Soul Emperor Martial God

There is no good or bad, only whether it's suitable or not.

A group of Heavenly Talents pondered for a moment and made their choice.

"I want the reward."

"Me too."

Almost half of the Heavenly Talents chose the reward, a large amount of Cultivation Items inside the Qiankun Bag.

After a while, a few minutes later.

The remaining half of the Heavenly Talents also chose the reward.

Only Xiao Yi, after some thought, pointed to the text in front of him and asked, "May I ask how strong is this Senior's Sword Dao level?"

The text floating in front of him arranged itself into lines.

Each line was an introduction to a Senior.

Xiao Yi was currently pointing at the second line's Senior.

Cloud Abyss Sword, one hour.

These introductions were extremely brief.

Besides the title of the Senior, there was only the time left.

As this Senior was titled with a sword name, they must be a Sword Dao Expert.

At this moment, the Vice Dean, having heard this, glanced at what Xiao Yi was pointing at and nodded, "Cloud Abyss Sword."

"How strong is he?" The Vice Dean smiled playfully and glanced at the sky.

The dense Black Clouds hanging high above Black Cloud Academy were terrifyingly eerie.

Soft rumbles of thunder seemed to echo within them.

The Vice Dean withdrew his gaze and looked at Xiao Yi, "Boy, when your level is a bit higher in the future, you'll know the renown of the words 'Cloud Abyss Sword' in the Central Region."

"He is the strongest Sword Dao Practitioner in our Black Cloud Academy; you may address him as Elder Yun Yuan or Senior Yun Yuan."

"The strongest Sword Dao Practitioner in the Academy?" Xiao Yi pondered.

He continued to read along the lines of text.

They were titles of Academic Elders and Deacons, along with their times.

"Does this description of time, one hour, represent the time for guidance?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Correct." The Vice Dean nodded, "The Martial Arts Teachers within the Academy are always in seclusion throughout the year."

"Therefore, their time to guide you is very limited."

"Unlike other academic palaces, in our Black Cloud Academy, if you want guidance from Martial Arts Elders, you can only earn it by accumulating Academy Task Points."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Martial Arts Experts indeed need to frequently seclude themselves.

Especially those with profound Cultivation, the Great Powers, who are almost constantly in seclusion.

The Martial Arts Levels they have reached are unfathomable, and gaining even a single insight into Martial Arts takes an immense amount of time.

Xiao Yi noticed that as he followed the descriptions lined up, the time kept increasing.

Except for the second line's Senior Yun Yuan being one hour, the third line's Elder was marked as two hours.

At the end, a regular Academic Teaching Deacon was marked as three days.

Xiao Yi pondered.

The Vice Dean smiled, "How you choose is up to you."

"Two kinds of rewards: either a large amount of Cultivation Items or consulting Martial Arts Elders. The choice is yours."

"And on this Floating Trace Scroll with various Martial Arts Elders, it's your decision who to choose."

The Floating Trace Scroll was the document from which the Vice Dean floated out the text.

Judging by its aura, it appeared to be a Holy Artifact, but Xiao Yi didn't know its tier.

"I choose Senior Yun Yuan." Xiao Yi furrowed his brow and then said to the Vice Dean.

In fact, he felt a bit heartbroken.

After all, for the past half month, he had almost been without rest, constantly completing Academy tasks.

The total of 110 tasks he completed could almost equal the sum of other Heavenly Talents' rewards.

Moreover, the guidance time was only one hour.

He was unsure of the strength of the Sword Dao Seniors within the Academy.

However, since the main reason for joining the Academy was to resolve his Martial Arts doubts, he had no choice but to choose this.

Suddenly, several Heavenly Talents around him frowned, "One hour? Where did one hour come from?"

"Why is it that on mine it's only ten minutes?"

Xiao Yi looked questioningly at these Heavenly Talents.

The Vice Dean chuckled lightly, "The Floating Trace Scroll is a Treasure of our Black Cloud Academy."

"Besides recording the details of Martial Arts Elders, it also corresponds with your information."

"The Task Points each of you possess determine how long you can consult this Martial Arts Elder."

"I see." Xiao Yi understood upon hearing this.

The other Heavenly Talents had far fewer Task Points than himself, hence the much shorter time they saw.

However, was it really the case that the other Heavenly Talents only had ten minutes?

Xiao Yi pondered.

"Alright." The Vice Dean waved his hand, addressing the other Heavenly Talents, "Those who have chosen rewards, go to Hui Deacon's Office to register and receive your rewards."

"Within the Academy, your accommodations have already been arranged."

"The Black Cloud Jade Pendant represents your status as Academic Disciples."

"With this pendant, you can access places like the seclusion room and Martial Arts Storage Room within the Academy."

"Those who need to go into seclusion, do so. Those who need insights, pursue them. Those who need training, embark on it. Go on."

"Understood." The group of Heavenly Talents nodded and headed towards Hui Deacon.

The Vice Dean then looked at Xiao Yi and said, "Boy, come with me."

Xiao Yi nodded.

The two walked side by side.

After a while, the two reached a side of the Academy's square.

"Boy, you wait here." The Vice Dean said, then casually stood waiting nearby.

"I've already informed Senior Yun Yuan through the Floating Trace Scroll; he should be here in about an hour."

"Isn't Senior Yun Yuan in the Academy?" Xiao Yi was slightly taken aback.

"He is." The Vice Dean replied irritably, "But he's in seclusion. Do you think he can come just because you ask?"

"I see." Xiao Yi smiled and nodded.

After a while, the two waited in silence.

The Vice Dean frowned at Xiao Yi, speaking first, "Boy, don't you like to talk?"

"It's not that I don't like it, I just don't know what to say." Xiao Yi replied with a wry smile.

The Vice Dean shrugged, "Perhaps you could ask me about Senior Yun Yuan's strength."

"Aren't you curious about the Senior whom you've used a large amount of Cultivation Items reward to get one hour of guidance from, and what level they are?"

"Yes, I'm curious." Xiao Yi nodded.

"Haha." The Vice Dean smiled and said, "Boy, didn't you ask me if there's anyone in Black Cloud Academy stronger than Heavenly Hidden Academy's Deacon Elders?"

"Back then, I told you there was."

"Is Senior Yun Yuan the one?" Xiao Yi asked curiously.

"Yes." The Vice Dean nodded, "Back then, he once fought with a Heavenly Sword Peak Elder, and well, barely won a few moves."

"Barely won a few moves?" Xiao Yi's face showed shock.

"Why haven't I heard of this?" Xiao Yi looked at the Vice Dean in puzzlement.

A Heavenly Sword Peak Elder is a well-known Sword Dao Great Power in the Central Region.

The battle of such a Great Power should have been spread throughout the Central Region.

"Because your level is too low." The Vice Dean smiled playfully.

"I've forgotten when exactly it was, maybe ten or so years ago. In any case, it was a battle within a grand event for you Sword Dao Practitioners."

"In time, when your level is higher, perhaps you'll also be part of this grand event."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Suddenly, Xiao Yi seemed to recall something and asked, "In Heavenly Hidden Academy, are there Seniors stronger than the Twelve Peak Elders?"

"That..." The Vice Dean hesitated for a moment and then smiled, "Boy, I know what you want to ask."

"There are indeed some reclusive Old Monsters in the Heavenly Hidden Academy whose Cultivation and strength surpass the Twelve Peak Elders."

"In terms of foundation, we at Black Cloud Academy indeed can't compare to the Heavenly Hidden Academy."

"But when it comes to individual teachings, no one in the Heavenly Hidden Academy is better than anyone at Black Cloud Academy."

The Vice Dean's face was full of confidence as he spoke about not being inferior to anyone in the Heavenly Hidden Academy in teaching disciples.
