Chapter 1270 Competition for the Dao Child

"So now that you see it, what's the difference?" Su Ping asked, amused.

When Su Ping asked the question, the maid tilted her head and began to think seriously, saying, "You all have a special feeling about you."

"Is it particularly beautiful?"

"nice?"

The maid paused for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It's a very peculiar feeling, like being one with heaven and earth, very peaceful."

"Well……"

Su Ping suddenly wanted to show her his ferocity, to let this naive maid know that those who could cultivate to the Chaos Prodigy Ranking were not good people. Without experiencing life and death and trials, one could not reach such a position.

Whoosh!

Just then, Su Ping suddenly looked up at the void outside the temple.

A crack appeared there, and an old man in a white robe walked out from it. He had kind eyes and a look of surprise when he saw Su Ping. He quickly looked him over and was secretly impressed. As expected of the most monstrous student in the academy in nearly ten thousand years, he was indeed extraordinary. He could faintly feel a kind of pressure from Su Ping.

"You must be Su Ping from the human race?"

The old man smiled.

"Who are you?" Su Ping sensed that the old man was at the Supreme Realm, most likely an instructor in the academy or someone of even higher status.

"It is the branch elder," the maid quickly replied, bowing to the old man at the same time.

"I didn't expect you to escape from the Lin Clan and return safely. My master sent me to pick you up because he needs to see you. Please come with me," the white-robed elder said very politely.

Su Ping's gaze narrowed slightly. A master at the Supreme Realm? Could it be the God Emperor of the Heavenly Dao Academy?

He nodded. "Okay."

"It's the Elder..."

The maid was terrified when she heard what the other person said. She hadn't expected that Su Ping would be summoned by the elder as soon as he returned. The elder held an extremely high position in the academy. Apart from the outstanding students like Senior Sister Tan, it was extremely difficult for ordinary students to even catch a glimpse of the elder.

Led by the old man, Su Ping followed him as they tore through the void and flew all the way to the depths of the Heavenly Dao Academy. Ordinary students were forbidden from entering this place. There were magnificent halls standing in the void, some of which had their own barriers, isolating them from the world. Although they were completely visible from the outside, the time and energy inside the halls were completely different from those outside.

Soon, the old man led Su Ping to a hall called the Toad Fish Palace.

On both sides outside the hall stood numerous guards, all of whom were at the Divine Realm.

In addition, outside the hall, there was a black stele, in front of which sat dozens of deities, and there was also the aura of the Supreme Realm. They were all staring intently at the black stele.

"That's the Hun Tian Stele. It was cut off by Master from a giant sea beast, and it contains natural Daoist runes," the white-robed elder explained to Su Ping with great kindness.

Su Ping glanced at it from afar and felt as if his vision was being swallowed up by the black inscription, as if he were being drawn into it. He couldn't help but be secretly shocked; the inscription was indeed extraordinary.

Soon, the old man led Su Ping to the front of the hall. The old man bowed and said, "Master, I have brought the person."

"Okay, you can go back to your work now." A young and clear voice came from inside, without any trace of senility or old age, but instead full of vitality, like the voice of a young person full of energy.

"Yes." The old man in white robes nodded respectfully.

He then smiled slightly at Su Ping, turned and left.

"Please come in."

A voice came from inside.

Upon hearing this, Su Ping boldly pushed open the door and entered. He immediately saw that the space inside the palace was extremely unusual, with multiple spaces overlapping in a complex manner, as if constructing an extremely complicated spacetime.

Before him, instead of a throne, sat a futon in the palace. A young man in a blue robe sat cross-legged, holding an ancient scripture in his hand. His hair was disheveled, with a few strands falling on either side of his face, adding to his handsome features with a touch of languor and carefree ease.

"Greetings, Elder."

Sensing the faint aura emanating from the other party, Su Ping knew that the other party was indeed a Divine Emperor Realm cultivator.

The young man looked up, scrutinized Su Ping for a moment, his surprise growing stronger, and couldn't help but ask, "What realm are you at now?"

Su Ping honestly replied, "It should be the God Realm."

"Just became a main god..."

A gleam burst from the young man's eyes, and the space between them vanished instantly. Su Ping's body appeared directly beside him. He looked Su Ping up and down and said, "No wonder they said you have the potential of an Ancestral God. They were right. It seems you have a God-King Universe within you. Is it in its nascent stage?"

Su Ping shook his head. "The God King is a worthy opponent."

The young man paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, saying, "Good, good! You're a god-king to fight! As expected of a student of my Heavenly Dao Academy, your sheer boldness is enough to suppress most of the prodigies on the Chaos Prodigy Ranking. No wonder the human race, which has always kept a low profile, is willing to offend high-ranking gods for your sake. No wonder so many gods are willing to befriend the human race. We were right about you."

Su Ping was taken aback. He asked, "Elder, is our human race in a difficult situation right now?"

"fine."

The young man chuckled and said, "Although the Lin Clan is a high-ranking divine race, your human race has also managed to reach a mid-ranking status in the divine realm over the years, and is even a vassal of a high-ranking divine race. They cannot easily launch a war of annihilation against the human race. Although you killed their Lin Clan's divine son, it was done within the rules and conditions of my Heavenly Dao Academy, and my academy can verify this. Therefore, they cannot use this as grounds for punishment."

Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for your help, academy."

"You don't need to thank me." The young man shook his head. "You are a disciple of my Heavenly Dao Academy, as was the Lin Clan Divine Child you killed. Besides the Lin Clan Divine Child who died at your hands, there are other Lin Clan students in our academy who hold a deep grudge against you. However, our academy has always been fair and just. No matter how personal the grudge, no one can take action within the academy."

"If you killed the Lin Clan's divine son under illegal circumstances, we will not protect you. Do you understand?"

"clear."

Su Ping nodded.

The young man showed a satisfied look. "Judging from the time you entered the academy, with your current cultivation and combat strength, you are ready to graduate. The academy hasn't really nurtured you properly yet, and your growth rate has exceeded our expectations. If you wish, you can graduate at any time, or you can stay in the academy as an instructor."

Su Ping shook his head, "I want to study more in the institute. There's still so much I need to learn, and I'm still not good enough at teaching."

"Excessive humility can be a form of arrogance," the young man reminded her with a smile. "It would indeed be a waste of your time to make you a mentor. The academy is prepared to give you the status of a top-tier student. After all, your talent has been recognized by the Chaos Prodigy Ranking and you've already made it onto the list, which is enough for you to obtain this status."

"However, with your current combat strength, the title of Special Grade Student alone is probably a bit insufficient. I intend to propose that you become a Dao Child!"

"Michiko?"

Su Ping was taken aback; clearly, this was a status even higher than that of a first-class student.

"That's right. The identity of a Dao Child is similar to that of a Divine Child or Holy Child in your race. In your human race, we would call them Fire Seeds!" The young man smiled and said, "The most outstanding students of our Heavenly Dao Academy will receive unconditional cultivation from all the resources of the academy. All the elders can serve the Dao Child. As long as the elders are not in seclusion, they are always obligated to answer the Dao Child's questions and serve them."

Su Ping was taken aback.

This status is a bit too high!

The Dao Child of the Heavenly Dao Academy, isn't he the one who receives all the love and attention within the academy?

All the elders... these are all powerful figures at the Divine Emperor realm, ready to serve him at any time?!

"Don't get too excited yet. I'm just making a suggestion. Whether it passes or not depends on you. But in my opinion, you should have no problem passing. After all, as you said, you can even fight a God King. I hope you're not just bragging..." the young man said with a smile.

Su Ping scratched his head, feeling that this elder seemed overly easygoing.

"I will do my best," Su Ping said.

Given such a status, he naturally had to do everything in his power to secure it.

Not only for himself, but also for the human race of the ancient divine realm.

If he is a Dao Child, his very identity would likely be enough to secure the protection of the Heavenly Dao Academy, eliminating the need for the human race to worry about him or provide him with protection.

After all, the human race is not yet able to confront a behemoth like the Lin race head-on; the human race does not have an ancestral god!

"Alright, I'll inform the other elders later. You go back and wait for news; we should have the results in about a day." The young man reminded him, "Use this time to prepare well; competing for the Dao Child title won't be easy."

"it is good."

Su Ping nodded, glanced at the other person, and seeing that the other person had nothing else to say, he immediately bowed and took his leave.

Even after leaving the hall, Su Ping still felt somewhat unreal. The other party was overly easygoing and approachable, and the Heavenly Dao Academy treated him with great friendliness.

"It seems that there really is an Ancestral God in the Heavenly Dao Academy, and there may even be more than one, otherwise they would not easily offend a family like the Lin Clan." Su Ping's eyes flashed as he left the hall.

"Little guy..."

Inside the hall, the young man watched Su Ping's departing figure and chuckled softly: "If you can become a Dao Child, then I can consider it repaying the favor the human race did for me back then."

He was not a god, but a beastman from the ancient divine realm. In his early years, he had received a favor from a low-level human cultivator. That cultivator had long since passed away, but he had always remembered this favor. Therefore, he was particularly kind to humans and volunteered to inform Su Ping, just to see with his own eyes whether this rising human prodigy was truly capable of leading the human race to create a glorious era.

……

Su Ping returned to the temple where he lived.

He asked his maid about Daozi, and when he learned that Su Ping was going to compete for Daozi, the maid reacted even more strongly than Su Ping, and poured out everything she knew.

To Su Ping's surprise, there were not one, but three, Dao disciples of the Heavenly Dao Academy!

There are always three spots available!

Moreover, the Daozi is not static. When a fourth person with the qualifications of Daozi appears, the next one will be pushed out of the three.

However, it is extremely rare for Michiko to be replaced.

After all, once you become a Dao Child, the resources you receive are too abundant. If you are still squeezed out under such abundant conditions, it can only mean that a monster several times more monstrous has been born.

"I see. First, you have to compete among the candidates, then defeat the Dao Child to obtain the identity of the Dao Child..." Su Ping suddenly realized. He then inquired about the combat strength of the other Dao Children. What made him feel a little relieved was that although he had limited contact with the maid and did not know much about her, he could confirm that the other Dao Children had not reached the Divine Emperor Realm.

That's right. Reaching the God Emperor realm already makes one a giant in the Primordial God Realm. Among the high-ranking gods, they are extremely rare. Apart from the Ancestral God, no one can stop them.

Such an existence no longer needs the identity of a Dao Child.

"If I can obtain the identity of the Dao Child, I can ask the elders in the academy to step forward and pull the demigods from the Fallen Land back to the Primordial God Realm, so that those guys can also return to their homeland..." Su Ping thought to himself as he thought of the four supreme gods, including Sif.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.

Before the day the young man had mentioned arrived, Su Ping received news that he was to go and undergo the Dao Child Trial.

"So fast?"

Looking at the white-robed old man who came to greet him, Su Ping was somewhat taken aback. This efficiency was too high.

The white-robed elder also looked Su Ping up and down, even more surprised than Su Ping himself. The student who came to pick him up in the morning was actually told by his master in the afternoon that this student was going to compete for the Dao Child!

The rule of the Heavenly Dao Academy is fairness and impartiality; the capable rise to the top!

There are no racial privileges or differential treatment, no hierarchy of status; whoever has the highest talent and the strongest ability will receive favor and resources!

Therefore, the competition for the right to be a god is always open to the public. As long as someone challenges, and the challenger is deemed qualified, the right to be a god can be initiated.

With an elder vouching for him, there was no doubt that Su Ping had earned the challenger qualification.

"Go for it!" The adorable maid cheered Su Ping on with her clenched fists.

Su Ping smiled and followed the white-robed elder away.

This time, however, they did not arrive at the previous Toad Fish Palace, but instead went to another, more magnificent and splendid hall.

Inside this hall was another universe, with three blazing suns suspended above, each a strange, three-headed bird. Su Ping sensed a familiar aura, and something seemed to wriggle within his blood. He stared intently, the dazzling sun unable to scorch his vision, and saw that the three-headed divine bird was entirely crimson gold, its shape resembling a golden crow, but not a true golden crow.

"It has the aura of the Golden Crow clan. I wonder what kind of divine bird it is." Su Ping's eyes flashed.

At this moment, the two arrived at the square outside the palace, where eight figures stood, men and women, old and young, of various races. Some had heads that looked like wild boars, while others had heads like divine eagles.

As Su Ping arrived, the eight people who were waiting all turned around and looked over. When they noticed Su Ping's appearance, their expressions varied.

"They are human."

"Hmph, so the one challenging the Dao Child is actually a human?"

"Since when have humans dared to aspire to become the chosen ones of my Heavenly Dao Academy?!"

"Thank goodness I'm here. Get past me first!"

Some people looked displeased, seemingly quite bothered by Su Ping's challenge.

Su Ping raised an eyebrow slightly upon seeing the hostility emanating from these people, but when he sensed their cultivation levels, he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there weren't any particularly strong individuals among them.

"They are all candidates for the Dao Child, and also members of high-ranking divine races. Please don't take offense," the white-robed elder transmitted his voice to Su Ping, his attitude kind.

He knew that his master had a great fondness for humans, and therefore was also quite kind to them.
