Devouring: Starting from Canglu Academy, it sweeps across all races

Ji Hang picked up a bottle of water from the side and drank it down, then started talking to Mu Li about the Hidden Dragon Academy.

"Brother Li, the Hidden Dragon Academy will open in a few days. I heard that in addition to the top 30 of this year's Wildfire Prodigy Tournament, there will also be contestants from previous Wildfire Prodigy Tournaments, so the total number of people may exceed 300."

"So many people? Don't you have any requests?" Mu Li was also somewhat surprised.

"It is said that there is a set of judgment methods, but I don't know the specifics. However, the most outstanding geniuses in each Wildfire Prodigy Tournament will definitely be able to enter the Hidden Dragon Academy."

"It seems the competition is fierce," Mu Li remarked.

"Brother Li, no offense, but let's just forget about it. Those past champions of the Wildfire Tournament have cultivated for decades longer than us. Who can possibly beat them?"

"Among our graduating class, only Yang Hao has a chance to compete with them, but whether he can beat them is another matter entirely..."

Mu Li nodded.

Although he and Yang Hao both possessed the Flame Domain, the contestants of the Wildfire Prodigy Battle were at a much higher level than them, with many of them being at the seventh or eighth level of the Planetary Realm.

Even the strongest of his flame domains has its limits.

I don't know the specifics of the Hidden Dragon Academy. Teacher An Yao said that if he wants to obtain cultivation resources, he needs to compete with others in the Hidden Dragon Academy.

Without cultivation resources, relying solely on absorbing cosmic energy, who knows when it would be possible to break through to the Hengxing level?

Thinking of this, Mu Li felt a surge of anticipation; she really wanted to clash with those geniuses from the Hidden Dragon Academy right away…

After practicing with Fatty at the Lieyang Martial Arts Hall for a while, Mu Li turned around and went home.

"You're back?"

Zhou Yuqiu was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron, which accentuated her beautiful figure. Mu Li leaned against the door and watched for a while. He liked her high ponytail the most, which made the skin of her neck look fair and slender.

Mu Li hugged her from behind, and the girl's rich fragrance filled his nostrils, giving him a sense of satisfaction.

"Honey, what are you making for dinner today?"

"I'm planning to put that piece of monster meat you brought back yesterday in a pressure cooker. Monster meat tastes better when it's stewed until it's very tender."

It's strange, actually. Logically speaking, the Liaoyuan Underground City is small and there is no space to raise monsters, but the market can provide a large amount of fresh monster meat every day. I don't know where it comes from.

Although the meat of these demonic beasts is expensive and ordinary people can't afford it, Mu Li can still eat it with ease with his current strength.

However, the meat of these demonic beasts was much more pungent and rancid than ordinary meat, and since the Wildfire Underground City didn't have many seasonings, even Mu Yingying didn't really like to eat it.

Dinner was quickly prepared, and Zhou Yuqiu brought over a large bowl of monster meat, immediately wafting a strong, fishy smell.

Mu Li was already used to it. He picked up a piece of monster meat and ate it, saying as he ate, "Yu Qiu, you should eat more too. Your martial arts talent is not low. Breaking through to the planetary level will not be difficult for you."

For Mu Li, his family is his weakness. He doesn't want his family to be separated from him forever at such a young age... With the Source Point Evolution System, as long as he has some time, Mu Li is confident that he can keep his family with him forever.

This is also his motivation for diligently cultivating himself!

Moreover, Zhou Yuqiu's talent is indeed quite good, and both of them are students at the Martial Arts Academy.

In Mu Li's opinion, if he didn't have the Origin Point Evolution System, he might not be as good as Zhou Yuqiu now.

"Um."

Zhou Yuqiu nodded obediently, gritted her teeth, picked up a piece of monster meat, frowned, and swallowed it.

……

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

When Mu Li arrived at the Hidden Dragon Academy, he was greeted by a vast courtyard with a training ground in the center paved with silver-white metal flooring, and inside were several large palace complexes.

The location of the Hidden Dragon Academy is right next to the Hall of Inheritance, mainly to facilitate the geniuses of the Hidden Dragon Academy to comprehend secret techniques.

"Brother Li, over here!"

As soon as Mu Li entered, he saw a chubby boy waving at him. He smiled and walked over, only to see Ji Hang chatting with a young man.

Mu Li also knew this person; he was Pang Feng, a contestant in this year's Wildfire Prodigy Tournament. Pang Feng's ranking was even higher than his, at sixth place.

Pang Feng spoke animatedly, while the chubby boy listened attentively, responding with exclamations like "Wow!", "Amazing!", and "Really?", all while maintaining a high level of emotional impact.

"Brother Li, you've finally arrived. This is Pang Feng. You probably don't know this, but the rumor that 'a planetary genius has just grasped a new realm' was spread by Pang Feng. He even saw Palace Master An Yao and the others with his own eyes."

"Oh?"

Mu Li raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, "Pang Feng, did you really see Palace Master An Yao and the others?"

"Of course." Pang Feng boasted with a smug look, "Mu Li, you didn't know back then, but Tu An and I were the ones ranked seventh in the Heavenly Pride Battle... Just when we were about to go and study the inheritance stele, we ran into Hall Master An Yao, as well as Vice Hall Master Luo and Vice Hall Master Yue at the entrance."

"I talked with the Palace Master for a long time. At that time, someone was studying the stone tablet in the side hall... The Palace Master asked me to wait outside. He also kindly suggested that if we couldn't wait, I could try to study another inheritance stone tablet."

"And then what?" Ji Hang asked curiously from the side.

"Hehe, don't you know who I am? How can I easily change my mind because of a few words from others? So I rejected the Palace Master's suggestion on the spot," Pang Feng said smugly.

"That powerful? Even the Palace Master dared to refuse?"

Ji Hang's small eyes widened in surprise.

Mu Li couldn't help but nod in approval. This Pang Feng truly lived up to his reputation as the sixth-ranked genius in the Heavenly Pride Battle. He was indeed quite something, able to stick to his principles... Perhaps he could really rise to prominence in the future and become a powerful figure in the Qingyan Clan.

"Did you get a good look at that genius, Pang Feng?" Ji Hang asked curiously.

"Cough cough."

Pang Feng had just finished showing off and was feeling quite pleased with himself when Ji Hang's question stumped him. He coughed twice, leaned close to their ears, and whispered:

"That genius was meditating in the Inheritance Hall, and I didn't even get a clear look at who he was."

Ji Hang looked disappointed. "If you didn't see it, how do you know he's a planetary-level genius, and that he's even comprehended a domain?"

"It's very simple."

Pang Feng chuckled and said, "Three Palace Master-level experts guarding the entrance must mean something big has happened. And there's only one possibility for such a commotion..."

"There is a planetary-level genius in the side hall who has comprehended a domain, and the three hall masters are probably preparing to guard the door and take on disciples."

"What if it's a star-level expert?" Mu Li interjected.

Pang Feng explained, "If it were truly at the Hengxing level, there wouldn't be so many Palace Masters present at the same time."

"good!"

Ji Hang nodded, agreeing with Pang Feng's point.

Mu Li, standing to the side, was both amused and exasperated. Pang Feng had actually guessed correctly, proving that this guy was quite something.

Mu Li listened for a while longer, and after listening, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. No wonder Pang Feng could hang out with Fatty; the two were really birds of a feather.

Pang Feng is a gossip, readily catching all sorts of rumors and gossip. There's practically nothing in the entire martial arts genius circle that he doesn't know.

Ji Hang, on the other hand, loves to gossip and doesn't forget to chime in when Pang Feng is bragging, fully maximizing his emotional value.
