Chapter 981 Defending Heaven and Upholding the Righteous Path (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

When the trial ended, the divine beast was also defeated. Su Ping and the others stood in place, and a golden vortex appeared above their heads, which was the passage to leave the trial ground.

Although the three were infiltrators, the divine cards they possessed allowed them to trigger the trial passage.

Those who participated in the trial, if their divine cards were taken away, would have no choice but to remain here and wait for the subsequent rescue team to come and take them away.

As for those who possess divine cards, they will be the first to be guided away to participate in the subsequent trials.

"Let's go."

Su Ping glanced at the passage, feeling a little nervous. After all, they were infiltrators and didn't know if they would be discovered. But no matter what, even if there was danger, with the system's resurrection ability, they would still be safe and sound.

Of the three, Joanna was the most conflicted and nervous, never expecting that she would one day have the opportunity to come into contact with the Heavenly Dao Academy.

Back when the Heavenly Dao Academy was at its peak, she was just a little girl in the clan. At that time, some people in the clan also entered the Heavenly Dao Academy, and the whole clan was proud of such people.

Whoosh!

The three entered the passage, their figures quickly engulfed by golden light.

In a sudden, surreal journey through time and space, Su Ping felt the surrounding space and time changing. When he opened his eyes again, he saw a majestic divine mountain before him, with palaces shrouded in divine light floating on its summit. They were in a vast plaza in front of the mountain.

In the square, there are towering statues thousands of feet tall, some holding scrolls, others wielding giant swords, all exuding an aura of overlooking the heavens and earth, inspiring awe and reverence.

Around them, figures flashed and appeared, more and more, until they were densely packed, filling Su Ping's vision. He sensed with a little effort that there were hundreds of thousands of them, gradually filling the vast square.

"There are already so many people holding God Cards. How many people have had their God Cards stolen, or died or been killed in the trial grounds?" Su Ping was somewhat alarmed.

This is the second trial of the Heavenly Dao Academy, which means that even more people probably participated in the first trial.

"this……"

Joanna was stunned when she saw the sacred mountain before her.

She completely forgot about the other trial participants around her and was somewhat dazed. She recognized the mountain in front of her; it was the original gate of the Heavenly Dao Academy. After the Great War of the Gods and Wilderness, the Heavenly Dao Academy was destroyed, and its gate was occupied by other divine races. Later, when she achieved success in her cultivation and left her clan for training, she passed through this place during a battle.

At that time, the sacred mountain was charred black, and the surrounding floating temples had long since fallen and broken.

However, the overall outline remained unchanged, making it unforgettable for her. After all, what happened back then was her most profound memory in the God Realm, as if it had happened yesterday.

"The Heavenly Dao Academy has been rebuilt, and they've even restored this mountain gate... Could it be that the golden age of the divine realm is upon us once again?"

Joanna's body trembled slightly, her heart filled with excitement.

The fact that the Heavenly Dao Academy was able to repair its mountain gate and restore it to its current appearance reminded her of the strongest ancient divine realm. In that divine realm, the ancestral gods sat high in the heavens, countless powerful figures emerged, and generation after generation of geniuses dominated the world, making a name for themselves in battles. At that time, all alien races bowed down to them.

Even the ancient kings in the chaotic underworld chose to make peace with the divine realm.

"After all these years, perhaps the divine realm ultimately prevailed in the great war back then. If the ancestral gods hadn't sacrificed too many lives, then it's indeed possible to restore the glorious era of yesteryear!" Joanna thought to herself.

She became more and more excited the more she thought about it.

If that's the case, then bringing back the fallen demigods would be a piece of cake!

All that is needed is to report this matter to the Ancestral God of the Heavenly Dao Academy. With the power of the Ancestral God, it is believed that he can directly pull the demigod from the endless space back to the Primordial God Realm.

After all, that was once the soil of the ancient divine realm!

Su Ping sensed Joanna's emotional fluctuations beside him. He saw that her eyes were incredibly bright, as if she was excited and thrilled. He found it strange that he had never seen such strong emotions in this girl before. After returning to the Primordial God Realm, Joanna seemed to have transformed from a goddess who was detached from worldly affairs into a real person with flesh and blood.

"Has returning to your hometown changed you so much?" Su Ping murmured to himself, gazing at the mountain gate before him, lost in thought.

At this time, more and more trial participants appeared around them. Most of these trial participants were gods, and the rest were some vassal races of the gods. There were also quite a few humans among them.

The Primordial God Realm is a highly inclusive and top-tier world, where various races coexist and thrive, but only the God Race is supreme.

for a long time.

Before the mountain gate, several golden lights appeared, followed by three towering figures. These three were all using divine projection, their bodies appearing somewhat illusory, and they were thousands of meters tall, appearing like three mountain-like giants in front of everyone.

"I am very pleased that everyone was able to return safely."

The middle-aged man with blond hair, his face gentle and refined, said, "Now, we will first select those who have passed the trial. For those who failed, I hope you will continue to work hard. Heaven rewards diligence. Even if you do not enter my Heavenly Dao Academy, it does not mean you are failures. In my divine realm, there are endless opportunities and chances waiting for you to discover. I hope that in the future, you will all leave your mark in the chaos and make your own mark on life."

This gentle voice, like flowing water, was soothing and refreshing, dispelling much of the frustration and depression in the hearts of those who failed the trials, and restoring hope and light to their eyes.

"Now, I will use the divine cards you hold to distinguish those who have passed the trial. Please take the divine cards you have received into your hands." Another elder of the divine race said calmly from the side, seemingly more stern.

Upon hearing this, there was a slight commotion in the crowd, but it quickly subsided.

Su Ping took out the God Cards and gave ten to Tang Ruyan and ten to Joanna, then waited quietly.

Ten breaths later, the old man made his move. He raised his hand and pointed out a golden light, which burst forth from his large fingertip. It seemed to be a ray of light from the beginning of chaos, carrying a strange Daoist charm, giving people the illusion of sudden enlightenment.

The next moment, Su Ping felt himself being locked in by a force, and then his body was suspended in the air. At the same time, Joanna and Tang Ruyan beside him were also suspended in the air.

Many people in the crowd also floated up, and soon they arrived at the front of the square, hovering more than ten meters in the air.

Su Ping turned his head and looked around, realizing that the number of people who passed the trial was around 40,000 to 50,000.

On the ground, those who didn't have enough God Cards looked up at Su Ping and the many others who had passed, some with envy, some with resentment, and some with hatred in their eyes, staring at certain figures, clearly having a grudge against them.

"They passed it."

Among the crowd, the Flame Pattern God Clan youth and others looked up and quickly found Su Ping and his group among those who passed through. They had long guessed that Su Ping and his group would be able to pass through since they had snatched their God Cards. They just didn't expect that these infiltrators would actually dare to jump out. Did they want to sneak into the Heavenly Dao Academy?

"Do you think we should report them to the Heavenly Dao Academy?"

A young man next to him gritted his teeth and said.

They had a chance to pass, but they encountered a ruthless member of the Yuan Ji clan and lost their opportunity.

It's impossible not to hate.

"Don't be courting death," the Flame Pattern Clan youth hissed.

These words caused the three people beside him to slightly change their expressions. The youth with the flame pattern had a gloomy face and said, "What kind of ability does it take for them to infiltrate the Heavenly Dao Academy's trial grounds? You don't really think just anyone can infiltrate there, do you? Even if we risk divine punishment, even if we report them, do you really think the Heavenly Dao Academy can kill them?"

"In other words, if they're so afraid of their identities being exposed, why would they let us go so easily?"

Upon hearing his words, the three people beside him fell silent.

They were all geniuses from their respective races, and they had all thought of this point. However, the resentment in their hearts was like a gnaw at their bones, making them gnawing at their hearts.

"The strong prey on the weak. If it doesn't work out, we'll just come back next time," the Flame Pattern Clan youth said coldly. He was able to let go easily and didn't like dwelling on the past.

As they talked, the figures that had been flying around the square stopped and all gathered in the air.

"Congratulations on passing the second trial."

The elderly god in the middle, gentle and refined, smiled and said, "The entrance examination of my Heavenly Dao Academy consists of three tests. The first two tests prove your strength and combat ability. This third test examines your divinity."

"Divinity?"

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this word.

"That's right."

The refined old man said, "Our divine race stands at the pinnacle of all races, eternally immortal, because in addition to our innate divine bodies, our race possesses a divinity unmatched by any other race!"

"All living things in heaven and earth possess divinity, bestiality, demonicity, and other mixed qualities."

"Divinity is sacred and supreme, and it is the reason why we are able to create civilization, reproduce, and establish order."

"Because we possess divinity, we are distinguished from wild beasts, and from all other races!"

"Most other races are born evil and need to cultivate divinity to suppress their animalistic nature and bloodthirsty demonic nature."

The old man slowly said, "There are also some races whose bodies are mixed, such as the human race, whose emotions are complex, with seven emotions and six desires, making them very chaotic. In addition, there is the spirit race, whose demonic and divine natures are in opposition, neither demon nor god, sometimes good and sometimes bad, extremely unstable."

"Our divine race is born with divinity, compassion, and mercy."

"The demons slander my divine race, calling us hypocritical. But the demons' so-called 'frankness' is nothing but aimless slaughter, devoid of any emotion or rules, where the weak have no dignity in life!"

"Do you all know the origin of the name of my Heavenly Dao Academy?"

At this point, the old man looked at everyone.

When he paused, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Some people in the crowd had their eyes flickering, having heard the answer to this question from their elders.

However, faced with the imposing figures of the three Heavenly Dao Academy members, they dared not answer rashly.

"Defend the Heavens and Uphold the Righteous Path!"

"This is the very foundation upon which my Heavenly Dao Academy was founded!"

"Heaven is ruthless; it shall be punished!"

"To defend the divine path we believe in with the weapons in our hands—this is a spirit that every student of the Heavenly Path Academy must uphold!"

Without waiting for anyone's reply, the old man spoke passionately.

A hint of authority flashed in his eyes, seemingly as sharp as a sword, making it impossible to look directly at him.

"This third test will examine your divinity. Those who do not possess great compassion in their hearts will not be allowed to join my Heavenly Dao Academy. No matter how talented you are, even if you are listed on the Chaos Ranking, you will still not be accepted!" The old man's voice was firm and resounding.

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell into a deathly silence.

The most extraordinary geniuses listed on the Chaos Ranking are all turned away if their divinity is insufficient.

These words shocked everyone and left a deep impression on them.

Soon, many people developed an even greater sense of awe and reverence for the Heavenly Dao Academy before them.

"Defend the Heavens and uphold justice..."

Joanna murmured to herself, repeating those four words over and over.

To attack the heavens?

It seems that the battle of that year has not been forgotten.

The Heavenly Dao Academy remains the same Heavenly Dao Academy. If Heaven is unjust and inhumane, then it will be destroyed! What domineering power!

She felt her blood surging and an urge to shout. She wanted to join the Heavenly Dao Academy. If she were to encounter the great battle of that year again, she was willing to become a vanguard, rushing to the front lines to defend her divine territory!

She didn't want to leave the land that nurtured her!

She also hates the root cause of the war that led her to leave her homeland!

"All those who pass through, follow me into the mountain gate." The stern-looking old man beside him spoke indifferently after the old man in the middle finished speaking.

Then he rolled up his sleeves, seemingly enveloping everyone like a universe.

Su Ping felt a sudden darkness above his head, followed by countless stars shining brightly. They were enveloped in each other's sleeves, but inside was a vast world filled with countless stars.

Su Ping was somewhat shocked. This old man's cultivation level was absolutely terrifying, and it was even possible that it had surpassed that of a Supreme Being!

This is the terror of a top-tier training ground. Anyone who randomly steps out from any of the forces within it could probably sweep through everything in the Federation universe!

"I wonder how far such a world is from the Federation universe."

Su Ping thought to himself.

If the Primordial God Realm were to discover the Federation's presence, the entire Federation would likely face only one fate: becoming a colony.

They hadn't stayed in the universe in their sleeves for long when the starry sky before them disappeared, and a temple appeared before them. The old man from the divine race said, "You will rest here for ten days. During this time, someone will explain the third test to you in detail. After ten days, you will take the test together with the divine sons recommended by each race."

After saying this, the old man turned and left without hesitation.

"Is there anyone handsome who can explain in detail what the Divinity Test is all about, and how to test one's own divinity?" someone in the crowd immediately shouted.

"Well, you've come to the right person. Divinity isn't just about simple kindness. After all, a truly kind god would probably be dead in a gutter by now."

A short, chubby boy covered in scabs and patches spoke eloquently: "Divinity is something hidden within the soul. Some people who have killed countless people still possess extremely high divinity, while some people who have never killed may have no divinity at all. The reason they haven't killed, hehe, is that they haven't had the opportunity!"
