Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start
Chapter 996 - 77: The Gathering of Monsters from the Ten Domains_2

```

The descendants of powerful forces, when they travel, naturally have extraordinary entourages following them. Only those with average backgrounds, like Gu Chen, would walk the world alone.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, but Old Zhao, who deceived Gu Chen, was confident that his eyes would not deceive him. This young man before him, he believed, definitely had no significant familial backing. Having deceived him, he had deceived him.

And indeed, with the opening of Qingyun Academy, many young people had come to Jitian City. By the end of the morning, Old Zhao had truly deceived quite a few.

With Gu Chen's hearing, he could not miss the discussions of those around him, let alone believe them.

Therefore, in response to Old Zhao's words, he just gave a faint smile and moved directly past him.

"Young man, this little brother, it's not too late to regret now. I can give you a discount..." Seeing Gu Chen decisively leaving, Old Zhao's face froze for a moment, but he still subconsciously shouted, unwilling to lose the deal.

But Gu Chen did not pay any heed and simply walked away, leaving the area.

Jitian City is vast, with many trading areas for cultivators to trade and obtain what they need for cultivation.

Of course, there are the genuine and the fake. How to discern them depends on one's own skills. There have been cases in history where people obtained treasures at very low prices in such places and then soared to great heights, becoming famous throughout the world.

Powerful cultivation techniques, amazing treasures and weapons—it can really be said that there is everything one could imagine, enough to dazzle onlookers.

"Little Divine Ability, a rare little divine ability for sale, cheap, cheap, only this time, miss it and it won't come again!"

Suddenly, a hawker's cry caught Gu Chen's attention.

"There are even Little Divine Abilities for sale?" Gu Chen was astonished, his gaze shifted, looking over.

Divine abilities are hard to find, only top sects like Da Sect, or sanctuaries, and even behemoth forces possess them.

In the higher realms, divine abilities are synonymous with tremendous power, exclusive to those at the Cave Heaven Realm and sovereign figures of the Earth realm. Even the most powerful prodigies and monsters would only have a slight hope of comprehending them at the Huanxu Realm.

It is exactly because divine abilities are so difficult to acquire that the so-called "Little Divine Abilities" came into existence.

Little Divine Abilities, one could say, are deconstructed or incomplete divine abilities, possessing only a small portion of the power of true divine abilities, but they are still extremely popular and pursued by countless people.

After all, true divine abilities are incredibly rare, and even if one obtains them, they are hard to comprehend. Although Little Divine Abilities are much less powerful compared to true divine abilities, they are still the favorite of many outstanding prodigies and powerful Earth realm cultivators, extremely popular.

And even if Little Divine Abilities are weaker, that's compared to divine abilities. Besides, they are still a part of true divine abilities and should not be underestimated in normal circumstances.

"It seems that this place is really not simple," Gu Chen murmured to himself.

As soon as the words Little Divine Ability were uttered, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people in this trading area, who swarmed the stall like bees, making it completely impenetrable.

"What are you standing around for, move out of the way!" Just then, a sudden cold shout sounded, reaching Gu Chen's ears.

He turned around to find a group of about a dozen people behind him, two of whom were riding rare spiritual horses, dressed extravagantly and with arrogant demeanors, and one of them was staring at him coldly.

The man and woman, at a glance, clearly came from extraordinary backgrounds. The cold shout had come from the man among them.

Gu Chen's expression remained calm, standing quietly on the spot. Seeing his response, the man's face sank as he shouted, "Are you deaf? Why don't you make way?"

With that, he tried to steer his spiritual horse to charge straight at Gu Chen.

"It's people from the Tuobu Clan, this guy's in big trouble now!"

"The second son of the Tuobu Clan and his younger sister are here. This young man's going to suffer undeserved misfortune!"

The commotion here also drew the attention of many in the trading area. The Tuobu siblings had heard about the Little Divine Ability and were planning to take a look. They happened to pass by and saw Gu Chen standing there. The man, being impatient and domineering, scolded him to give way.

And the Tuobu Clan was among the leading noble families in the East Profound Region, even stronger than some sanctuaries.

It was said that their ancient ancestor was very likely to take that step, becoming a new supreme great power.

```

Therefore, in recent years, the Tobu Clan's influence in the East Profound Region had grown increasingly formidable. Additionally, the clan's younger generation had produced three heroes, ensuring a bright future for the clan and bringing great comfort to the Tobu ancestors.

The two individuals, one male and one female, standing before us are two of the three heroes of the Tobu Clan's younger generation. They were here to participate in the Qingyun Academy's assessment.

The man who had rebuked Gu Chen was named Tobu Jun, twenty-nine years old and a cultivator of the Cave Heaven Realm—a truly extraordinary feat.

With Tobu Jun's overbearing nature flaring up, intending to commit violence in the street, the crowd suddenly panicked. To avoid collateral damage, they hastily retreated backward.

Gu Chen's eyes were deep and profound. Just as he was about to make a move, suddenly, from the Tobu Clan's crowd, Tobu Jun's younger sister, the beautiful woman, unexpectedly stopped her older brother.

"Second brother, let it go. Have you forgotten the teachings and specific instructions Father gave us before we left? It hasn't been long, and you've already cast them aside!" Tobu Jade frowned faintly.

Although she was not as renowned as Princess Xidie, she was also extremely beautiful, with an oval face, double eyelids, bright expressive eyes, and warm, jade-like skin. Truly, Tobu Jade lived up to her name.

"Hmph!"

Seeing his younger sister block him and bringing up their father, Tobu Jun couldn't help but snort coldly and stopped his actions.

Little did he know that it was because of Tobu Jade, Tobu Jun had, in fact, been saved from a dire fate.

The Qingyun Academy's admissions, opening once every ten thousand years, undeniably shook the surrounding ten regions. Countless unrivaled young talents gathered here today, aiming to pass the assessment and join the prestigious academy.

The two from the Tobu Clan were merely the projections among the many exceptional youngsters present.

"My apologies, sir. My second brother was just rude. Please don't take offense. On his behalf, I offer you my sincerest apologies," Tobu Jade spoke with a pleasing voice, her disposition far more amiable than her brother Tobu Jun.

Being away from home, especially during the opening of Qingyun Academy when powers from ten regions converged, they might cross paths with someone the Tobu Clan could not afford to offend or someone who could bring significant trouble. Hence, before they left, the patriarch of the Tobu Clan, who was also Tobu Jun and Tobu Jade's father, repeatedly warned them not to cause trouble.

Gu Chen heard this and merely glanced at the siblings before preparing to turn around and leave.

"Look over there!"

At that moment, exclamations rang out as extraordinary phenomena began to appear in the sky.

"That's... the prodigy of the Sun Divine Sparrow Clan, heading to Qingyun Academy!"

Not far away, the sky was ablaze with resplendent golden light, dazzlingly intense. Amidst the blazing sun, a humanoid creature made its way toward the heart of Jitian City.

He was the young lord of the Sun Divine Sparrow Clan, known as the strongest prodigy among his generation within a region, known throughout that realm, topping the regional charts, and dominating his domain!

"And there, that's a prodigy of the Azure Luan Clan!"

Elsewhere, a handsome man with long azure hair and surrounded by flickering spiritual light was also making his way toward the depths of Jitian City.

"The monster of the Taotie Clan has also appeared!"

The Taotie Clan, along with the earlier-mentioned Sun Divine Sparrow and Azure Luan Clans, ranked highly among the Ten Thousand Tribes of the upper realms, their strength immensely powerful, more formidable than even the four great exotic clans of the Gray Domain.

The clan's monster was a tall, broad-backed, fierce man, whose arms were as thick as the thighs of an adult, looking incredibly intimidating.

"The Bi An Clan, the prodigy of the Bi An Clan has also arrived!"

"Additionally, thunder fills the sky—that's the prodigy of the Kui Niu Clan!"

"The Hou Clan, the prodigy of the Hou Clan has also shown up!"

For a moment, the top monsters from various regions who had ascended the regional charts all appeared, heading toward the depths of Jitian City.

With the outstanding talents from ten regions emerging, the Qingyun Academy's assessment had not even begun, and the shocking upheavals were already starting to unfold!

The confrontation of the exceptional talents from the ten regions on the same stage was a thought that alone could make one's blood boil with excitement. It is uncertain what astonishing scenes would unfold once the assessment begins!
