The Revelation of Heaven Revelation and the armillary sphere were naturally paying attention to Xiao Hua. Previously, Xiao Hua's performance was mediocre, and some geniuses had even begun drawing Inscriptions, preparing to enter the second level of the Heaven and Earth Pagoda. Xiao Hua was still staring at the four posts in a daze.
The armillary sphere even whispered to the Revelation of Heaven Revelation, "Old Man Zhaoming, Xiao Hua looks like he's in trouble!"
"Yes, indeed."
The Revelation of Heaven Revelation was someone who had read countless people. He nodded and said, "Xiao Hua's forte is his physical body and his knowledge of the Primordial Chaos. These are not important in the Sage Selection, and they are even hindrances. Furthermore, even if Xiao Hua engraved 132 million Earth Flowers, even if he engraved ten times more, if his understanding does not meet the requirements of the Heaven and Earth Pagoda, he will still be kicked out!"
As they were talking, someone had already begun drawing Inscriptions.
As soon as the Inscriptions were completed, a staircase appeared where that person was. The Revelation of Heaven Revelation's voice sounded reluctantly, "The first in the Sage Selection of the Celestial Court has been decided, and he is Mu Yun from the White City Academy!"
After Mu Yun finished speaking, he bowed respectfully to the sky and slowly walked up the stairs. When he was halfway up the stairs, he lowered his head and looked around. There were countless figures all over the ground, and Mu Yun couldn't see where Xiao Hua was.
"Xiao Wenzong."
Mu Yun said proudly, "I'll go first and wait for your challenge in the second stage of the Sage Selection!"
Mu Yun stepped into the fourteenth level of the Heaven and Earth Pagoda and sensed the rich Worldly Essence in this place. He immediately began to cultivate.
This was also why the students were in a hurry to leave. They entered the next round early so that they could familiarize themselves with the environment and use the Worldly Essence in the Heaven and Earth Pagoda to cultivate.
Not only did the Worldly Essence have the Worldly Essence, but it also had the Worldly Essence that was rarely seen in other places in the Celestial Court!
"Eh?"
Just as the armillary sphere of the same realm was about to retrieve the heaven and earth that Mu Yun had comprehended, he suddenly realized that the heaven and earth where Xiao Hua was at was emitting a faint glow. The surroundings of the Heaven and Earth Pagoda began to shake, and the grand rhythms of heaven and earth rapidly flowed in. The armillary sphere of the same realm was astonished. "What is this guy doing now?"
"Damn it!"
He glanced at the Revelation of Heaven's Record and smiled bitterly. He cursed under his breath, "Is this guy a cultivation maniac? Why do you have to cultivate even after being selected by the Sage? "
"No, no ~"
Armillary Sphere, who was in the same realm, also understood. He shook his head and said, "This guy is too stingy. He thinks that it would be a waste not to take advantage of the situation. He wants to use the Heaven and Earth Pagoda's Hong Yun to engrave the Earth Flower!"
As he spoke, he looked at the Hong Yun activated and waved his hand. "Since that's the case, why don't we make good use of the trash? I'll give them all to you so that the Heaven and Earth Pagoda won't have to collect and release them!"
Sure enough, when Mu Yun's Grand Rhythm of Heaven and Earth fell in, the rumbling of the Heaven and Earth Pagoda weakened.
Then, more and more students began to leave. The Revelation of Heaven's Record and the Armillary Sphere of the same level also couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Xiao Hua.
It was only after a hundred years that the number of students who left began to decrease. Those who left first were all geniuses, and the majority of those who came after them were trapped in comprehension. Their aptitudes were probably mediocre.
In front of the Five Phoenix Pavilion in White City, the illusory image of the Heaven and Earth Pagoda from before had already disappeared. It was replaced by a pagoda-shaped list that was as deep as the starry sky.
Wasn't this the Heaven Trampling List that announced the results of the Sage Selection?
Famous academies such as the White City Academy and the White Deer Academy in the White Jade Capital, as well as branches such as the White Jade Tower and the Hundred Songs Tower, all had people waiting around. They were all in different pavilions, staring at the Heaven Trampling List as if they were anticipating something.
In a majestic pavilion, Headmaster Wei Yiyong of the White City Academy, Headmaster Bai Yu of the White Deer Academy, Deputy Tower Master Zhang Yi of the White Jade Tower, and Deputy Tower Master Bai Kexin of the Hundred Songs Tower were drinking tea and chatting animatedly. Although they didn't pay attention to the list all the time like Qingxue and the other disciples, they still glanced at the list from time to time.
Deputy Tower Master Zhang Yi of the White Jade Tower put down her jade cup and looked around with a smile. She said, "Since there's nothing to do while we wait, why don't we make a bet?"
"Oh?"
Headmaster Bai Yu of the White Deer Academy was puzzled. He looked at Zhang Yi and asked curiously, "Deputy Tower Master Zhang, you're in such a good mood today. Are you that confident in your disciple, Yun Guangming?"
"Not at all ~"
Zhang Yi waved her hand and said, "I know Guangming's strength very well. He's not an absolute genius, so he might not be able to take the lead in the Heaven and Earth Pagoda's preliminaries. What I'm saying is, let's bet on whether Xiao Wenzong will be the first to pass the preliminaries …"
Before Zhang Yi could finish, Deputy Tower Master Bai Kexin of the Hundred Songs Tower shook her head and said, "There's no need to bet on this. I think that Xiao Wenzong will definitely be the first to pass the preliminaries!"
"That's right ~"
Bai Yu nodded and said, "I think so too. So this bet … can't go on!"
"Everyone thinks so?"
Zhang Yi looked at everyone helplessly. "Xiao Wenzong will be the first to pass the preliminaries?"
Everyone nodded. Even Headmaster Wei Yiyong of the White Deer Academy added, "There should be no doubt about this. Think about it, Xiao Wenzong was so amazing five thousand years ago. From the moment he stepped into the Five Great Forbidden Grounds, he was invincible. He had three unprecedented perfect academic credits. In the end, when he entered the Heaven and Earth Pagoda, not a single student could catch up to him. Although the Sage Selection is different from the Elite Selection, there shouldn't be any surprises for Xiao Wenzong to be the first to pass the preliminaries."
After saying that, Wei Yiyong didn't forget to add, "Not just us, all the Confucian Immortals in the Heavenly Court who are paying attention to the Sage Selection probably think so too, right?"
"Haha, isn't that so ~"
Deputy Tower Master Bai Kexin of the Hundred Songs Tower laughed and said, "All the people gathered in front of the Five Phoenix Pavilions to watch the Heaven Trampling List, which one of them isn't looking forward to Xiao Wenzong's wonderful performance once again?"
"If that's the case ~"
Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Then let's see which of our disciples will come out first. Let's bet a jade coin!"
"Haha ~"
Bai Yu and the others laughed and took out a jade coin, saying, "That's it, a little bet for fun …"
However, before they finished speaking, the Heaven Trampling List began to vibrate. Some clouds surged from all directions and quickly gathered, wanting to step on the first level of the Heaven Trampling List!
"So fast?"
Everyone raised their eyebrows and laughed. "Xiao Wenzong is indeed amazing …"
"No, no ~"
Before they finished speaking, Qingxue exclaimed, "No … it's not Xiao Wenzong, it's … it's Grandmaster Mu Yun!"
"Ah?"
Even Headmaster Wei Yiyong of the White Deer Academy was a little surprised. He hurriedly looked up at the Heaven Trampling List. As the clouds on the first level of the Heaven Trampling List stirred, a name rose like a morning star and rushed directly to the second level. Wasn't that Mu Yun of the White Deer Academy?
