416: The gods compete with each other, and one person raises the contemporary level!

On the other side.

After Nangong Xinyue displayed her identity jade token, she was welcomed into the Divine Dao Academy amidst the shocked and awed gazes of many Cultivators outside.

"May I ask why Your Highness has come to our Divine Dao Academy?"

"Is there anything this old man can do for you?"

Headmaster Taiqing personally poured a cup of tea for Nangong Xinyue, who was seated before him.

Although he appeared respectful and fawning on the surface, his heart was already mentally exhausted from the torment inflicted by Nangong Xinyue and Kong Wudao.

If he had known earlier that he would face such a tribulation in his destiny, he would not have gone to such lengths to contend for the position of Headmaster.

If Heaven could give him a chance to start over, he would definitely tell his past self, "You idiot, why did you have to fight for the Headmaster position?!"

Their Divine Dao Academy was already overwhelmed enough with the arrival of Kong Wudao, a great deity.

But now, a second one had arrived!

"Looking for someone."

Nangong Xinyue lowered her gaze, blowing on the hot tea in her cup, and responded indifferently.

As soon as she spoke, Headmaster Taiqing and the other Shén Dào Institute High-Level Management felt a jolt in their hearts, their expressions shifting as they subconsciously thought of Kong Wudao.

However... in their memories, the Sixteen Forbidden Zones that dominated the The Glorious Era of the Heavens seemed to be independent, never interfering with the rule of other Forbidden Zones.

In fact, in some aspects, the Sixteen Forbidden Zones would even compete with each other.

Now... the successor of the Tianguang Forbidden Zone also coincidentally appeared at their Divine Dao Academy. Could it be to contend with Kong Wudao of the Space-Time Forbidden Zone?

Nangong Xinyue had been intelligent and perceptive since childhood.

Just from the subtle emotional changes on the faces of the Shén Dào Institute High-Level Management, she guessed their thoughts.

However, she had no intention of explaining further.

"No need to publicize my identity; I have my own plans."

Upon hearing Nangong Xinyue's words, Headmaster Taiqing and the others' expressions changed again, further confirming their suspicions.

It's over!

When immortals fight, Mortals suffer!

If these two Forbidden Zone successors started fighting within their Divine Dao Academy, what should he do?

Whose side should he take?

After all, both of them were backed by the Great Thousand Taboos; helping either one would likely lead to a dead end!

.........

Time flowed, and several days passed in a blink of an eye.

During this period, the 100,000 Prodigies who successfully entered the Divine Dao Academy for Cultivation through the initial trial selection were reduced to over 30,00ies.

Most were eliminated by the tail-end mechanism due to insufficient ranking points.

Some also died in the Secret Realm world or in competitions with other Prodigies.

During this period, the most eye-catching one was naturally Kong Wudao.

Many Prodigies looked up at the golden light screen above their heads.

Even though they had been following the ranking list above them all these days, they were still shocked to the core by the first line of text at the top.

"[Name: Burial Dao, Ranking Points: 1,521,000, Rank: 1]"

Following the golden text at the top of the list:

"[Name: Emperor Shitian, Ranking Points: 698,000]"

"[Name: An Wushen, Ranking Points: 326,000]"

"[..........]"

This visually impactful contrast left everyone speechless.

Kong Wudao, ranked first on the list, directly led the second place by 800,000 points!

He led the third place, An Wushen, by over 1.2 million points!

Among the top 100 after the top 10, the highest was only 200,000 points, generally below 100,000, and for those further down, the lowest was just over 10,000.

What did this mean?

Kong Wudao alone single-handedly raised the average ranking points of this generation of Prodigies entering the Divine Dao Academy!

The average ranking points in previous generations were at most a little over 10,000.

But because of Kong Wudao, this point monster, in this generation, he alone single-handedly raised the average ranking points of this generation to nearly 20,000!

Over 1.5 million ranking points were not only explosive but also unprecedented and unrivaled in the history of their Divine Dao Academy!

However, what could further shatter everyone's worldview was not just the nearly unprecedented ranking points Kong Wudao created.

His methods and ways of clearing stages also made the Shén Dào Institute High-Level Management and many Prodigies feel a tingling scalp and completely disheveled just by recalling them!

Because Kong Wudao would always use unexpected methods to clear Secret Realms in the simplest, most direct, and incisive way, refreshing ancient records.

Although many people tried to imitate him, they never managed to surpass Kong Wudao.

Because other Cultivators simply did not possess the Supreme Realm cultivation like him.

Even if they imitated him step by step, they could not refresh the records left by Kong Wudao.

Nor could they obtain points from it.

They could only eat some scraps in these Secret Realm worlds.

For example, robbing other Cultivators or searching everywhere in the Secret Realm for special tokens with 20 ranking points.

It was precisely because of this that Kong Wudao's ranking points snowballed, and the gap between him and other ancient Prodigies like Emperor Shitian grew wider and wider.

In these few days, Kong Wudao had refreshed a total of 36 ancient Secret Realm records and 14 Legacy land records.

It is worth mentioning that perhaps because Kong Wudao never intended to inherit the will of the Divine Dao Academy's ancestors whenever he refreshed a Legacy land record, he offended and angered the Divine Dao Academy's ancestors' will.

Therefore, after clearing the Legacy land left by Town Sea Great Venerable, the will of the Divine Dao Academy's ancestors in every subsequent Legacy land no longer manifested, nor did they intend to choose Kong Wudao as their successor.

Such a phenomenon also caused a huge stir, leading to widespread discussion among countless Cultivators.

"Hmph! So what if he can refresh records every time?"

"Burial Dao is too arrogant! He angered the Divine Dao Academy's ancestors, and now he's just dreaming if he thinks he can still obtain the Divine Dao Academy ancestors' Legacy!"

"The Divine Dao Academy's ancestors were all top figures in our Heaven Domain. Obtaining their Legacy will bring countless benefits to one's future Dao path!"

"For example, Your Highness Emperor Shitian and Lord An Wushen, both of them greatly improved their cultivation and strength after obtaining the Divine Dao Academy ancestors' Legacy!"

However, many Cultivators dismissed this.

"A bunch of short-sighted fools!"

"Do you understand Lord Burial Dao?"

"Earlier, I heard Lord Wu Lingyu say that if others dare to claim that Town Sea Great Venerable's Legacy is unworthy of them, it's arrogance, but if those words come from Burial Dao, then it's the truth!"

"Lord Burial Dao's background is extraordinary; he must be a direct descendant of a certain Immortal Venerable in our Heaven Domain. As a direct descendant of an Immortal Venerable, how could he lack so-called Legacy?"

"........."

These days, Kong Wudao's brilliant Heaven-Defying performance had already earned him the admiration and respect of countless people.

It can be said that in the entire Extraterritorial Land, apart from the Prodigies who hated and envied Kong Wudao due to various conflicts of interest, most Prodigies greatly revered Kong Wudao, even using all means to curry favor with him.

Now, even without Kong Wudao's intervention, many Prodigies actively refuted those with ulterior motives.
