The Grand Elder was on the verge of tears, filled with regret.

At that moment, an unknown cultivator casually remarked, "If it weren't for that Yin-Yang Holy Son provoking the Jun Family's Divine Son and forcing him to face the three trials, we might not have witnessed such a miracle."

"Exactly, exactly! The Jun Family's Divine Son was previously too lazy to take on the trials, but these two Holy Sons provoked him, truly overestimating themselves."

Hearing this, the Grand Elder was furious.

He turned his head, glaring fiercely at the two.

The Yin-Yang Holy Son and Xia Lan both turned pale, stammering, "We were only doing it for Brother Ji Xuan and the Holy Spirit Academy…"

"Useless things that only cause trouble!" The Grand Elder waved his sleeve.

The two felt a jolt in their chests, spitting out blood, and were sent flying once more.

If it weren't for their backing from the Yin-Yang Sect and the Great Xia Dynasty, along with their identities as Holy Sons, the Grand Elder would have been inclined to kill them.

The Grand Elder's figure flashed and he directly soared to the lakeside.

Looking out, the entire lake was stained red with blood, with golden-horned flood dragons floating on the surface, dead beyond recovery.

"Little Qiang, you died so tragically…" The Grand Elder couldn't help but cry out upon seeing a golden-horned flood dragon.

That was his favorite golden-horned flood dragon, and he had even given it a name.

Jun Xiaoyao was slightly taken aback, not expecting that the golden-horned flood dragons in the lake were raised by the Grand Elder.

If he had known earlier…

It seemed it wouldn't have made much difference.

"Grand Elder, my condolences," Jun Xiaoyao sighed lightly.

The Grand Elder took a deep breath, intending to be angry, but he managed to suppress it.

At least Jun Xiaoyao's attitude was still decent.

However, the next moment, Jun Xiaoyao said, "These flood dragons all possess dragon bloodlines; they are quite good ingredients."

With that, Jun Xiaoyao waved his hand, and with a surge of magical power, he collected the golden-horned flood dragons into his spatial artifact.

The Grand Elder was left utterly dumbfounded.

A devil!

In his eyes, this Jun Family Divine Son was a complete devil!

Now he finally understood why the Dean and others had warned him to avoid Jun Xiaoyao like the plague.

"The Jun Family Divine Son is a ruthless person…" Many cultivators swallowed hard.

Moreover, starting today, the three trials of the Holy Spirit Academy were essentially nullified.

Except for the first trial, the Heavenly Ladder, the second and third trials were practically non-existent.

"Truly worthy of being the Jun Family Divine Son; it's only natural that Ji Xuan would collapse in spirit when facing him," Hua Xiqing said in a daze.

Looking at the figure enveloped in divine light, transcendent and unparalleled like an immortal, Hua Xiqing couldn't help but speak, "Forgive me for being presumptuous, but may I have the honor to discuss the Dao with the Divine Son later?"

Upon hearing her words, many disciples of the academy were stunned.

Their academy's Saintess was about to betray them?

"Hua Xiqing, you…" The Yin-Yang Holy Son and Xia Lan were both shocked, unwilling to believe it.

Had she betrayed her comrades so quickly?

"The Divine Son possesses an unparalleled demeanor, something we cannot contend with. The reason the Divine Son defeated Brother Ji Xuan must have its own rationale," Hua Xiqing explained.

"Indeed, that's right. I believe our academy has misunderstood the Divine Son," a beautiful senior sister from the academy said.

"Exactly…" A group of female disciples voiced their support.

Meanwhile, the male disciples trembled, feeling a chill.

This world, which judged by appearances, was filled with malice towards them.

Jun Xiaoyao was also speechless.

If harvesting crops could be considered a reason, then he was indeed being reasonable.

"If there's time later, I don't mind," Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.

"Thank you, Divine Son," Hua Xiqing said, her face lighting up with joy.

She had thought that with Jun Xiaoyao's perspective, he might refuse her.

She didn't expect him to agree.

"The Divine Son is indeed a gentle person," Hua Xiqing thought to herself.

At that moment, deep within the Holy Spirit Academy, a vague sound of Dao resonated, spreading out and making people feel as if they were about to comprehend the Dao.

Heavenly auspices descended, and extraordinary phenomena manifested, with celestial light shining in the sky.

"The Heavenly Dao Tower is about to open!" Many young cultivators looked excited.

"Is it finally opening?" Jun Xiaoyao murmured.

Breaking the record of the three trials was nothing to him.

Jun Xiaoyao didn't think he had done anything particularly impressive; it was too easy for him.

The Heavenly Dao Tower was his true goal.

All the prodigies from major forces and young cultivators headed towards the Heavenly Dao Tower.

The Heavenly Dao Tower was located deep within the Holy Spirit Academy.

From a distance, it soared into the clouds, exuding an ancient aura, as if it had been passed down from ancient times.

Around the Heavenly Dao Tower, mysterious runes were imprinted in the void, various auspicious beast phantoms manifested, and celestial light flowed hazily.

Many cultivators felt as if they had transcended just by looking at it.

When Jun Xiaoyao arrived, he also sensed a profound Dao rhythm.

However, at the same time, the Heavenly Dao Tower released a faint pressure.

The Grand Elder spoke, "Everyone, this time the Heavenly Dao Tower will be presided over by me. The Heavenly Dao Tower will autonomously emit pressure; those with insufficient cultivation and lacking opportunities will not be able to enter."

Upon hearing this, many young cultivators turned pale.

So it turned out that lacking talent meant they wouldn't even qualify to participate in the trials?

"I'll go first." The Golden-Winged Roc King directly spread his wings and flew out.

With his personality, he was always the first to charge ahead, no matter what he did.

This time, he also wanted to prove himself; he was not weaker than Jun Xiaoyao!

As soon as the Golden-Winged Roc King approached within ten miles of the Heavenly Dao Tower, he found himself unable to fly in the air.

That pressure was not to be underestimated.

The Golden-Winged Roc King began to focus on comprehending.

Suddenly, behind him, it seemed as if a golden giant roc soared into the sky, carrying a rhythm of the Dao.

"There's such an effect!" Many cultivators exclaimed in surprise.

"Great! I didn't expect this to be an opportunity, giving me insights for my future cultivation path," the Golden-Winged Roc King said with joy.

Now, many prodigies couldn't hold back and stepped forward.

Fa Hai walked over, and behind him, an ancient Buddha phantom appeared.

However, that ancient Buddha seemed to be shrouded in a layer of blood light, giving off an ominous vibe.

"Eh, that little Western Heaven Buddha…" The Grand Elder looked surprised.

In addition, Ye Xingyun, Wu Mingyue, and Jun Lingcang also took action.

Each of them exhibited astonishing phenomena.

Especially Jun Lingcang, who seemed to have a supreme being with multiple eyes standing behind him, whose gaze opened and closed, reopening chaos.

Ye Xingyun was equally astonishing.

Behind him, a terrifying figure draped in the sun, moon, and stars seemed to manifest.

The aura of that phenomenon was not weaker than Jun Lingcang's.

"Why does the Star King Body of the Ye Family have such a powerful aura?" Some cultivators noticed and were quite astonished.

"Hmm? There's something strange about Ye Xingyun…" Jun Xiaoyao's gaze deepened.

Seeing the phenomenon that Ye Xingyun revealed, Jun Xiaoyao felt that he might be a person with great fortune, similar to Xiao Chen and Yang Pan.

"Could it be a strong person reincarnated, a supreme being reborn?" Jun Xiaoyao speculated.

If utilized well, he might be able to reap another wave from Ye Xingyun.

Many cultivators around were also paying attention to Jun Xiaoyao.

What kind of extraordinary phenomenon would this prodigy with such monstrous talent reveal?

However, just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to step forward, a white lotus floated over from a distance, with a hazy figure in green robes seated upon it, exuding an otherworldly, ethereal aura like a celestial maiden.

"That is… the Ji Family's Divine Maiden!" A voice of surprise rang out.

Many people turned to look at Jun Xiaoyao.

Due to Ji Xuan, Jun Xiaoyao had a conflict with the Ji Family.

Now that the Ji Family's Divine Maiden had appeared, what kind of sparks would fly between her and the Jun Family Divine Son?

Many were eagerly anticipating.
