From Five Animal Exercises to being hailed as a saint and ancestor

The conversation between the dean and the dean in the quiet room.

Like a boulder thrown into Yao Mengkang's heart lake, ripples spread outwards and lingered for a long time.

The shadow of the Heavenly Dao Sect, the steadfastness of the Heavenly Dao Academy.

Dean Ouyang Shuo's long-forgotten identity as a "Taoist Master".

These secrets gave him a clearer understanding of the road ahead, and also made him feel an inexplicable weight on his shoulders.

He was sorting out his thoughts.

The plan was to make good use of the remaining time to consolidate one's cultivation and head to the royal city.

The familiar bell in the center of the academy rang out again, its melodious sound piercing the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the commotion coming from the direction of the bulletin board was no less than that during the previous recruitment of new students by the Heavenly Dao Academy.

It was even more intense, with an almost fanatical restlessness.

"What happened again?" Yao Mengkang's mind stirred slightly as he suppressed the slightly restless Yuan energy within his body.

As the surging crowds once again headed towards the area that had become the epicenter of the information storm.

Beside the majestic golden light, there stood the [Heavenly Dao Academy Recruitment Announcement].

A brand new announcement suddenly appeared, with a green background, starlight flowing around the edges, and an aura of antiquity and danger.

The words on the announcement were like a brand, clearly imprinted on the eyes of every onlooker:

[A Letter to the Outer Disciples of Qinglu Academy]

In order to select outstanding talents, enhance the prestige of our academy, and respond to the recruitment of new members by the Heavenly Dao Academy, the dean and the elders have made a decision.

As an exception, the inner court's exclusive trial realm—the Meteorite Realm—was opened to outer court disciples.

It is intended to provide training opportunities for outstanding students from other departments, in order to help them improve their skills as quickly as possible!

Eligibility for Royal City Examination:

The top ten disciples of the Foreign Languages ​​Academy this year will automatically receive a recommendation quota.

Other disciples must have a cultivation level of nine or above in the Meridian Opening stage, and be recommended by their mentor and approved by the academy before they can register.

Qualifications for entering the Meteorite Realm:

Outer Court: Must successfully challenge the first floor or above of the Martial Arts Academy's Training Tower.

Note: The top ten disciples of this rank also need to pass the first level of the Martial Arts Tower to obtain the qualification to enter the secret realm!

Registration method: Eligible disciples from the outer court can register at the Ling Shi Ge within three days from now to verify their qualifications. Late registrations will not be accepted.

The secret realm will open three days from now at Chenshi (7-9 AM). Gather at the Academy Square and be led in by the elders.

Training Duration: The training period for this phase is two months.

Brief description of the hidden realm and risk warnings:

The Meteorite Realm is a fragment of an independent grotto formed by a meteorite falling from the sky in ancient times.

It contains the power of ancient stars and the immense vitality left behind by the core of a meteorite.

Its concentration of vital energy far exceeds that of the outside world, and it also contains a trace of the primordial energy of stars.

For cultivators at the Meridian Opening Realm, it is an unparalleled tonic!

Cultivating within this environment can greatly accelerate the accumulation of Yuan energy, broaden the meridians, and temper the physical body.

There is even a tiny chance of comprehending the way of the stars, thus improving the grade of one's cultivation technique and the spirituality of one's soul!

Outside the secret realm, there are materials such as Starshine Grass and Meteorite, which are used to forge spiritual weapons or refine spiritual pills.

At the heart of the secret realm lies a Starfall Platform, where one may comprehend the supreme Star Technique.

However, fortune may be fraught with misfortune! The secret realm may be wonderful, but it is fraught with danger!

The secret realm is not entirely stable and may contain natural dangers such as spatial rifts and turbulent energy flows; touching it will result in death or serious injury.

It is home to powerful Star Beasts.

It was born from the combination of the power of a meteorite and the remnant soul of an ancient beast, and is ferocious and powerful.

There are many beings comparable to the Spirit Sea Realm or even the Yuan Dan Realm!

Slaying a Star Beast grants a direct wisp of Star Origin Qi for tempering.

This is a unique opportunity in the Meteorite Secret Realm, but the Star Beasts are quite powerful. Please proceed according to your abilities.

The Starfall Platform, located at the core of the secret realm, is the greatest opportunity for the trial disciples and should not be missed. However, venturing into the core of the secret realm will inevitably lead to an encounter with the Starbone Beast.

The laws of the secret realm are unique, and cultivators within it face the risk of injury and death, which even the powerful figures of the academy cannot rescue!

Furthermore, due to spatial interference, the effectiveness of communication talismans and other such items is greatly reduced, and life and death are left to fate!

Therefore, those who wish to enter this secret realm must be extremely cautious and act within their capabilities! By registering, you are deemed to have voluntarily assumed all risks, including life and death!

The announcement caused an uproar throughout the entire School of Foreign Languages!

If the recruitment of new students by the Heavenly Dao Academy is an opportunity that is far away, then the opening of the Meteorite Secret Realm is a real and immediate blessing!

The methods for obtaining qualifications further clearly distinguished the disciples.

"The Meteorite Realm! It's actually the Meteorite Realm, which only inner court disciples can enter!"

"Stellar Origin Qi! My God, it's said that absorbing even a wisp is equivalent to months of arduous training! It can even broaden your meridians!"

"Starlight Grass! Meteorite! These are extremely rare materials!"

"But... people will die! Star Beasts, spatial rifts... it's too dangerous!"

"The first level of the Martial Arts Tower! That's the standard for measuring the combat strength of an ordinary peak-stage Qi Opening Realm cultivator!"

"I'm only at the seventh level of the Qi Refining stage, there's absolutely no hope..."

The shouts, the murmurs, the screams that mingled with ecstasy and fear nearly overturned the bulletin board.

Some were eager to try, some looked desperate, and some had shifty eyes, as if weighing the pros and cons.

Yao Mengkang stood in the crowd, his eyes scanning every word on the announcement, his heart pounding involuntarily.

Origin of the stars! Expand your meridians! Temper your physical body!

These words held a fatal attraction for him!

He had just broken through to the twelfth level of the Meridian Opening Realm, and his cultivation level was already perfect.

However, the accumulation of Yuan energy, the further tempering of the physical body, and the understanding of higher-level power all require time and painstaking effort.

This meteorite secret realm is practically a fast track tailor-made for him!

In particular, the "Original Qi of the Stars" and "Expanding Meridians" helped him consolidate his twelve realms and break through to a higher level.

It even plays an immeasurable role in laying the most solid foundation for the future Spirit Sea Realm!

As for the risks…

Yao Mengkang's eyes narrowed slightly.

Spatial rifts, star-bone beasts, true death... these words are indeed shocking.

But how many life-or-death crises has he faced?

Not to mention the months of training in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, just the recent outer courtyard competition, the stewards who arrive late at night, every time it's a crisis.

The path of cultivation is inherently defying the heavens, fighting against the heavens, the earth, and humanity!

If you shrink back from taking risks, you might as well have just been an ordinary person and lived a mediocre life.

"I must go to this secret realm!" A clear and firm thought formed in his mind.

He was the top disciple among the ten students of the Foreign Languages ​​Department.

However, his rise to prominence was short-lived, and he never challenged the Martial Arts Tower.

Although he knew that the first level of the Martial Arts Tower was nothing to him.

But this does not mean he can rest easy.

Within the secret realm, dangers come not only from the environment and monsters, but also from... people's hearts.

He didn't linger at the bulletin board for long, then turned and walked towards the Martial Arts Academy.

He needs to go to the Martial Arts Tower first to obtain the qualification to enter the secret realm.

The Ling Shi Pavilion was now overflowing with people, as disciples who had successfully challenged the first level of the Martial Arts Tower flocked there.

The registration and qualification verification counters were packed with people.

The queue stretched out in a long line, and the air was filled with a mix of excitement and tension.

Outside the Martial Arts Tower

Yao Mengkang's arrival caused another small stir.

Many eyes fell on him, some with admiration, some with envy, and some with a deeper, hidden jealousy.

He remained calm and walked directly to the fast track specially set up for the ten disciples.

"Senior Brother Yao!"

"Junior Brother Yao, you've also come to challenge the Martial Arts Tower!"

Of the ten disciples, only Xu Ziyi was present, as the others had already challenged and passed the first level of the Martial Arts Tower.
