A streak of blue light cut through the void within the Sea of Clouds.
"Brother Feng! You’re too fast! Wait for us!"
Following the blue light, a massive, divine, snow-white bird ca speeding over. The bird already had a hint of a Phoenix’s form, resembling a snowy-white Phoenix, and its flight carried a biting chill.
What was most surprising was that perched on this white bird was another strange bird, squawking and shouting.
With a turn of his body, a figure in a black robe erged gracefully from the clouds. Qin Feng, standing atop the Beiming Divine Water Sword, appeared high above the City of Many Stars. In the distance, an impossibly massive city ca into view.
It was majestic and imposing, towering and grand.
Every breath this terrifyingly giant city took seed to exude an air of majesty!
He had arrived at the City of Many Stars!
The speed of Sword Flight was beyond Qin Feng’s imagination. It was just as fast as so of the avian Barbaric Beasts known for their swiftness.
"We’re heading to the Nanhua Sect!"
All Stars Academy had established a Celestial Sect on a distant Cloud Platform. All Martial Arts Strongn who arrived by flying had to enter through this gate.
Charging directly into the City of Many Stars would be seen as a provocation by the experts of All Stars Academy. For a minor offense, one might be suppressed by an expert; for a serious one, they could be killed on the spot.
The Nanhua Sect stood upon the Sea of Clouds. It was a floating island, suspended amid the vast, boundless clouds.
A colossal, magnificent gate stood upon the island.
The Nanhua Sect!
From a distance, an aura of majesty emanated from it, as if from the Ancient Era.
At the Nanhua Sect, two lazy-looking young n leaned with greatswords slung over their shoulders, inspecting the tokens of the experts passing by. Beside them stood a squad of Star Soldiers and Star Generals radiating a palpable Evil Qi.
It seed the inspection of passing experts was extrely thorough!
The two n in the lead were clad in armor. Despite their lazy deanor, they radiated a thick Evil Qi—an aura possessed only by those who had truly fought their way out of a sea of blood and bodies.
These were the true elites of All Stars Academy!
In the past, the Nanhua Sect had conducted inspections, but never this strict.
His expression turned grave. ’The atmosphere feels off. Did sothing happen in the City of Many Stars?’
Before the gate of the Nanhua Sect, several powerful experts, so riding Exotic Beasts and others carrying weapons on their backs, descended from the surrounding Sea of Clouds.
Hearing a sound from the Sea of Clouds, they looked up to see a young man in a black robe flying out from the clouds, riding a Spirit Sword.
Behind the black-robed youth, a large, snow-white bird landed gracefully.
"Flying Heaven with Sword... what a young man. I wonder which great talent he is?" a middle-aged man riding a black tiger said, looking at the black-robed youth with considerable interest.
"Flying Heaven with Sword! He must be another Sword Dao expert!"
Behind him, a beautiful and alluring woman in red nad Yanran smiled sweetly. She laughed and said,
"He must be here for the Hidden Dragon Points Competition, too. So many young experts have been rushing to the City of Many Stars lately!"
"I heard that a few more stars were lit on the Star Stele a few days ago!"
"Oh, is that so?" The eyes of the middle-aged man on the black tiger lit up. "Do you know what kind of stars they were? What were their Attributes?"
One of the two young n guarding the gate glanced at the token from the tiger-riding middle-aged man, then urged him on.
"Alright, move along. Don’t block the entrance!"
Shortly after, the beautiful woman in red also passed the inspection.
"You’re next, Junior Brother. Please present your All Stars Token or your Identity Jade Butterfly," one of the armored youths said, his gaze falling on the black-robed young man.
Qin Feng moved slightly, and with a flip of his palm, a silver-white token appeared in his hand.
The youth casually took the token and closed his eyes for a mont. When he opened them, his expression had shifted, and his face softened. He returned the token to Qin Feng with a smile.
"So you’re the Cave Master of Heavenly Red Peak’s Bishui Cave. Please, go ahead, Junior Brother!"
Qin Feng nodded. He was about to walk through when his brow twitched and he paused. Turning his head, he asked with a smile, "Excuse , Senior Brother, but has sothing happened in the City of Many Stars? Why has the inspection here suddenly beco so strict?"
The youth’s face grew serious and his brow furrowed. He glanced at Qin Feng and pondered for a mont before suddenly speaking.
"Fine. Since you’re an elite of our All Stars Academy, I won’t hide it from you. We have run into a small problem. According to intelligence from the Academy, it seems a small group of experts from the Demon God Temple in the Barbaric Wilderness has infiltrated the City of Many Stars. Their intentions are unknown!"
"The Demon God Temple!"
Qin Feng’s expression changed slightly, and he was greatly alard.
The Demon God Temple was an ancient, first-rate power in the Barbaric Realm. No one knew how long it had existed, but it was a behemoth in the region.
It was the overlord of the Barbaric Realm.
This power was rumored to be composed of the Alien Race and so Demon God Races of ancient bloodlines.
This power had always been a mortal enemy of All Stars Academy; the two were like fire and water. They had fought for thousands of years, accumulating a blood feud that could only end in death.
The Demon God Temple and All Stars Academy were engaged in bloody conflict at nearly every mont.
However, the major battles were all fought on the front lines.
All Stars Academy had a special list called the Demon Hunting Ranking, and many of the demon hunting missions specifically targeted experts from the Demon God Temple.
But in recent years, with the birth of the Three Circles of All Stars Academy, the tables had turned. In the past, the two powers were evenly matched, but now All Stars Academy was gradually gaining the upper hand.
For several hundred years, the experts of the Demon God Temple had been held back thousands of miles away.
Not a single spy from the Demon God Temple had been seen in the City of Many Stars for centuries.
’Spies from the Demon God Hall showing up right as the Hidden Dragon Points Competition is about to start... It seems troubled tis are ahead!’
Qin Feng keenly sensed the oppressive calm before the storm.
With a flicker, he passed through the Nanhua Sect and flew on his sword toward the Mystic Master Guild’s territory in the City of Many Stars.
An hour later, Qin Feng arrived at the central street where All Stars Academy was located within the City of Many Stars. Flying was prohibited here. Qin Feng placed the Silly Bird into the Blue Sea and Heaven.
Qin Feng headed toward All Stars Academy alone with Eighth Master. He planned to first collect the second layer of the Mixed Elent Star Technique.
Just as he walked into All Stars Academy, he overheard scattered discussions near the entrance.
A hushed conversation between a few people caught his attention.
"A few days ago, a strange phenonon occurred at the Star Stele. New Star Lords have been born!"
"I heard! Soone among this year’s new students has condensed a Lifebound Star Mark!"
"Are the nas of those Star Lords displayed on the Star Ranking?"
"No. As everyone knows, unless a Star Lord voluntarily reveals their na, the Star Ranking will only display the star itself!"
"I heard about that, too. It seems like over a dozen stars gained a Star Lord at the sa ti!"
"That’s an exaggeration, right? It’s been less than ten days since the new students’ first comprehensive assessnt, and over a dozen stars suddenly appeared on the Star Ranking? Does that an more than a dozen people condensed a Lifebound Star Mark within ten days? That’s too ridiculous! Are there that many monstrous geniuses this year?"
"That’s not all! This ti, two golden stars and three purple stars appeared on the ranking at once!"
One of them cried out, "That’s impossible! Everyone knows that the colors emitted by the stars on the Star Stele are divided into classes based on their quality. The lowest is white, next is silver, above that is purple, and the very highest is gold! A golden star is of the highest quality! It’s one in ten thousand, the leader of all stars! How could two appear at the sa ti!"
