Chapter 860 The Challenge of the Illusionary God Monument (Please Subscribe and Vote for Monthly Tickets)

Since there was no way to pursue the matter, Su Ping didn't say anything more. He didn't have the ability to seek revenge against Star Lords at the moment, and as for making threats, that was even more pointless. He would never let his opponents know his intentions if he really wanted to deal with them.

After putting away the Hellfire Candle Dragon Beast, Su Ping left the island with the gold medal mentor.

When Su Ping returned, all eyes on the monument were on him, deeply moved.

"Twenty Laws of Power!"

"Am I misperceiving? This...this is already the limit of the starry sky, isn't it!?"

"This dragon beast actually held back its power earlier..."

"What the hell? Even battle pets know how to play tricks on people now?"

Everyone clearly saw how the Hellfire Candle Dragon Beast dealt with the Star Lord Realm mentor, but they all felt it was unreal. A Heavenly Fate Realm dragon beast could actually master the power of twenty rules, which was even more monstrous than the geniuses present!

"This dragon beast's potential is estimated to be SS-grade!"

"SS-rank? I feel like SSS-rank would be fine too. That should be the most outstanding prodigy, provided that its cultivation level is truly at the Heavenly Fate Realm..."

"Damn it, we're not even as good as one of their pet beasts!"

"I should be at the bottom of the mountain, not here..."

"It's all thanks to his pet beast. What's so great about it? Without that dragon beast, this guy is just a weakling."

"A noob? Didn't you see how well he fought for the top seat? Even if he wasn't as strong as his pet, he's nowhere near a noob!"

Su Ping and the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast sparked a lot of discussion. Many people made no attempt to hide their envy and jealousy. With such a monstrous battle pet, they felt that if they had it, they would also be qualified to compete with those monstrous talents at the top of the mountain!

On the island, the dragon demon clenched his fists, his face extremely grim.

"The defeat is a fact, so take it as a lesson. There will be even more prodigies in the upcoming Cosmic Genius Battle. Work hard in your future cultivation." The Star Lord Realm instructor of the academy said in a deep voice after seeing the Dragon Demon's expression.

The dragon demon gritted his teeth, feeling humiliated.

He knew, of course, that there were countless geniuses in the Cosmic Genius Battle, especially those who could fight their way to the star sector and the final arena, but he didn’t expect to encounter such a troublemaker here.

Moreover, this kind of defeat is too humiliating. The opponent didn't even have to make a move; he was crushed by a battle pet!

"If you perform well, the Dean will invite an extraordinary breeder to help you breed a pet beast with the Dragon Emperor. What you need to do is work hard to improve your own strength," the Star Lord Realm instructor continued.

Upon hearing the word "Transcendent Trainer," the dragon demon's pupils constricted, and he quickly asked, "Really?"

"Really, but only if your performance satisfies the dean."

The Star Lord Realm instructor nodded. He knew he had to use some strong measures to motivate them. However, he wasn't just making empty promises. If they performed well in the Illusion God Stele Secret Realm, the Dean would indeed lend a hand. After all, the further they went in the Cosmic Genius Battle, the more their reputation would soar!

"I understand." The Dragon Demon took a deep breath, his eyes calming down, but his fists clenched even tighter. The humiliation of today was etched into his heart.

Meanwhile, Su Ping had returned to the mountaintop and sat back down in his chair.

The few people next to him who didn't have seats looked at Su Ping, but they didn't seem to be challenging him.

Previously, Su Ping only used his battle pet and did not participate in the battle himself. No one knew whether that battle pet was Su Ping's ultimate trump card.

Moreover, the fact that the battle pet alone could withstand the twenty power of rules unleashed by the Star Lord Realm mentor was enough to make them wary and lack confidence in their victory.

"Is your battle pet really at the Heavenly Fate Realm?"

To Su Ping's left, the Holy Maiden of the Thousand Leaves, who had previously thought Su Ping was a coward, now had a somewhat different opinion of him. Judging from the overwhelming power of Su Ping's battle pet, Su Ping was probably just too lazy to fight, rather than afraid of his opponent.

Like her, even though that dragon demon was spewing filth, she was too lazy to teach him a lesson, thinking it would dirty her hands, rather than out of fear of the dragon demon.

"Um."

Su Ping nodded, with no intention of hiding anything. Although most people might not reveal the cultivation level of their battle pets, he felt it was a minor matter and not his trump card, so there was nothing wrong with exposing it.

"..."

Saintess Qianye fell silent for a moment. Although her perception judged her to be at the Heavenly Fate Realm, she was still greatly shocked to hear Su Ping admit it himself.

She believed Su Ping wouldn't lie. After all, someone as extraordinary as him would either remain silent or mock them, while lying... the more proud a person is, the less they would deign to do such a thing.

To Su Ping's right, the woman in the white robe also heard the conversation. Her expression changed slightly, and she suddenly felt that the stone chair she was sitting on was somewhat unsettling.

A battle pet at the Heavenly Fate Realm... its monstrous talent seems to surpass even hers.

After years of arduous training, he was hailed as a once-in-a-century genius, one in trillions, yet he was surpassed by a pet beast.

While the two women remained silent, the Dragon Emperor, sitting on a stone chair in the distance, exuding an aura of imperial dominance and commanding presence, spoke. He stared at Su Ping for a long while before asking, "What breed is your dragon pet?"

These words attracted a lot of attention, and people in other seats also looked at Su Ping, extremely curious about it.

If it were one of those legendary top-tier divine pets whose names they had heard of, then they could understand.

"?"

Su Ping looked puzzled and asked, "Are we that close?"

Su Ping hadn't forgotten the other party's earlier taunts, and this guy seemed to be from the same academy as the defeated dragon from before, right?

What's the point of chatting then?

"..."

The Dragon Emperor paused for a moment, then fell silent. However, his hand, resting on the stone chair, couldn't help but curl slightly, showing a tendency to clench into a fist. But he didn't clench his fist directly, as that would reveal his anger.

"Heh." With a cold laugh, the Dragon Emperor said nothing more.

The others felt a little disappointed that Su Ping didn't say anything, but they weren't too surprised. After all, battle pets are a trump card, and no one is obligated to tell you what kind they are. Who would take out their trump card to exhibit to others and give an introduction?

Suppressing their curiosity, the others exchanged glances, each lost in thought.

If the previous battle between the Holy King and Tianqi made them realize how terrifying the geniuses of other academies were, then Su Ping's battle made many of them take the others on the mountaintop seriously.

None of those who are seated here are weak!

"Amir Royal Academy..."

The Holy King, sitting on the other side, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked away from Su Ping. Although he was unwilling to admit it, a sense of relief welled up in his heart. Fortunately, he had chosen the Apocalypse instead of Su Ping.

At the time, he did intend to choose Su Ping, but considering the speed at which Su Ping seized the seat, coupled with a faint sense of danger emanating from him, he sensitively sensed that the other party was stronger than Tianqi, so he chose Tianqi.

As it turned out, his sense of smell was correct.

This guy is truly a monster; even his battle pet is so monstrous and terrifying!

On the island, the Dragon Demon had returned. He glanced at Su Ping, said nothing, and this time he turned and flew to Su Ping's right, arriving in front of the woman in the white robe.

"I'll take your seat!"

He said the same thing as before, but this time the dragon demon spoke without any arrogance; instead, his tone was unusually gloomy.

The woman in the white robe raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of surprise on her face. She looked up at the dragon demon for a moment, then smiled and said, "I admire your courage."

After saying that, she got up and flew towards the island.

The dragon demon snorted coldly, took out a pill and swallowed it. His previous injuries quickly healed, and his aura returned to its peak.

Soon, another major battle broke out on the island.

"This guy has finally learned his lesson and knows to challenge the Holy Nightingale Academy."

"There's no way around it. Only Saint Oriole Academy is a bit easier to bully. The others are all top-notch geniuses from their respective academies."

"Don't lose again, or I'll be too ashamed to face anyone."

While everyone was discussing, the battle on the island intensified. The woman in the white robe was a top genius at the Holy Nightingale Academy, known as the Goddess of Light. Her battle body was the Holy Light Battle Body of the elemental system, which was one of the top ten battle bodies of the light system!

Even now, she still holds the upper hand against the demonic battle form of the Dragon Demon.

But soon, as the battle intensified, the power unleashed by the dragon demon became increasingly ferocious. Some of the ultimate techniques that he had been unable to use when fighting the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast were also unleashed one after another, catching the Goddess of Light off guard.

Five minutes later, the battle ended.

The Dragon Demon has won!

In this battle, he displayed terrifying power, causing his opponents to retreat in defeat. Many who were looking forward to seeing Dragon Tomb Academy suffer a setback and lose twice in a row were disappointed.

The Saintess of Chiba, sitting to Su Ping's left, had a slightly cold expression. Although she and the Goddess of Light were on opposing sides within the academy, they were united outside the academy, sharing a common hatred for the enemy.

"snort!"

The Dragon Demon returned to the mountaintop and sat down to Su Ping's right. As he sat down, he glanced at Su Ping and let out a cold snort, implying that although he had lost the challenge, he was still qualified to sit on this mountaintop.

But shortly after he sat down, one of the people waiting next to him issued a challenge to him.

This is a student from Sword Master Academy, known as Sword Soul Madman. He carries a greatsword as thick as a coffin lid on his back, and his hair is disheveled. He seems to care nothing about his appearance.

Upon hearing his challenge, the dragon demon's expression changed. He had just finished a battle, and although he had won, it was only a narrow victory. The Goddess of Light was not someone to be trifled with; she had almost caused him to suffer a crushing defeat.

"I didn't expect Sword Master Academy to also pick up a bargain." The Dragon Demon said sarcastically with a gloomy face.

The Sword Soul Madman said indifferently, "So you're allowed to bully women because you're a man? You have those pills, don't you? Keep eating them, keep fighting!"

"Fuck your mother!" The dragon demon couldn't help but curse. He was a person who didn't care about using civilized language, and he couldn't hold back at this moment.

Those pills were extremely precious. If he hadn't lost so badly to Su Ping, he wouldn't have been willing to take them to challenge him again and regain his face.

You want to eat more now? Give it to me!

"If you want a challenge, why don't you challenge me instead?" At this moment, the Dragon Emperor on the other side spoke up, coming to the rescue of the Dragon Demon.

The sword-wielding madman frowned slightly. Before he could speak, the boy sitting next to the Dragon Emperor, carrying a wooden sword, smiled and said, "If you're very free, I can play with you."

He looked harmless and resembled a cute little boy.

The Dragon Emperor's expression turned slightly cold as he said, "I've heard that you are the Sword God's personal disciple, and I do indeed want to see for myself. I hope you won't disgrace your Sword God's title of deity."

"How dare you mention my master's divine title?" the wooden sword-wielding youth said with a smile.

"snort!"

The Dragon Emperor snorted coldly, not arguing on the matter further. A powerful being who had been granted divine titles was indeed not someone he could offend at present.

"Dare or not? If you don't dare, then get lost." At this moment, the Sword Soul Madman had already withdrawn his gaze and said to the Dragon Demon in front of him, his tone even more nasty this time.

"Come on then!"

The Dragon Demon couldn't stand this insult. He gritted his teeth and took out another pill, exactly the same as before. After swallowing it, he got up and flew to the island with the Sword Soul Madman.

The battle broke out again. The Dragon Demon unleashed a variety of special skills, but the Sword Soul Madman on the other side also displayed extremely terrifying power, especially his swordsmanship, which was superb. In less than five minutes, the Sword Soul Madman defeated the Dragon Demon by a narrow margin and seized the seat.

"As expected, these are all prodigies."

"Dragon Demon: I still have elixirs, I can fight again!"

"Pah, even if he still has pills, he wouldn't dare take any more. The rest of the people are not to be trifled with."

"Perhaps he can bully that other student from Saint Nightingale Academy a little more?"

"What do you mean by that? Are you saying that Dragon Tomb Academy only bullies women?"

"Your Shumia Academy is enough!"

"Dragon Tomb Academy is getting anxious, haha!"

"What do you mean? Do you really think our Holy Nightingale Academy is without anyone? Saintess Chiba is the strongest in our academy. If he had challenged Saintess Chiba, he wouldn't even have gotten a seat!"

Below the mountain peak, people from various academies were discussing the matter, and the girls from Saint Nightingale Academy also joined in the condemnation. Although Saint Nightingale had been squeezed out, this year's Saint Nightingale Academy was not weak.

Especially the Holy Maiden of Chiba, a super genius that their academy hasn't seen in hundreds of years. Having witnessed the battle of the Dragon Demon, they believe that the Holy Maiden of Chiba can definitely suppress it!

With the Dragon Demon's defeat, the Sword Soul Madman got the seat. This time, the Dragon Demon didn't take any pills and went to the mountainside with gritted teeth.

There were several other people waiting to be decided, who had chosen to take on the challenge. Some chose the Holy Maiden of Chiba, while others chose one of the twin stars of Shumia, the Queen of the Azure Sea.

But all the challenges ended in failure. In the end, the seats were fixed. Among the eight people on the mountaintop, only Dragon Tomb Academy and Holy Nightingale Academy had one seat each, while the other three academies had two seats each.

The Star Lord of the Secret Realm stepped forward and instructed everyone to cultivate diligently. The Illusion God Stele Challenge would begin ten hours later.

Within this secret realm, the blazing sun is constant, with no alternation of day and night. After everyone had settled into their seats, they all began their cultivation.

At the mountaintop, Su Ping felt the surging star power within the stone chair. Without hesitation, he activated the Chaotic Star Power Diagram, absorbing a large amount of star power and condensing it into his body's cells.

Because of the light array outside the seats, the cultivation techniques that everyone was practicing could not be leaked out, and could not be seen from the outside, so it looked very peaceful.

"And divine power and ethereal principles of the Dao..."

Su Ping's eyes flickered slightly. The seat on the mountaintop indeed had many advantages. The star power was extremely pure, and the divine power mixed in was also extremely abundant. In addition, there would occasionally be wisps of Dao thoughts. These Dao thoughts made people's consciousness clear and empty. If one happened to be stuck at a certain bottleneck or studying the rules, it was very likely that one would be driven by these Dao thoughts and have an epiphany.

Time flies by.

While absorbing star power and divine power, Su Ping was also integrating his own rules. Now, his accumulated rules far exceeded those of ordinary Starry Sky Realm cultivators, and he could attempt to construct a small world.

However, Su Ping had no idea how to construct the miniature world and could only figure it out on his own.

Ten hours passed quickly.

The Star Lord of the Mysterious Realm flew to this place, bringing with him a giant monument.

These giant steles vary in size and are all entwined with blood-like threads, resembling some kind of strange array inscriptions.

"The Illusion God Stele Challenge has officially begun." The voice of the Star Lord of the Secret Realm resounded throughout the entire Stele Mountain, pulling everyone who was cultivating back to the present world. He said, "You can choose any Illusion God Stele. The enemies you encounter inside will be different, but their cultivation levels will be the same as yours. They will only have slightly different attack methods. You can sense this before entering."

"I suggest you choose your most formidable opponent. The higher your score, the more benefits you'll reap."
