"Don't even think about it!"
Ao Tu roared angrily, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Ao Tu had more than seventy percent of the True Dragon Bloodline. He had been the top talent of Sky Monster Valley since he was young. He was said to be able to compete with the Thearch God. There were very few people among the younger generation in Eastern Wilderness who could compete with him.
Although he was defeated by Lu Ming in the Battle of Providence, only Lu Ming and the Thearch God were stronger than him in the entire Eastern Wilderness. The only other people who could compete with him were Xue Jianyi and Feng Xuan. He was still a peerless talent with a bright halo.
However, when he came to Middle Continent, he was suppressed by a random young talent and wanted to capture him as a mount. At this moment, his confidence was severely damaged.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Beams of peerlessly sharp silver sword light sliced through the sky toward Ao Tu.
Even though Ao Tu had the True Dragon Bloodline, he was completely suppressed and torn apart by the terrifying sword Qi.
"Surrender and be my mount, and I won't kill you. Otherwise, you'll die today!"
Song Fei's cold voice came from the silver battle sword.
"Don't even think about it!"
Ao Tu shouted. Given his pride, he would rather die than be Song Fei's mount.
"Then die!"
The silver battle sword shone brightly and the sword Qi pierced through the air toward Ao Tu's head.
Ao Tu frantically retreated and blocked with all his might, but his head was almost chopped off. There was a deep wound on his neck. His body shrunk rapidly and escaped into the distance.
"Don't even think about leaving!"
Song Fei clearly had no intention of letting Ao Tu go. He chased after Ao Tu.
At this moment, a phoenix cry resounded. A divine bird that looked like a phoenix flew towards Song Fei. With a flap of its wings, a sky full of flames spread towards Song Fei. Song Fei was shocked. His Sword Qi whistled and cut through the flames. However, this delay allowed Ao Tu to rush into the distance and disappear without a trace.
The divine bird that looked like a phoenix was extremely fast. It flapped its wings and turned into a beam of light, rushing into the distance. Song Fei shouted angrily and chased after it. However, after a while, he failed to catch up.
Lu Ming could clearly see that the phoenix-like divine bird was Feng Xuan. She possessed the phoenix bloodline and was shockingly fast.
Song Fei returned to his human form and snorted coldly. "What Donghuang prodigy? You're just trash!"
After saying that, he flew back into the tavern with the other two disciples of the Celestial Martial Sword Sect and continued eating and drinking.
In the crowd, Xue Jian Yi and Shi Zhan were also watching the battle. Their faces turned ugly, but they didn't dare to make a sound.
Song Fei's battle prowess was shocking, and Xue Jian knew that he was not Song Fei's opponent.
"I didn't expect there to be so many geniuses in the Middle Continent. I heard that Song Fei is only the third-ranked genius of one of the factions, the Sky Martial Sword Faction!"
Shi Zhan sighed.
The battle just now had left him shaken.
"The Central Continent is indeed the center of the Divine Wilderness Continent. Geniuses are everywhere. In the Eastern Wilderness, only Lu Ming and the Emperor can defeat Song Fei!"
Blood Sword nodded and the two of them left.
Lu Ming didn't think much of it. He wasn't surprised by the outcome.
Ao Tu and Song Fei were third-grade prodigies, but Ao Tu was only average among third-grade prodigies, while Song Fei was at the top among third-grade prodigies. He was close to the second-grade prodigies, so Ao Tu naturally wasn't his match.
Lu Ming also returned to the tavern and continued eating and drinking. Soon, he learned some new news.
The reason so many prodigies had gathered in Tianxia City was that the World Academy's Jade Annulus would be opened in three days.
The World Academy's Jade Annulus was said to contain endless mysteries. Martial artists who comprehended it would obtain great opportunities and benefits.
It was even rumored that the All Things Jade Annulus contained a great secret and a divine treasury.
However, it hadn't been opened for many years.
The World Academy's Jade Annulus had always been closed to the public, but this time, it suddenly announced that it was open to the public. All the heroes of the world were free to visit and comprehend it.
Once the news was out, it naturally attracted a large number of sky-prides.
"The Jade Annulus? Since I'm here, I can't miss it! "
Lu Ming continued eating and drinking. The news he heard next wasn't too important. It was all about which prodigies were more powerful, which beauties were prettier, and so on.
After eating and drinking, Lu Ming walked out of the tavern and found an inn to stay in.
Three days passed quickly. Lu Ming left Tianxia City and rushed to the World Academy.
He wasn't the only one. Many prodigies stepped into the air and flew over. At a glance, the sky was filled with streaks of rainbow light, like a meteor shower.
The World Academy was very close to Tianxia City. Soon, they arrived.
"That's …"
Lu Ming was a little surprised when he saw it from afar.
A snow-white palace floated in the air, emitting dazzling rays of light.
The palace was extremely huge, like a city in the sky. It seemed to be completely made of jade.
This was the core of the World Academy. Below the palace, there was a divine mountain covered in clouds. The Spiritual Qi was dense, and spiritual herbs were everywhere. Spiritual beasts were flying around. It was like a fairyland.
The endless divine mountain below and the white jade palace in the sky were the complete World Academy.
However, only the core of the World Academy could enter the white jade palace. Lu Ming and the rest naturally couldn't enter. They landed outside the World Academy and walked along an ancient bluestone path.
Soon, they saw a huge stone tablet. There were four words written on the tablet: World Academy.
The words were bold and powerful. At first glance, there was a terrifying aura that spread out.
According to legend, these four words were left behind by a Sacred Emperor of the Ancient Saint Dynasty. They contained the Sacred Emperor's will.
Tens of thousands of years ago, when the Ancient Saint Dynasty hadn't declined and ruled the Eight Barren Region, the World Academy was a place for the Ancient Saint Dynasty to cultivate talents. Countless experts had walked out of the World Academy.
However, after the Ancient Saint Dynasty's Xie Family declined, the World Academy became independent and became an overlord force.
After passing by the stone tablet, there was a white jade staircase. The group climbed up the white jade staircase and arrived at a huge square.
At this time, the square was filled with people. At a glance, there were probably tens of thousands of people. They were all geniuses.
"Everyone, the Universal Jade Annulus is in front. Please follow me!"
A white-haired elder appeared and smiled. Then, he flew forward and the group followed.
After flying past dozens of mountains, the terrain in front of them leveled out. There were no mountains, only hills.
On the hills, there were clouds and mist, blocking the view. The group couldn't see through it.
"Array!"
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat.
According to legend, the World Academy was a force that cultivated both martial arts and inscriptions. There were experts who specialized in martial arts and also those who cultivated inscriptions.
There were also rumors that the World Academy had more than one Sacred Emperor. There were two of them.
One was a martial arts Sacred Emperor, and the other was an inscriptions Sacred Emperor.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Figures flashed and a total of eight elders appeared. Including the one who led the way, there were nine of them.
The nine elders floated in the air and started to inscribe inscriptions. The inscriptions disappeared into the surrounding space.
Hu hu …
