He showed no unusual expression on his face, “In that case, I’ll take my leave first, Senior Brother. Recently, several exceptionally talented teenage prodigies have emerged in the Lower Institute. I need to take some time to see them.”

Today, he was summoned to the Dao Yi Hall by Li Changsheng amidst his busy schedule to guard against the backlash of the Demon God Zangtian.

Li Changsheng’s Pingtian Sword could dominate the arena under Zangtian’s watchful eyes.

But it would definitely invite the retaliation of the Demon God Zangtian.

When Li Changsheng was too occupied to pay attention, only Lu Shouyang could resist Zangtian’s immense Divine Might.

Since Chu Xisheng won the battle, there was no need for Li Changsheng to intervene, and naturally, Lu Shouyang didn’t need to stay in Dao Yi Hall.

“Teenage prodigies?” Li Changsheng raised his thick eyebrows.

“I’m curious, who exactly has caught your attention, Junior Brother? What makes them extraordinary?”

At this time, Teaching Institute Grand Elder Qingxuzi had already escorted a group of disciples to the entrance of the Time Secret Realm.

For this month, all the affairs of the Formless Divine Sect’s Lower Institute and Teaching Institute were under Lu Shouyang’s administration.

However, the Teaching Institute had its own system, and the daily affairs could be handled internally without troubling Lu Shouyang.

“The Head of the Lower Institute said these individuals might have the potential of the Super Heavenly Pillar.”

Lu Shouyang smiled, “One of the young women is especially outstanding. She was admitted to the Lower Institute six days ago. Just after putting down her luggage, she went to the Tongtian Platform to challenge the rankings. Within six days, she fought thirty-seven battles without a single defeat. The Head of the Lower Institute said she has a semblance of the Dominating Martial King’s prowess from the old days.”

The so-called ‘Tongtian Platform’ consisted of twenty-four arenas on the south side of the Lower Institute, symbolizing ‘communication with the heavens.’

There lay the ‘Heavenly List,’ ranking the disciples of the Lower Institute.

The Formless Divine Sect had a rule.

All disciples under twenty-five years of age in the Lower Institute could go to the Tongtian Platform to challenge the arena.

If they could win a hundred consecutive battles or enter the top five of the list and maintain their position for a month, they would be directly admitted to the Outer Gate, gaining the status of an Outer Disciple.

There was a sixteen-year-old girl who had won thirty-seven consecutive battles in six days, quickly rising to the top twenty of the Heavenly List.

Lu Shouyang was quite interested in her.

However, regarding the Head of the Lower Institute’s remark about her having the demeanor of the Dominating Martial King from the old days, Lu Shouyang was skeptical.

The Dominating Martial King was an unparalleled prodigy, his talent overshadowing his peers.

Even possessing fifty to sixty percent of the Dominating Martial King’s talent would be enough to master any Holy Transmission of the Formless Divine Sect except for Blood Revenge.

Such a figure might not be seen in five years, appearing once among millions.

So Lu Shouyang decided to visit the Lower Institute to verify the girl’s talent with his own eyes.

Otherwise, it would be hard for him to believe.

Chu Xisheng was completely unaware of the conversation between the two contemporary experts in Dao Yi Hall.

He was scavenging Mei Shu’s corpse for spoils of war.

The Demon God Zangtian was considerate enough to give him time to deal with Mei Shu’s body.

At first, Chu Xisheng felt quite delighted, finding twenty-seven silver notes in Mei Shu’s sleeve.

All were unnamed silver notes from the Golden Sky Bank, with a denomination of a thousand taels each.

However, his expression soon turned to disappointment.

Mei Shu had seven magical artifacts on him, all fine items, including two Fifth Grade ones.

Besides that, Mei Shu’s skeleton was also a complete set of magical artifacts.

The problem was, all these artifacts had been blood-sacrificed.

Mei Shu had killed countless people, causing these artifacts to be suffused with dense blood poison and deeply hidden impure energy, enhancing their power by thirty to fifty percent.

Chu Xisheng couldn’t use any of them.

Of course, these items were extremely valuable, fetching three to five hundred thousand taels of Demon Silver if sold on the black market.

The demon cultivators were quite fond of these items.

But Chu Xisheng didn’t want these things to end up in the hands of demon cultivators again.

Chu Xisheng wasn’t a person of high moral standing, but he had his own principles.

As long as it was within his capability, he would not do anything against his conscience.

If Chu Yunyun and Lu Luanyi found out about this, they would definitely turn against him.

Moreover, the war armor and skeletal artifacts on Mei Shu were quite bulky.

Without a Void Magical Artifact, carrying them would be extremely cumbersome.

Fortunately, he had another option.

Chu Xisheng could offer these items as sacrifices to the Demon Gods Zangtian and Li Tan.

Offering items to the Demon Gods didn’t bring money, only Divine Grace.

After some consideration, Chu Xisheng chose the War God Li Tan.

The War God Zangtian would probably disdain such items.

Zangtian had a fierce, combative, impatient, and stubborn nature.

So Chu Xisheng didn’t need to curry favor with him.

As long as his actions aligned with Zangtian’s intentions, divine favor would naturally be bestowed in abundance.

Otherwise, no amount of pleading or offerings would attract Zangtian’s attention.

But War God Li Tan accepted any offering.

He was the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers, overseeing countless Divine Weapons and artifacts in his arsenal.

It was said that the more items stored in his arsenal, the more powerful Li Tan became, capable of infinite growth.

When Chu Xisheng put his hands together and silently prayed to the Demon God Li Tan, all the demonic artifacts in front of him, including Mei Shu’s skeletal magical artifacts, vanished instantly.

Chu Xisheng looked up and noticed a slight change in the silver eye above his head.

A hint of golden pattern appeared around its edge.

Chu Xisheng then glanced at the illusory screen at the upper right corner of his vision.

It was because, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that there had been significant changes to his character panel.
