A Monster
The team of eight standing guard outside the ascension pool stared at Ye Zichen in shock, as if he were a rare animal waiting to be studied. Ye Zichen couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.
Ye Zichen gulped, then glanced at the group of uniformed people.
"Is there something strange about it?"
"Where did everyone else go?" asked one of the team members.
Ye Zichen was a bit taken aback by the question. He hadn't seen anyone else since arriving.
"There's no one else. It's just me."
"Just you? How is that possible? "
The youth who'd just questioned Ye Zichen raised his voice by several dozen decibels. The only woman in the team looked around the pool, then turned to the others and shook her head.
Everyone else in the team was dumbfounded!
How was that possible?
Judging from the amount of mist in the Ascension Pond, it meant that there were at least a few dozen Earth Sovereigns in the Ascension Pond.
Ye Zichen was the only one in the pool. Could there be a problem with the pool?
Everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief. When they looked at each other, they could see the astonishment in each other's eyes.
"Baihui, come back."
After a while, the slightly older, middle-aged man called her back, then cupped his fists and smiled at Ye Zichen.
"Congratulations on ascending the Divine Mountains, brother."
The others cupped their fists and congratulated Ye Zichen.
What the hell was this?
Although Ye Zichen didn't quite understand what was going on, since they were all congratulating him, he had no choice but to return the gesture.
"Brother, you can leave the ascension pool now."
When he heard that, Ye Zichen walked out of the ascension pool. When he emerged, he could sense the others peeking at him, their gazes unreadable.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Huang Yang, and I'm the captain of this team. The one who spoke to you is Fan Li, and this woman is Liu Baihui. She's also our team beauty. As for the others, I won't introduce them one by one. In any case, we won't have a chance to meet again. If we do, we can introduce each other then. "
The slightly longer middle-aged man in the team said with a faint smile.
"Our mission as a team of eight is to receive the Supremes who have ascended from the Lower Divine Mountains. We rotate once every hundred years. You've come at the right time. If you were any later, we would have rotated out, and you would have been received by another team."
Ye Zichen gained a rough understanding of them. Before he could introduce them, a golden document suddenly fell from the sky. Liu Baihui leaped up and grabbed the document, then looked it up and down a few times before pointing at Ye Zichen with wide eyes and exclaiming, "It's Ye Zichen!
"Wow! You … "
"What happened? What happened?"
Fan Li and the others also came forward and said what was written on the document.
"Ascender Ye Zichen, born at 14: 00 of the 17th of August, Calendar of Zhou Wudi 47832. Third-stage Heavenly Supreme in the Soul Realm, seventh-stage Heavenly Supreme in the Origin Realm. Absolute talent. "
"Really?"
"Wow!"
Everyone else had exaggerated expressions on their faces. Even Huang Yang's eyebrows twitched. However, when he wanted to take a closer look, the document had already melted into a crystal card.
"We actually managed to get in touch with a monster like that?"
Ye Zichen's expression was blank as he probed, "Well …."
"Genius, let me reintroduce myself.
My name is Fan Li. I've been on the Divine Mountains for about three hundred years. If you're lucky enough to enter Skyspan Academy, you can call me 'Senior Brother.' "
Fan Li was a skinny young man. His excitement could be seen from his eyes, and he gripped Ye Zichen's hand tightly without letting go.
"Well …. I …. I'm Liu Baihui. I've been on the Divine Mountains for a hundred years."
"And me …."
"I …."
What was going on now?
This sort of warmth made Ye Zichen feel a bit uneasy, but he was more concerned about the document. Why had it written all of his information? It even listed his cultivation level.
"All of you, back off. What are you doing?"
Fortunately, Huang Yang furrowed his brows and shouted. Only then did they back away from Ye Zichen. Who would've thought ….
"Brother Ye, I'm Huang Yang. I've been on the Divine Mountains for a thousand years, and I'm currently a ninth-stage earth supreme. I'm on the verge of breaking through to the sky supreme level. I know that with your talent, you'll definitely become a dragon among men. If you can remember us, that would be our blessing. "
"Um …." Ye Zichen's smile stiffened. "Can we talk things out?"
"No problem."
Huang Yang let go of Ye Zichen's hand, retreated half a meter, and looked at Ye Zichen with a friendly smile.
Although the gazes still made Ye Zichen uncomfortable, at least they'd given him a comfortable distance.
Ye Zichen let out a sigh, then spoke up.
"To tell you the truth, you left me in a daze just now."
"We were too rash," said Huang Yang sternly. Huang Yang said sternly, "Actually, before Brother Ye landed in the Ascension Pool, we made a bet on the number of ascenders in the pool. Based on the density of the clouds, we judged there to be around twenty, but Brother Ye appeared on your own, which surprised us. But now that the decree has descended, and the higher-ups have judged Brother Ye's talent to be peerless, everything makes sense now. "
The others nodded in agreement.
"Then I'm a bit curious. How did that decree appear just now?" asked Ye Zichen in confusion.
If an ordinary person had asked, the team outside the Ascension Pond would've given them an explanation. All they had to do was to contact the ascenders and briefly explain the situation of the Divine Mountains to them. Anything else wasn't their job.
But Ye Zichen was different. He was a peerless monster!
"How the decree appeared on the Divine Mountains is a mystery as well. No one knows where it came from, but every time an ascender appears, a decree descends. In the end, the decree condenses into a crystal card, which contains all of the ascender's information."
While Huang Yang was explaining, Liu Baihui handed over her crystal card. There seemed to be a note under the crystal card.
This kind of small action naturally fell into the eyes of the others, but no one made too much of a fuss.
The way they saw it, there was nothing strange about Liu Baihui's actions. She was a peerless monster, after all. Who wouldn't want to get involved with her?
"Is this a way to contact me?"
Ye Zichen glanced at the dense handwriting on the slip of paper, then smiled politely, not at all embarrassed. He put the slip of paper into his pocket, then looked at the crystal card.
The crystal card was light blue, and Ye Zichen's basic information was written on it.
"Brother Ye, you've probably noticed by now that the crystal card is made of a special material. Even rulers can't destroy it. Only with this card can you enter the God Realm. Without it, you'll be considered an outsider. Brother Ye, you have to take good care of this crystal card. "
Huang Yang's gaze was solemn as he explained the card's importance. Ye Zichen, on the other hand, had a simple definition for it.
