Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Indeed, the Thunder Venerate is truly formidable.

Ling Xiao believed that if any of the seven academy elders were replaced, they would likely have already been heavily injured.

Yet the Thunder Venerate was only slightly wounded.

”Someone, kill this brat!”

Boye Chen suddenly came to his senses and roared angrily.

Boye Liuli seamlessly took action and lunged directly at Ling Xiao.

She hadn’t expected Ling Xiao to injure the Thunder Venerate, but now that it has indeed happened, she naturally could take the opportunity to kill Ling Xiao.

”Stop!”

At this moment, with a shout from the Thunder Venerate, Boye Liuli was forcibly sent flying away.

He coldly looked at Ling Xiao and said, ”Excellent! Truly excellent!

A Martial Artist at the Pinnacle of the Eighth Layer of the Yin-Yang Realm could actually hurt the headmaster.

Your rating is extraordinary!

Above the special level!”

”Thank you, Headmaster.”

Ling Xiao clasped his hands in gratitude.

He had expended one chance of Earthquake and Mountain Shaking and another chance to summon the Celestial Thunder Divine Guard.

Only then did he barely manage to injure the Thunder Venerate, which was indeed very difficult.

Know that Earthquake and Mountain Shaking can only be used once every half hour.

The Celestial Thunder Divine Guard requires even longer, currently only able to be summoned once a day.

Ling Xiao was unaware of how rare it was to be able to injure the Thunder Venerate.

The seven academy elders, including Long Yi, Gu Fang, and Boye Liuli, all looked at Ling Xiao with disbelief.

Everyone thought Long Yi would perform the best.

But Ling Xiao shattered their expectations, making them feel their imagination was laughable.

Of course, Ling Xiao’s achievement naturally offended some people.

Like Boye Chen and Boye Liuli.

They had mocked and taunted Ling Xiao before, but now Ling Xiao had slapped them hard in the face.

They of course harbored resentment.

Though such hatred wasn’t deep, it was enough for these high-ranking people to feel that Ling Xiao deserved to die.

Another person was Long Yi.

Long Yi looked down on Ling Xiao, directly wanting Ling Xiao’s White Jade Flying Dragon Sword.

He thought he was sure to get it, but the result was a joke.

Such people detest losing face the most.

Even though he knew he hadn’t exerted full strength, leading to this outcome.

He was still very angry.

There was also someone who had mixed feelings of love and hate towards Ling Xiao.

This person was the Thunder Venerate.

Love, because Ling Xiao’s talent amazed him; if such a person pledged allegiance to the Royal Family, they would surely become a great asset to the Chen Royal Family.

Hate, because Ling Xiao repeatedly defied him, harshly slapping him at the end.

This made him feel uncomfortable.

But the Thunder Venerate is after all the Thunder Venerate, not Boye Chen; being in a higher position, he naturally has a broader mind.

Having the intention to recruit Ling Xiao, he no longer harbored any killing intent.

”I misjudged you; you kid are capable, but in the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm, continue to strive hard.

In actual combat, no enemy will wait for you to release so many auxiliary skills.”

The Thunder Venerate said lightly.

”Understood!”

At this moment, the test completely ended, and the Thunder Venerate already had an idea of who qualified to enter the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm.

”Boye Chen, announce the list of those who passed the assessment.”

The Thunder Venerate glanced at Boye Chen and tossed a piece of paper over. It did not have many names.

Only a dozen or so.

It seemed most people had been eliminated.

Boye Chen read out, ”Twelve people passed the assessment.

Ling Xiao, Long Yi, Boye Liuli, Gu Fang, Lin Ruoxian, Yue Shang...”

Those who heard their names were naturally very happy.

Those who didn’t hear their names could only sigh.

No matter how dissatisfied they were, the Thunder Venerate was present, as were the seven academy elders; they wouldn’t dare say anything disrespectful.

Interestingly, these twelve people were divided among four individuals.

Long Yi and two others were selected by Chen Wang.

Ling Xiao, Lin Ruoxian, and Yue Shang were people of the Wise and Virtuous King.

Boye Liuli, Gu Fang, and four others were people of the Fourteenth Prince.

The remaining two were people of the Seventh Prince Chen Cangmang, whose performance was average and not remarkable among the twelve, only considered middle-level.

Next, Boye Chen briefly introduced the situation of the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm.

According to him, the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm is very similar to usual secret realms; the outer area is relatively safe, but the deeper you go, the more dangerous.

The Secret Realm Academy divided the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm into Soldier Level, General Level, King Level, and Untouchable Area from outside to inside.

The first three levels have been visited, but the Untouchable Area has never been reached by anyone.

No one knows what it holds.

Because all Martial Artists die as soon as they step into that area.

Yet according to the characteristics of the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm, from outside to inside, the level of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures increases.

The ferocity of Monster Beasts also becomes stronger.

Naturally, the benefits obtained might increase, and cultivation speed also improves.

Martial Artists just entering the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm can only roam in the Soldier-level Area; no matter how strong one’s ability is, they must start from the very basic level, that’s the rule.

Of course, if you kill the strongest monster or Yuanling Clan member in the Soldier-level Area.

Or obtain permission from the Thunder Emperor and Thunder Venerate, you can enter other areas in advance.

This is just an exception.

The Soldier-level Area is very large, so it’s divided into eight hunting zones, each under the charge of the seven academy elders and the most capable subordinates of the Royal Family.

They are also called the Hunting Heads.

Generally, the different hunting zones are not to infiltrate each other, which involves the interests of the Eight Great Clans of Thunder City.

The profits from the First Hunting Zone to the Eighth Hunting Zone belong to the Royal Family and the other Seven Great Families.

Regardless of who enters, the obtained items must have ninety percent presented to these behind-the-scenes bosses.

Ling Xiao and his group were assigned to the Seventh District.

Long Yi was assigned to the First District.

Boye Liuli, Gu Fang, and others were assigned to the Eighth District.

Chen Cangmang’s people were assigned to the Sixth District.

”You may leave, take care of your Soul Lock Badge, it’s your sole credential for entering the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm; if lost, you will forever lose the qualification to enter!

Outside, the Hunting Heads of the First, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Hunting Zones are waiting for you.

They will tell you in detail what to do and what actions to take upon entering.” ”

After saying this, Boye Chen looked at the Thunder Venerate and said, ”Lord Thunder Venerate, do you have any other instructions?”

”Nothing more, let them retreat.”

The Thunder Venerate yawned.

Perhaps due to being too obese, he didn’t like physical activity and always felt tired, wanting to sleep.

”Alright! Before you retreat, I’ll warn you one last time: the spiritual medicines and wealth you gather in the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm must have ninety percent contributed to the Eight Great Families.

If anyone dares to hide secretly or refuses to hand over, the final result will be death!”

”Not only you will die, but your family and friends will too!”

Boye Chen said powerfully at the end, infusing a strong inner strength into his voice, ruthlessly impacting the depths of everyone’s soul.
