As Zhong Si thought of how he had thought of taking revenge on the people in box number nine, he broke out in a cold sweat and didn't stop for a long time.
"Fourth Master, we should be glad that we haven't done anything to them yet … otherwise, not just us, but our entire Zhong Family would have been dragged into this mess!"
The old man standing behind Zhong Si was also a member of the Zhong Family.
"Yes … I didn't think they would be so terrifying."
Zhong Si wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead. Because of fear, his voice was trembling.
"But … Fourth Master, only two of them left. There was a young man who didn't leave? That young man was very intimate with the 'young miss' that the beautiful woman spoke of. That young miss was even holding the young man's hand. "
The old man was puzzled.
"Let's go! Let's go pay a visit to that young master! "
Hearing the old man's words, Zhong Si's eyes brightened. He wanted to go to box number nine and pay a visit to the young man who had bid on the first item of today's auction.
However, before he did, the people from the other four Divine Emperor forces also reacted one step ahead of him and went to the ninth box.
This was because after the two women left and sat down, they remembered that there wasn't just the two women in box number nine. There was also a young man with a young voice.
But when they reacted and went to box number nine, they found that there was no one inside.
"Could it be that the young man's voice was also faked by one of the two women?"
Although some people guessed this, most people didn't think it was possible. Because the two women didn't need to kneel down to be recognized by their voices.
In particular, they soon found out from the Zhou Clan's people in charge of this auction that there was indeed a young guest in box number nine.
But that young guest had left first.
"If we had reacted faster, we might have been able to see that young master."
The Hidden Fog Sect's Vice Sect Master, who was also the Dean of Hidden Fog Academy, Murong Suifeng, let out a long sigh.
The leaders of the other three God Emperor level forces also had looks of regret.
Although they didn't know the specific identity of that young man, they heard from the people of the Zhou Family auction that the young miss of the God Emperor level powerhouse was very intimate with the young man and even called him 'big brother'.
It was clear that the young man's identity was also extraordinary.
He might even have a higher status in the God Emperor level force!
…
Duan Lingtian did not know that after he left the Zhou Family Auction House, many people went to Box 9 to look for him.
After he left the Zhou Clan's auction, he returned to the inn directly.
This was because the inn he had chosen was an inconspicuous one in Wind City. The organisation it belonged to was only a small clan that was attached to a Godking clan. As a result, no one discovered him.
After the Zhou Family's auction ended, the Zhou Family and Zhong Family went to their subordinate inns and the other God King level clans' subordinate inns to inquire about Duan Lingtian.
However, Duan Lingtian did not have many God King level subordinates staying in the inn. Therefore, even though they wanted to find Duan Lingtian, they could not find him.
In the end, they could only give up.
It was impossible for them to imagine that the young man they were looking for was only staying in a small inn in Tianfeng City.
Naturally, the reason Duan Lingtian chose this inn was that he felt the environment was not bad. Moreover, it was located in a secluded area that was suitable for him to cultivate.
He was unaware that the Zhou Family and Zhong Family were looking for him.
After returning to the inn, Duan Lingtian consumed the Three Divine Pill and prepared to break through to the Intermediate Deity stage. There was still half a month before the Hidden Fog Academy's recruitment.
Half a month was enough for him to make a breakthrough.
'An Intermediate Deity who's not even 2,700 years old … Even if I ignore my comprehension of profundities, my cultivation base alone is enough to set me apart in the Hidden Fog Academy, right?'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
In the Realms of Gods, those who were not even 3,000 years old were considered very young.
In those god-emperor-level forces, there might even be higher deities or God Kings, let alone middle deities who were younger than three thousand years old … However, in Tianfeng City and the small places around it, it was extremely rare to find a middle deity who was younger than three thousand years old. It was enough to cause a certain amount of commotion.
The reason why it was called a stir rather than a huge one was because Intermediate Deities under 3,000 years old had appeared in the areas around Tianfeng City before. It was just that they were relatively rare.
For example, in the current generation of the Hidden Fog Academy, there was a 10-star student who was less than 3,000 years old who had yet to graduate.
That student was accepted as a personal disciple by one of the higher-ups of the Hidden Fog Sect before he even graduated. In the future, when he entered the Hidden Fog Sect, he would be directly accepted as a disciple of that higher-up.
Of course, Duan Lingtian did not know this.
This was because even in Tianfeng City, no one knew that the Hidden Fog Academy had produced such a genius student.
That genius student had only recently broken through to the Intermediate Deity stage.
…
While Duan Lingtian was cultivating in seclusion, Tianfeng City was also very lively.
The focus of everyone's discussion was the Zhou Clan's auction two days ago. "Have you heard? A God Emperor expert actually appeared in the Zhou Clan's auction two days ago! "
"I heard. It's said that the God Emperor expert is a beautiful woman. Beside her is a young lady whom she calls Miss. Her status is obviously higher than her."
"To have a God Emperor expert as a follower … Even the daughter of the Sect Master of the Hidden Fog Sect, the strongest God Emperor level faction near Tianfeng City, doesn't receive such treatment, right?"
"It's not hard to guess … That young lady is at least from a peak God Emperor level faction. She might even be from a God Emperor level faction!"
"I heard that the young lady has an elder brother who didn't leave with her at that time … Who knows, he might still be in Tianfeng City."
"Is that true? If I meet the young lady's elder brother and befriend him, won't I be able to reach the sky in a single bound? "
…
Most of the topics revolved around Duan Qiaoyu and Yu Qiuxuan. Duan Lingtian was also frequently mentioned. Even in the inn where Duan Lingtian was staying, there were many people discussing this topic.
Of course, Duan Lingtian, who was in seclusion, was completely unaware of this.
Apart from this topic, there were more topics that revolved around the Ten Thousand Demon Sect's second elder, Han Ligang. "I heard that the Ten Thousand Demon Sect's second elder, Han Ligang, knelt down and kowtowed at the Zhou Clan's auction … The second elder of a God Emperor level sect, a Higher God, is actually so cowardly. What a joke!"
"Tch! You're just saying … If you were him, would you go against that God Emperor expert? Do you think that dignity is more important than your life? "
"I think that the Ten Thousand Demon Sect's second elder, Han Ligang, is a smart person. He knows when to yield and when to stand tall … It's not worth it for a Higher God King to lose his life over such a small matter."
"I think so too."
…
Although the Ten Thousand Demon Sect's second elder, Han Ligang's performance at the Zhou Clan's auction was disgraceful, most people in Skywind City could understand him.
As the days passed, the topics related to the Zhou Clan's auction gradually decreased.
At this time, as the day of the Hidden Mist Academy's recruitment approached, more people began to talk about the Hidden Mist Academy. "I heard that many of the God King level families' disciples are participating in the Hidden Mist Academy's recruitment this year."
"When have the disciples of the God King level families not participated in the recruitment? It's just that very few of them were accepted. "
"This year, that kid from my family is also preparing to participate in the Hidden Mist Academy's recruitment test … I don't expect him to be accepted, I just hope that he won't embarrass himself too much."
"The Hidden Mist Academy's recruitment last year seemed to have over a thousand people participating … but in the end, only seven people were accepted."
"I'm afraid it will be the same this year."
…
The Hidden Mist Academy was the most transcendent existence in Skywind City. This was because it was an academy established by a God Emperor level force, the Hidden Mist Sect. Those who performed well in the academy could even use it as a springboard to enter the Hidden Mist Sect.
Many of the God King level families in Skywind City had entered the Hidden Mist Academy and even joined the Hidden Mist Sect.
A small number of them even had a certain status in the Hidden Mist Sect.
The God King level families in Skywind City didn't dare to neglect the Hidden Mist Academy's recruitment test. This was because once their family members fell into a disadvantage in the Hidden Mist Sect, it would be a great blow to their family.
For example, if a disciple of the Zhou Clan became an Elder with a prominent status in the Hidden Mist Sect.
As for the Zhong Clan disciple, even if he did the best in the Hidden Mist Sect, he wouldn't be able to become an Elder.
In this case, the Zhou Clan could completely suppress the Zhong Clan. Over time, it wouldn't be difficult for the Zhou Clan to destroy the Zhong Clan.
The Hidden Mist Sect wasn't the strongest God Emperor level force around Skywind City because there were many God Emperor level forces that weren't weaker than them. However, they were the closest God Emperor level force to Skywind City.
Because of this, Skywind City was basically under their control.
This could be seen from the existence of the Hidden Mist Academy.
…
Half a month's time passed very quickly.
The tightly closed gates of the Hidden Mist Academy were officially opened in the early morning of this day.
Anyone with a bone age of less than 2800 years could enter the recruitment area of the Hidden Mist Academy after passing the bone age test.
Others weren't allowed to follow them in.
"Daughter, do your best. Strive for a good ranking. Even if you can't do it this year, you still have next year. As long as your ranking keeps rising, you will have hope of entering the Hidden Mist Academy."
In front of the gates of the Hidden Mist Academy, an old father was standing in front of his daughter, patiently guiding her.
"Son, if you can smoothly enter the Hidden Mist Academy, I can die in peace!"
"Long 'er, do your best."
…
When Duan Lingtian arrived at the gates of the Hidden Mist Academy, all he saw was the scene of seniors sending their juniors over. He couldn't help but recall the scene when he participated in the college entrance exam on Earth in his previous life.
He was an orphan. When he participated in the college entrance exam, he went alone.
At the school gates, he saw a group of students of the same age being sent over by their parents. Other than envy, there was only envy …
