Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start
Chapter 1073 - 119: The Brilliant Era Has Arrived

Compared to geniuses like Yan Qi, who have claimed supremacy by reaching the peak of the Dao Gold List in their respective realms, these individuals who have joined the academy recently are entities almost listed on the Dao Gold List, commanding respect across several realms.

The latter are not beings of the same level, and it is fundamentally difficult to compare them.

Without mincing words, even Bai Yu's brother Bai Fei has a talent and strength that surpasses Yan Qi, Ao Guang, and the others.

Not to mention the likes of Bai Yu, who is invincible across eight regions.

The news of these prodigious demons joining Qingyun Academy indeed exploded across the peaceful academy, sparking endless discussions.

At the same time, everyone also wondered why these talents, instead of preparing for the imminent competition among the Ten Thousand Tribes across the three thousand six hundred realms, suddenly flocked to Qingyun Academy?

"Could it be for Chu Yue Ling, the saintess of Taoxu Road?" Suddenly, a student's face showed shock, thinking this.

After sharing this thought with a few friends nearby, they also became enlightened and agreed that this was the reason.

After all, strong as Qingyun Academy is, it is only renowned across ten realms, and to attract demonic beings like Bai Yu, who is invincible across eight realms and has the potential to be listed on the Dao Gold List, was still slightly less appealing.

Therefore, after much contemplation, everyone concluded that the joining of talents like Bai Yu was for Chu Yue Ling of Taoxu Road, seeking a closer relationship.

Only these demons knew in their hearts that besides Chu Yue Ling, Xidie, the princess of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty, was another reason for them joining Qingyun Academy.

Of course, there was another important reason: to become the heir to Qingyun Academy or Azure Cloud Sky.

As one of the foremost worlds in the many heavens and earths of the past era, where the strongest could even be compared to the Ice Emperor, even though it later shattered, the inheritance treasures left behind still made countless hearts flutter.

It was precisely after learning this news, in addition to the presence of Chu Yue Ling and Princess Xidie, that Bai Yu and several other demonic beings chose to join Qingyun Academy at this juncture.

"It seems there will be no shortage of competitors," Bai Yu commented with a slight frown upon learning this news.

"Brother, I believe that no matter who you face, you will certainly be the strongest!" Bai Fei said with unwavering confidence by his side.

He always believed that his brother could suppress any enemy.

At that moment, recalling his experience in Canglei Ancient Ruins, Bai Fei's expression darkened as he said, "It was rumored in the East Profound Region that this Gu Bai had the strength to suppress you, Brother. This time at Qingyun Academy, he must be made to look good!"

With pristine white wings on his back, Bai Yu lightly shook his head and said, "I will not make a move against him."

At these words, Bai Fei was taken aback and asked incomprehensibly, "Brother, why is that? Don't you want to clear your name?"

"Why should I clear my own name?" Bai Yu countered quietly, his face expressionless. "Now, I have reached the pinnacle of the God Transformation Realm, my soul's height has grown to five inches, and after absorbing the Mysterious Yellow Qi and various extraordinary items from my clan, my physical strength has greatly increased, even doubled. This gives me the confidence to undergo a body reconstitution before stepping into the Unity Realm. What can that Gu Bai compare with me?"

The Tian Yu Clan is one of the hundred strongest clans in the higher realms, and Bai Yu, an invincible entity across eight realms with the potential to be listed on the Dao Gold List, has been informed by his clan about the divisions of the realms for both the physical body and the soul. He is anticipated to walk this path.

At this moment, Bai Yu looked indifferently and turned his gaze toward the sky, saying, "Now, Gu Bai is not even in a position to be compared with me, and I certainly won't consider him. To fight him to prove myself? That would only make me a joke. There's absolutely no need for that."

"This time, my true goal is to become the heir to Qingyun Academy, and also to get closer to Chu Yue Ling, the saintess of Taoxu Road, and Princess Xidie of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty. And the only ones who could be my opponents are just those few people," said Bai Yu, his eyes looking deeply into the vast world.

And the opponents he referred to were naturally those prodigious demons who had recently joined Qingyun Academy, closely following behind him.

As for Gu Chen, in Bai Yu's view, with his current strength, he was already unable to compete with him, and even the mention of Gu Chen's name carried evident disdain.

Upon hearing these words, Bai Fei immediately became excited, nodding emphatically and saying, "I was too short-sighted; that Gu Bai indeed does not deserve to be your opponent, Brother."

"It doesn't matter," Bai Yu said with a gentle shake of his head, advising his brother, "You have a long way to go, remember, always look further ahead. Don't waste your time staring at a bunch of weaklings; that will only hold you back. Always look toward stronger people, for they are your true goal."

"Yes!" Bai Fei responded, his face solemn.

But then he added, "However, Brother, Gu Bai was disrespectful to you, and who knows, he might still be complacent about his past achievements. I won't allow the world to have any misgivings about you. If an opportunity arises, I will punish him severely and let that Gu Bai understand who the real genius is."

Bai Fei's words were cold, clearly, he had not forgotten the events of Canglei Ancient Ruins, and every time he thought of Gu Chen, he itched with hatred.

Bai Yu glanced at his brother, aware of his small temperament and considering Bai Fei's advancement to the mid-stage of the God Transformation Realm, did not take it to heart. He nonchalantly said, "These are all not problems, remember, when you strike, don't be too ruthless, Qingyun Academy does not condone killing."

Upon hearing this, Bai Fei smiled coldly, his teeth snow-white and his eyes glinting frostily as he said, "Don't worry, Brother, I know what to do."

...

On the other hand, the recent influx of extraordinary talents had indeed surprised the higher-ups of Qingyun Academy.

Yet, they were all Great Powers in the heaven realm and leading figures, their minds incredibly astute, instantly guessing the true intentions of these talents.

"Looks like they are eyeing the academy's inheritance," one of the Great Powers spoke.

```

Whether it is the Tian Yu Clan behind the invincible Bai Yu from the Eight Regions, or the forces behind several other prodigies, they are all very powerful, far surpassing the likes of the Sun God Que and the Kui Niu Clan. Naturally, they also have some understanding of the significance of Qingyun Academy's existence.

Furthermore, this time the disturbance in the forbidden area of living beings has revealed the enough strength of the dean of Qingyun Academy, who would certainly rank among the top even when placed among the strongest in the upper realm.

Even, if this dean took that one step, the entire pattern of the upper realm would change because of it.

Such a figure is naturally worth making connections with by various powers, not to mention the presence of Taoxu Road's Holy Maiden and Holy Brilliance Dynasty's Princess Xidie.

For a variety of reasons combined, it led to the subsequent inclusion of Bai Yu and several other such extraordinary talents.

"This is also a good thing, giving us more options, after all, this may be the last chance, we must find a suitable successor," spoke an elder with white hair.

If they could not find a truly fitting heir for the Azure Cloud Sky, even if these people fell in the future, they would die with their eyes open.

Indeed, this was also the greatest meaning of their survival until now.

"That's right, the likes of Bai Yu from the Tian Yu Clan, Tang Yu from Misty Palace, Su Yiqing from the Hao Tian Sect, Qu Ping from the Wonderful Law Hall, as well as Shi Yao from the Green-eyed Golden Lion Clan, these individuals are all top-notch rare talents. Each possesses the potential to rank amongst the Dao Gold List, stronger by far than academy's own Yan Qi and Ao Guang, and thus most suitable if choosing a successor," another individual of Great Powers stature spoke up.

Just as the high-ranking officials were about to nod their agreement, a voice rang out, expressing a differing opinion.

"I think Gu Bai is actually pretty suitable," said the speaker, who was none other than the Great Power with the surname Cui, previously responsible for escorting Gu Chen and others to the Canglei Ancient Ruins. His real name was Cui Ji.

"Although Gu Bai's talent is not bad, he may not necessarily be stronger than Bai Yu and the others. After all, those five youths truly stand above many realms, and with dedicated cultivation for a while longer, their likelihood of ascending the Dao Gold List is extremely high."

"Indeed, when it comes to combat achievements, Bai Yu and Tang Yu are indeed a notch stronger," said two Great Powers from the heaven realm.

Cui Ji wasn't angry, as everyone was speaking for the good of Qingyun Academy and simply discussing the matter at hand. He too simply expressed his opinion and nodded lightly upon hearing what the others had to say.

However, in his heart, he was more optimistic about Gu Chen. He felt that this young man had an indescribable feeling about him, always so calm and breezy, as if he had never exerted his full strength.

But he did not speak these thoughts aloud because at their level, what mattered more was actual combat achievements, especially for a matter of such gravity.

"Let's observe a bit longer, no matter what, although Gu Bai's strength seems to be slightly inferior at present, his temperament may be the closest to what the dean hopes for."

At this point, Cui Ji spoke up, "In this epoch, heroes of the upper realm have emerged one after another, a myriad of extraordinary beings not in the least, far surpassing the ancient, remote ancient and even prehistoric eras. It seems to be presaging something. We should also be ready to respond accordingly."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other Great Powers also nodded their heads in agreement, their expressions becoming somewhat solemn.

The emergence of one exceptional hero after another seemed as though some existence was intervening, striving to actively push the upper realm into an era of unprecedented prosperity.

"The splendid great era has arrived. How similar is this scene to the last period of the great epoch? It's as if the heavens have sensed something, wanting to help us through the calamity, yet brilliance is sure to be accompanied by countless blood and tears, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the disaster of the common people. This will be the future landscape, the upper realm is bound to be bloodied and adrift," spoke a titan of the academy, his voice somewhat somber.

At his level, he naturally knew more than the Great Powers of the heaven realm.

Upon hearing this, all the high-level officials of the academy fell silent. The arrival of the grand era was undoubted, but an endless calamity was also impending.

In the last period of the previous great epoch, the Ice Emperor and others faced such a catastrophe. This time, it would be the entire upper realm's turn. Could they truly withstand it?

The answer to that, in truth, they already had a rough idea in their hearts.

But the future is ever-changing, and the emergence of so many heroes and prodigies, far surpassing previous ones, also added uncertainty to the imminent battle for supremacy among the Ten Thousand Tribes across the Three Thousand Six Hundred Realms of the upper realm.

It could even be said that for this reason, the attention to this battle reached an incredibly high peak, to an unprecedented degree!

The collision of endless prodigies might truly bring about some miracle.

Some supreme beings divined that this was indeed hinted at by the subtle workings of fate.

"Regardless, that is all something to be considered later, not something for us to dwell upon now. The most important thing at the moment is to find a suitable successor for the Azure Cloud Sky," spoke up a titan of the academy once again, after a lengthy pause.

The struggle among Bai Yu and the others would all be observed by these upper echelons, and in the end, the most suitable one would be selected and presented to the dean of Qingyun Academy for final decision.

Each time this topic was mentioned, even the titans of the academy couldn't help but regret Taoxu Road's Holy Maiden Chu Yue Ling's rejection.

To find another with both talent and strength so exceptional, so rare in the upper realm, and with a temperament that so closely matched, the academy's high officials all thought it impossible.

Therefore, they often sighed with regret, feeling sorry about it.

But fortunately, this time the academy saw the emergence of Bai Yu and others, giving them a few more options.

At the same time, they were also curious, in the eyes of that supreme being, the dean of Qingyun Academy, among so many talented prodigies, who would stand out?
