189: Unrivaled throughout history, the foremost among geniuses! Unrivaled!
Another old man said with a smile.
"As for talent..."
"Changing jobs is a common occurrence."
"Little fellow."
"What do you think of the Military Alliance?"
Ou Mo turned his head sharply, but before he could say anything...
...more voices rang out.
"I think Old Yi is right."
"Such a Prodigy should naturally have more options."
"It's all for the sake of the Human Race."
"Little fellow, how about the Supreme Academy?"
"Indeed."
"The Mercenary Alliance I oversee is also worth considering."
"If you ask me..."
...your Five Major Starry Sky Forces are all the same."
"Engaging in 'healthy competition' every day while having more people than you can manage."
"Little fellow, come with Grandma Gongsun."
"I will definitely nurture you well, one-on-one."
These voices rang out.
Let alone Ou Mo, who was currently like a furious lion.
Even Donggong Li, whose expression had remained calm, could no longer maintain his composure.
"Cough..."
"Old Ancestors."
Instantly.
Several gazes swept over.
"Lad Li, the Demon and Devil races are attacking the Imperial Pass. Why aren't you there guarding it? What are you still doing here?"
Donggong Li's expression froze.
Wait!
You're driving me away like this?!
If I leave, won't Lin Yan be swallowed whole by you all?!
He was about to speak again.
"Enough."
A deep and steady middle-aged man's voice suddenly exploded like muffled thunder within the empty hall.
A man dressed in silver robes appeared abruptly like a ghost on the seat at the very top of the hall, symbolizing supreme authority.
His posture was as upright as a pine, with silver hair cascading down like snow, dancing lightly in the wind, exuding a majestic aura that made one afraid to look directly at him.
The moment the seven elders, who were on the verge of arguing, saw this silver-haired man appear, their expressions immediately became incredibly submissive and reverent.
They bowed deeply to the man in unison.
"Ancient Ancestor!"
Donggong Li's heart shook, and a flash of shock crossed his eyes.
How was even this senior disturbed?!
Lin Yan, who had been silently observing everything, also turned his gaze toward the silver-haired man.
Ancient Ancestor?
The significance of this title was by no means trivial.
Within the instantly silent hall.
The silver-haired man on the seat above stared fixedly at Lin Yan, a tremble that no one noticed flashing deep in his eyes.
"Li... Since he originally belongs to the Martial Arts Company as a Prodigy, he should naturally be under Ou Mo's management."
"There is no need for further dispute on this point."
As those two unquestionable sentences fell.
A brilliant smile immediately broke out on Ou Mo's face.
The seven elders replied respectfully.
"Yes!"
Following that.
The silver-haired man looked at Donggong Li and spoke again.
"You should be preparing to take him for the Martial Arts Company's Venerable Rank Evaluation."
"Since everyone is here."
"We'll just go through the simplified procedure."
"Return to the Imperial Pass immediately after it's finished."
"A great war is imminent."
Donggong Li immediately responded.
"Yes."
However.
He was puzzled.
Simplified procedure? What was that?
The seven elders suddenly looked at Lin Yan again, as if only now discovering a blind spot they had overlooked.
Venerable Rank Evaluation?!
It seemed Lad Li had mentioned this earlier.
Eh? Wait!
Fifth-Grade Venerable Rank, Middle Stage?!!
Didn't he just come out of the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield?
Doesn't that mean he had a Breakthrough as soon as he came out, reaching Fifth-Grade immediately?
The corners of the seven Human Race Old Ancestors' mouths twitched slightly.
The one who slaughtered a city!
Is this the Prodigy who achieved such an unprecedented feat?
Especially Ou Mo; he glanced at the mischievously looking Donggong Li, feeling a feigned anger in his heart.
You little rascal! You kept quiet all this time.
You were planning to watch me make a fool of myself, weren't you?
He immediately said.
"The evaluation regulations for any level of Prodigy in the Martial Arts Company require it to be completed before reaching the Fourth-Grade cultivation base."
"But this little fellow is truly special, and since we're going through the simplified procedure, there naturally aren't so many restrictions."
"Come."
"Right here, unleash your full-strength strike."
A flash of realization crossed Donggong Li's eyes.
So this was the so-called simplified procedure.
It makes sense.
With these few, especially the one at the top, present, one strike is indeed enough.
Lin Yan's mind was even clearer.
To put it nicely, he was a super Prodigy; to put it bluntly, his current strength was far from enough, not just before these elders, but even compared to Donggong Li.
Therefore...
The black-gold heavenly emperor armor shone with a strange light, completing a magnificent transformation in an instant.
Simultaneously, the heavenly emperor halberd appeared out of thin air like a bolt of lightning, exuding a heart-palpitating pressure.
A thunderous roar resounded.
Two supreme auras surged forth like a turbulent tide.
Lin Yan was surrounded by pitch-black flames, revealing only a pair of emotionless, pale eyes, like an emperor looking down upon the mortal world.
Seeing this, the seven elders couldn't help but narrow their eyes, a subtle glint quickly flashing through them.
They were inwardly shocked.
It was actually a perfect combination of a rare Physique and a mysterious Pupil Technique!
And any one of them, taken individually, was an existence at least a grade higher than any Domain Level ability they had ever seen.
It truly exceeded their imagination and understanding.
At this moment.
They finally seemed to understand why this youth could achieve events that pioneered the history of starry sky martial arts.
The silver-haired man above couldn't help but straighten his posture slightly, and the secret trembling hidden deep in his eyes became increasingly apparent.
Everyone's gaze was tightly focused on the figure standing proudly in the center of the hall.
Lin Yan's palm gently stroked the cold and sharp blade of the heavenly emperor halberd, his movements as soft as if he were cherishing a rare treasure.
Just then.
Accompanied by a deep and long Dragon's roar...
...a domineering Black Dragon suddenly emerged in mid-air, following the movement of his palm.
This Black Dragon's body was as massive as a mountain, its scales glinting with a cold light, and black mist spewed from its mouth, making it appear incredibly majestic and terrifying.
Then.
The youth gripped the heavenly emperor halberd and slashed downward with force.
Overlord Halberd: Overlord!!!
Boom—!
The hall shook with a loud bang.
The Black Dragon opened its bloody maw and let out a deafening roar, charging straight toward the silver-haired man above with a world-destroying momentum.
The entire space seemed to twist and deform due to the massive impact, and the surrounding air was compressed, letting out sharp, ear-piercing explosions.
"Haha!"
"Good!"
The silver-haired man laughed heartily.
As this laughter echoed through the hall...
...the Black Dragon dissipated, and the powerful attack vanished into thin air.
It was as if nothing had happened.
Lin Yan, whose chest was slightly heaving, felt a flash of shock in his eyes.
So strong!!
Before he could react.
A voice that resounded throughout the entire Ancestral Court came from the silver-haired man's mouth, like thunder, full of majesty.
"Lin Yan, eighteen years and eleven months old."
"Admitted as a Supreme Level Prodigy of our race!"
"What is a Supreme One?"
"Above the Realm!"
"Unrivaled through the ages! The head of all Prodigies!"
"No one shall interfere with his growth."
"He possesses the right to utilize unlimited resources!!!"
(PS: Thanks! Many thanks! Big boss Immortal Seeker, this is really too generous! I'm so shocked I don't know what to say. I can only say, big brother, please spend rationally. I'm not adding chapters because I want gifts, but because I'll definitely add them when I have time. I work during the day and write at night! I write slowly, so I'm really stretched thin! Finally, some more world-building introductions are almost done, and the youth's path of battle is about to begin again!)
