The battle for the throne in Kowloon starts with the steady prince

Qin Changge and the others frowned upon hearing this.

There must be something fishy going on here, otherwise Zou Tianyan wouldn't have needed to go to such lengths to drive Qin Changge and the others away.

However, Zou Tianyan knew perfectly well that Qin Changge was the Primordial Saint Son, yet he still made things difficult for him. This time, the title of Primordial Saint Lord might not be effective.

"Alright, then let's try our luck on this Heart-Testing Steps."

Qin Changqing agreed. Clearly, with a Celestial Emperor overseeing the Heavenly God Academy, they could not possibly act recklessly and could only comply with Zou Tianyan's request.

The next moment, Qin Changqing said to Qin Changge and the others, "This Questioning Steps should be a place of trial. With so many of us giving it a try, surely one of us will be able to pass."

Clearly, Qin Changqing was quite confident in the aptitude of his brothers, so he wasn't too afraid to challenge the Heart-Questioning Realm.

"it is good."

Qin Changge and the others nodded in agreement. Indeed, they, as brothers, had always considered themselves to be no less talented than others.

How could a mere questioning of the mind possibly stump them?

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, Qin Changqing, Qin Changxiao and others stood in front of the Questioning Heart Stairs and began to climb it.

The Heart-Questioning Steps are a famous trial ground of the Heavenly God Academy. Each step has a test of one's heart. Once a cultivator can pass all the Heart-Questioning Steps, their Dao heart is definitely the most steadfast and outstanding.

At this moment, Qin Changge and the others began to climb the Questioning Heart Stairs.

As they climbed the steps, everyone felt as if they were in an illusion, a world filled with all sorts of trials.

Upon entering the first level of this illusion, Qin Changge discovered a cliff with a bottomless abyss in front of it. If he recklessly stepped across, he might fall to his death.

However, this was an illusion. Qin Changge stepped onto the first step with an air of nonchalance, and the test of the cliff was over.

Qin Changge arrived at the second level of the Questioning Heart Staircase, where a stunningly beautiful woman stood before him, exuding irresistible charm.

Qin Changge remained unmoved. He had encountered this test before in Purgatory, and the opponent's lineup was even more impressive, yet it was still ineffective against Qin Changge.

Qin Changge stepped onto the third stage.

The test was far too easy for Qin Changge, a Grand Dharma King at the peak of the Great Luo Realm.

At this moment, a large number of people had gathered in front of the Heavenly God Academy's Questioning Steps, including both teachers and students.

They were naturally aware of the power of the Heart-Questioning Steps, and were curious about why so many of Qin Changge and his group were challenging them together.

"so fast!"

"How did they climb to such a high position so quickly?"

At this moment, the students of Tianshen Academy couldn't help but discuss among themselves, as Qin Changge and his group were climbing the Questioning Heart Stairs at an extremely fast pace.

"Who's that person in the lead? How did they get to the seventeenth step?"

"That's outrageous! Look how young he is."

At this moment, an elder of the academy explained:

"The leader is already at the peak of the Great Luo Realm, the one with the highest cultivation among these people. It's not surprising that he was able to climb so fast and so high; he has excellent aptitude."

Everyone who looked at Qin Changge realized that Qin Changge's talent and aptitude were exceptional, and probably few in their Heavenly God Academy could compare to him.

"The last time I saw someone move this fast was Qin Chang'an, right? By the way, where did Qin Chang'an go? I haven't heard his name lately."

Many students from the Heavenly God Academy were discussing it.

The elders of the Heavenly God Academy immediately shouted, "No talking about Qin Chang'an!"

Upon hearing this, many students from the Heavenly God Academy immediately shut up, and then became even more suspicious. What exactly was wrong with Qin Chang'an?
Why are all the teachers so secretive?
At this moment, Zou Tianyan, an elder of the Heavenly God Academy, looked at Qin Changge, who was walking briskly on the Questioning Heart Steps, and couldn't help but rub his temples.

How come Qin Changge is so amazing?

They can climb the Steps of Inquiry so quickly!
It's important to understand that cultivation level is not necessarily equivalent to Dao heart. It's quite common for many Great Dharma Kings at the peak of the Great Luo Realm to fall down halfway up the Questioning Heart Steps!
Because the "Questioning the Heart" stage represents spirit, will, and psychology, which is the most difficult part.

The next moment, Qin Changge had already reached the ninetieth step.

As expected, Qin Changge will break through to the hundredth step of the Heart-Questioning Rank and successfully pass the test. At that time, Zou Tianyan will need to tell Qin Changge the truth.

Zou Tianyan thought for a moment, then made hand seals and tampered with the Questioning Heart Steps.

Many teachers, elders, and students stared wide-eyed at the sight, finding it hard to believe!
"What is Elder Zou doing? Isn't that cheating?" a student couldn't help but exclaim, but the next moment he was locked onto by a gaze and was so frightened that he spat out a mouthful of blood. The student immediately ran away as if his pants were wet.

Clearly, Zou Tianyan was cheating, and he didn't want anyone to say anything.

Zou Tianyan used his authority over the Heart-Questioning Stage to raise Qin Changge's difficulty to the highest level.

Qin Changge moved swiftly through the illusion, but the next moment, he found himself on the last step of the Questioning Heart Staircase.

Qin Changge smiled and was about to turn around when he realized something was wrong. The people here seemed normal, but Qin Changge sensed that they were fake.

Qin Changge immediately saw through the conspiracy of the Heart-Questioning Steps. Instead of turning around or leaving, he continued to climb the Heart-Questioning Steps.

Even though he had reached the last step, Qin Changge had already decided to climb the next step, so he did.

"I almost got scammed."

Qin Changge frowned. This trial of the Heart-Questioning Steps was completely different from the previous trials. This trial of the Heart-Questioning Steps was more like a deception than a test.

Is this really a test?

Qin Changge had some doubts, but he didn't take them to heart. He just needed to keep walking like this and keep passing through the Questioning Heart Steps.

Soon, Qin Changge passed the hundredth step of the Questioning Heart Staircase.

"It really passed!"

"My God! He broke our record for the fastest completion time in the Questioning Heart Staircase."

At this moment, many students exclaimed in surprise. What was even more surprising was that Zou Tianyan had clearly cheated, so why was Qin Changge still able to pass?
At this moment, Zou Tianyan was also somewhat troubled.

Qin Changge looked at his other brothers. Qin Changqing had reached the eightieth step and couldn't go any further!

Qin Changle, Qin Changxiao, and the others couldn't climb up the seventieth step.

Qin Changge shouted, "I've passed, everyone wake up."

Upon hearing this, Qin Changqing, Qin Changxiao, Qin Changle, and the others breathed a sigh of relief, stopped insisting, and then left from the Questioning Heart Steps.

They had been unwilling to give up because they didn't want to lose the opportunity, but now that Qin Changge had passed, they no longer needed to persist, since such persistence was actually meaningless.

Qin Changge, Qin Changqing, and the others clasped their hands in greeting to Zou Tianyan.

"We have passed the test of the Heart-Questioning Steps. Please tell us, senior, where has Qin Chang'an gone?"

Upon hearing this, Zou Tianyan suddenly laughed and said:
"Aren't you celebrating too soon?"

“As I said before, you must pass through the Questioning Steps and the Azure Cloud Ladder before I will tell you Qin Chang’an’s whereabouts. Now you have only passed through the Questioning Steps, what right do you have to ask me about Qin Chang’an’s whereabouts?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Changge and the others' expressions changed.

"Was Zou Tianyan referring to the Questioning Heart Steps and the Azure Cloud Ladder earlier? Wasn't it just the Questioning Heart Steps?"

Qin Changle clenched his fist and said, "Are you trying to cheat me?"

Qin Changge and Qin Changqing both stopped Qin Changle.

Qin Changge said, "May I ask this senior, if we pass through the Azure Cloud Ladder again, will you definitely tell us Qin Chang'an's whereabouts?"

He said it very loudly, and everyone present heard it.

Zou Tianyan, an elder of the Heavenly God Academy, sighed and then nodded, saying, "That's right. As long as you can get through the Azure Cloud Ladder, I will definitely tell you Qin Chang'an's whereabouts."

"it is good."

Qin Changge nodded.

I was tricked by Zou Tianyan once before, but he won't be able to cheat next time.

Many students from the Heavenly God Academy present were surprised by this scene, wondering if something was amiss.

However, many people are more concerned about Qin Changge and his group's challenge of the Azure Cloud Ladder.

"The Azure Cloud Ladder is different from the Questioning Heart Ladder. The Azure Cloud Ladder requires real combat and tests combat strength. If your combat strength is not up to par, you cannot pass through the Azure Cloud Ladder."

"The Azure Cloud Ladder is even more difficult than the Heart-Questioning Steps. Can these people handle it?" (End of Chapter)
