, a child dressed in white walked out of it. Although he was young, his eyes revealed a resolute determination.

"Huh? This is..."

When the middle-aged Supreme Being saw the white-robed child, he couldn't help but be greatly surprised. With his powerful cultivation, he could naturally tell at a glance that the white-robed child was a young Qilin beast in disguise.

He excitedly stepped forward, grabbed the arm of the child in white, and confirmed it.

"It really is a Qilin cub, a pure-blooded descendant of the Ten Fiends." The middle-aged Supreme muttered to himself.

With such bloodline, as long as they can grow up smoothly, they are destined to become incredibly powerful and awe-inspiring.

"Shi Yi, you've done very well. All the conditions I mentioned earlier will be fulfilled without fail, so you can rest assured." The middle-aged sage was in a great mood and praised Shi Yi.

"Then thank you very much, senior." Shi Yi nodded and winked at the white Qilin.

The white Qilin showed joy, happy that it could help its master.

Afterwards, the middle-aged Supreme Being left with the White Qilin. He wanted to share this good news with the other two. As for Shi Yi, he continued to wait outside the city for the other trial participants who had passed the trial to arrive.

The difference is that he no longer needs to complete the final trial task, as he has already been registered by the purple-robed elder.

"It seems that your reputation as the number one genius of the Three Thousand Provinces is well-deserved, as you have managed to bring back a Qilin cub that countless people can only dream of," the purple-robed old man said with admiration.

"Hehe, you flatter me, senior. I was just lucky," Shi Yi said with a shake of his head.

The old man in the purple robe was unimpressed; this was definitely not something that could be dismissed with a simple "good luck."

He turned and left, leaving Shi Yi alone sitting cross-legged on the boulder.

After waiting for a while, a golden light suddenly shot out from the horizon at incredible speed. Inside the light was a man with a majestic and extremely powerful aura. His golden hair was draped down to his waist, and even his pupils were golden. He was very intimidating.

He spotted two figures sitting cross-legged on the boulder from afar.

"Who is faster than me?" The blond man frowned slightly, annoyed that someone had gotten ahead of him.

"boom!"

A burst of golden light erupted, and a powerful blond man strode out, arriving before the boulder where Shi Yi sat cross-legged, scrutinizing Shi Yi's body with an aggressive gaze.

"Heh, so it's the art of creating clones. That's a trivial skill. Only those who lack confidence would take such a path," the blond man scoffed.

Shi Yi's body didn't even move his eyelids, remaining as still as two stone statues.

"You're from the Three Thousand Provinces, aren't you? It seems the rumors are true; the Three Thousand Provinces are no good." Seeing that Shi Yi didn't react, the blond man thought he had hit a nerve and couldn't help but feel secretly smug, then continued to ridicule him.

"It's a bit noisy," Taiyin Shiyi murmured.

The blond man frowned upon hearing this: "What did you say?"

"I said, you're a bit noisy."

"No one has ever dared to talk to me like that before."

“Now that you have it, can you get lost?” Shi Yi said.

If the old man in purple robes hadn't warned him not to make a move here, he would have already dealt with this clown.

"I must say, you've got some nerve." The blond man was on the verge of exploding with anger; it was the first time he'd ever met a peer who dared to reprimand him like that.

"Senior, you said we can't use our hands, but you didn't say we can't use our eyes, did you?" Shi Yi suddenly transmitted his voice.

Upon hearing this, the old man in purple robes was taken aback: "Use your eyes?"

Before he could figure it out, Taiyin Shiyi made his move. He slowly opened his Taiyin double pupil, which was covered with runes and was extremely deep. One glance was enough to make people fall in love.

The blond man was about to continue his provocation when the gaze of the man with the double pupils of the Taiyin Sect shot towards him, and instantly, he found himself unable to look away.

That eye seemed to possess a kind of magic, like a demonic well that devoured people's hearts, making them irresistibly drawn to it like moths to a flame.

Before the blond man could shake off the effects of his double pupils, a terrifying force descended from nothingness and landed on his chest.

Double pupils open the heavens!
"puff!"

The blond man immediately coughed up blood, his face turning pale. He was nearly split in two by the attack. This was because Shi Yi had held back. After all, this was a gathering place for trial participants, and it wouldn't be good to start a killing spree. So, Shi Yi spared the man's life. If he had gone all out and unleashed the supreme secret of the Double Pupil Technique, the blond man wouldn't have been able to withstand it and would have lost his life instantly.

"you!"

The blond man was suddenly struck by lightning and nearly killed. He was furious and, without thinking, immediately formed hand seals. His body overflowed with powerful golden blood energy, causing the surrounding void to distort.

"I'll return the favor with a palm strike!" the blond man roared, unleashing his great divine power as he prepared to strike Taiyin Shiyi's head.

To his surprise, Taiyin Shiyi made no attempt to defend himself, not even trying to dodge. The blond man was overjoyed; if his attack had struck Taiyin Shiyi's head, this clone would likely have vanished into thin air.

Just as he was brimming with confidence and about to get his revenge, an old and dignified voice rang out, echoing outside the city.

"How dare you! Is this ancient city the place for you to duel?"

The next moment, a terrifying pressure at the level of a sect leader descended. The blond man hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and still unleashed his offensive technique towards the sky, shattering the clouds in all directions.

"Senior, he attacked first." The blond man pointed to the hideous wound on his chest, wanting the sect leader to punish Shi Yi harshly, preferably by stripping him of his trial qualification.

"I only moved my eyes, but I didn't take any action. Senior can testify to that." Before the purple-robed elder could speak, Taiyin Shiyi spoke first.

The blond man was stunned, because he had never seen Shi Yi argue so sophistry before.

"Senior, he's just making excuses." The blond man came to his senses.

"Alright, you've all come here not for internal strife, so why fight? From now on, no one is allowed to lay a hand on anyone, not even with their eyes. Anyone who disobeys will be punished." The purple-robed old man waved his hand.

"?" The blond man looked incredulous, seemingly unable to believe that the old man in purple robes would say such a thing.

"That's not fair!" he yelled, feeling like he'd been tricked.

Just then, Taiyin Shiyi stretched out his right leg, with three strands of immortal energy emanating from it, which were extraordinary and quite sacred, exuding a terrifying and overwhelming power.

"If you keep making noise, I'll let you experience the hardness of this leg. The senior said that you can't use your hands or eyes, but he didn't say you can't use your legs."
