Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2912: Chapter 48: Working Emperor (Part 3)

Of course, as a cultivator in the Great Luo realm, the Saint Emperor is much faster than the Cloud Yao Seventh Generation Flying Boat, and in fact, as long as they have a clear spatial marker within the Divine Martial World’s range, they can instantly reach any location.

But this Cloud Yao Flying Boat is clearly meant for regular folks, with most of the passengers in the economy section being in the Spirit Platform Realm and Heavenly Human Realm. The business section is where those in the Purple Abode Realm and Divine Power Territory appear.

As for wealthy passengers in the Divine Power Territory or Transcendent Void Realm, they generally sit in the flying boat’s first-class cabin.

This means that in the Divine Martial World, even ordinary cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm and Heavenly Human Realm can reach any location in the world within a few days, and the cost is merely a modest sum of money.

It’s worth noting that although the Sacred Domain has ferries, they aren’t nearly as fast, and the fare is quite expensive, so ordinary independent cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm and Heavenly Human Realm absolutely cannot afford to ride them.

Listening to Chen Suling’s introduction, the three big shots were full of sentiments.

Meanwhile, a pleasing notification tone from the Artifact Spirit sounded in the waiting area. The Cloud Yao Seventh Generation Flying Boat that the Taoist Master Taichu and his companions were taking began its boarding process.

Chen Suling immediately informed the three VIPs and escorted them to the ticket check.

Moments later.

As the Cloud Yao Flying Boat soared into the sky, piercing through the Tempest Layer.

Chen Suling held a top-quality Spirit Stone in her hand, staring blankly, overwhelmed by the wind.

Is today her lucky day?

A top-quality Spirit Stone...

Such a treasure couldn’t be exchanged even if she sold her 7th-rank Aristocratic Family!

Meanwhile, on the Cloud Yao Flying Boat.

The three big shots were already seated, eagerly listening to the conversations of various people, and curiously observing every new thing around them.

”Brother Fang, congratulations on your Qilin Kid being admitted to Changning Academy. His future is indeed limitless,” a middle-aged man exclaimed in an envious tone.

”Oh, not at all, the boy unfortunately bombed his science exam; otherwise, he might have had a chance to enter Wang’s Higher Clan School,” another man’s voice sounded both boastful and regretful.

”I heard that this year, the entrance threshold for Wang’s Higher Clan School has been raised again? Non-Wang family members need to start with the Great Heavenly Proud to qualify for the literacy exam? Isn’t this a bit too competitive?”

”Indeed... For us from a First Grade family, the Great Heavenly Proud is no longer a big deal; the difficulty lies in the literacy exam! Their test questions get more outrageous each time. If you can’t pass the literacy exam, even an Unparalleled Heavenly Child can’t get in.”

”That’s why our family spent heavily to buy a mansion in Xinping Town, specifically to send our Unparalleled Heavenly Child to remedial classes there. We have already purchased twenty years’ worth of courses for him! Reportedly, the teacher is personally from Wang’s Higher Clan School.”

”There’s this kind of remedial class? Brother Ouyang... can you introduce me to the teacher?”

”An introduction is no problem, but the fees...”

”As long as we can enter Wang’s Higher Clan School, I’m willing to bankrupt the entire family. If that’s just not feasible, we can only try for Immortal Palace or Changning Academy.”

The people happily chatted away, but when these words reached the ears of the three big shots, they couldn’t help but exchange astonished glances.

Does Wang’s Higher Clan School have to be so impressive? With qualifications like Great Heavenly Proud or Unparalleled Heavenly Child, they’re still not accepted if they can’t pass the literacy exam?

And starting with the Great Heavenly Proud for school enrollment, what does that even mean?

The Taoist Master Taichu’s face darkened a bit.

His Primordial Taoist Palace’s disciple recruitment threshold is just the Great Heavenly Proud! This Wang’s Higher Clan School, is it trying to compete with the Primordial Taoist Palace?

As if the Wang family is inheriting some Dao Book, they’re overly proud.

”Master,” Emperor Tianrui enveloped a private space using his God Sense, inviting the other two into the conversation circle, ”these young people in the Divine Martial World seem to have outrageously high Bloodline Talent~ Even within our Jade River Sacred Dynasty, we don’t see such phenomena.”

”Indeed,” the Taoist Master Taichu found it somewhat peculiar, ”in the past when encountering children like Wang Baoguang and Bao Sheng, I thought they were special because of the Wang family’s strength. But now, it seems that the young individuals in the Divine Martial World are universally self-assured and formidable. Even the lower-tier cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm have spirit and are brimming with confidence...”

”Master, you may not know,” said Emperor Tianrui, who had interacted with the Wang family extensively, ”The Shenwu Sacred Alliance places great emphasis on education for all. There are countless schools and Academic Palaces throughout the realm. Therefore, even though they’re lower-tier cultivators, their situation is quite different from ours in the Sacred Domain.”

The Sacred Domain has existed for over a million years, and its societal structure has become severely rigid. The lower-tier cultivators live very confined and unfree lives under oppressive conditions, facing extremely limited upward mobility, unlike in the Divine Martial World, where opportunities for schooling or earning a livelihood through skills abound.

”Moreover, their laws are highly refined and stringent. For instance, incidents of high-ranking families bullying lower-ranking families are severely punished in the Divine Martial World. Higher-level cultivators cannot arbitrarily bully lower-level cultivators, so even the lower-tier cultivators live with dignity, and with their general high level of education, their spirit and demeanor are naturally different.”

The speech left both Emperor Tianrui and the Taoist Master Taichu in silence.

At first, they thought the Divine Martial World was an untamed, uncivilized place, but they never imagined its institutional and ideological advancement might actually exceed that of the Sacred Domain.
